Children anu Cold Feet.

Children should never be allowed to
go to bed with cold feet. A nurse should
have instructions always to feel the feet
of the little ones before they are put to
bed Cold feet may mean nothing, and
then again they may be the precursor Of
some serious illness. Another source OF
danger to the feeble system is the cold
sheets, which strike chill through the
body and cause great DISCOMFORT there
are not more serious consequences. In
olden times warming the beds was reg
ular part of the housemaid's duty, and
most of us have seen the covered copper
pans, with long handles, which were
filled with hot Goals and passed between
the sheets. A woman of experience tells
us that she keeps all the thick, flat bot
ties in which household ammonia comes
prepared for hot water bottles. "These
filled with boiling water, we'll corked
and passed between the sheets, warm
them as we'll as warming-p pam" she
saws, "and if the children have cold feet
quickly induce warmth if left in the bed.
The glass is so thick that there is nc
danger of breakage, and in case of pain
l have really found them valuable. -

Ancient Wax Tablets.

Wooden tablets covered with wax were
anciently used to write upon, the outer
sides being of wood, only the inner sides
being covered with wax. The two
pieces were fastened at the back with
wire as hinges and could be opened and
shut like our books. Two ancient waxen
tablets of this kind, in an excellent state
Of preservation, were found in gold
mines in and near the village of Abud-
bangs, in Pennsylvania. These tabulae
consist of three tablets each. One Is of
fir wood the other of beech wood, each
about the size of small octave. The
other parts are of plain wood; the innt
are covered with wax, now almost grow
black, and have margins. The middl
tablet, also with raised margin, is covere,
with wax on both sides. On the tablet
are some Greek letters, followed by Ger.
tain unknown characters. The other
tablet contains writing in Latin, which
refers to some business with collegium
c'body" or ''corporation'). The date,
given by Consuls, is 169 A. d. 1t is
written from right to left. the writing
beginning on the fourth page and ending
at the bottom of the third, -American

A New Decorative Plant.

A beautiful plant, splendidly adapted
forthe decoration of the drawing-room
and halls, as it stands drought and dust
with IMMUNITY, is the sanseviera. 1t is
grown extensively in Cuba and many
parts of the West and East Indies. The
leaves, as shown in the cut, grow to a
length of three to four feet, and are
beautifully striped crosswise with broad
white variegations on dark green
ground.
1t is rare and beautiful plant, which
should be abundantly grown for positions
out OF the reach of sunlight, where
other plants will not thrive. When you
consider that it may be placed in any
position in any room and do well, its
great usefulness is an once apparent. 1t
has singular beauty for decorative pur-
poses which other plants do not possess,
and it is useful both winter and sum-
mer.

from one into the other. The capital
is embellishei with beautiful public
gardens, where velvety lawns, luxuriant
flower beds-even palms and bananas
make you doubt the geographical fact
that Stockholm is situated in the same
latitude as the most southern point OF
Greenland. Numerous statues also adorn
the city, statues of the hero kings, the
kings of science Uinneus, Berzelius and
others, and of the great lawgiver, the
wise administrator, Birger, the Earl, who,
by surrounding the town with strong
walls made it, as he said, "the lock Of
the Malar," and earned thus the name
of the Founder of Stockholm.

day. Here the pleasure grounds, the
gay terraced Tivoli and the aristocratic
Hasselbacken with its military orchestra,
and the motley crowds of soldiers, civil
ians, sailors and Dalecarlians, in their
picturesque costumes, listening to
Punch and Judy, or enjoying other
popular performances, bear witness to
the pleasure-loving disposition which
seems characteristic Of the people.
One of the charms of Stockholm lies
in the fact that almost side by side with
the elegancies and improvements of civ
ilization, wild untamed nature appears,
as in this isle at the very entrance of the
city, where the only works of man are
the forfeit and the royal skating pavil-
ion. A handsome iron bridge connects
this bit of wilderness with "Skepp-
sholmen" (the island of ships, the home
of nautical instruction, of naval men,
cries, and of sturdy sailors. Unlike the
former it is bordered by trim gardens
aifording pleasant pcomenades.
Among the public buildings of Stock
holm the Royal Palace holds the first
rank in the eye of the artistic tourist.
Though situated in the very Oldest part
of the city its position on an emlnence
displays to advantage the vastness of the
ediice and the perfect symmetry of its
architecture. The National Museum, in
the Venetian renaissance style, ntains
fine collections of objects connected with
the history CT Sweden, from the stone
implements of the prehistoric ages (this
department being one of the most re-
markable of Its kind in Europe) down to
the scientific apparatus of the renowned
Berzehus. Portrait and sculpture gal
leres occupy other parts OF the same
building. The Academy of Science, the
Academy of Music, the Academy of
Fine Arts, the National Library, the
Medical University, the Modern Univer-
sity ("Hogskola"), and the imposing
buildings of the public schools, testify to
the generous care of the nation for the
culture of coming generations. The
charitable institutions are neither few in
number nor neglected by the State or pri
vate citizen. Among the churches and
| chapels, the Church of st. Nicholas may
be noted as the Oldest Q264), and the

Riddarholms Church, where no hymn Is
ever heard save the funeral dirge, and no
Grafton save the last farewell, which the
prirnate of Sweden utters over the dust
of her princes, in the peaceful resting
place of the warlike kings and the gentle
queens.
In that silent temple 5000 Wondering
banners won on bloody fields, punches OF
rusty, ponderous keys that once opened
the gates of towns and fortrcsses Tor tne
brave armies from the far North, and the
simple monuments of the great war cap
tains tell wonderous tales of other times.
The places of amusement are surprisingly
numerous, too, and well attended, and
NAV in some instances be said to be ex-
travagantly luxurious. The hotels are
comfortable and the best of them ele-
gantly equipped. The intercourse is
facilitated by means of cabs, omnibuses,
trans. ferries, tunnel for pedestrians
$50 feet in length, and two elevators In
the higher parts, not to speak OF the
telephone.
On the whole Stockholm presents a
modern appearance, as the consloei"oio
increase in its population is OF more

1890, 3,oOo-but the Getty" the

Chicago Graphic, may be thankful to

and one may say they really are SO, Tor
the Stockholmer is proud of his CITY,
and his character, gay, generous ana
genial in its best aspect, as well as the
clear and melodious intonation of his

On approaching Stockholm from the
Baltic, the steamer plies her way through
numberless islands covered VITA fragrant
fir trees and white-stemmed birches, the
favorite tree of the inhabitants. These
isles are adorned with villas or the red
painted cottages of the peasants, which
in summer serve as homes Tor weary
townsfolks.
Entering the fine harbor the rocky

they afford. The practical man: who
