Closets i'll the House.

HAVING suffered some for closet room
at one time and another, or for places to
stow away things, have had considera-
BILE sympathy with that man who said
that when he built house he should be-
gin with big closet and make additions
to that. When | speak of closets my hus-
band understands me, but Immediately
begins to talk about modes of ventilating
closets, and | have only gradually grown
to understand his strong sense Of the
necessity for closet ventilation. Having
for several years hung the clothing of the
family in rooms where there was a free
circulation of air, am surprised when |
go into the well-iLished cIothes-rooms
Get us call them close rOOmS) in some fine
houses to find how dead and unwhole-
SOme-nOt to say fOul-the air is. The
soiled garments, hung in a tight and dark
room, cOntaminate the whole apartment
and such contamination is very percepti-
BILE to a well-trained nose or to OlfactOries
accustomed to the refinement of habitual
pure air. Old boots and shoes cause a
bad smell in a close room.
To pursue an unpleasant subject a little
farther-why 10iU people keep the dirty
clothes designed for the weekly wash in
a close closet? That which las come
from the skins of unclean or unhealthy
persons (the latter adjective describes
ninetenths of the human family grows
constantly more impure shut away from
light and air, and everything kept in the
same room is contaminated by the etf1u-
via. Cannot sOiled garments be kept,
while waiting for the wash, in some bag
or covered basket in the wOOd-shed or
some such place? There are baskets on
purpose for sOiled clothing, open enough
for ventilation but too fine TO admit mice.
Unless a closet is ventilated so that
there Is some circulation of air through 1t,
it is no place to hang away night-gowns,
unless they have previously been aired, so
that the PRESENTATION accumulated IN the
previous nIght-Only irsensible persplra-
ton, perhaps-has been dried and summed
away.
have no means of ascertaining this
morning how far science has attended to
this subject of closet ventilation, but l am
very sure that it is an important matter,
and should be well looked into. OfcOurse
there can be closets with windows in
them, and this should generally be the
case. They can be kept dark, as a gen
eral rule, if desired, but it ought to be
possible to admita flood of light.
Closets built under stairways might be
ventilated by a CRATE closed by a sliding
shutter under one of the stairs. 1t would
be well to have the CRATE capable OF being
shut to keep out dust when the stairs are
swept. | do not know whether this has
been tried, but the idea has occurred tC
me as practicable. A sliding window IN
the closet door is also possible. The
small sliding window in the door anC

A Composition on Chickens.
By A LOUISVILLE BOY.

MOST usually it takes two eggs for to
make chicken, because, if you will put
eighteen eggs under hen, only about
nine Of EN- will hatch. a hen is so care
less and stubborn that most likely she
won't cover her eggs all over, and so they
get chilled; then they are everlastingly
gone up. Also, the rats will rob a nest
so that, if you get half of brood, it is a
tol'able crop, and you should be thankful
Then, think, il stands to reason this
ought to prove what I said at first. a
hen, which has got a young family, is
more crosser than anything else which can
be compared with her under the sun in
the United States. There never was a
thing which can ruffle its feathers up
backward and rage worse than fool hen.
a turkey gobbler will do it, but he don't
20 off into red-hot passion about it, and
make a fool of himself, and get enemies
all tor nothing, like a hen would. A
chicken in the spring time which was put
to hatch in March, if it has good luck and
don'tdie ofthe pip, or gaps, or the cholery-
mOrbus, or get drownded or something,
will be big enough to sell to the restaurant
about in June They will fetch Sc a
dozen, and a chicken is more popular
where it is a spring chicken that if it

would live long enough to get as tough as
Methuseley. They say that a spring
chicken is a luxurious thing for to broil
and mix up with toast. That's what l
have heard. Once in a great while we
have spring chickens for dinner. Then
we have the preacher, or else some CON-
pany, and I eat at the secondhand table,
and can always tell by the savory smell
a going on in the kitchen that broiled
chicken ought to be good enough for any
body. But if I can't get something to
eat more substantialler than a smell |
always fall back on roast beef. A chicken
don't gather shrewdness like a owl, and
it never picks up any wisdom. 1t is not
a talented thing like a fox. If you can
show me more stupider thing than
hen I wish you would uOt her out. The
rooster has got what little sense there ever
was in the family. 1t is one of the worst
difficulties with chicken that she don't
know its place. She won't stay in the
barn-yard, where she belongs. any way
YOU can fix it. If your mother has got
f1ower-beds in the front yard-and it's a
mighty curious mother which amt
every last chicken on the place will get
in to scratch them, if it takes till next
Christmas; and then goOd-by to the hya-
cinthes, and crocuses, and jerryranthems,
and all that kind Of foolishness. Then is
the inc you want to have two jackets on,
or else to forget to come home early, if 1t
was you which left the lattice gate open.
Anyhow, that's my advice. Also, hen
is hard-hearted and cruel, and will kill
every little desolated stray chicken who
tries to associate with her own brood, and
this is good enough reason why she Is
like step-mother. If a hen once gets a
fair hold of little chicken to shake it by
the nape of the neck it will never kick
again in this community more than
twice. The frequentest bad habit which
hen has got is going off to the neigh
bors to lay; also it is too soft thing for
the neighbors; but it is generally chronic
for hen to do it, and the only way for to
cure her is to cut her head off and boil
her down into soup. She won't go to the
neighbors to lay many times after that, [

Cannon Made Of Ice.

A HOLLOW cylinder will bear a greater
strain than solid one. Many of US know
by experiment what hard pressure an
egg will resist when placed endwise be-
tween the hands. This curious strength
in round but weak substance is due to
the exact, orderly arrangement Of the par
ticles, 4. e., in perfect curves. a memora-
bic illustration was seen in the mock ar
tillery set to play guard in front OF that
creation of imperial whim, the ice palace
OF Catharine of Russia. Before the pal-
ace stood six cannons of ice, and two NOR
tars formed of cast pieces. The cannons
were six-pounders, which are commonly
loaded with three pounds OF powder;
these, however, with a quarter OF pound,
and carried ball of stuffed hemp, ana
sometimes of iron. The balls at as
lance of sixty spaces passed through a
board two inches in thickness. Inc Ice
Of the cannon could not have been more
than three or four inches in thickness,
and yet it resisted the force of the expIo-
