In An English Bedroom.

Bedrooms are not usually nearly so
comfortably furnished in England as
are ours, says The Ladies Home
Journal. 1t is quite unusual to have
a fire in ones bedroom. and the rock
ing chair. that comfortable Solace of
every American womanS life,iS con
Spicuous by its absence. 1t is not Gus
tomary either to have gas III the bed
rooms. There is an idea that it is I'M
wholesome. and candles are still almost
universally used, except on the parlor
and dining room floors. | have some
times thought that the poor lighting
Of the bed and dressing of the
English homes, had much to do in con
trADuting to the dowdy and unStylish
dressing OF the women, the majority
OF whom always have their skirts a
little bit crooked, or the pettlcoat
showing unevenly on one side or the
other. In furnishing bedroom the
dressing table used instead of our
bureaus-is always put against win
dow 81 as to catch all the light possible.
This looks odd both in the room and
from the outside of the house. \ GU

Where They Belong.

\ recent number of the New York
Daily Sun contained this editorial con-
corning our 'whale-backS:"
Much pubic interest IN Europe and
America has been excited by the sue
cessful voyage Of the new whalebac
steamer Charles w Wetmore from the
head of Lake Superior to Liverpool and
from Liverpool back to this city. 1t is
believed that this trip has demonstrate
ed the practicability of sending grain
direct from the head of lake navigation
to the great European markets more
cheaply and speedily than by any of
the old routes; and many persons inter
ested III the grain trade confidently
predict great changes which will be of
immence advantage to the lake region
III consequence of the Introduction of
the new whale backs.
These steamers have been described
and pictured by many journals, and in
very large number of the published
accounts they are spoken of as coming
from Duluth. The fact is Superior is
their domicile of origin, and the peo
PIE of Superior are not altogether
pleased to see aheir greatest achieve
ment attributed to rival town.
ASwe understand the facts, an effort
was made in Duluth to establish the
ship building industry there on n large
scale, but the enterprise did not prove
successful. 1t is true that a few whale
backs We're built in that city, but at
the present time Superior is the head
quarters for the construction of these
vessels. The Charles W. Wetmore was
! built at Superior, and the extensive
plant necessary for building whale
backs on 4 large scale is at Superior
ana not at Duluth.
1t may not be generally known to
eastern readers that there is rivalry
between Duluth and Superior as in
tense as that which has existed for so
many years between Minneapolis and
st. Paul. In view of this fact. it is
only fair that each should enjoy in the
outside world the credit which it de-
/ serves, and not appropriate honors
which belong to its rival.
I The title of Superior to be consider
| ed the home of the whale. back seems
clearly stronger than the claim of the
| Zenith City of the Unsalted Seas.

Wages AMI the Cos; OF L:V:ng.

Few points are insisted on with
greater pertinacity or with more en-
phaSiS bv British writers in referring
to our higher wages, than that the eX-
pense of living is much greater here
than in England, altboe all who know
enough about the subject to be more
than mere repeaters of other mems as
sertions know that except i'll the mat
ter of rent and wages the cost of liv
ing with such comforts and luxuries
as wage earnerS command in this coun-
try is substantially the same as in
other countries, and that it is only
where persons of families are in such
position that they require two or
more servants that a marked economy
results from living in England. The
economy of living on the Continent of
Europe, however, commences sooner.
This question of economical living was
