FOR THE SMALL PARLOR.
Be Careful and Do Not Over-Furnish
This Room.
INTRODUCE FURNITURE THAT iSLIGHT
And Graceful and I'm Keeping With
an Apartment of Restricted Size.

And Graceful and In Keeping With
am Apartment of Restricted Size.
In furnishing small parlor, or, in
fact, any room of restricted size, the en-
ror of overcrowding should be avoided.
Do not overfurnish and select only such
furniture as is simple, light and graceful
in shape and with ornamentation in
keeping with the character of the apart
meut.
A small parlox lighted with but one
window formed the subject for an illus
trated description in The Art Amateur.
In this suggestions were taken from both
the Louis Seize and the empire styles so
as to avoid the stiffness of the latter and
the extreme delicacy of workmanship
required in the former. An important
feature was that any object put into this
parlor, including the mantel with its
oval mirror, can be bought ready made
and at moderate prices.
a good color scheme for such a room
would be yellow and white for the walls
and dark blue and gray or dark and pale
blue for the upholstery and draperies.
The room being small, the color of the
wall paper should in any case be light
and its pattern small and simple like
that here suggested by the craftsman.
In the particular apartment that we
have in mind the ground color of the
paper is sulphur yellow and the orna-
ment of wreaths and sprays, disposed in
vertical stripes, is of deeper and duller'
shade Of yellow.
The woodwork of the mante1 is enam-
eled cream color. The applied orna-
ments are cast in brass. The tiles about
the fireplace are yellow, with white dots
framed in with brass molding. The
paintings are high in key and have dec
orative gilt frames. The chandelier is a
simple one Of brass, with glass globes
which give a warm yellowish tone to
the light.

Pianaforte Teaching.

Professor Waetzoldt, director Of the
Royal school in Berlin, is reported as
having made the following observations
on pianoforte teaching in his annual
report:
cit may be affirmed that the home
music practice of girls is more RESPONSE
BILE for this nervousness and weakness,
from which many of them suffer, than
the much blamed school Pianoforte
teaching should not begin before the
twelfth year. Moreover, music should
only be studied by healthy girls music
ally gifted, of whom it may be expected
that their playing will enc day give
pleasure to their fellow creatures. OF
100 girls who learn to play the piano 80
attain after years Of labor to only GER
tain automatic skill, which not only pos
sesses no relation to artistic execution,
but is even destructive of the capacity
for genuine musical expression. The
endless claims made upon the time and
strength of growing girls by teachers of
music must be stoutly resisted by par
ents and school authorities It is neither
necessary nor desirable that we should
have mediocre or bad pianists, but it is
necessary that our girls should remain
fresh and healthy in body and mind. "

Young but Successful jockeys.

George Thompson, the famous English
gentleman rider, claims to be the young
est winning jockey When he was mere
child of or 10, his father arranged a
match between the Maid of Shelgate and
a hack. He discovered, at the last mo-
ment, that the hack was to be ridden BY
a mere boy. Determined to outwit his op-
ponent, he seated his son, upon the mare S
back and told him to ride as fast as ever
he could AS his weight was only AZ
pounds, the odds were in his favor, con-
urary TO the expectations of the other side,
and amid great acclamations the young
jockey came 4 first by head. Luke Snow
den began to ride in public at IA years of
age, when he won five races. There is ne
other instance on record of a lad who was
only eight seasons on the turf, and yet
was the victor in two st. Legers, second
in two more and winner of the Oaks.

The average height Of women is 5 feet
2 inches, but rarely does one find a
house in the city or country in which
any attention has been paid to this fact
in arranging the closets. The hooks are
placed G feet high from the floor-and
lucky for the housewife if it is not
more-and above that is placed u shelf,
which is practically almost useless. No
woman cares to mount a chair or table
every time she wishes to get her bonnet
or shawl and the result is that there is
often a series of boxes on the floor,
which, if handy, have to be removed
with every sweeping.

STEMING RUMp STEAK.

4 Mode of Cooking Which Makes This
Undesirable Cut Very Palatable.
Take half pound of rump steak, re-
move the fat, which has to be put aside,
as it would make the gravy greasy, and
trim away all the skin. Make an ounce of
dripping quite hot in a stewpan, lay the
, steak in it, and brown. allowing about
az minutes for each side. This gives
the meat rich flavor and improves the
color of the sauce. Cut one onion in
rings and fry them with the meat when
the first side is Drowned, being careful
not to burn, or there will be a bitter
flavor. When brown, pour the fat off, and
add half carrot, half a small turnip
and stalk of celery, all cut into slices,
and bunch of herbs (parsley, thyme
and marjoram, and bay leaf all tied in
a bunch), and half a pint of stock or
water. Cover the saucepan very closely,
and set it near the fire where it will
only gently cook or stew for So minutes.
About ten minutes before serving mix
half "a tablespoonful of -four with half a
tablespoonful of catchup; stir it in and
bring it to the boil just to cook the
flour; then stand it where it will keep
hot. Take about an inch of carrot and
cut into thin slices and then into strips,
or matches, as they are called, and cook
them in boiling sailed water for five or
six minutes cut similar pieces from
piece of turnip and cook for four or five
minutes. Strain and keep hot At the
same time cut the fat from the beef into
squares and cook them carefully in a
slow oven for five minutes. Dish the
steak on a hot dish, arrange piles of the
vegetables alternately on it, with an
atom of finely chopped parsley on the
turnip. Place the pieces of fat in the
center; strain the gravy round.
The vegetables in the stew have part
ed with their flavor and must not be
used for garnishing.
