the boy went back happy, but, Of course, the
penny proved no open sesame, and back the
boy came with the remark. Say, pa, you
are guying me. want white penny. this
yellow one Is no good" The boy had had a
hard time working ut the box after he had
lost his penny and evidently was tired OF the
novelty. When hs got back TO his mother
she asked II his papa had given him the right
kind Of dime, and he answered. Yep,
whereupon the mother asked him why he did
not put IL la the slot and get the glass. Don't

Mr.. Thomas A. Janvier tells some things
about the Mexican army In Harper's which
will seem extremely odd to Americans, but
especially so 10 those interested IN military
aifairS Many Of the recruits are conyiits
who have been drafted into the military ser

IA rather humorous ingenuity Is shown in
slipping out OF military bondage. In Mon

than a score OF men belonging TO regiment

for tho arrival Of the president, succecdled in

caps ON the butts Of their musksts, the bay

order TO march was given, and the regiment
marched away and left the cap bearing mus
kets standing scattered over tho ground, that
the trick was discovered by the officers An
other peculiar thing is that no baggage train
Ia needed by these soldiers for they carry all
that they need on their backs, even though
the wives and the children OF the private
soldier sometimes accompany them. But

ABOUT BOOKCASES.
How the hest One. Are Made and How 10
Arrange the Books.

How the best Ones Are Made and How "a
Arrange the Books.
The best bookcases are those made
half high, not those cumberous, glass
doored edifices which indicate that the
contents are made to look at, not 10 read.
Tho wood may be either hard like
cherry. ash. mahogany or black walnut,
or merely pine stained to resemble
either, according 10 the finish OF the
room. 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 ere either
rounded or finished with stripes OF
pinked leather, and the shelves them
selves can be made by an ordinary car
penter. Lot IL fill tho space between
the chimney and the end Of the room or
the entrance doorway and the side, warm
ish IL, or stain and varnish, and then
proceed 10 arrange the treasures OF many
a lifetime. DO we realize that these
best works OF good men and women are
the epitomes OF vast labor, research and
thought? Then lot us house them with
genuine tenderness.
IL Ia a good plan to have the bottom
shelf broad enough TO hold aliases and
books OF reference, like heavy cyclic
p@dias, 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 book soon goes TO ruin. That is
the reason why children should be taught
never TO pick up q book by one cover
only II taara tho eovar lnnza from tha
back. For no reason ought child to be
taken by the ear except to show 1t how
book feels-or to book lover seems TO
feel-when dragged about by single
cover.
After the books are arranged In the
case there Is left the upper shelf for q
couple of pictures on easels, with q cen
trial flower vase or bronze. But 10 dedi-
cate the space to an indiscriminate lot
of bric-a-brac is a Dissertation. Nor
should 1t BIO used for an old paper shelf;
let papers BIO relegated TO their proper
receptacles. 1t is, though, place for
current magazines and book or two
subject to daily perusal.
But the book case is not yet finished.
In front, depending from brass rod, let
us hang a curtain Of India silk, the color
OF which shall harmonize with the pre-
vailing tint OF the room. This-curtain
should be drawn only when the room Is
busted. On sweeping daya muslin cover,
kept for this purpose, Is thrown over the
top, and reaches to the floor, for our
book lovers do not tolerate dust on their
volumes. Housekeeping.
