HOUSEHOLD DoN'Ts.
Ordered and Truly well-Fur-
nished House.

Truth publishes few ''don'ts" that
might well be recommended to the
young housekeeper:
Don't ornament your table in a mixed
color of embroideries. The well-ap-
pointed board is one in which tone is
well carried out, not only in the needle
work, but in the floral decorations.
Don't dress your walls with conflict
ing colors. A fine background for pic
lures is a cartridge paper of a solid
tint, which, as foil, will show off any
,ubject which tends as decoration.
Don't buy piece of furniture be-
huse il is zone of the latest styles"
uhe artistic home-maker knows that
fashionable furnishings are often
crude, and that an atmosphere may be
given by the homeliest of appoint
ments, provided the placing is a right
one. Don't select covers in which there
is overelaboration of design. Quiet
ones are always the best; they do not
intrude, are restful, and generally hold
their own.
Don't let your rug be one of loud pat
tern; remember IL is the foundation OF
your color scheme, and often the charm
Of your room.
Don't serve your food on china dishes
of different make; give the pure white
ware. with the ordinary gilt band, a
precedence above all others. Let your
decorations be in your damask, en-
broideries and flowers.
Don't let your kitchen be a work
room only. For the convenience of
your maid, let there be an easy-chair;
in ore corner put looking-glass, in
the other a timepiece. If there is an
unused door, make il pretty closet
by setting in the framework some three
or four shelves, which, when painted,
make a tidy place for odds and ends of
table ware.
Don't decorate your rooms with pho
tographs, either OF your friends, of
actresses, or of people you don't know.
In every house there should be a folio
large enough TO hold these treasures.
Don't hang your pictures too high
Or too low; recollect the level OF the eye
IS the correct guide. Don't fill up your
walls with poor prints; one good etch-
ing is worth n dozen such.
Don't purchase furnishings merely
for their own beauty. Bear in mind
the room in which they are TO be placed,
and above all their relation TO other eff
fects.
Don't buy over-ornamental pots for
your plants; they should serve as foils
rather than attract too much attention
IN themselves.

FORTRESS OF THE HEART.
Al Impenetrnble Shield That Gives

ship was ever more thoroughly pro-
tected by its armor of steel than is the
human heart by its physical covering.
Some people are more easily read than
others, but the most frank and open
countenance often shields its secrets
and romances from other eyes. The
Englishman believes that mans house
is his castle. 1t is the universal belief
that a mans heart is his fortress.
There doors are shut that no guns or
machines of war can batter down; the
windows are impenetrable. Yet with

happy, and not ray of light reach the
outer world. Or the exterior may pre-
serve its gay and careless appearance
when all within is dark and full OF
mourning. No one can tell what is GO
ing on in any others breast. How
careful, therefore, should we be. A
single sharp word or thoughtless re-
mark may touch the quick and bring
untold pain.
But it is not always thus. Some day
there comes a time and friend, for
whom the doors are thrown wide back
and the windows opened TO the light.
There is full and free narration OF all
that has gone on. 1t is good for the
heart, for the confession is light and

his head into the tent. "Take it easy

With gasp OF relief the mate
slouched his hat over his eyes and hur-
ried away from the spot as though a
ghost were pursuing him. He did not
stop until he had joined Bowers, who at
once noticed his disordered appearance,
and exclaimed:

tongue, and he said, hurriedly:
"Scott is the young chap | got the
papers from, and the other was second
mate of the vessel with me. We must
get out of this quickl"
Right We are. They must hey come
over from Skaguay on the boat yester-
day. 'Twouldn't do fer them ter see
yer 'roun here. They'd be on ter yer

Rider, as they started Oft through the
