MINTWOOD’S CONVERSAZIONE. 
Shell Frames, Etc.—"A. F.” asks for 
“ the best ami prettiest way to make shell 
frames.” Pretty shells, arranged artistic¬ 
ally, will be sure to make a pretty frame. 
Perhaps some one of our readers may be 
able to give A. F. explicit instruction. 
Photographing a Pride.—It is a mere 
matter of taste, whether or not a bride 
should be droased in bridal attire when be¬ 
ing photographed for a marriage certificate. 
If the space allowed is large enough for a 
full length picture, showing the costume, it 
would be in clover keeping with the condi¬ 
tions. 
Miscellaneous Answers.— Mary C. FI., 
Nelson.—Make the poplin trimming into 
frills of side plaiting, and stitch on an inch 
from the upper edge. Small, loose sleoves 
are worn. Black alpaca remains fashion¬ 
able. Presses are cut high at the neck, and 
finished with a cord or narrow band. When 
you wish to introduce “ two girl cousins of 
the same name to a friend,” address the 
elder as “ my oousin, Miss yMrrn, from New 
York,” and the younger, “Miss Julia 
Smith, of Smithtown,” or from whatever 
place she may be. 
Swiss Muslin. Graduating Dress.— 
Horn rLTTE, Ohio. — Your idea of making 
your “ Swiss muslin graduating dress, with 
graduated rulllcs nearly to the waist,” is 
good. Make the waist a basque, separate 
from the lining, with small, open sleeves, 
and trim with ruffles; upright ruff of lace, 
or blonde, at the neck. Make the skirt with 
a demi-traiu; the petticoat worn beneath 
should bo of the same length. Necktie, 
hair-ribbon, and sash of very pale, silvery 
blue, or lavender. 
Fashions for Boys.—A simple, jaunty 
suit for boys from five until nine years of 
ago, is the English Bailor costume, and may 
bo made of white linen, duck, or pique- 
duck preferred. The waist is blouse, falling 
loosely over the waistband; seam on the 
shoulder and under the arm; coat sleeves, 
and pants coming just below the knee, only 
loose enough at the bottom for the feet to 
slip through. A largo sailor collar, with 
the points coming just hack of t he shoulder, 
and forming a rather deep squaro at the 
back, broad cuffs on the sleeves, and stripes 
down the outside of the pants, are cut from 
blue cloth, Chambre or French calico- 
About half an lnoh from the edge of blue, 
sew a narrow white cord or braid; flat pearl 
buttons an inch in diameter. The blouse 
is cut rather low at the throat, and should 
be worn with a shirt beneath. A blue cra¬ 
vat tied in a sailor knot, at the union of the 
sailor collar in front, a straw sailor hat 
with a blue band, blue and white striped 
stockings with button boots complete a very 
pretty summer costume for boys, that any 
housewife can make. They are pretty made 
of white flannel and trimmed with blue 
flannel; for boys less than five years of age, 
dresses with short sacqucs or jackets are 
worn. The skirt is plainly gored or laid in 
kilt pleats. The jacket is cut iu Vandykes 
around the bottom, and bound with braid, 
the corners being left square, clipped or 
rounded. Plaited poplins make up stylish¬ 
ly, and for cool days velveteen or plush, 
with white shirt waist under tho jacket; 
for hot weather, linen, pique, or calico. Boys 
over ten years of age, wear a full suit, coat, 
vest and pants of gray, drab, brown or blue 
cassimere or melton cloth. 
Fashions for Young Girls.—Hair worn 
loosely or in braids; dresses nearly to the 
tops of the boots; no hoops worn; flounce 
on the bottom of overskirt trimmed with 
a ruffle, or scalloped and bound; short 
jacket or round cape for wrap. A pretty 
costume for a girl of ten or fourteen, is a 
petticoat of light-blue wool delaine, with a 
flounce, or alternate ruffles of blue and 
gray delaine; a polonaise of light-gray (or 
drab) delaine trimmed with tho blue; a 
gray straw or silk hat with blue ribbons, 
two long ends falling below tho waist at tho 
back; ruffle in the neck, blue necktie, and 
.gray gloves. Small checked poplins of 
fclack and white, blue and white, or pink 
and white, make up well for misses. Many 
are made with overskirts looped at the back, 
and basque waists. 
Street Dresses.—Quite a marked feature 
of some new and elegant dresses, is the very 
deep skirt trimming. The skirt is cut off, 
half or three-quarters of a yard from the 
waist, aud finished with a flounce laid in 
kilt plats. The overskirt is short in front, 
long behind, aud looped. Frequently, the 
front of the skirt is trimmed high, with 
only a flounce of moderate width at the 
side and back. A skirt trimmed with a 
ruffled flouuco, has the front width orna¬ 
mented with perpendicular puffing or ruf¬ 
fles, with, perhaps, bows down tho center. 
Tho fashiou of varying the trimming in 
front is quite common. A stylish linen suit 
has the skirt, over-skirt and mantle (round 
cape) trimmed with fringe of the same 
shade, with parasol aud hat of the same. 
Fringe does not. wash well, unless great care 
is taken, so ( hat flat braids, scalloped edges, 
etc., are to be preferred in all wash goods. 
The Shift H’alsts, of calico, etc., that 1 
wore so popular last summer, will continue 
to be worn. They are made with plaits, 
and in length come well over the hips. A < 
shirr string at the waist confines them, and J 
is let out when the waist is washed or 
ironed. They fit much better than when i 
made with a waistband. The sleeves have < 
a lit tle fullness at the top, and at the bot- | 
tom are finished with a deep cuff. 
How to Make a Black Alpaca. Etc.— 
Aon.ES II., Newark.—Make your black al¬ 
paca with a polonaise: coat sleeves, left 
open at the under-sleeve for a few inches; 
trim with two bias ruffles. Trim the front 
and side widths of the skirt with a deep 
kilt flounce, and ruffle tho remaining widths 
to tho same bight. You can add a round 
capo or mantle if you like. Make the. sleeves 
of your Victoria lawn coat shape; shoot and 
finish with a kill frill to match tho skirt 
trimming. A Llama lace aacque, " good 
enough lor anybody,” can be had for $28. 
Those of guipure cost from 850 up. 
In Summer SilkH, narrow stripes are to 
be preferred — black and gray, blue and 
white, white with green, or lavender. A 
black and gi’ay, with the polonaise (rimmed 
with fringe to match, makes a serviceable 
and elegant costume, from twenty-five to 
thirty yards are required. It costs from $1 
up. At present, the polonaise is tho “ most 
approved” style, although many prefer the 
basque and overskirt, which admits the 
wearing of a cotton or linen skirt waist. 
Church Gloves, with a black suit, may 
be gray, straw color, or salmon. Gloves 
should harmonize with the other colors 
worn—not necessarily match them. In re¬ 
gard to linen suit, read elsewhere. 
WhlteTucked Dress.—H ue L.VV., South 
Butler.—You can wear your whito tucked 
d ress skirt as a looped tunio over a black 
dress; or wear a black (silk) polonaise over 
that; or ripping it up carefully, make a pol¬ 
onaise of it, to wear over a black silk suit. 
Ella La Itue will find directions for her 
“little sister’s dresses ” in “fashions for 
girls." “Little” is an indefinite descrip¬ 
tion.

DOMESTIC RECIPES. 
Graham Bread.—There is but one way 
only to make Graham bread, viz:—Obtain 
first-class flour and make it precisely in the 
same manner as wheaten bread, with ba¬ 
kers’ yeast. It is the most natural and 
wholesome of all breads. Some people fan¬ 
cy that with the addition of soda, molasses, 
steaming, eto., it becomes more palatable. 
This is all bosh ; for the manner In which it 
is generally made renders it by no means 
healthy or digestible, while nu contraire , 
the simpler it is prepared the better, like 
all other food. I have used it made accord¬ 
ing to t he above plan for twenty years, only 
varying from the same when traveling, and 
then have been compelled, at hotels, to 
worry down trash, yclept Graham bread, 
mado out of villainous compounds aud pre¬ 
pared, no doubt, according to some of tho 
“ precious ” recipes occasionally appearing 
in various newspapers.—P. I. C-, Vineland , 
New Jersey. __ 
Preserving Sweet Corn.—M. B. Wade, 
Fairfield, Co., Conn., prepares sweet corn as 
follows:—“ We take the corn right from the 
hill, and take off some of the husks, but uot 
all, and put it in the stove-oven, aud leave 
it there to cook from twenty to thirty min¬ 
utes. Then take it out, take off the rest of 
the husks, and with a two-tilled fork take 
the corn from the cob, put on dishes, aud 
return to the oven to dry. This is the In¬ 
dian method, only instead of the oven they 
used hot stones, and burned the corn with 
with them until cooked, and then dried in 
the sun.” 
To Boil Eggs, — Who does not know 
how? Yet how few people know the way 
to boil them in order to retain all their de¬ 
licious flavor. Allow me to tell you my 
method:—1 put one half dozen eggs into a 
(in pail, and pour about two quarts of boil¬ 
ing water over them ; then set the pail on 
the hearth, where tho heat is not kept up, 
and let them remain from six to ten min¬ 
utes. according ns we like them cooked, 
hard or rare. By so cooking the white is 
always tender anil delicious. Try it.—Mo- 
! na, Titusville, Pa.
