DRESSING TABLE CATCHALL.
A Convenient Trife Easily Made and Otter

IS4us
Every ON knows the convenience
Of q box or basket into which she may
drop her rings, pins and the like when
she is either too sleepy or too lazy to put
each in its proper place.
The receptacle shown in the illustra-
ton Is easy to make and becomes a
pretty addition to the dressing table, be-
sides providing a place for the little
tritles that often litter it.
To make it, buy a small round basket
Of japanese make, or, if you prefer it,
Of sweet grass, and three pieces Of light
weight brass rod, long enough to make
a stand proportiOnate in size. Line the
basket with soft silk and make two full
pockets, one to be attached to each side.
At tho hardware shop buy a quantity
of inch brass rings and crochet them
over with heavy knitting silk the shade

Rational Dress In bicycling.

Ladies who ride cycles appear to be
pretty evenly divided on the question
whether a short skirt or knickerbocker
is the most rational dress for their pas
time, but an incident which occurred
last night outside a newspaper Office
points to the suitability of the latter.
There is a custom which is general here
Of carrying at night a paper Venetian
lantern within the spokes of the wheel,
instead of a regulation lamp. One young
woman has found that the plan may be
pretty, but it is dangerous. She came
into contact with the curb, upset the
machine, and the candle in the lantern
set her skirts alight, and there was a
rush on the part Of gallant pedestrians
to put the flames out, which were hap
PLY extinguished before much damage
was done, except to the lady's knees.
Had l worn knickerbockers.' she said,
Il should have come to no harm. -

One Of our boys is somewhat per-
picked over a question Of gravitation.
Suppose, he says, that you stand on an
elevation, with a piece Of lead weigh
ing five pounds in one hand and a piece
weighing half a pound in the other. If
you drop the two pieces at the same in
slant, which will reach the ground first?
1t might be thought that the heavy
piece would, but, as a matter Of fact,
they would reach the ground at the
same time.
Make the experiment with a five
pound piece Of lead and a piece Of cork,
and the result will be the same-they
will reach the ground simultaneously.
Indeed a feather would fall as quickly
as the lead were it not for the air,
which would resist the feather more
than it would resist the lead.
No matter how high we 60 above the
earth this tendency Of bodies to fall to
ward it is the same. The tendency is
weakened by degrees as we ascend, but
it exists, even in the remote depths Of
space, for it is the great. mysterious, all
pervading power of gravitation, through
which and in which the universe exista.

Woman and the Bible.

If the ladies who are engaged in COM
piling the proposed Woman's Bible will
send for a copy of Mrs. Louise Mann
heimer's translation Of Matilda Remy's
"Jewish Woman they will secure a
lot of valuable material toward proving
that injustice has been done their sis
tiers Of Biblical times. For instance, in
one place where the word "obey' is
used the correct translation would be
"be alike unlO." The author also shows
that Frequently where the women in the
Bible are made to appear in an inferior
or dependent position a full knowledge
an equality with the men.-ChicaGo

Chain Maidens.

AT recent wedding a very pretty
feature was the 'chain maidens." Four
attractive young ladies with chains of
roses preceded the bridal party up the
broad central aisle Of the church, tying
all guests in their pews and %stationing
themselves at equal distances, holding
the ends of the chains, until after the
ceremony and until the bridal party and
immediate friends had left the church.
Then they gracefully twined the chains
about themselves and followed the party
to the carriages, thus releasing the
guests from their pews and preventing
the crowdins of the bridal party, which
SO generally occurs. - Philadelphia

A Question OF Wills.

The making Of ones will is hardly to
be ranked among the pleasant duties Of
life. my will" says Slender, II new
er made my will yet, 1 thank heaven. I
am not such q sickly creature, l give
heaven praise" So also Dame Quickly,
when considering F~alstaff's spiritual
concerns, hopes that cit isn't time to
think Of making a will yet" When
David Garrick ostentatiously displayed
to the great photographer his pictures,
china, rare books and furniture at
Hampton Court, the sage exclaimed,
"Ah, David, David, these are the
things that make a deathbed terrible!'
A story is told Of a dying miser, by
whose bedside sat the lawyer, receiving
instructions for the preparation Of his
last will and testament. Il give and
bequeath, repeated the attorney aloud,
as he commenced to write the accus-
toned formula. "No, no." interrupted
the sick man, Il will neither give nor
bqueath anything; I cannot do it,
"Well, then," suggested the man Of
law, after a few moments considera-
ton, suppose we say lend. L lend I'M
til the last day." Eyes, that will do
better, y assented the unwilling ~testator.

knows more of the prison life Of French
women than any n else in France.
She lived in the ST. Lazare prison as the

died she has devoted herself entirely to

The Moons Face.

Gerald sat on his mothers Jap look

from behind a bank of clouds. They
were having a bedtime talk.
There he is, said Gerald, sober as
an OWL
"Now he's laughing said Gerald's
mother.
Yes, and what a big mouth! Don't
he look jolly::' cried Gerald. ooh,
mamma, mamma! See! He's looking
sober again, and now he's fretting about
something. Look! He's getting real
cross and ugly, and his mouth is all
twisted to one SIDE! What makes him

"A tiny, tiny cloud" replied NAM
ma. "Sce! 1t is just going away from

He looked like a cross boy" said
Gerald, when the moons round face
was clear again.

A Spirited Old Lady.

Mrs. Mary Ann Smith of East Lyme,
Conn, lately celebrated her ninety
fourth birthday. -Four days before this
event she led forth a party of women to
mend the roads she had vainly petition
ed the selectmen to repair. One petition
after another had been presented to the
town fathers, without avail, but the
women and children, with old Mrs.
Smith at their head, cleared the loose
stones from the road and made a safe
passage of what had for weeks been a
p~erllous track.

Of the lining selected. Arrange these
last in rows n below the other to form
lambrequins, and sew each fast to the
other at the points Of joining. Let each
lambrequin end in a point, and to do so
make each succeeding row of rings two
less than the last. Sew the two fast, one
to each side of the basket at the rim,
and then proceed to arrange the stand.
Tie the three ends firmly together
with a bit Of fine cord wound round and
round, then, tie over it a bow of hand
some ribbon. Stand the tripod upon a
table and hold the basket in place while
the point where each rod falls is mark
ed. Tie the basket firmly at each of the
three points and attach the three ribbon
bows.

I know a little maiden. but really, on my
word,
You would sooner think this person was a
tee-he bird.
For no matter what you say.
II it's sad or if it's gay,
This silly maiden answers you with "Tee-he-
he"
With n "Tee-he, tee-he, tee he he"
She's quite a pretty little girl, with bright
and smiling eyes,
And in some things l understand that she Is
very wise.
But though she knows her letters.
No matter what her betters
Or her elders may remark to her, this little
maiden, she
Is sure to end her answer with a 'Tee-he-he,
With "a "Tee-he. tee-he, tee-he-he."
If you tell her that your pocket is just stuffed
all full Of toys,
If you tell her you've a HEADACHE and she must
not make a noises
If you tell her she's your pride,
Or If you scOld and chlde,
1t really is the same to her SO far as l can see,
For her answer Is a giggle with "Tee-he-he,
A "Tee-he, tee-he, tee-he-he."
I have heard this little maiden say that she
was very tired;
! have heard her ask for lots Of things she
very much desired,
But to everything she uttered,
Or mumbled forth or muttered,
She tackled that senseless giggle that is quite
devoid of glee-
That foolish little habit Of a Tee he-he,"
A "Tee-he, tee-he, tee-he-he!'
I sometimes feel quite worried lest an elf Of
whom I've heard
Should come along and change this girl into a
tee-he bird,
When, in all sorts of weather,
With each curl turned to a feather,
She'd have to sit the livelong day alone upon
q tree,
Just calling out to folks below her "Tee-he-
he!"
Her "Tee-he, tee-he. tee-he-he."
Ella Wheeler Wilcox in St. Nicholas.

the water at which you hold the candle.
Now take a piece Of very thin wire,
and having warmed it, with it pierce
the center Of one Of the little wax cups
while it is still in the water. Then push
the cup down to the end Of the wire,
which must be curved, with a little
hook at the end to hold the cup. Repeat
this until you have nine or ten of
the cups wired, and then intertwine the
wires, with the smaller cups above, and
place the whole in a vase furnished with
pointed leaves made Of green paper.
This will give you q stem of lily cups
almost exactly like those of the natural
flower.

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
THE LILY OF THE VALLEY.
A Neat and Ingenious Way OF Initiating
This Delicate Flower.

Hold lighted wax or spcrmaceti cam
die over n glass of water and let half a
dozen drops of wax fall into the water.
Each drop will be transformed as o
as it touches the water into a little
floating white cup.
These little cups have exactly the
shape Of the bell flowers Of the lily Of
the valley, and they may be made large
or small according to tho distance from
