Learning the Mandolin.

The mandolin is not difficult instru-
ment to learn, provided the learner has a
good ear as like all stringed instruments,
it requires careful tuning. Ii is possible to
acquire n knowledge OF the mandolin by
means of book of instructions, but IL is
far better to take few lessons from u
teacher. so as TO learn the right manner of
holding the instrument, managing the
'plectrum," and acquiring the 'fretting"
of the left hand and other technicalities.
With regard TO singing, the mandolin is
not suitable instrument as an accompani-
ment to the voice and differs greatly in
this respect from the guitar or banjo. These
instruments take the bass or accompani-
ment, whereas on the mandolin the air is
played. and the piano or guitar would still
be required as an accompaniment. Man
dolins and guitars sound very well to-
gether for this reason, and any pretty song
is very effective when played on mando-
lin and accompanied by guitar. The man
dolin is a pretty, graceful instrument, and
is held with n ribbon across the shoulder,
somewhat like guitar.

HansiSgs For a Eoom 60 Luii the sensesto
Rest and Induce Sweet Sleep.

Hangings For Eoom TO Lull the sensesto
Rest and Induce Sweet Sleep.
The tendency OF the time is to separate
the bedroom from the rest of the house; to
give IL lighter colors; to allow within 1t
full scope for individual fancy; to hang 1t
with lace and delicate stuffs; to exclude all
seriousness and gloom; to make of 1t n
nest, place OF rest. where pleasant dreams
flourish and tender colors hold sway; TO
hang within IL no pictures Of worth; to dis
play there no articles of virtu, but to make
Of it a spot sweet, attractive. inviting as
whole. And 20 its walls are hung with
greater license than those of more formal
rooms. They are made attractive and love
ly In themselves.
The dado is altogether banished; the frieze
is brought we'll down upon the wall; con-
ventionalized flowers are allowed to trail
about; gracefu, designs are sought. No at
tempt at subduing the walls into a mere
background is made, and only the dainty
furniture stands against them and claims
their support. The picture as whole is
made sweet and inviting. And IL some few
critics carp and Cry out that it is wrong, let
them build up rooms that are better suited
TO their needs and that offer more tempting
repose, for while ID IL beyond dispute that
howered papers do not make -pefect back
grounds they do make parts of In attract
i've whole.
Others, less well suited to such rooms,
can be found TO serve where sleeping and
sitting rooms are combined and where pic
lures will be hung or the walls otherwise
decorated. But, concludes Harper's Bazar,
fer the room that induces sleep, that lulls
the senses to rest, that is designed for
bedroom and bedroom only, the dainty
lowered papers and the papers of bright
yet tender tone are good despite the APP
parent paradox and despite the law that
pronounces walls a back ground only. which
in all other rooms should be obeyed-

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Science.

Tho enthusiast in science is much given

who delights 10 suddenly disappear and
be lost 60 human ken, wandering away to
the remotcst corners of the earth and re-
turning after many days with trophies of
his prowess and skill. The scientist will
"go on the still hunt" for months and
years together and then suddenly confront
tho world with some strange result Of his
delving In tho bypaths of science that
