The Settlers Log Cabin.

The floor was of puncheons split from
oak logs and laid loosely on rough-hewn
joists. These ratified as the visitors
walked over them. At one end of the
cabin a huge fireplace of stone laid in
clay yawned for the future comfort of
the C ming tenants. Nearby a rude set
of shelves suggested a pantry, and a
table, homemade and equally rude,
stood in the middle Of the floor. In one
corner was built bedstead, two sides
of the house furnishing two sides of the
work, and the other two being made by
driving stake into the floor and con-
Meeting that by string-pieces to the sides
of the cabin. Thongs of buffalo hide
formed the bottom Of this novel bed
stead. A few stools and short benches
were scattered about. Near the fire.
place long and strong pegs driven into
the logs served as ladder on which one
could climb to the low loft overhead,
Two windows, each of twelve small
panes of glass, let in the light, one from
the end of the cabin and one from the
back opposite the door, which was in
the middle Of the front. Outside, frail
shanty of shakes leaned against the
cabin, affording sort of outdoor
Kitchen for summer use. e.--Noah Brooks

The pulp from which the juice has
been pressed can be mixed with equal
or larger quantities of apples sauce and
cooked down to form excellent ounce
and apple butter. Sweeten the mixture
to taste, add little cinnamon and stir
carefully while cooking, as it is prone
to stick fast unless carefully watched.
In cool weather the sauce can be kept
some time without sealing, but if large
quantity is made it is well to put the
most of it in self-sealing bottles or cans.
Christian Inquirer.
Shirley Dare says there is nothing
like steam for keeping the complexion
fresh and free from wrinkles. Dust
easily settles in the pores of the skin
and can only be dislodged by the daily
use of hot water or steam and soap.
The woman who frequently INDUCES in
a hot bath and allows her skin to be-
come softened by hot water is sure to
retain her good looks longer than one
who is careless in this respect. Dust
from furnace-pipes is a deadly enemy
of fresh complexion and fine hair.
Bean Soup.-Take two pounds OF
navy beans, soak them over night in
water enough to cover them and half a
teaspoonful of soda. Drain off the wa
ter and set them to boil in with one
half gallon of water, and about one
pound of pork and beef bone. Let
boil until the beans are tender then
add one-half dozen potatoes cut in
pieces, and salt and pepper to taste.
Boil twenty minutes longer, and then
add thickening Of one tablespoonful
of butter rubbed into one tablespoonful
of flour. Boil another twenty minutes,
or until the potatoes are done.

CASTING BRONZE STATUES.
A Difficult Process That Involves Much
Time and Expense.

Difficult Process That Involves Much
Time and Expense.
The usual method Of casting bronze
statues is to take from the sculptors
clay model a mold of plaster. When
this is hard the clay is cleaned out and
plaster poured In its place. When the
molds are removed a plaster cast cor.
responding to the clay model is left.
About the plaster cast new mold is
formed, this one of fine sand, tamped
hard. The mold is removed from the
plaster, and in place Of the latter is in
serted sand core, not quite so large as
the plaster, so that when the molten
bronze is poured in it can run only be-
tween the surface Of the mold and the
core, thus making the statue hollow.
For delicate work the objection to
this process is that by expansion and
contraction Of the plaster molds and
casts, and by the unequal pressure by
the tamping Of the sand, the metal fig
ure is apt to vary somewhat from the
model. AS the bronze can not be alter
ed, the sculptor must be contend to see
his idea interpreted in the metal with
some alterations Of proportions.
1t is to avoid this variation that the
wax process Of molding is used. After
plaster cast has been made the sur
face of the latter is scraped off TO a
depth of half an inch or more tits
then placed in the mold, which It no
longer fills, and melted wax is poured
into the vacant space. On taking off
the mold the statue is found TO be re-
newed, but with n surface Of wax. The
artist is then called in, and by working
upon the wax he can remedy any defects
which may have been caused; molding,
adding or changing at will till the sur
face is as delicate and perfect as his art
can make IL.
When the sculptor has finished with
1t the statue Is turned over TO women,
who, with very small brushes, cover
the wax with fine dust or powder Of
special composition, This dust adheres
TO the wax, and as soon as one coat has
been put on another is given TO H.
This process Is kept up for weeks, and
as these coatings Of earthen powder are
repeated they harden, and when the
layers have been built up Til they form
q covering over the wax OF about half
an inch In thickness, the work can pro.
gress more rapidly, for utter that a
trowel can safely be used. Thus the
wax model is.safely inclosed In mass
OF hard earthen material.
The entire mold, with the figure and
wax inside, Is then placed In furnace
In which n great heat is developed, suf-
iicIent not only 10 melt the wax, but 10
burn out every trace OF II, This
leaves perfect mold In which 10 pour
the molten bronze for the final casting,
and when the latter comes out Il Is
found to be an exact duplicate In bronze
of the wax model, with every line
brought out TO u nicety, On account Of
the great labor required In covering the
wax with the powdered earth the pro.

How Both Men and Women Try to Hide
Their ges,

Their Ages.
There is more hair-dyeing going on
here by both men and women than
formerly" remarked tonsorial artist
to a New York reporter as the
latter occupied the chair.
What is the reason?"
well there are several reasons. One
of them is the craze for employing only
young men and women in business
houses. Why, if female employe
shows gray hair in dry good store on
Grand street, Fourteenth street, or
Twenty-Third street, it is equivalent to
handing in her resignation; and
the same applies to men, although they
can hold on little longer. Then
again, dyeing has been brought to per-
fection now, so it is impossible for any
one except an expert to tell the differ
ence between the artificial color and the
natural.
BARRIERS no longer manufacture their
own dyes. They buy it from wholesale
druggists, and we sell lot of it to men
who take it home and use it themselves.
Sometimes man is ashamed to ac-
knowledge that he dyes, so he buys
the stuff in drug store and his wife
fixes it when he comes home. No man
or woman can make good job of it
that way, for you see the same atten-
ton can not be paid to the roots of the
hair as when the dye is applied by a
regular barber
Modern hair-dyeing has been re-
duced to an art. Some years ago min
eral dyes, which were destructive to the
hair, and which never gave natural
color, were freely used, They were
well enough for stage purposes, but
would not bear close inspection, Silver
salts and lead preparations were their
basis, and lead poisoning has been
traced to their use. The dyes used at
present are purely vegetable, and will
initiate the natural color of the hair"
SIS it hurtful to dye the hair?"
Certainly. Never dye your hair if
you can avoid it. 1t dries up the hair
and scalp and has tendency to bring
on badness. To avoid this, as far as
possible, we use very weak dye on the
head. 1t is known to the profession as
'coloring fluid The hair of the head
takes the dye very readily, but the mus
tache does not, for which much more
powerful preparation has to be used.
The hair of the ordinary mustache, eX-
cept when man has never shaved, is
coarse and absorbent, and being
more exposed than the hair of the head
will bleach rapidly unless the greatest
care is taken in dyeing it.
Some people, but men more especi-
ally, have to dye their hair quite early
in life. All shades of blonde hair pre-
serve their color the longest, but black
hair becomes gray at a comparatively
early age. On the other hand, blonde
hair is apt to grow very fine and thin,
and makes man a genuine bald head be-
fore he is 40. Sickness frequently turns
the hair gray or causes it to fall out.
The gray heads can be fixed up all right
and the appearance of age completely
taken away from young man, but for
the bald we can do nothing. Be-
fore the bald head the barbr stand pow

comfortable motto, "It I cannot see you,

becomes great nuisance in the churches

sition before the chamber to charge an ad-
mission to the museum and palaces A

Beggars That Are Licensed.
There are four classes licensed BY the CITY.
The 'four beggars" they are called-the
mountebanks, the organ-grinders, the
singers and the travelling musicians. ONLY
q limited number of permissions are given
and those receiving them keep to a certain
quarter. The sign of the license is a little
medal which the possessor must have always
at hand, cannot lend, and must renew every
three months. They are forbidden to take
with them children under six years of age,
but there is not day that man or woman

y ears of age does not sing under any win

Fresh Grapes All Winter.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.I
Fresh grapes can be had all through the
winter at trihing expenditure of care and
attention. The grapes should be cut when
just ripe, with several inches of stem on
each bunch, and then be placed in paper
boxes, with layer of crumpled newspaper
underneath and another above them. The
punches should not touch and the grapes
should not be piled in the box. Keep them
in cool, dry room-not in the cellar, the
dampness there is sure to spoil them-and
with care to prevent their freezing they
will be as eatable in February as in
October
