willing to give her n home, and so, for a
variety of reasons, it is thought that she
may be granted liberty.
Her case is remarkable one. When just
budding into w~omanhood she was married
to lra Haviland at Ypsilanti. The couple
lived tremendously for fourteen years, and
four children were born of the union. Then
the husband died, and after n proper eason
of mourning the widow became the wife of
John Leonard, by whom she had two chill
dren. Leonard proved dissipated and cruel,
and Sarah got n divorce from him at Battle
Creek.
While prosecuting her case in court she
met Daniel Baker, n ''clairvoyant physi-
cian," and grew infatuated with him. She
had with her at the time the two children
of her second marriage and the youngest,
by her first husband. Baker declined to

one Of the prettiest parks, and this
room opens with folding door to a sunny
library. Here is the desk where she
writes all the pleasant little letters
her friends love to get, and the safe
where her MS. plays are kept. There
are three there now, which she will pro-
luce as 10 as her new theater in New
York is ready. She is resting this
season.
Her parlor is unusually large for a fat,
and is handsomely furnished in soft,
pleasing color. Over the chimney is a
novel arrangement of mandolins, guitars
and other musical instruments, and in a
corner an etagere full of curios that are
really rare. She has a wonderful parrot
in a cage that chatters like a four-year-
old girl child, and a canary sits in his
cage by a window.
On the wall hangs a life size picture
of Roland Fulford, her only child,
whose sad death at the age of twelve
has cast a shadow over his young mo
theirs life that will never lift.
In her bedroom, which is just back of
the parlor, is a fine marble bust of this
beautiful boy, and everywhere are sweet
reIllnuers OF nlln, SO tnaI ms presence
seems to pervade everything.
Annie Pixley is the happy wife of
Robert Fulford, to whose good judg-
ment and careful management much of
their financial success is due, and their
married life has been exceptionally
happy.
On the stage Annie Pixley is sprightly,
gay and apparently full and running
over with animal spirits. At home and
by nature she is serious almost to gray
ity, but always sweet and womanly. Hen
voice is low and musical. and she is quiet
in her movements and of the most re-
fined No word of slang or
scandal ever passes her lips, and much as
n must admire her on the stage she
proves ten times more lovable in her
home.
She dresses for the street with quiet
simplicity and her home gowns are mod
els of taste and neatness. She can make
and always designs her own dresses, and
Is very fond of sewing.

pare two similar sized sheets, without
any place for openings, and shade them
away to the center, which should be al
most white. These will form the backs.
Take the fronts and with the deep color
outline large stemless daisies, arranged
so that each ones petals touch some of
those on either side around the ellipse.
When these are dry place the paper
on a board and cut out the opening with
a knife point, following the lines of the
petals where they lie next to the oval.
Prepare two sheets of bristol board q
little smaller than the sheets of tinted
paper and glue one behind each piece
which contains the opening. A little
glue in each corner will be all that is
necessary. Lastly, glue the tinted backs
to the other side of the bristol board
and place all under a heavy weight to
become quite smooth. The next step is
to put gilt centers to all the daisies.
Finally punch holes in each half of the
holder, n near the top, one near the

TeAcuP SIGNS.

How ono May Read the Future from
Floating Bits of Tea at Home.
If we may believe the lore of our grand.
mothers, Il good many Of those events which
are usually supposed to be hidden from the
world.till the time of their arrival may be
OWNED in advance by means OF the cup
which cheers" Most of these ~''signs," even,
are well known Mt the present time, but
here are n few with which all readers may
not be acquainted:
When a bit of the stem or twig of the tea
is seen floating in the cup it is a sign tina,
a visitor" may be expected. II the stalk
has a hard feeling when pressed between
the thumb and finger the caller will be a
man; II yielding, a woman. When the COM
ing OF n masculine friend is thus indicated
to n young lady, she should
Bite him in two and throw him under the table;
He will come IL he Is able.
Another variation consists in stirring the
contents of the cup swiftly around, as socn
as the float is discovered, leaving the tea.
spoon standing erect in the center of the
cup. II the beau" floats around the edge
of the cup, without coming near the spooa.
he will in some way fail to make the con-
templated visit. II it touches the spoon
and then sails away, his coming will be
unfortunate. but if it adheres to the handle,
remaining there till the contents of the
cup become quiet, his coming will be as
Bured, and its result will be all that could
be desired.
If a young lady would know the number
of years that will elapse before her mar
riage, let her balance a perfectly dry spoon
on the edge of her cup. Taking a few
drops of tea in a spoon held an inch above
the first, let one drop after another fall
gently into the bowl of the one which is in
balance. The number OF drops required to
destroy the equilibrium of the spoon will
probably be found to indicate the years
which will pass before marriage.
Should d single person by any chance
ave two spoons placed in or beside a single
cup 1t is a sign of marriage before the
close OF the year-unless the event happens
OF the 3lst Of December, when marriage
may be looked for during the following
year.
II a young lady adds milk or cream to
her tea before putting in the sugar, it is a
sign that she is in danger of being crossed
In love.
If while the tea is being made the lid Of
the teapot is for any purpose removed and
its return is forgotten, 1t is an indication
hat some one will drop in to share the re
should be prepared.
Fill u cup nearly full of tea and drop in 5
lump Of loaf sugar. II the small bubbles
which rise gather and remain in the cen.
ter of the cup it is n sign of fair weather;
but II they seek the outer edge, n storm Is
indicated ard its violence will be in pro
portion to the rapidity and energy of their
movements,-Nevtor Norton IN Cool

ale is gettin the best of 'em. People that's
all played out an bound to go soon, but
look all right and don't show signs OF dis
ease-thnt's the kind ! speculate in. My
father taught me this business. He's a
farmer over in Jersey"
And will you insure mep'' asked The
World reporter who was digging out these
facts.
"Nawl FOUR face is too round, like an
apple, and you've got a full chin. A long
faced, sharp featured man is what I'll risk
my seventy five cents IA week on, like my
old man there, but he hangs on too long to
suit me" Her consumptive husband lying
on the lounge heard all this, but made no
sign. She has four boys, the youngest a
baby, all healthy looking, but she has them
insured for all the companies will risk, and
spoke with apparent qualification of the
fact that any of them might die.
Horrible as this seems, her %neighborr
and one physician make the case much
worse. She began by ~defrauding chart
table organizations. She would "pick uE
n miserable baby and n poor old woman
somewhere" install them in n wretchedly
furnished room and report the case. Bed
ding, clothing. coal and provisions would
pour in; woman and baby would be shipped
TO another room and Mrs. Joyce woulC
confiscate the stuff. At length one woman
demanded half the goods, they quarreled
the woman exposed her and Mrs. Joyc,
went into insurance.
She insured an old laborer named Mort
arty; he was drowned in a few months
and she realized fifty dollars. She insured
his widow, who soon proved to hav,
9right's disease. Mrs. Joyce, according Il
one physician, kept her soaked in whisky
and in a few months there was eighty-foul
dollars to pay on her. Several other case'
are reported, and now the physicians o
the companies she has worked" will moi
take any case she offers.
