BEAUTIFUL HOMES.
The Tendency of the Age Is Toward
Mural Decorations.

Probably at no time in the worlds history
has as much attention been paid to the in
terror decoration of homes as at present.
No home, no matter how humble, is without
its handwork chat helps to beautfy the
apartments and make the surroundings more
cheerful. The taste of the American people
has kept pace with the age, and almost
every day brings forth something new
in the way of picture, a draping, a
piece Of furniture or other form of mural
decoration. One of the latest Of these has
been given to the world by the celebrated
artist, Muvile, in a series of four handsome
porcelain game plaques. Not for years has
anything as handsome in this line been seen.
The subjects represented by these plaques
are American Wild Ducks, American Pleas
ant, American Quail and English Snpe.
They are handsome paintings and are es-
pecially designed for hanging on dining
room walls, though their richness and beau.
ty entitled them to a place in the parlor Of
any home. These original plaques have been
purchased at a cost of $4,000 by j. c. Hub.

brated Elastic Starch and in order to enable
their numerous customers to become posses

Submerged.

It's pretty tough tale they tell on
the Kentucky man who went to big
banquet out of the state. He had been
invited to respond to the toast "Ken-
lucky" and was expected to glitter
and glow. The feast proceeded in
great shape, one wine following the
other-punch galore-heaven knows
what else-and the gentleman from
the state imbibed with cheerful per-
sistency. His speech did not come till
the close of the banquet, and finally
the POSTMASTER rose and said: "Mr.
Bluegrass will respond to the toast
Kentucky" He made some graceful
remarks and looked around. Alas!
Mr.. Bluegrass was not visible.
"Where's Kentucky?" he demanded
of his fellow guests. "Where is Ken
tucky2"
Kentucky is under the table," was
the reply, and, sure enough, he was re-
posing under the mahogany, where not

MEDICAL HEROES UNDER FIRE
Daring Adventures of English SUR
geOns in the. Field During
the Late War In india. Ia

When the medical history Of the last
war in India is written it will prove
interesting reading. There were many
difficulties overcome and hardships en-
dured with the usual element of dam
ger. A good instance of this was when
Gen. Woodhouse was wounded early
in the war, A bullet struck him in the
thigh, passed down below the knee,
broke into pieces and lodged. The
Roentgen ray apparatus revealed the
exact conditions and it was determined
to extract the pieces. In the middle
of the operation, artificial light being
used, the Afridis crawled up and sud-
denly blo2ed into the tent, sending 10
shots through the canvas. Now that
might have been very disturbing
circumstance and apt to interfere with
the perfect application of the aseptic
form of surgery. And what hap
penedP The operation went on and
was successfully completed as if there
was no Afridi within 100 miles.
AS usual we had many examples Of
great personal bravery and devotion
to duty in the midst of danger. Sur
geon Captain Beyts arrested hem
orrhage under a very hot fire, and Sir
William Lockhart, speaking of the in
cident, said that no one ever better
merited the reward of the Victoria
cross than he. He got nothing; but
that is another story. Another med
ical officer greatly distinguished him
self, Surgeon Lieutenant Hugo.
Lieut.. Ford was dangerously wound
ed in the shoulder. The bullet cut the
artery and he was bleeding to death
when Surgeon Lieutenant V. Hugo
came to his aid. The fire was too hot
to permit of lights being used There
was no cover of any sort. 1t was at
the bottom of the cup, Nevertheless,
the surgeon struck match at the
peril of his life and examined the
wound. The match went oNt amidst
a splitter of bullets which kicked up
the dust all around, but by its uncer-
tain light he saw the nature of the in
jury. The officer had already tainted
from loss of blood. The doctor seized
the artery, and as no other ligature
was forthcoming he remained under
fire for three hours holding a mans
life between his finger and thumb.
When at length it seemed that the
enemy had broken into the camp, he
picked up the still unconscious officer
in his arms, and without relaxing his
hold, bore him to place of safety.
His arm was for many hours para
Iyzed from cramp from the effects of
the exertion of COMPRISING the ar
tery.-London Lancet.

Jamie school used to call on her. He came
one evening, just before the close of the last
term, and wore rubber overshoes. He al.
ways was afraid of catching cold. He left
these shoe protectors in the hall. jamie, by
no means sure of passing from seventh into
eighth grade, was coming his geography
from necessity, not choice, and he saw those
goloshes.
So he got the tack hammer and two tacks
and nailed through the rubber soes into the
floor. When Mr.. Principal departed an hour
later Jamie was watching him Mr.. Prinei.

his feet in his understand then he braided
himself up in the most amazing fall that
ever an educated man accomplished. The
big girl picked him up and extracted him
from his stationary footwear, but she was
shaking with laughter.
Next day Jamie, sweet seraph, drifted past
the principals desk with look of angelic
innocence on his chubby face
He paused moment.
".Who, called you?" asked the petuant
principal
"The kids called me. They called me
'rubbers' Say, Mr. Soandson, do pass?"
And the eyes of the two met for one tense
moment. Then the principal surrendered.
THesIyou pass!" he snapped.

boy cry "rubbers"
And Jamie was honest about it. He told
no one-not even when his big sister padded
him.-Chicago Chronicle.
