BREAKFAST IN BED.
This Is the Way In Which to Enjoy the
Height of Luxury.

There is nothing which gives one quite
the same feeling Of luxury and affiu-
ence as breakfasting in bed-that is,
unless one is forced to do it. Then it
seems merely an annoyance. But when
the woman whom unkind fate and do
nestle Or business duties usually force
to be up with the lark can lie in bed
and have a daintily appointed breakfast
tray brought up to her she feels that
the final JOY of sybaritism is hers.
Sunday morning is the best time for
the daughter of toll to indulge in this
luxurious habit. If she is a churchgo-
ing woman, she may manage by having
breakfast d. 9:45. If she desires to be
both pious and lazy, there are those
who compromise by reading morning
service i'll bed, and their method is per-
haps not to be despised.
The first step toward ENJOYING this
luxury is to have ones warm bath, hair
brushing and the like. Then slipping
on a bath robe or a dressing sack, the
seeker after luxury should slip back into
bed, adjust her pillows comfortably and
proceed to enjoy her breakfast. 1t
should be an unusually dainty one and
served with the most appetizing regard
for appearances. The tray should be
covered with a delicately embroidered
cloth. The china pot in which the coffee
comes up should be as pretty as coffee
pots can be, the sugar basin and cream
jug the very perfection Of daintincss.
There should be q little glass bowl of
mignonette or %violets, or a couple OF car
nations, OF even some fragrant green
geranium stalks. A bunch of grapes.
duskily purple OR pink and opal, coffee
clear as amber and fragrant as only cot
fee can be, toast, a slice of bacon and
an egg or eggs boiled form a breakfast
fit to serve on the pretty tray.
If the woman who breakfasts in bed
will proceed to spend the rest of the
aaT there. sleeping when she COR, read

The Modern Style,

The prospective purchaser Of a city
house built to sell was consulting with
a real estate agent.
II think l have one to suit you,"
said the agent. 1T is in a good neigh
borhood and has all the modern conveu-
fences"
I'D expect that" replied the pur-
chaser. What I didn't want was one
with all the modern inconvenience. -

Many Of the Finest Kinds In Existence
Plentiful. but Almost Unknown.

Many OF the Finest Kinds In Existence
Plentiful. but Almost Unknown.
Many of the finest woods i'll existence
are yet unknown or only slightly
known to the manufacturers Of wood
in the civilized world. The woods Of
Central and South America are perhaps
the most remarkable as we'll as the best
known. In the yet untouched forests of
this continent are many woods far fine,
than any Of those now in use. These
woods range from pure white to jet
black in color, and many Of them are
most beautifully marked and veined.
Some of them are so hard that they
turn the edges Of axes, chisels and other
tools, while the band saw cuts them
only slowly.
In tho Columbian exposition there
were many displays of little known
woods, and the finest Of them were those
from Argentine Republic, Brazil and
other South American countries. Some
of these southern woods yielded to the
teeth of the band saw not tie ordinary
sawdust, bat fine powder, fine as the
finest -four, so hard were the woods.
Some Of them burned but slowly. 9th
ers possess qualities that keep them free
from insects. Some Of them seem to be
practically i~ndestructible by air and
water.
All along the eastern slopes of the
Andes. up to the snow line on those
great elevations, throughout all the
great river valleys and in some of the
wide areas of level country in South
America are great forests Of fine woods
that are specially fit for the finest cabi-
net and furniture work, and also fol
shipbuilding, carpentry and other in,
dustrial arts in which wood is the raw
material. These great forests are now
an unknown quantity in the commercial
world, but they will come rapidly into
the knowledge Of men and into indus
trial use wnen once the railroad has
reached them.
Before many years, it is safe to pre-.
dict, the South American ana Central
American republics will be threaded by
railroads, and then those wonderful
woods will be drawn upon to supply the
demand for new and fine woods in all
civilized countries. Lumber World.

COMPETITION IN BABIES.
Wherein r Word to . Wise Papa Ought to
he Sufficient.

DC Su1nCicHGs
81 am getting to 10 the most bare
faced and versatile liar on EARTH" said
the bachelor, land it's all On account
of two little innocent babies. Two Of
my friends at the Office have recently
been invested with tho honor OF pater-
nity-both boys. Prouder rapas you
never saw. One Of them. Jones, is an
amateur photographer, aud the other
day he took a picture of his baby and
brought it to the Office.
"Of course you know how intelligent
a child of one month looks" continued
tho bachelor, stroking his bald head
with the air OF a ~connoisseur IN iEfan-
cy. ''but the boys i'll the Office were
loyal. They swore it vas the brightest
looking kid they had ever seen and that
it was the image of Jones.
IF it had been any one else's child,
Jones would have knocked somebody
down for the insult, but he took it as q
great compliment and stuck the pic
ture up i'll a frame on his desk.
"This was too much for Sniith-the
other papa. He hasn't any camera Of
his own, so he got q young man who
lives next door to come in and take his
baby's picture, and he brought it down
to the Office as an opposition to Jones'.
Really I'm sorry for Smith il his baby
looks. like that picture, but l rattle.
think the amateur artist libeled tho
child and made it the monster it ap-
pears.
"The picture was not focused prop
erly. 1t represents Smith in the back
ground holding on his knee o mammoth
infant nearly as big as he is. The ba-
by's hands are outstretched toward the
camera and look as though they might
