terferes with comfort. If room is to
be furnished let it have in it, first, the
things that are required: afterward, the
things that are necessary to make it
interesting.
The successful furnishing of room
depends quite as much on taste as it
does on the length of ones purse. Peo-
pie of moderate means should avoid
spending too much on chairs and ia
bles. The eye rarely rests on the ia
BILE, but it always looks at the things
on the table. Tables are almost always
too small for comfort or beauty. There
fore have a large table, with writing
materials and ample room for books and
papers. Avoid gilt on wall papers, and
velvet and plush in carpets and furni-
ture if your rooms are small. Ifpossible,
compare wall papers and carpets to see
how they affect one another, and do not
take it for granted thatif they are pretty
in themselves they will be pretty togeth-
er. Give rooms that open FROM one
another decidedly different tones of
color, that the eve may be rested by
the change, and not have to look out

FABLES.
THE HORSE AND THE ASS.

The Horse, adorned with his great
war saddle and champing his foamine
bits, though he didn't foam bit him.

pike in imitation of that ebony equine

dams Ride" When Winchester was
only five miles away he overlook an
Ass loaded with suffers supplies, NOV
ing slowly along on the same track.
Immediately the Horse sang out to
him, "Clear the track, for am COM
ing" The Ass did as commanded, and
the Horse Swept on with eyes full of
fire." and Winchester-well, Winches-
ter wasn't more than about a mile and
half away by this time
Not long after this same Horse, in q
fight with Indians on the front ear, was
hit just back of the ear with an empty
beer-bottle aimed with great accuracy
and power, and injured to such an ex-
tent thai he was no longer available for
the hippodrome, SO he was stripped of
his accOuterments and sold to o street
railroad company.
One day the ASS, who, for good con-
duct under fire had been promoted to
haul a tea-delivery wagon, met the
Horse drawing bob-tail car up steep
grade, and he smiled to think of the
day when this same horse came tearing
down the turnpike champing his bit so
madly. Now he didn't champ bit.

occasionally hard winter.
THE LIONEsS AND THE FOX.
One day the Lioness and the Fox got
talking over family affairs, and the
Fox took occasion to commiserate the
Lioness on the fact that her family did
not increase as rapidly as that of Fox.
He went on to tell her of several we'll
authenticated cases Of twins and even
triplets in the Fox family, taking pre-
miums frequently in baby shows, etc.
The Lioness admitted the superiority
of the Fox as multiplier, but remark
ed placidly that they were only Foxes

word, teeth, claws and all, and fully

Honesty Rewarded.

Some time ago wealthy man died
in Brussels, leaving nearly his entire
fortune to a young woman who was en-
tirely unacquainted with him. The
american Dirt Printer explains that
this is how it came to pass: He was q
very eccentric man, and set out, like
Diogenes, in search of an honest man.
His tub was an omnibus, and his Ian
tern small coin. In the omnibus he
used to take his seat every day near the
conductor, and always showed himself
very obliging in passing up the money
of passengers and returning the change,
but to the latter he always managed to
add franc or half franc. Then he
would watch those to whom it came.
They would count it carefully, notice
the extra coin, and invariably slip it
into their pockets. No one thought of
the poor conductor, whose meager sal
airy of three francs day could i'll sup
port such loss. But at last young
woman passed hers back with, @Con-
ductor, you have given me half franc
too much" Diogenes, delighted, fol-
lowed her home, made inquiries, and,
as the answers were satisfactory, made
his will in her favor, though he never
gave her warning that her half franc
was going to bring her half d million.

feature of huilding should indicate
reason for it's existence, and every
foot of space in q building should be
utilized and well lighted
The first plan printed in this article
shows an unusually pretty cottage, a
small one, it is true, but large enough
for neat, coy little home. 1t can be
erected at cost of 81, 500. The founda-
ton is Of stone, the first story of clear
siding and shingles and gable and roof
shingles. The plan provides living
room, kitchen and two bed rooms on
the first floor and large well lighted
attic. The chimney provides fues for
all rooms, and by arching them togeth-
er over stairs they are brought through
the roof in one top, saving expense.
Two pleasant rooms are furnished in
the attic There is 10 cellar, but for
$3.50 additional one could be built I'M
der that portion of the house reached
by stairs opening from the large
kitchen closet. This plan, with slight
notifications, would make servicea-
BILE and cheap suburban cottage.
The second house shown is also well
planned for the money. It's cost is
$4,000. The foundation is stone and
brick, the first story clapboarding.
The special features of this house are

The arrangement of kitchen gives
direct access therefrom to cellar, and
q means of communication 10 any part
of the house, without entering adioin-
ing rooms. There is no direct connec-
ton between lie dining-room and the
kitchen, the passage being through the
pantry BY this arrangement the odors
of cooking are shut off from the dining
room and other parts of the house. The
fireplaces in parlor, dining-room and
kitchen are arranged in sach a manner
as to bring the fues together in the
attic, thus making only one top, and
saving considerable expense. There
is ample closet-roonl, the pantry is
convenient to both dining-room and
kitchen, the dining-room closet is con-
structed to contain china, and to make
the parlor symmetrical in shape. There
is ample storage-room in the attic.
The bathroom il convenient to all the
other rooms, and being over the
kitchen makes the plumbing simple
and economical. The first and second
stories are plastered. Cellar under the
whole house. This plan can be modi-
fled to suit any special requirements.

That is no way for an American Duchess
to be welcomed in her own house. 1t is an
indignity to our flag. When one buys a
ducal coronet she does not wish to be
welted over the head with it. She does not
care to be greeted with GOODNESS in her own

Widow MaiOney'S Pig.

Mike Murphy was taken to task by
his spiritual adviser for having stolen
Widow Maloney's pig. The evidence
against Mike was so direct and positive,
that it was worse than useless for him
to deny the crime, and he listened with
downcast eyes and much meekness to
a well-deserved lecture from the priest
upon the wickedness of the theft he
had committed, till the reverend gem
tlemen asked him what he would say
in the Day of Judgment when he
should be confronted by Mrs. Maloney
and her pig, when he frightened up at
q happy thought, and said;

Barnum Taken In by q Woman.

P. T. Barnum, the veteran show
man, lately appeared as complainant.
in New York police court against 8
female swindler, who gave the name
of Maggie Morgan.
Mr.. Barnum was accosted by the
woman on Thirty-seventh street. She
asked the way to No. 153 West One
Hundred and Forty-siyth street and
was told it was miles vway. Il must
walk there all the same" said she, ito
tell my sister that my husband broke
his leg and is in the hospital" "You
never can walk there" said Mr.. Bar
nun, and he gave her a handful of
change. The woman said: God bless
you sir, and may you never break your
leg" and walked away. MIR. Barnum
related the circumstance at his hotel
and was laughed at by his friends.
Two weeks later he was accosted by
the same woman near the Murray Hill
Hotel. Sir" said she, will you tell
me- where the Coroner's Office is? My
husband is dead and must carry word
there" Mr.. Barnum recognized her
and caused her arrest.
He told the story to the police JUS
tice, and while they were heartily
laughing over the joke the woman
broke out with, "Nlr. Barnum, if you
won't make complaint against me I'll
go with your circus for nothing and
show myself as the only woman you
ever had arrested"
This produced the desired effect, and
Mr.. Barnum agreed to take the woman
at her word. She was thereupon dis.
charged.-Neac York Times.

accompanied by such an example?
Now, I haven't a word to say against
high temper; it is an excellent thing
to have. "What!" I hear you ex-
claim, in unfeigned establishment,
while the "bad boy" who had been
stamping with rage, stops his crying
and looks round-eyed with wonder,
the big tears still clinging to his
lashes and coursing down his plump,
rosy cheeks, as he turns his head to
see what I can mean by such an III.
orthodox statement.
But repeat it; good, high temper
is IAN excellent thing to have" SO is
a fast blooded horse, if he does not
run away with you. To this end you
must know how to govern him. He
must be conquered, first of all; not
"broken," but made subject to gov
eminent in kind, firm, judicious way.
The horse-trainer would not think of
breaking your colts leg because the
inexperienced, spirited young animal
reared, and kicked, and plunged, and
tried to run away when first he found
himself with rattling set of wheels
fastened just behind him, which kept
running after him in spite of all that
he could do to prevent it.
Nor would you advise the breaking
of a limb, even though it might be set
and splinted. and become useful again
in due course of time. Why, then,
break your child's temper? Do you
not know that this very high-strung
spirit is what will, by and by, give
him vim, force, and energy in his life
work. whatever that may be, and
meantime will conducs to his becom-
ing manly, self-reliant, and indus
trious.
Don't knock, shake or beat the tenn
per out of the lad, lest you make him
good-for-nothing, lazy and shiftless; or,
should you fail in your attempt, vicious,
brutal and ne'er-do-well. Patiently,
lovingly and gently teach him to
govern himself, invoking the Great
Trainers aid, and thus bind him to
your heart forever, while laying the
of character of which you
justly may be proud.
Nothing pays better, nothing yields
surer, steadier compound interest than
wise and tolerant treatment of the
young. Nothing tells more powerfully
on the lines and characters of your
children than the example set by your
own ife-especially at home and in
your business relations. Therefore.
if you would reap rich and
speedy reward, look carefully to your
words and ways-aye, and to the mo-
lives back of them. The parent is the
child's first book; and oftea it is read |
through and through More father and
mother deem the letters learned.
You cannot begin too early; begin
now. Strive to give the unborn an in
neritance which shall make their future
ask and yours the easier; and do your
best to redeem lost time with the elder
members of your little flock, and rem
sdy that which it is too late to pre-
rent.
Do You say that you lack wisdom?
Then seek of Him who has promised
% give "iberally" and without sup
so that when these years of
'arthly pupilage are ended, you and
our children may both safely be gath
red into the blessed home of "Our
fathers house on high"
