CHINA PAINTING HINTS.

Description Of Sone Very Popular
styles " Oeeeratton.
Within the past few years the art OF
china decoration has been most pop
ular pastime and a profitable business
to many.
The mode OF coloring Is simplified and
much improved with the advance in
this work, and the demand il for bet
ter class of designs than formerly were
placed before the public. they being for
the most part decidedly crude and mar
1istic.
Here is . conventional design for
decorating a set of plates; either break
fast, soup, dinner. dessert or fruit
plates. and a design for decorating a
tea caddy. biscuit jar, rose jar. orevena
tray. The design for plates can be cas-
lily painted by an experienced person. as
1t requires simple tinting. and the shad-
ing of the cut will guide one in shading
the colors from dark TO light.
One desirable scheme Of color is car
ried ont in painting the darkest scrolls
in deep purple. The next lighter is
carnation No. /. and the lightest scrolls
in silver yellow. The scrolls should be
all shaded, starting from the center
of the design with the darkest shade
and gradually fading out to pale
shade ut the top OF the scrolls.
Another style Of decorations is as fol-
lows: Tint the darkest scrolls with
carmine, shading to light at the tips
Of the scrolls. The next lighter scrolls
should be shaded with grass green. and
the lightest in a delicate tint Of sky
blue. There are many other harmon

l said l would, of course, and MOTTO
ing that the bottle smelled strongly Of

man. "Yo' might call it hurt, or yo'
might call it wrecked fur life. Least

no tree fell on him. He jest got emery.
Jim did,"
you mean he got dissatisfied with
things?"
"Mebbe I do, sab. Thar's about a
hundred folks a day cum along yere on
them bicycles, and fur a var past Jim
has sassed every one of 'em. He never
took TO the bike nohow. One day about
two weeks ago, arter Teller had got
off his bike and hit Jim on the nose,

Pop, thar's gwine to be calamity

better stay in the house!'
What's the calamity?' sez l.
"'Never yo' mind. but yo'r son Jim
ar gwine to git even with the hull

old man, "kase Jim ar great hand to

supper he was missin'. l didn't go out
to hunt for him, and mebbe it was nine

A PLATE PATTERN.

ious combinations of color which will
suggest themselves to the artist.
In painting the yellow narcissus de-
sign more skill is requisite in order to
shade the petals and cups to prevent
q fat appearance. One must use his
own judgment, following the shading
OF the drawing az nearly as possible.
The petals are OF bright yellow. In
painting them use silver yellow and
mixing yellow. The cups Of the flow
ers are tinged with deep yellow. and
should be shaded at the base as we'll
as the leaves with brown green.
The foliage Of this plant Is naturally
stiff. and is of a rich green tone. Use
grass green, apple green and brown
green in painting this. 1t Is always
we'll to use a combination Of greens
rather than a single shade. as in ma
ture one finds that leaves are quite va
ried on the same plant. The effect of
work thus executed is much more pro-
fessional in appearance, point all
china painters aim to attain.-N. b.

Observation-Disclosures

Having some business to transact at
Pine Hill, we left the Gulch at an early
hour last Wednesday morning, and had
proceeded as far az Dog Creek, and
were galloping along with feeling
that life was worth the living. when a
highwayman stepped from the bushes
and ordered US to hands up. AS he had
the drop on us. we didn't hesitate 20
comply with his somewhat surly re-
quest. He went through us for $11
in cash aud our guns, and detained us
for half an hour or SO. This delay was
our undoing, and we blame the robber
for not being a handler man at his
business. We had just reached the
forks of the Grass Valley road when
we ran plump into dozen cowboys
belonging to the three b. B. B. ranch.
They discovered almost at once that
we were not armed and closing in upon
us, we were made prisoners. In order
that we should indulge in no false
hopes, the gang announced that we had
only a few minutes to live, and that a
rope and a limb would be the manner
o. our taking off.
We discovered from the outset that
we had no friends in that crowd. Two
Ct them were at some pains to inform
us that they were carrying chunks OF
lead which we had fired into them, and
the remainder owed US grudge on
general principles. A rope was thrown
around our neck, we were led to a
nearby tree, and there were good rea-
sens for believing that the greatest
family newspaper of America would
socn be without head. We naturally
expostulated and protested, but it was
mountain ozone thrown away. They
were not even gentlemen enough to ar
que the point.
When all was ready for the cheerful
task of pulling US up to the limb the
gang got over its hurry and concluded
to toy with US. A speech was de-
manded, and though we were not feel
ing at our best, we gave them one, or,
rather, an address. 1t was our new adj
dress on the Pilgrim Fathers. and this
was its first delivery. Our voice didn't
do us justice for the first two or three
minutes, and we were somewhat both

FIRST SILVER WEDDING.

4 Custom That Dates Hack to the
Reign of hugues Capet.
The fashion of silver weddings dates
back to the reign OF Hughes Capet
king of France in 9s7. says Vogue.
Once, as Hughes was arranging his
uncle's affairs, he found on one of the
estates a servant who had grow n gray
in the service of his relative. He had
been such friend of his masters that
he was almost looked upon as one of the
family.
On the farm with this old man was
also serving woman who was az old
as he, and also unmarried, and who had
been the most devoted and hard work
ing Of the women servants Of the kings
uncle. When the king heard these
praises Of the two. he ordered them to
be brought before him. and said to the
woman:
"Your service IL great. greater than
this mans, whose services were great
enough, for the woman always finds
work and obedience harder than man,
and therefore will give you reward.

oh. the PITY Of IL.

One of the best repartees on record
is that of Foote, the actor. Dining
with some friends, heated dispute
urose between himself and young
nobleman. The latter sought to dis
parage Foote by asking him what his
father was.
"a tradesman," said Foote.
"Then, sir, it's pity he did not make
you one."
"And, pray. let me ask. what was your
father, my lord?"
my father, Mr.. Foote, was gentle
man."

The bow and ends are doubled. and

ends and makes them part of the trim

interline their ribbon sashes with
heavy cambria to give them still more

thick and is sewed between the edges

These sashes are made of black and
