Theso nro somo figures given out by
tho Produeo Exchange, Chicago:
In 189 J, In tho United Stntes, thoro

oleomargarine, equal to tho product of
500,000 cows, of which, in Illinois, thoro
wero mado about 60,000,000 poundB,
equal to tho product of 460,000 cows.
During tho above period, tho agricul
tural producer for tho raw material en
tering Into n pound of butter received
sixteen (10) ccntB, whllo under tho same
conditions, for tho raw material enter
ing into a pound of oleomnrgnrino ho
received threo (3) cents. This dlffcronco
represents n loss of thirteen (13) cents
on evory pound of olco sold nnd con
sumed as butter over $8,000,000 In tho
United 8tatcs and J7.C00.000 in Illinois.
It is n conservative ostltnato that
eighty (80) to nincty-flvo (05) par cent
of tho olco consumed is consumed as

off and tho cheeso is washed with water
at 80 degrees and nil tho mold Is re

one color, or. If preferred, the fan plaits
may be of color or material to make it
harmonize with the bodice for which
the skirt Is planned. As a means to
ward a clever make-over. It is admir
able. Think how successfully the older
skirt, the one a little narrow, for in
stance, can be adjusted by these merci

how charmingly a second material, to
be repeated In the bodice, can form the
fans. For the woman who is so situ

A New Definition of Itnuette.
If there is reason for complaint now
and then on the part of the folks who
consider themselves authorities over the
change of accepted meaning In oortnln
words, what should tho woman say who
means to be up In fashion's terms?
For it Isn't slowly-established custom
that does the mlBchlef In the vocabulary
of styles, but some freakish whim of un
certain source, which upsets all ideas of
what a term should stand for. Take
the word rosette, for example. Who
does not know whnt It means? Few
according to this summer's definition,
for this Is what constitutes a rosette: A
collar-high band of satin In ivory whlto
is covered with Jotted not, edged top
and bottom with Jet Jewels. A pair of
fully elaborate contrivance, but or
dinary bows are still at a premium
and are as ornamental ns ever. Four of
them, of Dresden ribbon, set oft the
rosettes of Jetted crisp net Is at the
sides, and a pair ot tabs of tho gauze
covered sntin hang from the collar to
the bust line. Their edges touch at the
collar, and they separate a little as they
hang. At the lower edge is sot a
gathering of the Jetted gauze, with Jet
Jewel edge. Such an affair Is worn with
any black or white gown, and Is called
a "rosette" by those who ought to know,
so don't think of giving it any other
name. Even the innocent word "bow"
is made to comprehend somo wonder-
blouse shown here, and n fifth one com
pletes the belt. Silk, figured with large
flowers, is the dress fabric, and it is cut
In imltntion o? a princess gown. The
skirt has a front breadth ot accordoon
plaited black chiffon, but tho sides and
Wek, &U forming deep godets, are bt
tho figured stuff. A vest of the plaited
chiffon nppears on the blouse, and tho
sleeves from the figured stuff terminate
at the elbows. The gathered stock col
lar Is of black chiffon. Something dis
tinctly new in tho way of neck finish Is
a pair of black gauze rosettes, so
large that they fill tho neck line from
tip of ear to shoulder. These rosettes
connected by bands of gathered gauze,
which, Instead of being drawn closely
about the front and back of the neck
in tho usual choker fashion, are drawn
down Into points, front nnd back, dis
closing the rise of the necK prettily, and
effectually masking all scrawny lines at
tho sides or tips of collar bones. From
the lower edge of the connecting piece
In front spreads a ruffle of the gauze.
Such an affair may be worn by a
scrawny woman with her "V" bodice,
rendering it becoming and dressy, too.
Hints to Housekeeper)).
Vaseline makes the best dressing for
russet shoes.
Spirits of turpentine Is the thing with
which to cleanse and brighten patent
leather.
Moderately strong salt and water
taken by the teaspoonful at Intervals
Is a cure for catarrhal cold.
A level teaspoonful of boraclc ncld
dissolved In a pint ot freshly boiled
water and applied cool is the best
wash for inflamed sore eyes or granu
lated lids, and an excellent gargle tor
Inflamed sore throat.
Soft newspaper Is excellent to cleanse
windows or any glassware.
Cold tea cleanses pnlnt better than
soap and wnter unless the paint Is
white, when milk Is better.
If meat Is tough, or If you have any
doubt of Its tenderness, put a table
spoonful of vinegar over it when put on
to cook: you will find It very tender
when done,
Sweetmeats, such as Jellies, Jams,
and pound-for-pound preservos, must
be saved for luncheon or dinner, and
spiced fruits, as a rule, do not belong
on the breakfast table; but a glass of
cool fruit Juice Is refreshing In the
morning and decoys one through the
doubtful pleasure of eating bread and
steak.
Out-Door Huts.
For hats to be worn In outdoor sports
tho general rule is to have them ot tho
dross goods or something that is dis
tinctly harmonious with it. For golf,
the crown Is usually soft and the brim
stitched many rows around. High
loops of ribbon trim the left side. Hats
are made In this same style of very soft
mllan straw, with the brim a little
curled, and Just at one Bide of the front
a rosetto holds a bunch of stiff cock
plumos. Cycling hats have tarn o'
shanter crowns with a narrow flexible
brim that is often cleft Just at the
front, Near the front a ribbon holds a
bunch of quills set at a Jaunty angle.
So-called steamer hats, which are also
used for any long Journey and for the
mountains, are a soft felt in alplno
shape. A bow of gros grain In front
holds a bunch of quills.
. SOME LATE SUMMER, STYLES.
muuumii''""iiiiiii vrr i nuiiiiijniij.iuajjncsin:
FASHION NOTES.
The plaited and rosetted collars of
chiffon are stll. to be seen; in fact, tho
lavish use of this material bids fair to
last nil through the summer.
The fulness In glgot sleeves is dis
posed In gathers or plaits at the shoul
ders, the distended effect being attained
equally well by both modes of adjust
ment. Sleoves for plain dresses are always
worn long, sometimes too long. Somo
end In the form of the mouth of a
blunderbuss or of a flute, and are most
unbecoming.
In a charming blouse waist the pouch
falls from ii pointed yoke, and the close
back is relieved by a box plait. Box
plaits are Just now conspicuous attri
butes of blouses.
The full sleeve should have the lining
cut of tho same size to Insure them to
lay In artistic folds. Inexperienced
dressmakers do not realize what a dif
ference this will mako to tho fit and cor
rect droop of the sleeves.
The demand for shirt waists exceeds
that of any other season on record, nnd
they aro made in a greater variety of
materials than ever before, the latest of
which is dimity, made up with white
linen collars and cuffs.
Another whim of fashion which
amounts to a erase is tho large collar of
lawn, batiste, lace, chiffon and embroid
ery, which 13 displayed in such a diver
sity of styles In the shops nnd worn over
every imaginable sort of gown in the
street.
Some of the overcoats worn are very
unbecoming. They are a kind of a sac
paletot and are quite straight and al
most reaching the knees, thus rcsem
blng a sort of floating camisole. Tho
sleeves are very lErge, very long and
tight at the wrist.
Tho new plain nnd figured mohairs are
gaining favor very rapidly. They nro
very silky In appearance, light In weight
and do not hold the dust The new
alpacas most approved of fashion are a
widely - meshed material, peculiarly
glossy, but almost rough in finish.
White pique is worn for young girls'
mourning, and even for a young mar
ried woman when the mourning Is not
deep. The white pique used for mourn
ing should be trimmed with black.
Black moussellne de sole frilled very
fine should be used to trim the neck,
flaps and waist, and produces a very
pretty effect.
Kienlng Henri Dress.
As if following the lead of fans, which
are now made In empire style, covered
all over with spangles, looking quite as
picturesque as ever a grandmother fan
could, evening head-dresses follow the
picturesque empire styles. On top of
the head at the end of the part stands
a big bow, with a regular wheel of
wide-spreading ends and loops. From
under this bow falls a Jabot of lace
down each side of the head, over the
ears and to the shoulders, and lace
covers the back of the hair, too. Tho
whole effect Is quaint and generally be
coming. lint Trimmings
For hat trimmings tulips and other
large petaled flowers are made of lace,
flowers being cut In many cases from
rich iaco patterns that are wired and
bent into shape. T, effect Is charm
ingly dainty on rich hats, but the lover
of lace shudders at the despoliation of
the lace Just as many women shrink
from the whole birds for trimming.
Another new use of lace finds It stif
fened by loops of wire, gathered Into
upstanding bunches and placed on lints
as in aigrette fashion.
Th Montrose Pearls.
By the will of the late Caroline, Duch
ess of Montrose, the amount realized by
the gem of her casket of Jewels tho
wonderful necklace of over three hun
dred pearls Is to be devoted to the re
lief of the East End poor. As the neck
lace realized no less than 11,500 pounds,
I hope the money will be wisely expend
ed. One could do a great deal of good
with 11,500 pounds, but ono could also
do a great deal ot harm with such a
sum, and create quite a small army of
paupers with It.
Tor Impromptu nrden l'nrty.
For the Impromptu masque or garden
party a Dolly Varden panler dress of
brightly flowered cretonne Is easily
made, and completed as to plcturesque
ness by any big straw hat bent into
poke bonnet shape and trimmed in a
whirlwind of feathers and roses. An
old-fashioned fan, mits to the elbow,
and little black slippers strapped with
black ovor the white lisle thread In
steps are desirable accessories.

An elegant visiting dress is made of
gray cloth, with a band of passemsn

Is of very dark blue perforated cloth,
through which the color of the Bklrt
