Novelties In Furniture.

Novelties in dressing tables have an
ingenious arrangement of mirrors.
The main glass is thanked by two
hinged wings which fold after the
manner of the Psyche glasses so much
II use. The best of them are made in
Pollard oak with beveled French plate
mirrors.
Some of the prettiest English dress
ing tables are made of curly walnut, a
drab wood with little curls in the
grain resembling the grain of birds
eye maple. A large dressing table OF
white maple mounted with brass
costs $50 upward. This white maple
is n beautiful wood for bedroom sets.
The newest library tables are mas
sive affairs of oak and mahogany
They are carved in the kidney form
popularity attributed to C~hippendale,
but in reality a Sheraton shape.
There is a succession of drawers on
either side of the table. and it is sup
ported on short spindle legs beneath
the drawers.
The old fashioned four-poster bed
steads offer such a~llurements to the
decorator that they are largely
sought. Sets of carved mahogany
posts are so scarce that they are being
reproduced. Some of the new sets of
u%nstained mahogany have tall, four
posted bedsteads. Single antique
posts in carved mahogany are success
fully utilized for hall trees, being sup
piled with brass or mahogany pegs.
Hall trees are much used in bed
rooms for receiving the clothing laid

insanity in the case. The law does
not presume insanity in cases
Of crime. On the contrary it assumes
responsibility and insanity must be
afRrmatively proven. The question
Of H~allinger's insanity simply resolves
itself into this.-Must the law regard
as an evidence of insanity an act
which itself contemplates as possible,
and for which it makes special pro-
visiong
This then is substantially the sec
ond point on which the court must
rule. Anyone can decide for him
self just what the hope for Hallinger
is on such issues. still we are OF
opinion that such doubts had better
be settled by the properly consti-
tuted tribunals than totally disre-
garded or summarily settled by the
strong hand. A little delay in the
hanging Of a man is a small matter
where there are principles involved.

Contractor John Nolan was befole
Police Justice O'Donnellth his morning for
tearing up several blocks Of paving
stones south of Fifteenth street, leaving
the stone In the street and failing to dis
play a necessary number Of red lights as
danger signals at night.
Mr.. Nolan admiJteai to the Court that
it would be several weeks before he could
repave the portion torn up, owing to a
lack of material at hand. but said the
stones could be removed inside of two
days, and that he mad several carts at
work removing them as rapidly rs possible.
As TO the displaying Of red lights be had
plenty of lanterns, and had given instruc-
tons to his men TO place them at required
places. Perhaps they had not carried out
his instructions.
Justice O'Donnell said he did not wish
to be severe on contractors aud business
men, but ordinances should not be
violated. He paroled Mr.. Nolan so far as
the danger signals were concerned. As
to the matter of tearing up several blocks
of stones at a time aud leaving them in
the streets, tire Justice said he would COLI

Any householder, whose happiness
it is to pay for the supplies of a family,
must be aware of the extreme diff
Guilty of getting. with any certainty, a
steadily good article of almost any
sort. 1t is easier in the case of luxu-
ries, for the reason that for these the
demand is more limited, the number
of purchasers smaller. the number of
producers correspondingly small, and
the chance of tracking bad work or
untruthful statements greater. But
for the things which every N must
have, and which most must have as
cheap as may be, buying is a lottery,
with a miserable prevalence OF blanks.
You can get virtuous butter for a dol
lar a pound, but the search for eatable
butter at forty cents a pound is a
weary and depressing pursuit. 1t is
the same with the innumerable ar
ticles of clothing and materials of
clothing. From the hat that grows
gray in a months service, to the shoe
sole that will not stand a days's
rough tramping, the things that are
turned out in large quantities for 1.-The
Million are not trustworthy.
/ think the chief reason is that in
our complex and widely ramified sys-
tenn of exchanges the producer and
the consumer rarely come into direct
relation with each other; the former
rarely knows, and still more rarely
cares, for the opinion the latter may
have of him, OF mis- methods, his char
acter, and his goods. The seller deals
| today with one set of buyers, tomor-
row with another, and SC on, and the
buyers change their places of pur-
chase with the greatest frequency.
The relation indicated by the old
fashioned words custom and ems
toner is dying out, and with it the
possibility OF accountability, and the
1 hope OF profitable honesty. The type
of modern retail dealing is that most
abominable device the bargain
counter" where cheapness. real OF
imagined. is the main thing consid-
ered.-JuLU Sc7ibn6r.

About Your summer Gown.

You are going to make your cotton
gown. Now, before you do this, says
the Ladies' Home Journal. see if you
cannot have its decoration in its de-
sign, and use as little trimming as
possible. The quantity Of embrotd-
cry that was at II time considered
in good taste on these gowns is no
longer in vogue. Whatever decora-
zion you may use, have upon the
bodice. A guimpe of Irish lace. rib
bon collars and cuffs, fanciful girdles:
or waistcoats OF silk or embroidery, OF
pique or linen, are all in good taste;
but an elaborate skirt trimming is un-
desirable. Your cotton gown wants
to express the sweetness of simplicity,
and it also ought to tell of its ex-
IRENE comfort, a something that is
never limited at in an overturned or
too deliberately made one. Too much
decoration, like too many words. is
quite as often an evidence, not only
OF lack of sense, but of lack of brain.

To talk of guarding against cold in

changeable, a hot day is often fol-
lowed by a cool evening, Or a sudden
rain storm chilis the air, or a cold
wind springs up, grateful after the
heat, but dangerous to those who are
thinly clad unless they are protected
from it by proper covering. Cotton
