Ordinary sheet tin cut in narrow strips
can be and has been by at least one
clever woman woven to closely resemble
the fretwork and has been put to vari-
Gus uses with perfect success. The
strips were cut by the tinsmjth and were
sent to their destination sadiness for
use, but all other port of the work
were done by the mistress Of the house
with her own able hands.
The house which she had rented was
lacking in some of the fine elements Of
finish that her ambition demanded, and
she set to work to supply the lack. There
were transoms over the parlor and din
ing room doors, and the long hall was
unbroken by either arch or other device
for breaking its monotonous lines. But
today the little home is a model Of taste.
and every one of those objectionable fea-
lures has disappeared.
From each transom the swing piece was
removed. Across the top of the open
space she tackled slips of tin an inch in
width and between each two left an
equal space, and when that was done she
tackled each tightly and firmly to the
lower side of the transom. Then she cut
longer strips to run crosswise to those
already placed and tackled them across
one end, after which she laced them in
and out Of the perpendicular strips till
the entire space was filled with a net
work Of the tin.s
Over the door she made the space e1-
actly equal between al the strips, both
vertical and horizontal, and obtained an
effect quite similar toathat of the sim
plest design in fretwork. Over another
she. varied the pattern by placing the
horizontal pieces at distances of two in
place of one inch, and for athird space
she made a still more elaborate design
by lacing the uprights with diagonal
strips in place Of the simpler horizontal
ones. Whenthey were oil complete, she
stained the tin to the color of the wood.
For the hall, with its narrow, uncom-
promising length, she had two frames
made of Light pine that should extend
from wall to wall and that were 18
inches deep. Then, within these, she
wove designs in the. strips Of tin that
were suggested by the grille work itself,
and when both the strips and the frame

nailed on the under side of each head.
These are supported by four upright
pieces, with grooves sawed in the edges
at different levels. Brackets strengthen
the frame and secure the shelves prop
erly. The edge is finished with a fringe
or some other ornamental decoration
about three inches deep.
90 A useful stand may be made of a bar
rel sawed in half ~lengthwise, addressing
upon a framework Of plain boards with
a shelf below. This may be filed with
earth for a winter window garden, or
may have a cover hinged on for a table
and be draped with a cloth to hide the
barrel shape, which affords a spacious
receptacle.
Still another may consist Of two ends
Of a barrel, with the heads in each part
being sawed off just at the second hoop.
Through four holes in the lower one run
the supports of the frame, and let the
top part rest upon their ends. Some
small brackets under each barrel head
will strengthen the whole. Covered and
decorated with cloth and plush and with
cushioned sides and pockets, this makes
a very convenient work table, or, deco
rated in rustic fashion, a very pretty
plant stand.

Effect of Literary Work.

Now that SO many women are adopt
ing various forms of Intellectual labor
as a means of livelihood it may not be
without interest to consider the re-
suit of severe brain work on the du-
ration of life. Very satisfactory in
ferences with regard to this matter
may be drawn from the address de-
livered by Lord Kelvin a 1.-THE last an
niversary meeting of the Royal So
ciety. His lordship gave a list of the
number of fellows who had died since
the last annual meeting. These
were thirty-two in number,
including five foreign members,
and the deaths were unusually numer-
GUS, or, as Lord Kelvin said, a sadly
great number. OF course, it is hardly
necessary to say there were no women
among them, as ladies are not admit
ted to the dignity of fellowship of
the Royal Society.
OF these thirIy-two deceased fell
lows, the ages of thirty were given by
his Lordship; two only were under
sixty. Both of these were foreign
members. On the other hand, two
had reached the age of ninety
namely, Sir George B. Airy and Sir
Francis G. K .wles. The average

were all presumed to be highly

DESIGN IN STAR, CRESCENT, ETC.

OESlGN LIN OlAh, CREoCENI, EICs
other geometrical figures readily found
in many things about us afford a little
originality. Some very pretty designs
or groups for corners or border festoons
may be stamped and worked by this
simple method.
Take, for instance, three sizes of cups,
place them n at a time upon the ma
terial, circle around with the blue pencil
and make a group of circles, one tapping
over the otheZsnd work them in shades
of the desired color, and you have a de-
sign for a fine bedspread, table cover or
portiere. This carried out with spools,
from the big to the tiny little ones, makes
a pretty design for small articles, as dol
lies or teacloths. Another simple de-
sign is the 5-pointed star, in sizes that
fit one into another. This, worked from
the center out i'll shaded silks, is artistic
in effect. Again draw the star in graz
uated lines, following its points, and fin
ish each line with a V and q group of
dots ito be made in French knots), and
no p~rettier design can be found for some
simple piece of etching. An endless
number of figures may be drawn by
making various combinations of circles
and stars and crescents, with dots to en-
bellish and fill in the spaces.
To cut a large circle, take a plate Or
anything at hand that is perfectly round.
To cut q hexagon, take a circle, fold it
once and then three times and trim off
the round edges. To cut a 5-pointed
star, take three triangles with the hypoth-
enuse one-third longer than either side.
Place them upon one another imposition
to form five points. fasten them down
while you draw the perfect star upon
stiff cardboard for your model.

WOMEN ON WHEELS.
They Are Graceful and
Pretty, But Should Not
Try to Break
Records.
EFFECT OF LITERARY WORK.
Writers May Hope to Live as Long
as Other People-Some
Examples.

This is a go-ahead age; an age when
woman is as Enthusiastically GO
ahead as man, when she is prepared
to uphold her rights against all COM
ers, and when she ever wants a voice
in the government of her country. In
such an age, says Cvcling, we ven
ture, d~aringly, perhaps, to raise our
voice to protest against female record
breakers. We have nothing but adj
miration for the lady cycler; nothing
but an earnest hopefulness that
the sport of cycling may long
remain open to her without the
cramped and prejudiced and Argus
eyed public to warp her energy IN the
participation of the pastime. Tim e
was when public opinion was dead set
against the girl cycler. but it is o SO
now, and the frequently seen graceful
female figure, erect and stately on her
gliding wheel, is responsible for the
elimination of public prejudice and
the consequent capitalization of the
pastime amongst women
We want to see this happy condi-
ton of affairs continue; mol is this all.
We want to see progress made n
the number of lady devotees in
creased. 1t has been stated that
record breaking feats by lady riders
will bring about the contamination OF
this wish, but we feel confident that
exactly the reverse will be the case,
and when a record breaking craze
takes hold of wheelwomen we fear the
end of the tether is within reach and
female cycling is doomed! 1t mat
tiers not in what walk of life, or in
what pastime she may take part, a
woman may always reap the greatest
benefits. and the fullest enjoyment
within the limits of rational indulg-
ence. She is born to be graceful, and
whether she rows a boat, m~anipulates
a punt. rides a horse, plays golf or
tennis, or progresses on wheels, there
is a prescribed limit beyond which her
modesty and department should abso-
lutelv forbid her to step; and, more
over, beyond which she becomes an
exhibition that excites neither envyin
her compeers or admiration in the OPP
posite sex.
The record breaking woman-es-
pecially she who essays long distance
performances-cannot be graceful;
the peculiar action of cycle propulsion
at high speed will not permit it i n her
case. and as she poses in %scorching at
titude. twists her pedals a. rapidly as
she is able, and in fact centers all her
attention and energy towards the at
tainment of speed. she cannot fail to
be other than an object of ridicule,
an object to which the finger of scorn
is justly pointed, and a spectacle
which is neither edifying, or in the
least likely to lead others to take up
tie pastime of cycling. We hope.
therefore, the record-breaking lady
cycler has not come to stay.
