AA ost A oa ists Rose" it would take a - long while winning favor. 1 am moved to make these reflec- tions because one of the best of our tender fruits suffers from a bad name, and I wish to proclaim the fact that its bad name is dun to a strange mistake. The very name gooseberry suggests something about which one could not hope to be eh- thusiastic in spite of the fact that gooseberry wine figures in the Vicar of Wakéfield, that literary master- piece in which everything is dainty. And the children who have not yet learned the disfavor that goes with the name "goose" will reach for gooseberry tart before any other, but the name "goose" puts all grown up- on their guard. And now comes a most philogist who proves the name is a vulgar and ignorant mistake. The berry is one that should be known as the Saintsberry--and the berry of the most beloved of saints at that. Mr. Fox Talbot gives the following remarkable account of the origin of the name *'gooseberry": Gooseber- ries are called in German, Johannis- beeren, that is, "John's berries," be- cause they ripen about the feast of St. John. St. John is called in Hol- °) called "Jansbeeren." Now this word has been--centuries ago--corrupted into "Gansbeeren," of which our English word Gooseberries is a liter- al translation; Gans in German sig- nifying a/goose. So you see that the only thing the matter with the delicately flavor- ed St. John's berry is that it has suf- fered from a touch of German Kul- tur and has been called out of its name. Give it its right name and be without jam from it for your tarts. g SEWING ROOM EQUIPPED FOR USE AND COMFORT The average household of moder- ate means, no matter how averse to the confusion of having a seamstress, cannot avoid . her semi-annual visit, and now that the date for the sum- mer sewing has arrived, here Is a reminder that this visitation need not necessarily be dreaded if the sew- ' Child's dress of white batiste with here and there a small embroidered figure.

And before the seamstress comes for her periodical visits it should be carefui- ly cleaned and olled that she nfay be able to do her best work. A clock should also be a part of the room's furnishings, = Convenien- ces for pressing and sponging should be provided, a well-covered ironing board, an electric iron, a sleeveboard and a basin for dampening cloths for pressing.

HOUSEKEEPERS ; Have You Heard Of a Cooking Coat? A Good Thing. Cooking coat. Did you ever use one? One woman said it was the, best arrangement for protecting the well dressed housewife that she had ever seen. It is one of the most convenient and practical garments one could devise for use in the kitch- en, especially for cooking. Some of us are compelled to be about the stove when we are freshly gowned and do not care to soil our clothes by frying grease or anything which might spatter on to a clean dress. Even flour will often leave spots which are not easily removed. Thus the cooking coat has been de- ised as a safe, sanitary and alto- plates around mounds of sugar.
