The wedding was a brilliant function. and was attended by a large gathering of the members of the British Royal family. contin- ental sovereigns or their representaâ€" tives, and many members of the highest nobility. The weather was beautiful, and if there is any truth in the old proverb, "Happy is the bride whom the sun shines on,” the new Duchess of York will be exceed- ineg happy, for a. more splendid day has seldom been seen in London. The occasion was made one of naâ€" tional rejoicing and a partial Britâ€" ish holiday. Great crowds of pco- ©0©o©wwome~os THE ROYAL PARTY.

Edinburgh Victoria. Princesses Holstein, BACK TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE; 0n the way back to Buckingham palace from the Royal chapel the procession was led by the carriage} of the Queen. Her Majesty, who was accompanied by the Duchess of Teck, was wrapped in a. white Tnâ€"‘ dian shawl. She gave instructions that the carriage should proceed slowly in order that she might view the decorations. This gave the' crowds along the route an opportunâ€"' ity to again see her Majesty, and shel was enthusiastically cheered. 1 Following the Queen came the car-I riage of the bride and bridegroom." ’l'he newlyâ€"wedded pair were animaty edly talking, only occasionally stopâ€" ping their conversation to salute the‘ crowd in response to the cheers with| which they were welcomed. InnnenSe' crowds were assembled in the Mall.i Bird Cage Walk, the upper part of: St. James’ park, and in the vicinity! of Buckingham palace. Even in[ Grosvenor place, back of the Palace gardens, from which nothing of the' procession could be seen, peoplely stood packed and jammed. Buckingâ€"‘ ham palace road was also crowdedl as far could be seen. I AN OVA'I‘ION. Shortly after the Royal party enâ€"V tered the palace, the Queen, the} Duke of York and his bride, and the! Duke and Duchess of Teck appeared; upon the balcony. As they stepped. l l l out the crowd before them went wild with enthusiasm. Such cheer- ing and such long continued expresâ€" sions of popular approval have sel- dom, if ever, been equalled in Lonâ€" don. So prolonged was the ovation that a chair was brought to the bal- cony and the Queen seated herself. She appeared to be suITering a little from the heat, and as she sat in the chair she slowly fanned herself. Her face plainly showed the pleasure she felt at the enthusiasm of the crowd. The faces of the Dulce and Duchess of York beamed with happiness, and they repeatedly bowed and smiled as the salvos of applause and the cheers of the multitude were repeatâ€" ed again and again. The Duchess of York looked charmingly beautiful. She carried in one hand a. bouquet of Provence roses, orchids, and orâ€" ange blossoms.

If you can get pans with high sides, you will find them nicer, as it keeps the bread from spreading apart or runâ€" ning over the sides. To insure good baking powder bis- cuit, care must be taken to keep the dough Very soft, so soft in fact that you are only just able to get them up and into the pan: and they must be baked quickly in a very hot oven. Never roll out your dough thinner than an inch. When bread or biscuit becomes stale, you can freshen it by pouring a little hot water over the loaf and draining it oi'i- quickiy; then set it in the oven to heat through, and it will be good as new. When crackers become soft from long standing, put them in a pan, and bake them over. They will be as crisp as new ones. Yeast without hops: Twelve large potatoes boiled, mashed and pressed through a. sieve; add 3 qts lukewarm water, 1 cup yeast, 1 cup salt and 1 cup sugar. Mix thoroughly and set in a, warm place four or five hours. When bubbles rise, it is ready for use. One teacup of this yeast will make three quart-loaves, and no sponge is necessary. Keep in g-gal. jars, corked tight, and in a cool place. It will be good for weeks. Bread: Pare and boil 6 good- sized potatoes, drain off the water, mash fine, pour over them about 3 pts lukewarm water, and run through a collander. Add flour until this is a thin batter, then put in 1 cup coffee yeast. Let stand until it rises, then stir in flour, as much as you can, with a spoon, and let rise again. Work in enough more flour to knead rather still‘ and let rise the third time. When light, this time work out into loaves and let rise. Crackers: One egg, White only, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teacup sweet milk, a; teaspoon soda, and 1 teaâ€" spoon cream tartar. Mix very stifi', beat well, roll thin and bake.

If not quite stiII enough, add flour. Bake in a quick oven. There are multitudes of Women who do their own housework and whose mothers and grandmothers did before them, who, though tired alâ€" most to the point of nervous col- lapse, or even when half sick, never think of asking their "men folks” to get a meal or do kitchen work. Many women of the old’ school seem to think it out, of place for a. man to wash dishes or make bread. Of course the average mun, unin- structed innocent as he is, does look awkward in his wife's kitchen.

A correspondent tells of an experi- ment she made in cleaning her wall paper. She says : “I used pulverized pumice stone and flour, four ounces of the pumice powder to one quart. of flour, making a. thick paste or dough. Roll out as wide as the wall paper in length and two inches thick, then inclo.se the dough in a. piece of muslin and sew it on and boil them about three-quarters of an hour, when the rolls Will be hard and firm and ready for use. You will have to use the wash boiler. as nothing else in the kettle line will be large enough to accommodate the broken lengths of the strips. These rolls are then used for rubbing over the soiled portions of the paper. Not only will they take out ordinary dirt spots. but grease as Well. Af- ter the rubbing the paper should be dusted off carefully with a. Clean cloth, and if any dirt remains go over the surface again. This re- moves the dirt much better than the bread process, which I have tried also. It cleans like a charm.” Take any soft, strong cloth, of all wool, and the same amount of Can- ton flannel; let the hand he laid flat on a piece of paper marked round with a pencil, then cut out a. pat- tern, allowing for seams; cut the lining bias so as to have a spring to it : stitch the flannel and lining sep- arate, turn the seams together inâ€" side, bind the wrist, leaving the mit- ten open two inches on the under part of the hand, work a buttonhole on one side, sew a strong button on the other, and you will have a. dur- able mitten.
