How Many Familiar Bits OF Bric-a-brac

In these days, when everything from

really graceful novelty Is not to be
overlooked. Such one, seen recently,
was n lamp evolved from an Italian
wine bottle. Into the long, slender
neck Of large wicker-bodied Chianti

glass lamp bulbs to be found in the
leading shops The shade, a most
harmonious accompaniment to this ef-
fective conceit, was Of fine spriggcd

If needlework is not cared for the prct
ty insects can be fastened to the cloth
with good and clear liquid glue, gliding
the edges of the wings afterwards with
d little paint applied with camel-hair
brush. The other method is to ap-
plique the butterflies OH, using fine
gold thread for the purpose; in both
cases the effect will be very pretty.
When this ornumentation is COM
plete, and glance at the sketch will
give an idea of the arrangement, the
cloth must be tightly strained over the
frame, each leaf separate, using small
fancy nails for the purpose of fixing,
and being very careful to turn in all
edges quite neatly. 1t will be found
best to cut narrow strip Of cloth with
which to cover the screen where the
two leaves join, and this should be
nailed tightly and smoothly as last
item.
Having then covered the screen, the
upper half of one leaf should be further
adorned by full gathered piece of
the eau-de-Nil silk, as seen by the
sketch. We then come to the inside
of the screen, and this Is lined entire
ly with the eau-dc-Nil silk, slightly
gathered from top to bottom. A small
light Photographic shelf can be, II
liked, fixed across the top of each leaf
and few pretty fancy brass hooks
screwed in the spar that goes across
the center will be found most useful
for hanging the work bag, ETC., upon
Your screen is now complete, and all
that is required for finishing touch
are few yards of gold tinsc! lace In
sertion with which to edge the screen
top ard bottom. My design is, perhaps
a little elaborate, but it would moi
prove xpensive.--Mndame.

According to latest advices a
curious and not unpleasing change
is coming over the spirit of the
native people of Samoa. They
are apparently losing faith in
their chief industry-war. Late
ly Tamasese was proclaimed as
king, in rivalry of Malietoa, at
that nest of the disaffected, Aana.
1t has been stated since, however,
that this action was not generally
supported by the malcontents,
also that Tamasese intended to go
to Tonga, for good or long time,
shortly. Should the Samoans
begin in earnest to pursue the
paths of peaceful industry, the
three Powers might well leave
them alone to work out their own
destiny.

we read that dealers in bicy-
cleS are authority for the state
ment that the business aspect
of the bicycle trade has mate
rally changed during the past
year. Instead of the main
business consisting in dealing
with mems wheels, quite the
contrary is true. Dealers are
now doing their utmost to
attract the eyes of the women.
All of which shows that the
ladies are taking very kindly
to bicycle riding all over the
world. And it is the same
here, the demand for ladies'
wheels is continually increaS-
ing. We have received five
of the TRIBUNE LADIES'
WHEELS on this steamer and
have more on the way. These
wheels are of this years make,
direct from the factory, no back
numbers, and have all the latest
Improvements.
We have also a number of

my" wheels. This is an en-
tirely new machine, named
after the great rider, thinner
mann, and we shall be pleased
to explain its merits to in
tending purchasers.
But we started in to say a
few words on CUTLERY, of
which we received an i'm
menSe assortment on the Aus

cutlery we have an immense
variety in new and elegant

ct cutlery we have a number
of new designs. Knives to
cut lead pencils and knives to
trim your finger nails with, and
knives to cut down your ex-
penseS with. We have prun-
ing knives which are just the
thing for the members of the
Legislature to use in cutting
down the appropriation bills,
and some suitable for the Adj
vertiser man to do his Cheese
pairing" with. In fact we
have all kinds of knives, large
and small, light or heavy, but
all of them of the best quality
and manufacture.
We have carving knives
with ivory, buckhorn or bone

ming knives, knives with cork
screws in them for camping

| The bulletin is intended not only to
record the results of Investigations, but
also to suggest lines of work that might
protitably be taken up by experiment
stations and other similar institutions.
While technical in its nature the bulle-
tin contains many suggestions of
practical value. 1t shows that the
chemistry, as well as the structure of
Bordeaux Mixture, may be materially
changed by the method of bringing
together the ingredients, and suggests
necessary notifications of former direc-
tons for preparing the fungicide.
The author says: Notwithstanding
the widespread use of Bordeaux Mix
ture, the exact nature of its action ia
preventing the ravages of parasitic
fungi has been but little studied and is
still only imperfectly understood. In
this bulletin an attempt Is made to
present a summary of our present
knowledge on the subject, and with
this end in view all literature relating
to the amount ofcopper necessary to kill
fungi and algae has been collected and
briefly summarized.
"The questions considered are dis
cussed under the following heads: (D
Chemical composition of Bordeaux
Mixture; ~ physical nature, cause of
setting;- 60 conditions governing the
adherence of the mixture and the solu-
bility of copper; a. amounts of copper
in solution necessary to kill fungi and
other cryptograms; (5) stage of develop
ment of parasitic fungi when acted on,
and how entrance to the host plant is
prevented; (6) hypothesis as to the
action of copper in poisoning fungi"
