Ornamental and Useful Furniture.

The elaborate folding beds with which
so many persons are familiar are apt to
be dwarfed by new combination piece
of furniture recently invented by an Eng
Gshman. The London Cabinet Maker,
in describing it, says that when it stands
upright IN the drawing room it looks like
an easel holding a portfolio that one
might easily fancy was filed with choice
prints. But there is a curious little
knob on the top, which being pressed
lets down the front of the portfolio. In
stantly pair of slender steel legs let
themselves down from somewhere to
support the front of the portfolio, which
proves to be the shelf of the desk.
Back of that are numerous pigeon holes,
boxes and all kinds of conveniences for
holding things, together with inkstands.
pencils, rulers, calendar, and all the
other equipments of a reliable desk. In
the top of the easel frame also is set a
tiny clock, like the watches set in ladies
bracelets, only larger. Another easel of
the same design lets down into a dress
ing table, with much pale blue uphol-
stery, and large beveled mirror, and
many brushes, boxes, and all kinds of
appliances develop.

How to Feed Dogs.

DIR. Gordon Stables is well known
throughout Great Britain as an author
ity on dogs and a persistent and con-
sistent friend of these four footed
friends of man. In the last volume of
The Dog Owners Annual" he saws:
''ln the matter of food many dog own
ers make grievous errors and are there
fore remiss in their duty toward our
friend the dog. l think the rule of a
light breakfast about in the morning,
and a good nutritious dinner at 5 D. m,
is good one, but we should never neg
lect to give some mashed greens twice
or thrice week, nor forget that change
does good. An occasional dinner of
well boiled tripe is a great treat to al
most any dog; so is bit of liver lightly
boiled. As to bones, young dogs NAV
have safe ones, but old dogs are better
without; a handful of bonemeal must
DO duty instead"

eral million persons, particularly ladies,
to see what she looks like; whether she
resembles papa, or ''takes after NAM
ma, and scores of newspapers have at
tempted to secure her picture.
4 few days ago, however, the oppor-
tunity for the qualification of public
curiosity occurred, and the reporter, who
was at the time interviewing the ex-
president, was not slow to avail himself
of it. There was on the table of the
Lakewood study a photograph of the
Cleveland heiress, who was shown in
the ample arms Of the colored nurse.
The reporter, who is also an artist,
quickly sketched the infant, and after
ward filed in at his leisure the portrait
of Mrs. Cleveland, which he substituted
for the nurse The result is the picture
herewith given.
Baby Ruth is a good deal of talker.
although she converses principally by
means of combinations of the words Da-
dada and Goo-goo-goo. She is said to
be almost counterpart of her beautiful
mother from the eyes up, while the
lower part of her face bears strong re-
semblance to the well known features of
her father. The baby's eyes are dark
blue, and her hair, the little that she
has, is light brown. Altogether she is a
very pretty child.

"Nothing New Under the SUM-"


Neither flies, the summer plague of
housekeepers, nor tleas, the all-the-year
pests of dogs are particularly suggestive
of gambling, and yet they are both
prominent agents in at least two games
of chance, for, according to Fanny
Ward, the women of Chill ha a curl
Gus little game of chance, which is
played by putting small piece of raw
beef on a sheet of fly paper and watch
ing the heas attack it. The player at
the side of the beef first reached by
flea wins the money. Minister Schuyler
observed a practice similar to this
among the natives of Turkestan, the
difference being that the players there
made use of Jumps of sugar and waited
for the flies to alight on them. An
inaum, learned in the law. told Mr..
Schuyler that this gambling game, still
affected by New Orleans negroes, was
of very ancient origin.
Perhaps the Vedic worshipers used to
sprinkle the succulent CHI on the ground
and watch the flies alight on it. Clear
ly there is nothing new under the sun.
And speaking of the antiquity of things.
DR.. Phene, in recent lecture before the
British Society for the Encouragement
of Fine Arts. proved conclusively, as it
seemed, tn the legends of King Arthur
and the r Table Knights instead of
being a peculiar property of western
Europe are really a mere transcript
from part of the voluminous old Hin
doc poem, the "Maha-bharata. The
likeness is so striking that some OF
Tennyson's Arthurian poetry, as read by
DR.. Phene along with extracts from the
Indian epic, seemed nothing more than
q free translation of it.

Gacred Nuts of Japan.

Although well known to travellers and
collectors Of curiosities. the horn nut, or
sacred nut" of Japan was almost wholly
unknown to fruit and nut dealers in this
country prior to 1888, when Broadway
(New York; commission merchant received
the first large consignment. They are
called sacred nuts" because used in GER
tain forms of Japanese worship, where
they are placed on the altar and ignited.
Being very rich in oil they burn with a
hot, blush fame and give off a peculiar
odor, the fumes being supposed to rise as
an acceptable incense to the gods. They
grow under water and have leaf like an
American lily, the form of the nut itself
being an almost exact counterpart of an
Asian buffalo's head, dropping horns and
all. In the raw state they are hard and
tasteless, but when cooked the flavor re-
sembles that Of boiled chestnuts. They
are said to retain their edible qualities for
upward of twenty years.

A Comfortable Church,

One of the most comfortable places Of
worship in the world is the new Episco-
pal Church of Zion and st. Timothy in
West Fifty-seventh street, New York
city. 1t affords the congregation all the
latest devices for comfort. Every seat,
says a correspondent, has a shelf under
it for canes, parasols and umbrellas.
Opposite each bench, on the back of the
one in front, hang little plush cushions
to be put on the floor and knelt upon,
and behind these cushions are racks for
the mems hats. The apparatus for heat
ing and ventilating the church is not in
sight, but is very effective. The build
ing is large and costly, and its walls,
which are bare of galleries Except a
little one in an alcove over the entrance
are all finished in red and brown pressed
brick. Its interior walls are therefore
like the outer walls of many buildings,
and yet the effect is very fine.
