becomes vapid under such treatment,
and Hosea was no exception to the rule.
West Robertson had driven over from
his home, although he felt as it he had
been transported ON the wings of love.
It was, however, his favorite roadster,
Bay Dick. who did the transporting in

The turnout was hitched at the gate,

Downing an idea.

There is free masonry among young

Father Downing had no time to inter-

An OUTLYING k,Tcner.
A Handy Contrivance Who're Room

4
Lacking.
Nearly a score of years ago an IA.
geniOuS woman who occupied rooms in
house in southern city found her
quarters rather too cramped for con-
venience. and set about arranging
some device togive herself more room.
She secured q dry-goods packing-box,
and opening window in her room
slid the box out upon the sill, and with
q couple of strong screws attached 1t
to the window frame. It just filled
the space and extended some distance
above the middle sash. In this box
she arranged d number of small
shelves, brackets and hooks, atid in it
placed the gas stove, connected by d
rubber tube with one OF the burners
of the chandelier. In this convenient
and accessible addition she prepared
all her meals for more than a year.
The house was situated SO that the
rear looked out upon an alley, and tho
bcx caused no annoyance to anybody.
Finding it desirable to make a change
in her quarters, she tried the same ex-
pertinent in her new location, much to
the disgust of the owner of the house,
who was extremely whimsical, and pro.
jured.
1t is very easy matter to 6x up a
box in this way, and the only wonder
is that it is not more frequently done.
OF conrse, it shuts off the light from
one window, for the curtain must be
kept closed to conceal the cooking aP-
paratus-
It is surprising what an amount Of
work may be done in little place like
this if one is neat and careful. The
inventor of this convenience arranged
at one time to have such a box made
and fitted with strong hinges, SO that
when not in use it swung out SO as to
leave the window free, but an entire
change in her circutn stances prevented
putting the box up Tor that purpose.
In a little annex of this kind, 1t must
be remembered that articles that
would be affected by extreme heat or
cold could not be kept, as the heat
of the sun and the frost of winter
would spoil them. The lady
who first made this expert
ment had a small nursery refrigerator
or ice box in her ROOM in which all OF
the perishables were kept This boz
had a tank at one side for ice and
faucet She took very good care to
get as pure ice as possible, then, when
it was melted, she drew the water into
thicsnesses of cloth and used it for
surprise to her friends how she Sc
cured such delightful soft water, but
she kept the secret to herself and en-.
joyed the luxury.
Where a house has inside blinds,
swinging closets of this kind can be
managed with the greatest ease, and
if the house is small, are of untold ad.
vantage in more ways than onc.-N.Y.

Downing thought he knew better than
the girl what sort of n husband she

young Robertson's grandfather had
once gotten the better of him in a law
case, and, like the typical Scotchman,
Downing had been nursing his wrath
all these years to keep it warm. The
fiddle proved a greater pacifier than the
Gospel. West Robertson was invited as
u virtuoso to give Hosea, Jr., some help
in his musical experiences. which usual

left off counting the girl it gave him the
opportunity he coveted of seeing her
openly and above board.

NEW RIBBONS.
The Latest In Trim nlinEs for Fall Hats an


The Latest In Trim, minEs for Fall Hats and
Gowns.
New ribbons for trimming hats are
of the varp-printed silk with the do
signs small and close. AS we have
already said, wide ribbons will be
used, measuring from Eve to seven
inches. Blaclr satin ribbons have what
milliners call mousseline back, like
dull, Intercepted silk. The gayest
cashmere designs are on satin ribbons
for autumn hats, and are striped with
black velvet. Other cashmere ribbons
have plain edges OF satin. The prin ted
antique velvets already described are
also seen in gibbons Still another new
thing in ia tfeta ribbons arc stripes and
checks on chameleon grounds.
Yellow is favorite color in demi-
season gowns, and will be much used
in ribbons and silks of cashmere pat
tern, some having the genuine Spanish
yellow. which forms an effective back
ground.
Velvets of extra width are imported
for cutting the full circular capes
without seams. It is said more velvet
will be used in millinery than for
many winters.
Strass and steel ornaments will con-
tinue in use in buckles rather larger
than good taste suggests. Buttons
that look like brooches made of Paris
ian diam onds will be used for Louis
XVI. hats and coats.-Harper's Ba-
Ear.

PER,LS OF THE STREET.

A broadway Workman With Too Many
W0then on His String.
1t was only simple. harmless string,
chalked SO that all men and women
could see it and avoid it, held but "a
couple of inches above the bed of Gin
ders by couple of workmcn engaged
in getting tho sidewalk level. But it
caused as much comnotion for few
minutes as a five-barred gate in a hunt
ing field. broadway is about as lively
in the vicinity of Goth and 27th streets
of a nice afternoon as any other por-
ton of that great thoroughfare.
The two workmen who were manag-
ing chalk line over the cinder bed
preparatory to laying new sidewalk
appeared te have chosen the liveliest
part of the day. AS the work was that
of but a few seconds it w asn't worth
while closing the walk.
The first second, however, saw the
line swept away on the red shoes of a
broadway soubrette, who looked dag
gers and bowie knives at the man on
the tip Of his thumb nail, only to lose
it again the next train. Then every
woman who saw it stepped on it.
They made a point of it, apparently
apprehensive of some trick by which
the line would be lifted before they
got completely over it. The men in
variably stepped over it. The woman
who didn't deliberately put her foot on
it, gathered up her skirts and jumped,
letting out a half smothered yelp like
that of a dog an ticipating a club.
Sometimes a whole cluster of women
would suddenly bunch on one side of
the cord or the other. and then, fol-
lowing their leader, would go over tho
obstruction, skirts up. with hop,
skip and jump at least n foot high.
But some one of their number would
usually manage to sweep it away with
them.
One woman with firm chin and
evident decision of character saw. the
cause of the commotion, and calmly
stopped, grabbed it and jerl<ed it out
of the mans hand and threw it aside.
Their she walked on as conscious of
having performed solemn duty as
the man is who has just kicked
banana skin off the walk.
When the man at the curb end of
the cord wound it up at the end of half
an hour he had had more women on
his string in ten minutes than the
watering place young man has in ten
years.-N. Y. Herald.

guainted with his son, Hosea Second,
will bear witness to the truth of the
statement and authenticate the value
of the wooden head. 1twas particular
~ noticeable from the fact that the vio-
linist was the only freak in the family,
excepting the old man himself, the
girls being bright, pretty tlamsels, who
were quite the bellies of the county.
But Father Downing had great faith in
the possibilities of the boy he had
handicapped with his own name and
idiosyncrasies. And now that he had
manufactured n musical instrument he
looked upon him as a newly-Hedged
genius.
All the neighbors were invited to hear
Hosea, Jr., play such airs as his limited
knowledge of music permitted, and it is
fact that several neighborhood VEN
dettas were lured to a pcaceable ending
by the youths discorclant playing,
which passed among the tuneless and
tone-deaf as the sublime efforts of
genius, and those who were educated
out of that sphere were glad, for Peace's
sake, to listen attcntiveiy and applaud
without stint. Like all domestic bigots,
Hosea pere had his weak side, hut it
had not been properly appreciated un-
til now. The awakening of his soul to
the influence of the ''heavenly maid"
was but the prelude to another awak-
ening of much more Importance to the
pair interested.
1t happened that the only other young
man who owned a violin in the district
and attempted to play it had been igno-
niniouSly dismissed from the Downing
fanny for attentions to the pretty and
sensible eldest daughter, Maud, who re-
turned his affection with her whole
heart and soul. There was no earthly
reason why the young man would not

The popularity of color luncheons
and other feasts has brought out some
bizarre effects in colored napery. 1t is
impossible that these should attain any
great vogue, a trial or two will edu-
cate even uncertain taste to better
things. Any color scheme shows best
and most satisfactorily when spread on
a satin-white cloth. A new FEATURE
breakfast or luncheon is set out with
new or old Delft and is called Delft
affair. To get the bit of blue back
ground desired a square or round of
lace or open drawn work is laid over
blue silk, which in turn rests upon a
white cloth. Especially happy is the
com bination of polished mahogany
with the old blue ware, and a table
spread in this fashion lighted by globe
lamps or candles in candlesticks of
Delft makes very attractive picture.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-For many
years it has been my impression,
that during the reign of one of
the Kamehamehas. Ill, ~, or
", His Excellency R. C.,Wyllie,
Minister Of Foreign Affairs, Capt.
John Patty was duly commission
ed and sent down to the west
ward, to take possession of, an
mex and raise the Hawaiian flag
on Laysan, Lisianski and French
Frigate Shoals, that all the islets
in the general N. w. direction
from these inhabited Islands
might belong to this Nation. Is
there not such proclamation in
the files of the Polynesian? At
that time Mr.. Wyllie's far look
to the future excited ridicule,
though he never had Gibson's
plan of a Hawaiian Empire of
the Pacific. On the other hand
perhaps he would have favored
the first Pacific Oceanic Cable,
even if it we're laid with British
capital.
Hunting up and annexing bar
rem rocky islands is as essentially
Hawaiian republicanism as is the
prevailing military show, expense
and poppycock. A king was
grudgingly allowed a corporaPs
| guard to maintain royal state,
guard public buildings and pro-
tect the Government. and the
police were but a scanty few, yet
there may have been at times
from 1000 to 5000 sailors in port
together. 1t is all right to make
law and order safe and sure, but
that is laid upon kings and presi-
dents alike. Some men who were
down in a minority hole a few
years since are Ioosting on high
perch now, and have new views.
