In the spring after a winter's wearing many ladies find their fine old laces in a deplorable condition and much of it is thrown aside never to be used again. This is wrong, for if one does not wish to take it to a renovating establishment it is an easy matter, if care is taken, to clean very fine lace at home. "If," says the Decorator and Furnisher, 14it is old and crazy pin it smooth on a flannel-covered board, saturate it with benzine and press it out with a soft napkin.

I was once blessed with an old Scotch servant whose rarebits were things to dream of and did not produce indigestion, writes a correspondent. Crumble a quarter of a pound of rich cheese (Cheshire is one of the best) into a sauce pan, add a teaspoonful each of sugar and mustard, and cover with rich milk. Stir until tbe cheese is thoroughly, melted, add the beaten yolk ot an egg and pour over slices of toasted bread. She sometimes served it with pulled bread instead of toast. Pulled bread is made by taking an underdone loaf of bread from the oven, pulling it out in small, irregular-9haped pieces and then browning and finishing the cooking in the oven. This gives a very sweet, nutty bread. My old cook insisted that the real rarebit should have ale instead of milk, but being strong temperance people we preferred to use the milk, and vfipv delieioii3 we found tho dish.?

"Eleached and blondined hair is rapidly growing out of style," said Miehael Galvin, the owner of a prominent hairdressing establishment in Cincinnati, "and women who have had their originally dark locks dyed to that wretched washed out tint like an over-worked doormat or brightened into a brasy hue that deceived no one but themselves, are now hastening the return to the original color nature intended they should wear, and allowing it by a natural process to resume its former hue. The blondrning of the hair was all the fad a few years ago, and even to-day if I was home in Cincinnati I would not speak discouragingly of it, as it is a business from which we have all made lots of money, but as a ( UlOiUtT U1 itttt lb ID a muug uuiw-u vuguv to be remedied.?St. Loui* Btar-Sayings. THE FAD OP WEARING BLACK. The fashionable fad of wearing black has been given the word "go." It is only about a year ago that women were considered always 6tylishly dressed in black. It was rich, delicate, durable, unfading, all that women desire. But the shopkeepers and storekeepers, who found that it was just the color for their female employes, knocked the fashionable stamp off it. As a fact, block fabrics are about as cheap as anything poor people can buy, because they are generally durable. The woman who is dressed in black, with white linen collar and cu2s, looks the perfection of neatness, and from the purely aesthetic standpoint employers of female help did a good thing when they began to. inaugurate black as an article of attire among them. But fashion is so fastidious that the women of Murray Hill will don nothing that is the custom of their humbler sisters behind the counters or in the offices to wear, and black has been almost tabooed, except by reasonable and sensible ladies, who retain it in spite of fashion.?St. Louis Republic. dress op 16th century englishwomen. This description of the dress of Englishwomen in 1515 is taken by the San Francisco Examiner from a letter written by an attache of the Venetian Legation to a friend at home: 'Their usual vesture is a cloth petticoat over the shift, lined with gray squirrel or some other fur; over the petticoat they wear a long gown lined with some choice fur. The gentlewomen carry the train of their gowns under the arm; the commonalty pin it behind or before, or at one side. The sleeves of the gowns sit as close as possible, are long and unslashed throughout, the cufEs being lined with some choice fur. Their headgear is of various sorts of velvet, cap fashion, with lappets down behind over their shoulders like two hoods, and in front they have two others, lined with some other silk. Their hair is not seen, so it is not possible to see whether it be light or dark. Other? wear on their heads muslins, which are distended and hang on their backs, but not far down. Some draw their hair from under a kerchief and wear over their hair a cap, for the most part white, round and seemly. Others, again, wear a Kcrcniet in loias on their head; but, be the fashion as it may, the hair is never seen. The stockings are black, ond their 6hoes doubly soled, of various colors. When they meet friends in the Etrect they shake hands and kis3 on the mouth and go to some tavern to regale, their relatives not taking this amiss, as such is the custom. The women are very beautiful and good tempered." NEED EX TLICIT DIRECTIONS. Did you ever know a genuine Chinese woman of culture? There are a very few such women who are married to AngloSaxon husbands and have adopted AngloSaxon habits of thought, retaining enough of a spice of the "flowery kingdom" to be specially interesting. Such women seem to be possessed, however, in their work with the same mechanical kind of mind which is the characteristic of the male Chinese. They follow a rule friT^n irifh n fiilplifr anrl pv.mfnpae J - that n^ver fails to produce a uniform result. An amusing instance of this perfect fidelity to detail is thus related: A Chinese lady who had become thoroughly anglicized was given a recipe f<>r a new cake which she had asked for. She gazed at it critically. "It's an odd way of making cake," 6he murmured. "You don't give any directions for buttering the pan." "Of course, that is understood," was the amused answer. Unhappily, it is the Anglo-Saxon woman's habit to consider things understood'in cooking and to give directions in an indefinite manner, leaving half the rule to be presumed; and thi9 makes most cook books a failure. "My husband invited a friend to tea," said a young married lady recently, "and I wished to show what a good housekeeper I wus; so I tnnrln enmo ralrp T rJiH nrkf onv qnTrfVnnnr * ?? -?? ""J ""J .~b to the cook, as she was not too amiable over my intrusion; but I made the cake by myself,exactly according to the recipe, feeling certain that it would be better than Bridget's. The rule gave no directions for flour, so I did not put any in. The cake was a surprise to all of us." This story, which is literally true, goes to ehow how exceedingly ignorant a young housekeeper may be, and how necessary exact directions are.?New York Tribune. THE HAIR. A woman's crown of beauty is her soft and silky hair, and since conventionality requires that even the most beautiful tresses must be braided, looped and pinned against the head instead of flowing, as mature evidently intended they ehould, it is, indeed, essential that one should be skilful in their arrangement. There was never a time when the fashionable coiffure w^u at once so ' V . ' ~ "*~ natural, bo artistic, so beautiful, as at the present time, and, one might add,so hygienic, The fashionable fluffiness and Tightness of the mode depend entirely | upon absolute cleanliness and frequent i washing. That accomplished, the j coiffure is placed high, low, or midway, l just as is most becoming to the face. | The aim of the hairdresser is to preserve | as peifcctly as possible the contour of the j head if it be shapely, adding no absurd knobs or excrescences, but looping the soft, wavy locks, fold ou fold, as close to the head as possible. Young ladies part the hair through the centre, and, waving it on either side, braid it closely and flat against the he.ad in the back. A very pretty French fashion consists in twisting the curly mass of hair into a soft knot at the back of the head, and placing a wreath of violets from the bang around the head. Women with beautiful features and classic heads affect an extremely simple style of hairdressing, and bind the head fthrmfc Trif.h the Grecian fillet of ribbon. The ribbon is placed over a flat kind of wire, which bends to the shape of the head and holds it in place. A rather fantastic Spanish coiffure is very becoming to dark beauties, and has a chain of pearls twisted among its coils. The catogan style of hairdressing promises to be well worn as the season advances. The coiffure will not fall so far down on the neck when high dresses are worn, but the soft loops and curled ends of hair will droop toward the nape of the neck and covered with an invisible net. Jeweled nets, so popular when the mations of to-day were maidens, and other curious ornaments of the same date are beine revived for the belles of to day. The use <jf a moderately hot curling iron is not deprecated by hairdressers, but, on the contrary, is beneficial to the growth of the hair. A small amount of hair lightly waved and pinned in place with shell or gold pins makes a much more attractive arrangement than the quantities of false hair appropriated from some other head tbat was formerly used. The pretty daintiness of women is displayed in their fastidious care of their locks, which are perfumed and scented with with a faint but fascinating fragrance. The perfume should be carefully used at some distance from the roots of the hairv or disastrous results may follow. Still there never was a , sweet, right-minded woman who didn't I nnf. nprfnme on hp.r hair whenever she ! liked, and where are the baldheaded women to prove the assertion??Neva York Sun. FASHION NOTES. Ribbons are very extensively used on house and street costumes. Some of the new evening dresses are deluged with lace. Jeweled nets will be much worn in the way of draperies this season. Decorative hairpins appear to be necessities of the modern style of dressing the hair. Tight lacing was never carried to such agoniziDg and ridiculous extremes as now. Stationery used by women of taste and good breeding is marked by its simplicity. A lady's purse of English manufacture is adorned in a corncr with a lucky sixpence. Parisian ladies are wearing dress skirts that fit the figure as closely as a coatsleeve fits the arm. Ia stripes the Bayadere is the horizontal stripe, the Pekin is a perpendicular or "lengthways" one. Turquoises enhance the whiteness of the hand, a good reason for their being such popular gems for finger rings. Quite a number of old perfumes undei new names are out, and the probabilities are they will in nowise be affected. For stout people, the riding habit is made with a round waist without the customary tiuy coat tails at the back. Many new designs and styles are seec in bonnet and lace pin3. Imitation articles are altogether out cf fashion now. Things that proclaim their cost, like diamonds, stiff silks, velvets and passe[ raenterie are not conducive to genteel dress. A fashionable limp is involuntarily produced by.wearing shoes too small. Anc how many women there are who seem to be lame? "Watch bracelets hold their own remarkably well. This is probably owing to the fact that they are so useful and convenient. It is the fashion to have as a breas! pin set in precious stones a miniatim portrait of your own or somebody else's grandmother. A display of jewelry of any kind with dress suit is "bad form," and what is worse is sticking the handkerchief in the waistcoat. Louis XIV. and XV. fashions and styles are on the bulletin for the coming season. French histories ought to be iD every household. The tea-gown is rapidly giving placf to the house dress, a closc-fitting robe, long, cut a la princesse, and draped perhaps a little in front. The shades of gray will be found in all parts of the costume; it is the color chosen above all others for the most elegant and refined dresses. Sentiment is against trained skirts foi the street. There is everything to be saic against and nothing in favor of?shall it be said?the slovenly fashion.

A?j described by Dr. Walter Sibley, in his paper in the British Association on "The Incubation of SerpeDts'Eggs," the first sign of the process of hatching is a slit, usually V-shaped, appearing at the highest part of the egg-shell, whether the egg is placed od its side or on one end. The snout of the young reptile appears at the crack. After a time the head is protruded, and often remains out of the shell for some hours before the body and the tail art- hatched. If disturbed, the head is again withdrawn into the shell. The author had seen fullyhatched young snakes return to their shells when alarmed. The young snakes, when first hatched, are smootn ana velvety to me toucn, with the yellow ring (of the common English snake) beautifully marked from the first, and the eyes open; but often there is some opacity about the cornea, which disappears in the course of a few hours. They are about six inches long and weigh about eighty grains. They begin to hiss in the first few days.?New York Journal. Fnneral of the Czar's Nurse. There was a remarkable scene in St. Petersburg the other day at the funeral of Miss Catherine Strutton, who was the nurse of the present Czar. The deceased lady was eighty-one years of age, and had been forcy-six years in the service of the imperial family. In fact, she died at the Winter Palace from which the funeral procession started. The weather was very bad and the streets were full of meltiug snow and mud, which made the walking particularly disagreeable. But in spite of all this and the attending discomfort, it is worthy of note that none of those who were expected to be preacnt failed to put in appearance. The White Czar himself, and the Grand Dukes Vladmir, Sergius and Paul, walked side by side behind the hearse which contained the old lady's coffin, wading knee deep in the slush to the English church. There the imperial party attended the funeral service, the Empercr sitting in the Ambassador's The Pathos of Ugliness. There is a small doubt as to how a majority of women of average good looks i would answer the following question: "Which would you rather be, regnant in the world of letters or art or gifted regally with a faultless beauty before which all men must thrill? It is more than likely that ninety homely women out of any hundred would in honesty prefer the power that goes with personal loveliness to that which goes with wealth, with the accident of lofty birth or with the rarest intellectual distinction. It was a Bhrewd observation of the late Dr. Holland that when we find a man or woman * i i i /* i _ / 3 I wno is ausoiuteiy nawiess in lorra ana feature we usually find a fool. "For a homely?even an ugly?man," he said,''I have no pity to 3pare. I never saw one so ugly yet that if he had brains and heart he could not find a beautiful woman sensible enough to marry him. But for the hopelessly plain and homely sisters? 'these tears I'" There is no pathos in human life so profound and universal as this?not upon battlefields, not in the wild, vain struggle of a soul adrift, seeking its God. The ugly woman is in every village in the world, living out tier little tragedy, in every worthy, womanly quality she may be likely to be the superior of her pretty sister; she is tender, she is meek, she is true. But men yield her a smug respect and turn to her sister with eyes of love. She has heart-hunger, and sometimes when she either does not possess gifts of mind or the strength to cultivate them she starves into that stolidity which appeals to one of gentle feeling as does the look of pain afloat in the eye of a faithful, wounded dog. It is worse still to see her slowly brutalized by an ingrate upon whom she has lavished a love that is next to the divine. It is love nxe hers, I indeed, that should be the proudest of the human race?so clean it is, so enduring, so wonderful in devotion and selfsacrifice; but it is love like hers, instead, that fills the world with sorrow, fills its asylums and its graves.?New York Mercury.
