Notwithstanding the vast sums of money
lavished by Great Britain upon her Palace
Of Westminster, she now finds the Com
mons chamber wholly unfit for the purpose
for which it was designed, and discussion
Of new chamber has already begun. The
size of the present chamber is based upon
the idea that the best thing members have
to do is not to listen to debates. There is
not near seating capacity for all the mem
bers, neither is there proper ventilation.
Members also begin to demand desks for
writing purposes similar to those in the
French Assembly and American House of
Representatives.

Ladies can make their own plush picture
frames. Have a cheap pine frame of the
size required, get enough plush to cover
the whole size Of the frame and to turn
over one inch on the back Of the fame
Now lay your plush full done on table
nave ready paste or glue, lay your frame
lace down on the plush and mark with a
pencil the inside line or opening of the
frame, but do not cut out the plash now
with brush cover the full of the frame
with glue or paste, and replace it face
down upon the plush, taking care that the
lines you have drawn are in exact position
with the opening in the frame. Now turn
your frame over with the plush on it and
smoothe it softly-not lay the pile of the
plush-then apply the glue to the sides of
frame and turn the plush over them.
After all this is done, and we'll done, cut
out the center, being careful to allow
plenty to turn inside the frame. Finish
the corners neatly and be careful not to
soil the plush in handling it, and you have
a lovely frame at triaing expense.

and rod, and finished along the bottom

With cardinal balls; on the red curtain
bangs a brass plaque-a peacock blue
satin curtain with brass rings and ebonized
Ilod with fringe on bottom of tassels, is

supported by brass bands screwed to the
wal. Each shelf holds jar, or vase, or
bust, or large pieces of any ornamental

Tampa, on the West coast of Florida, is
likely to become an important port. Ii is

railroad system on direct line to Cuba
and the other islands of the West Indies.
Steamers already ply between Tampa and
Havana, making the trip, with a stop at
Key West, in about twenty-eight hours.
Tampa Bay makes a good harbor, but it

any other course Of action could do. These

A discovery recently made by DR..
Wood-the use of arsenic in the manufac-
ture of wall paper, and the presence Of
this poison in nearly every variety of it
is causing no little alarm in New York.
In view cf the fact that arsenieaI wall pa
per has been SO long in use, it seems
strange that the discovery of the danger
from it should be at so late a day as this.
The explanation given is that the effect Of
the arsenical poisoning is not clearly
marked, and the symptoms produced are
very similar to those Of a number Of COM
mon diseases. Many persons, therefore,
who have been in reality the victims of
poisoning have been disposed to attribute
their malady to other causes.
