House PIa nts in Winter.

AS the culture of flowers is one Of
the most simple and harmless OF
pleasures, it seems to us, to be worthy
OF encouragement. There can be. to our
mind, no surer jurisdiction of a happy
home than flower decorated window,
be it in the mansion Of the wealthy, or
the homes of the poor. And it is quite
likely that those in humble circumstances
who have to be content with few conf
mon varieties get as much real enjoy
ment out Of their pets as those who
have rare and extensive collections
from the greenhouse.

'sDOn't."

"Don't," little manual of mistakes
and improprieties is volume lately
published by Appleton's and "A6ec-
tionateIy addressed to Womanklnd. !"
Here are few paragraphs:
| Don't overtrim your gowns or other
articles of apparel. The excess in
| trimmings on women's garments, now so
barrie, and eyinces ignorance OF the first
principles Of beauty, which always in
volve sim plicity as a cardinal virtue.
| Apparel piled with furbeIows or SINH
lar adjur cts, covered with ornaments,
and garnished up and down with rib
bons, is simply made monstrous there
bv, and is not Of a nature to please the
eyes of gods or men. Leave excuses of
all kinds to the vulgar.
! Don't use the word dress for your out
side garment. This is American En-
elish, and, common as it IS, has not the
sanction Of correct speakers or writer's.
Fortunately, the good old word gown is
again coming into vogue; indeed, its use
is now considered the sign Of high
breeding.
! Don't submit servilely to fashion. Be-
}ieve in your own instincts and the look
ing glass rather than the dicta of the,
! mantua makers, and modify modes to
suit your personal peculiaritles. How is
it possible for tall woman and a short
| woman to wear garments Of the same
style without one or the other being
! sacrificed.
| Don't cover your fingers with finger
! rings. A few we'll chosen rings give ele-
l or1 hoo,7&v to tho hand
| number dis6gure it, while the ostenta.
! ton Of such display Is peculiarly vul-
| gar. And what are we to say when many
ringed fingers show neglect of the
| wash basin?
| Don't be loud ofvoice in public places.
| A retiring, modest demeanOr may have
ceased to be fashionable, but it is as
much charm in woman to-day as it
| ever was.
! Don't bag. The amiability of woman,
in view of all they are subjected to from
unsympathetic and brutal man, deserves
great praise, but SOMETHING'S Let it
not be written!
| Don't use terms of endearment when
you do not mean them. The word dear
in the mouths of women is often moth
! ing more than a feminine way Of spelling
detestable. .-~
I Don't publicly kiss every time you
come together or part. Consider the ng-
| gravation to me:a, and the waste--and
| remember that public displays Of affec-
ton are in questionable tste.
| Ion't permit your voice to be high
and shrll. Cultivate those low and soft
tones which in the judgment of all ages
and all countries constitute one of the
charms of woman.
Don't read private OF family letters so
loud that half the people in railway
car or ferry boat are compelled to hear
T Don't shove up a window in the car let
| ting in draft on jnvaiids or rheumatic
people who are made TO suffer by the
| heartlessness or thoughtlessness of those
I who ought TO know better and do better.

An AstOnislied Cat.

Gautier, the French writer, had cat
which slept on his bed nights, on the
arm of his chair daytimes, followed hin.
when he walked, and always kept him
company at meals. One daJ a friend
left his parrot in Gautier's charge
during his absence. The poor bird sat
disconsolate on the top of his stand.
while the cat stared at the strange
sight. Gautier followed her thought,
and read there clearly:
''lt must be green chicken"
Thereupon she jumped from his
writing table, crouched fiat, with head
low, back stretched out at full length,
and eyes fixed immovable on the bird.
Parrot followed all the movements,
raised his feathers, sharpened his bill,
stretched ont his claws and evidently
prepared for war. The cat lay still.
but Gautier read again in her eyes:
mo doubt, though green, the chick.
en- must be good to eat"
Suddenly her back was archcd, and
with one superb bound she was on the
perch, when the parrot screamed out:
Have your breakfast, Jack?''
Pussy was almost frightened out OF
her wits. She cast an anxious glance
at her master. leaped down and hid
under the bed, from which no threat OF
caress could bring her out for the day.

CUPS and DoMns.o

Two men, about the same age one
well dressed and the other showing that
once he had been nearly ran into each
other Yesterday afternoon on the corner
of Sixth Avenue and Thirty-first Street.
They both laughingly apologized to
each other and went on their way.
There, did you see that??" asked q
well known horseman who was stand
ing in doorway talking to reporter.
There's more in that incident than
you think. 1t was the ups and downs
in life coming in contact"
''But's that's an everyday occur
rcnce," said the reporter.
'sYeS, that's SO; but let me tell YOU
it's an incident out of the common run.
Do you know who the smaller, shabby
looking man was? No. Well, that
was Johnny Crooks, the famous Cali
forna track driver. He has trotted for
thousands of dollars-won thousands
and lost thousands, for now he is as poor
Jobs turkey Noman ever had better
opportunities in the horse world to be-
come and stay rich man than he. He
is going about to-day trying to raise q
subscription to buy a trotting wagon.
He hasn't got cent left, he says. His
seat through life has been behind fast
horses-in q sulky.
"And the other man?"
"There he is now," replied the horse
man, pointing out nicely dressed,
large, well preserved man about fifty
five years of age, with gray hair and
iron gray mustache. "His name is
Owen McCabe. He is the private
coachman for the widow of the late A.
G. Clark, of this CITY, Talk OF being a
bank clerk or walking gentleman in o
high toned drygoods store! Even their
positions amt sinecures compared to
his. All he has to do is to drive the
Clark family about little in the morn
ing. Very seldom it is that he has to go
out at night. When Mr.. Clark died he
left him $4,000. Heis worth 100000
now, and his seat has been on the box,
which shows that even coachman can
sometimes strike ile."
'.Now, that lets me in, said Ira
Brown, the livery stable keeper; "but
Iii get my man to tell his story for him
self What he says will be the truth.
He has driven for me for over fifteen
years, and l know him."
Mr.. Brown then sent boy to his
stable, who presently came back with
an English looking old man, with white
hair. Charles Wards his name, -"
whispered Mr. Brown. Now, Ward, J"
he continued, ''you struck oil down in
Pennsylvania once, tell these gentle
men about it.
Then the old driver told how he had
bought a small piece of property in
Lords Valley, in Pike County, for a
few dollars, and one day had found oil
in his spring. The news got out, /" he
said. s'and was offered S200,0 in
gold for my land"
"And you wouldn't think of taking it
because you thought you were giving
your land awayP" interrogated Mr..
Brown.
sJust So" replied the old man.
''And you did not get any money or
become rich?"
NO" but he added, with sly wink,
as he whipped up and drove away,
1--WE got the land yet, MIR, Brown. -
