Ladies Bepartmeat. Our New York Letter. Suits for Small Boys—Matters of Moment to Mothers. Special Correapoudeuce to Midland Journal. Small boya wear white muslin yoke slips precisely like those worn by little girls, until they are two years old. Louis Quinze costumes for boys of three consisting of short jacket and kilt shirt of soft washable fab rics, are shown at the furnishing Centres. Blouses of French nainsook, trim med down the centre with large deep collar and cutis of embroidery’ are worn with Louis Quinze cos tumes of velvet or Cord de la Heine Velveteen, that new departure of Nonpareil, which combines style and service. Suits for small boys of dark blue green or red flannel or cashmere, made in the Louis Qninze fashion, are chosen for seaside and country. Such costumes may be ornament* ed with braiding in curled cluster ing designs, and for larger b.oys, sup plemented by a pointed vest of ec ru batiste which delights the small young man immensely. Corset waists, perfectly shaped and fitted as to ensure the comfort and symmetry of the costume entire for children of all ages, are among the specialties shown at Best’s Lipi putian Bazar, in Twenty Third St. New York in which mothers delight. Another novelty of the utmost consequence in the miniature mas culine wardrobe, is a reinforced waist band which takes the friction and strain from small trowsers. Two piece suits, are shown for boys from six to eight years. The kilt shirts sewed on to a waist of si jesia buttoning in front which in a measure transfers the weight of the suit to the shoulders. Long jackets, made of blue, gray or white fllannel piqne, shepherds, plaid or corduroy, either plain or in the Norfolk shape, boxpleated and belted close with buttons and clasps of metal or ivory, are stylishly worn over these waists. There are also pretty Scotch Chev iots in tan and other brown shades in small irregular plaids for the suits More dressy fine cloth and pique suits with a kilt skirt, have the jack et slashed behind, and cut away square at the waist-line to simulate S vest, while still others have revers turned back from this simulated vest. There are wide pocket flaps on each, but no belt. Wide linen collars are worn with these suits, hence there is no collor to the jacket. Sailor blouse Waists are also worn with kilt skirts by boys not yet in short trousers. Large chapeaux, of fancy straw colored, or plain in all the Easter atyles affected by Mamas, are shown for small girls,.whose costumes con stitute a production in smaller type of the toilets of the Mater familias, With fabrics and features a la mode. It must be conceded that a Chica go Manufacturer, has taken the helm in the construction of aCorset which is the most complete invention for mothers. The breast is sustained, and the clothing protected in a fash ion which speaks favorably for the adoption of all brands of Ball’s Cor sets, which are just now a specialty at metropolitan strongholds. f.peeialties in spring genadines produced, at the Arknight, Mills Paterson, New Jersey, in quipture Faffeta and berege weaves, are plain and fancy designs in Cardinal Men ela and Poncean, running the full gamut of all new tints and tones, ■tripes ai d combinations to obtain as well as the self colored canvas still so popular. Sidney Earle. Easter Eggs. Most people have very decided objections to hard-boiled eggs, be cause of their being so difficult to ’ digest; but if any one will try the way of boiling them one hour, he will be surprised at the result. When brok en, the egg will be light, mealy, and a most degestible food. t Marble Eggs. —Get a piece of tar tan silk, or if this is not handy, have several morsels of silk, each ot a different color. Spread these at random on a piece of white calico. Put the egg in the centre, and roll it up very tight, tying it securely with thread, Lo prevent the pieces of silk from slipping out. When the eggs are prepared in this way, place them in a saucepan, with plenty of boiling , water, in which a lump of common I washing soda has been dissolved. The soda is to draw the color out of ihe silk. Let them boil very gently for an hour, at the end of which time remove the coverings, when the eggs will be found to present a very . pretty appearance. When sufficient ly cool to hold in the hand, rub each one over with a little butter or lard, to give it a bright look. Be careful not to crack the eggs, or the color will boil through into the egg itself. Various Colored Eggs- —To dye eggs black, put logwood chips into , the water in which they are to be boiled- These chips can be bought for a trifle at a chemist’s. It is im possible to say the exact quantity that will be required. But it is very easy to tell when the water is dark enough by taking a little up in a spoon. Eggs can be dyed with these chips any shade, from a lovely port wine color to a jet black. To obtain brown eggs, put strong coffee grounds—or settling—into the water. For yellow, use plenty of onion peel ings. Put the peelings into the wat er, while cold, and boil the egos “O among them, Cochineal, a perfectly harmless dye, will make the eggs of any shade, from a deep crimson to a lovely rose pink, according to the quantity used. A pretty effect is sometimes given to the eggs, by daubing them here and there with grease before putting them into the boiling water. Wherever the grease is, the dye does not take; therefore the eggs comes out spotted. Some times the name of the person who is to receive the egg is written on in the same manner. In dying eggs, great care should be taken to use only one spoon, and that an old one. The oldest sauce pan in the house, too, will answer the purpose. All dyes are difficult to remove from these things. Gold and Silver Eggs —The fol lowing is a very superior way of ornamenting eggs: Boil them for an hour in plain water only. When • quite cold, rub them all over with painter’s size. Have ready, in a saucer, some gold or silver dust, . such as bookbinders use. Roll the eggs, one at a time, in this rubbing gently off with a very soft cloth, all the loose dust. Do this until the egg is entirely covered. Or the eggs i can be dyed of any color, and a i name, date, or device put on in the . above rnnnner, with the size and dust. Sometimes I have used gold and sil ’ ver leaf, instead of the dust, but it • was very troublesome, and did not answer the purpose nearly # so well.— . “Country Gentleman.” Wonderinl Cures. W. D.

Avery simple expedient will keep cheese in the best condition. Take a linen oloth, or cheesecloth, dip it-in white wine, squeeze excess of wine, and wrap np the cheese in it. By doiug this the cheese is not otdy kept moist, bat its flavor is improved. Panada, which is well adapted for the diet of a sick child, is made by splitting three Boston crackers; then lay them in a bowl, add one tablospoonful of white sugar, a large pinch of salt, and a little grated nutmeg. Ponr over them enough boiling water to cover them, set a plate over the bowl, and then set the bowl in the oven, if not to warm, for and hour. This will sometimes be retained by a delicate stomach which rejects other food. A pretty mat intended for the top of a small table is made of drab felt. The edge is out in sharp points; between these points are placed soft little tas sels made of high-colored crewel. The border of the mat is made by working with gay embroidery silks any pattern which suits the fancy of the maker. The old-fiiahioned cross-stitch, hr some modification of the feather-stitch, is pretty. To make an excellent vermicelli soup, boil a leg of mutton for three hours; use water enough to cover it. Season with pepper and salt, add but ter and herbs to suit your taste. An hour before serving stir into it a cupful of vermicelli. This soup can be strained if you wish it to be clear, before you add the vermicelli. Keep the tea-kettle ou the stove, full of boiling water, and as the soup boils away add to it from the tea-kettle.
