Central Parks Obelisk.

There is something pathetic in the
present condition of the obelisk in Gen.
tral park, New York. 1t is going to
pieces, unable to withstand the climatic
changes that exist on the island of Man
haitian. This flinty relic of long ago,
that stood unchanged amid the fierce
heat of Egypt for twenty centuries, is
rapidly disintegrating after few years
exposure to the frosts and storms of the
land of its adoption. A few years ago
the grand old monolith was given coat
ing of parafine, the surface Of the stone
having been previously heated. But this
treatment has failed to stay the destroy
ing hand of the frost king, or to render
the obelisk proof against extreme
changes of temperature. But one course
is regarded as open in order that the
shaft may be preserved indefinitely, and
that is to put up building that shall in
close it. There is no difficulty in the
way of this procedure, and a high domed
ediice should put a barrier between
the pitiless elements and this superb and
historical mass Of stone.-Pittsburg Bull
letin.

Tiger and Boa-Both Dead.

On the Sth Of August, not far from
Tanjong Prick, near Batavia, India, q
tiger was shot under peculiar circum-
stances. The sportsmen out in the jun
gle there heard a fearful rumpus going
on O good way off. On reaching the
scene Of the uproar they suddenly found
themselves face to face with a tiger in
the coils Of big snake, which with its
mouth was cndesvoring to get hold Of
the tigers neck. The tiger, on the other
hand, was doing its best to reach the
neck of the snake. After being momeri.
tarily terror stricken by the sight, the
two sportsmen did not allow either ami.
NAL time to perceive or attack them, but
forthwith took aim-the one at the head
Of the tiger, tho other at that Of the
snake. The tiger was hit behind the ear,
and the snake in the middle Of the head.
The distance at which the shots were
fired was hardly fifteen PAGES. The
head of tho former proved to be that Of
a royal tiger. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Four years ago, when presenting the
blind preacher, William H. Milburn,
as a candidate for Chaplain Of the
House, William r. Morrison, then
Chairman OF the Ways and Means Com
mittee, and leader of the House, sum-
med up his qualifications by saying of
him: HE loves God, hates the devil,
and votes the Democratic ticket.n
These were then considered very good
qualifications. 1t appears from the
action Of the few Republicans who boil
tedlthe nominee of their own caucus
and voted for Mr.. Milburn's reelection
that these qualities still stand the blind
preacher in good stead. There is a good
deal that is ridiculous about making the
chapIaincy of the house a political
office, whatever party may be in power.
Therefore, the Republicans who broke
away from caucus nominee deserve
praise for doing so, as similar number
of Democrats would deserve praise un-
der similar circumstances Y

Hot and cold cistern water cocks and self
closing cold city water cock are shown over
the sink. On the splash board above are
shown hooks for utensils. At the left of the
sink and over the left hand table is series
Of shelves, which may be provided with doors
in front if desired. Pots and kettles may be
placed on a shelf over the cellar way. Draw
ers are shown in both tables. The pipe duct
Is Of WOOD, with the face secured with screws.
Il connects with the plumbing apparatus
above. There is an opening near the top Of
this duct, through which the warm air from
the kitchen may pass and keep the pipes
warm in cold weather.
The dishes are brought from the dining
room in tray, which is placed near the door
which goes from the dining room to the pas
sage. The doors are swung on double swing
hinges; that is, they swing both ways. They
come to closed position as soon as one let's

dining room, placed on the table at the left Of
the sink in the kitchen. They are washed at
the sink, allowed to drain on the drain board,
are wiped from the drain board and placed
on a tray on the right hand table. From
thence the tray is carried to the china cup
board. The movement Of the dishes is in the
right direction-from the left hand table to
the china closet A dry box is shown over
the range 1t is box about two feet and q
half high, with shelves arranged on one side
Of it, There are inch auger holes in the bot
tom, top and shelves of the box. Thus hot
air from the range passes up through it. On
the shelves may be placed scrub brushes. At
one side of it may be hung scrub rags, etc.
There is door at the front of the box; hence
they are out Of sight and are readily dried.
The soap box is constructed the same as the
dry box, excepting there are no auger holes
in the top. It has two inch tin pipe con-
nection with the fue. The soap is dried, and
the odor is carried into the flue.
There may be large ventilating hood over
the range connected with the fue.
All Of the woodwork Of this kitchen is as
plain as possible and is Of oak. This makes

shortness of breath, asthma, etc.; in the
brain. dizziness, headache, ETC.; in the stom-
ach, wind, pain, indigestion, faint spells. etc. !;

As to the preparation Of the food, there is
the pastry table in the pantry, adjacent to it
shelves for utensils, at the right the flour
bin and near it the ice chest. Over this ice
chest is window through which the ice man
has placed the ice without complaint during
O period of four years. There is drain from
the under side of the ice chest to the outside
Of the pantry wall. Where a drain is not
provided for refrigerator, the only thing to
do is to place pan under it. When the pan
runs over it is known to be full. No one can
carry pan full of water without spilling it.
This makes labor. The refrigerator drain
saves labor.
In this household the meat is prepared for
the range at the table at the left of the
kitchen sink. The vegetables are washed at
the sink, allowed to drain at the drain board
and are placed in their proper receptacles on
the table The utensils sit in the shelves
above this table ready for use. The stove is
directly back of the table, so that all there
is to do is to turn around to be near it.
The view of the side wall in the kitchen
shows that none of these tables is inclosed
The sink and all rest on legs in front, and are
secured to cleat on the wall. There is a
splash board running full length of the sink
and tables, back of which pass the pipes. All
the woodwork which covers the plumbing is
put together with screws, which can be read
lily removed in case of necessity. Thus all of
the plumbing apparatus is accessible. A
force pump is shown on the kitchen floor,
with the handle coming up through slot be-
tween the drain board and the kitchen table,
This force pump may be used to pump water
to either the kitchen sink or the attic When
the pump is not in use the handle may be
pushed back out of the way.

IN that household. 1t was a personal ques-
ton to that architect. A description Of q

with the dining room, china room and PAN
Try cannot mean much to the reader. Hence
the complete arrangement is here shown. A
kitchen should be planned with reference to
thee things: The preparation Of the food,

in q kitchen. Laundry work may be best
