A sim pie French coffee-pot with an alcohol lamp, a small teakettle also with a lamp, tea-caddy, and a rule always adhered to, will make these processes simple, Cups and saucers and the cream-jug, sugar-bowl, and spoon-hoId- CT should be beside the mothers place
 Oatmeal and other cereals, if served on the table at breakfast, should stand by the sister or brother who dlspenses them. It is best to begin with a fruit course, and, therefore, finger-bows, fruit doilies, and plates, with the knives, forks and spoons needed for this should be on the table when the family seat themselves, If you wish to save trouble, and have the meal pass on in an orderly manner, you may place by each plate all the knives, forks and teaspoons which will be required during a meal. These will be used one by one, always beginning with that on the out side farthest from the plate, and as the maid changes the plates for each course she will remove the knives and forks which belong to that.

The Red Leaf.
From Harper's Bazar.


 If when October steals across the scene there were dt nizens of some near planet to gaze upoK the earth, even on our one section or phase of it, what a wonderful and changeable star she would seem to them! A little while ago she swung q living emerald with the summer greenery, as just before that she was a sapphire and silvery globe, with the winter snow and ice and their azure rifts and shadows, and here she is blazing with tints and glints of ruby and topaz and amethyst in the deep dyes of the northern woods of our parallels. What fortunate be- ings those gazers may imagine the dwellers on such a. star as this must be; what higher order of life may they conjecture it! What superior sensitive ness and virtues must those have who live in it; what completer faculties and undreamed-of powers walking among these jeweled splendors, or mayhap not walking, but lowered with wings! De luded dreams! Perhaps they think that death, by-and-by, if their deserts are such, will take them to these en- chanting regions, and give them the freedom of all these radiances and mar. vels. Perhaps they wonder what pro. duces these marvels, and apply their powers of search-have their theories and contentious and parties regarding the constitution of the next inner ol outer planet, as the case may be, mean. | ing the earth-wonder what we cal ourselves, and give us name that we may never know.

Hints on Setting a Table.


 One important thing to be considered when setting the table is the table cloth. This should be of fair white lin- en, if possible, with a pretty pattern of ferns or blocks or clover leaves, but even if it be coarse, and not beautiful in design, 1t must always be spotlessly clean. Do not let the laundress starch your table-cloth. No starch is needed It must, however, be ironed with exqui- site nicety, folded evenly down the middle, and the crease made by fold- ing shown plainly by the pressure of the flst-iron. Next to the table you must have a heavy undercloth of felt or Canton flannel. This serves several purposes. It removes the danger of in jury to the table itself from hot dishes. which sometimes leave a disfguring white rim or scared edge upon a pol ished surface, it deadens sounds, and it brings out well the pretty figures on the cloth. If used with care, an under cloth of this kind will last a long time. and I have found Canton flannel much more satisfactory than felt.
 When you begin to set your table for breakfast or dinner, decide on the places for the different members of the family, and then do not change these
