Fashionable Summer Colon.
In millinery this season nil the
shades of green are the height of fash
ion, particularly a very vivid apple
green. Though flowers are the favor
ite trimming for summer-time hat, yet
fruit is considered extremely smart,
particularly currants. Not only are
clusters of red currant used, but green
unci white currants.
It Is distinctly fashionable this sum
mer to have the gown and its every
accessory match in color. Pongee tan
is one of the favored -shades. The lat
est low shoes are made in this color,
and with them blockings are worn
which exactly match. Laces are also
dyed in this same shade. Woman's

The Mother's Son.
When the mother sees how eagerly
her baby turns to the father for praise
and bow happy he is to be a "really,
truly boy," her heart rebels, as she
puts away the dainty little dresses,
the lace-trimmed coats and the tiny
white shoes, to make room for the sort
of clothing boys must have when they
have outgrown their babyhood. In her
heart the mother wishes her boy had
been a girl, and in fact a great many
mothers keep their poor little chaps
In dresses until they are ashamed to
go outside of the house for fear of the
ridicule from the other boys; and be
hails with delight the arrival of the
sister who can take his place and give
him a chance to be like other boys.
Child Hint.
In bringing up.our children, we have
learned that in regard to religious mat
ters, the, sacred needs to be diluted
with the secular. In other words, re

not nearly so efficacious in character
building as the making a few princi
ples of righteousness a vital) part of
life. Tractlce Is better than precept.

Ilerr Hugo vod Kupft'er, editor of
liio I.oiul Anzeigor. of Berlin, who hit
been studying AnicviYnn life and inMl
ttitions during his six weeks' stay in
this country, sailed for Germany re
cently aboard the Princess Alice. Pre
vious to his departure, he sa.'d he was
much Impressed with the increasing
influence of American women in public
affairs of all kinds. Germany, lie
thought, had much to loaru from Amer
ica's institution, especially In the lib
erality of her citizens to charities.
"Since I was here ten years ago,'
said Herr von Kupffer, "I think Anier
lean women have Improved In pood
looks, and nt that I've always consid
ered American girls the prettiest of any
In the world. But the influence ol
your women has increased to a re
markable degree.
"The average American woman likes
to push herself forward and enlarge
her mental horizon. This is mnde all
the easier for her, as she enjoys more
Independence than her European sis
ter. And yet, with all her frulepend
ence and her inclination to rule, I can't
find that she's Inst a bit of her woman
liness. And the American 'woman,
from what I have observed, is, con
trary to the populnr belief in my conn,
try, a far better housewife than th
German."

At to Pepper Mills.
A pepper mill is a piece of silver not
often seen on tables nowadays. Eng
lish housekeepers, however, still use
the pepper mill, and American silver
smiths sometimes keep It to meet the
demands of old-fashioned families wht
prefer to grind their own pepper rath
er than risk tte chance of adultera
tion. The pepper mill dates back to
the time when pepper was a scarce
commodity, and was always ground
at the table from the pepper corns.
Tepper was so valuable in those days
that rents were often paid in peppet
corns, and the high prices they
brought were among the Incentive
that induced explorers to brave the
dangers of the unknown deep. If a
Bhort passage could be discovered to
the Indie it was agreed by nil that
a wealth of pepper could be easily
brought to Europe. Ground pepprt
is extensively adulterated to-day, and
to those who are fastidious and care
to take the slight trouble of grinding
the pepper corns themselves a pepper
mill is a convenient little utensil.
Fee Powders.
It should be generally known that
"egg powders' have nothing In com
mon with eggs but the color. When
ever it is desirable to give n yellow ap
pearance to articles of the bread and
cake order, a little liquid saffron col
oring may be mixed with the water
or milk used for mixing. In mixing.
Water is all sufficient for the plainest
forms of quick bread, but skim or new
milk adds to the nourishment and
richness. Buttermilk is of service,
but instead of using baking powder
add a teaspoonful of carbonate of soda
and half a teaspoonful of tartaric
acid to every pound of flour. The rea
son for this variation Is that, owing to
the capacity of buttermilk, less acid
in the form of powder is required.
The properties ar. on an average,
a heaping teaspoonful of powder to a
pound of flour for bread, but this may
be increased by one-half for scones,
also, if the powder has been kept for
any length of time, allowance must
be made, as it loses its strength. About
half a pint of liquid per pound Is
right, but this must be regulated by
the quality of the flour and the amount
of fat UBed in the mixture.
