    CORNER CUPBOARDS.
The Style of Forty Years Ago Is the Most
Popular Just Now.
Corner cupboards are such extrava
gantly popular pieces of furniture just !
now that bric-a-brac dealers not only
buy them readily, but send out and j
canvass the country in hopes of securing
good specimens.
The style of forty years ago is excel !
lent, with small panes of glass fitting j
the shelf space, solid brass knob for the
upper door, and brass keyholes in the
lower section . Hut they do not always
appear to advantage, because frequent
ly the owner has tried to do the cup
board over herself, and daubed its sur
face over with villainous red paint.
The quality of the wood can be deter
mined by scraping off a little paint. II
it shows a reddish pink it is cherry; if
light color it is imitation. The idea is
now to preserve the original design as
nearly as possible, and to this end little
renovation is made other than polish
ing. The windows are left intact, an
extra band of molding added on the
top and supports placed underneath tc
raise it about four inches from the floor
Claw feet, with a carved apron, sur
mounted by a narrow molding, are a
wonderful improvement without in the
least detracting from the coveted air of
antiquity.
Doing over an old cupboard is very
inexpensive. The article itself costs at
the least from $8 to sl2. To polish it
alone amounts to $7 more, and, adding
(•law feet and moldings, brings it up tc
a total of S2B. These prices, of course,
depend to some extent on the locality,
A QUAINT BIT OF FURNITURE.
labor being cheaper In some places than
others. In lieu of the claw feet balls
can be used, and, indeed, many persons
prefer not to have them raised at all.
Modernised cupboards are also in de
mand, one of the handsomest being il
lustrated here. The upper door was
removed and a shelf cut out, leaving an
open space between the lower and
upper sections, and two doors with
large plate-glass panels inclosing the
remaining shelves. The lower doors
were left intact, and brass hinges of
elaborate pattern serve as ornaments.
The open space is lined with plate
mirrors, which reflect its silver and
glass contents. The interior is painted
a rich cream tint, against which deli
cate china shows to advantage.
One carver has sent out ten new cup
boards in the last two years, princi
pally to inland cities. They have all
been different in detail and splendidly
handsome specimens. Hut the old cup
boards can be made equally beautiful
at less expense, and for some reason
their very ngo makes them more de
sirable than the strictly modern affairs.
—Kennet Wood, in Chicago Record.
Dainty Table Appointments.
Ilowever simple the bill of fare, the
table appointment should always be
clean and inviting. With a little care
directed toward removing a spot when
it appears, a tablecloth may be used to
serve for several occasions, and remain
spotlessly clean; while a rumpled nap
kin or a coffee sta'.i upon the table
cloth is accountable for many an un
eaten breakfast and many a sick head
ache. The center of the table should
always be occupied with some refresh
ing plant or flower. It may bo fern
or a slender rose in its swaying vase,
but whatever it is it will act as an ap
petizer and tonic. A crisp bowl of let
tuce or a dish of fresh radishes helps
out the effect of the floral decoration.
Salad Dressing Without OH.
A coffee cup of cream, either sweetot
sour; put on the stove in a hot watoi
pan; then beat one egg with a tea
spoonful of corn starch, adding to it,
beating till it thickens. While it is
boiling a little put in a cup a teaspoon
ful of mustard, one of sugar, a small
one of salt, adding vinegar enough to
dissolve them, and put into the mix
ture. This is a useful recipe, as it util
izes the leftovers of cream, which will
collect in hot weather. Milk, of course,
may be used; then a piece of butter
must be added to enrich it.
I*ove and Friendship.
Friendship, like lovn Is. oft Is told us,
As holy, earnest, pure aiul truo.
Who say so. know not; friendship merely bor-
Lovc flveth all. and yet Is ever new.

Supposing the ocean bed was emptied
it would take forty-four thousand
years for all the tidal rivers of the

SUMMER FANCY WORK.
A Novelty Which Produces a Good Fffect
with Little Labor.
A novelty in fancy work, which is
quickly done and is not expensive, and
produces a very good effect with very
little labor.
This work can be used for pincush
ions, mats, handkerchief sachets, and
even slippers, a little taste only being
required in the blending of colors, and
care being taken to choose a suitable
material as a foundation for the rib
bon. After cutting a lining of silk, or
any other material, the shape you de
sire, the next thing is to tack altcrnat<
rows of different colored satin ribbon;
as close together as possible, beginning
at the top of the lining, and cutting
the ribbon off into length as you finish
each row. Then commence to darn the
two-colored ribbons in and out, over
the dark and under the light one way,
and reversing the order in the next
row, so that squares are formed. A
pretty handkerchief sachet could be
made of blue satin ribbon and silver
braid of the same width. Slippers
would look well in black satin ribbon
and gold braid. A pretty pincushion
could he made of rather wide satin rib
bon all one color, with trimmings of
lace and hows at the corners. A large
bag would be effective with tartan and
black ribbon for the bottom part, and
plush to match one of the colors in the
plaid at the top, finishing off with cord
and tassels or wide satin strings.
The sachet in the sketch is made of
blue satin ribbon and silver braid.
Four corners form the front, and the
back could he plain, or to match the
front, according to taste. Each corner
should be hound with ribbon, and n
hook and loop should he placed under
the how. A frill of lace gm-s all round
and hows trim the corners.—St. Louis

ABOUT YOUR CALLS.
Vlnltlng Card Etiquette an Explained ly
Ruth Aiihranre.
I know it to be true that when you
came to town you had for a visiting
card a faintly-tinted stiff one on which
was written your name, "Elinor Smith,"
in a fine Italian hand heavily shaded,
writes Ruth Ashmore in Ladies'
Iloinc Journal. Fortunately for you,
your hostess saw this and kept you
from making a faux pas. In the place
of these rose-tinted ones, happily con
signed to their proper resting place, the
wastehasket, you now have rather thin
white cards, almost square, with, as yon
the oldest daughter, and as your mid
dle name is your mother's maiden one,
"Miss Cholmondeley Smith," engraved
upon them. Your visiting card repre
sents you, and consequently it must he
in good taste. This form is desirable
because, seeing it, old friends who knew
your mother as "pretty Elinor Chol
mondeley" will recognize you as her
daughter and make an effort to show
you some special courtesies.
When you make, your visits you leave
your card with the lady of the house
and for eaeli daughter who is in society.
When you cannot go to a reception
or a tea your cards represent you.
When you do go you lenve your card
either with a servant who holds out a
silver salver for it or you" put it on the
table prepared for cards. This is done
because, seeing many people, your
friend may not remember all who were
there, and the little bits of thin paste
hoard tell of her visitors and warn her
of those to whom she owes either a
personal visit or a return card. You
called one day on a friend who lives
very quietly, and who opened the door
for you. For her a card must be left
also, and as j'ou are a bright girl you
can either do it before her, reminding
her that you do not* intend to let her
forget you came to see her, or you can
leave it in the hall when you are
ulone, for your hostess does not accom
pany you further than the drawing
room door.

ICOPTRbSMT. HJVS.I
f£IE summer girl
of '9 5 will be
"faddy." That is
has been coined
by her to express
a penchant for
somewhat start
ling innovations
of manner, walk j
season she will outdistance all other i
summers by the number of her fads j
and their bizarre originality.
I have never been able to discover
whether this capricious goddess of the
"silly season" evolved her own fads
from her inner consciousness or had
them invented to order. Where they
originate is almost as great a mystery j
as where she herself goes when the j
turning autumn leaves betoken the !
ending of summer.
A unique and decidedly novel orna
ment which is to be found in the jewel
box of my lady's dressing table is the
huge heart locket, which she hangs
about her neck on a long silver chain
that reaches far below her waist. It is
nearly as big as a silver dollar and a
rather awkward ornament, as it swings
about with every motion of the wearer,
and its safety is imperiled greatly in
traveling about, getting into the car
riages or horse cars, walking through a
crowded shop or on the promenade of a
swagger watering place.
Of course, this heart lias been chris- !
tened "Trilby." Why, who can'tell?
Trilby has never been represented as !
wearing her heart on her sleeve. She !
would probably have tangled herself
inextricably in the Quartier Latin
frivolities had she attempted to sport
such an ornament, but "Trilby hearts'
these fanciful, dangling receptacles arc
called.
They are of gold or silver, and many
are incrusted with diamonds and othei
gems. Some are extremely flat, and
others are repousse and rounded, like
THE "SWEATER."
tlio organ that is supposed to heat in
the breast of the girl who dares to
wear russet shoes, with a silk frock
and a sailor hat, on horseback.
These heart lockets are, of course,
intended to contain the photograph of
the especial man who Is buying bon
bons and roses for the young woman j
wearer of the trinket. There arc
frames for two pictures in some, and o
girl told me last week that the sec- i
on<l one was for the "best man's un
derstudy." There is some method in
this madness, for there is always the
other man in the background some
where ready to step upon the scene
when his predecessor has been re
jected. At least, that's the popular
fable that poets and artists have been
tuning and picturing about girls in
summertime, ever since that first
memorable summer in Eden.
"Sweater is the name of the big.
cluinsy-looking knitted garment that
men wear in athletic field sports, row
ing and bicycle riding. It is not u
pretty article of clothing, and it cer
tainly is not attractively named, but
there are "sweaters" feminine this sea
son, and very fetching they look when
worn by the right sort of girls.
The young woman with two redun
dant "curves" and an over-supply of
pulchritudinous charm, may not affect
the "sweater" to advantage. Its ma
terial is like that of the "jersey" waist
of several seasons ngo, and it accentu
ates every line of the figure. Lithe,
willowy, Hrown-Pottery girls, with
slim waists, broad shoulders and "style,"
can don their sweater for the morning
sail or for a bicycle spin before break
fast. On the deck of a yacht they look
especially appropriate and offer an
TIIE HEART CHARM,
unlimited opportunity for the posing
that the dog-clay girl is so fond of.
I looked over a stock of these odd
tilings at a "haberdasher's" the other
day, for they are aold at the men's fur
nishers like the stiff-collared shirt
waists of this year, and I found that
they come in all colors—white, black,
shell pink, Yale blue and azure shades
as soft as summer skies. Then there
are stripes and polka dots and mix
tures, but the solid delicate colors are
much the prettiest, though possibly
very perishable beneath the Influence
of sun and salt-laden breezes.
Hush! Whisper! The up-to-date
maiden carries £er keys on a chain
fastened to a button somewhere on the
inside of her belt just under her right
arm. The keys must necessarily bo
plain, ordinary things, without any
poetry about them, but the chains are
of precious metals and the new alum
inum, which looks like gold and does
not tarnish. On this the modern young
person of the feminine persuasion car
ries her hotel room key and also those
that open her trunks, writing desk,
jewel casket and sometimes her check
book.
For this is another fad. The wom
an who boasts a check book of her
very own, on the pages of which she
can make mistakes and get herself
involved in a hopeless mathematical
maze, will lock the precious volume
with a ridiculous little gold key, which
will hold the Russia leather covers
together with a band of the same me
tal. It wouldn't take anyone more
SHE DINES WITH ARMS AKIMBO.
than a moment to demolish the entire
structure, but it's a fad—and there you
are!
Have you noticed that the end
of-the-century girl lives, moves and Ims
her being with her arms akimbo? II
you haven't, it will be impressed
upon you this summer. Whether she
sleeps in that attitude is a question
none can answer but that especial
cherub who watches over the slumber
of summer girls.
She keeps at least one arm akimbo
at all times during her waking hours.
She dines with her left hand planted
firmly ugainst her belt, and she enters
the surf in the same manner. It has
become quite as popular as the dude's
habitual hand in his trousers pocket.
When she sits on the piazza with
the summer man, and listens to the
soft nothings he whispers in her ear,
her eyes may look pensively off to the
sea or to some sun-kissed mountain
peak in the distance, but her arm will
retain its angular attitude, and if it
is a pretty arm it will impress its
beauty upon him more forcibly than
ever.
Perhaps tho wickedest fad of this
season is the little silver brandy flask
which has a place in the end-of-the cen
tury girl's outfit. It holds about two
gills, and costs somewhere in the neigh
borhood of twenty dollars. Sometimes
there is a monogrum in gems upon the
stopper, and some have merry little
sentiments inscribed upon them. Very
swagger girls have them in gold, and
these cost as much apiece as a Worth
dress, if there are any diamonds on
them. Old-fashioned people maj ele
vate their eyebrows when the girl In
the next chair in the drawing-room
car takes one of these froin her trav
eling bag and tips it to her cherry lips,
but that is the correct caper this year.
This season's girl buys her collars
and cuffs by the dozen. They are
made to button to her shirt waists and
wristbands in exactly the same fash
ion as her brother's, and she knows
just how It feels to have her collar
button slip down her spine and her
collar flap up against the back of her
ears. But it's "faddy," so it's all right.
These are just a few of the fetching
little belongings and ways with which
05's summer girl will captivate crea
tion. She has a lot more that she will
spring upon unsuspecting masculine
humanity later on in the season; but
these mentioned are already In work
ing order. KATE MASTRRSON.
JAPS LIKE OUR FLAG.
They Intertwine It with Their Own In
Celebrating Their Victory.
A letter of the New York Ilerald's
correspondent from Tokio strikingl}'
Illustrates the friendly attitude of
Japan to the United States. Of the
enthusiastic reception given at Tokio
to the emperor of Japan on his return
from the seat of war the Ilerald's cor
respondent says:
"I rode for miles through tho bed
rocked streets. Occasionally I ob
served the stars and stripes massed in
with Japan flags of all varieties, dis
played by the Japanese themselves.
No other foreign flag was displayed in
conjunction with t&ein. This was some
what significant."
This incident was certainly very
"significant." It shows, for one thing,
the friendly attitude of Japan to us
commercially, and it suggests, what
the Herald has before pointed out,
that Japan is opening her arms invit
ing our intercourse and trade. It is
doubtful if American merchants and
manufacturers are awake to the new
and magnificent opportunity now
opened for extending our export trade
to Japanese markets. If we let this
opportunity slip we shall have cause to
rue it.
Hitherto we have depended for our
export trade mainly upon farm prod
ucts, but the crop outlook this year
does not promise a great surplus pro
duction. A large and immediate ex
tension of our export of manufactured
goods is therefore now a prime neces
sity.

STARVING ON BEEF TEA.
Likely to Disturb Muny olil-rime ('bel
ittled Drlunlout*.
It is generally believed that beef tea
and animal broths of all kinds are
nourishing. The most recent medical
authorities assure us that this is a mis
take. In order to combat what it calls
"The Beef-Tea Delusion," Modern Med
icine publishes an article consisting
largely of quotations from a high mod
ern authority. We reproduce several
paragraphs below:
"The late I)r. Austin Flint remarked
on one occasion that thousands of pa
tients have been starved to death while
being fed on animal broths, beef tea,
etc. No error could bo greater than
the notion veiy commonly held by the
laity, and still quite too largely enter
tained by the members of the medical
profession, that beef extracts, beef tea,
bouillon, animal broths, etc., are pecul
iarly nourishing in character. We can
adduce no better evidence to the con
trary than is afforded by the following
paragraphs from 'Bunge's Physiological
and Pathological Chemistry,' one of the
latest and most reliable authorities:
"'We must guard against supposing
that meat bouillon possesses a strength
ening and nourishing influence. In re
gard to this, the most delusive notions
are entertained not only by the general
public, but also by medical men.
"'Until quito recently the opinion
was held that bouillon contained the
most nutritive part of meat. There
was a confused idea that a minute quan
tity of material—a plateful of bouillon
can be made from a teaspoonful of meat
extract—could yield an effectual source
of nourishment, that the extractives of
meat were synonymous with concen
trated food.
" 'Let us inquire what substances
could render bouillon nutritious. The
only article of food which meat yields
to boiling water is gelatine. It is well
known that albumen is coagulated in
boiling, the glycogen of meat is rapidly
converted into sugar, and this agaiii
into lactic acid. The quantity of gela
tine is, moreover, very small; for a
watery solution which contains only
one per cent, of gelatine coagulates 011
cooling. Such coagulation may occur
in very strong soups and gravies, but
never in bouillon. Bouillon, therefore,
contains much less than one per cent,
of gelatine. In preparing extract of
meat, the quantity of gelatine is re
duced as much as possiblo, because it is
In a high degree liable to putrefactive
changes, and therefore likely to inter
fere with the preservation of the prep
aration. The other constituents of
bouillon are decomposition prod
ucts of foodstuffs—products of the
oxidations and decompositions which
take place in the animal organism.
They cannot be regarded as nutri
tious, because they are no longer capa
ble of yielding any kinetic energy, or
at most such small amount that ft is of
no importance whatever.
" 'Nevertheless, until the most re
cent times, creatin and creatinin,which
are among the chief constituents of
meat extract, were regarded as the
source of energy in muscle. This asser
tion was shown to be untrue by the re
searches of Meissner and of Noit, who
proved conclusively that ereatin and
creatinin are excreted in the urine
twenty-four hours after their absorp
tion, without loss. A material which is
neither oxidized nor decomposed can
not form a source of energy, apart from
the fact that the quantity of creatin
and creatinin which is absorbed in
bouillon is so small that it could not
possibly be seriously regarded as the
source of muscular energy,' "
Carrying Molten Metal Five ,Miles.
Great pots of molten metal go daily
skimming along the Erie railroad from
the Cleveland Rolling Mills company's
central blast furnace to the Newburg
mills as sedately as if this trafllc was of
long standing, says a Cleveland letter.
The plan is a perfect success. It tukes
just fifteen minutes for the metal, after
it is poured into the big ladle cars, to
reach the mixer in the mills, some five
miles away. Eight trips are made a
day, as follows: At (1:20, 8:20 and 11:30
in the morning, at 3:10 and 4:10 o'clock
in the afternoon, and three trains at
,night. These trips are made at a time
when the tracks are practically cleared.
Thus delays are avoided, which would
bo expensive, for if long continued the
metal would cool and the purpose of the
special delivery thus be defeated. At
the rolling mills the car is raised on n
hoist to the mixer, the ladle is tipped
by machinery, and the liquid metal
poured into the mixer. Relieved of
their load, the cars amble back to tho
furnace at their leisure, in time for tho
next trip. About 500 tons of the hot
metal is thus carried every day over
this long railroad route. The Cleveland
Rolling Mills company has to pay a
pretty figure for the freightage.it is said,
but there is economy in the operation.
A Queer Kitvingn Hunk.
Five million francs in a warming-pan
was the lucky find of the prefect of the
Seine the other day. An old lady of
eighty-three named Tanies had died in
her country house, leaving the city of
Paris heir to all her property, which
she said amounted to five million francs.
After her death the country house and
her flat in the Rue dc la Boetie were
searched without anything being !
found; she was not known to have any
banker, and tho authorities were com- |
ing to the conclusion that they were
the victims of a mystification, when
some one opened an old warming-pan
without a handle, stowed nway under
a sink, and found the sum there in
gold, bank notes and bonds.
Given Pecuniary Satisfaction.
Two brothers named Ilabron were
convicted at Manchester, England,
some time ago, of murdering a police
man, and condemned to death. Doubts '
of their guilt having arisen they were
reprieved. Before the expiration of
their reprieve another man was arrest
ed for the crime and confessed that he j
committed it. As a result, the Ilabrons
have been not "pardoned," as is the
American procedure in similar cases,
but "released," and, in compensation i
for the law's blunder, have received 1
ten thousand dollars from the treasury.
