A Guild of parloz Dressers.
Good housekeeping


How to arrange room in these days
of brio -brac and business is no
small question. A guild will soon arise
of parIor dressers whose business it
shall be to study our tables and fix
our tides and settle our chairs. Mean
while, however, we must make shift
for ourselves as best we can. Absurd
as the idea appears, it is true of furni-
ture as of everything else, that to go
down to the bottom of things and seek
for the reason of its existence, will
speedily enough discover what use it
serves, and therefore what should be
done with it.
This is taking chairs au serioux, no
doubt, but it settles their place in the
world Immediately and absolutely as if
each was labeled with its own special
corner. Chairs are to sit in! 1t is
hardly necessary to write a thesis to ex
pound this fact, but it is as thoroughly
forgotten and neglected by the hostesses
and housekeepers of the world as the
medicinal uses of thorOughwort or the
relations of daisies 20 hay.

A DIPLOMATIC RusE.

How Lamartine Escaped the Embraces and
Kisses of Fifty Old Women.
In the year 184S Lamartine received
at the Hotel de Vile in Paris deputa-
ton of so-called Vesuviennes'' e.,
women of the people, who bore a
strong resemblance to the Tricoteuses,
or knitting-women of the Great Revo-
luton, and looked as if they meant
mischief. The band penetrated to the
room where Lamartine was at work;
he stood up and inquired what the
ladies wanted. ''Citizen," answered
their spokeswoman, 1.-THE Club of the
Vesuviennes have decided to send a
deputation to show how much they adj
mire you. There are about fifty of us
here, and we have received orders to
kiss you" The tone and manner in
which this was spoken showed plainly
that they would brook no denial How
ever lucky inspiration came to the re-
lief of the poet. 'CitOyennes, he said,
Il thank you very much for the senti-
ments to which you have just given eX-
preston, but allow me to tell you that
patriots like you have ceased to be
women, you are men-men of honor,
too. Now, men don't kiss each other,
but content themselves with shake of
the hand" The President of the Pro-
visional Government by this clever
maneuver escaped fifty embraces, to
his no little comfort and joy Chicago

Burning Incense at Home.

Boston Beacon.I
The agreeable fashion of burning
pastilles and fragrant herbs in rooms
that are apt to grow ''stuffy" in damp
weather, is almost substitute for a fire
on the hearth which purifies and cheers
the whole house. Ever since the mania
for Japanese decorations came in, there
has been a demand for the delicious
pastilles or reeds, which are the con-
densation of eastern fragrance, and
their use has brought about greater
love for aromatic odors Of refined and
purifying nature. The subtle sweetness
permeating articles that come from
China or Japan will last for years and
affect the atmosphere, not merely of the
room they are in, but of the entire
house.
There is not Rimmel or Lubin in
Europe that can produce this intoxicat-
ing, and, if one may say so, high-bred
perfume from the Orient, try as he may.
A bunch Of Japanese pastilIes, shoulder
ing one atsA time in a little incense
burner, WilFalast several weeks, while
for olfactories disliking any perfume,
however delicate, bit of gum camphor
or little stack of pine needles produces
a most refreshing odor while burning.
line needles can be gathered by the
bushel, and kept all winter to be thrown
on coal fires in city houses, or burnt by
themselves in one of those little chahng
dishes for which japanese art is famous.
