Decoration.
Roger Riordan writes in the Century
on ornamental Forms in Nature:'
THE type Of the growing plant has fur
nished us, from the most ancient times,
with another extremely popular orna-
ment, the rOsette. IL Is the plan OF
plant, as the anthcmion is the elevation,
With the ancients, though Mt first
symbol of plant life, and though it al
ways preserved somewhat Of its origi-
nal Specification, il was used in the best
periods OF art simply as Il beautiful ra-
diant figure, exactly as il it were a geo
metrical form, but with clear percep-
ton that ii was much hands0mer than
any geometrical figure, Simple as
were the ideas Of the growth of plants
conveyed by antique ornaments, the
important ideas connected with them in
the designers mind were simpler yet,
The upright growing plant-iorm
was useful to suggest or carry out
perpendicular line; the rosette was good
to fill out circle; the vine was a rich
and beautiful waved line or scroll.
With conceptions SO general as these,
II was no trouble to an inventive people
TO vary their patterns 10 any extent,
and, in fact, good Greek and Roman
art is varied enough in its ornamental
portions as well as in its figures, and
that without showing much direct ref
erence to nature. The hint once rot
from nature Of some graceful arrange
ment OF leaves or petals, or some notch
ing OF their edges, or modelling of their
surface, was carried out with an eye
single to the production of something
elegant, rich, refined and fitting to till
a space which, without it, would be a
painful blank. There is, judged by
modern standards, little nature in the
anthemiOns and rosettes from the build
ings on the Athenan acropolis, and rs
little in the vine scrolls on Greek vases,
which might be intended for ivy, or for
grape-vines, or for any other plant OF
vine-like habit But the little that there
is is put to the very best use The
Greek designer took only what he need
ed the modern, when he works after
nature, grabs at everything and can get
no good of anything,
If we would or could work in the
proper way, there is no reason why the
splendid Greek system of ornament,
which, through all its variations, is one
of the heir-ooms Of our race, might not
be kept always fresh and living. If we
would change only on occasion, and
with strict reference to the occasion, we
would always find in nature what we
wanted Of more plant or more sturdy,
of broader or longer, or sparser or more
close. But our designer goes to nature
or to the past, not as u man might 20 to a
store-houSe that belongs to him, to select
what he wants, but, like thief, to take
whatever he can lay hands upon

Sparrows as Food.

The English sparrow, where he has
become habituatcd, is usually regarded
as n nuisance to be abated or pest to
be extirpated. Indeed, one State, Mas
sachusetts, has enacted astatute agans,
these small birds, to encourage their
thinning out, If not their extcrmina'
ton. Whatever may be the value OF
tho snarrow alive, there is but one
opinion about him when deaf lhe
sparrow-or pen y OF him-maEeS de'
licious pies. In Germany ana IN Eng
lard the sparrow is a game Bird aud is
sought after as food, lie is so tame
that his capture requires very little skill
and after grain gathering in August hi
swarms on the stubblc so that one
charge of fine shot would bring down
number Of birds.

The Mansion House.-For some

The Mansion HOuse.-For some
monthspast movements in and upon the
"Mansion House," the homestead of
the Frost family, have indicated the
progress of radical changes and i'm
provements. From the outside the
most marked alteration is presented
in the addition of a story, making the
edifice three stories. Covered by a
Mansard roof the crowning story
gives the Mansion an imposing and
picturesque appearance. The beauty
of the place and its ample surroundings
Of shade will be more conspicuously
observed in summer.
The Mansion, originally erected for
and long used as a dwelling, contains
in tho first and second stories, com
modious rooms for parlor, chamber
and dining purposes. The addition of
six comfortable rooms in the third
story, provides now about twelve
chambers for the accommodation of
guests, all neatly and fully equip
ped. Besides these are apartments of
ample size for servants quarters and
culinary purposes. AS natural and
necessary supplement to the interior
remodelings a number of outside inn
provements will be constructed.
On the east side of the Mansard
story u balcony has been erected, from
which magnificent landscape and
mountain view may be had. From
north to south the horizon may be
swept, the eye taking in the full length
of Dams mountain and much of the
great Georges Creek valley. This
thoughtful provision will undoubtedly
be appreciated and enjoyed by guests
of the house.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. N. S. Frost,
the protector of these improvements,
to conduct the house as a summer re-
sort, in answer to an annually increas-
ing demand for accommodations here.
Already engagements for noxt sum-
mer have been made, and no doubt is
felt that all the space set apart for
guests viii be taken for the season.
The house with its ample and comfort
able equipment, and the immediate
surroundings, are attractions that will
draw, while the salubrity of our high
location, the purity of our water and
the picturesqueness of our scenery,
are so well known and admitted that
any references thereto appear as "a
tale that has been told"
OF Mr.. Frost's entire success we
have no doubt. More than that, we
believe his enterprise will lead to
further developments in the direction
he is pursuing.

improvements entrances lead
ing to the vestibulc and auditorium of
st. Michacl's Church have been
changed to open outwardly, and the

Besides the better character of the

afforded occasion for other improve

congregation. Messrs. Duggan &
