A Fire worshIner,s Child.

On the birth of ParSee child, a magian
and a fire priest, who is always an as

he draws curious figure OF bird, beast,

Kate Fields "Co-operative" Plan.

Kate Field is known TO be a woman Of
versatile talent, but is hardly suspected,
by those not intimately acquainted with
her, to have the qualities that go to make
a good bousekceper. She showed great
tact for that feminine branch of art when
she had n house of her own in Devonshire
street, London, few years ago. She had
been living for some time in hotels, board
ing houses and lodgings, was tired Of all
and determined to set up for herself.
Having no desire to live alone, she made
plan by which she would have company
and all the comforts Of home, and still
have the bills shared by others. She
called the plan "co-operation, " the same
name she gave to another and moro ex-
tensive undertaking on this side Of the
water.
1t worked well as far as the cooper
Rtives were concerned-they were all per-
fectly satisfied. She furnished rooms at
low prices and the kind of food that is
longed for If you live ut restaurant and
dreamed about IL you have to live at
home. After dinner every one found the
axawing room plessanter than any other
room in that or any other house, and
there the friends conSregated, for, Of
course, they were all friends of the host
ess. They chatted and played cards until
the "night cap' hour came round, and
after a mild libation retired to bed ok.

turned out to be only name, for it was
