LESSONS IN FRAmE-MAKlNc.
Elaborate ones MAY Be Easily Made by
Amateur Carpenters.


With a little amateur knowledge Of
carpentry, a common table, mitre.
block, a mtre-shoot. a wise and few
homely tools, frames for engravings,
etchings and photographs can be easily
made.
Prepared holdings, plain, gilt or or
namental, with pretty devices, may be
bought cheap and all ready to be glued
on Brown Holland to cover the
frames is popular with some, and is
prepared by laying it on table and
putting over it either thick card OF
thin pine board cut to fit the picture
intended for framing. The Holland,
which ought to be two inches larger
than the board should be pinned on
the under side and fastened securely
with glue when dry. An opening is
cut in it to admit the picture and
the margin that must be left to turn
under is first pinned to make it fiji
smoothly, and then glued. The frame
is finished around with narrow bit
of molding, painted white and fitted at
the corners by means of the mitre
block and shoot; the lengths for the
four sides being sawed off and trans.
ferred to the shoot, to be cut at eX-
actly the same angle. The corners
must be fastened together by brads or
headless nails, the holes for the brads
being made with an awl and afterward
filled up with a composition of whiting
and sizing. The molding ought to be
carefully rubbed over with emery-pa-
per of fine quality before being painted.
If a molding for finished frame is
desired, the process of preparation is
to thoroughly rub the material used
with emery-paper, then to wash it over
with a pipeclay and chrome-yellow
mixture, and when dry to give it
second coat and rub again with the
paper. A coating Of oil gold size must
now be applied and left on for twelve
hours, after which the molding must
be washed in clean water and strips
of goldleaf, cut 10 the desired size, put
on, the frame being freshly moistened
for each leaf. Use a brush IN pressing
the Leaf into place.
Furnishing consists in giving the
frame two or three coats of burnish
size, after which it is thoroughly
rubbed and given a washing of spirit
burrish.

Mans unw1llingness to yield to cir.
cumstances is one of his most impress
sive characteristics. Sometimes II
seems to be mere stubbornness, un
reasoning and purblind. Far more
often, however it is admirable in 0
high degree, betokening the supremacy
of mind over matter and the primacy
of man among created things. Ovel
many things man triumphs. Over
Others he may never hope to triumph
The elemental forces Of nature are be-
yond his control, observes the New
York Tribune. Before such a catas
trophe as that which has occurred ir
the Windward Isles, for example. man,
with all the knowledge of the schools
and all the resources of twentieth cen
tury civilization, is as helpless as the
cattle Of the fields and the worms OF
the dust. One witness of the destruc
tion of ST. Pierre says the people per
fshed like flies. The description IL
accurate, and its suggestion is a true
one. The flies Of an hour, the gnats
that dance in a summer sunbeam, are
not more helpless than man in the face
Of such a convulsion of nature.

: Generous Lord and Honest Farmer.

The remarkable popularity of the
Ftzwilliams in Yorkshire is not a mat.
ter of yesterday, but has existed for
several generations, and for cause. An
anecdote significant of the ways of
the house is told of the late earps
father. A farmer came to him tc
represent that his wheat had been
damaged seriously by the hounds. The
earl inquired at what he appraised the
damage. The man said $50, and il
was at once paid. After harvest the
farmer came again and said that the
wheat, far from being injured where
most trampeld on, seemed the strong

sequently he had brought back the ESQ

Automatic Match Box.

In Europe a new Kind of match boz
is rapidly becoming popular 1t con-
ssts of drum or cylinder, in which
matches are placed in such manner
that any one Of them can, when de.
sired, be moved forward by turning
small lever. When this lever Is pressed
the cylinder reyolves, and as it moves
n match falls into 4 grove, where it Is
griped by a couple OF catches. The
next moment It is thrust forward, ana
is lit by being pressed over a rough
metallic surface.
Thus, when match Is wanted, all
that is necessary Is to press lightly OF
the lever. At once the light is forth.

the match on box and then holding
it in the hand OF the risk Of burning

1t has been shown that the color OF
surface water depends both on the
character Of the neighboring vegeta.
ton and on the time that the water
remains in contact with it. Water
near steep rocks, where there are few
trees, will generally be below twenty
units in color; steep wooded or cult.
waited slopes give twenty TO fifty units;
similar, but gentler slopes, from five to
one hundred; and swampy areas, one
hundred TO five hundred, or even high.

in a town water supply the color must

seasonable Wholesome Food.

Most foods may be said to have their
season, as they are either more appro-
PIRATE at one time than another or bet
ter suited for certain conditions Of tenn
perature than foods of similar compost
ton which they should replace for the
time being.
AS a working basis In diet suitable for
all and any season of the year the
wheat grain is certainly designated by
nature as the chief dependent source
from which to obtain nutrient sub
stance.
1t is not affected by the changeable
conditions of the atmosphere as are SO
many other food substances; summer
heat does not influence its parts or
should not affect its action in the sys-
tenn when it is consumed in its many
prepared forms. Power to increase the
body temperature beyond the normal
faults or features. Considering it In
entirety, there Is no cleaner, more
wholesome food product presented for
the sustenance OF man, or one as de-
pendable in every respect when he seek
those things which will under right con-
ditions, furnish the most and best phys
biological capital.
The organic and nutritive elements of
the wheat grain are protected from the
action of the atmosphere by a coating
OF silica or flint. The seed can be eaten
raw and entire by animals with their
powerful grinders and unimpai.-ed d.
gestive functions. Man should have the
same grinding facilities in strong and
pefect set of teeth, but even then he
could not secure the same amount OF
nutrient from the grain, the digestion
would be slower and overtaxed. There

best available condition for mans use,

friends, quite in the American fashion.
Except in the American colony in Paris
such an affair was quite unheard OF,
and the difference in French and Amerf-
can social customs in this particular has
always prevented any great intimacy
between the younger circles of the So
cieties of the Fauborg Saint German
and the American colony. None but
woman of the ComteSse de Blanzay'S
unassaiiable social position would have
been able to overcome the deep-roOted
Partisan objection to such an innova-
ton, but her invitations are not to pc
sighted, and it has been generally pre-
dicted that her approval of the Ameri-
can social system expressed in this I'M
mistakable fashion will lead to its wide
adoption in the upper circles Of French
society.
In future" says LIE Figaro, ssthe most
conservative of mothers will have no ex-
cuse to refuse to accept invitations of
this kind for their daughters, and little
by little debutante balls will be given
without the guard of doing mammaS.
J. Americans who have watched with in
terest and sympathy the slow but steady
growth in this county of the chaperon
idea, and seeing to what a great extent
1t has been adopted by the weather.
and more aristocratic families of the
east have felt encouraged in the hope
that 1t would soon pass beyond the
metes and bounds of class and money
distinctions and become an established
social custom here as in foreign coun-
tries and hope that the influence of this
Madame la Comtesse de Blanzay may
be less autocratic than the Paris
papers indicate and that this wise and
sensible custom of the aristocratic for
eign society may not be SO easily
abolished.
For years wealthy Americans have
been importing their fashions in dress
and department from Europe.
Is the contrary now to be true?
Is the American custom of the free
16 love affairs to one marriage to be
adopted abroad?
If so here is phase of the American
invasion which European parents may
well view with alarm.
One of the strongest arguments ever
made for the chaperon system is book
by an American, weSterner and a
KanSan, Edgar Watson Howe, editor
of the Atchison Globe. Mr.. Howe is the
author Of many virile novels and his
STORY of a Country Town" is one of
the American classics. He has written
other books much better known than
1.-THE Ante-Mortem Statement" but
none of a more serious and interesting
purpose. Mr.. Howe himself regards it
as his most important book, and it is
rather surprising to those who have
read it that it is not more widely
known. 1t is second in power to no
great problem novel or drama of litera-
ture and deals with subject which is
of intense personal interest to everyone.
