NOVELTIES FOR TOURISTS KASOSABLK HINTS TO THE LA DIEM 1 Bfelties for Traveling Toilette Chat About tbe Kind of Drecsea. UaU, Bnaques, t'lOKka and Etcetera to Wear, Since traveling cloaks and Huslere canie into general use there is less jreceadty for a special suit lor travelc orinerly every lady provided herseTf with a costume of dark iriry'frown stuff plainly wade, and with inconspicuous trimming to use on journeys by boat or railway. Now this is scarcely neces sary, a the long wrap entirely conceals the dress, hence more, dressy costumes tbat are 'suitable for various occasions are also used wheu traveling. Very neat toilettes of the low priced summer silks in small checks or broken bars, either brown or gray with white or with navy blue, are chosen for short jour neys, and are orotected by lone cloaks. In this uncertain climate it is better, however, to 'WOOLEN GOODS FOB TRAVELING DRESSES Among these are light qualities of pure wool, or of the stifler mohair that will not cockle from moisture and sheds dust like water.

The plain de beges are still used, uui are being replaced by those with armure figures or with open stripes. The French bunt ing, which is still all pure wool of even lighter quality than de bege, and of rough surface like camel's hair, is much used for such costumes, and is excellent wear for the seaside and mountains. This is made up in tbe Breton styles, and trimmed with galloon or with light Hercules braid. It was the preference for thin soft pliable bunting that brought into use the more harsh and wiry American bunting for dresses. Linen and batiste suits wrinkle easily, and are so cool that they are not to be depended upon for" more than a day's journey.

The polonaise and walking skirt, short enough for the latter to escape the ground, is the favor ite desien for such suits, having for its rivals the Breton basque and overskirt, and the IWkHI ftOOUUO IT II OUUM.v h.kit honnlio with U111UH hUftra RtlH RnilJtTP plastron. A NOVELTY THIS SEASON, suitable for traveling toilettes, is the masculine looking English basque, with a reverse collar precisely like that of a gentleman's coat. The iront buttons from this reverg nearly to the waist, whence it is cut away to disclose a vest of the same material as the coat. The pocket are on the sides, with large flaps, while behind buttons designate the waist line, and there are lappets below in the seams. With this is worn anil a fl I folded silk scarf, such as gentlemen wear to conceal the most of the shirt bosom.

The coat sleeves are without a only but tons on the outside seams at the wrist. It is made up in basket cloth, either black, blue black or invisible green, and is merely stitched by ma chine on the edges. ne nutious are 01 uars wood, thick and round, with eyes iu the middle. A long, plain overskirt of the same cloth is stitched on the hem, and draped slightly on Ibe sides by bullous ami button noies. i ne lower skirt, of silk of the stme shade, is trimmed with a single knife pleated flounce, five inches deep, headed by an upright pleating set on tbe upper edge of the flounce and Stitched there.

The hat is black chip of any of the stylish Euglish ahittics, or else a toque of mixed white ami hlm straw with a long scan veil of grenadiue, or perhaje a capote bonnet of mixed straw with some scarlet puppies for trimming, or red bows and lijops for a touch of color. TRAVELING CLOAKS. The most stylish traveling cloaks are long, slender garments of sacque shape, reaching from the throat to the affording ample protection for the dress. The fronts are double breasted, with two or three rows ol buttons, and there are laree, useful pockets. The furnishing houses make these of de bege or of stiff wiry camel hair, either gray or brown, trimmed with black silk or wool binding and nearl buttons.

Glossy mohair that turns the dust and is easily cleaned is also used for these wraps. Some have capes or hoods, and others have merely deep, square collars. Home cir culars are used because they are easily put off and on; but garments with sleeves are pre ferred, as these leave the arms more at liberty ULSTERS NOT ABANDONED. Ulsters are by no nieanB abandoned. The most fashionable modistes bring ladies' English Ulsters of figured Scotch Cheviots, such as gentlemen wear for business suits.

They are of olive brown plaids or else gray grounds with indistinct threads of red or of blue. Linen dusters retain the Ulster belt in the back, but are less baggy than the ungainly garments worn last summer. Home of them have kilt pleats in the back from the waist to foot, banded in three or four places parallel with the belt. Waterproof cloaks ol the improved aephyr gossamer are new rubber garments that are very highly commended. They have less gloss than formerly, and look like black silk, and they have none of the disagreeable sulphurous odor of such garments when first introduced.

They are exceedingly light, and may be folded small enough to carry in the pocket. fPiVTCT.TNfl RAftR. Black or plum colored English morocco is preferred to Russia leather for ladies' traveling bags. They are best when made "solid" that is, with square corners anil fixed slifl 6idee as the softer bags allow the contents to be crumpled. They are lined with blue silk, and arranged with straps for button hooks, bags for bottles, and fastened by silver clasps.

Furnished bags, fitted up with yellow ivory boxes and cut glass bodies, with silver tops, are most luxurious and expensive articles. Cbatelain bags of Russia leather, or of dark blue or black velvet, are fastened lo ladies' bells, and are large enough to hold the various needed small articles, such as pocket book, purse for silver, handkerchief, keys, Ac. NECESSARIES. Among the many useful things provided for travelers are long bottles with silver stoppers for protecting brushes for the leeth or nails when carried in the traveling bag. Folding scissors, with the points turned up in the handle in the way usual with cork screws, are email enough and safe enough to be carried in the pocket.

French nail clips are scissors with curved pointed ends fur trimming the nails neatly. Still others, with the points reversed, are for the flesh at Ibe lop of the nails. Nail cases of Russian leather are fitted up ..1..1, for polishing the nails, and a chamois pad for rubbing the polish on. SOME OF THE IND1SPENSABLE9. An excellent novelty is a shoe buttoner, with along handle above the hook, so that it is not necessary to stoop down to buttou the boot.

To stow away securely in traveling hags are Cologne bottles of yellow ivory with tops screwed on; also powder boxes, pin boxes, hair pin cases, bottles for brushes, a fork and spoons, partitioned boxes for postage stamps, and there are even whisk brooms and bonnet brushes with beautiful ivory handles. Embroidery cases, with scissors, bodkin, piercer, crochet needles, and cases lor sewing silks are also shown. Carriage hags for visiting are furnished with places for cards, a slate for memoranda, and a book for lists of visits received and returned. Dressing cases for ladies are covered with rich Persian Bilk, and fitted with combs and brushes of yellow ivory or of tortoise shell, or else with pale blue enamel or copper set in white ivory. Shaving cups of silver are shown for gentlemen; also silver shaving sets elaborately ornamented with repoume work.

Small necessaries fur gentle men are supplied with shaving brushes, razors, cornkuilu, corkscrew, button hook, court plaster, scissors, and other small articles, most compactly arranged. llarytr't liuzar.

The Law on Fine Funerals. JUDGE RHONE, OF LUZERNE, DECIDES THEY ARK A LUXURY. udge Rhone, of Luzerne county, has called for the vouchers for the items termed "funeral expenses" in a recent case heard in the orphans' court. The ainouut of the decedent's ersonal estate was $081.82, while the expenses of burial were returned by the administrator at $139.75. On the subject of extravagant funerals Judge Rhone says "It is not necessary to have a pompous procession in great length, in which figure conspicuously waving plumes the prancing livery steed, harnessed to finely upholstered vehicles and a glistening silver plated casket in which is placed the cold clay, clothed with raiment as cfntlv as the richest he wore when living.

Neither is a pile of carved marble with poetic inscription set over the tomb in a conspicuous corner lot iu the city of the dead, necessary for a Christian burial. Have the terms grave, colli and shroud, been forgotten by everybody Such parades as are called 'line funerals' may gratify the vanity ol tbe living, but no respect for the dead demands them, and where a decedent's estate is limited and his debts are not paid, or where he leaves a lamily of helpless children, tbe ex penses of such burials will not be allowed out of his estate, those who contract tor antl en joy such luxuries must pay for them themselves." A New Confidence Came. A man ordered a few bill heads for "Couo ver, Tatmun produce dealers, Mo. 12 East Second street, Wilmington, at Hrathau's printing office in Philadelphia, to he called for yesterday morning. No one appearing Urathan telegraphed to Mayor While ley, of Wilmington, to know whether there was such a firm in that city, the Mayor replied "No." The supposition is that the bill heads were to be used in swindling Derations by writing ou them orders for articles, which, when sent to the prescribed destination, would be taken possession of and shipped elsewhere.

A transaction of that kind, in which the billheads were dated "Reading," Was discovered Borne time ago. Folly of Jumping on Trains.

The man got on safely, but the woman after catching bold of the platform swung back and would have fallen under the wheels of the cars if Ollii ers Kendall and Goodfellow, who had watched the movements of the couple, had not come lo the woman's assistance. Officer Kendall caught hold of her and helped her on the car, and having regained her balance she was able to enter the car and join her husband.

Healibfuluess of leinona. About Disinfecting. Cnrea for Hydro phobia, Cold, Ac. We append a number of seasonable hints, which if followed, will be found contributive to health and comfort at little cost and possibly with great benefit to the sufferer. At least the recipes are worth trying, since they are so simple and cheap.

HOW TO MAKE A CHEAP Now that the warm weather is upon us, and as a refrigerator has become almost one of the iudispeusables in house keeping, it. may not be amiss for our readers, who do not feel able to invest in one of Ihe mauy excellent ones for sale at our stove stores, that a very good can be gotten up cheaply in the following manner Take a large tight box of the required size, and put some broken blocks on each comer ior legs. Then lake a small box, leaving a space for at least six inches on the sides and bottom. Place a layer of powdered charcoal, hue sawdust, or some other good nou conductor upon the bottom and set the small box iu. Then pack the charcoal orsaw dust all about in the same space between the two to the top.

Make a closely fitting cover for each box. The ice should be placed in the box in some tin vessel so arranged that the water will run oil' through the bottom of both boxes. If such a refrigerator is lightly aud well made and placed in a cool place, a small quantity of ice per day will be all that is required. TO MAKE CHEAP BUMMEH DRINKS. To make root beer, take a quantity of sar saparilla roots, sassafras bark and some hops, and boil till the strength is extracted.

To three gallons of the liquor, after it is strained, add one quart of molasses and a cup of yeast. After stauding in a warm place eight or ten hours, strain again and bottle. It will be fit for use the following day. For ginger beer, take one pint of molasses and two spoonsful of ginger, put into a pail to be half filled with boiling water when well Btirred together, fill the pail with cold Water, leaving room for one pint of yeast, which must not be put in till lukewarm. Place it on tbe warm hearth for the night, aud bottle it in the morning.

For spruce beer, take three pounds of sugar, four gallons of water, one ounce of ginger, a little lemon peel or essence of lemon, aud a little essence of spruce to give it a flavor. Stir all together, warm it a trifle add a cupful of good yeast. When fermeuted, bottle up close. Mead is made by dissolving one part of honey in three of boiling water, flavoring it with spices, and adding a portion of ground malt, and a piece of toast steeped in yeast, and allowing the whole to ferment. THE HEALTHFULNESS OF LEMONS.

When people feel the need of an acid, if they would let vinegar alone and use lemons or apples, they would feel just as well satisfied and receive no injury. A suggestion may not come amiss as to a good plan when lemons are cheap in the market. A person should then purchase several dozen at once, and prepare thein for use, in the warm, weak days of the spring and summer when acids, especially citric and malic, or the acid of lemons, are so grateful and useful. Press your hand on the lemon and roll it back and forth briskly on the table to make it squeeze more easily then press the juice into a bowl or tumbler, never into a tin strain out all the seeds, as Ihey give a bad taste. Remove all the pulp from the peels, and boil in watera pint for a dozen pulps to extract the acid.

A few minutes boiling is enough; then strain the water with the juice of the lemons, put a pound of white Btigar to a pint of the juice, boil ten minntes, bottle it, and your lemon syrup is ready. Put a tablespoonful or two of this lemon syiup in a glass of water, and have a cooling healthful drink. ATlOUT DISINFECTING. Now that Ibe hot season is upon us it behooves all tbe citizens to disinfect all cesspools that require it, and all places where decomposition is going on, and from odors which arise that are ofiensivc, or prejudicial to health. The following cheap mixture, which can be had of any diuggist for ninety cents is effectual and will last for the season: 5 lbs copperas, lb of carbolic acid, 5 gallons of water.

Apply one quart to a cesspool once a week. URE FOR HYDROPHOBIA. The receipe is that of Cassar, a Freuch physician Take two tablespoonful Is of fresh chloride of lime, mix it with half a pint of water, and with this wash keep the wound constantly bathed and frequently renewed. This chlorine gas possesses the power of decomposing the tremendous poison, and renders mild and harmless that venom against whose resistless attack the artillery of medical science has been so long directed in vain. It is uecessary to add that this wash should be applied as soon as possible after the infliction of the bite.

The following are the results of this treatment From 1 10 lo 1824, Ihe number of persons admitted into Breslau Hospital was 84, of whom only two died 1783 to 1824 there were auuiiueti intoineunspiiai at 223 persons, bitten by diflcrint animals, (182 by dogs) of whom only four died. HOW TO CURE A tOI.D. The moment a man is satisfied he lias taken cold let him do three things first eat nothing; second, go to bed, cover tip in a warm room third, drink as much cold water as he can, or as he wants, as much herb tra as he can, and in three cases out of four, he will he well in thirty six houis. To neglect a cold for forty eight hours after the cough commences is to place himself beyond cure until the cold has run its course of about a fortnight. Warinlh and abstinence are safe and certain cures hen applied early.

Warmth keeps the pores of the skin open, and relieves it of the surplus of material for phlegm which would otherwise be coughed up. HOW TO CURE WHOOPINO COUOn. Whooping cough is a most distressing complaint, uot only to its victim, but lo others who are obliged to witness the painful effects which it produces. There is a simple remedy for whooping cough, which so far as our observation has extended, nays ihe editor of the N. Y.

proved efficacious. Jt is to remove the cliibl, say fitly or one hundred miles, in any directum, from the place where it is first taken. The cough stops or abates at once. The cure is attributed to the change of air. ODOR FROM PERSPIRATION.

The unpleasant odor produced by perspiration is treipiently the source of vexation to persons who are subject lo it. Nothing is simpler than to remove this odor much more eflecOially than by the application of such ingredients aud perfumes as are in use. It is pnly necessary to procure some of the compound spirits of ammonia antl place two tahle spoonful in a basin of water. Washing the face, hands and arms with this leaves the skin as clean and fresh as one could wish. The wash is perfectly harmless and very cheap.

It is recommended ou the authority of au ex perienced physician. GENERAL NEWS. The British army is being recruited in Canada.

For the Times and Dispatch. Messrs. Editors: If there is, one thing that is not done by halves in this city, it is that of sprinkling our streets. Whether each tire company or private individual who sprinkle streets has an interest in some patent purifier which they insist on foisting ou every family in the city who want pure and clean water or not, suffice it to say, that to have a clean, clear and pure glass of water at any time after 5 o'clock iu the morning, it is necessary tolii st filter it through some substance that will retain Ute mud and tilth, which is brought through the water mains to your hydrant. Cannot this matter be remedied I am told there is a general complaint over the whole city of muddy wafer, and they all claim, it is owing lo the incessant opening, to full force, of a dozen fire plugs, by a dozen different sprinklers, in a dozen part of the city, so that it is impossible to have clear water, at any time durmg the week, except, ossibly Sundays.

Talk about the health of the city I How can you expect any thing else but sickness from such a state of affairs as this? Heretofore our sprinklers were glad to haul their waler from the river, but they have got so high toned uow, that they growl if it is necessary to drive a half a square for it. 1 ho)ie the Waler Board wrll take this matter ih hand and see that the comlort and convenience of consumers ia taken iuto consideration, before that of such nuisances as muddy streets under the present system of sprinkling.

How to Prepare Pine Apples To many of our readers the pine apple is a delicious fruit, but vety few persons know how to slice and prepare them for Ihe table, and we vouch that they will be more than repaid for their trouble to prepare it as follows Slice it horizontally aud it chews hard and stringy; slice it lengthwise and it melts in your mouth.
