The Story of New York House.

There is II certain house on Sixth aveuue
which turns its gloomy brownstone aide to
the roar and the rattle of the elevated
trains which thunder by. 1t is high, like
all New York houses, but a low extension
juts out in the rear and n few feet back of
that n sickiy, stunted tree rises scarcely to
its level. Tbs New Yorker who is whirIed
past the house twice each working day
never notices it exc pt ut those times when
he is plotting some out of town guest. On
such occasions az he leaves the station
ut Twenty-third street bound down town
no begins TO peer out to the left,
and presently he says: ".See that
house there; the one with the extension?
That's where Broker Hatch met his death.
Nou remember reading about it in the
papers. The woman Scovllle, or Seoiield,
or whatever WAS her name. lured him in
there. and then, when caught, hs rnn out
OH the extension roof and Jumped for the
tree, missed it and fell flat on the dag
stones. Splendid family, too; / knew him

Few things live longer in the memory
than n scandal. Probably tho story of that
house will not be- forgotten until long after
1t is pulled down.

The theory of the operation is delightfully."-
simple. Catarrh, say the nose surgeons, is
usually caused by stoppage of the nasal pas
sage by ~thickening of tho membrane with
in until there is not a free channel for res
piration. Thu remedy is to cut out obsti-
nate Jumps of cartilage with an arrangement
of wire and pincers and to burn away swol-
len distractions with acid-which isn't es-
pecially painful if cocaine il used as a local
an@sthetic. The doctorsssay that not one
nose in three is even in tolerably good
shape naturally in this country, and that
the general health is always improved by
thist treatment. :
+ The ear is another organ which it ia quite
common to nave specially treated W.
adays. l Am speaking of men, and %partic-
ularly of mon who use the telephone q great
deal. There can be little doubt that the
common use of this exasperating and much
sworn at convenience has a marked ten
dency to increase deafness. 1t is noted in
most cases which come to the specialists for
treatment that the ear which is most used
Mt the telephone receiver is in the worst
condition.
There 10 no doubt that men and women
live longer and enjoy, on the whole, better
health than ever before, but they certainly
do have n lot of trouble with their noses,
teeth. ears, eyes and dipestions.

The Base Ball Season.

the public interest has unquestionably re-
vived and the knowing ones are now look

all its grating inconsistency it comes alike
from the novels of illiteracy and the gilded

balmy Texas atmosphere has become so ut
terly laden with its ''awful'' melody that
the word has literally grown awful indeed
The following is sent as sample of the
exaggerated and erroneous use of the word
awful. do not think there is single in

then a thin layer of crumbs, and SO on until
the dish is full. Let the top layer be Of
crumbs, little thicker than the rest, with
pieces of butter over the top. Bake half an

Cracker cruIlers.-Split common white
crackers. Prepare a bowl of cold water
with trihe OF salt dissolved 1t II. Soak the
divided crackers, one or two at time in
the cold water, while the spider is heating
on the stove and small lump of butter
melting within it. When the crackers are
partly swollen and tender throughout. drain
them quickly from the cold water and lay
them in the spider, there to sputter and
brown on both sides. Serve neatly piled on
a hot plate, and add more butter while eat
ing, if desired.
Beefsteak bones need never be thrown
away, as they will make an excellent soup.
Crack the bones in pieces and put them in
a closely-covered saucepan with just enough
water to cover them; let them simmer
slowly q couple of hours, then add two
sliced potatoes. two carrots chopped fine
and one sliced onion. If you want tomato
soup add half dozen tomatoes peeled and
sliced, or tapioca or vermiceli. Add as
much water as you will need for the guam
tity of soup desired, boil for two hours, re-
move the bones, season and serve.

An English Bride In PHILADELPHIA.

By the by, will tell you funny story
When the English cricket team came here
you will remember they had charming little
bride with them, the only lady of the party,
Mrs. Key. New York painted itself q bril-
liani carmine in honor of its English visi-
tors upon their arrival, and then they went
over to PHILADELPHIA There was supposed
to be a committee of reception. and the
dainty little bride was approached one even
ing at the hotel by two elderly women who
had been detailed to make it pleasant for
Mrs. Key. The only remarks they made to
this most charming of English women tit
mas just at that time when we all felt as if
we were living in Hades) were these: One
of the women cleverly inquired: do you
enjoy our warm weather." Now, fancy an
English woman enjoying our warm weather.
Why, we We're not patriotic enough our
selves even to enjoy it. The little bride re
marked with some sadness: "Well it is n
little different from our " Then the other
member of the committee sailed in, and
made her inquiry: Have you been TO Wa
namaker'sl" she asked. And the English
woman. not knowing whether Wanamaker's
was a circus, or private gentleman, or Il
two-headed nightingale said: Il don't know
Mr.. Wanamaker. l have not been to any
place in Philadelphia yet. l only came last
evening" We can talk all we want about
Americsn hospitality. but isn't this asking
the English TO waste themselves!

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

To have blue hydrangeas water the plant
with alum water, especially after the flower
buds appear.
To raise the pile on velvet cover a hot
iron with wet cloth and hold the velvet
over it. Brush the velvet quickly while
damp.
Unframed engravings tackled on the walls
at three corners, delicately covering up the
fourth corner, are supposed to give room
a very artistic" air.
Flower curtains are used for bridal pairs
to stand before while receiving congratula-
lions. They are of some dull neutral tint,
upon which flowers are thickly strewn.
There is decided tendency shown to re-
turn to the higher and more massive type
of table decorations, instead OF the low,
fiat style which has been so long in favor.
To clarity the fat that has been used in
frying doughnuts, melt it by mixing it with
hot water. All the impurities will settle to
the bottom, and when all is cold the hard
ened fat can easily be separated This pro-
cess is not necessary until the fat becomes
quite brown in color.
A dainty way to prepare it for the celery
boat is to curl the ends. Select firm, white
celery. Trim on the green tops, separate
the head into pieces and with large truss
ing needle fringe the upper part of each
strip two inches or more. Lay them in ice
cold water for half an hour or more before
the time of serving and they viii be curled
and crisp and make dainty appearance on
the celery boat.

HOUSEHOLD.

Home-making ought to be by slow pro-
cesses. The house beauti full from the
hands of artists and upholsterers can never
be the home complete. As in other things
essentials must be there, but the adornings,
the touch of femininity pervading, must be
growth. Neither is it desirable to have
this otherwise. The home proper needs the
stamp of personality from kitchen to garnet.
1t is matter of question if the young wife
is not defrauded of large share of pleasure
when the devoted lover in his generous de-
votion furnishes the house preparatory to
the home making. How often is it that
money is spent upon articles that shock her
taste and yet must be used because too
costly to be discarded; tben too there is ex-
quisite pleasure to woman in purchasing
household articles. To most men a table
is only table, but to woman the select
ing of one opens a wide field and its selec-
ton often decides the purchase of chair,
then a footstool, picture or an ornament.
Thus the home furnishing is renewing
source of pleasant occupation, and prevents
eunui in the little bride who has come from
her mother with an ample trousseau. Then
as the home building goes on each article
contributing to comfort or happiness has its
associations, and the home instead of being
a monument to the skill of outsiders is a
daily reminder of pleasant pilgrimages and
well-earned comforts.
