An Orange Toilet Cushion.

This unique toilet cushion is large
knitted bali in bright orange o pbyr.
To knit one, take two steel Emitting
nee dies, rather larger round than the
wool, and cast on thirty stitches. Knit
across plain, turn, knit all but the last
seven stitches, turn, pass the wool back
on the other side and knit back The
other way till there are only seven left
on that end; turn again as before and
knit all but six; 90 on in this way.
leaving only five at each end, then only
four, then three, then two, then one,
then knit al, then across plain =. This
completes one of the nine sections Of
the oranges. Repeat from star to star
eight times. Bind off very loosely
when the ninth is finished, sew The two
edges together loosely but still closely J.
draw one end up closely and turn the
ball. Fill it with curled hair, as full as
it can be filed and not be hard, and
sew up the other end. Take zephyr
shaded from the deepest orange to
lightest golden yellow, and twist a
heavy cord yard long, and tip the ends
with full soft ball tassels. Sew the
middle of the cord to one end of the
orange and tie the cords in bow aboul
two inches from the ball-thus forming
short loop by which to suspend the
orange. 1t makes an odd and brilliant
ornament for the dressing-case and re-

The BrOtherless Girl.

The girl without brother is espe-
cially to be pitied. She is the girl who is
never certain of getting the pleasure,
of life unless she is very attractive.
or course she has no brother who she
is certain will take her everywhere;
she is apt to get little bit vain, for she
has no brother to tell her, as only a
brother will, of her faults and mistakes.
1t is only the somewhat doubtful tact
of brother that announces, / wouldn't
walk up the street with you in that
frock," and the girl whose brother says
this to her may be certain that he is
only expressing the opinion of other
girls brothers. He may not do it in
the most gentle way, but he does tell
the truth, and if you ask him why pay
ing visit to another girl is more de-
sirable than to one you know, he will
sit down and look at you, and then he
will say: Well, you see, it is Just this
way. From the time you get there she
is nice girl who gives you a pleasant
welcome and yet doesn't gush over YOU
She is entertaining, and yet she has a
fashion of putting down nasty gossip
or silly talk among whoever is there.
She is restful sort of girl, she is not
always wanting to do something that
tires you half to death and where the
game isn't worth the candle, and when
she says goodbye to you you feel GER
tain that she is pretty glad yon came
and that she will be glad to see you
another time, but that she doesn't look
upon you as the one and only man in
the void" That is the kind of a de-
scription that the brotherless girl can't
get. Then she doesn't hear of men
that fellow would rather not have his
sister go with Probably the wisest
course for her TO pursue is for her to
choose as her most intimate friend a
girl who has wise brother; then she
can reap the benefit of his counsel

Children's Table Manners.

One Ct the first lessons of child at
the table should be to take liquids
noiselessly from the side of the spoon,
writes Elisabeth Robinson Scovil in the
February LADIES' Rome Journal. This
does not seem to be an easy accomplish
ment, judging from the small number
of persons who possess it. Another
should be to keep the lips closed when
eating solids, to avoid the disagreeable
noise that sometimes accompanies the
action. Bread to be eaten with soup or
milk should be laid at the left of the
plate, and broken with one hand only.
Meat must be finely cut and eaten
slowly; vegetable food requires even
more mastication than meat, as it must
be thoroughly mixed with the saliva to
insure proper digestion. 1t is better to
help children to small quantities and to
replenish the plate than to give too
large portion at once. When there is
a decided dislike to any article of food
only mouthful or two should be given
at one time.

Buster Bags.

A set of bags in which to keep dus
tiers is most practical gift for the house,
wife. Choose pretty cre'onnes for the
bedrooms and kitchen, and silkoline for
the parlor and dining-room. A yard Of
material a yard wide will make two
bags. Take a piece ihirty.six inches
long and eighteen wide, sew it up and
fold so as to have the seam in front,
leaving, about ten inches from the bot
tom, an opening large enough to put
your hand through. You may point
both ends or leave them square, or
make some one way and some another.
Trim the cretonne bags with flax
fringe in colors to match, and the silko-
line bags with a tassel fringe or with
the crescents, coins or bells used for
fancy work. Take brass or wooden
ring such as is used for curtain poles,
and draw the upper end of the bag
through about ten inches. Hang it up
by this. If you know the colors of the
furnishings in your friends room, see
that your bags harmonic. For young
lady's room, one made of white butch
er's linen with "Duster" worked on it
in quaint letters, or "Get up and dust"

Pumpkin and Squash Pies.

There is as much difference in pump
kins as there is in apples, about cook
ing Good ones will make good pies,
but poor ones will not. The small,
hard, sweet ones are the best. To pre-
pare them for pies, they should be
boiled until tender, then stirred till
quite dry. IT there are any Jumps, it
should be sifted. For each pie allow
two tablespoonful each of pumpkin
and sugar, one spoonful of flour, one
fourth teaspoonful each of ginger, Gin
namon, allspice and salt. Mix well,
then add one-half cup of sweet cream
and three cups of new milk. Scald
thoroughly, pour into cream crusts and
bake three-fourths of an hour. In max
ing squash pies, care should be taken
to have the squash we'll sifted. For
two pies use four heaping tablespoon
fuls of squash, one egg, four spoonfuls
of sugar, one-half teaspoonful of salt,
and two quarts of milk. Flavor with
nutmeg. Beat the egg and sugar, add
to it the squash and milk, then scald
thoroughly, after which fill the crusts
and bake one hour. Pies of this kind
must bake slowly and not be allowed to
crust over. 1t keeps the crust nicely
to pin narrow strip of wet cloth about
the edge of the plate while baking.

The Worlds Fair and Sunday.

Here are DR.. II rrick Johnson's ten
reasons against opening the gates of
the Worlds Fair on Sunday: First,
throwing open the gates would be con-
trary to precedent. Second, tie opened
gates would be against the usages and
traditions of cur national life. Third,
it is against the conscience of church
members, who share in the government.
Fourth, it would be national humilia-
ton to put our Sabbath in the back
yard and put on exhibition as one of
our products that mongrel thing, the
European Sunday. Fifth, it would be
a fearful menace to social order Sixth,
it would set a precedent which would
thrust into the Sabbath the hawking of
all kinds of wares. Seventh, it would
take the down grade for labor, for which
Europe is just now taking the up
grade. Eighth, it would force all en-
ployes of the fair and railroads to
work Sundays. Ninth, it would be the
forging of another strong link in the
chain which will soon turn the laborer
over, bound hand and foot, to toll 800
days year. Tenth, it would be selling
the Lords Day for few pieces of sill.

Is Man the Only ReasOner!

Thinkers, from Plato downward,
have, not unnaturally perhaps, regarded
the faculty of rational thought, " hich
they themselves exhibited in the high
est degree, as the distinguishing pre-
rogative of man. The Christian re-
ligion, too, with its doctrine of immor-
tally for man ard for man alone, has
confirmed the tendency to put the ami
NAL mind as far below the human as
possible. And so we find Descartes
SCI ting forth the hypothesis that ami
mails are untbinking automata. Not
forever, however, was the animal world
to suffer this indgnity at the hands of
man. Thinkers themselves prepared
the way for a rdpprochement between
the two. More particularly the Eng
lish philosophers from Locke onward,
together with their French followers,
pursuing their modest task of tracing
back our most abstract ideas to impress
sions of sense, may be said by sort of
leveling-down process to have favored
the idea of mental kinship between
man and brute. This work of the phil
osophers has been supplemented by
the leveling.up work of the modern
biologist. There is not the least doubt
that the wide and accurate observation
of animal habits by the naturalists of
last century has tended to raise very
greatly our estimate of their mental
powers. So that it would seem as if in
the estimation of animal intelligence,
scientific knowledge is coming round to
the opinion of the ulgar.-JameS
Sully, in Popular Science Monthly.
