ARTISTIC AND sERVIcEABLE.
Variety of Useful and Ornamental Trines for Lovers of
 Emery.

A dainty pincushion is made in the following way: Make a cushion about four inches wide and eight inches long stuffing the bran or sawdust in very tightly to give a round appearance Cover with light blue satin: over the upper part lay piece of bolting cloth on which flowers or a jewel pattern has been embroidered in co.orcd flo. The edge of the cushion is finished with a double ruffie of satin, cut on the bias and wide enough to conceal the lower part of cushion. Over the ruffle should fall frill of 1ilmy white face.
 To make pretty shaving pad, cut two pieces of green felt into the form of maple leaf, somewhat larger than the natural size, and place between them leaves of tissue paper cut the same shape as the felt; hold in place by narrow ribbon passed through the base of the leaves and tied with bow.
 A nice lamp mat is made of square of green felt, with maple leaves of the felt fastened to every corner. The leaves are veined with yellow silk, and green ribbon an inch wide conceals the edges of the felt.
 A pretty toothbrush holder is made of long piece of whit linen turned uE at the bottom to form 6 pocket This holds the brushes and is lined with oilcloth, the outside being ornamented ty a design worked in pale blue and pink flo. The upper part of the piece of linen is rounded off and folded over so as to' conceal the slightly protrud- ing ends of fhe brushes. and has the word. "Toothbrushes" worked upon it in light blue flo. The edges of the toothbrush holder are finished in button hole stitch or bound with nar- row light blue ribbon.
 Auseful and pretty fancyworlc apron is made of white art denim and is about half the length of the skirt when finished, being turned up about nine inches at the bottom to form three pockets; in these are kept thread, scissors, etc. On the pockets IS stamped some conventional design, 10 be worked with colored flo. The top of the apron is finished with hem half an inch in width, with draw string inserted. d.-Housekeeper.

GLASS AND CHINA.
A Few Suggestions CoDcerrtns Selection Of Table HEi
 Pantry Pieces.

One of the first things to provide for, both in the kitchen and pantry, and in fact everywhere else in the house, is a place for everything and everything should be kept in its proper place; there should be no litt,e corners or shelves where broken, cracked or clipped glass, china or other debris could be stuffed ES'ay. The next es- sential is that list should be kept Of every possession. This list should be gone over twice a year, especially that portion of it which pertains to the china and glass, and when necessary added to at such times; an appreciable quantity need, however, never be add ed should each article be replaced as soon as it is broken.
 To-day there is no excuse for ugly china or glass: good and pretty things can be bought for as little money as bad and ugly things. In selecting china the plain white is most serviceable and elegant and has this advantage that should one or more pieces become broken or chipped-hothing detracts more from the appearance of table than clipped china-they may be read fly replaced. With decorated china this is next to impossible and many hand some set is spoiled beyond redemption because the vegetable dishes or other important parts of the service are broken and must be replaced by odd pieces that in no way fit or harmonize with the major part of the set.
 Plain white china insures cleanliness and one never tires of it as one does of elaborate patterns and colors.
 The glass for everyday use should be as inexpensive as possible, for while there is no need of "best" china serv- ice there certainly must be some "best" glass held in reserve for special occa- sions. For small family a dozen tumblers for everyday use is generally ample to leave out at one time--with but few glasses and little glassware generally to look after at time there is less likelihood of breakage.
 There is no reason why with even the smallest expenditure the table ap- pointments should not be attractive. Nice things do not necessarily mean expensive ones.-Housewife.

LIGHTNING KILLS WILD BOARS
Five Out of Six Imported from the Black Forest Struck Together
 in Pike County.

Five of six wild boars imported from
 the Black Forest in Germany at a cost of $100 each were lately killed by light. ming at Porter's Lake. Pike county, Pa They were brought over by Weissbrod & Hess, of Philadelphia, and were in- tended for breeding purposes. and il was proposed to turn their young loose in the forest, reports the New York Sun.
 The animals had only just arrived and were still iu their boxes. which were piled under a tree. When the storm was at it's height a bolt descend ed, striking the tree and running down it to the animals. One in box on top of the others escaped, but those below were instantly killed It is said their places will be supplied by other impor- tatiOns.
 The propagation of wild boars in this region is not new experiment. Some wears ago Otto Flock. wealthy broker of New York and London. whose sum- mer home was on the west side of the Shawangunk mountain. not far from Port Jervis. turned out severa, wild bears in his mountain park. For a time they thrived until at last they broke through the inclosure and committed depredations on the neighborine farms. The farmers turned cut with dogs and guns. but were never able 10 capture any of them. They were hunt ed day and night. They finally tooku their abode in Sullivan county, where hunters tried in vain 10 kill them. Judge W. H.

PROCEEDINGS OF
LOWER HOUSE

There was nothing spectacular in
the House of Representatives yester-
day. There were no floodgates of
oratory unlocked, no forensic fireworks
ignited The lawmakers contented
themselves with attending strictly to
business, and letting grand-stand plays
and home-runs severely alone.
The memory of the Monday with it's
hoped-for sensation, which did not ma
terialize, was still fresh in their minds.
1t was not until II o'clock that the
business of the day was entered upon.
but when it was under Roadway things
moved along with rush.
The chief matter of interest, from a
public standpoint, during the forenoon,
was the consideration of the payroll
of the tug EIeu. The defender of the
old boat was none other than Emme-
luth, who said that while he had, at
one time, been opposed to the Eleu,
upon more mature thought he felt she
had not yet outlived her, usefulness.
Emmeluth gained his point by the
sweat of his jaw. After talking for
several minutes he had the legislators
so snake-charmed that nearly every
hand went up, and his point was
gained, tHdL Oh Keeping Ibc C$icu Ou
the Government payroll.
In the afternoon several heated de-
bates followed one another in quick
succession. The fish inspector came In
for the hardest knocks. Several Of the
native statesmen brought out their TOM
ahawks when the matter was preached.
Ayelett, especially, INDUCED in caustic
criticisms. There has always been a
strong feeling among the natives that
an Hawaiian should hold the position
of inspector, and Ayelett yesterday in
timated as much.
It will be seen In looking over the
revised salary list that Governor Dole's
figures are not being made to resemble
a cooked hat, as 1t was said by certain
individuals they would be on previous
occasions. The figures of the Governor
of Hawaii are in many instances &C.
cepted without argument. and those
that are changed are altered only
slightly.
If the Home Rulers keep up the pace
they have set for themselves yester-
day, 1t viii not be more than two weeks
before everything is pau.
