There they go. the cabmen, whipping
their horses recklessly and laughing
alike at the indignant remonstrances
Of pedestrians or the Mortified eXcla-

They Should BE Simple But Neat, and
Scrupulously Clean.
In furnishing a bedroom we must
remember that we have to do with the
lungs of the house and, therefore, must
place no distractions to the entrance
of pure fresh air. For this reason cul>
tains may be more properly dispensed
with in this room than in any other.
The bedstead should be of metal Very
pretty ones are now made of iron
enameled in different colors with gilt
or brass knobs. The most restful color
for the eyes and brain is green. The
curtains. if they can be fforded. should
be of the Japanese crepe. which is
daintiness itself in this coloring. Be.
sides the bedstead small chiffonier
and deep chest of drawers, with two
chairs, are all that will be required, but
a washstand and screen to stand before
it are desirable additions. Above the
chest of drawers a long. narrow mirror
can be hung crossways. and you have
a serviceable combination of a bureau
and dressing-table. 1t is better judg.
ment to invest in comfortable springs,
mattress. pillows and BLANKETS than to
frittcr money away on painted cologne

rbe Cuc,ean Habit OF Using tho Mouth -

There ale a multitude OF people
who. in addition to the natural and
proper uses of the mouth. seem to re-
gard it as sort of handy receptacle,
into which any small object may be
thrust for safe-kesping till wanted.
This trait is not confined to either sex
Or to any age. Many fond mother
will cry out in alarm at the sight OF
her child running about with play
thing in it's mouth. yet the chances
are that if this same mother should
an hour later have occasion to pay
Der fare on a public conveyance, she
would fish out. from some ridiculous
receptacle called purse, a small CON-
which she would hold between her
lips till ready to make some other dis
position of it-and this regardless OF
the fact that on an average the coin
had been travelling about the country
for from fifteen to twenty years, dur
ing which time il had been in all sorts
of places and amid all kinds OF sur
roundings This observation is true
of many other things than small coins.
and of fathers as well as OF mothers.
Some of the most painful instances
possible have recently illustrated the
danger of this habit. The horrible
death of a well-beloved clergyman.
the result of swallowing small cork
which he was holding between his
lips, is fresh in mind: and at this writ
ing a man in Albany has his lungs
filled with tacks which he swallowed
in similar manner. He was holding

present. he now lies at the point OF

him. Surely these illustrations and
the suggestions which they Invariably
call up, ought to be sufficient reason
why no thinking person should ever
make a temporary receptacle of the
mouth for foreign substances.-Good

but before they reach him the cab has

In moment a messenger boy slips

every few minutes at their watches to
see how long they must wait for it
As soon as it dawned, and before it
was light enough to see objects at q

troops had been roughly handled, and
that many wounded men were carried
to the ship.
The attack on the city had failed.
and as soon as the fleet was ready to
sail Mr.. Key and his friend were free
to go where they pleased.
Mr.. Key often afterwards, with
great animation, described his feelings
on that memorable night, and how he
wrote the song. His heart was sick
with anxiety. He commenced the
verses on deci. in the feryor of the mo-

Der morning, vixen he saw the British
soldiers fastening to their ships. and
when he caught q glimpse of the flag
he had watched for so anXiously from
the first faint CLEAN of dawn. He
had letter in his pocket, and upon
the back of this he jotted down the
opening lines and some brief memo
randa of The current of his thoughts.
He relied, also, n good deal upon his
memory. In the small boat which con-
vcyed him to shore he completed the
poem. and that night he wrote it out

Nicholson, who was greatly pleased
with them. and took them at once to
the Office of the Baltimore American,
and had them printed for general cir

The author of the great poem and
song was born near Taneytown. in
Frederick county, Md. His father,
John Ross Key, was an officer in the
army of the United States. and his
fathers brother was an officer in the
