small streams fed by abundant springs
traverse it. There are failing
ponds, meeting all requirements for
the animals of infantry, cavalry, and
artillery camps. Looking forward to
the occupation of the park as camp

provided eight artesian wells in order
that it might not be necessary for the
troops to use surface water for drink
ing purposes.
The natural features of the park pre-
sent every element of topography
likely to be met with in actual cam
paigning. There are fields and forests,
each of great extent, low ridges and
precipitous elevations, some clear of
woods and some in timber. The
Chickamauga River, with its steep
banks, affords every needed facility
for instruction in bridge building. The
roads of the park system extend along
the crest of Missionary Ridge for eight
miles and cross Lookout Mountain
through the field of the ''Battle Above
the Clouds" All the roads by which
the Union and the Confederate armies
approached and left the various fields
within the limits of the park have been
highly improved, and give easy access
to every portion of the seven battle
fields about Chattanooga which are
reached by the mileage system of the
park. These are Chickamauga, Wau-

General Sherman at the north end of

Mrs. S. Il. Rorer on 'Proper Cooking
for the Nursery in the Ladies Home
Journal. Bananas should always be
cooked. unless they are very ripe and
the skins quite black. To bake ba-
mana nicely you should have porce-

Brass Clothes-Trees.

Brass clothes-trees are late addi-
tions in the furniture shops. They
have the advantage of weight, which
gives them stability, quality often
lacking in the article. With them are
seen, too, standing brass towel-racks.
1t has been supposed that this form of
the rack was practically eliminated
from use, and to have such made OF
brass does not commend itself espe-
cially. Wet towels, thrown over the
brass rack, would soon work injury
alike to themselves and their support.

His methods of doing business were

vantage over another. In accordance
with his peculiar sense of justice,
therefore, his stable rules were such
that when man came to hire a horse
he was obliged to take the one nearest
the door, and naturally the style OF
animal he got depended entirely on
chance.
This unusual procedure attracted at

Glass spoons are sold at the drug
