Beeves Are Out.

Well-Seasoned Meat.
The beef is cut into four parts; two
hind-quarters and two fore-quarters.
The hind-quarter is the most valuable
part of the animal, although the Jews
discard it. In different sections of the
country the side is divided differently.
In the Boston markets the two short
ribs are cut 011 the liind-quarter,
whereas in New York and the western
states these ribs are left with the
others on the fore-quarter. These two
ribs are called in Boston the tip end of
the sirloin; in New York and the west
the tirst cut of the ribs. The different
methods of cutting beef are so confus

only such cuts as are common all over
the country. After having carefully
studied these diagrams, take them to
your butcher and he will locate the
cuts that are not given here.

York and New England and the west,

western prices are lower than in New
England for prime cuts, but the deal

with the prime cut. For example, in
the best murkets in New Englant a rih
of sirloin is cut short, only a little ;
part of the thin ribs, or the flank, be
ing left on. Outside New England j
these pieces arc cut long. As a rule, j
the shorter cuts at the higher price (
are the more economical. In most
parts of New England, the sirloin
steak is what is called porter-house in
other parts of the country. The
sirloin steak of New York is in the
section marked d (see plate No. 1.)
Some of these steaks are fine, but
often there is only a small part ol
tender meat on them, the butcher cut
ting them so as to take in the veiny
part of the round. If one be paying
the price of round steak there is no
great injustice in this, but to pay for a
high-priced steak and get such a cut as
this is not right.
The quality of beef is indicated by
color, texture and odor. Good beef
will have a generous umount of meat
in proportion to the bones. The lean
meat will he firm, fine-grained, and of
a rich, red color. The fat, a pale straw
color, firm and dry; the suet will be
dry and crumble easily.
If the beef bus been hung long I
enough it will be a dark, purplish 1
color when first cut, but after a few 1
minutes' exposure to the air it will
turn a bright red, and tiny beads of
moisture will collect on the surface.
Beef that is coarse-grained and dark
generally comes from old animals.
Very small beef, with a pink rather
than a red color, is apt to be from
cows. Although this beef is never
rich in color and flavor, it is usually
tender and sweet-flavored. Beef that
lias dark, yellow fat, with the suet
tough and clammy, is not from a
healthy animal. Pass it by, and choose
something else for your dinner.—Good
Housekeeping.
Color* to Wear and to Avoid.
A blue-eyed person never looks so
blue-eyed as in a blue dross or white
with a blue cravat, whereas the
strong blue of the fabric might have
been expected to dim or kill the
slight blue of the eye. A woman with
remarkably red lips, clad in dull helio
trope, with amethysts, has all the
coral taken from her mouth, which
wears instead a light heliotrope tint,
and with this tint the pink of her
check is also touched. An ordinary or
even sallow check never looks so
beautifully white as over a white
dress which seemed to threaten to
darken it. And, beautiful as the
"msthetic" colors were in their day,
they quenched and dimmed their wear
ers to their own tone. This is not to
be easily explained by any known
chromatic rules. Nor can one say
why turquoise blue darkens blue • •
and adds to their brightness. Kvpl-ri
merit and verification should be a
much valued by the women as by tin,

THE LATEST IN FANS.
Feathers from nircls of Prey Are the Cor.
recfc Thing: Now.
I must not forget to tell you about
the new fans, as all the New York
belles are ravin# about them. We
have had every kind of fans, big and
Jittle, known to fame. Watteau fans,
pompadour fans, laeo fans, ivory fans, j
ostrich feather fans with tortoise shell
sticks, flirtation fans, where you wrote
sentiments on the ribs, peacock fans—
considered unlucky by the supersti
tious—Turkish fans, Spanish fans — '
coquettish as the dark-eyed senoritas
who wielded them, and turkey-tail fans
ala Comanche belles. This season we J
arc to have the game fan made from the I
feathers of the hawk, owl, eagie,
prairie-hen, anything that the sports
man may bag. The wing feathers will j
form the demi-circle of the fan, and
the soft fuzzy plumage of the breast
the edge. When you have selected I
the plumage from the trophies of the
game bag, the hunter takes them to a
jeweler and has them mounted, or if i
you have a fan-frame you can utilize,
you can mount them yourself, and
have a pretty souvenir. The. hand
somest and most suitable mounting is
some foreign wood, such as sandal or i
olive wood. I f you want a silver mono- j
gram enserolled, the jeweler will as
sist you.
Then there are beautiful reproduc
tions of the fans of our great-grand- ,
mothers, with sticks of yellow ivory,
garlands of old-fashioned posies paint- i
ed on satin, marvelous cliateaus,
coaches-and-four or dainty diminutive

TREATMENT OF COLDS.
Valuable Instruction# Furnished by an
Hmlnent Physician.
The season of colds being at hand, I
the instructions of an eminent phy
sician may be found valuable. When
the first symptoms manifest themselves
is the time for action, and this should
consist of a hot mustard foot-bath be
fore going to bed and a hot draught of
milk. The covering of the body
should be linen and wool, the former
in the way of the sheet and the lat
ter in the blanket. No attempt to
get up an active sweating should bo
made. The foot bath and the warm
drink will give a sense of warmth and
facilitate the natural excretion of
materials which should pass away by
the skin, and any effort to aggra
vate this will be not only superfluous,
but harmful. The blanket should nev
er be worn next to the night robe, and
should not he So thick as to confine the
air next to the body. It is, indeed,
often advisable to lighten the cover
ing of the feet, and preserve a certain
amount of weight over the loins, and
to have the shoulders protected from
the external surroundings in general.
The last measure is not to be under
rated. A sensitive lung carries with
it suscpptibilitj* to take to itself every
thing that could possibly affect it to
its detriment. Lung diseases belong to I
sensitive persons, and may or may not
be the sequence of a cold. The major- i
ity of them, however, can be traced to
imprudence in dress and exposure.—
Good Housekeeping.
AN ELEGANT APRON.
A Pattern Which Is Not Only Pretty Hut
Very Ktyllith.
This lovely apron is made of plain
Swiss muslin, trimmed with scanty
frills of embroidered Swiss edging and
satin-edged ribbon. The bib is shaped
like a triangle with cloth straight way
across at the top where a short slash j
at the center allows the edge to turn
over like rovers. The gored skirt
has a narrow binding of the Swiss over
i which is tacked a ribbon girdle to
match the other ribbon decorations;
the ribbons may all bo removed when
the apron is to le washed. Hut the
pocket, allowable for all such aprons,
is the best of all. (In these pocketiess
days one might almost be willing to
wear an apron to church for the sake
of the pocket.) Such aprons form very
dressy adjuncts to an afternoon toilet,
especially for a hostess who serves tea
or lunch to her guests. Any suitable j
material from prints and ginghams to
surah and pongee may be prettily fash
ioned from this design.—F. P. Scrib
bler, in Farm and Ilomc.
To Make a Fancy W'orkhag.
, For the foundation get a square
. pasteboard box, about eight inches
, wide and four and a half inches deep;
, make a bag of red silk thirty-two
j inches in circumference and fourteen
j inches deep; sew this inside the box.
. The two opposite sides of the bag art;
covered with golden brown plush on
which embroider some pretty flower or ,
monogram. A band of plush, worked
in herring-bone stitches of red silk and
gold tinsel, is placed around the sides
of the box;'the bag is drawn together
at the top by a running slide of silken
cord.
Care of t lie if ami*.
Women who have rough, unsightly
hands would do well toobserve the fol
lowing rules: Never place your hands
iu very hot or very cold water for any
length of time or go out doors in cold
weather with them wet on any occa
sion whatever. It takes but a second
to rinse them off and dry thoroughly
on a boft towel which should always
be conveniently near in every kitchen.

THE SIN OF FRETTING.
'Helen Ilant'n Famoun I.lttle Sermon on
the Subject.
There is one sin which it seems to
me is everj'where, and bj r everybody is
underestimated and quite too much
overlooked in valuations of character.
It is the sin of fretting*. It is as com
mon as air, as speech—so common that
unless it rises ahove its usual monotone
•we do not even observe it. Watch any
ordinary coming* together of people and
we see how many minutes it will be
before somebody frets —that is, makes
more or less complaining statement of
something or other, which most prob
ably everyone in the room or the car
or on the street corner knew before,
and which most probably nobody can
help. Why say anything about it? It
is cold, it is hot, it is wet, it is dry,
somebody has broken an appointment,
ill-cooked a meal; stupidity or bad
faith somewhere has resulted in dis
comfort. There are plenty of things
to fret about. It is simply astonish
ing how much annoyance and discom
fort may be found in the course of
every day's living, even at tho
simplest, if one only keeps a sharp eye
out on that side of things. Even Holy
Write says we are born to trouble as
sparks fly upward. But even to the
sparks flying upward, in the blackest
of smoke, there is a blue sky above,
and the less time they waste on the
road the sooner they will reach it.
Fretting is all time wasted on tho
road.—Helen Hunt.
MAYONNAISE DRESSING.
now to Prepare Tills Rich and Delicious
Table KclUh.
Put the uncooked yolk of an egg into
a chilled bowl, beat well with a silver
fork, then add two saltspoonfuls of
salt and one saltspoonful of mußtard
powder, work them well a minute or
two before adding the oil; then add
a little good oil, which must bo poured
in very slowly, a few drops at a time
at first, alternated occasionally with a
few drops of vinegar. In proportion
as the oil is used, the sauce should be
come thick. When it begins to have
the consistency of jelly, alternate a few
drops of lemon juice with the oil.
When the egg has absorbed a gill of
oil, finish the sauce by adding a small
pinch of cayenne pepper, and one and
one-half teaspoonfuls of good vinegar.
Tasto it to see that there are salt,
mustard, cayenne and vinegar enough,
if not, add more seasoning very care
fully; these proportions will suit most
tastes, yet some like more mustard
and more oil. Do not use too much
cayenne. By beating the egg a little
before adding the oil, there is little
danger of the sauce curdling; yet if, by
adding too much oil at first, it should
curdle, immediately interrupt the op
eration. Put yolks of one or two eggs
on another plate, beat them well and
add the curdled mayonnaise by de
grees and finish by adding more oil,
lemon juice, vinegar, salt and cayenne
to taste. If lemons are not at hand
many use vinegar instead.
DAINTY PICTURE FRAME.
Easily Made by an Amateur Artist fro*
Water Color Paper.
Room belongings are often spoiled
by one tone not quite in harmony, and
dainty pen and pencil or delicate water
color drawings are at times cruelly
treated by the framing, which, in real
ity, should bo the crowning touch.
A pretty frame is easily made by an
amateur artist out of water color pa
per.
It is first cut out heart shape, then
painted, aa in the illustration, in na-
A TOKTTY nEAJIT THAME,
tural shades of forget-me-nots, with
delicate foliage in keeping with the
flowers. The leaves are also cut out
around tho edge, leaving the space
within for the photograph or picture.
A back, the same shape, is made from
pasteboard and fastened to the frame
with Royal glue. The blue ribbon
hang-by and some faint suspicion of
gilding about the center of the flowers
and the entire edge of the frame only
add to its decorative charms. Square
frames of the same* paper, with design
of wild roses and leaves, are also very
becoming to pretty faces within.—N-
Y. Herald.
The Age of Women.
The wish to conceal her ago Is so
popularly supposed to be second nature
to every woman that it has come to bo
accepted almost as one of her preroga
tives. Even on the witness stand legal
inquiry and judgment are very lenient
on this point here in America. Over
in Australia, however, it seems, it is a
serious offense, and recently a mar
riage was declared void because tho
husband proved that his wife had de
ceived him as to her ago, claiming to
be fifteen years younger than she really
was. In this connection the celebra
tion the other day of the ninety-ninth
birthday of a still vigorous woman is
worth mentioning as bringing together
a company of the sex who strove each
to bo older, not younger, than tho
other, thoso who hod touched the
ninety mark announcing the fact with
a pride, that quite silenced the im
mature matrons of seventy-eight and
eighty-five.

CASES FOR DESSERT.
Thoy Can Bo Easily and Prettily
Made at Home.
I'l.ffram Khonln, th© Manner of Cutting
and Folding the Paper Dainties
That Are Usually Served
in Such Uaees.
The pretty white paper cases so gen
erally popular abroad and in many
•houses here for serving all sorts of
frozen dainties can be bought at restau
rateurs, but also they can be easily and
prettily made at home. Their manu
facture is dainty work and an hour or
two of leisure so employed will give
one a plentiful supply for serving des
sets inexpensively and attractively.
These pretty, coverless, box-like
cases are made of fine enameled white
paper. A five-inch square gives a case
of convenient size.
The diagram given here shows the
manner of cutting and folding the pa-
I A c B ~a If
jA c d (/[ I
I ■H'l I i
PAPKR CASK FOR DESSERT,
per. After marking the lines lightly
with a pencil, the square of paper must
be cut in from the sides on the dark
lines, four long and four short, and
creased on the dotted lines. At one
side turn the corner sections lettered
A over that lettered B, so that the
edges C rest on the line fold D. Fold
the part B up against the backs of tho
parts A. Repeat the operation on the
opposite side. Fold inward those parts
of the edges which are shaded, and
fold outward those which are black.
Stick the lapping parts of the box
together with white of egg mixed with
a little flour.
If one keeps in mind that a "box" is
to be made, it is easy to carry out tho
directions.
The diagram given is for a square
case. Oblong cases may be made in
the same way, only making sure that
.the four corner sections are squares as
before.
One of the dainties always served
abroad in a dessert case is a biscuit
glace, a delicious and inexpensive des
sert.
One form of biscuit glace, very sim
ple and delicious, is made from a pint
of cream whipped to a froth, a dozen
and a half macaroons, three eggs, half
a cupful of water, two-thirds of a cup
ful of sugar, a teaspoonful of vanilla
extract (the cup used in the ordinary
kitchen cup holding half a pint). Boil
sugar and water together for half an
hour. Beat the eggs well and stir into
the boiling sirup. Place the saucepan
containing tho mixture in another of
boiling water and heat for eight min
utes. Take from the fire, place the
saucepan in cold water and beat the
mixture until cold; then add the flavor
and whipped cream. Stir well and
nearly fill the paper cases; brown the
macaroons and roll fine. Put a layer
of the crumbs on the cream in the cases
and place these in a large tin box,
buried in two quarts of salt to six of
ice; let them remain there two hours.
It is excellent to add a pint of straw
berry sherbet, putting a little on each
case of cream, and freeze again. After
half an hour, the biscuit glace is ready
to serve on a flat dish, arranging the
cases on a bright napkin.—N. Y. Press.
The Girl We All Adralro.
The girl we all love is frankly girl
ish, with an old-fashioned sentiment,
charmingly developed, which rec
ognizes her duty as a daughter toward
the woman who acts as her mother.
The lovable girl understands that
every day and all day cannot be de
voted to holiday making, but that life
holds duties without number. She is
a cheery little party, and so she goes
about them with a step as light and
gladsome when on an errand of mercy
as if shod with a pair of fairy slippers
and tripping over a well waxed floor.
Ah, this is the girl who will broaden
out and sweeten the life of the man
she marries. She can accept the
thorn with the roses without a mur
mur. Submitting to tho inevitable has
prepared her to become a companion
well worth the wooing and the win
ning.
Feminine Scrap Books.
One of the latest ideas is to keep a
scrap book containing all the refer
ences to one's self that appear in print.
Women of fashion and society belles
keep them, and wherever they go, sea
side or mountains, at home or visiting
in other cities, cut out the references
made to them in the society columns
of newspapers and preserve them care
fully in a scrap-book, which is some
times beautifully bound.
In White and Gold.
White and gold effects were never
more of a rage than at present. Quaint
and curious pieces of furniture abound
in all well-regulated drawing-rooms,
no longer massively impressive, hut
Frenchy, graceful and striking. Dec
orations follow this same hint and are
much to the same purpose; pure daz
zling white picked out with gilding is
emphatically tho combination of the
day. ___
