FRAMING
The Necessity of separating Works of
From Their urrouudiurs

n Necessity of Separating Works of Art
From Their surroundings.
20 soon as n picture leaves the ease
and is placed on Il wall, some device be-
comes necessary to separate it from the
surroundings or from neighboring pic
lures. Perhaps none is so effective as
that of fitting it into n panel or other
defined wall space, but this, of course,
is only possible when the wall is
fashioned for the picture or the
picture specially painted for it's posi-
ton on the wall, neither of which
conditions it is usually convenient to
provide in domestic architecture. So
the canvass is generally fitted into n
wooden frame, to be suspended from
the cornice.
But the natural tints of wood are not
vivid enough to isolate the inclosed
spaced from confusion with draperv or
wall surface, nor would it do to paint
1t a strong tint, which would clash with
or react On the artists coloring. 1t was
very early discovered thai Il gold sur
face, though it's hue is yellow, owing
to its peculiar lustcr, does not possess
in a perceptiblc degree the blue or vio-
let reaction of the yellow. The most
delicate tints may be laid close beside
1T; the only effect is to enhance their
proper quality. Moreover, gold clashes
with no color; it is distinct from any
pigment employed in painting, and
ought to be distinct from anything en-
ployed in the decoration of a wall on
which paintings are hung. Alas! that
it should be necessary to comment on
the eNecrable practice of introducing
streaks and splashcs of gliding into the
design of wall papers!-Blackwood's

Act the fourth. Three graves in a

wife that died of a broken heart, grave
of the nan that died of dissipation. Oh!
what a blasting heath of three graves.
Plenty of weeds, but no flowers. Ring
the bell and let the curtain drop.
Act the fifth. A destroyed souls

BUTTER FOR
Its Liberal Use Should Rather BE Com
mended Than Restrained.

Its Liberal Use Should Rather BE Conn
mended Than Restrained.
No dietetic reform would, | believe,
be more conducive to improved health
among children, and especially to the
prevention of tuberculosis, than an in
crease in the consumption of butter.
Our children are trained to take butter
with great restraint, and are told that
it is greedy and extravagant to eat
much of it. 1t is regarded as n luxury,
and as giving n relish to bread, rather
than in itself a most important article
OF food. Even to private families of
the weather. classes these rules pre-
vail at table, and at schools and at pub
lie boarding establishments they re-
ceive strong reinforccments from eco
nomical motives. Minute allowances
OF butter are served out to those who
would gladly consume five times the
quantity. Where the house income
makes this a matter of necessity, there
is little more To be said than hat it is
often n costly economy. Enfccbled
health may easily entail Il far heavier
expense tina n more liberal breakfast
could have done.
Cod-liver oil costs more than butter,
and it is besides often not resorted to
until too late. Instead of restricting a
child's consumption of butter, ! would
it. Let the limit be the
power of digestion and the tendency to
bi~liousness. Most children may be al
to follow their own inclinations,
and will not take more than is good for
them. The butter should be of the best
and taken cold. Bread, dry toast, bis
cults, potatoes and rice are good
vehicles. Children well supplied with
butter feel the cold less than others,
and resist the influenza better. They
not "catch cold" so easily. In
speaking of children / by no means in
tend to exclude other ages, especially
young adults. Grown-up persons, how
take other animal fats more free
ly than most children do, and are be-
allowed much frccr selections as
to both quality and quantity. 1t is
not necessary to raise any clamor for
on their account.-Medical

Dainty Dishes Made Up with Preserves
of Various Kinds.
While most of our housekeepers are
especially successful in canning and
preserving fruits, they do not make as
much use of them in made dishes as
they might. While a dish of canned
pears, or any other preserve, served oc-
~casionaliy on the table is acceptable,
such dishes soon pail upon the palate,
as fresh fruit never does, for by the
providence of nature the season of the
fruit OF any n kind is limited, and
canned fruit is always with us. House.
keepers, unfortunately, show very little
ingenuity in preparing canned fruits
into that variety of buildings and other
desserts such as the French and Ger
man housekeepers excel in. The sim
plest German families make the delight

may be found at a few of our very best
city bakeries. This is simply a raised
biscuit dough, to which about q half
cup OF sugar is added. Roll this dough
out till it is not over half an inch thick.
Cover it with rich canned peaches
or w~ell-favored apples. Dredge it

with a good heat at the bottom. Cover
it while it is baking if it cooks too
much on top. 1t should be done in ff-

n pitcher of sweet cream.
There are many steamed or boiled
buildings which may be made of canned
fruit just as well as they NAV be

many delightful blanc manages
which may be made by adding

berries, or apricots in their sirup,
to a jelly. Where there is an
abundance of fresh cream, as there
should be on every farm, the variety of

PERU ACTS VERY PROMPTLY.
Ample Preparation VIII Re Made for the

Attack on the Consular Agency.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Peru
Wan government has taken the initia-
tory steps toward complying with the
demands of the United States that
reparation be made for destroying one
of it's consular agencies.
This morning Secretary Gresham re-
ceived a cable message from Minister
Hicks, that the consular agency at
tackled was at Mollendo, Peru, and
that In answer to the demand for sat-
isfaction made by the government the
government of Peru at once removed
the s~ub-prefect of the department
in which Mollendo is situated
and promised to provide suitable
reparation and further that the GOV
eminent had expressed its regrets for
the occurrence. This information is
entirely satisfactory to this govern
ment The name of the consular
agent is William II. Griffith. He was
appointed from Pennsylvania March
30, 1889.
No news has been received by Sec
rotary Gresham concerning the report
of the outrage against a United States
