THE LINEN CLOSET.
How 90 Keep It In order In the Easiest
Manner.


Manner.
The linen closet, the New York Trib-
une thinks, should be most systematic
ally kept. The shelves should be COW
cred with white paper, and everything
of kind should be kept in piles. Pill
lowcases ought always to be folded in
pairs with markings to correspond.
When the things come up from the laun-
dry. the maid should put the fresh linen
underneath what is already in the closet.
This insures everything being equally
used. The napkins should be kept in
sets and frequently counted, and moth
ing torn or worn should be put with the
others, but everything that requires
mending kept i'll pile by itself.
The coat closet requires daily care.
The coats should be brushed, the floor
swept from the street dust that is con-
stantly brought into it, and india rubbers
should always be wiped off before put
ting them in the closet. The medicine
closet ought never to be touched by q
maid except to scour it out occasionally
under her mistress supervision. This
closet should be kept under every lady's
own especial care. Everything should
be labeled. 1t should invariably be
kept locked, and its contents should be
arranged with extreme neatness. 1t is
very important in cases of accident or
sudden sickness that everything should
be Systematically arranged, as time is
often of the utmost Importance.
In every medicine closet there should
be u roll of old linen, of strong white
calico, OF flannel and of lint and some
sticking plaster. The calico should be III
strips to serve as bandagcs, and each roll
should be fastened with ~ pin. a pair
of scissors. some tape and u few largo
needles, already threaded, should be
kept in small box and never used for
anything else than accidents. Emer-
gcncy medicines are castor oil, strip of
ipecac, paregoric, turpentinc, SIENNA
leaves, epson salts, carbonate of soda.

Mustard, which is invaluable, is always
presumed to be in the house.
The above list was given by n ply
stefan, but there are of course other
medicines that might be added with adj
vantage. But as this article only deals
with the care of closets in general more
specific enumeration is not necessary
here.

Dvorals Awakens the Musical World.


DR.. Dvorak's bold declaration that the
negro melodies of America are to be the
foundation of n great national school of
music ranging through every stage of
the art, from ballads to symphonies and
oratorios, has aroused the musicians of
Europe. The Commercial cable brings
us an interview with Ernest Reyer, the
distinguished French composer. He
says that the negro melodies, even if
they do not serve as the actual basis of
the coming American school, will de-
termine its character.
The presence of the great Bohemian
master i'll this country is blessing to
art. And it is IL remarkable thing that,
Mt the very moment Rubinstein, Richter,
Joachim and other famous musicians
were discussing Dir. Dvoraks discovery
with correspondents i'll Europe, thocom-
poser himself was writing the gratifying
announcement that he had just finished
new symphony rejecting all through it
the negro melodies of the western world.
