Some of the New York furnishing
companies keep a score of artists in their
employ who design the interior of rich
houses, 50 that wall hangings, curtains
and carpets belong to each other and are
made for each other. The fittings Of
the parlor of a wealthy Philadelphia
banker are all in Egyptian style The
pale tapestry carpets, the upholstery of
the antique couches, woven for the
suite, and the hangings which represent
desert scenes, are tapestry fine as mellow
painting at distance enough to lose sight
of the stitches. This compound of light
green and sand yellow tapestry, ebony
and ivory sphinx heads, coffins and
claws, cost $500, 000-money enough
common folks would think, to spend on
one suite of parlors. A California MILL
ionaire has ordered from a house a par
lor suite that cost $250,000 in gold, all de-
signed and made in New York. The
amount looks very large for these hard
times, but it is not business men or those
In active business who do these things
1t is those who have accumulated great
fortunes in stock, gold, oil, or in some
other way, and who have hauled out of
the current with more money than they
know what to do with. Cincinnati Com

LOST SHEEP.

On last Thursday the Sunday School of the Eng
Meyers Lake. A number Of those who desired to
attend had not paid sufficient attention to thepro
gress of preliminary arrangements, and, as con-
sequence labored under an aggravating misun-
derstanding when they started for the lake house,
where they arrived to find the school on the oppo-
site side of the pond. When they learned their
mistake, they started to drive around the lake
through the woods, and after they had gone about
half way, they became completely lost, driving on
at random, only to pull up in bewildering dissat-
isfaction at some point which they had passed a
short time before. The more earnestly they en-.
deavored to get out Of the woods, the more they
added to their confusion; they gAzed inquiringly
at the sun, and wondered in the name Of Kepler
or any other man, what old Sol was doing in the
North. They made about twenty-Seven distinct
starts and hslts each one adding to their misery,
Gus Herbruck dumped his load three times on
account Of stumps and confusion, and finally lefl
the party and struck out alone on reconnoiter-
ing tramp, and soon succeeded in finding young
man from town, who was hunting In the woods
and who volunteered to guide them through. II
took them quite while to find the lost sheep, and
when they came up to them the guide started of
to lead them out of the wilderness but he. too, lost
himself and misled the party. For some time
they bumped and jOlted over stumps, stones and
uneven places, and finally, some time after noon
tired sad and hungry, they came upon thesChOol
They suffered for about four hours, in misery, and
at times some of the party bordered on the ragged
edges of insanity.
