One of the perplexing questions of house furnishing is the arrangement of the furniture; how to place the various pleces in order to obtain the best resiits. If the room under consideration is the library where shall the bookoases stand? where place the reading ta- ble? how loeate the chairs? If the room is the dining room, how arrange sideboard and serving table and oth- or pieces so that comfort for the fam- ily and convenience for the servants are obtained? If the room is a sleep- ing apartment how dispose the furni- ture so that light, air and privacy are secured? } Oftentimes when the library, living room and dining room are faultless, the bedrooms of the house are lack- iog in any plan or forethought in the arrangement of the furniture, says the Washington Times. The bed faces a window, making sleep impossible af- ter’ sunrise, or the dressing table is in a dark corner where little light is obtained. Guest rooms are usually the greatest offenders against com- fort, for they are seldom occupied by the’ members of the family, and thus their various shortcomings are unno- ticed. A polite guest does not care to draw attention to the negligen€e of his hostess or the oversight of the architect. The latter is, of course, ‘not responsible for the location of the furniture, unless he has provided in- sufficient wall space which is an oc- casional architectural sin. Where a room is so cut up by doors and win- dows that the only available space for the bed is opposite a window, the architect is largely to blame. If the exposure be an eastern one the an- noyvance is deepseated. Heavy shades are seldom sufficient to shut out the aarly morning sun. Again, in shutting out the sun, the direct means of air may be cut off also. Another fault, common to many bedrooms, lies in the senseless plac- ing of the fixtures. Possibly the room is lighted by a small chandelier with four burners. In addition, there are doubtless side lights. It is in the placing of the latter that comfort is disregarded. Two lights are the com. mon appropriation, and these usually decorate the side wall, which is least hroken by openings. The sole pur- pose of these lights is, presumably, to give illuminatign for comfortable dressing. The dressing table is plac- ed so as to get the best light hy day. The fixtures are as far as possible from this point. A little forethought might have located the two together. Another serious fault in bedrooms is the lack of privacy in the placing of the furniture. The open door re- veals the whole arrangement. The hed and the dressing table, if possi ble, should be so located that they are invisible from the hall. In the other rooms of the house, good taste and common sense go hand in hand. It is less easy to go astray in the dining room, for pieces are often built in, or, lacking this scheme, plain spaces are left for sideboard and serving table. In the living room, book and maga- zine tables should be placed so ag to receive light; chairs for reading should be near at hand, ard book- cases, not too high for easy access, should line the walls. Comfort and convenience are the hand-maidens of a well furnished house—both of far greater import: ance than expemse and luxury. HOME LIFE OF THE CHINESE. The home life of the Chinese is less familiar to Americans than that of any other foreign mation represented in this country. After the manmer of their forefathers, the Chinese hold to conservative ideas for their wom- en, and with few exceptions, where the feminine members of the ‘fami’ have taken to attending meetings and clubs in public. Americans do not get So much as a peep at the dainty little women upon whom we bestow so much sympathy, but who, if the truth be known, are far happier than the majority of those who pity them. The keynote of Chinese home life as it is lived in this country is content- ment. The wife and mother is hap- py with her hushand, who, despite ‘his scattered business interests, be he even a highbinder or a profession. al fan-tan man, is devotion itself to his family. She thoroughiy enjoys her children, her cozy home with its musical instruments, its flowers, and the domestic pets. All Chinese wom- en are taught: to play the young cum, a. zither-like instrument, and the ma- jority of them sing the queer oriental songs, which are verses of the class- ies set to music. Without exception, there are flowers in almost every win- dow ofa Chinese home, though the home consists of only two rooms, as many of them in New York do. These women know nothing of the opera, the horse shows, dinners, and grapd cotillors; among the Chinese women there are no passee maidens who af. ter three or four seasons are still un- sought in marriage, and there are na divorces. Their very ignorance of the world is the safeguard of their con tentment, and why any one who is content and happy should be the ob- ject of pity and sympathy from woridlings is a problem for Confu- ciuslike wisdom te solve.—Harriet WASH DRESSES FOR WINTER. Wash dresses for house Wear are one of the innovations this fall, and they will be worn all winter, Gradu- ally women have been working up to it by discarding flannel waists for cotton waists, and now the cotton, lin. en or gingham skirt has followed. Women say there are three com. mon sense reasons why the winter wash dresses should be popular. In the first place, they can be kept clean- er. Even if a houge is heated hy steam or hot water there is always a great deal of dust circulating in the heated rooms, and this soon means a soiled gown. If a woolen gown is worn the dust and dirt keeps on grinding in until the dress becomes almost gritty, for it cannot be cleansed save at the cleaner’s, and this is expensive, But the wash dress can be put into the tub every week, to be made fresh, crisp and attractive, In the second place, when a woman has been accustomed all spring and summer to light weight clothing she finds the heawier winter apparel a de- cided drag on her. So she impatient- ly pulls off the heavy woolen ZOoWNn and slips into a comfortable ifnen or gingham one. For a third reason, she says hy- giene teaches that light clothing for street wear means better health. Of course, there is always the ex- cellent reason of economy for five wash dresses may be purchased where only one woolen gown is pos- sible, and then a woman may use in winter the gingham dresses of the past summer, which will be a little out of fashion the following summer, but are all right for house wear.— American Cultivator. HAIR ORNAMENTS. Rich design and much ornamenta- tion is the order of things with hair onaments. The empire style seems to take precedence over others, though there is always the conservative comb, which, with its plain gold rim, if of unquestionably good taste. Speak- ing of back combs, the new idea 18 a high back—at least an inch wide. Usually this is elaborately decorated with carving, filigree, gold and jew- els. : There are shell,combs with gold and silver inlaid, and set with rhine- stones or diamonds. There are those with simple designs of inlaid gold, and others with clusters of rhine- stones set in silver in the form of wreaths and bows, placed on the broad, plain shell band. The rhine- stones in the silver imitate diamonds in platinum, says the Philadelphia North American. The three kinds of gold finish most used in this elaborate decoration are antique, Roman and rose. Stones are set therein to harmonize—olivines, aquamarines, amethysts, sapphires, rubies, baroque pearls, and so on. A style that will De exceedingly prominent is a direct copy of the old fashioned balltop combs. Balls carv- ed from the shell and ranging in size from a quarter inch to three-quarters, are arrayed across the top of a some- what narrow, long<4toothed comb, 100k- ing for all the world like grandmoth- er's relic of fashionable times in the 50's. There is something decidedly new in barettes. They are being designed to correspond with the gold and jew- el designs cf the combs, FASHIONS IN FEATHERS. Flaunting plumage of most . vivid colorings, deck the winter hat of the woman of fashion, and, curiously enough, not even the most brilliant to suit the millinery freak of the moment. 3 Peacock tail plumage is used in its metallic blue-green shade, while the tail feathers cof the same bird are dyed a rich brick red. A Lendon milliner tempted her cus- tomers with a purple hat of the Gains- borough type, which was one glorious mass of that magnificent color known as eminence. The feathers on the hat repeated the dye. A single ostrich feather perched up- right, with the tip dropping over a diamond diadem, is a form of adorn- ment that is very extraordinary, but truly piquant when worn by a hand- some woman in her hair as the coif- fure ornament that accompanies an empire evening robe. The color must match the gown, Brilliant, indeed, are ‘the orange and amber marabou feathers, which are as. fluffy as a duckling’s coat, and like a resy cloud is’ the same plum- age when dyed a bright cerise, Startling as these colors are, they look refined, because the mellow pig: ments of the paintings of the great French ‘artist, 'Nattier, and those ot his’ contemporary, De Largilliere, are closely copied. Nattier blue is at present a most fashionable dye for millinery plumage.—New Haven Register. FASHION NOTES. It is difficult to find in the shops a simple crepe or chiffon waist which an elderly woman or one of quiet tastes might wear. The craze for lace is at its height at the present time. Waists, gowns, coats, hats of rich lace are being ac- quired by every woman who can af ford them, and it is bad news to learn Quimby in Leslie's Weekly. - that the prices are higher than ever. house wear and heavier clothing for. MEN WHO CORNERED COINS. INSTANCES THIS HAS WITH PROFIT. Curious Way in Which a French Criminal Swindled Credulous Peas: ants—A Remarkable Case That Oc- curred in South Russia Two Years Ago. Nearly every one nas come across indtviduals who are under tue delus- fon that English 1861 pennies contain a large percentage of gold, says Tit Bits. The gold, of course, is non-ex- istent. But that fact has not pre- vented many estimable individuals collecting all the 1861 pennies they could lay their hands upon with a view to melting them dpwn. A Brad- ford man named Meyers, who died last year, used to boast that he pos- sessed 7,000, He estimated their value at £135. In small towns it is quite possible to corner, for a limited period, coins of any one denomination. At a Welsh holiday resort the local band was so indignant at the large proportion of halfpennies in its “silver collections” that it locked up every ‘halfpenny re- ceived. In a few weeks there was hardly a halfpenny in the town, and the band thenceforth reaped a har- vest of pennies. A Manchester man was so struck by the inconvenience which resulted that, on returning home, he opened a “Copper 'Change,” where, for a small commission, he re- ceived packages of pence from those whose business brought them in too many giving them silver in exchange. In 1899 an Irishman of Cashel made a bet that thirty single shillings could not be got in all the saops on a certain day. For days in advance he changed innumerable sovereigns and bank notes, thus cornering prac- tically all the silver. He won his bet, his opponent, who was of course, in ignoraace of the trick, being able to scrape together only eleven shillings. Cornering coins with criminal in- tent led to a Bayonne Frencaman named Bornier getting five months imprisonment in August last. Bornier cornered several thousand 1888 sou pieces, and sold them at fifty cen- times (10 cents) each to simple-mind- ed peasants, by declaring that the French Government was going to make each sou bearing the date token money for one franc. He swindled over 200 persons before being appre- hended. The ordinary type of the 1887 six- pence, taough worth nothing more than its nominal value, has been al- most completely cornered by a num- ber of individuals who believe that it will rise in price as a memento of Queen Victoria's jubilee. Of the tens of thousands issued from the mint few specimens are now in circulation. IN SOME BEEN DONE Cornering gold coins demands a capital which few men possess. At Dieppe, however, some years ago, there was a sudden scarcity of ten franc and twenty franc pieces, which was traced to an American visitor named Bragg, who, for some cryptic reason, nad the day before changed several hundred bank notes of high value for gold. Laden with the coins he left for Paris and it was not for a week that the mormal amount of gold returned to the town. Superstition has led many ignorant individuals to collect large numbers of coins of a particular denomiration. A remarkable case occurred in South Russia two years ago. A “prophet” appeared at Berdiansk, on the Sea of Azoy, and proclaimed that he had come to save the world. Meeting with a bad reception from the townspeople, he tramped inland and gained many peasant adherents. Among other queer doctrines, he preached that all five copeck pieces issued in 1831, the year of the emancipation of the serfs, were “holy.” Taey were to be brought to him for preservation in an oaken chest. When Russia got into difficul- ty all these coins would turn to gold and save the Empire. Over an area of 300 square miles the peasants feverishly set about col- lecting the holy money. When tae prophet had collected about £40 worth he decamped, after changing them at a local bank for gold. An attempt to corner the Maria Theresa dollars, which are used as currency in many parts of northern Africa, collapsed owing to a queer cause. An Abyssinian, Ras Makoppo, conceived tne ingenious idea of col- lecting all specimens of these coins extant in his district. As thoy were old coins he reasoned they would rise in value. After he had possessed him- self of about 2,000 he found that the country was as well supplied with them as ever. While he had been busy collecting them modern Maria Theresa dollars made in Germany were being imported by the thousand. The result was that the coin feil in value, and the too astute chief lost half his wealth. The Russian Government corners its own coins. Every year it mints a limited .number of bionze coins of the nominal value of one-quarter -0- peck, in English value one-six- teenth of a penny. As these coins are practically mot in circulation only a few are issued. The remainder are sold by the mint authorities at about double their value for use as card counters. Birmingham boasts the only man who corners bad coins. This gentle- man has a unique collection of false money. Some years ago he issued a notice to various trades people that he would give one-quarter of the nom- inal value for certain specimens of counterfeit coins which might have been passed upon them. He ngw pos- sesses several thousand, some so like good money that the«fraud is not per- ft Is hard to understand how my tradesman could have been taken in. EARTHQUAKES, PROOF AGAINST Designing Buildings to Withstand Moderate Shocks. In Japan many of the cottages built in districts afflicted with earth. euakes are of wood, and have frames designed “0 as to be uniore or less elastic, They will yield without breaking, and will recover their orig: inal form after a temporary distor- tion, These dwellings are good ones to live in, and are far more secure than rigid walls of brick or stone, In Northern India similar problems are presented by the same evil, In an engineering periodical printed in that pare of the world, J, H. Stephens says that, besides the material employeu in building, some attention can profit- ably, be paid to the soil under the foundation. If a souu structure rest. ed on a cushion of ruvber it would stand a good deal of shaking before it would collapse. It has been found that when a bunding rests on a bed of clay it is liable to continual motion. In the wet weather the clay expands and tae building is raised upward. In the hot weather the clay contracts and the building is lowered. The result is that such buildings, however well constructed, are very much cracked. The clay bed seems to have lines of least resistance, which can be traced for miles in the hot season by open fissures in the surface of the earth. Where a building intercepts such a fissure in the surface of the clay bed there is a large crack in the walls and roof of the building. However good the quality of the construction, noth- mg can save the building from ecrack- ing, and the opening is invariably in line with the cleavage in tae bed of clay. Mr. Stephens says that he and two other engineers, named Chisholm and Irwin, decided to counteract tne ten- dency by going down to permanent moisture. They then filled toeir foun- dation trench with compressed sand and started their walls. Such build- ing, though erected on clay and sub- jected to all the variations of expan- sion and contraction in the clay sub- soil, yet never cracked. These facts lead Mr. Stepaens to sav: “Is tnis security due to the cushion of sand below the foundation? If a cushion of sand can protect a build- ing from the motion due to the con- traction and expansion of the subsoil, can it also, in a certain degree, pro- tect a building from the motion due to an earthquake? Do you not think that the matter is worth experiment- ing on? In Calcutta and in the North generally, where eargnquakes have al- ready done so much damage, I am not aware that any aftempt has heen made to protect buildings or to do anything to mitigate the evil. It is hopeless, pernaps, to do anything to existing buildings. But I understand that large building schemes are in the air, especially the grand Victoria Memorial. Can notaning be done to protect these? A good cushion of sand has been frequently tried down South, and has resisted the motions in the subsoil caused by expansion and con- traction. It is true that this motion is slow compared to the motion in the subsoil caused by an earthquake, but what has done complete good in one case may do a little good in the other. At any rate, it ought to be worta ex- perimenting on. There may be ways of using this or any other material by whicn .ae shock of an earthquake may be averted.”—New York Tribune, A CURIOUS INDUSTRY. An Out-of-the-Way Enterprise That is Bringing in Modest Wealth. Very while the busy world is tearing along ‘seeking fortunes in wide and well-known fields, hidden away quietly there is seme modest lit- tle industry going along and bringing in a nice little sum to the sharp mind that has known how to seek wealth in untrodden or little-known patas. Among such out-of-the-way enter- prises we may mention a curious agri- cultural industry which is being profit- ably carried on at Varedales, near meaux, France. It consists in the manufacture of preserved sorrel, which is put up in tins or small casks, and exported to all parts of the world, for use as a culinary and table acces- sory. This industry was started at Varedales in the year 1860, but it still remains practically unknown to the world at large. It requires a mo- tive power of about 8 horse-power while a quantity of steam (repre- senting 17 norse-powe:) is also used for boiling and cocking purposes. As the water used must be extremely pure, an artesian well has been sunk often in the grounds of the factory, and vields a’ supply of the necessary me- dium which, like the immortal Bay- ard, is ‘sans reproche.” Sorrel can only be grown four years in succession upon the same land, which: must then be put under’ other crops for about twelve years. Hence tne land bought up for tae purpose covers a superficial area of 120 hectares (296 acres). When pick- ed (for which sixty women are cm- ployed) the leaves are conveyed, as quickly as possible, to the factory; nere they are carefully washed by mechan- ical means, and are then well cooked in specially-designated digesters or boilers. This interesting industry, which is by no means unprofitable, would well repay cousideration, as there is plenty of room for a niuch larged trade to be done in presepved sorrel—by no means an unpalatable table adjunct.—Scientific American; Madrid is at last to bave a large ceptible; some 2 clumsily made that and first-class hetel, PIGS AS DRAUGHT ANIMALS. Sow That Could Retrieve Birds— Fourin-Hand of Pigs. In many countries and even so near as Scotland the pig has served the purpose of a beast of draught, and has actually been harnessed to the plough in of mpany with cowg and horses. In Scotland also early in the last century plgs were made to serve as chargers and proved mest docile mounts, The homing instinct is strongly de- veloped in the pig. Instances not infrequently occur of pigs finding thelr way back to farms whence they have been conveyed. There is a rec- ord of two pigs homing nine miles, and crossing the Thames to boot, to their old farm, whence they kad been driven to Reading market and bought by a local gentleman on the previous day. At one point on their homeward journey where two roads met the twain were observed “putting their noses together as if in deep consul- tation.” About 1815 a London gentleman created a sensation by driving a four. in-hand of pigs through the streets, and thirty years later an old farmer caused amusement to a great crowd in the market place at St. Albans by entering it in a chaise drawn by four trotting logs. After two or three turns reund the market he drove to the Woolpack Yard, where his curi- ous steeds were unharnessed and led away to be regaled with a trough of beans and wash. They have also been sporting pigs. And old account of a black sow which Mr. Richard Toomer, one of the royal keepers in the New Forest, broke to find game and to back and stand says: “Within a fortnight she would find and point partridges or rabbits, and her training was much forward- ed by the abundance of both, * * * She daily improved, and in a few weeks would retrieve birds that had run as well as the best pointer; nay, her nose was superior to the best pointer.” According to Linnaeus, “the hog 1s more nice in the selection cf his vege- table diet than any of our other do- mesticated herbivorous animals.” Thus in one respect the pig may be said to be an epicure. Linnaeus states that the animal will cat omly 72 plants, as against the goat’s 449, the sheep’s 287, the cow’s 276, and the horse's 262.—London Daily Express. Poison Plants. The colors of fowers and leaves of- fer numbers of interesting problems. No one quite knows why the prevail ing tint of early spring flowers is either white or yellow. Yellow, 1n- deed, holds its own to some extent all through the summer, but the typl- cal color of summer blocms is pink, while as the autumn advances richer crimsons and all the rich glowing simetimes | hues of dahlias and chrysanthemums | are seen. Horticulturists have produc- ed poppies of pretty nearly shade under the sun, and with many other flowers they seem able to alter the co'ors almost as they please, Yet the blue rose, the black tulip and the green carnation seem as far off as ever they were in spite of con- stant efforts to arrive at them. Near- ly three centuries ago Dutch garden: ers imagined themselves on the verge of inventing a black inlip. The col- ors of the blossoms of fruit trees are limited to weite, pink, bright scarlet and purple. The reason no one knows. Nor is it clear why nearly all plants with purple blossoms have poisonous properties, The deadly nightshade is an instance which will be familiar to all country readers.— Pearson's Weekly. A Professor's Indorsement. Before President Angell of the Uni- versity of Michigan had attained to his present high position a young hopeful entering college was recom- mended to his consideration, “Try the boy out, professor; criticise him and tell us both what you think” the parents said. To facilitate acquaint- ance the professor took the boy for After ten minutes silence the ventured, “Fine day, profes- a walk. youth sor.” “Yes,” with a faraway look. Ten minutes more and the young man, squirming all the time, ventur ed, “This is a pleasant walk profes- sor.” “Yes.” For ancther ten minutes the matrl- culate boiled to his bones and then blurted out that he thought they might have rain, “Yes.” And this time the profes- sor went on: “Young ian, we have been walking together for half an hour, and you have said nothing which was not commonplace and stupid.” “True,” answered the boy, his wrath passing his modesty, “and you indorsed every word I said.” Then they laughingly shook hands, and word went home from the profes- sor that the boy was all right and that they were great friends.—De- troit Free Press. Testing a Building's Safety. When you suspect that anything is going wrong with a public building, say St. Paul's Cathedral or the Abbey, and a crack appears, you paste brown paper across the crack.

He says that no one but a small group of revolutionary agitators desires to overturn the order of things at pres- ent existing. “Nevertheless, Tolstoi declines to. make any predictions, and says that it is impossible to say what may hap- pen. In any case, it will be necessary to overturn the present Government, which is founded on a policy of force, and to supplant it by another regime, based on the love of others, goodness and the maxims of Christianity. — Translation in the Literary Digest. Work of a Beaver Colony. If the beavers continue their work on a dam across the North Fork just above the bridge across the river east of Hotchkiss, they will ultiznately cause several dollars’ worth of dam- age to property in that vicinity when high water comes in the spring. A present the little fellows have near! twenty feet of their work completeg and the water is rushing against without appreciable damage. Mr. Thomas Blackwell who has lease on the Metcalf property, Wro to the State game warden, askin what can‘ be done about the matte the law not allowing beavers to Bb killed. The warden replied the bea ers belonged to the State, but a pe! mit could be granted for $1 to kil ten or twelve beavers, provided the, were doing damage, but that the pelts must be carefully prepared and sSiip- ped to the warden for sale, whepe- upon onehalf of the proceeds will be returned for the “trouble” in ecatch- ing them. A dam such as the beavers build will back the water up onto the Met- calf property and wash away a large part of the place. Besides that the beavers are cutting down a large number of trees now on the place, and, situated so near town, the growth is of some value—North Fork, (Kan.) Times. { wi ——————— “Kerchunk” ‘Did it. A train on one of the new rail roads in southern Kansas was run- ning Jown a grade, says the Kansas City Star, when one of the side rods of the engine broke. The train stop- ped at the foot of the grade with the good cylinder “on center,” and when the broken side had been un- coupled the engine could nct be start- ed. 4 The engineer, the conductor and the passengers took turns trying( to Ade- vise a way to start it. At last a fapm- er’s boy crawled through a barb wire fence and came over to make a sSug- gestion. “Why don’t you let ‘er go Xker- chunk?” he asked. “What?” demanded the conductor, not grasping the idea. “Why, let ’er go kerchunk. Un- hitch the last car and shove 'er up the grade a-ways. Then let ’er down kerchunk against the train. That'll bump her along some.” The railroad men siiffed contemp- tuously, but the passengers sided with the boy, so at last it was decided to try his scheme. All hands turned to and pushed the car a little way up the hill. Then it was sent with in- creasing speed back against the train, - which it struck with the foreseen ‘kerchunk.” The “kerchunk’ did the. work. The engine was bumped off center, the engineer gave it enough steam to keep it slowly moving, the passengers scrambled abroad, and the one-legged outfit limped away on its journey. Society Using Artificial Flowers. The ballroom which was the scene last winter of James H. Hyde's now famous French costume ball was Jdec- orated with artificial flowers, and so Artificial have been many others. flowers had a certain vogue at New- port last season, and NOW in . all the smart drawing-rooms, Where the income of the best might well war- rant the use of fresh blossoms, are roses of batiste amd silk, and orchids of silk and velvet, so skilfullly prt together that a few feet away it would be impossible to discover the decep- tion. They are not cheap, these dainty manufactured blossoms, the American beauty roses costing all the from $2 to $4 each, and the orchids land other flowers, including great feathery chrysanthemums, are com- paratively high-priced; but the econ: omy comes in using the flowers over and over again, their lasting qualities and their naturalness having hun- dreds of dollars to one who entertains much during the season.
