ver Asls Dresser—Pine Washstand
In White an<l Green.
For true harmony to exist in the fur
nishings of a room the dresser and
washstand should match. Before the
brass bedstead was introduced the bed
stead was also supposed to form one
of the set, but the brass model Is so
cleanly, so bright and attractive that
its coming cannot be too heartily wel
comed, and, after all, in a way the

two articles firing them Into relation
ship with it.
Following the same rule of harmony,
The Designer, the source of the illus
trations. advises as follow s:
Whatever colors appear in the fit
ments or decorations of the dresser
should be repeated In those of the wash
stand. If the cover, pincushion, etc.,
of the former are pink and white, for
Instance, the toilet set should be of
pink and white china, and if pretty lit
tle silver articles are laid out on the
dresser top the metal should appear In
the mountings of some of the boxes,
brushes, etc., on the washstand.
One of the prettiest and newest ideas
is to have the toilet set and the dresser
fitments of cut glass, even the wash
pitcher, which Is In large size, and the
bowl or basin l>eiiig of the transparent
substance, those who are using the sets
declaring they are no more likely to
break than fine china. Very little cut
ting Is used on the pitcher and basin,
both appearing as if made from clear
ice, but the smaller pieces of the set
are more elaborately decorated, the
powder box, scent bottles, pin trays,
etc., of the dresser matching them in
cutting.
On the newer washstand sets of por
celain but little gold appears in the dec
oration. rather large floral designs in
monotint or In natural coloring being
preferred.
Japanese, Moorish and Mexican wan s
In brilliant coloring and queer shapes
are also in favor, but these savor more
of oddity than of daintiness.
No lace or embroidered covering ap
pears on either stand or dresser, the
highly polished wood being rightly
deemed handsomer than any fancy cov
ering could be. Protection can be
given and the polished wood displayed
at the same time by having small mats
of line linen. Irish crochet or renais
sance lace of just large enough size to
go under the different articles.
A very handsome dresser is of silver
ash, with swell front drawers and a
mirror of sufficient size to give a full i
length reflection. This dresser stand* j
quite high from the floor on spindle j
legs; thus the shelf between the rows
of drawers can do duty as a dressing i
table. This dresser is a model much in
vogue at present and is a particularly

The washstand to the right is of
hard pine, enameled white, and lias a

color harmonizing with the furnishings
of the room. The washstand In this
case forms a set with the dresser and
the bed, the former being of hard pine,
white enameled, and the latter of iron,
also white enameled. The carpet atwl

The Mayor Wbo Couldn't Spell "Iff."
During the several terms that Tim
Campbell served In congress lie was al
ways prominent before the house. One
of his colleagues from Manhattan was
Colonel Jack Adams, who. a lawyer,
while he and Mr. Campbell were iu
congress together spent most of lila
time working off practical jokes at the
expense of the east side statesman.
Tim had been in and out of Tammany
Hall several times, those changes de
pending on whether his claims were
recognized or repudiated.
A very hot political canvass found
Tim one of the stanchest adherents of
the Hall. Colonel Jack had had a fall
ing out with the powers and was just
us strong on the other side. Tim took
this very much to heart, as his admira
tion for his fellow congressman was
very strong, lie concluded that, where
all others had failed to bring Colonel
Jack back Into the fold, he (Tim) could
succeed.
"Now, Jack," Tim said insinuatingly,
"what do you want togo and tight the
mayor for? Sure, lie's a fine young fel
low, bright and enterprising and one
of the best educated men in America."
"Educated:" exclaimed Colonel Jacl*
contemptuously. "Educated, did you
Bay?"
"Sure, lie's one of the very best edu
rated young fellows in this city."
"Educated!" reiterated Adams, put
ting an extra dose of contempt into his
voice. "What would you say, Tim, if 1
told you that he was so little educated
that he spells 'if with only one 'f V "
"Does he do that?" responded Tim in

In Cue of Fire.
In case of tire If the burning articles
are at ouce splashed with a solution of
salt and nitrate of ammonia an In
combustible coating Is formed. This Is
a preparation which can be made at
home at a trifling cost and should be
kept on hand. Dissolve 20 pounds of
common salt and 10 pounds of nitrate
of ammonia In 7 gallons of water.
Pour this Into quart bottles of thin
glass, and tire grenades are at hand
ready for use. These bottles must be
tightly corked and sealed to prevent
evaporation, and in case of fire they
must be thrown near the flames so as
to break and liberate the gas contain
ed. At least two dozen of these bottles
should be ready for an emergency.
In this connection it is well to re
member that water on burning oil scat
ters the flame, but that flour will extin
guish it. Salt thrown upon a tire
if the chimney is burning will help to
deaden the blaze.
If a fire once gets under headway, a
covering becomes a necessity. A silk
handkerchief moistened and wrapped
about the mouth and nostrils prevents
suffocation from smoke. Failing this,
a piece of wet flannel will answer.
Should smoke fill the room, remem
ber that It goes first to the top of the
room and then to the floor. Wrap a
blanket or woolen garment about you,
with the wet cloth over your face,
drop on your hands and knees and
crawl to the window.
Bear in mind that there Is no more
danger in getting down from a three
story window than from the first floor
if you keep a firm hold «,f t! rope or
ladder. Do not slide, but go ! ud over
hand.

Captain Foster was the commander
of the slave ship Clotilda that brought
the last cargo of slaves to the United
States. The trip was made only after
many thrilling scenes requiring weeks
of skillful maneuvering and dangerous
exploits. .lust before the north and
south engaged in war Captain Foster
built the Clotilda and announced that
he would make a trip to the gulf of
Guinea despite the fact that United
States war vessels had burned and
sunk the ships of many who tried the
voyage. He was warned repeatedly of
the dangers attached to such an under
taking. but he equipped his ship and
sailed away.
He reached the African coast after
going out of his course many times and
remained along the coast for it month.
He succeeded in getting 100 negroes on
board before he was detected by the
watchful vessels of the United States.
He was pursued, but easily outdis
tanced his pursuers, and two mouths
later arrived in Mobile bay with his
human cargo. A steamboat met the
slavesliip during the night, and the
negroes were transferred in order to
avoid the custom house officials. ( ap
taln Foster set his vessel on lire and
passed through Mobile without being
detected. The government authorities
hunted for him for months, but he
eluded them until the close of the war,
when lie retired from the sea.

SALT AND PEPPER.
Botli These Artleln Hitthlr Valuable
li> t\ Hygienic Sense.
A writer in the New York Evening
World says that salt and pepper are
not only of value in bringing out the
flavor of the food to which they are
added, but are very valuable from a
health standpoint.
In eastern countries the condiments,
such as pepper, are used to profusion in
all foods. Gastric troubles, common
enough iu other countries, are conspic
uously absent, and the free use of pep
per has much to do with that fact. Salt
and pepper work against fermentation.
When the stomach is out of order or, as
tlie common saying is, upset, it is in a
state of fermentation.
A certain very wise physician who
has advanced to the point where drugs
seem the unimportant thing and com
mon sense the important in making the
sick well Is advocating the use of pep
per and salt even in a glass of milk. It
improves the flavor to a remarkable de
gree, a fact you can prove to your own
satisfaction by taking two glasses of
milk, one In Its original simplicity, the
other changed by the addition of a
pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, then
sip a little of each. The chances are
that you will prefer the seasoned milk.
Besides Improving the flavor and
overcoming the tendency toward fer
mentation, the pepper will practically
disable any microbes that may be float
ing in the fluids. Thus the gastric juices
will perform their perfect work of
changing microbes to food.

There are a couple of European dai

regards the cow in tills connection
about the same as Americans do the

Costly Wines,
Our millionaires think s7f> a gallon
for raro old Madeira an utterly impos
sible price simply because their tastes
are blunted by champagne, and they
care no more for a bottle of Welsh Re
serve, Newton Gordon or Cliillings
worth-Oglethorpe than for a cheap
sherry. In the famous eelkirs of the
Ilotel de Ville at Bremen there are a*
dozen cases of holy wine which have
been preserved for 250 years. A mer
chant figures out that if the cost of
maintaining the cellars, payment of
rent, interest upon the original value of
the wine and other Incidental charges
are considered a bottle of this choice
Madeira has cost no less than $2,000,-
each glassful $270,000, and a single
drop could not be sold without loss un
der S2OO.
It is probable that this very old wine
Is worthless on account of "starvation."
Charles Ilellows, our ablest authority
on Madeira, says that it becomes
"starved" after feeding upoa Its own
lees for 30 or 4o years. "It seems to
me that it Is very human and requires
companionship," he says. "Demijohns
of the same variety should be blended.
The marriage of the two wines would
probably give the lees more character,
and the wine would thus continue to
Improve. This certainly ought to be
done as a tonic after the Madeira has
been 50 years in glass."—New York

Peculiarities of Aiitbmi.
The peculiarities of asthma are well
known, and one New York woman
thinks that she has more than usual
reason to complain of the vagaries of
the disease. She bad always lived In
the lower part of the city on one of the
avenues distant from the two rivers
and bad suffered in no unusual degree
from asthma when the weather was
not unfavorable. The doctor was not
consulted when her husband bought a
house in another part of the city, and
It is Indeed doubtful if he could have
foreseen the effect upon her of living
In the new neighborhood.
It took the sufferer only a few hours
to realize that it would be impossible
for her to live in the new house, which
was only a short distance from the
North river. Her discomfort became
so great that she was compelled i\t the
end of a week to give up all attempt to
reside there, and the house that had
been built with so much care and ex
pense had to be abandoned.
Another example of the vagaries of
asthma Is to be found in the case of a
New Yorker who Is comfortable enough
In this city so long as he lives on the
upper stories of a lofty hotel or other
residence building, but is In great dis
tress so soon as he Is compelled to be
on terra firma.—New York Sun.

The most costly state funeral which
has ever taken place was perhaps that
of Alexander the Great. A round mil
lion was spent in laying Alexander to
his rest. The body was placed in a
coffin of gold, tilled with costly aro
matics, and a diadem was placed on
the head. The funeral car was embel
lished with ornaments of pure gold,
and its weight was so great that It
took 84 mules more than a year to con
vey it from Babylon to Syria.
The Hank of Venice, the first estab
lishment of the kind in Europe, was
founded in 1171. It continued In ex
istence without interruption until the
overthrow of the republic in 1797 by

When, tho stern lJuko of Wellington
was prime minister under George IV,
he managed the old monarch easily
enough, but when he attempted the
same tactics with the young Queen
Victoria he met his match. She con
stantly outwitted him. One of Ids
earliest official acts was to bring he
fore her a court martial death sentence
which he expected her to sljxu as a
matter of course. A soldier was to be
executed for desertion, and as tlie
death warrant was placed before the
queen by the duke she raised her eyes,
full of tears, to Ids face, saying:
"Have you nothing to say In behalf
of this poor man?"
"Nothing," said the duke, standing at
attention like one of his own privates;
"he has deserted three times."
"Oh, your grace, think again," plead
ed the queen as If she were asking for
the life of her dearest friend.
"Well, your majesty, lie certainly Is
a bad soldier, but there was somebody
who spoke for his good character, lie
may be a tolerably good fellow lu civil
life."
"Oh, thank you," said the queen in
heartfelt tones, and before the aston
ished duke could utter a word of'pro
test she had written across the paper
the word "Pardoned."
Hon Do Von Pronounce "ISoitf"

wish, but no other dictionary does.
You should really sound the "o" as in
not. Likewise how do you pronounce

that a friend has written the following

WHEN THE BEES SWARM.
Iloiv to llivp Them AVitli a liasUet.
The Quei'ii Trap a Xeal Affair.
If the cluster is low, it is easy to
hive a swarm of bees. Slip a basket
right up under the cluster and jar the
limb. If the bees have clustered high
up in a tree, get a pole long enough to
reach theui and fasten the basket to
klu end of it. A common peach basket
will do very well. When you have the
basket riv'lit up under the cluster, give
the pole a sharp jerk upward, which
motion will jar the limb, and the bees
will drop into the basket. Have the ,
hive under the tree and dump the bees
in front of it, and they will march in
like an army. The hives should be
raised an iueh or two In front to give
them air. The bees will commence to '
give a contented hum, and if there are
any remaining on the tree they will
hear it and join the rest. In the even- j
in>r the hive can be carried to the loca
tion where it is to remain.
Sometimes a swarm will cluster on
the trunk of a tree or wall; then it will
be necessary to use a brush to got
them into Hie basket. The ringing of |
bells and beating of pans and all such
notions are of no avail. A first swarm ]
will most always settle. I have never
yet seen It to miss, provided the queen
was with them, and if the queen is not
with them they will most surely return j
to their hive. Sometimes a swarm will
hang ou a tree all day.and then again
they may depart in a little while. It is
better to hive them within a half hour t
after they have issued if possible.
Still a better way is to have queen j
traps ou the hive to catch the queen.
With the queen traps It is a delight to
hive swarms. When the swarm issues, .
the queen cages herself and cannot j
leave witi. the bees. The swarm will
cluster on some tree, win u the apiarist ,
can replace the old hive with an empty
one and place Mie way v»uii the luicn \
In front of the new hive 011 the old
stand. The bees will remain from 10,
to 20 minutes, when they will return,
and enter the new hive. The apiarist
can then release the queen, ami she
will run in with the swarm, ami the
hiving is done, says F. (J. Herman In
