Of course the niadc-ovor curnnmta 'must -be dona at home or undor. personal' "supervision. liut even huro th ready-to-wear cos t times are Invnluuhle In th .way of Ideas, and suggestion,: And, after all. the ca.h sums, required to purchase voats and frock .ready t wear, though they may take a pretty slice out of one's wardrobe allowance, yet it baa been proved, over and over that the actual ost la lesa in the end for it la quite popatble tc ret a real tailor-made, reedy . to-put-on. at -one-half tha coat of an : ornerea gown, -i The tylwe shown In many of tha .moderate priced garments" ar equal to . th7excluetve costume turned out by the mint fashionable dressmaker. There ' ar In New York aeverai Irish-American no-called .'"Madame," who act. aa de ' signers for the large dry good houeea . and theif - work . in many waya cannot be . surpassed. Anton tba garments ahbwn there were aeverai attempts to revive the long sleeve., but thia, cannot be accomplished during - the warm weather. To be aura Madame Bernhardt ia lending; her air, having ordered for II her co-tumea long face' under leavea coming wall over tha hands, but . he majority of gowns and eoatumea on exhibition .were , made with elbow length. ' '- " ' ''. '-'' However, one charming afreet gown exhibited had solved the aleeva prob lem by making its bolero Jacket wttb - aleevea of -three-quarter reugth. They - had double turn-back caffs, the outer ruff being; in pique. . The aklrt had two ' double box-plaits both front and back, and near, tha hem there waa a wide stitched band which gave it the desired and necessary--flare. Tha deep wide Klrdle extended well up on the waist where It met 'the cunning1" little bolero. The edges of the coat were trimmed with bias folds of cloth and fancy but tons. A loner silk cravat passed through . tho front fastenlnga and . tied - In a f our-ln-hand. The material of thla practical-street gown waa of mixed worsted and waa a very safe Investment for the woman with a moderate Income. , There la aomethlng new In check ma terial, which waa used successfully In street' costume. It la called shadow check and la a mixture of silk and wool. In some lights its effect Is of the ordinary simple check. In other lights it has a pronounced checker-board ap pearance. . Thla effeot la obtained by the weave of the fabrlo 'and not by color combination. The material la so new. and uncommon that It Is some higher In price than' the. average dreas stuff It will attain and keep for tha present at least a certain supremacy as It cannot be found in cheep goods. Soma of tha thin veilings are made in anaaow check, but these must bt carefully used In coatumoa as the effect Is greatly enhanced or marred by tha lining used or tba foundation material selected. For ' instance, a v light gray ahadow Check yelling waa elegantly combined with as undereltp ' of , gunmetal silk. Another dreas of tha same light , gray was exquisite over shrimp pink. -. ' A navy blue bad a lining -of light blue, an apple green had Ivy green beneath. The trimmings blend in color with the foun dation material. Notwithstanding the vogtia of the princess and empire fash' ions, . which would . seem to do away with need for belts and belt buckles, the shops show great quantities and any number of new. stylea both In belts and. In separate bucklea to. bo worn with ribbon belts or those made of the material' of gown. Broad girdles are shown made of tha moat elaborate com bination of linen. flowered silk, em broiderer and . lace. There are also broad crush girdles of linen and leather embroidered and trimmed with lace. The newest Idea tn buckles presents combination of embroidery, metal and sc mUpreclous stones er paste Jew els, Others show the same designs with beads used Instead of the embroidery. These buckles are very remarkable and at the same time are really pretty. The bucklea are almost all large, being square,, oval or rectangular In - shape. Thry are made Of silver or nlckle. tha frame being, set with stones or made of cut steel. The center of tba buckle is formed of a large branch of solid embroidered flowers, but although tha embroidery ia solid tha flowers are) cut all around. The -buckle. -of course, has been -made for (his especial branch, and back of the flowers is a metal piece, to which tha flowers are' fas tened. A rhlnestone buckle had a spray of cherries used In. this fashion. Grapes. apricots, little apples, , currants and email peaches are also used. , . ., ADT IN COOKING POTATOES I VERT housekeeper thinks' sh MM. knows how tc). cook potatoes 1 j the food that- appears, of teneat " on the table. . Yet in how many . homes the potatoes. If plain boiled, are - ' "orgy, or. if fried, just aa undlgeatlble, greasy mass,- There are few house keepers who know how to select those that will bake best Or those that will make the beat salad. " Kor baking, mealy potatoes that are alwaya large, and for that reason look better when served than small ones, nhould be chosen, " Round, well matured ones. free from spots and specks, of course, are better than tha oblong va riety, says the Garden Magaslne. The Pointed ends of long potatoes remain hard snd soggy, wniie tne rounaea por tions are floury and well cooked, and for that reason round, varieties .make -the best bakers. . ; . - Many housewives complain thai when potatoes are about baked .the skins burst. To avoid this, when they are almost dona prick the outer coat gently to allow the . steam to, escape; and In this way keep the akin whole. Tha ideal potato for salads is hard and waxy, be ..cause It can ba cut Into thin slices.. V"- '"I With Skins JOm,.; iXkX. Boiled with the skins on, thesa vege ' table are mora nutritious than when cut and peeled, because . less - of the TTaiTb la dissolved by water when-be. ginning to cook for, as It gets warm, tha disagreeable, acid in tha skin is drawn. out-' of tba potato. After boiling briskly for about 2ft minutes the water should b drained off by shaking th .vegetables It a pan till, the akin is broken and tha steam comes out They should, then be placednear the firs fori AboutJPminutes witn a sort oiotn over the top to absorE-IHe steam.- Wien peeled the potatoes ara ready to be served on the table.' . , '' , Steamed potatoes are? better than boiled onea. In preparing in thla way the vegetable are not put In the water; . Instead they are placed la a ateamer , above tha pot containing tha water and . cooked entirely by tha steam.. By this method there is no danger of their burn ing or being overdone if the cook dooa not look at them for an hour. When thoroughly done they should ba treated Just as tha boiled' potatoes ara and sprinkled with salt before being served, . - rrled votatoaa. ', J r; ' . Fried potatoes ara leas ' easily di gested than food cooked In any other cooking, and next to frying the leaat wholesome. Is to peel, out in pieces and put in cold water, alowly bringing to a boil. - in this way tba water gets to the center of the potatoes and much of the starch Is dissolved and lost and they become aoggy because they have not been cooked dry. . To drop the pieces into boiling water as they touch the hot surface the gluten hardens and pre. vents tha water from getting near the starca, thus, keeping them from being mealy.' ; . . (... Baking potatoes la the beatway of all,-for . when tha skin is . removed and dry heat la used none of the nutrition is lost. , Boiling with tha skins on is next, and then sceamingv because these processes prevent less starch from being dissolved by the, water and the potatoes retain the flavor and texture that la lost whea tho skin ia removed. Those that have been overcooked or cooked so fast that, they have burst the sxins in tn water ana ror that reason are not desirable for table use need not be thrown-awaayfor they rsn ba mashed Into a dainty and palatable mass either by . putting them through a potato-rlcer or by beating them with two forks, the prongs joined together. . Choose potatoes to boll In rsgard to UJor Instance, one day they should be large or small, rarely large and mull pi Hi. - H,mt tnr hlLJ-- they are almost In shreds to get the large ones sufficiently tender to serve. If there is no other way. then the large onea should be boiled for from 10 to II minute before the smaller potatoes art put In tha water, ao that they will both be done at tha same time. . . ... . - OF INTEREST TO GTOLS USE has been' found for the lit tle odds and tend of ribbon , useless heretofore,'' yet- too ' pretty. to throw away. : They are now, used for tom-thumb sachet, which are Just the thing for birthday tokens, luncheon favor and for- pin ning -Into one' gown to impart a dell cat fragrance.

On teacher of much experience desired that th department of literature, music and art should be placed upon a higher grade and that the seal of compensation of thai teachers or these department ahould be greater than -those of tha manual train ing, domestic scienc and domestic art It seems rather astonishing that this recommendation should hav been mad, and It ia to be hoped It will not obtain, since perfection in manual training, do mestic scienc aad domestic art Is th foundation of the education and train ing of th pupil who attend publle schools, Therefor they , should b placed on the same plan as th accom plishments enumerated abov; which ar In no 'sense aa essential a th more practical andt Important department of would be atranga if th auggeatlon ' of elevating the' first-mentioned depart ment abov th latter more vital de partment should be considered favor ably by th committee, which la com. posed of representatives of tha neonle.

Hence, too much impor tance cannot be given to manual train ing, domestic scienc and domestic art, because children who go through these departmenta successfully are better pre pared to b horaomaker and homakeep ers, and ar destined to hav much In fluent over their own and th next suc ceeding generation.
