TOILET SEr.-Take piece OF brown
Holland and trace a design of daisies
md leaves. Work the latter and stems
with dark-green crewels. For the dal-
sizes, thin white Swiss muslin is used.
Cut in strips an inch wide. Take one
strip and cut it little longer than the
petal; gather one end and with piercer
make try hole in the point OF the
traced petal; press the end Of the gath
erei muslin through this, and fasten 1t
securely on the wrong side. Proceed
in this manner until all the petals are
covered. Work the stamens with yel-
low crewel in French knot-stitch. This
is done by bringing the threaded needle
up through the centre of the flower;
hold the thread down with the thumb
of the left hand. and with the needle ID
the right hand place II under the thread
once or twice, according to the size OF
the thumb. place the point OF the nee-
die in the same place it was brought
through, draw it out slowly and, when
the knots are firm, secure on the wrong
side. Finish the edges with rick rack
edging or with antique lace. The sew
eral mats and pin-cushion cover are

FOLDING SCREEN.-For simple fold
ing screen, suitable for a chamber or
dining room, you will use seven yards
of firm, unbleached cotton cloth, three
and one-haIf yards each of olive silesla
and of upholstery cretonne, three small
brass hinges and several dozen brass-
headed lacks, and two frames, each five
feet high and two and one-quarter feet
broad. These frames are made of four
strips of pine board one inch thick and
two and one-half inches wide, nicely
jointed at the corners 50 as to be quite
flat. Ii is preferable to have the Gre
tonne of bright but harmonious
colors and of large figures. The land
scape patterns are pretty for this.
Cover the frames on both sides with
white cotton cloth, fasten 1t with very
small common tacks, and after that
stretch tightly across one side OF each
a piece of the cretonne an inch larger
all around than the frame. On the other
side stretch the silesia, with the
edges turned in and overlapping
the cretonne, and fasten these in
the middle of the inch wide edge with
row of the brass headed tacks on
what the two panels are Joined together
with the hinges. The other two ends
must be sewed.

recent experiments by ftok Guthrie
have shown that an incandescent plat.
mum WIRE acts as discharge of cleo
triciiy, displaying preference for dis.
charging a negative rather than posi-
tive charge. If platinum wire, made
incandesceDt iy an electric current, is
placed between two gold-leaf electro
scopes, one charged with positive and
the oiber with negative electricity, 1t
will be found that the negative charge
is rapidly drawn of, while the positive
charge remains almost unaffected. The
wire in this experiment was at dull
red heat. and it is probable that high
er temperature would also have effected
the discharge of the positive elect ricity.

II pear trees are to be msnured this

better not to manure so late as this

almost certain result. But on sod
ground enough manure to mulch the
surface and partly keep down the grass
will be beneficial.

DURING the long summer days, when
COWS fresh In milk have plenty of grass,
theyscannot carry with ease the burden
of milk produced between early morning
and the usual time for milking at night.
Milking at noon is a good plan Ill such
cases. as it nearly equalizes the interven-
ing time. While the milk is in the bag
some of Its fat is being constantly ab-
sorbed by the COW. Hence frequent
milking produces a larger product of
butter, but the COW needs all the heavi-
er feeding to stand such demand on
her milk-producing capacity.

PRETTY devices for designating the
place certain guests shall take at the
table are employed by those happy
housewives who can devote time to the
poetry at home. One very pretty way
is to have an alphabet made of TIN,
have each letter about three inches
high and have the little tin forms deep
enough to hold a little sand or wet
moss. Then fill the forms with tiny
flowers and leaves. Another way,
though not so easy to make, is to have
the form in the shape of a card. and on
the background of green put the guests
initial with small flowers.

HUMOROUS.

MAJOR C-is exceedingly fond Of
the game of whist. On one occasion
he was speaking of the way in which
adverse luck will sometimes pursue q
man, and remarked that he once play ed
whole season at the White sulphur
Springs and never held a trump. Some
one in the company suggested that that
was impossible, because he must have
held at least one trump every time he
dealt the cards. But the Major replied.
every time / dealt it was q mlsdeal. !"
He illustrated the same idea in
another wsy. He said he was once in
a party when the proposition was made
to throw dice for drinks and cigars. He
threw several times, and every time the
dice came out ace, deuce. He was
yexed, and threw them with all his
might against the wall of the loom.
When he went to pick them up from
the floor he was confronted with the
same one and two spots He went to
the window and pitched them as far as
he could in the yard.
The next day he felt like trying his
luck again, and lot having another pair
of dice, he went out into the yard to
hunt them up. StoopIng down and
peering closely INTO the grass. his eyes
finally rested on the ace. He was so mad
that he made mental resolution that if
he found the other dice with the deuce up
he would swallow them. He found it
at last; and it was the deuce. He swal-
lowed them both forthwith. Eve min
ures later he became dreadfulIy alarmed
at what might be the consequences of
his rash act, and took strong emetic.
The dice were soon deposited on the
grass again. Sand as sure as you are
alive" said the MAJOR, ''there lay the
same old ace, deuce"
