STRIKING TESTIMONY FROM
HONOLULU.

The Boston Herald Of Tuesday
printed an interesting interview with
Mr.. William Brewster Oleson of Homo

The usual Royaist steamer scare
takes the shape of report that Wash
ington Place was to have been fired by
a strong electric current sent over the
telephone wires. For a wonder, the
Government has not been accused of
hiring kahunas to pray the ex-sovereign
to death. Perhaps, though, that story
is being reserved for a subsequent coast
mail.

which completes the outdoor costume
has but two seams. 1t may scarcely be
said that no bones are use in this dress,
none being needed, even for the purpose
OF stretching seams, as no seams show.
The indoor costume is here shown-a
guimpc made of some soft material.
with simple sleeves, and yoke. Dress
proper and jacket can be made of four
and onc-third yards of fifty-two-inch
goods. The guimpe is made of one and
one-half yards OF twenty-two-inch silk.
One advantage of this suit is that ladies
dong their own houseworlS, or school
girls boarding themselves, may don a
long-slceycd apron over it while Mt
work, which can be removed in q mo-
mcnt, and the jacket put on, when the
individual is at once prcsentable. The
suit is becoming alike to stout and to
thin persons.
The two-seamed gown form can be
draped upon the same as upon any
other gown form. Sleeves can be fitted
into this kind of body just rs in a body
with many seams. In draping, there
need be no waist line, neither is there
any real need Of cord to finish the
waist; however, if we do make waist
line, it should be distinct.
In case the figure be difficult one to
fit, seam taken in the back will ar
range for those shoulders which SO
droop or round that straight body
will not set well.-Good Health.

Many housekeepers take great deal
OF trouble to preserve tasteless water

depends for all the taste and flavor it

frame with this; then give two coats of
ivory-white paint, or gid with gold or
bronze paint. Another way is to cover
the pine frame neatly with plush or
velvet. a narrow gilt molding next
the picture gives q pretty finish to

At the picture stores they give away
the triangular pieces that are left after
making a frame. These make a part of
very pretty frame for square or

board one inch thick and fourteen
inches square. Plane it smoothly and
sut off the corners to form an octagon.
Cut round hole in the center, ten
inches in diameter. Cover this frame
neatly with plush, paste strip of the
plush an inch wide around the inside
edge of the circle. Now take the
triangular bits of molding. They may
be had of all sizes, according to the
width, but for this frame they will
need to measure seven inches the

placed one On each corner. Glue will
hold them nicely. Fastcn the picture
to the back, and it is ready to hang.
II glass is needed, it may be held in

How One Room Was papercd.

A clever woman who had more ideas
than she bad money wanted to repapcr
her dining-room. She lived in small
place where there were no large stores,
and all the cheap papers which could
be had were hideous in design and
color. Finally bright thought struck
this woman as she was in grocery
store one day, and the result was that
she induced the grocer to part with n
great roll of the smooth, yellow wrai,-
ping paper that he used to put around
parcels. The family laughed, but soon
the paper was on the walls and was
supplemented with border of creamy
roses, which shaded from light browns
to soft pinlss. The paper was great
success, and the room, which seemed
twice as large, is as pretty and dainty
as one could wish for.

cardcd In Summer.
1t is the fault of many of our rooms
that they are overtlraped, especially in
summer. 1t should be the rule III coun-
try houses, us it is in the city, TO dis
pepsc with all heavy portieres and thick
hanSings i'll summer, not only because
of moths and flies, that are liable to
ruin any delicate materials, but be-
cause such hangings are supcruous in
summer. In winter the portiercs and
heavy curtains serve to keep out the
cold as we'll as to furnish the room and
make it look luxurious and warm. In
tile summer 1T is desirable TO catch
every breeze, and it is also desirable to
have the rooms look cool and airv.
Light muslin curtains of the simplest
kind are the drapcrcs needed. Elab.
crate lace curtains seem out of place,
and all woolens or heavy tapestries are
certainly unsuitable for the surround
lngs. scmi-transparcnt porticrc or n
hanging of netting is sometimes sub
stituted for the curtains of the larrc
door between parlors, Il space which is
likely TO look bare If left entirely with
out drapcry. 1T is Il matter of doubt
whether bcd-hangings of every kind
nav ocVIcr NC ulSpcllScu with or not.
Certainly the half bcd-tcstcr now used
does not Shut out air, but it is some
what elaborate and liable to catch dust
in summer, and for that reason it had
better be done away with for the time.
The curtains of Il summer bedroom
should be simple shades if the room is
small, or sash curtains that soften the
light but arc raised with the sash and
do not shut out any air. The most in
tclligent physicians tell us that nothing
is more unwholesomc than stuffv
drapcrics in u slceping-room, where
they arc liable to hold impurities that
exist i'll the atmosphere, and thus be-
come the breeding place of disease
The same is true of cushions and all up-
| holstcrcd furniture. Such cushions
should be covered with some washabl,
material so their freshness may be re
pcatcdly rcncWCd.-N V Tribune
