M. Miedell to the Louisville Herald. “Well, that is an easy question, known to all ven ders of the article. . “It chanced that in 1854 the journey from New Orleans to New York was a considerable trip. A certain lady— Mrs. Albert Cashinger—determined to make the trip with her sick infant. “Mrs. Casninger’s baby was soo ill that she realized that it would be necessary to make a trip to New York to receive expert medical attention if she hoped to save the child's life. But to travel that long distance the child ‘had to have milk. Milk wouldn’t keep fresh more than a few hours. So there she was, kept back from making the trip merely because she -could not supply the child with fresh ‘milk. ; “Im her despair she bagan to experi ment to see if she could not preserve ‘milk the same as she did jelly or anything else. Bhe hit upon a plan which seemed to give satizsfaction. So she preserved several big jars of the ‘stuff, put it upon a sailing vessel and made the trip. The child fed upon the milk and was nourished. “In New York several men iearned of her discovery. They tried to make some of the condensed milk in the manner she had told them, but failed. They followed her to New Orleans and there she unwittingly unfolded her valuable secret. On the island of Galveston these men started a smail factory and there the first salable condensed milk was made. “The woman ied poor. The manu facturers made a fortune. Now con densed milk is sold in every part of the world, . THE FUTURE OF DRESS. As women advaace in the scale of progress, will they leave the love of dress behind? Fifty-odd years ago, when the first women’s rights conven tions met in. New England, this did not seem a debatable question. Short hair and bloomers characterized the feminine champions c¢f the cause. Dress was proclaimed as one of the vanities from which the sex was to be emancipated. But fifty years have passed; and now Miss Susan B. An thony, in her gracious and serene old age, wears point lace, like any other woman fortunate enough to possess it. The leader of a suffrage convea tion and those of a whist club could be shaken up together nowadays, and no one would know which was which, as far as their clothes were concerned. The advanced woman no longer cuts her hair short, and the speaker at a woman’'s club is often the most dain tily gowned woman in the room. The dress of the future will follow the conditions of the future woman. It is prettier and daintier to-day than it ever was, and as long as women con tinue pretty and dainty there is little fear that the graces of costume will vanish. It would be a graver world if they did. Dress reform always has a field. But when it is a reform against nature, no one need worry lest it should succeed. Dress is safe in the hands of the women of to-day, and ought to be safer =siill in the hands of the women of to-morrow. The alarmist has small cause for fear on that score.—Harper's Bazar. FOR A REAL FACE WASH. How many women ever wash their faces? How many even know how? For the application of soap and water does not cleanse the pores of the skin, 1t only takes off the outside dirt, and the pores are left just as they were before the soap and water were used. To make the skin beauti ful and fresh, to remave the blem ' ishes, is easily done by really washing the face. To do this, have a supply ®f boiling Lot water, some icy cold ‘Water, ,cfeam for the skin, and two ‘towels, one scft. Put the soft one in the hot water, and then spread it over the face; raspeat this, until the skin feels as if it had been parboiled. Quickly app'y the cream, rub in thor loug’hly with the tips of the fingers, then wipe off the cream and again ’apply the hot towel. Without stop ping a momeut place the towel dipped 'in the cold water on the face, and do this until the skin tingles. Dry the 'face, and you may be sure that yvour face. is washad, if it never has been \before. To prevent any ctepping, ‘rub cold cream lightly over the skin ‘and apply a liftle powder to keep ‘away the shino that would follow the ‘use of the creatn. If the face is wash ed this way t#m or three times a week it wiil always be fresh and young looking.—New York Press. | as - FASHION’S NEW DEPARTURES. ~ Tan colored linen, with a touch of sky blue, will be seen a good deal at ounr gay rasorts this year, and a good many new shades are likely to come to the fore, for chey ‘have not only been intrecduced, % it they have caught on our variable minds. The ripe apri cot, the dsep raspberry pink, the spinach green and the coffee brown, net unlike burnt kread, are second to none in general appreciation. Some of the stuifs are coverad ali over with pendant balis in marked conirast, and a lattice work of velvet and ribbon mot only forms trimmings on sKkirts, but heads the high and low bodices a jour, and the sleeves are as:various as the days of the year, but they must be large; straps of the same velvet or ribbon carried across the shoulders seem to keep the bodice in place. Tucks arpear upon the hem, from one to two inches deep, and are set cross ways on the hips to the depth of an eighth of an inch. The bodices are more bloused than ever, but a good figure is not thrown away, and the materials adjust themszlves closely to the waist at the back.—The Queen. WOMEN AFTER MIDDLE AGE. After midle age the average woman begins to care more for women than she does for men. Her allegiance un dargoes’ a paychic change, her eyes are opened, her judgment cleared, and she learns to appreciate her sex fully. The characteristics that seemed to her hateful frailitiq" long ago are de fended now as their poetic distine tions, says Tlre Independent. She sees in every girl the fair mir age of her own youth; in the pathetic, careworn face of th eyoulg mairon the gentle heroism of other years; in the mother of a grown .family her own queen days when sohs and daughters suddenly grew tall and proclaimed her. And “for them all she has a chastened affinity. Men have passed out of her calculaticns. They are the things with whom ghe failed or succeeded, from lover and husband down to her youngest son. And, however much she remains de pendent upon them, she is no longer reiated to them in the same way. She has survived them and returned to her own. THE CAMERA AT COURT. The Queen has long been famous as an amateur photographer., But she is by no mecans the only member of the royal family who is a devotee of tbe camera. Ti#e Princess of Wales has a large collection of photographs taken by herself, many of them at Sandringham. Princess Victoria, Prin cess Beatrice, the Duches of Fife—all these go in largely for amateur pho tography. At Sandringham a dark room has been fitted up, and some at least of the Queen's own picturaes are dcveloped at home, WOMEN AS EXPERT MARINERS. In some coast villages among the Danes, Norwegians and Finns women are employed as sailors and prova themselves to be expert mariners. I the smaller sailing ships, where there is a woman on board, whether she be the wife of the skipper or the stew ardess, she is expected to take her turn at the ordinary work of the sail cr, not even excluding the duties of the man at the wheel or of the night watch. Denmark employs several women as state officials at sea. EXx parienced captains assert that the women make exceilent sailors, and ‘are equal to most seamen in dexierity 'and power of endurance.—Londcn !World, . ' WOULD YOU BE SVELTE? ’ The “health” craze, which has been started of late years by the insistent demands of hygiene and the discon certing discoveries of scientific and medical men, now iacludes a new “cure” for the matron with a. enden ¢y to embonpoint. This is nothing less than a daily practice of the an cient art of “‘skipping.” Every morn ing the lady who values her personal appearance must take her skipping rope and soiemnly jump the aliotted number of times, breathing slowly and regulariy as she goes through the performance. The girl still in the nurzery and schioolroom is also being encouraged to revert to this old fash ioned amusement, which “has bheen found to be benciicial in every way to the health.” And yet, when we who are yet on the sunny side of thirty, look back 'we can recall that rope skipping was often condemned, when we were chil dren, because it was so bad for tue heart! FASHION HINTS. Deep ruffles of lace, Hamburg or the material finish many cf the thin waists. These are some tiree or moie inches wide, set on at the lower edge of a deep yoke, and carried over the itops of the sleeves. . ~ Lawn petticoats in pink and blue, with deep ruffles, trimmed with lace, are a feature of the shops, aad are delightful for ‘wear under summer ‘gowns of the same shade. A lovely quilt for the baby’s bassi net is of pink India silk, eiderdown filled, quilted in a diamond patteia, and the wide pink ruffle is edged with lace,. 1 Silk mull is one of the most popular of the medium priced summer gtuifs. Throat chains of gil* beads are hav ing guite a vogue. Black chiffon taffeta walking suits, with instep leagth skirtg, are in great favor for afternocon wear. Tricornes and turbans are the sma:t shapes. There was never a greater variety of fine straws. Straw draperies are durable for ser. viceable hats. The fine siraws, are mostliy so plia ble that one may actually rell the untrimmed chapeau. If there’s .any shape into which straw caanot be tortured it does not now suggest itzalf, 21,600 Miles on Foot. There is now on his way from the Balkzns region to Genoa a remark able globe trotter.
