NEAT AND COMFORTABLE.
Different Styles of Chairs That Give q
Room Character.

Room Character.
The character of a room depends
largely upon the chairs chosen for its
occupancy. If they are of solid wood,
with straight backs, set in rigid lines
around the room, they tell more plain
~ than words the Incorporating mar
rowness of the housewife in some mat
ters- If, on the contrary, they are
comfortable chairs, softly cushioned
and set at angles that invite friendly
chat or the perusal of the magazines
and newspapers on the center table,
they tell their tale quite as effectively
OF home comfort and cheerfulness. We
have known women, kindly inteutioned
though withal somewhat tiresome, who
insisted that everything must match
Their chairs were all of the same pat
tern, and even the vases and ornaments
on the mantels went in pairs Happily
this absurd method is out of fashion.
The day OF the furniture set is gone by
and we may choose our chairs for use
and comfort, and not for display.
The most elegant parlors of to-day
have no two pieces to match, though as
whole every detail of form and color
is harmonious In this matter we have
learned great deal from the orientals,
who seldom make two ends of their
rugs alike, but delight in that endless
variety of ornament and color which
never wearies the eye The great diff

Names OF Pennsylvania Towns

Villages in southeastern Pennsvl-

In Delaware, not infrequently take their
names from old inns Bird in Hand.
Lancaster county, Pa, is an example of
the sort, and in Northern Delaware the
old Red Lion inn has given name to a
village and hundred. The village and
the hundred Of Black Bird in Delaware
also probably take the common name
from the sign of an old inn. Fox

SNAKE STONES OF cEYLoN.

iThey VIII Cure the Bite Of a Cobra, the
Most Deadly of Serpents.
Theso-called SNAKE stones" of Ceylon
are celebrated for the efficacy which
they are supposed to have in curing the
bites OF venomous serpents. Secrecy is
maintained as to the method of their
manufacture, which is a lucrative bust
ness carried on by monks, who supply
the merchants of India with them
They are employed in the familiar man
iner by being placed on the wound, their
absorbent material sucking up the blood
and incidentally the venom, as is
claimed There is plenty of authentic
evidence of remarkable cures per-
formed by such snake stones, though
science is as yet reluctant to place any
belief in them
Sir j. E. Tennent, to whose work on
Ceylon a writer in the Washington Star
is indebted, tells of an occasion when he
was riding along jungle path on the
island, and he saw one or two natives
who were approaching suddenly dart off
from the road and return Immediately
with a cobra, the most deadly of all
serpents, grasped by the head and tail.
The man tried to place the snake in a
covered basket, but handled it so inex-
pertly that it seized him by the finger
and retained its hold for few seconds.
Blood food and intense pain appeared
to follow. as quickly as possible the
other native undid his own waist cloth
and took from it two snake stones, each
the size of small almond intensely
black and highly polished, though ex-
tremely light. These he applied to
each wound inflicted by the teeth of the
cobra. They attached themselves close
ly, the blood that oozed from the bite
being rapidly inbibed by the porous
substance. After three or four minutes
they dropped off and the suffering of
the man seemed to have subsidized. He
twisted his fingers until the Joints
creaked and went on his way without
concern. 1t has been ascertained with
certainty that these snake stones are
usually nothing more than pieces of
burned bone. The Mexican recipe for
for making q snake stone is to take a
fragment of deer's horn of any conven-
lent size and shape, cover it with |
grass, inclese both in thin piece of !
sheet copper and place the parcel in
charcoal fire until the bone Is well |
When cold remove the cal
cfned horn from it's envelope, when it |
will be found to be solid black fibrous |
1t will then be ready for
immediate use.

whose slopes herds of wild horses,

cavalry, or tame cattle for its commits

nautical duties were mostly confined to
lying back in her steamer chair under

on this account the more brilliantly.

with blue anchors, and her rough and

As she is probably the best horsewoman

nearly to the waist line and its broad

faintest suggestion from headquarters
of summer Irritation and havoc with the
hearts of foolish men.
The effect is quite as well worth pro
ducing, perhaps, when, the stockings
remaining unchanged, the frock is a
pale pink or blue batiste or a creamy
yellow lawn. There was girl on the
bathing beach one morning lately at
whom we all looked as though we had
seen and never again were likely to see
a pretty young woman. She looked
like Cuban, with warm rosy flush
under her clear olive skin, and she wore
dress of ecru linen, with a mass of
large petaled scarlet peoples dropping
from her Leghorn hat, a second huge
bunch of them at her waist, and the
vivid, happy color showing about her
feet as the wind, which is no respecter
of persons, seized the folds of her skirt
and tossed them about In the effort to
investigate her red Russia kid low shoes
and her poppy red stockings. Her para
sol was great canopy of changeable
poppy silk, with deep founce of black
lace dropping.
