Charming Styles in Furniture.

Special lines of pretty furniture in grace
full designs and delicate colors, suitable for
summer cottages on the shore and in the
mountains, or for the many modest homes
where rich, heavy effects are not desirable,
are offered TO purchasers. In noting some of
these Good Housekeeping tells that natural
woods in light colors, such as birch, white
maple, satin wood, bamboo and mahogany,
which is not of deep tone when finished in its
natural condition, are lose rivals of the fine
white, pink and blue enagnels, which, how
ever, still surpass all other effects for light
summer or winter rooms.
The best enameled work comes from France.
The enamels so prettily used in this country
have not the staple properties of the French
article, which does not stain, turn yellow or
blister. Still very satisfactory sets, or single
pieces of furniture can be made at home with
the domestic enamel, which can be purchased
for twenty-five cents a large bottle. The
piece to be decorated must be carefully freed
from paint or varnish by scraping, or else a
plain, implanted piece may be procured from
the factory. If the enamel be well rubbed
in land the home artist is hereby advised that
the process requires strength and patience,
and should not be crowded into day, or half
dozen, if several pieces are to be prepared.
beautiful effect may be obtained which will
amply compensate for considerable effort
Nothing could be more charming for q
sleeping room or summer parlor than these
fresh, white surfaces, either plain or picked
out with bands and suggestions of gold The
chairs may be cane seated, painted white, or
upholstered in olive, old rose, pink, blue or
terra Gotta plush, or with delicate hued silk
tapestries or with nice patterns of cretonne,
according to ones taste or purse. A very
artistic set was displayed which is upholster
Il in Aubson tapestry, a close imitation of
the priceless Gobelin, but finely woven in

parlor pieces, chairs and sofas in broad, low,
inviting shapes, odd little tables and cabinets

was so artistic and effective and so easily imi-

The Cause of Fog.

II. a. Hazen, in Science, asserts the cause
OF fog as follows: l. 1t is essential that there
be no wind do not mean that the wind
does not blow the fog after it is formed, but
there must be little or none while it is form
ing. 2. The sky must be clear. We often
notice a cloudless sky after fog Is dissi-
peted. On weather maps ''fog" is entered as
fair, for, though not a particle of sky is visi-
BILE yet it is almost a certainty that the sky
Is clear. s. The air must be saturated or
nearly so. 1t is very surprising how rarely
the last condition occurs at inland stations
A relative humidity Of 95 per. cent has been
noted in the air in which rain is falling and
had been falling continuously for seventeen
hours. This condition almost always can
occur only to the south, southeast or north
east of storm. At nightfall, whenever
these conditions combine, there is a rapid
radiation from the earth to the sky, which
speedily supersaturates the everything air !;
and after that radiation from the upper sur
face of the fog continues the process and ex-
tends the fog upward until the action ceases
with the rising of the sun.

SIisused Vacations.

According to The Lancet many sudden
deaths are caused each year by misuse of the
vacation season, and also affirms that the ex-
perience of most city physicians shows that
overstrain Is often followed by prolonged i'll
ness. We know wise lawyer who never
did anything the first day of his vacation, as
little as possible the second, took a short walk
the third, two short walks the fourth, and
not until the eighth day was ready to climb
a mountain. By this cautious course he grew
stronger to the end and returned home with
vitality enough to work till the next outing
came around. One can make great change
IN his habits without detriment if he takes a
long time 70 do it, but only young persons
can risk sudden changes, and they sometimes
fall victims to the strain.

How to Dry Lace Curtains.

A puzzle to the home laundress who does
up her own curtains is how to dry them
nicely. A quick and easy way is the follow
ing:
Have made nice, light frame, similar to
an old fashioned quilting frame, and consist
ing of two long side strips and two short
ones for the ends. Wind the strips with
cloth, and let the corners of the frame be
held firmly by wooden pins put through the
holes made for that purpose. Put the frame
on chairs out of doors in the sun. Pin the
starched curtain to the cloth of the frame,
first the sides, then the bottom and, lastly,
the top of the curtain, drawing it carefully
into shape. A curtain will dry quickly III
this way and may soon be replaced by an
other, and whole set may be dried in short
time,

STANDING EVERY DOMINO UPON ITS POINT.
By another method it is even possible to
arrange the dominoes in a straight line. To
do this, the cover of the box is used as a sup
port for the first piece, and the others are
placed in the same order as in the previous
experiment, taking care to make the inclina-
ton somewhat less. After all are in place,
the ends are steadied by the hands and
pressed together, while the line of dominoes
is gently worked back and forth until the de-
sired stability is obtained when the box
cover may be removed and the dominoes left
standing by themselves, mutually supported
by each other upon their points
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1889-09-13

A pleasing scientific recreation is afforded
by box of dominoes, the problem being to
stand every piece upon its point without the
aid of any foreign OBJECT. This, explains
La Nature, is accomplished by arranging
them in q circle, as shown in the engraving,
the first domino being kept in position by
resting it against another one which lays fiat
upon the table When the circle is almost
completed the two ends are carefully steadied
with the hands, and the recumbent domino
raised to an upright position, forming, as it
were, the keystone of the structure This is
the only part of the experiment requiring
any care, and, as is shown in the engraving,
the greatest stability is obtained By giving
the dominoes such an inclination that the
top of each rests against the middle dividing
line of the succeeding one.

of Madison, under the auspices of the
High School Alumni, delivered at the
Opera house Friday evening, was well
attended. Before introducing the
speaker, A. j. Whiting, in brief ad
dress, summarized the aims and pur-
poses of the Watertown High School
Alumni association. The lecturer gave
a glowing account of the Yellowstone
Park and the wonders to be met with
in that region, which challenge the
world for comparison. Prof. Freeman
is speaker of fine descriptive powers,
and before he closed his auditors be-
came quite familiar with the scenes he
so clearly and wildly depicted.
