Rearing In mind the danger from
fouled air, we should exercise care In
excluding from our bedrooms all hang
ings or curtains of wooden or thick cot
ton materials, as especially liable TO re.
tain dirt and disease germs, and IN this
category / would include carpets made
of woolen or cotton. Hard wood floors,
oil cloth, straw mating, in the order
named, are certainly the best materials
for use, if We study simply health. II
for other reasons We wish the warmth
and diminution of noise, procured by
using WOODEN or cotton carpets, lay over
the lrst material rugs that can be read
ily removed and cleansed outside Of the
room. Linen shades to exclude
or mitigate the light at the win
dows, with lace or muslin, curtains for
aesthetic c. Get, are all that is allowable
in a bedroom.
OF equal Importance is the proper care
of the bed and bedding. Bedsteads are
usually made of wood. Metal is in
every way pre- cradle. A wrought iron
or brass hedstead properly constructed
that is o. light weight, mounted on
castors, so as to be easily moved and
readily cleaned, meets every demand
Especially should We seek one readily
moved, We would have it and its sur
roundings properly cared for by sery,
ants. NO articles o whatever kinC
should be kept under the Eel To pre-,
vent this, dispense with "yalances and
tuck in the bed clothes. Curtains about
the bed are simply tiers, sure to catct
and retain the impurities as the air from
the lungs passes through them.
The mattress should lie made OF elias.

TO the weight of the body. Horse hail
furnishes the best material; cotton,
wool or feathers the poorest substitute
A well-made hair mattress, resting or
woven wire spring mattress, leave:

Hair pillows are preferable TO feather
pillows where We desire to prevent heat

Practically Settled II.


W. NJ. Peauchamp tells in The Young
Antiquarian of discussion that re-
Gently arose among the OnondagO Indi.
ans of New York on the form of the
earth. One Indian said il was round,
because men had Travelled in a straight
line ana cone back 10 the same place.
TO this il was replied that men were apt
TO travel in circles, as they often do
when lost Then it was urged that
white men said SO, and they knew more
than the Indians; but, it was answered,
white men often lied, as the Indians
very well knew. A practical philoso.
phcr solved the whole difficulty by driy-
ing stake into the ground and placing
an apple on il at night. In the morn
ing the apple was still there, 10 his
great satisfaction; whereas, he said, if
the earth had reyolyed in the night the
apple would have fallen off. The ques.
tion is no longer discussed there.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.

A Pretty and Profitable Employment for
Women of Refinement.
AS a reporter was passing a shop on
the West Side he happened to glance
through the window, and his attention
was arrested by the proceedings of a
young and pretty girl inside. She had
fs,me before her, around which she
deftly twined moss and small green
leaves. and then, as she stepped back to
see the effect of her work, tied white
roses neatly in the corners. Entering
the shop, the proprietor was found
working up to his elbows in mass of
pretty flowers and leaves. The re-
porter ventured to say that it was a
pity to use such delicate buds so rough
1y, and the man looked up and said. as
he laughed: "Why, these are not real
flowers they're only artificial. There,
you may crush up that rosebud as much
as you like, but you won't do it much
harm. These are not the kind that
crumple and decay, as the poet says,
though what poet can't for the life Of
me say. What's that young woman
doing? Why she's making Coates
Ajar" for funeral party, and as its
got to be delivered tonight, she will
have to work pretty smart to get
through in good time. Artificial flower
making is quite new industry in Chi
cago. but judging from the way it has
already taken root think it will soon
be very flourishing. 1t is purely an
exotic, imported from Paris, where
there are vast establishments devoted
to nothing else but the manufacture OF
flowers and leaves gathered from every
quarter of the globe. These" peint-
ing to row of large green leaves,
which were marked irregularly by bars
of the most brilliant scarlet magma
ble-.' these are plants which you would
think exaggerated in their coloring.
The people of Paris thought SO when
they were first introduced; but they
know now that they are merely exact
limitations of the Mexican begonia.
limitations of allyour rarest American
flowers are now to be found in the
drawing-rooms of Paris, side by side
with the orchids gathered in Borneo,
or perhaps along the almost un-
explored headwaters of the Ori-
noco. I myself learned the
art of making artificial flowers
in the French capital, and think | am
the only person in this country who
has done so; and, so far as that goes,
[ don't think that even in New York
there is firm that makes flowers from
the stem to the bud as we do over here
in Chicago. I have three French girls
that brought here with me and half a
dozen ChicagA girls. The latter l
took in hand to train little over three
months ago, and already they are doing
very well, making up good leaves and
the simpler flowers, such as these snow
balls. The most laborious flowers to
initiate are rosebuds, Gala lilies, hello
tropes, lilies of the valley and lilacs.
Look at this lilac, and you will see that
the little dots of yellow seed have to be
put in each separately by process
which is a secret of the trade, and that
every minute stem has to be covered
with silk just exactly the hue OF the
stems of the natural flower. Perhaps
the pond lily, which has an open calyx,
is the easiest of all flowers to initiate.
