|PP^ , HOUSEHOLD MATTEBS. HOW TO T1ASH FLANNELS. How to wash flannels so that they will cot shrink is something about which there is no end of discussion. Man; housekeepers entertain decided opinions s on this subject, aud are very tenacious of them, but they seem to rest for the most part on usage, and not on any basis of service or any given principle. tIiott ?-iiK fhm'r flannels nut in cold suds, and feel confident that they arc t right as to process and results. But some day they find that their garments have a stuffy smell, and are sort ol smooth and slippery like leather. Very soon they are worthless, and then there is wonder not that they are so, but as to who has washed them in other than the approved way, or what has happened ' to them. Others use hot suds and rinse in warm water, with a little blue, and wring as dry aa possible. One lady takes hours of time patting and pulling the garments until dry, and is worried and unhappj because they will shrink after all of her paias. "Wool fabric has little barbs like this > > . Of course, they are very small and delicate, but they crowd upon each other and crawl and mat in the most curious way. If you would know exactly how this is, cut off a lock of hair, turn half of it end for end, and put the two together, the ends exactly even. Place the lock across the palm of one hand, put the ? Via Uiuer llttuu Uvci it, auu m.\au lut u?uuc gently together lengthwise. After a moment the cut hairs will appear on either edge of the hand,- the movement having caused them to slide lengthwise apart. Wool is similarly constructed, and this i is one reason why rubbing is injurious to wool fabrics. But this Is by no mean9 all. If a dozen samples of flannel are washed in precisely the same way, there may be almost as many results as there are pieces. Much depends upon the quality of the wool and the condition of the animal from which it was taken. As no one can be expected to know about this, it fol lows that to do things in as nearly the common-sense way as possible is the onlj safe way, and then take a certain amount of risk. Unquestionably, the best process is tc use quite hot suds. This dissolves and removes certain particles of perspiration upon which cold water will have no effect. As sudden changes of temperature i are supposed to add to the chances ol shrinkage, it is well to rinse immediately in water of about the samo temperature, "? -1 u 1- - x al:. ana a uitie soap suouiu. ue put iu mis also. As wringing injures the flannels, they should be very gently pressed to remove the first suds, and then, after rinsing, be pinned out on lines without any wringing or pressing whatever. Flannels should never be ironed, especially i( damn. Take a bit of wet flannel and hold one edge of it over the steam of a boiling tea-kettle. It will shrivel up like leather. So hot irons on damp woolens will draw and crisp thetn until they are hopelessly shrunken and puckered up. Press belts, bands, facings or other silk or muslm parts, but tela ana smootn tnc garments and place a heavy weight ovei them. The feel of them is much more comfortable when worn without pressing, and they will last as long again.?2ieic Turk Ledger. RECIPES.

Add one tablespoonful of butter and the grated rind and juice of two lemons. It is then ready for use. Turkey Dressing Croquettes?There is bo much richncss and lasting material ! left over in the cold scraps from turkey dinners that at may as well be utilized for croquettes. Stir a beaten egg into the dressing, mold into oval shapes, dust with dread crumbs and fry. Any morsel of the fowl left over can be minced finely and added, taking some of the gravy or giblets to complete the rich dish.

I I HINTS ABOUT SKIRTS. i The present style of dress skirts looks > well on a sylph, but a stout figure is at a great disadvantage in a clinging skirt. I In gowns for mature wearers the straight i outlines should be softened by the intro: duction of a few folds in front or panel i at the side. Some of the new skirts are siit open on either side to reveal a glimpse ' of a silk petticoat in a contrasting color, i ?Brooklyn Citizen. I ' A UNIQUE ORNAMENT. A clever woman who found herself with a large, old-fashioned watch as an heirloom preserved the relic and evolved 1 a unique ornament for the mantelpiece. 1 She had it mounted as a miniature grand1 father's clock, made in every way like one of the tall ones seen in niches on the staircase or in the hall of most country houses. It was arranged so that it could be slipped in and out lor winding. Once ' in its place again, however, its white face gave no evidence that watch works, not clock works, were behind it. This may be an idea for somebody else.?New York Times. A HAT FOR BRUNETTES. To suit the rich coloring of a brunette | % is fashioned a French hat of coarse yellow straw lined with Chantilly, and a thin double roll of orange velvet. From a heavier roll of the velvet that encircles the crown falls a frill of fine Chantilly looped in places with nasturtiums in rich red and orange. At the back, where the flowers fall on the hair, the hat is heightened by lace which comes in strings to the frout. A toque is in bronze net thickly sprinkled with gold beads. There is no crown, only a drapery of net coming round each side to the front, where it is raised in a fan pleating. As a border is a band of gilt and broDze sequins, and the back is a cluster of dark-green velvet leaves.?New York, Post. LONG JACKETS ABE PROPER KOW. A Parisian fashion correspondent says abort jackets are set aside as quite out of date, and every woman who aims at being a la mode dons long ones. It is a matter of minor consequence whether they suit the wearer or not. Nothing less than three-quarters length is the mode save the short, full cavalier capes. These are in light tweed in bright red, ruby, fawn, gray and black, and are made with braided yokes and collars and are often trimmed with fringe about the bottom. Even rough traveling cloaks are no * cut the fashionable length, which reaches a little below the knees. Some of the light fawn and gray cloth cloaks have faceted jet wafers sewed on cround the edge in several rows at regular distances and also in allovcr designs on the I yoke and collar.? Chicago Herald. FASHIONS OP LOUIS XV. And what did they really wear in the reign of the Louis of whom one hears most,much as one heais of all the Louis? The fans were round and covered with feathers; they were hung from the girdle; the gloves were long and buttonless ; the shoes had pointed toes and high heels. Here is a pretty floral dress pre- | served in an old picture; the skirt is short and plain and has six festoons ot roses to circle it; the bodice is low and 1 pointed; the sleeves are silk above, muslin puffs from the elbows; the hair is powdered and turned over a cushion. A wreath is laid about the top of it, and from the wreath issue ostrich plumes. There were hoops; there were lace flounces; there were ribbons,powder and !, brocades; the embroideries were magnificent; the waists were long and pointed; the bodices opened in front and were laced across; long polonaise jackets were edged with ruches; many things, in fact, were as maDy thiDgsare now.?New York Recorder. GEMS FOR COMPLEXIONS. A wfimnn \chr> hrm a rprl taop will nnt. wear emeralds, says the Contemporary Beview, even if an arbitrary man milliner sends her home a dress that emeralds would embellish. ,, A woman with a poor complexion does not improve it by pearls. These lovely and innocuous ornaments really derive their chief luster from a transparent skin, as they dopend largely on reflected lights. The iridescent colors on pearls attract notice to the whiteness of a white ground, but on all ill-colored ground they are decidedly vindictive. A woman whose face, however beautiful, takes verdatres tints in the shadows, should avoid rubies, especially pink ones, and roseate topazes. A face may have these greenish tines without damage to beauty, remember. I am not selecting all the most uufortunate women I can think of to threaten and warn. .fcvery lace ua5 a great aeai ot greea in it, as a portrait-painter will tell you. Giotto (who painted the loveliest angels conceivable) and all his pupils made the shadows on girls' faces startlingly green, and the eyes green too sometimes, and yet we reccive the impression of exquisite delicacy and brilliancy. Still red is the complementary of green, aDd if the dress should be pink, and no help for it, the jewels nearer the face ought to counteract it. WOMEN AS INVENTORS. Statistics prepared for the centennial anniversary of the Patent Office prove that inventive genius has no sex. It will be encouraging to female wage workers to iearn that women inventors have made a record in the Patent Office of which they may well be proud. Application for patents of their own invention have been made by over 3000 women since the i ratent Uffice was orgamzea. These inventions, while covering & wide field of articles for women's use, include such unexpected inventions as submarine telescopes, processes for hardening copper foot stoves, refrigerators, and even locomotive driving wheels. As early as 1809 a patent was granted to Mary Kics, of Connecticut, l'or an improved method of straw weaving with silk or thread. Many patents were issued a few years after to women for improvements on corsets, foot stoves, spinning wheels, mocassins and ice cream freezers. During the war a great number of "women inventors came forward with many designs in canteens, military caps, ambulances, and all kinds of hospital appliances. Prior to the war the number of women applicants for patents was small. Only three patents to women * were issued in 1850; in 1800 there were only four, in 1870 there were sixty, in 1880, ninety. In 1887 the number rose to 187, and has been increasing steadily ever since. The inventions of the women compare well with those of the mea in usefulness and ingenuity. The most profitable inventions of women are those of costumes and clothing and artistic designs of wall paper and decorated china ware.?Neu York Telegram. a bcsrxess woman's costume. The question of a "business woman's costume" strikes most women, business or otherwise, as absurd. To begin with, it is doubtful if more than a very few U nTAmfln wnnld cora tn (idont, a I UUdlUUOO ?UU1VU MWUIU VN4W ?V M distinctive attire of any sort beyond that which denotes their sex. To go about uniformed proclaiming her occupation would be highly distasteful to almost every woman. On the other hand, however the modified suggestion that every feminine "wardrobe should contain a walking gown or costume made on healthful lines and calculated to stand incessant wear meets with favor. Let its general principles perhaps be the same and trust to each wearer to give it the needed touch of individuality. And the matter hardly seems to need the con- i sideration of a national council. The writer recently watchod a young woman employed as ticket seller in an elevated station in Brooklyn finish her preparations to go on duty. A pair of stout walking boots stood just inside the door of her tiny compartment, and as she mounted the stool to begin work the observer could see that lighter and worneasy shoes -were on the girl's feet. She had put on a black cambric apron to protect her dress and had drawn over one arm a black cambric half-sleeve for the same purpose. An old glove, with fingers cut off, was fitted on the hand which had to slide out the tickets and change, because, as she was good enough to explain, the friction wore her skin. Her hair was done low and comfortably, and a little cloth cap kept draughts from her head, while a cardigan jacket performed a similar office for chest and back. That business woman, the observer felt, had gauged her needs pretty accurately.? New York Timts. FA8HI0N NOTES. India silks with a satin finish are imported. Pepper colored cloth is the newest for street trowns. The panier is being revived in Paris for some of the new gowns. "Anything in the why of crepe sells," is the verdict of the retailers. Doubled-faced satin ribbons are still seen on some elegant headgear. Foulards, grenadines and crepons will be made with paniers this summer. The striped surahs, wash silks commonly called, are selling very well. Wash crepe is a mixed silk and cotton fabric, retailing at seventy-five cents. Cloth is not much used for dress, serge and cheviots having taken their places. Some of the new stuffs for dresses have shinning white crystal beads woven in them. Gray, mastic, navy blue and flame color are the predominating shades this season. The black Indias having mauve designs in single flowers or sprays are good sellers. Satin stripes broken by a small brocade arc stylish in light, but not evening, shades. Wool surah, a new dress fabric, is almost as light and delicate as the silken material. To be in fashion in Paris the hair has to be worn in wavy undulation at the Bide of the face. To be quite fashionable now one must wear a string of pearls morning, noon, ocpninnr and nitrhfc. b o Pet cats are often adorned with bangles; eight or ten of these hoops have sometimes been 9een on one cat. Veils are worn to cover the chin/ Every girl with or without a good complexion wears one at this time of the year. ' EfLir stripe batiste comes in a mixtur# of wool and cotton, but only in white' grounds, with the narrow stripes about an eighth of an inch apart. In drab camel's hair is a traveling cloak, with revers of fox fur. The lin ing is old gold satin, and the only decorations are handsome frog buttons on the front. Jeweled buttons of high price are imported this season to be used on the corsages that are garniturcd with the increasingly popular gem-set dress trimmings. Short, round cloaks in silver giay cloth are trimmed at the edges and upon the shoulders with effective trefoils of velvet, appliqued with silk along the points. A beau: if .il wash goods, which was among the novelties last season, is a linen batiste, sometimes called gazine. It is seen in plain colors and in large and small stripes. Slight draperies appear upon the latest sheath dress-skirts from over the sea, and a strong reaction has begun against the too plain, too clinging French skirt of the past season. Lace is tbe prevailing trimming of the day. It is seen upon toques, it forms the basis of tiny mulls, it adorns glove tops and is used tor flounces upon the skirts and bodices of street dresses. India is the name of anew street shade in silk aud wool fabrics. It is a tint between a crimson dahlia and a deep plum color, and it is becoming to women both fair and dark. Gloves are imported in shades to match this color. Among the dress-models for summer is one from a London designer made of flower-striped black silk grenadine, the flower devices in fine-cut jet. The gown i3 trimmed with quantities of very beautiful black silk Calais lace, with 1 f 4 /* i ! t_ ,1 A."\ 1 rucncs 01 new taiieia siut aiiu me iuce. Pale willow green with gold or with silver (the tint of that seen on the reverse side ox the silver maple-leaf), appears in combination on some exceptionally beautiful dresses of Pompadour brocade. A ylint of the softest, mogt delicate mauve shows in the changeable background. Mytle-green camel's hair is combined with various furs, looking remarkably well with each and every one. It is extremly stylish with black astrakhan, looking brighter by contrast. It combines excellently well with mink, which is always a stiff, unmanageable fur, and is in equal good taste with beaver. Transactions at the Stamp Exchange. In Paris there is a stamp 'exchange where transactions are carried on from 2 to 7 o'clock of every Thursday and Sunday. It is the Champs Elysees, tinder the chestnut trees at the corner of the Avenue Mangny and the Avenue Gabriel, just behind the Guignols and in front of an aristocratic mansion inhabited by one of the Rothschilds. By 3 o'clock the exchange is in full go, and all ages and all conditions of society are repre sented. There is very little trading carried on at this petite bourse, most of the transactions being buying and selling. Men and boys, wearing sachels slung by a strap over their shoulder, and in which postage stamps are piled like coins in the scrips of cashicrs, shout what they have to sell, their albums are looked through, philatelistic papers read, discussions held and bartering taxes place amid lively vociferations. "I have sixty blue Kopecks,''"Who wants any 1872 Uruguays?" 4'I will take 1873 Ceylons at thirty centimes." "I will sell 1862 Turks, paper peelings." "Who'll take 1866 Perus at forty centimes?" "I want 1849 presidents." "I have an emperor with laurel and an emperor without laurel." "How much for Columbians?" "Who wants Cape of Good Hopes?" "Here are 1500 for twenty-five centtimes," a fellow cries. "Show them," others shout, and then it is his turn to detail the merchandise. Packets of ordinary stamps are usually sold, without being opened, but sometimes the buyer unseals the envelope,then cries: "Thief! blackguard! old cheat!" and the crowd laughs heartily.?Chicago Herald. Florida Phosphate Beds. uThe phosphate beds of Florida have since their discovery about one year ago given employment to thirty-two millions of capital. And," continued CouimissioDer R. Turnbull, a guest of the Palmer House from that State, "many more millions will be invested there before the close of the present year. Moreover, good, substantial returns are being had on the money. Phosphate mining i3 not like gold and silver mining?you don't have to spend thousards of dollars before you learn where there is anything in the ground worth digging for. The phosphate lies in flat beds, the top of which is only a few feet under ground, and one man can in a short time figure pretty close to the actual amount of phosphate obtainable from any particular plot of ground. So that an investor can put in his money and be sure of getting it and something beside back. That is the kind of a State Florida is."?Chicajo Post.

Arnold Brinkworth, who owns, per haps, the finest private botanical collec tion in the country, and whose green Louses near Mount Sterling, Ky., an filled with the rarest and most delicati plants of all nations, is exhibiting witl much pride a specimen of the fleur d lune, the existence of which has oftei been doubted, but which was sent Mr. Brink worth a few months ago by a frienc residing near Obydos, Brazil. It wa obtained for him from an Indian, wh< found it growing in a swamp in th< depths of the Amazonian forests, and i the only specimen which has ever reache< this country alive. Those wno nav been favored by n glimpse of the curios 'tv say it is a delicate, tenacious vine covered -with small, glossy leaves of bright and very tender green, climbin; to a height of four or five feet, bearing here and there a milk-white blossom o a disk-like shape. When the moon is at its first quarte a distinct shadow or stain of a deep yel low, which seems rather in than out o the flower, and corresponding to th shape of the moon, makes its appearand on this disk, and grows as the plane does, until, when at its full size, th yellow stain covers the entire flower. A the moon begins to wane again this re treats in the same ratio, and finally dis appears altogether, to return once mor as the new moon is seen to come back When the planet sets the flower closes and does not unfold until the moo n ri on the following night. It pursues thi course month after month, whethe placed in the open air or kept in a hot house, though under the latter circum stances the yellow tint is much paler am more undecided, while the white surfac takes on a dinjgft . unhealthy tinge.
