A hoteistewardwho is giving advice for
thepurchase of culinary implements said the
otherd day that he knew Of no line Of bust
ness in which greater abuses have grown up
than this. Tho firms that manufacture
kitchen goods have. long made it practice
to give a tip to each cook every time he buys
anything or orders any repairs made. The
consequence Is that the most intense opposI-
ton made to any progressive movement Of
the day Is that which combats all the new
inventions for saving labor or material. Az
an instance, there is a new process for doing
every form Of cooking without the direct APP
plication Of fire, and the especial beauty OF
it, beyond the fact that IL cooks perfectly,is
that the roasters, boilers and broilers prac-i
ideally never wear out. On this account the
invention languishes, except when q bold
proprietor takes the matter out of the cooks
hands and makes his own equipment. But
even il he does hat he win find that cooks
are apt to rely to work with these modern
tools, and, II ey take the situations, win
declare that machinery will not keep In
order.--Nevk ork Sun.

Ideal Gardens. Are sureested.

advantages in its endless variety Of scenery,
the unrivaled richness of its fora, and such
diversity of soil and climate, that somewhere
within its borders every extra tropical plant

conceive nothing more beautiful and ere-
freshing than spring garden I'm New Eng
land, when vegetation bursts suddenly forth
from the restraints Of long winter" "And
what a field for the landscape artist Is offered
in the warm, rich valleys of the southern
Alleghanies, the home of the most beautiful
deciduous forests I'm the world. Hero he can
collect all plants belonging to the temperate
zone"
"Another ideal garden could be made on
our northwest coast, where plants that luxu-
riate In moist regions would be at home;
while in Southern California could be gath
cred the trees Of the Mexican plateau, of the
Mediterranean basin, of Australia, and OF all
the dry countries In the world; and here
gardens might be made surprising In rich

Perhaps, however, the peculiar creative
genius of the people is shown more markedly
in the stone axes and other tools and in the

POTTERY, IMPLEMENTS, SKELETONS.
5 Some of the specimens of pottery and orna-
ments, as shown in drawings and in actual
examples brought home by Professor Morse,
are of most interesting character. In jugs
and Jars bird forms are seen; one is like a
bird without head, the wings being roughly
indicated on the sides, and on another bird
head springs from one side. The decoration
is generally In conventional lines. The stone
implements are principally choppers, AIDES,
mills for grinding corn, and other forms, the
use of which is problematic The shellwork
Is apt to be covered with beautiful designs,
and with these appear clasps, curious little
bird forms carved out of stone, and finger
rings and bracelets made out Of shell and In
laid with turquois and other precious stones.
Many Of these would be accepted as clever
works Of art today.
z Nearly 200 skeletons have thus far been
found. This is the more remarkable, and by
scientists is considered a special reason for
congratulation from the fact that ancient
Pueblo skeletons have been heretofore ex-
tremely rare. Previous TO the work of this
expedition it is said that only three or four
have ever been found. The exhuIning of
these skeletons has resulted in very Inn

pology, the exact nature Of which, however,
has not yet been made public. Boston Cor

How They Fumigate Letters.

Letters from the stricken yellow fe-
yer section are fugimated in novel
way, so that there is little or no chance
for the disease being brought north
ward. The letters are all stopped
when they reach the quarantine lines.
Each letter is put under a machine
with long arm attached, and this is
provided with little teeth punctured
at the ends. A powder that is used
for fugimating purposes is forced
through the arm and down through
the teeth. The arm comes down on
each letter, and while the little teeth
are perforating the letter the powder
is blown in between the sheets, disin-
fecting the letter thoroughly. Then it
is forwarded to the person to whom it
is addressed, Some complaint has
been heard of damage to letters, but
so long as they remain legible a little
Disagreement should be welcomed as a
proof of protection.--N y World.
