tennis balls from going out OF bounds.
These doors are necessary IN order TO
enable the owner to clean the hutch.
If the hutch is to be we'll made 1t would
also be advisable to provide a slight tilt
to the floor by prying it off when the
box is bought and inserting a strip an
inch wide on one edge of the box. Then
two wedge-shaped pieces of wood can
be made to close the holes on either side.
Before the bottom is nailed on again it
would be well to make hole in one OF
the lower corners and dig grooves lead
ing to the hole. A piece of old gas
pipe or any other cylinder to TT the hole
may lead to the ground. In placing
the hutch it should be remembered that
cats and dogs are the inveterate enemies
of rabbits and these should not be per-
mitted to go near them.
AS a rule these dimensions for the
apartments in the hutch may be copied
as near as possible: Length of each
apartment, feet; depth, 2 feet; height,
IS inches. Smaller apartments, however,
are often made.
The period of CESSATION is twenty eight
days; the young will have their eyes
open in about ten days and are fully
weaned so as to be taken away when
four weeks old. Rabbits, when in good
condition, will raise a brood every
month.
Probably nine boys out of ten like an
ordinary Wnlte RABBIT as well as those
of the so-called fancy varieties. They
are inexpensive and, as said. with ordi-
nary care they are healthy and as good
as any. They are called by those who
sell them English rabbits. In buying
them care should be taken to see that
the pink eyes are clear and full; it is
sign of health. They can be bought for
from $3.50 to So a pair. If boy has
a long pocketbook and wants to play
fancier he can choose Dutch rabbits.
Angora rabbits, Himalayan rabbits or
lop-eared rabbits. The Dutch kind cost
from So to So a pair; the Angora, So
to $40; the Himalayan, from So to S.,
and the lop-eared variety, $40 to $15
pair.
Dutch rabbits are usually black and
white, are prettily marked and their
chief attraction is that they are very
small Breeding in an in produces this
character. The Angoras have soft, wavy
long hair like that of an Angora cat.

Under waving grasses,
Where shadow fieeting by

Sometimes passes.

Against lifes rain;
Graves are the soyran simples
Against life's pain;
Graves are a mothers dimples,
When we complain

Why do they thee disfgure?
To me thy touch, thy breath,
Hath nor alarm nor rigOr.
Thee do / long await;

Others have gone before;
I hunger more and more
To know what they are knowing.

Bear with this harsh exile,
And Death will soften, and will send fol-

The Dinner Table.

IF it weren't for fads the heart would
break, or people would stop in their mad
career and think. But fads we have al
ways with us. And the craze of the mo-
ment is for illustrated dinner cards.
Not yet in America has this mania
spread appreciably, but Paris, that sets
the fashions, pipes us this pace, and our
more alert mondaines are about to dance
to IL.
10, I send you along lot of picture
menus writes from Paris youthful
leader in our smart set. Paris is daft
about these cards. Can't eat without
them. Everywhere you go you meet
them. You get to look for them as you
do for new faces. say new, not old,
because the same designs are never used
twice-except | suppose, by such vulgar
people as get their things ready made.
AT dinner given by the Countess of
c. the other day each card differed
from the other, apd no end of fun came
in guessing why such and such designs
were thought appropriate for those who
whose engagement is off and whose ex-
fance was present, had a menu upon
which a man was shown on his knees
begging for forgiveness.
Il don't suppose that the Countess
knew Of their trouble, but there! that is
just the point. You can touch up your
dearest enemies with these cartoons, and
a vixen. Nobody else knows either. And
they amuse themselves with wondering.
Just the proper sport for dining, Ell?
You might as well have a go at get
ting this craze started at home. You
know / never did mind your getting
ahead of me bit. On the other hand,
though, I've a few notions of my own
in 1.nSprva for fhn Sn9 son
You would have better sense than to
dream Of using some of these, suppose.
I know they will amuse you.''
The menus which this thoughtful
friend forwarded were of white card
board, four by six inches or so, and were
variety of human peculiarities.
The figures were printed, some in col
ors. And, from their cleverness the
originals must have been drawn by
skilled artists. The collection represent.
ed samples intended for many styles OF
meal and mind. They suggested the din
ner stately, the dinner harmless, the din,
ner lively, the dinner Bohemian, the
luncheon proper, the luncheon improper,
the breakfast matrimonial the feast mas
culine, the supper insipid. Further in,
curry about this craze has been made Of
a Fifth avenue caterer. He is posted
upon it's patronage on the other side, and
is prepared to meet it when it breaks
upon the city with the advent of the
horse show. He shows but few specl-
mems, as his customers are those who
would order in accordance with their In.
dividual fancies. 1t might be a surprise
to see his books and know what recog.
nized artists are in the cause of bread
and butter at the caterers command for
choicest work. If the collection Of these
cartoon menus should become fad, it
might shock conventional people to find
how nearly their fancies are copied and
exaggerated by hostesses of the half
world.
A bit of Latin, dab of any foreign
tongue, adds to the interest of the IL
lustration.
It would seem that this craze might Of
fer work to clever amateur illustrators
and colorists.-The Press.

FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS
A Song of the Dying Summer.

A Song of the Dying Summer.
Summer, with her cleaning wings,
To the coming autumn sings,
Chanting all her wrong.
Autumn, in her robes of gold,
Showering wealth from every fold,
Listens to her song.
"Sister, tell me, tell me why
Now has come my time to die!
Why must | sorrow?
Hidden in the darksome grave,
Is there nothing that can save?
Is there no morrow!
"Joy and beauty / bestow,
Freely on the earth below,
Yet / breathe my last"
Autumn, bending low, replied:
81 will hasten to thy side
When my time is past.
'Fleck'd with white the moaning sea
Weeps requiem for thee,
Signing in sadness.
Flowers around thy tomb shall cling;
Rest thee, then. until the spring
Wakes thee in gladneSs."

MONSTER LOAVES.
The Largest Loaves of Bread Baked in
Italy and France.

Italy and France.
The largest loayes of bread baked in
the world are those of France and Italy.
The pipe" bread of Italy is baked in
loaves 2 and feet long, while in France
the loaves are made in the shape of very
long rolls or 5 feet in length and in
many cases even 6 feet. The bread of
Paris is distributed almost exclusively
by women, who go to the various bake
houses at $50 a. m. and spend about
an hour polishing up the loaves.
After tie loaves are thoroughly cleaned
of dust and grit the dread porter pro-
ceeds on the round of her customers.
Those who live in apartments or flats
find their loaves leaning against the door.
Restauranteurs and those having street
entrances to their premises find their
supply of the staff of life propped up
against the front door. The wages
earned by these bread carriers varies
from 2 shillings to half a crown a day,
and their days work is completed by 10
o'clock in the morning.

Do Not Eat the Skins Of Fruit.

Do not eat the skins OF fruit. They
are not meant to be eaten, but to protect
germs ger IS - The Popular Science News tells
US that the bloom of the peach is a
Iuxurlant growth of microbes, that of
the grape only less so; and when these
skins are taken into the stomach they
may find more favorable conditions for
their lively and rapid development. This
is the reason many persons think they
cannot eat raw fruit. If they would in
all cases discard the skin, they could
only derive good from the fruit itself

Illustrated Dinner Cards All the Rage.


The palmer the napkins are folded on
the private dinner table, says an author
ity, the better taste they are in. A highly
ornamental piece of folding is simply rem
iniscent Of hotel, and not always a first
class one at that. Place roll or piece
of bread in it's folds. Have extra spoons,
forks, knives, etc, together with sifted
sugar, cream Gf required, butter, ETC., in
readiness on the sideboard, which should
be covered with a dainty sideboard cloth.
Be very particular as to the laying of the
cloth, etc, even when you are alone; and
insist on every detail being as strictly car
ried out for the daily meal as for ''com-
pany," then your servants will be used to
the right way of serving and will not be
fiurried when you have guests, which
they certainly would be if you allowed
things to slide when you were alone.
Teach your parlormaid always to give
the glass and plate a rub over with a
channels as she lays them down on the
table, so as to insure their being at their
brightest If this is done, and the plate
washed in plenty Of hot water and silver
and yet will keep in good condition.
Above all, impress on your maid the alb
solute necessity of quiet waiting. A noisy
waitress is never a good one, however
quick or handy she may be. Lastly, re-
member that, when you are training a
girl, though everything, good or bad,
must be remarked on, never do it at ia
BILE! This public reproof only makes the
unfortunate servant idiotic and worries
your guests unspeakably.

walking in the country with friend who
possessed magnificent Newfoundland,

Snotted CIGARS.

There is tradition among cigar smok-

to the effect that spotted cigars are the
best To meet the demand for spotted
goods some manufacturers use diluted
sulohuric acid, which, being ILLEGALLY
sprinkled on the tobacco to be used for
wrappers, gives the desired speckled APP
pearance. In justification of this prac-
tice the manufacturers say it doesn't hurt
the cigar at all and it pleases some smok-
