Mrs. Harrison complains of lack of
room in the White House and says the
House is so crowded that the presidents
family can have no privacy. Our idea
of it is the House is large enough: but
the President has too many families
boarding with him at the public crib.
There is Mrs. Harrison's fathers fam
lily and the families of all of the Presi-
dents married children, 1t is not sup
posed that the government has to pro-
vide for all of a mans relatives when
he is elected to Office.

Character in Finger Nails.

u rulCeA 0lscclGt
Fortune-telling by means of the finger
nails, o~mychomancy, as it was called. was
not uncommon in ancient times. The prac-
tice was to rub the nails with oil and SCOT
or wax and to hold up the nails thus pre-
pared against the sun, and upon the trans
parent horny substance were supposed TO
appear figures or characters which gave the
answer required. In more recent times
people have been found predicting by
means of the nails of the hand, and telling
the disposition of persons with certain de-
scriptions of nails. However absurd il
may appear. we shall give examples of this
superstition. A person with broad nails
is of gentle nature, timid and bashful.
Those whose nails grow into the flesh at the
points or sides are given to luxury. A
white mark on the nail bespeaks mis-
fortune. Persons with very pale nails are
subject to much infrmity of the flesh, and
persecution by neighbors and friends. Peo-
pie with narrow nails are ambitious and
quarrelsome. Lovers of knowledge and
liberal sentiment have round nails. Indo-
lent people have generally heshy nails.
Small nails indicate littleness of mind. OBJ
stinancy and conceit. Melancholy persons
are distinguished by their pale or lead-col-
ored nails; and choleric. martial men, de-
lighting IN war, have led and spotted nails.

noted seaside r~esort-the ladies who con-
Quoted 1T were all attired in lovely muslin
gowns, with white India null aprons,
trimmed with lace, and mob caps to match.
New England supper was served on the
lawn under the arching trees. and there
was an old fashioned barn-dance in the
evening. Very elegant fancy articles were
sold al ast0nishingly high prices, and even
the smaller articles brought many times
their real value-all for sweet charity's
sake. Exceedingly pretty articles were
artificial flowers, wood and sea MOSES, and
green hazelnuts and acorns. artistic

grasses and enameled pine cones. etc.
Workings were made of the crowns of
straw hats, dyed and vanished The in
side of the crowns were lined with silk of a
shade to match-peacock blue, olive and
old rose being favorite colors. A good
length of the silk reached above the edge
of the straw. This was thorn-stitched and
finished with a hem wide enough for double
runners of narrow ribbon TO draw up the
mouth of the bag. Stars in wool were
worked upon some of the crowns. These
receptacles sold remarkably well. not one

A party of fossil hunters are having good
luck in the North Fork country of Oregon.
They have found the bones of small horses,
with three toes on each foot: rhinoceros
skulls and other bones that show. as they
think, that Oregon had a tropical climate

north and covered the land miles deep with
