A SIMPLE BOOKCASE.

The simplest bookcase Is best of
all End pieces about five feet high,
with grooves on the inside to hold
the shelves, the fronts of which are
eitherrounded or finished with strips
of pinked leather, and the shelves
themselves can be made by an ord1-
nary carpenter. Let 1t fill IN the
space between the chimney and end
of the room or the entrance door
way and the side, varnish it or stain
and varnish and then proceed to ar
range the treasures of many a life
time Do we realize that these best
works of good men and women are
the epitomes of vast labor, research
and thought? Then let us house
them with genuine tenderness.
1t IS good plan to have the bot
tom shelf broad enough to hold at
Iases and books of reference like heavy
cyclOpedias when laid on their sides,
unless we have for them special rests
or tables. Large, heavy leaves are
inclined to break away and drag
down from the back, and then n book
soon goes 10 ruin. That is the rea-
son why children should be taught
never to pick up book by one cover
only 1t tears the cover loose from
the back For no reason ought
child To be taken by the ear except to
show it how book fecls,-or to
book lover seems to feel,-when
dragged about by a single cover.
After the books are arranged in the
case there is left the upper shelf for a
couple of pictures on easels, with
central flower vase or bronze. But
to dedicate the space to an indis-
criminate lot of bric-a-brac is a desc
Grafton. Nor should it be used for
an old-paper shelf; let papers be rele-
gated to their proper receptacles. 1t
is. though. place for current maya
zines and a book or two subject to
daily perSual.
But the bookcase is not yet finish
ed In front, depending from a brass
rod, let us hang a curtain of India
silk, the color of which shall harmon
ize with the prevailing tint of the
room. This curtain should be drawn
only when the room is busted. On
sweeping day n muslin cover, kept
for this purpose, is thrown over the
top and reaches to the floor. For

OFF WITH THE OVER-CHECK REIN
That barbarOus Over-check rein is
receiving its just deserts from the

relates a very suggestive incident in
connection with this subject.
This morning passed a horse jog

THE EXTINCTION OF BUFFALOEs.

The arrival of four buffaloes in
Washington last week as a present
from ex-Indian Agent McCillicuddy
to the Smithsonian institute will be
followed by efforts of the government
to secure more specimens before the
species become extinct. \ statement
prepared by the Smithsonian officer
shows that twenty years ago there
were eight million buffaloes roaming
over the plains of the far west. To
day there are but 50 head of wild
buffaIoes. 3O4 alive in captivity, and
about 200 under the protection of
the government in Yellowstone park.
There is also said to be about $50
head in the British possessions north

given much credence by those who
are posted on the I1aunts and habits
of the shaggy brutes. OF the So head

exist, % are in Texas, 20 in CoIora-
