DECORATIVE ART.
The feminine world, or those who aro able
to command time, leisure and money, aro now
crazy over the various kinds of handiwork
all included under the title of Decorative Art
Painting in wator color oil satin or silk then
there is embroidery of all sorts, kinds and
styles on goods of expensive kinds, and also
of goo. Is that are iu the reach of ordinary peo
ple. All of this is intended for housu decora
tion) a revival of the old-fashioned way in
which ladies in ollcn times used to employ
their leisure. Everything is copied now from
the time of our grandmothers! old fashions are
being revised; garrets are being ransacked for
old china and old furniture. The mania for
needle work is sensible in that it gives tl.eso
fashiooablu women something to do, that not
only employs the hands, but gives play to the
mind and taste. Very much of this fashion
able fancy work is within the means of all of
us. As the material used is reasonable and
easily procured, we cannot instruct our read
ers intelligently in so little space ; but " Har
per's Ilazar" has many excellent designs, and
we would advise our friends to club together
and get this magazine, as it also has the best
and most common tensed hints and descrip
tions of styles iu dressmaking with excellent
patterns that can bo traced snd cut out with a
little care. A home is benef.ted with those
articles of handiwork; be.ides giving the
workers a chance to develop a taste for art.
Knitting and crocheting coma under this
head, and we are glad to find that some have
used our last directions in this line. If we
find it acceptable, we will endeavor to give
such ideas as we can within our little space
much taste can be displayed in curtains and
lamberrjuins for windows. Tho drapery across
the top is called lambenjuius, and is often
dow made of colored cotton flanuel, which
now comes in all colors; it hangs gracefully
and is very pretty in red, ttimmed with a
band of old gold of the same goods. It costs
but little, and is really quite handsome. It is
cut with some fullness tho goods hanging
lower at the ends, being cut in wide deep
scallops or in cloth can be made very beauti
ful by cutting out; those beautiful, large, gay
flowers and figures to be found in a heavy kind
of cotton goods, called "cretonne." Those
flowers are cut carefully, and then basted in
the comers and center squares as taste may
dictate. We would be glad to send patterns to
any one who does not catch the idea. The
drapery next tho window may be of lace or
muslin. Table spreads, of a square of double,
lades neatly, after which the edge are "button-hole"
stretched into the goods, with a
coarse embroider) silk, which comes shaded.
A great deal of taste is displayed pn some of
these tabl sj reads, and with little expense,
too, the spreads for standi are made long
more like a scarf -and are included only in
tho ends; arc often inndo of common linen
clash, tlio ends hcrti fringed oiil'nnd tied and
knotted prettily. Ittissiau toweling is used ns
the basis for tidies, spreads, etc. Tidies nre now
mndu very largo, sons to butttr protect tho
chairs. Ho suro and pin them on, tight with
safety pins, for we do dislike to keep picking
up the tidies nud putting iu place, mid how ag
gravated the gentlemen are to find them cling
ing to their shoulders continually.
BREAKFABT
O, how many times havo wc huiuidly got
up In tho morning n little, belated, and, while
making our hasty'toilet, spoko aloud without
thinking "what shall I get for breakfast."
Sumo thoughtful man has said of women
that they must havo tho tactics of it general
to lie nble to marshal out Unco t'lnes, llli.'i
meals, Iu tho com no of n year, he-ides training
tho infantry. Hu was right, but to mi sub
ject. Come what 'ill if the heavens fall break
fast must Ik! gut nud that's quick, too. It's n
n good plan to havo n'supply of cold potatoes
on hand, for they m o one of thu staples, mid
nro quickly warmed up. " J'ccl and slluo cold
potatoes, first putting in the pari some butter
or nice frying rover, but do.not let them fry
but n triilc. Just lieforo taklnp up, break iu
four or li'vo eggs, stir quickly, not letting tho
egg get too much cooked, nml tako up Ininio
dintely into a hot dis'i to the taffe. If there
is no meit, this dish will tako thu place of it
to romo extent. A littlo cold chopped ham I
good; added to it. Wo hink at our house that
thoso "made dishes" of cold scraps left from
dinner is better than if cooked out of "whole
cloth." If the bread is dry, or only medium
good, havo two pans on tho stove, so as to fry
quick and put sweet drippings or butter in tho
pans; then dip slices of tho bread, cut rather
thick into milk and fry. It is quickly done,
and must be turned before it scorches. It
takes plenty of butter, but it is very nice; wa
ter may be used instead of milk, or if a couple
Of eggs is beaten in the milk it is better still.
This is easier made than toast, and is hartier
for tho workiugmen. Cold bacon or ham cut
into slicu with cold potatoes fried brown, with
a few eggs broken iu at the last moment, is a
dish handy and quickly got up.
Oatsncal mush is almost indispensable nt the
breakfast table, new or dry. Hut iu a farmer's
family it must be cooked somewhat tho day
before, for It, needs long, thorough cooking to
bu healthy and palatable. It is most excellent
fried when there is any "leftover," it would
bo superfluous to say that fried corn meal mush
was nice, for that old-fashioned dish when
nicely browned, with plenty of muplo syrup
on it, is just splendid. Codfish, if soaked over
right, makes a nico breakfast dish when pick
rd (lno. With a quantity of milk, Hour and
ezgs, poured over slices of bread; the fish
when mixed with potatoes and fried In balls,
is -almost as good as fried mush, but most
Western people do not like the smell of the
codfish, and, I think, as a littlo Missouri boy
did who once staid all night nt our house, that
the fish was "spoilt."
liaised pancakes aro healthier than when
mado of soda and sour milk; bread crumbs
and old crusts are good, soaked iu milk and
added beforo baking. Itcmiiants of cold meats
and fowls aro quickly hashed up, snd when
seasoned, if put on slices of bread, are relished
Potatoes are always better if cooked with
skins on ; they will not break to pieces much
if a handful of salt lo put in the water.
Ham and eggs are always a good bresk fast
dish, but there are only two hams to one hog;
and mo of us all feel obliged to scud tho
hams to market, and cat the shoulders ami sido
meat. While being so far from market, thero
omi bo but littlo variety in tho bill of fare; so
it needs tlipught to get up a meal tn relish. It
is well to havo a kit of salt salmon, though
ono does not care for it oftcuer than once in
two weeks. If any is. left cold it is nico
hashed with potatoes and milk or cream, or it
is good with vinegar over it a few days.
Fritters aro excellent, but too rich for the
children. Where lard is plenty, they can be
made to serve as a dessert for dinner and eat'
en with syrup we confess to liking them
very much, but can t say tney are healthy.
Aunt Hutu.
CHOICE BECIPE8.
Pkkskkvinu Bonn in I.l uk. In packing
eggs away in lime, the lime may bo prepared
in any convenient way, but it should be at
least as thick as whitewash that is used for
walls; that is, as whitn as milk, and somewhat
thicker. This Is called cream of lime, and not
lime water. Tlio fresher tho eggs the better
they are kept. One bad e;g will spoil a whole
package, so that care should be taken to have
only fresh ones. The lime will not eat the
shell, for the shell is lime. Half barrels, pails,
jars, or anything that will hold water, will
serve to hold the eggs. Any kind of lime will
ilo.
Lkmos I'll!. Lightly grate the rind of one
lemon, squeeze out the juice, and remove all
seeds; beat the yolks of three eggs and the
white of one with a teacupful of sugar; add a
heaping teaspoonful of flour and half a pint of
water; mix with the grated rind and juice;
pour into a pio plate ready lined with a deli
cate paste, and Lake without cover. Beat the
the remaining two whites with half a cunful
of white augsr to a very still" froth, and spread
over the pie when done, Iteturn it to the oven
until a delicate brown.
Ciikai- Vi.snun. A friend has recently
given mo her method of making vinegar,which
I like so well I thought some one else might
like to try it. She ssid that last Fall, being
unable to buy her yiars supply of eider for
vinegar, she stewed some apple parings, and
turning oil" the water, ulded a little molasses,
and set it iu a jug beside the kitchen stove
pipe. While this was "making" (five or six
weeks,) she procured another jug and turned
into that auvthing that would make vinegar
cold tea, rinsings of fruit cans and moUtses
cups, and occasionally a lump of sugar or
spoonful of syrup. When using from the first
jug, she kept it full from the other. .She fi

OUR LETTEIt BOX
We have only two letters left over this
timo for next week, but we have faith that
sonio of our correspondents will think ol
the Homo Circle, and that there will In-
plenty moro by tho time they are wanted, ftr
the week after. This boy writes a good hand
and answers a question, which shows that ho
krows somo of the arts of politeness. Much
moro might bo said by others of tho charactir
of Washington, and it would bo well if every
boy would read sketches of his life; it is a
good idea to read biographies of all yood men
as it can not but lenvo a good impression on
the mind of the render, who insensibly tries
to imitate. If boys read about pirates,
stories and bad men, they would naturally be
giu to think it was smart to break the laws of
the country and tho mind would become de
prived, only needing the opportunity to try
the very things ho reads about. "The lives
of great men nil remind us, that wo may
mako our lives sublime, and departing Itnvt
liehlnd us footprints in tho sands of time-
footsteps which perhaps another seeing may
take lirart ajjuin." This verso, by Longfellow,
is so often quoted, that it will bear repeating,
and every boy should commit this poem to
memory. Kmma, who is quite a regular cor
respondent, tells us all about homo affairs,
and wo expect she must be quite a good
housekeeper by this time, as her mother it
sick sho will havo to tako charge of many
things. A little girl may bu a great comfuit
to her mother if sho only has tho desiro to lie
useful all of which experience will bo great
help when she gets older. Thur ! nothing
that can !o a greater credit to a girl than to
say sho is kind, self-sacrificing, and a good
house keeper. Wo do not remember that we
said anything about the way Albeit feeds the
calves, but wo would liko to hear him tell how
he docs feed them, and tho best way, in his
experience and opinion in raising tho calves,
ho wniild bo able to write us a goo long let
ter on this subject and we shall look for a
letter beforo loin;. Wc do not think it is
right to break calves oil" either, but we think
they ought to havo half of the milk. The
Chinese do not use milk, because they say it is
wicked to take it, as it rightfully belongs to
tho calf. They work cows as wo do oxen,
Mavgio must not forget to tell aliout her first
trip on tho cars. Aunt Hetty remembers her
first trip, it was on tho first bit of railroad in
the Unitul States, from Lockport to Schcnec
taday, iu New York tat, more than fifty
years ago. The cars were small, looking like
an old fashioned stage, holding about six per
sons, ami the engine was a little affair by the
side of the beautiful ones wo now see glisten
ing with clcau kept braises, and we did not
spin along as fast either. Only forty years
has passed, and the whole earth is spanned
with railroads, while America is a net work
of railroads, with some beautiful palace cars,
that aro like parlors in a house. And tho
woman writes a nice long leeter that needs
only to lie read to lc appreciated, and we
hope she will write frequently.

THAT LITTLE YELLOW CHICKEN.
New York Trlliune.
The old hen sat on thoso eggs for a long,
longtime. "Dear me," she ssid to herself
"I don't believo them's anything iu 'em at
all." Hut by nud by what do you think? She
tho'ight sho heard something, So shu crooked
her bend to one sidu and listened as hard
could, and suro enough shu heard n chicken
say "pccp"righi under her.
"Perhaps there's moro than only one,'' said
the old hen to herself. "I guess I'll just get
up ami look." And as true as I'm nlivu thetu
wero ten yellow chickens that had just
nibbled nut of tho shells. Did I say ten yel
low chickens. Well there were ten, but one
wasn't all yellow by any means.
She hul is black spot right on tho top of her
head and sho was the littlest chicken of
thorn all.
You see- tho old lieu had her nest iu tho
cellar, and as tho chickens scorned to be very
hungry, out shu started with them.
When she got to the back yard she found a
worm tho very first thing. So she said
"Cluck, cluck, cluck," and thu way that ten
pair of little yellow legs with chickens on top
of cm ran up to her was very remarkable in
deed. Hut you seu there wasn't another
worm iu that back yard. Anyway tho old
hen couldn't find any more there, nnd so she
started for a big field back of tho house. Now
do you know tho grass iu that field was
tremendously high, so tremendously high that
it was just as much as tho old lieu could do to
see over the top; and as for the chickens they
couldn't begin to do it, so they kept close to
their mother's long legs all tho time that is,
all but one did, and which ono do you suppose
that was? hy the littlest bit of a one with
the black spot on the top of her head. She
saw a fly, and as shu was very hungry in
deed, shu thought she would havu that fly for
dinner right away, Hut did she? No, she
didn't, the little dy wouldn't stand still to be
eaten, like a good little fly, but hopped away
to another blade of grass; and when the little
chicken gave it up, why she couldn't find her
mother any where at all. There was lots of
blue sky vny over head, and nothing but high,
high grass all around, Poor little chicken!
Do you suppose shu knew what to do? Not a
bit of it, acil though shu cried, "Peep, peep,
peep," very loud the old lieu didn t como.
She had nine chickens with her, and irt-
haps she didn't know how to count up to ten,
ami thought she had all her children theru.
Well, when that poor little lost chicken hail
been cryintf for a long time, shu heard some
thing coming through the grass, and what do
you s'poso it was u big black dog,
You ought to havu seen that big black dog
look at that little yellow thicken, and thu
chicken was just as afr-iid at first as he
could be. ,
"What's tho matter hero?" said the big
black dog.
"I can't find my mother," answered the
littlo chicken iu n very soft voice.
So tho dog looked around, and ho was so
tall ho could sco over tut- top of tho grass just
M well ns not.
"I can sco her," said tlieil-g, "nnd there's
lots of chickens jttt. liko you," .
'Aro they very fnr nwny?" risked the
chicken.
Tho big dog looked, and then hn said they
were, nnd then the littlo chicken begun to
cry.
"Now don't you begin to cry," said tho big
black dog, so thu little chn-keu stopped right
otr.
"You've got such littlo legs," said thu dog,
"that 1 guess I'll havo to carry you on my
back. So ho got way down mi tho ground,
nnd thu littlo yellow chicken climbed carefully
on tho big dog's paw nud then slowly up his
leg till ho could jump on his hack.
"Now you hold on tight nud I'll get up,"
said the big black dog.
"I'iii not n bit afraid," said tho chicken.
"Pooh! no one's nfrnid of me," said tho big
black dog, ns ho wnlkcd nwny very carefully
through tho long irrass.
Hy nnd by tho littlo chicken heard tho old
hen saying, "Cluck, cluck, cluck," nnd then
sho knew sho was nil safe.
"How do you do, Mrs. Hen," said tho big
black dog as ho came up; "have you lost any
thing? Where's tho littlo chicken with the
black spot on her head?"
"Why, goodness mo!" said tho old hen, "I
don't sto her anywhere."
Then tho big black -'og got dow n ogaln and
tho littlo chicken jumped off hU bock mid
kissed tho old lieu n lot of times without
stopping, nnd ss for thnt dear black do?, ho
ran to the housu whero the littlo girl lives,
and had two saucers brimming full of bread
and milk, because it was lunch time, you
