The following advice is given 10y The Art
Amateur TO II correspondent who wants to
know a cheap but effective way Of curtaining
the narrow and dispruportinnately high
windows Of a poorly hghtel sitting room:
Cut off from the upper part of the windows
enough To make the height Of the windOw pro
portionate TO the width, and fill the upper
part with japanese lattice work which can
lie bought very cheap at almost any Of the
japanese stores. Below have narrow brass
pole, with the usual brass rings. From this
suspend Crete curtains, which ar. transpar-
rent, but heavier than the similar grcnadinc
goods called Madras. With IA light buff or
rich cream-colOr window shade aS a hack
ground for the latticrwork, as it will
be if the shades are kept down foot or
two, you will retain morr light in the room
than you could secure 10y the use Of any other
kind of curtains and have an artistic effect at
a small expense. Exchanges

Helen Hunt Jack.on's sensitiv.ne...


No one loved beauty more than she; no
one could drPr,ciate the body more when it
began 10 lose its freshness For strong
young men in their prime, for bl"oming girls
and mature wumanhood. she had an admira-
ton a. frank and almost as unqualified As {.
Gr,ekS But her very alteration Of physical
lovelincsS made her peculiarly sensitive to
imTs'rfeCiion and the dismal ac,ompaniments
OF sickness In her own case, when accident
brought intirnity upon her, il was reviewed
AT first with a Shudder of disgust, a kind of
quick impulSive scorn, Of which, perhaps,
only noble natures are capable She spoke uf
her illness as "a career of disgrace 1t was
not, probably. for the loss of creature com
forts, nor even the long train Of affections
which it entailed; these she could endure;
they proved, in fact, a field for the exercise
of fortitude which was little short of heroic.
Health meant liberty. its loss an endless
series Of restrictions affecting her activity
and the free play Of her intelligence She
resented them as something outside Of her
self, which deserved only contempt and
chaStising. Her soul, she thought, could lift
itself above then-waS above them.
Throughout her sufferings, she kept her
sunnineSS of spirit, her serenity and elias
ticity. And she continued to work This, in
Iced, was All integral part Of her creed. To
idlers and dilettanu she bad always turned a
cold shoulder; they had no place in her
scheme of things. If her antipathy assumed
at times a humorous form, it was none the
less real and deep seated. 1t would have
gratified the most rigid economist To have
heard her set forth this thesis Of life
period Of active production. She rejoiced to
call herself, and be called, a working woman;
there was no better title under heaven to her
sense, and her life WAS a long enforcement Of
the belief, a fruitful illustration Of how it
could be practiced with dignity and success.
