hut the sedate Young Minister Feared
High Kicking Girls.
A sedate young minister recently took
up quarters in a boarding house in the
Tenderloin district, says the New York
Press. He was delighted to find linn
self the only gentleman at a table
where six young women lent charm
even to murky coffee and hashed and
rehashed hash. He took them to church
with him on the first Sunday morning.
and in the evening they sang gospel
hymns for him. He retired early that
night, and the sound of their voices
1ulled him to sleep, but it did not seem
to him that the song was exactly gos-
pei. However, he had forgotten the
occurrence by breakfast time. The next
day some marks on the door of the
back parlor attracted his attention.
There were just as many of them-al-
though he did not notice that-as there
were young women, varying in alti-
tude from four and half to five and
three quarters feet. Over each mark
was a capital letter, but it did not oc-
cur to him that these capitals were the
initials of the young women. Under
meath the lowest line and around all
the lines except the two upper ones
which represented progress-was
smudge, as if former lines had been
rubbed out in order to make later and
higher ones. The sedate theologue be-
came very curious about these marks.
He asked many questions, but the
young women only teased him by way
of answer, exciting his curiosity and
fascinating him all the more. It had
seemed to him that young women Of
the city had more charming ways than
those of the country. One of the six
in particular. by name Lucy, had won
his admiration. She was the demurest
of all and she it was whom he took to
church alone and bought ice cream and
candy wrapped up in boxes bearing
gold labels. Yet even she was proof
against his most subtle queries about
the meaning of those marks. What
might have been the future relations
! between himself and Lucy If he had not
returned unexpectedly one evening
from prayer meeting no one can tell.
The door of the back parlor was partly
! open and he heard a whisk of skirts
and saw near the topmost mark on the
doSr the toe of a little boot-Lucy's
boot. His baggage was packed before
he went to bed.

THRIFTY FRENcHMEN.
They Allow No Waste with the Food
Supplies of Their Homes.

They Allow No Waste with the Food
Supplies of Their Homes.
Economy and cleanliness are syn
onyms. especially in the household. We
have but to refer to the French people
to prove the truth of this. Their thrift.
economy and cleanliness for a sequence
demonstrated in their beautiful capital,
extended to their very kitchens, where
the nicely of their food manipulation,
their careful marketing and dainty re-
pasts all seem as aids to the great SAM
tary problem. The Frenchman wastes
never a crumb. He markets for the
day. His larder never overdows. His
meals are composed of tidbits. Some
/ times to the American palate it seems
insufficient but when all is considered
what cuisine can take the palm from
the French? This secret of the French
mans thrift and cleanliness lies entirely
IN his method of supply The smallest
bit of food is not too poor to turn to
some dainty appetizer. Small things are
not abhored by him. Indeed, it is re-
voting to see large quantities of good
food cast before swine in the shape Of
garbage. One never sees in France
whole loaves of bread, noldy and I'M
slightly, cast into unfrequented fields or
lots or thrown into cutters by beggars,
familiar sight in the streets about
American homes, especially in large
cities. Money is saved, labor minimized
and health is preserved by economical,
careful observance of the food supply.
Contamination of one kind of food with
another grown stale is avoided and the
troubles of disorder, uncleanliness and
unhygienic conditions unpleasant to
taste and sight are escaped in a great
measure. Until there is a full recogni-
ton Of the danger from contaminated
food, becoming so by contact with de-
caying material, perhaps in the ice-box,
perhaps from the refuse heap or can,
perhaps from grease-clogged sinks, etc,
our domestic hygienics are not above re-
proach. In these days, when Spartan
constitutions are unknown and deaths
from mal-nutrition are found on all
sides in the fmprovident classes, a les
son or two upon the question of waste
| and want should work a wholesome
cure. Let the supply equal only the de-
mand, and there will be little or no
| waste.

DRIVING AWAY FLIEs.

Oil of Lavender Is Far More Serviceable
Than Screens.
81 never use window screens" said a
Use housekeeper the other day, tbe-
cause I have a fancy that they shut out
all the air in hot weather, and besides,
they serve to keep the flies in the house
equally as well as to keep them out"
But 1 never see a fly in your house,
said her friend. ''How do you manage
it? For my part, 1 must confess that,
screens or no screens, my summer
means one long battle with the little
pests"
My remedy is very simple one"
said the good houselxeeper, land L
learned it years ago from my grand
mother, when I used to watch her put
ting punches of lavender flowers around
to keep the flies away My method is
simpler 1 buy five cents worth of oil
of lavender at the drugstore and mix it
with the same quantity of water. Then
put it in a common glass atomizer
and spray it around the rooms wherever
flies are apt to congregate, especially in
the dining room, where I sprinkle it
plentifully over the table linen. The
odOr is especially disagreeable to flies,
and they will never venture in its
neighborhoOd, though to most people it
has a peculiarly fresh and grateful
smell"
Il shall certainly give it trial." said
the other woman. -Philadelphia Press.

FANCY TABLE LINENS.



Art Nowadays.
A woman does not realize what fasci-
nation there is in fancy work until she
begins to make it. The particular
branch of it included in linens has been
improved until every little article need
ed in the home may become a work of
art. Not only dolies, tray cloths, cen
ter-pieces, etc, but tablecloths and nap
lins are among the things that are
beautified by needlework. But this
article will relate only to fancy work
of the dolly type.
Embroidery is the proper thing now
for such articles. The designs are flow
ers, fruit, vines, leaves, or, if quite adj
vanced in the art, classic designs. But
the simpler ideas are more practical for
our purpose.
The woman in the country has great
advantage over her city sister in the
way of getting beautiful and at the
same time natural patterns from which
to work. And with a pattern from
which to draw, she may make designs
on the linen which will be much more
satisfactory than those purchased ready
stamped.
AS to the kind of linen to use, for
butchers linen. For center-pieces and
doiles satin damask is best. The linen
may be purchased by the yard. After
making the articles the size wanted, al
lowing for the hemstitch, it is ready for
the design. Take the picture of the
flower, leaf, or whatever it is desired to
draw; then place sheet of transfer
paper on the linen, lay the pattern
over that. and with d pencil or crochet
hook trace around pattern. Upon lift
ing the paper from linen the design will
be there, clearly stamped in delicate
lines, ready for the needle. An ingeni-
Gus woman will evolve many original
designs from her patterns by using
them in combination.
The latest idea for square pieces is to
butt6nho1e stitch the goods about one
inch from the edge all the way around,
and then to fringe out the edge to the
stitching. A pretty centerpiece of that
style is shown in cut. Other pieces are
buttonhole stitched around scalloped
edge. A pretty idea Tor making small

A remarkable feature about the mar
rage of the Duke d'Aosta and Princess
Helene d'Orleans is that it unites the
houses of Bourbon and Bonaparte for
the first time in history. The duke is
first cousin of Prince Victor Napoleon,
and also of his own stepmother, Prin-
cess Letitia, the widowed Duchess
d'Aosta, sister of that prince. There
fore the Princess Helene becomes first
cousin-in-law of Prince Victor Napoleon
and first cousin-in-law and stepdaugh-
ter of the widowed duchess. Though
Bonapartes have married into the reign
ing houses of Austria, Wurtemberg and
Italy, no member of the family has ever
succeeded to a crown.

A hemstitched lunch cloth with pink
roses embroidered around inside of

ABOUT BAD TEMPER.
Very Often 1t Is Accompanied by Many
Sterling Qualities.

Very Often It Is Accompanied by Many
Sterling Qualities.
1t may sound paradoxical to say so,
but it is true, that the best people
sometimes have the worst tempers. In
the same way, saints are often those
who have overcome the most sin. Per-
sons who feel deeply, whose sensibil-
tiles are keen and strong, rarely find it
easy to maintain a uniform placid ex-
terror, and the struggle between their
passions and their calmer wisdom is
often a terrific one. There are others
who never seem to be troubled-who
are amiable with an amiability that
it seems impossible to ruffie-who
never show any signs of irritation, but
are always equable and cheerful. Such
persons are doubtless much to be adj
mired, but their society becomes in
time not only exceedingly monotonous,
but even exceedingly aggravating. Try
as we will, we cannot get them to show
fire. They are devoid of enthusiasm, as
they are incapable of anger. Moth
ing disturbs that serene stiffness,
which is certainly not the still
ness of death. A hearty quarrel
is an impossibility. Whatever we
may do or say, they never get cross
with us, or call us Objectionable names.
All this is undeniably irritating. It is
quite refreshing to pass from the COM
pany of one of these to a warm, full
blooded individual of susceptible pas
sions. 1t is a treat to feel that the hand
which grasps ours could, if need be,
strike hard 1t may sound very pagan
ish to say so, but we do love a little
of hTTJ1 mt !,
and faithfulness generally lie behind
| some eapability of honest anger. We
know that those friends who often
| seem most cross and irritable are really
| our stanchest and most reliable. Not
that bad temper in itself can ever be
an admirable thing, but that it is often
accompanied by very sterling qualities
1t generally eoexists with strength of
character and independence of spirit.

| quently aniable; butter will not melt
