Editorial Correspondence
1t is not very long ago that d trip
down the Indian River meant II journey
Of several days, if not as many weeks,
but with the advent Of the locomotive
and steamboat the time is reduced as
there is very little waiting for the
"wind." Having lived sixteen Years or
more asa ''ncar neighbour to this section
and often eaten Of its fruits and heard
many stories OF its immense pineapple
plantations its luscious oranges and
mosquito ''yarns," we conclude to go
and see for ourselves.
Arriving at TituSVille we registered at
the Indian River Hotel, and went in to
supper. We are used to having atten-
ton paid us, but not by so many at one
time. The little "blood suckers" were
very attentive and numerous and we real
lied that the mosquito part Of the
stories we had heard were more than
to have on low cut shoes had to take the
napkins from the table and Tie around his
ankles before he could finish the meal.
The following morning we engaged
passage on the rs. Y. Whitc' for Rock
ledge. We had very little trouble in
finding the Hon II. $. Williams who is
about as we'll known us the Indian River
orange itself and is as highly esteemed
by those who know him. We walked
through his grove to note trees that were
affected with the blight the disease that
is battling the knowledge of our best men.
The trees affected with it seem to have u
thin" appearance and the leaves arc
small and scattered. AS yet no cure has
been found for it. 1t does not affect u
whole grove but here and there a tr>c.
Trees not affected have a healthy appear
ance and show no signs Of disease.
The praises Of Rocklcdge as Il pretty
and desirable residence and winter resort
have not been sung too high The Rock
ledge hotel grounds with its shaded
walks, extensive lawns and beautiful
river front make it very attractive and
inviting, and we do not wonder that the
hotel is crowded every winter.
After short but pleasant visit Mr..
Williams took us to the depot a new
hospitality with him, as for twenty years
or more he has taken his friends to the
dock to wait for tie st amer or seat lhcm
in his own boats. s%

MAGAZINE NOTES.

The December ATLANTIC completes the
one hundred and thrty-fourth volume OF
that popular monthly. "Of tho Eternal
Feminine" by Mr.. Lafcadio Hearn is an
article upon the relative positions that
women occupy in Japan and America
and Europe. Another article equally as
noteworthy is that Of +. B. Sanboin on
"Thoreau and his English Friend Thomas
Cholmondeley." We confess to utter ig
norance OF who Cholmondelcy was, but
the letters show him to have been man
OF no small ability.
An unsigned paper, "Ideal Transit" is
a very interesting paper, but the fact that
it is unsigned adds to the suspicion that
the article is a clevcrly designed adver-
tisement OF western inventor whose
scheme land it seems feasible scheme)
is the same as that depicted by this I'M
known writer. To lovers of nature "In
the Flat Woods" by Bradford Torrcy,
and "Birds at Yule-Tide," by Frank
Bolles, are charming little tales of the
bird life OF the Christmas time. "Tom
O the Blucb'ry Plains" a pathetic New
England sketch; the third and last part
OF "The Man from Aidone; !" the continu-
alton of His Nanquishcd STAR" by
Charles Egbert Craddock, with several
other articles of merit fill up the number.

Directions For Making Paper Furniture

directions For Making Paper furniture.
l hope you will read these directions
very carefully before you begin to make
this furniture.
Take piece of tracing paper and trans.
fer the designs to piece ofcardboard
1t is better to cut out each piece sepa-
rately and bend it in toa proper shape,
before you begin your next piece. Begin
by cutting out the greater part of the
white cardboard round the outside of the
furniture and use small fine pointed
scissors for the purpose, asa blunt scissors
is apt to tear the cardboard and thus
spoil your patterns.
Little girls who are fond OF their paints
and brushes can decorate this furniture
beautifully. The woodwork may be
painted brown or gold and the flowers
different color. The top OF the bureau
may be painted to look like marble.
First OF all, cut round the outside OF the
mirror, then lay it down. Now cut the
bureau out very carefully, then lay it up
side down, take fla. ruler, or something
with straight edge, and make all the
parts which are to be turned down, with
a pen-knife, but not deep enough to cut
through, or coarse pin would do to mark
with. BE careful to crease and fold the
parts nicely. When the sides and back
OF the bureau are bent around and fastened
firmly with the best mucilagc, the top OF
the bureau may be turned down and glued
to them, and lastly the mirror is fastened
to the back.
Ii we'll made it looks very handsome.

Washing mirrors with warm suds,
busting with whiten in muslin bag and
polishing with chamois.
Wettng paint which has been spattered
on glass with water, and then rubbing

Remove tar by putting soft grease on

Boarding His Magpie.

Doctor Glynn, a benevolent but eccen-
trio physician Of Cambridge, England,
was once consulted by poor woman
about her only son, too i'll to be brought
to the doctors Office. The maternal anx-
iety so affected the doctor that he went
several times to see the boy, though the
roads were almost impossible for carri-
age, and supplied him with bark and port
wine at his own expense.
The boy recovered, and one morning
the mother entered the doctors room,
bringing large wicker packet.
"We can't getno rest, DOCTOR" said she.
"for thinking of the trouble you have,
and SO my boy resolved this morning to
send you his pet magpie."
The doctor looked at the bird, remarked
that he was fine fellow, and then con-
tinued:
III am very thankful to your son, and
very proud OF his present; but l am a
good deal from home, and my servant is
careless fellow, and am afraid that he
might forget to feed him. must there
fore request you to keep him for me,
and will allow you shilling week for
his board as long as he lives"
The old woman accepted the good mans
thoughtful suggestion, and was paid the
first months board in advance.

A dispatch from Burlington, Ia, last
week, to the daily press, stated that re-
markable case of death was discovered in
Il car load of lumber there. "The dead
body of Il negro tramp was found crushed
between the top OF the lumber and the
roof of the car. The fellow had crawled
on top OF the lumber and gone to sleep,
and the lumber, which became wet,
swelled up and crushed him to death"
And now comes the rush of dry-kiln
makers, every one OF them claiming that
he made the kiln that dried the lumber
a. II. Andrews FASTENED in and said that
without question his was the kiln, as it is
used in good many places in the drec-
ton from which the train with the dead
colored gentleman on board arrived. The
Sturtevant works. OF Boston, put in a
claim OF ownership, and the Standard
people say that their kiln is the only one
that can do such perfect work. IIuyett
wires owe. from Detroit that there is not
akin in existence that will so thoroughly
dry lumber that it will kill niger as
quick as that, and that it is the kiln he is
going to build that did it. There is also
great contention over the kind of lumber
it was. Strauss, of the Malvern Lumber
Company, writes from st. Louis that no
timber that grows out of the ground, ex-
cept Arkansas pine, can be so wondrously
dried that it will catch tramp when
quietly mapping, and just push the life
right out of him SO gently that he doesn't
know it, OF course white pine and Pacific
coast men say that Strauss is talking for
effect, and SO it goes. No matter who
wins, it was a great event, any way, that

swelling OF lumber Northwestern Lum-
herman.
