Of ore and shipments up to date are
somewhat in excess of what they were

Artistic House Furnishings.

Benares brass is the latest fancy for
hanging lamps, vases, jardinieres and
other decorative objects. 1t comes
either dull or bright, and is executed
in dainty traceries. At one Of the
East Indian houses it was said that
the work is done by hand with fine
sharp instruments. A favorite use of
the Benares brass is its chandeliers.
Next to the light is globe Of colored
glass richly jeweled or of the irrides
cent variety. Over that comes the out
er globe of the brass. Then there are
tall vases Of the dull brass with slen-
der necks and graceful bowls, and jar
dinieres, which have a dull CLEAN en-
riched by the etching. The bright
brass Is used mainly for smaller arti-
cles 1t contrasts nicely with other
kinds of bric-a- brac and looks especial
ly well against a background Of pure
white. Japanese bronze Is another
fancy Of the time. An endless variety
or articles Is made from this material.
A particularly effective grouping of
art objects was seen the other day at
an Oriental house, where a table filled
with the Japanese bronze was fanked
on one side by another covered with
the most beautiful Cloisonne, and on
the other by one filled with Royal
Worcester. The dark bronze made an
excellent setting of the soft tints of
the china.

School Maps In Mindanso.

While comparatively new maps OF
Singapore, Hongkong, Tokyo and
other oriental cities, showing in detail
the streets and public works, are hung
upon the walls, the youthful scholar in
Mindanao, Philippine Islands, has to
depend upon large map of the west
ern hemisphere for his information as
TO the United States. While in many
respects the maps are excellent, they
utterly fail to convey the slightest in
telligence respecting the country whose
people are now SO closely related to
them.

A Hint as to Tea.

Cups of strong brewed tea are not
to the taste of the majority of guests.
The old-fashioned practice of making
tea in large silver urns is now quite
out Of date. Tea in the smartest
houses is served from teapOts and is
made almost every ten minutes during
the afternoon. This insures the tea
being good and palatable and to the
taste of the company. A rather strong
reaction has set in against putting
cream in tea and many prefer cold
milk to thick cream; there re, this
preference should also be taken into
account or a run is made upon the hot
milk on the tables, which is not SO
desirable. These hints. small as they
arc, are worth a hostess attention"

When Kerosene Takes Fire.

In view of recent accidents it is adj
visable to remind those who use pc
troleum lamps that the one thing tc
do, if one Is upset, and the spilled
liquid catches fire, is to throw car
,et, n wooden tablecloth, rug, OF
something Of the kind. over the flames
If the wooden articles thus thrown OH
the burning spirits cover the whole
area of the fire the probability is that
they will extingulsh the flames at once.

flames can best be smothered in their
own fumes.
