FASHION NOTES.
The hlp-panier continues to grow in favor.
The rage for wine color has spread to
gloves and stockings.
Dark gloves and dark hosiery are worn
with very light costumes.
Veils have almost disappeared, under the
influence of shade hats and poke bonnets.
Brocade moire is the most fashionable and
elegant of incoming fabrics.
The corsages of some very handsome cos
tumes are laced up in front instead of but
toning.
A new novelty in parasols, is made of yel
low straw, of the same kind used in making
fans and “satin-straw" bonnets.
The newest French sleeve is wide and
straight, much hooped at the azmhole, with
out being gathered, and just below the
elbow, it is gathered into a band, edged
with a lace ruffle.
A pretty fall novelty hat, in yellowish
straw, has a falling cap crown of brown vel
vet, encircled by a graceful twist of brown
satin ribbon, with a bow on one side. The
brim is faced with brown velvet.
The fourreau dress promises to be one of
the most useful designs for autumn, for cloth
suits, as well as handsome indoor wear; and
lace plaited very full, is applied as length
wise insertions over a ruffled petticoat, and
also as full cascades, and jabot for the front.
Hair dressing for September, is indeed
very tasty, and becoming to most faces. For
evening, the coiffure is worn rather high on
the head, and little curls or frizzes extend
entirely around the edge of the hair, both on
the forehead and neck. The hair is waved
on the sides and top. A dainty flower nest
ling among the waves, is very pretty. It
adds to the entire appearance an attractive
ness that promises to be much admired.
Ornaments are also used.
Among the innovations of modern fashion,
one of the oldest is the wearing of velvet
throughout the summer. There is this season
an infinite variety of velvets—plain, open-
worked, plaided, striped, beaded, moired,
flowered, and a number of novel devices in
v dark Oriental colorings. The plain black
Lyons-velvet is, however, the roost favored.
The new English brand of velveteen, known
as the “Louis” silk-faced pile, is finding a
very large sale in America, as it is much
used for underskirts and for children’s
dresses.
Among tlie novelties in small wares are a
varied collection of rich colored beads styled
Venetian, which, though very pretty in
themselves, probably never hails from the
romantic shores of the Adriatic. These lit
tle barrel-like beads have curious figures
traced upon them, the mixed colors com-
binod in each necklace being well adapted to
the vari-colored costumes now so popularly
worn by young people. A single row of
beads is sufficient for a necklace. These
beads are held together by tiny chains of an.
tique silver. Necklaces to correspond with
the toilet are much worn, and as assorted
real gems are not always available nor desir
able even for general wear, the Ven'tian
beads enable people to follow the fashion
without much expense or fear of robbery.
' Uinta nnd Helps.
A spoonful of Paris green in a pail of
water is recommended for killinp canker
worms. It should not be sprinkled over
plants of which the leaves arc eaten—such
as lettuce, etc.
The cause of rancidity in butter is due to
the fact that the buttermilk or the water
used in washing the butter, as is the prac
tice-of some dairymen,- is not all worked
out—water in butter being a leading cause
of putrefaction. It never results, as some
seem to suppose, because it is not sufficiently
salted.
To Wash Cowman Daassas.—Take a piece
of yellow soap and cut it into bits; two
good handsful of bran, and about the same
of ivy leaves; boil It altogether, strain it
off, and then wash the dresses; rinse them
in cold water, and the color will be perma
nently fixed; they will only require being
washed once in this way. They should not
be hung in the air.
To Clean White Marble.—A large lump
of Spanish whiting must be soaked in water,
In which a piece of common washing soda
has been dissolved. The quantity of water
should only be just enough to moisten the
whiting. Take up some of the whiting now
become a paste, on a flannel, and rub the
marble well with it, leaving it on for a little
while, and repeating the process two or three
times, if necessary. Wash it all off with
soap and water, dry the marble well, and
afterwards polish it with a soft duster. A
little of the whiting thus moistend is most
useful for washing ornamental china, which
must be afterwards well rinsed in soapy
water, and will be found to have acquired a
very bright polish.
RECIPES.
Tobnip Slaw.—Pare and slice two not very
large turnips. Stand in cold water over
night. Drain and chop very flue. Prepare
same as cabbage slaw. In fact you can
scarcely tell but that it is cabbage. These
are tried recipes and are excellent. Please
try and report.
Potato Egos.—Make a mince as for ris
soles, but, instead of bred crumbs, use a
large supply of mashed potatoes, a little but
ter, and for mixing use the white as well as
the yolk of the eggs. Press the mixture
into the shape of eggs between two table
spoons, fry them a light brown; serve with
toasted bacon.
Pickled Onions.—Take some small onions
peel and throw them iuto a stew-pan of
boiling water, set them over the fire, and
let them remain till quite clear; them take
them out quickly and lay them between two
cloths to dry. Boil some vinegar with gin
ger and a whole pepper, and when cold pour
it over the onions in glass jars, and tie them
closely over.
Baked Rick.—One small cup of rice, one
quart of milk, one teaspoonful of salt, one
table spoonful of butter to be used in but
tering the pudding dish. Wash the rice in
two waters and put into the dish, add the
milk and salt and bake in a slow oven two
hours. It must swell and be a firm mass.
If it browns too fast cover until nearly done
and serve very hot. Two large spoonsful of
grated cheese are sometimes added.
Scalloped Potatoes.—Pare and slice as
many potatoes as you require for your fam
ily. Take a pudding dish, put a layer pota
toes, then butter, stjlt, pepper and flour, then
potatoes and so on until your potatoes are
all used; now pour cream over until it is
covered. There must be flour enough to
make thick. Cold meat chopped very fine
or a few slices of bacon will add to it very
much.
Charlotte-rcsse with Eaos.—Pour one
pint of milk over a half box of gelatine and
stand it in a pan of water over the fire until
it boils, then add the pelks of two eggs and
stir until it cools. Make a quart of cream
very sweet and flavor it with vanilla, and
add the glairs of two eggs which have been
beaten until they stand alone. Whip the
cream, and when the prepared custard is
cold, beat tj|€m together. Line a dish or
a mold witli lady fingers, or what is better
slices of home-made sponge cake, and pour
the mixture in and let it congeal.
Veal Loaf—Furnishes a good relish for
supper. Take two pounds of veal and chop
it very fine, about as if for mincemeat; two
coffee cups of fine bread crums, two eggs
well beaten, a teaspoonful of salt with black
pepper mixed with it, a little sifted sage, or
any other leaf you choose, and a lump of
butter to suit your taste. Beat these alto
gether in a chopping bowl, and put in an
earthen pudding-dish, well buttered; press
it down very hard. Bake in a hot oven for
an hour. Let it get perfectly cold before
you attempt to cut it; then it will be possi
ble to cut it in thin slices.
Watermelon Cake.—White part—Two
cups of white sugar, one of butter, one of
sweet milk, three and a half of flour, the
whites of eight eggs, two teaspoonsful of
cream tartar, one of soda dissolved in a lit
tle warm water. Red part—One cup of red
sugar, half a cup of butter, one-third of a
cup of sweet milk, two cups of flour, whites
of four eggs, teaspoonful of cream tartar,
half a teaspoonful of soda, one teacup of
raisins; be careful to keep the red part
around the tub or pan, and the white around
the edge. It requires two persons to fill the
pan. This is a very attractive and orna
mental cake.
—Am alia Jaioh.
Children who have a little money ought to
practice saving something. Many boys and
girls of to-day hardly know a higher use of
money that comes into their hands than
spending it for some foolish thing as quickly
os possible. To such, a lesson in self-denial
and economy is very important. As go the
boy’s pennies and dimes, so, very likely,
will go the man’s dollars and hundreds by
and by. Without having the spirit of a
miser, the person accustomed to save has
more pleasure in laying up than a spend
thrift ever knows.
The way to keep money is to earn It fairly
and honestly. Money so obtained is pretty sure
to abide with its possessor. Butmoney that
is inherited, or that in any way comes with
out a fair and just equivalent, is almost cer
tain to go as it came. The young man who
begins by saving a few dollars a month, and
thriftily increases bis store—every coin being
a representative of good, solid work, honestly
and manfully done—stands a better chance
to spend the last half of his life in affluence
and comfort than he who, in his haste to be
come rich, obtains money by dashing specu
lations, or the devious means which abound
in the foggy region lying between fair deal
ing and actual fraud. Among the wisest and
most thrifty men of wealth the current pro
verb is “money goes as it comes.” Let the
young make a note of this, and see that
their money comes fairly, that it may long
abide with them.
A great deal of heavy washing and wear
of bed clothes, can be prevented by basting
a width of calico across the end of the com
fort or quilt, intended for the head, forming
a wide binding which can easily be removed
to be washed.
To interest, without exciting—to instruct
without offending, to please without flatter
ing, to be cheerful yet grave, and humorous
without descending into buffoonery, are the
prime requisites of a public instructor.

After thoroughly testing this variety, usually
known as the “Bill Dallas Bust Proof Wheat,” we
unhesitatingly pronounce It the surest cropper yet
originated, having loatonly one crop In ten yean,
and that from the fly or some Insect, not rust. We
have never known It to rust. It It classed by mlllen
as a white wheat yielding first-class flour. It appears
to be a hybrid—a smooth-headed wheat with almost
Invariably some bearded beads cropping out amongit
It. The crop fust harvested shows the largest yield
of any variety In this section, the yields to far re
ported being from 21S to 30 bushels per acre.
