Tea Table Screens.

One of the most embarrassing positions
In which n woman can be placed at the ta-
BILE is when she is pouring the tea and cof-
fee. These adiuncts to the meal are usual
ly given to the guest at II time when there
is lull either in the eating or conversation,
and naturally the attention of the COM
pany is attracted to the hostess, more espe-
cially SO if she be pretty and graceful
woman The English long ago recognized
this fact, and made n very pretty provision
for it. 1t consists of neat woven wire Or
metal frame work about eighteen or twen-
ty inches high, which is placed on the out
side of the tea tray, inclosing it on either
side, thus partially hiding from view the
fair one who is doing the honors.
Generally speaking, the frame is orna-
mented with pretty little draperies of
light, fowered silk or some other fiimsy
material and thus she is shut off from the
curious gaze of the guests and can pursue
the even tenor of her pouring without ex-
perencing the slightest degree of nervous
ness. These screens are not, to our knowl-
edge, very well known in this country, but
once their utility was recognized would
doubtless become very popular. They
could be trimmed with bows of ribbon or
draped with lace or delicately painted de-
signs on silk or satin. Suggestive and ap-
propriate notices could also be woven in
the center or in any other manner that
might suggest itself to the maker. This
would greatly enhance their beauty and
make very ornamental addition to the
furnishings of the table.-Housefurnis

Washing Fruits.

Strawberries, raspberries and many other
small table fruits are not washed by the
majority of people before eating, for there
is a general notion among housewives that
by dipping them in the water first, fresh,
fine fruit flavor is taken away by the OPP
Grafton. This may be true, or simply the
result of imagination 1t is "A small point,
however, to keep one from using water as
an antifever agent. 1t has been demon
strated beyond dispute that disease is fire.
quently conveyed to many people through
fruit. When the fruits are picked off the
bushes by the owner, there is no objection
to their immediate use without washing,
but when they are purchased from stands
in cities they need good washing.
Professional fruit pickers often have the
germs of fevers, skin disease or other con-
tagious complaints on their hands. and
those are conveyed from one person to an
other. The dust from the city will accu-
mulate on the grapes and berries that are
exposed on the stands for sale, and it Ia
well known that this dust contains many
germs that are more or less harmful to the
human system. If fruit bought from the
public markets is washed the water will
often be absolutely black, and it is filthy
as well AS dangerous to take all of such
dirt into the stomach. Yankee Blade.

Arms Considered.

Fat and shapely arms are often ruined
by castillo soaplike coloring, which might
be avoided by attention to space in arm
hole and waist. Tightness of any part
produces congestion, and arms as we'll as
noses suffer- Hirsute tendencies can be
defeated by toilet remedies. and the ap-
pearance of arms, where only the elbows
are Objectionable can be improved by del
icate falling laces at the bend. When the
wrist bone presents prominent, ungainly
knob fountain ruf11es are delightful re-
source Any chiffon apology for sleeve
can be used, so long as it travels down the
arm and eliminates in the mystic ruche
wherein the offending bone can lie con-
cealed.
Bundles of delicate Mechlin or knotty
Irish point should be perpetually at hand
for our elegantes whose anatomy is ad-
dicted to nubiness. Arms that are over
muscular and obese should also be sparingly
exhibited; indeed they appear simmer
when yelled by puffy sleeve, which pre-
vents the adipose outlines from demon
strating themselves too vividly. The
scfaggy and cadaverous arm also requires
a full covering, difference in the con-
struction of the sleeve puff only being
needed An overgenerous arm demands a
long, flimsy, clinging puff, while the bony
one needs a series of crisp gatherings and
nutings, through which the offending
leanness is scarcely revealed.-Philadel-

THE REASON WHY.

And each day wears the look that yester wore

Yet duller men In chariots pass us by;
The reason why

No nobler heart than jock q could God bestow
We eat our simple fare in thankfulness,
Nor crave the dainties spread before the high,
My Jock and l;
They quaff life's wine, and we the lees
And who can tell the reason why2
And haply, a little while, we'll understand.
When cowslips grow and long grass waves
Upon our humble graves,
It shall be we'll with my dear Jock and l.
We shall be happy with Gods reason why.

drawn down over his eyes and "A sort of tip

And he lifted the man on high, and
whirled him around his head, and cracked
his heels against the wharf railing, and
finally let him drop with "A 'kerchug" on
the planks and asked:
"Well, has the bad man from Bad AK
got enough?'
"Penty, sir-plenty," replied the man as
he got up.
''Got all through chawin and chankin?"
"All through, sir"

He Reconsidered His Intention.

A friend Of the writer tells this story. He
says he was travelling in New Brunswick
one cold, stormy night this winter. Itwas
showing, and the wind was blowing furi-
ously.
He had driven a long distance without
seeing house, and he knew it must be a
long way to u village where accommoda-
tions for man and beast could be secured.
So he hailed with delight rough farm
house by the roadside and drove up in front
and began to shout to the inmates.
1t seemed long time before there was
any sign of life, but at last chamber win
dow opened, and a rough mans voice, with
a good deal of profanity intermingled, ask
ed what was wanted.
II want to stay here all night" said our
friend.
"Well, stay there and be ID to you.
You needn't wake everybody up in the
middle of the night" and down went that
window with a smash.-Portland Express.

She Knew What She Was About.

Prolonged railway travelling is so tedious
TO most people that any little diversion Is
welcomed and made the most of. An in
stance of such sort is an absentminded
performance on the part of an elderly lady,
which must have beguiled at least half an
hour for the other passengers. The day
was warm and dusty, and she was seized
with thirst. AT one end of the car was a
water cooler, and to it the lady went.
She took the cup in her hand, turned the
faucet and stood waiting The ice water
filled the catch pan and ran over and soon
was cooling the crossties Still the woman
stood holding the empty cup. Finally a
tranman stepped up to her
LADY" said he not impolitely, "do you
know what you are doingH"
''Me? Certainly do"

ignorance.

The Shopping Mania.

Why is it women love bargains so' Why
do they pounce upon yards upon yards of
embroidery or silk or ribbon they don't
want, have no place to put in and no earth
ly idea of using, because they are wonder
fully cheap? knew two women who were
drawn as if by magnet to shop where
velvet ribbon was 'going at a slaughter"
as they dramatically expressed it, and who
bought reams of it because it seemed like
flying in the face of Providence not to do
so. One of them trimmed her child's
dress until it was absolutely hidden under
corn rows of this slaughtered adornment
and the other bought dress on purpose
to trim with! And both boasted and still
boast of their thrift and management"
Both of them wear themselves, their
clothes and their boots out with walking
aimlessly about, their eyes absolutely pro-
truding for bargains. They give up whole
days to shopping, lunching down town,
and coming home Frustrated at night, but
triumphant, as in their hands they clutch
the precious bargains. What good do they
do them9 And is shopping an end and not
a means?-Chcago Post

Cruel Man.

as she kissed him goodby preparatory to
his going down town, ''the cook is taking a
holiday today, and the dinner you will get
when you come home will be entirely Of
my cooking. 1t will be my first, Charley.
DEAR and won't it be lovelyr'
She twittered softly at the thought, and
Charles turned his face away so she could
not see the lines upon it, for he loved this
wife of his and would not for worlds do or
say aught to wound her feelings.
Delightful" he responded, stroking her
sunlit hair, "and I'll bring those good
friends of ours, the pastor and the physi-
clan, along to be with u.s."
"Oh, Charley" she exclaimed. Don't
bring them. Bring some of the young fel-
lows"
"Pd rather have them," he said
Now, dear" she pouted, why not dc

How n Young Girls Heart Was Well Nigh

1t was afternoon. There was a slight
