think not, or more rooms, which have
little in them to make them bright,
would present a gayer appearance; and
the long, empty looking hospital wards
would always hold something lovely to
interest the weary eyes of the patients.
A flower is such perfect thing for a
gift, for what else is SO appropriate a
symbol of the affection we feel for each
other? The artistically arranged bouquet,
fringed with real lace, and tied up with
tho broadest of ribbons; the brocaded
bags and plush cornucopias, luxuriously
filled with exotics, may possibly be
medium for it; but if the receiver sees
nothing in it but what money can pur-
chase, it can hardly be "joy," whatever
loveliness it may have.

double dahlia, where crimson stock and
scarlet geranium, purple columbine and

round with large leaves of scented ger

est possible space. Such a posy is the
delight of children, while to some of us
older ones it brings pleasant memories
of quaint little rooms hung with dilnity,
where small gardens have been rifled to
fill the bowl which stands in the window

Only One Skin,

William Crawford, 90 years old, who
died recently in Chicago, was peculiarly
afflicted. lie had only one skin, which
is to say that lie had no outer skin at ALL
The veins stood out all over his body in
the plainest manner possible. From the
time he was years of age young Craw-
ford had been subject to bleeding spells,
which were liable to break out at any
time and in any part of his body. He
lost vast quantities of blood in this way,
and was afraid to take any sort of cxcr-
else for fear of starting the bleeding
afrcsh. For two weeks the young man
had been confined to his bed, being too
weak to sit up. and bleeding at the nose
having set in he soon passed away. Ply
sicians were sent for from various cities
in the cast, but they could do nothing
for him. A new skin could not be grated
on.-N1ontreal Star.

Condensed Milk,

1t is only recently that the prob
lem Of condensing milk has been solved
in satisfactory manner. In the be-
ginning of the century Frenchman
named Oppert conceived the idea of SUBJ
jecting cows milk to certain treatment
by which its natural properties could be
preserved for long time and which
would render the milk capable of being
transported over long distances. Num-
erous attempts were made by all nations
to carry out this idea. The evaporation of
the milk at temperature below 100 degs
c., the evaporation in vacuum, and the
addition of 80 to 40 per cent. of cane
sugar to the milk to be condensed, were
applied separately and collectively until
finally an American succeeded in max
ing his experiments of practical value,
and condensed milk was soon placed
upon the market.-Boston Globe.

Francis Nautet, the Belgian, who I'M
dertook to travel from Brussels to Paris
in conveyance drawn by a couple of
handsome dogs, was passing through
Louvroll, a small country town in the
department du Nord, when the mayor,
on the strength of the Grammont law
against cruelty to animals, forbade him
to proceed. Mr.. Nautet thereupon had
recourse to II capital expedient for over
coming the mayors scruples. He packed
his dogs into the cart and dragged the
conveyance through the town himself.
When he had got clear of the boundary
of the township, the Belgian exchanged
places with the dogs. and completed his

Mr.. Maloney, salesman: You would be
surprised to know the extent of the craze

we first introduced them there was a
prejudice against them, the good house.
wives urging as an objection that extra
servants would have to be employed to
keep the bedsteads FURNISHED. This OBJ
lection, however, had nothing in it. A
brass bedstead requires no more atten-
tion than is bestowed upon any nice
piece of furniture. There are only three
manufactures i'll the United States. One
is here in Chicago and two are in New
York. The one in Chicago was q failure
at the start, and, if remember correct
ly, came near going to the wall. be-
lieve it revived when it removed to Pull
man, and now it is doing its share of
business. The brass bcdstead, as you are
probably aware, is English. Many are
discarding their old bedsteads for brass
ones, while those who are furnishing
houses anew or for the first time pur-
chase the brass bedsteads. They are not
as expensive as you might imagine You
can get a handsome one for from $50 to
S75, and that's what you would pay for
a well finished wooden bedstead.-
