BUSTING FURNITURE.
Feather Busters Should Not he Used,
Because There Are other and
Far Better Ways.

Dust is always grief Of mind to the
careful housewife, who, like the yirtu-
Gus woman Of holy writ, looketh we'll
to the ways OF Der household.
1t hath all seasons for its own, and
the only way to conquer it is to pursue
it steadily a feather duster is an
abomination except for the tops Of pic
lures, etc, since it only stirs up the dust
from one spot in order to allow ii to set
tie on another, while wiping with a
damp cloth, which in any but judicious
hands is apt to be wet one, is too apt
to smear the furniture. All furniture
should be busted regularly, with due
regard to the corners, where most of
the dust accumulates.
The best thing for carved furniture
is soft, thick paint brush, which will
get into all the intcrstices Of the pat
tern. When these are clogged take an
other brush, wet with kerosene oil, 10
clean them out. After using The oil
rub dry with a soft cloth. Fannelette
makes the best dust clothes, and
squares OF it are row sold ready
hemmed for the purpose in our large
stores.
For highly-polished surfaces use
Chamois skin. And be sure to keep your
chamois clean. 1t can be washed with
very little trouble, only be sure to hang
it up carefully to dry, wrnging well,
and then pulling into shape, The bam-
boo beater is the best thing for rugs
and portieres, but it is useless to beat
upholstered furniture. A stiff whisk
| should be used, and ali crevices should
be well brushed out and the lint and
dust brushed OFT after this is done. II
is wonderful how much dust tufted
chair can hold-no wonder maid and
mistress alike wonder where the dust
comes from, for summer, winter
whether it blows in at the open window
or Sits up through furnace fues; like
the grass of the poem, it comes creep
ing everywhere" and finds a lodgemen'
in every inch of space exposed.
Now that bookcases with glass door:
are no longer fashionable, books are
usually open to the dust, and need sys
tematic and careful attention to pre-
serve them from damage, They shoulC
be taken from the shelves at least one,
or twice month, and wiped with a soft
dry cloth, which should be shaken on
of the window repeatedly during tn,
work of busting. Remember alway!
that in brushing dust from an objec
you scatter it, but wiping it off with I
cloth you gather it up and remove it al

fatal condolences, for the air was one
that anybody would be apt to warble.
He considered a moment and deter

Working his way through the thick

where the mill stood and went delib-

of means and leisure taking an outing.
At the same moment Laport saw pro-
truding from the grass almost at his
f2et the circular form of an old mill
stone and, with a feeling of helpless.
ness, nc sat down upon it.
A minute had not passed when he
was aware that some one was ap.

with regard to Laport, but he made
one or two miscalculations about his
own movements, and as the gov
crnors special efforts were directed to
his capture, stimulated no doubt by the
chagrin on having been so successfully
dupcd lhe having learned that his
guest was unauthorized and unknown
in the New York newspaper ofice),
one of the best detectives in the cOun-
try got upon his track and followed
him to Louisville, Ky, when the trail
was a week old. From this point he
traced him into western Tennessee
and there the pursuit ended. Kent
had disappeared from the surface Of
the earth. What is remarkable about
this part of the hunt is that nothing
occurred publicly to awaken the sus-
picion that Bench and Kent were the
same person.
Laport's escape from the prison was
effected with but slight variations as
it had been planned for him, and there
was nothing in his methodical execu-
tion Of the plan but a grim and un-
eventful determination accompanied
by silent apprehension, until he ar
rived as arranged at the old mill, and
there the whole character of the pro-
ceedings changed as if by magic and
began to wear the aspect of sixteenth
century romance.
While yet some fifty feet away from
the mill and hidden in the brush, he
listened and distinctly heard female
voices of merriment coming from the
other side. His heart sank. Some pic
niclIing party had taken possession Of
the secluded retreat and cut off his
last chance There had been no pro-
vision for this contingency in Kent's
plan. While Laport stood listening
to the bursts of laughter and subdued
screams that mingled with the voices
of men in some kind of sport, he dis
tinctly heard some one singing the
strains of Home, Sweet Home" in a

WALLPAPER DRAPERY.
dOws aud Doors Can Be Made
Of Remnants.

A novel and decorative use for the
surplus paper remaining after the walls
are finished is making vallanccs and
lambrequins for the windows aud doors
of a room. A recently completed suite
Of rooms shows examples Of this idea
in styles appropriate to the decorative
features of each apartment; no poles
are used, and the continued line wall
pattern across the window and deor
openings is singularly appropriate and
effective.
The practical part OF the work is sim
pie enough. The wall paper is pasted
to cheesecloth or sheeting, and cut out
to the desired shape, the trimming be-
ing fluting or ruching of the same stuff,
with pipes or jabots at discretion. The
cornices of light pine are covered with
cloth-lincd paper, and are given a touch
