HER POINT OF VIEW.
Probably you aie wouylnB about
what to Rive him on t hiistnias. You
alwavs have worried since he has en
teied Into oui Chiistmas calculations
and doubtless will kiep up the strutr
Kle indennltely. Last jear It was a
sue bet airangement foi bis pajamas.
Ky accident ou have since learned
that be puzzled over It for some time
and Anally hung it up near his chiffon
ier under the benighted Impicsslon that
it vas some kind of a wall dicoiation.
The Christmas before jou Rave him
some silver thliiRs foi his disk, till of
whlth he keeps rellBlously put nwa In
a eliawer. toRether with ,u assortment
of lubber bands, the daik comphl m
of the latter now haimonl.inR mthei
closely with the sllur nitidis
The veai betoretli.it' Ah that was
the Old ISlue Delft ace. Ami vvi ought
with Infinite cnie a bureau sciuf (with h
he nlwavs called a lambiciiuin. Tin
avetaBe'inan tails most enibioldeiei
in licit h. not intended for weailiiB up
paiel, elthei iambi etiuius or tidies) and
which he dinped with consldeiablu
mental dlstui bailee over the mantel,
holding it In plate with u tobacco 1ar
nnd, Beneially speaking, an old pair
of Rloves and a vety odoious pipe, with
oeeaslonally a discarded collar by way
of gainltuie.
One time ou spent inunv pieelous
bonis in embiiddeilng foriret.nin.nmu
on a pall of white suspendeis A'our
undue piide in that gift was slightly
tlouded when jou nftetwaid dlstoveied
that tluee otber Rills had been similar
ly moved tow aid the object of all this
toil on your unit und had likewise be
stowed on the same voung man sus
pended mm ur less Identical in design,
vatvlng only In the shading of the
floweis. It was alwavs such u tantal
izing wnnelei which possesstd jou as
to whether he was wearing jour sn.
pendcis oi the other girls' and, of
toiirse. ou tould not well iiuiuiie, and
jou felt deeply Injuied when jour
In other casually reinnrked one day Unit
he expected to hear that Jack had torn
niitted suicide by hanging himself with
his binces.
AVhy don't you Blve him n sofa pil
low and not waste any moie concern on
the matter.' Next Christmas give him
anothei , the last ono will be soiled
by that time: nnd, nt nnv rate, if mhi
should ever marry him, you'll have the
sofa pillows. If ho hasn't a chafing
dish ho will enjoy that gift probably
moro than anything else, and that, too,
will be handy to have In tho house If
you should finally decide to keep him
for llfi.
To bo sure, joung men as a rule, un
less they are In college, cr loci tor
sofa pillows Until the nveinge woman
believes. Just watcn a man enter a
room und he will natuiolly turn aside
from a sofa billowing ovei with cush
ions and will settle himself In nn arm
chair, vvhleh offeis a welionilng linob
stiucted embrace Cither that, or he
will thiow himself upon a frail little

"See that one"' he umnikod, "tint

sitting on a puiple thunder HtormV"
His deseilptlon sounded like n Span

thi- pillow tllsdost'd a cieatlon of love

"Time's that Tuikish e ushlon." he
continued. ' When It was given to me
last veni by a gill I liked, too 1
thoURht It was nbniit the most sensible
thing in tho bunch, but she has left

It that gives me a rascally dig eveiy

WOOD PULP'S VARIOUS USES.
The Number of Things Made from It
Surpilslng to the Unlnlated.
It almost looks as If the old a)lnR

npply to wood pulp, Wood pulp 1ms
been used na a Htibstltue for lion,
steel, wood, stone, class, Ivory and in
numeinble kinds of nnlmnl nnd veKo
talile liber. As a nuinufncture for tur
wheels the manufacturers have found
It to be superior to any kind of me.
tnl, being about tluee times ius dutable
ns steel and much more elastic. It has
been found nv tillable us a mutellal for
paving hi Irks, drain tiling and con
duits for electric tables For Ivory,
which is becoming staiccr evety elay,
eelluloe is the best substitute that
has yet been found.
When pioperly tieated It Is piactlcat
I) proof against heat and niolstute;
hem e It has been found superior to
timber ns n material for telegraph poles
ami screws Cannon, too, nnd bicy
cles me mndo out of wood pulp In
fiei many and Chicago, respectively
while n Vi enchman has succeeded In
ptodliclug n thread from the snme sub
