Tuesday mornings sudden cold snap
bridged the mud sloughs around our
square with thick coating OF frozen
water and dirt. but it was not thick
enough to prevent horses breaking
through and the result was that almost
a complete blockade was put on all
kinds of out door business. Good
paved or macadamized streets would
have prevented this, besides contribut-

not afford to perform his task without careful
study Of Mr.. Spedding's volumes in which there is
matter that will change the aspect of Jamess char
acter and reign to coming generations.
As to Bacon, he is not wholly free fron evil report
but one reason of the faith that should be given to
Mr. SPEEDING view of his character is that his dc
fender does not set him up immaculate. Ills re-
lations with Essex will always seem tainted with at
least semblance of ingratitude by those who feel
rather than think and TO the irregularty OF the
practices which in his later years ruined him and
sent him to the Tower there is no doubt: they were
confessed But Mr.. Speeding has made it very clear
that Bacon was in the main an upright man, coura-
geous one, not a self-seeker wise statesman as
well as an able one friend and defender of popular
right against prerogative-that he was one OF the
greatest and wiscst and not one of the meanest
of mankind.

Newspaper Advertising.

The Madison Square Theatre com.
pany has several organizations on the
road. 1t has been experimenting tc
test the value of newspaper advertis.
ing as compared to that of posters. 1t
uses whole page of a newspaper
quite frequently in the cities its com.
panies visit, and, after this season will
abandon the bill board entirely, being
convinced that money put in newspa-
per columns is used to the best ad-
vantage. A reporter got the following
information on this point from Mr..
McGeachy, manager of the professor"
company:
"The newspaper takes our an
nouncements into parlors, boudolrs,
mercantile Offices and the great hotels
and wealthy homes of the land. Where
is the sense of dodgers and handbills,
which are usually distributed by dis
honest boys, who throw them into ash
barrels and stuff them under sidewalks
Our large advertisements in the news
papers are neat and handsomely bound
handbllls scattered by the magic of the
mails, and distributed through the
energy of the newsdealers. Such
distribution could only be secured at
the expense of thousands of dollars; in
fact, no amount of money could do it
perfectly and effectually."

MY WAY.
BY FAIR PLAY.
Willard, Mo

1t seems to be customary for peopl,
IN making splashers, toilet tables, ant
other bedroom accessories, to us.
white. This is usually the best plan
Tut change from the regular estab
lished order OF things, makes a very
pleasing variety. Instead of white oil
cloth, which. soon becomes dingy, use
black; and embroider it with strong.
ly contrasting color.
My splasher was made of a strip OF
black oilcloth, with the upper corners
rounded, and a border crocheted of
orange-colored germantown yarn.
Then near the edge, was a row of
stars. There are no pockets, or dirt
catchers. but it is exactly what is de.
signed for, protection to the wall be-
hind the toilet stand. When it is spat-
tered 1t is easily cleaned with a damp
cloth.
Each side of this, is hung a set of
pockets, which are fastened to a thin
strip ofboard to keep them in shape.
The board is two feet long, and eight
inches wide. There are five pockets
on each hoard, and the oilcloth to
which the pockets are fastened is made
eight inches longer than the board, and
each end is cut pointed. The whole is
edged all around with orange-color-
ed germantown yarn, to match the
splasher; the pockets also bordered in
the same manner, with 4 star in the
center of each.
My toilet stand is home made one.
oi common pine boards, the legs only
being smoothly planed, and stained with
urnlture stain. This is covered with
he black oilcloth and trimed to match
he pockets and spasher.
The idea of using black oilcloth in
tead of white, l obtained from a Mil.
ard acquaintance who delights in max.
lg pretty things.

Jesse James Captured.

Yesterday forenoon some men were
startled, while unloading a car filled
with old rags and bones, by finding
Jesse James in one corner of the car.
The men remained on watch while
some one ran to notify the railroad
officers and the police, and soon a
whole posse arrived to capture the well
known outlaw. They surrounded the
car and called loudly on him to sur
rurder at once, but not a sound was
heard in the car, and they cautiously
crept forward to ascertain his location.
The determined faces of these men
plainly showed they meant business,
and the reporter stood by breathlessly
awaiting the results of the encounter;
but a clerk IN the freight office
and an aspirant for city attorney,
more reckless than the balance
stepped into the car and yanked
the outlaw from his position in one end
of it, when it was discovered that it
was a stuffed efigy labeled "Jessie
James,"

HOME LETTER.

DEAR EDlrREss:--1 was going 10
send a little article on "Spring work
for Women two or three weeks since,
amt l glad didn't! 1t would have
been rs much out of place then as a
boot jack on a centre table (by the way
some men would as soon put theirs
there as not, and their boots too for
that matteD. But surely sometime IN
the near future spring will come, and
in the meantime We can prepare for 1t.
Although SO fatiguing, how cheerfully
we undertake the labor of tearing up
dusty carpets, scrubbing, whltewash,
ing, papering, painting, ETC., in ant'ci-
patton of the good time coming, when
everything will be sweet and clean, for
the season at least. But while waiting
tor that time to come we can do many
little things that will be of great help to
us. We can trim and train vines, set
out shrubbery, gather up the winter &C.
emulation of rubbish off the yard,
smoke and pack away the meat, make
soap, wash bed clothes, whitewash out
houses, yentilate cellars, and a dozen
other outdoor chores. When the
weather is bad, we can make picture
frames, card baskets, card cases, mats
and rugs, and many other little things
that will make everything look new
and bright when your house cleaning
is done. We can do much to add to
the pleasantness Of plain country
homes, by exercising little industry
and ingenuity at small expense.
Plain muslin table and stand covers
can be made to look neat and tidy by
chain stitching some neat design
around the edges and in the middle,
with any colors you like, and you will
hardly miss the time you are doing it.
Photograph holders and picture frames
may be made Of perforated cardboard,
worked with zephyr of any color you
choose, and will look very pretty for a
year or two. Like Aunt Sue, I do.not
know how to do many kinds of fancy
work, but would like to have those
who do, tell US how.
Best wishes to the editress and all
the contributors to the Home Circle.
