A Pretty Room

A young working girl of this city. by
the exercise Of her own innate good
taste and putting every spare penny
where il would do the most good. has
furnished forth = charming room at
comparatively small expense and sull-.
cieutly aesthetic to please the most fas-
tidious person. The floor. painted BY
her own hands, is n dark walnut shade,
partly covered by large rug made of
cheap ingram carpet in small pattern
of cream and olive, bordered up broad
band Of plain olive felt The inexpen-
sive wall paper is plain olive, fecked
with pink, finished by q narrow olive
frieze, terminating at the corners with q
cluster Of four tiny pink fans. One
window faces dingy brick wall, and
she painted the window panes in bright
water colors, following q pretty traced
pattern, which gives bit of stained
glass quite effective in the pretty room.
The other window is draped gracefully
with long full folds of sprigged muslin,
depending from rings on aplsin pine
roll, to be replaced in the winter with
heavier curtain of olive cotton flannel.
The furniture is light wood and q
lamp with rosy transparency stands
on a o'clock tea table of unvarnished
wood and throws soft light over the
room, which also contains books, shelves
of pine, couple Of secondhand easy
chairs and q small dry goods box for
shoes, covered by her own hands with
pink and olive cretonne. A large
clothes-horse. on which she pasted the
story of Cinderella in Walter Cranes
pictures over olive paper. shuts off the
washstand and bedstead from view.-
The toilet accessories, set off with sprig-
ged muslin over a pink lining, are
pink and white washbowl and large
pitcher of the quaint shape that comes
now in the cheaper grades of china;
secondhand wardrobe, draped with a
portiere of olive Canton flannel, con-
tains the un9sthetic dust-pan, brooms,
and other homely articles necessary to
neatness and comfort, all trifes of that
description bought at the 5-cent coun-
tiers.
A pretty willow rocking-chair, orna-
mented with olive and pink ribbon, and
huiltet IiitSsOSh W iIiiICu, Lllc IWO ldL-
ter Christmas gifts, stand on the rug
On the olive-draped mantle are grand
mas Nankin teapot, two tall silver can
dle-sticks, and n large ginger jar, not
decorated and spoiled with gummed-on
pictures, but left in its spristine blue and
white beauty, filled with white daisies
gathered on Sunday afternoon walks
Two or three photographs of good sub
jects, that are better than chromos and
cost less, hang on the wall and COM
plete the pretty refuge of this proud and
industrious girl. who is self-respecting
enough to earn her own living rather
than to be dependent upon her rich re-
latious.-HarJord Times.

A Remarkable Escape.

Mrs. Geo. G. Clarke, of Port Dalhousie,
Ontario, states that she had been con
fined to her room for long time with
that dreadful disease, Consumption. The
Doctors said she could not escape an
early grave, but fortunately she began
taking DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption, and in short time was
completely cured. Doubling ones, please
write Mrs. Clarke, and be convinced.

Who's the Best PLY siciaB.

The one that does most to relieve suf-
fering humanity of the thousand and one
ills that befall them, is certainly the best
of all physicians. Electric Bitters are
daily doing this, curing where all other
remedies failed. As spring tonic and
blood purifier they have no equal. They
positively cure liver and kidney COM
plants. In the strongest sense OF the
term, they are the best and cheapest
physician known.-Daily Times. Sold by

GETTTNG READY FOR 1854.

Tho Democrats of California In convention
assembled have emitted platform which We
commend to TIE whole party for National use.
Il reads as if it had been written by Denis
Kearncy. The larger part of it is devoted to
the Chinese, anil upon that once-prOmislng Issue
the utterances are stirring enough to make
the widest Chinese-hate in the country dance
with ioy. The architects of the platform were
evidently Southern men. California was the
refuge which many SOutherners sought at the
close of the war, where they all joined the
Democratic party and were ut once gwen high
places in its councils. They betray their ante
cedents in this platform by denouncing the
men who, under humanitarian cloak, are
endeavorng to thwart the efforts in behalf OF
- the lrbitc men in California" This is the first
intimation We have had that the Chinaman
was cndangering the Divine right of the white
man to rule this country.
Starting on this ancient Democratic princl-
pie, the platform warns at once to its work. IL
denounces the Chinese now in California as an
"unmasked CURSE" appeals to the Democracy
of the country for dciverance, and demands
that the next Democratic National Convention
shall declare for the doctrine of self-prescrya-
ton, and shall pledge the party in case it OBJ
tains power TO remove every Monaghan from
the country. We trust that the word re
move is not used in the Guiteau sense, yet we
are not sure about it. The convention which
adopted the declaration was in red-hot con-
diton at the time.
The National Democracy will probably ac-
cent the suggestion and put n Chinese extermI-
nation plank into it's platform. 1t would fit IN
admirably with the present collection OF prln-
ciplcs, which stands: Stuffed Ballot-boXes !;
Polygamy; Free RUM Free Trade; Abolition
of the National Banks Chinese EXlcrmlna-
ton. That is rounded and homogeneous.
There is not single masked curse in the whole
list. There il, however, really nothing new IN
the platform. The party has been running as
an "uumaskcd curse" for the past twenty-five
yeaIs, and has been treated as such by the
people.

would still suffice TO give everybody enough 10

Business is stagnant," we hear. But stag
nation does not mean in this country what IL
means elsewhere The fact is that the business
of the half year now nearly ended has beeh'
on the whole. the largest ever known except
ne in one year, and outside of New-York the
largest ever known. There Is only
one week left, and the payments
actually made through clearing houses out

been about $6G2O, 100000, against abont
So. 400 900, 900 for the same time last year.
when the payments were by far the largest
ever known. The recent dulness is NANNY
due to hesitation people are waiting Tor news
from the wheat fields, and already begin 70
buy more freely because the tidnSs are more
favorable But if a half year after Dau crop
gives us nearly or quite the largest Voiuihe
of business ever known, ii is a little premature
to suppose that the country is gong TO the uoES
if the next crop should also prove unsatlsidc-
tory.
The truth is that the industries OF the COM
tIv are lust now feeling the worst effects OF
the revcrses Of last year, and 1t Is a very
wholesome thing to look about us, and TO see
how little bad those worst effects really are.
We all hope for better state OF things, ana
with much reason. But our worst appears
more than tolerahlc, contrasted with the best
of other lands. The vitality, enterprise, thIlit
and rapid growth of this country hit us
trade and industry high above serious diS-
aster, Just as a rising spring tide lifts great
Shin that has touched on the harbor bar. There
NAV be a little more waiting. Bat the ude
will bear US over and onward at last
