SENSIBLE SENTIMENTS.
Simplicity In Furnishing and Decora-
tion Should Prevail.

If only people could be guided into
simple habits and ideas as regards So
called comforts and ornaments. we
should not only be more likely to de-
velop nobler art, says the British Agchi-
tcct, but also to secure less of toll and
trouble in the care and keeping of the
useless gimcrackery with which the
homes of all, from noble dukes to we'll
to-do tradespeople, at present abound.
AS rule, it may be safely admitted that
rooms are too much furnished and that
the doors, windows, fireplace, floor,
walls and ceiling have too little compe-
tent care bestowed upon them. We're the
constructive features Of a room properly
looked after much furniture and uphol-
Stery would be as needless as it is troub-
lesome to keep in order and move about.
And this brings up another important
point in house furnishing too often for
gotten-the question Of dust. Dwellers
in town are particularly subject to this
all-pervadlng evil, an evil arising not
altogether from without.
Houses are more or less vibratory, es-
pecially where there is heavy street OF
tram traffic in the vicinity, and we have
not yet cleared our stock of smoky fiues.
So that in addition to paying particular
attention TO the fitting of doors and win
dows, we would urge the selection OF
only so much furniture as may be easily
ground as to leave at least nine inches
clear space underneath. Avoid useless
side-tables and cabinets. which are sc
often dragged in for no other purpose in
the world but TO carry ''art emporium
rubbish.
Remember that all furniture beyond
what is really necessary for comfort and
convenience only provides so many more
traps wherewith to catch the dust. Avoid
all woolen or fluffy material in such up-
holstery as it may be deemed necessary
TO have. These two or three simple hints
can be acted upon by nearly everybody.
To those whose means admit of it we
would suggest the use of thin parduet
over old floors: upon such a floor only
one or two rugs in lieu of the usual car
pet would be needed, which should be Of
a close, hard texture. Then we would
substitute the grand or semi-grand piano
for the dust-attracting cottage instrument
where possible. and abolish, forever, the
hideous practice of covering our furni-
ture with all kind of drapery and "trip
perry.

A Serions Obiection.

A German peasant family had made all
their arrangements to emigrate to the
United States. The day before the family
was to take its departure the eldest son,
Hans, who was an enormous eater, init
mated that he did not care to go West.
Has some village maiden beguiled
thee to remain behind?" asked the father.
Nothing of the kind"
'Why, then, dust thou not wish to go
with us?''
"rve been talking with the school
master, and
well, what did he say?"
"He says that when it is IL O'Clock with
us here in Germany that"
THAT what?''
when it is II o'clock here with us
that in America it is o'clock in the
evening""
"Well?"

have to wait that long for my dinner"
and the poor fellow completely broke
down at the mere thought of it.-Texas
