Always Cover 1t to Keep Out Malignant
Germs.
"My husband" said physicians
wife not long ago, "chanced too see
one day, standing on shelf outside
our kitchen window, some moulds of
jelly cooling for the nights dinner.
They were uncovered, as they were
out of reach of cats, and in full view
of cooks watchful eye; but he ques-
toned me about them, and asked if it
was our usual custom to leave jelly
thus unprotected. / was obliged to
reply that, so far as / knew, it was.
Then he said, don't you know that
when we medical men want to Sc
cure minute organisms for inves-
tigation, we expose gelatine to
the air or in places where
we have confined malignant germs?
The gelatine speedily attracts and
holds them. I'm afraid your favored
gelatine does the same. Cool the jelly
if you must, but cover it with a piece
of close muslin And we have always
done that since then"
1t is to be feared that kitchen
processes are sources of illness more
often then is imagined. In many city
houses the little kitchen annex where
stands the refrigerator, and where
various eatables are kept, is directly
against drain. Yet here stand daily
uncovered milk, butter, often custards
and buildings, and various other alb
sorbents. The average cook is abso-
lutely ignorant of sanitary cause and
effect, and the eternal vigilance of the
house mother is the family's chief
safeguard. Journal of Com

All Lovers of Sea Fruit.

There are a good many interesting
things about the demand for fish" said
the old dealer. People and races diff
fer very widely. New Englanders lead
in the use of halibut and Holsters. New
York contains a great many New En-
CHAMBERS and Philadelphia and Balti-
more few. In the latter two cities very
few Holsters and halibut are used. The
Irish take to herring and the Italians
to sardines Jews are very fond of fish,
and use fresh-water mainly. New York
and Boston use saltwater fish, while
the Philadelphia market demands fresh
water. IN. Y. Press.

FLOWERS IN VASES.
Different Arrangements Are yaryingiy Eff

Different Arrangements Are yaryingiy Ef-
fective.
There is choice in vases. All flow
ers look better in vases of clear crystal
or pressed glass than in those of china,
however rare the ware or artistic it's
decoration. Porcelain vases of grace
full form and coloring are really COM
pleted ornaments in themselves, and
they detract from the beauty of flow
ers, while their own conventional dain-
tiness also loses by the contact. An
other reason for choosing clear-glass
vases and jars is that through them
we can catch glimpse of stems, and
this gives the flowers more graceful,
finished appearance. When Opaque
vases are used, those in one plain, dull
color, which pottery dealers call mono
tone, are the prettiest, contrasting
tint to the main color of the blossoms
being selected. Imagine a dull-blue
vase filed with the black-eyed Susans
of the roadside, and you have the
idea.
There is, too, choice in placing the
vase. Large flowers of vivid tints can
be put further away from the locker
on, and yet lose none of their effec-
tiveness or be unseen. But in fine
flowers. like the forget-me-not or a
cluster of heliotrope, would be lost on
a mantel or high shelf. Put the deli
cate blossoms where their dainty color,
form, or perfume can appeal to every
one, while the massed and gaudy splen-
dor of larger flowers may serve to deck
dull corner or shady, somber room.
A pretty conceit is to put in each
ones own room bouquets of the flow
ers best loved. This is small matter,
but in discovering these favorite bios
SONS the home decorator will grow at
tentive and considerable, and perhaps
learn other ways of giving pleasure to
those to whom he or she owes much.
Some flowers display themselves best
in low, or saucer, boquets and often
thoughtless persons will give away the
flowers almost bereft of stems. Moist
sand or moss is particularly good to
place such short-stemed flowers in, as
they are better kept in position. But
the velvet pansies, with their modest
faces, have an unexpected trick of
curling up their stems in saucer bou-
quets. They are better controlled in
small vases, the blossoms standing up
right, just as they nod to us from the
garden bed.
Place vases when arranged as grace
fully as possible before mirror, either
on the mantel or dressing case, or hang
a small looking glass or sconce behind
the table whereon the flowers are put.
A simple bouquet of half-dozen sim
gle scarlet peoples, with long stems
and their own leaves, few daisies and
sprays of oats, reflected in plain mir
ror, make long-remembered double
picture of grace and beauty rarely
seen, even when costly roses and ferns
are freely to be had.-N. Y. Times.

The old Teutonic and Saxon races in
central and northern Europe before the in
PRODUCTION and spread of Christianity had
a great veneration for trees. They would
never willingly damage them. Under large
trees, especially old oaks, the great coun-
ellis were held and judgment given, and
the graves of this people were found in
grove, they always being buried under
the roots of tree. This all was a result
of the superstition that their gods lived in
those trees. In the linden tree Berchta
dwelt-a benign spirit who took charge
of the babies and rocked their cradles when
the nurses fell asleep; in the oak Donar,
the thunder god; in the willows all sorts
of spirits, in the elder trees the dwarfs.
Whenever the festivals of these gods were
celebrated, their trees were decorated with
lights, wreaths and questen (tassels), and
offerings were hung in the branches, which,
however, were plundered again when the
festival was over, the gods being supposed
only to appropriate the best.-Sunday

If anything could have extinguished
hopefulness in young man, we may say
that Shelley S poems ought to breathe set
tied gloom. He was sickly. He had ter
rible domestic troubles. He was often in
q strait for want of money, and, above all,
he had the worst possible opinion of the
society in which he lived. Nevertheless,
though his own generation We're chiefly
angered by the poets attacks on old faith,
old custom and old law, what most strikes
us at this distance of time is Shelley's
buoyant and hopeful temperament.
For him the world is always on the eve
of being regenerated, and new heaven
and new earth may be expected almost
with any awakening Yet Shelley's own
best knowledge was of French revolution
that seemed to have failed, and his short
years of youth and manhood were passed
in time of reaction, when it seemed Tor
moment as If England and the continent
were going back to the worst memories of
past century. Clearly, as regards this
matter of hopefulness, we must look be

STRANGE SELF DECEIT.
What n Morbid Love For the Sensational
May Sometimes Accomplish.

May Sometimes Accomplish.
A morbid love of the sensational some
times leads young people, more especially
young women, into strange paths. Many
extraordinary instances are on record of
the singular manner in which they have
imposed upon relatives and friends, repre-
scnting themselves as suffering from
battling malady in some cases; in Others as
the victims of injustice or persecution.
a case of the latter kind was that of the
Canadian girl said to be prosecuted by
the receipt of scurrilous anonymous let
ters The whole population was reused
into sympathy and Indignation, and she
herself was driven finally into her grave,
amid the lamentations OF the community,
by her malovolcnt and understandable ac-
cuser. Aftcpward an examination of her
papers and letters revealed the fact that
she herself had been the unknown writer.
1t would seem remarkable that one should
be ones enemy to such an extent as to
commit suicide by self persecution in this
manner. Yet psychologists know that
| such cases are not infrequent.
A recent illustration of that Is afforded
by the story of IA spinster milliner, who
not only wrote herself prosecuting letters,
put actually set fire and destroyed some of

order to satisfy her morbid craving for the
sympathy and attention of the commune

WHAT THE SIGN SAID.
And How the Meal Served Demonstrated II
Told the Truth.


Walter Mansfield, the board of trade at
torney, is a most enthusiastic sportsman
and an expert with either rod or gun, but
he will never permit his enthusiasm to
stint his stomach. If at the moment he
had his gun on flying quail dinner
bell should ring he would drop his gun
and go to dinner.
When Mansfield goes out on one of his
trips, he always locates place where he
can get good meal and so times his sport
that he will reach it at the dinner hour.
Once upon time he went up on the Big
Sulphur creek for days fishing, and as
he started out at day break he saw n little
wayside shanty, in front of which stood n
