Although every housekeeper is pain fully aware of the tendency of silver ware to part with its brilliance and become tarnished when exposed to ordinary atmospheric influences, many probably do not know that the cause of the tarnishing is the action of sulphur in the air. Unless frequent ly cleaned, the surface of silver will become black in the course of a few months. The best way to keep silver bright, without the necessity of clean ing, is said to be to coat the surface with a thin solution of collodion var nish diluted with spirits of wine. After being applied with a soft brush the spirit evaporates, leaving a thin, glossy, transparent film on the pol ished surface. Warm water removes the varnish. Tarnished silver may be restored by careful rubbing with a soft cloth wet with dilute solution of potas sium cyanide,—one ounce to a quart of water, —followed by rinsing. Art of Plnno Ornpintr. An excellent way for screening the unsightliness of the back of an up right piano when turned away from the wall, as all pianos of that design should be, to improve the tone and prevent a singer's facing the wall, is one in w'lich a three-paneled screen is hung on a rod attached to the back ot the piano f>t the top. The screen is made of three panels cf black satin embroidered in gold thread after the style of Japanese screens, panels being laced to gether i gold cord drawn through small hrsk;B rings sewed at intervals of two inches on the edge of the satin, ending in gold tassels at the bottom. The whole thing is then edged with a heavy black silk or gold cord. The effect is uncommon and adds much to the furnishing of a drawing room or music room, especially where the room admits of the piano being placed at one end, with tho keyboard facing the wall. Other material may be used, al ways selecting something of simple decorative pattern or one to match the other hangings of the room. 11l Paris draperies are made especially for this purpose, but there is danger of having them too close and heavy, thus deadening the tone of the instru ment. —Washington Star.
