A Dainty ROouas

Dainty bedroom papers are much il

some of them are. The one fault in

window ana Table Dressers.

English women are gradually absorb
ing the entire trade of shop window
dressing, an occupation still in the
hands of men here, as is the business of
table decorstlon, which in London is
usually the work of a woman in the
employ Of the florist who provides the
greens and blossoms necessary. The
London decorator finds her efforts very
much assisted by the electric light,
which is now used instead Of gas in
nearly all the better dwelling houses in
the English capital. A very much ad-
mired decoration for a ducal dinner
party lately was made with long,
low, gilded basket heaped with maiden
hair ferns and lilac cattelayas; great
lilac sash was tied around the basket,
the ends straying far down the long
table, and the purple orchids overfowed
the basket and tralled among the rib
bons.
The table, Of beautiful old oak. very
black and polished, had no tableoloth,
as is the fancy now, being yelled only
with two long strips Of old lace. But
the unique feature of the decoration
was made possible by the electric chan
delier over the table. This had been
tapped by six electric wires, which
were wound with lilac silk floss, and
they furnished the illumination to six
little globes of delicate frosted lilac
glass that reared their heads among the
orchids and gave them the most beauti-
full unearthly sort of transparent bril-

EARLY Mining Scenes Portrayed ut the
Midwinter Fair.
SAN Francisco, Jan. 14.-The 40 camp
at the midwinter fair wss opened 30 the
public today, and but few people who
visited the exposition failed TO avail
themselves of the opportunity to get a
glimpse of the golden days in California.
The gambling house OF the camp was in
full operation, the old stage coach ratified
down the street and deposited its human
freight of prospectors. The dance hall
was the leading attraction. The dancers
are pretty and graceful and the costumes
are OF q picturesque Spanish style. The
newspaper, which is known as The
Self Cocker, publishes the sentiments OF
its proprietors in the old-fashioned
frank way.
