ART IN THE HOUSEHOLD.
Valuable Hints Concerning the Hang
ing, Drying and Arrangement
of Lnce Curtains.

Hanging lace curtains and draping
them is severe strain on anyone ex
cept professional. The work done
by the professional is often not so
satisfactory as that done by the am
ateur, as the work of the former is
often too stiff and SLOPPY looking to
suit anyone with an eye for graceful
lines and effects. If the curtains are
new they are often easier to manage
than the old ones which have been
carelessly stretched. In stretching
curtains too much care cannot be
taken in getting them straight and
even. If the curtains have decided
pattern, particularly in the border, it
is wisest to put pair together on
the frame. Pin corresponding points
in the pattern together at close in
tervals, and see that the edges are
even and the same. Much hard work
can be saved by these precautions
and a much more satisfactory piece
of work can be done.
There is tendency just now toward
the plain muslin ruffled curtain hang
ing in straight lines from the top of
the window to the sill. These are
very dignified looking curtains and
look best in room furnished along
the strong colonial lines. They are
used alike in parlor, dining-room and
bed-chamber. Many people of ex-
tremely good taste have the curtains
of an entire floor just alike, and many
persons of unlimited means select the

them. They may not come right the
first time, but with a little time and
perseverance you viii. soon be an expert
and find curtain draping pleasant and
satisfactory piece of work.
The lace curtains which have been
in use so many years will probably be
used and liked by many for genera
tions to come. just now the artists

the water flowing against their sunk
en- blades, would slowly revolve, and,
of course, every revolution of the
wheels would cause the rope to wind
itself around the axle. With each
turn of the rope the boat would neces-
sarily be drawn forward and up the
streams; so, by the effect OF the con-
tinued winding, it would gradually
rise and rise till it reached the place
where the current ceased to exert so
much power. There it would be made
fast again, until the rope could be dis
engaged from the cylinder and coiled,
ready for use when needed. Then the
man would cut loose, seize his paddle
or pole, and work away till the next
rapid was reached, when he would
start off with his rope and repeat the
operation described above.
This process is wearisor- with o

ment did nothing more, it would at

Siyaprasad on Jainism. The jams

even insects, sometimes wearing a
handkerchief over the mouth to pre-
vent any living creature being breath

tenderness will prove In the long run
fatal TO its possessors. handlcapping

points to the jams:
Notwithstanding the opposition, il
