A $500 COUNTRY HOUSE.


An Elegant Home That Cannot Fall -
Please.
This design is that Of a residence built in
the suburbs of New York, for a family Of
means The building stands on an eminence,
with the ground sloping from the house in al
directions, which, with the broken gables,
broad veranda and porch, judicious ar
rangement Of the windows, etc, give very
attractive and picturesque appearance to the
building-quite in contrast to the old fash
toned mansard and hip roofs SO common in the
rural districts. The plan is a convenient
one, and comprises hall, dining room and
large library, separated from the front parlor
by sliding doors, which can be kept open and
closed at pleasure. At the rear of tho house
are the kitchen, back stairs, pantry, store
room, and back porch, with steps leading to
the be tx yard. In front is a broad veranda
with stems

Maine's Paper Industry.

Maine Is one Of the greatest paper pro
duciDg States In this country. Portland
Is but five miles distant from the largest
paper mills In the world--those at Cum
berland Mills. Scattered about on
Names principal rivers are mills which
iurn out many tons of paper 10 the course
of year and Maine, New Hampshire
and greater part of Vermont are sup
piled with the products of these mills
Portland Is the centre, or distributing
point of the paper trade in the section OF
the country named above. Nearly all the
mills mentioned above have agencies H.
Portland, aud the amount OF trade don,
In year is very large.
The Warren mills, at Westbrook, do a
business of nearly five million dollars a
year. The most Of their produc. is book
paper, and the great magazines Of this
country obtain their supply here. The
mill At Mechanic Falls, Gardiner and Po-
land have agencies In Portland, and from
that city seven eighths Of the newspapers
of Maiue obtain their supply. Portland
dealers can supply the states Of Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont with paper
at the same, aud, In most instances, low
er rates than can Boston jobbers, for the
very reason that the saving In freight il
enormous. Portland being nearer the
place where the paper is made has grea,
advantage which the consumers appreci.
ate. Boston and New York concerns
have struggled hard TO capture a good
slice of the paper trade of Maine but can
not compete successfully with Portland
houses
The amount OF manila paper produced
In Maine IS great deal aud what Is bet

Cream strawberries are the newest and
sweetest things in the candy market.
The luscious red berry is first dipped in
cold water and then plunged intoa cream
bath of rose, lemon, vanilla, orange or
pistache flavor, the stem and little green
leaf remaining. When dry the fruit bon
bon is put into little cap or bonnet Of
fiuted paper and offered at the modest
rate of 81 per pound. Another innova-
ton of sweetness is the chocolate candle,
a beautiful brown stick, three inches
long, with Il tuft of hard silk to represent
the wick. Set in papier mache candle
stick of white, pink or blue the confec-
ton is at once table ornament, favor
and n delicious morsel Of dessert. There
are chickens, eggs, pipes and tenpins Of
sweet chocolate that sell at ten cents
each, and dainty little garden baskets of
willow and grass filled with chocolate
pastilles, fr1lled with lace paper and the
cover tied down with q ribbon or wisp
of straw. Judging from the display of
sweetmeats and the various designs that
are coming into the Broadway, Madison

CELLAR

The architect OF this house did not like the
sliding doors placed between the parlor and
the library. II it were his house, hinged
door, would be placed between these rooms,
like those between hall and library. In this
way the library would be n quiet place.
With sliding doors sound could be readily
communicated from parlor to library. How
ever, the people who build this house want
sliding doors.
The room marked "parlor" on this plan is
essentially a sitting room as used by its own
ers The reception hall is used as such. There
is vestibule before entering it, so there 10
no occasion for placing hat rack in the ha II

A Strange Confession

Isaac b. Sawtelle who is held for trial
In New Hampshire for the murder OF his
brother, Hiram, makes statement to his
counsel, Henry Trickey, to the effect
that DR. Blood and an ex-convict called
Jack committed the crime and That 1t was
done In Maine. He confesses that he was
a party to conspiracy to extort from his
brother his signature to an Instrument
for the conveyance Of certain family real
estate that he claimed to be the rightful
owner Of, that lie bought the spade, AK
and certain other articles and conveyed
him to a camp in an out of the way spot
in Lebanon, Maine, where he left him to
the tender mercies of the ex convicts
DIR. Blood and Jack who were to
brighten him into the signing OF the de-
sired papers. lie also states that he
thinks his brother Hiram was suspicious
of foul play and made break for free
dom and was killed BY Blood and Jack In
the act of restrsnlpg him. The story IL
an ingenious one. He would much rath-
er be party to conspiracy to felon-
Gus assault resulting in the death OF his
brother than to be the principal, and ne
perfers that 1t appear that the crime was
committed In Maine rather than In New
HAMPSHIRE where murder is punished by
hanging.
