Take a common slate with frame, any
size, and paint it any color you choose.
When dry, decorate it within and painted
flowers or landscape. or with some of the
pictures cut from your store of cards.
The effect of the latter is often more
pleasing than hand painting. Gid the
frame then across one end and about the
middle of the frame insert row of orna-
mental hooks, knobs and fancy screws. On
the same side and in the two opposite cor
ners put two small hooks, to which attach
a chain or ribbon. Hang this upon your
wall in some convenient place and if put
to the right use you will always know
where to find YOUR boot hook. your scis-
sors, your latch key. and many sother
articles too often missing when most
needed. One very trim and orderly
housewife of my acquaintance keeps one
of these ornamental states in her room.
One side is implanted, and on this she
keeps weekly account of the family ex-
penses.

Then cut a circle just to fit the neck for
which it is intended. Bind with turkey

How TO WASH LACEs.
Cover 4 heavy, round glass bottle with
cotton flannel Round this wind the lace

Then in a pail of warm suds swash the
bottle, occasionally spatting it, until the
lace is clean. Rinse in the same way
several times, after which dip it in a So
luton of gum arabic of just sufficient
strength to give finish to the lace, then
place it in the sun to dry. When dry re-
move the stitches with great care. take
from the bottle and spat it between the
hands, giving it one or two gentle pulls
lengthwise. 1t will look As fresh and

The fundamental difference between
American political parties exists now
as 1t has in the past. says the New
York Tribune. The Democratic par
ty is opposed to-day to constructive
legislation on behalf of American in
dustries as it was fifty years ago. 1t
antagonizes Civil Service reform and
remedial legislation OF any kind, from
a Ballot Reform act in New York to a
Temperance law liz New Jersey, Michi-
gan or Kansas, precisely as it nee
DISTRACTED the aBtislavery agitation,
the constitutional amendments, the
resumption Of specie payments, or
legislation for the vigorous prosecu-
ton OF the war. In nearly every
northern state it has been the un-
swerving opponent Of the restriction
of the liquor traffic and the suppress
sion of the drink evil. 1t is a party
that has never been swayed by moral
issues, and has never favored creative
or progressive legislation.

ton, says The New York Tribune, as
reported by our correspondent in In

returned from tho Pacific coast, where
he kept his eyes open and observed
the signs of the times. He discovered
unmistakabie indications of the
strong set OF the current in favor Of
Harrison and Morton. The free.wool
matter alone is sufficient to decide the
election in favor of the party of pro-.
lection, and the 1000 majority which
Oregon recently gave for the Republi.
can ticket he looks to see increased in
November to 5000.
