PRETTY TABLE LAMP.
Now to Obtain a Useful and Orna-
mental Piece of Art,


The Illustration shows the design for
} table lamp that can be made by most
any woman who is handy with tools.
The materials which will be required
10 make it are seemingly the least
worthy, and an old box, some burlaps or
bagging such as furniture comes
packed in, few thin sheets of stove
pipe iron and some nails and paint.
In the first place, obtain a box at a
grocery store such as canned goods are
packed in. carefully break it apart,
taking care not to split any of the thin
boards. OF these boards make box
eight inches square and twelve inches
high; the wood used for the top and
bottom should be thicker than that of
which the sides are made, and in the
top cut a round hole, large enough to
admit metal lamp fount. A rim
around the top edge of the fount will,
If the hole is made the right size, pre-
vent it from falling into the box.
All over the top and sides of the
box fasten ordinary burlaps with
liquid glue, and when il is thoroughly
dry give the baggng a few successive
coats of light olive green paint. Sand
paper the buraps before applying the
last coat, so an even and smooth sur
face may be obtained.
Bind the edges of the box with strips
of sheet iron. allowing about three
quarters of an inch of metal to show on
a side. Fasten the iron on with large
Dval-headed brass upholsterers' tacks,
driven at equal distances apart.
On sheet of paper draw the pat
tern shown on one side of the box and
rut pieces from the thin iron to work
out the pattern on each side. Tack
these pieces on with good-sized oval
headed iron carpet tacks and then give
all the metal work a coat or two of
ivory black paint, thinned with japan
drefer.

MISS NELLIE ELY.
tAppointed Colonel on the Staff of Ten
nessee's Governor)

Ruth Whiteside, of Shelbyvlle, Tenn,
who was noted in her day for being
one of the souths most beautiful and
cultured women.
An aunt of Col. Ely was the famous
southern beauty, Miss Maggie White
side, now Mrs. Judge Bearden, whose
fame as bell was coeXtensive with
the south in antebellum days. Another
aunt of this gifted and accomplished
officer was Mrs. James Mather. who
is well remembered in New York So
ciety.
Col. Ely has been the leading spirit
in the chief military functions of this
state since her debut. She received the
best educational advantages and sup
plemented them by close application to
the finer arts.
She has been social favorite wher-
ever her presence has been felt. AT
Richmond. Va; at Dallas, Tex; at
st. Louis and other points all who have
come within the radius of her influence
have succumbed to her wonderfully fas-
cinating personality.
Gov. Taylor has known her since
childhood. Warm friendship has ex-
listed between the governor and the
coloners father, Mr.. Jesse Ely, for
years. Her appointment is perhaps due
in some measure to this friendship,
but chiefly to the social triumph she
achieved on the occasion of the late
reunion ball, when, as vice president
of the club, she devoted all her ener-
giles to its success. She wore neither
jewelry nor flowers upon this occasion,
but appeared in u plain gown of red
satin. Her beauty, however, with her
native refinement and modesty of de-
meanor, made her conspicuous when
least she sought to be. It was on this
occasion that Gov. Taylor announced
his intention of commissioning her a
colonel.
She is brunette of medium stature.
In her every movement there is grace,
and in every glance of her large, bril-
liant eyes there is that peculiar charm
30 noted in the southern type.-N. Y.
