THE HOUSEHOLD.
Fashions In Household Linens-Ad-
Unstable Plate Litter - Oys-
tiers I'm Dishes of Ice.

There are fashions In household lin
ems as well rs In gowns. yet the most
elegant women are apt to make their
selections from staple products which
are always In favor. For example, the
ball and snowdrop patterns I'm table
linen are deemed standard by all house
wives. Plain linens are also much In
vogue. Many Of the handsomest plain
cloths have n cipher or monogram en-
broidered I'm two corners Of the cloth.
There are as we'll n number Of new de
signs, the chrysanthemum being n ia
vorIte pattern. Napkins come with
ench cloth, both with hemstitched and
plain hens. Napkins should be mark
ed with the embroidered initials about
three inches from the corner. Table
cloths inserted with lace are no longer
fashionable. White ccnterpieccs have
almost entirely replaced colored de-
signs. Lace designs are, however, seen
I'm the centerpieces and doilles used on
the bare tables for luncheons. There
Is n tendency to Introduce very elabo-
rate bed linen. Both sheets and pill
lowslips are hemstltched and Inserted
with bands an inch wide, or even Wild
or, Of lace. Both pillowcases and sheets
are embroidered with the initial or
even the crest Of the owner. Even lace
trimmed sheets are used. Nothing Is
dalntier or more attractive than n pure
white bed. inexpensive bedspreads
can be made very attractive by trim
ming the sides with inexpensive heavy
cotton lace, the spread serving as well
when fashioned in this manner as a
valance

oysters In Ice Dishes.

Not only oysters, but fruits, are some
times served In receptacles made from
ice. It is possible to get molds In
which water may be frozen In saucer
form for the oyster or clam course, and
some caterers have achieved fruit bas-
kets and even excellent limitations OF
epergnes and COMFORTS. These effects
are to be noted as novelties rather than
commended. Still in the best taste Is
the oyster or clam in its shell, piled on
a mound Of nicely shaved ice, packed
In its turn on a pretty plate. Fruit,
too, arranged In a silver or crystal dish
is properly and effectively presented.
and the needed chilling can be accom-
pllshed beforehand In the refrigerator.
Occasionally, as a course at supper
party, the effect of serving oysters
from a single solid block of ice set on
a platter and surrounded with greenery
is attractive; but, when all Is said, bi-
zarre effects and too much straining
after novel and striking service are
never In good taste.-New York Post.

II is becoming more and more com
mon to line the staircase wall With
pictures. On consideration the idea is
a good one from other points Of view
than the artistic. The climb, particu-
larly Of a long, unbroken staircase, Is
to many persons an affair of minutes
and It is not at all unpleasant to be
cheered its length by some attractive
pictures. In some houses there are

piled the justice, ''the first hour Is
spent trying to understand what some
pleading lawyer is getting at In his
speech. The effort is entirely useless,
Of course, as the argument is before us

Is employed wondering how many

himself. The third hour is devoted to
as comfortable a doze as 1t is possible
to enjoy sitting upright in a chair. And
the fourth hour All, my dear young

Senator Hanna Was Broke.
Senator Mark Hanna, maker of presi-
dents, trusted by trusts and man OF
millions, was invited to get of street
car here because he could not pay his
fare. He boarded a car going from the
capitol to his residence, but could not
find cent in his clothes when the con-
ductor asked for his fare.
In the forward corner of the car sat
Senator Plat of Connecticut Hanna
hailed him for aid. Plat searched bis
pockets and finally found three pennies
and a crumpled car ticket. The con-
ductor took the latter and rang up the
fare. Hanna mopped the Derspiratlon
from his brow and remarked that 1t
was the first time he had been broke
since coming to Washington.
