Sending Money in Letters.

An old post office inspector says: "Money never should be incloseG n let ters for transmission through the mails. In the first place, it is unnecessary to do so, because money orders are so cheap; and, in the second place, money in letter offers constant temptation to those who handle mail. It is practice ably impossible to place money in let ter so that the postal clerk into whose hands the letter falls will not instantly detect it. Paper money has peculiar odor unlike anything else on earth, and the clerk who is dishonest uses his sense of smell in spotting valuable letters rather than the sense of touch."

WOMAN AND HOME.
THE SEWING ROOM.
Every Housekeeper should Insist upol
 Having One Arranged.


 Every Housekeeper should Insist Upon
 Having One Arranged.
 Have you room which you keep es. pecially for sewing? If you have not. l would advise you to arrange for one without delay, for it can be obtained at very trifing cost, while the comfort 1t affords cannot be reckoned.
 A large room is not needed for this purpose, and, in fact, small one Is more desirable; for in it all the appli- ances of work can be kept more easily at hand. Care should be taken, how ever, that the light is not obstructed by window hangings, and shades, arranged so that they can be raised to the full height of the window, are all the cur tains necessary.
 A low chair is best to sew in, and if 1t be rocker, so much the better, while some people use their piazza chairs for this purpose during the winter months.
 To hold up the arms while cutting, even for short time, is extremely fatiguing, and for this reason the cut ting table should be low, and should also be on casters, so that 1t can be moved at will.
 The little cutting tables that are sold in the large dry goods stores are very convenient for they have one edge marked off in inches, like tape meas ure, and can be folded up and put away when the cutting is over.
 Besides the sewing machine, the room should contain scrap basket, a rag bag, a pattern bag, chest of drawers, which can be made from an old bureau, and two or three footstools. A small covered board, for pressing, is, of course, necessity in this room, while fatiron, an iron holder, and iron rest should accompany the board, and it is well to have an oil or gas stove in the room, so that the iron can be heated without frequent trips to the kitchen. Of course, if you have an old discard ed extension table. it will be found a valuable addition to the sewing-room, especially when cutting out large gar ments, because for this purpose you re- quire table at least three feet in width. and five feet or more in length. If you find it necessary to employ Q seamstress, to help out with the fam. fly sewing, she will fully appreciate this secluded nook, while as for busy imam ma," when she has bit of important sewing which must be done, and she wishes to be free from domestic cares for awhile, in order to finish it, she will indeed hail this room as welcome re- l treat.-N. Y. Weekly.

blossoms drop of. the little stump must be left on the vine, as the next year similar bunch of buds will grow out of the center of the same stump. This plant is easily propagated from well-matured leaf, but it's growth is very slow, three years being required to form sufficient strength of vine to bear blossoms. It thrives in partial shade in soil of turfy, sandy loam, and it must have good drainage. The matter of drainage is very important, as this plant does not like repotting or being disturbed in sny way. The soil may be strengthened by removing some of the old portion and filling up the pot with fresh well-enriched earth. American Agriculturist.

Twice Within Month Southern Railway
 Train Is Robbed in Alabama.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Jan. 22.-For the second time within a month three un- known masked men last night held up train No. 35 of the Southern railway, near Berry station, 70 miles west of Birmingham, and robbed the Southern Express Co.'s car. The scene of the rob- bery was within mile of the others, and they were almost identical in every details. When the train reached se- cluded spot near North river, three miles from Berry, it was halted and the express car doors were broken open and pistols thrust into the express messengers face. His safe keys were secured and the local safe quickly opened and rifled of its contents, which the express officials say amounted to $50. There is no doubt in the minds of the express and railroad officials that both robberies were committed by the same parties, and that the robbers re- side in the mountains near the scene, which is the old stamping grounds of the once famous Burrows gang of train r.0hherS

PLANTS AND FLOWERS.

How to Obtain Good Results with the
 Popular Wax Plant.
 One of the most satisfactory house plants is the Hoya carnosa. popularly known as the wax plant. Its large glossy leaves are very beautiful when sponged and kept free from dust. The buds of the Hoya form in the joint be- tween the stem and the leaf one year before it blooms. The first sign of the bud is a little crooked stem, turned down, with small head at the end that looks like a snakes head; the second year this head raises up and the buds expand, forming cluster of five sided waxen Jumps, each on the end of a stem. When opened, a pretty five pointed velvet star, bright as with dew, is delight to the eye. When these

 Still more elegant and costly are the creations in tapestry. which work is more in vogue than ever for the backs and seats of chairs, as well as for cush- ions. This autumn brings new impor. tations rich in Watteau and Boucher figures exquisitely wrought in guar. ter-stitch, and though filling in" is a somewhat tedious process the centuries have proved that in tapestry, at least, "a thing of beauty is joy forever"
 The pillow has, indeed, come to be one of the most important factors in solving the always difficult problen' of what to give men friends; and the unique and pretty conceits in cigar rib hons have become so popular that the finest shops now keep 8 supply of the ribbons In stock.

 Special provision has also been made for the men of yachting propensities' On different colors (blue preferred) o1 heavy Bedford cord or denim yacht in full sail cut out of white canvas is artistically appliqued. Fluffy little white clouds are embroidered above and swelling waves below.
 There are many other new and artis' tic designs for both cushions and table spreads in denim and the more expen. sive corded goods, which, however, are not to be embroidered in the old way, but are outlined instead with a new car. nation braid over-handed on. Some. times plain braid is used in combina' tion with the carnation.-Chicago Rec ord.

 There was never season when more novel and charming designs in the way of decorative art work invited the CO., operation of clever fingers through the long and lovely lamp-lit hours of Q winters evening at home.
 It has not been forgotten that, to men and women alike, anything new in the way of pillow is always de. clded acquisition. One of the most striking among many new designs for these luxurious necessities is a cush. ion covered in yellow satin, beautiful for the same reason that Japanese dccora. tions are always so irresistible-the in. applicable charm of the fantastic: for over this glistening yellow surface arc scattered merry little imps and darkies indulging in all sorts of antics; climb. ing ladders, jumping poles, etc. The process of making them is very sim. pie one.

Three Men and Their Wives in Collision to
 Defraud Uncle Sam.
 PERRY, Ok, Jan. 22.-Frauds have been brought to light in the United States land office here by the arrest of John Hulka and Savannah Hulka, liv- ing north of here, which duplicate three men and their wives. Hulka is the owner of fine body of land in Ok lahoma, which prevented him taking government land; so, just before the opening of the strip he sued his wife for divorce and she took land on Red Rock creek. They live together now, although not welded, so that each can hold land. Both were arrested for adultery. Another case has been brought to light at Morrison, where Joe Dunham was divorced from his wife for the same purpose; also John Prucha, on Black Bear creek.

Expedition of Englishmon Want0nly meo~
 sacred in West Africa.
 LONDON, Jan. 22.-A dispatch from Lagos. capital of the British West Africa colony of that name, gives tho details of the massacre of the British expedition under Consul-G General s. R. Phillips by the inhabitants of Benin City early during the present month. The party was unarmed and was pro ceeding to Benin City in order to make a request for palaver, or conference, with King Obbeah. The nine officers were unarmed in order to impress the king with the peaceful character of their mission and over 200 na- tive carriers were taken with the party to propel their canoes and carry presents intended for the king. After proceeding up the river the expedition landed at spot about 15 miles from Benin City and the carriers were sent ahead through the dense jungle, the officers following; Five miles from Benin City the officers suddenly came upon a narrow defile which was filled with the dead carri- CTS, who were fearfully mutilated. Almost immediately afterward the of ficers and their servants were sur rounded and attacked by hundreds of savages armed with guns, cutlasses,, spears and clubs and in few minutes all the members of the party excepting Boisragon and Locke were killed. Of the 25O carriers only one escaped.

MILWAUKEE, Jan. 22.-Father Hells- tern, deposed priest of St. Mary's Catholic church at Barton, Wis, has filed suit for $50, 900 for alleged islander against Archbishop Kalzer of the dio- cese of Milwaukee. The proceeding is without precedent and if a compromise is effected it must first be sanctioned by the pope.
