Novel Plncushlon.

Children's toy scales can be made
into most novel pincushions at a
very small cost. Procure some very
thin pasteboard and cut it into the
form of weights, the size varying
according to the size of the scales.
The pieces Of card must be neatly
covered with dark iron colored silk
and joined together. Next make a
silk pad to be filled with wadding or
sawdust and insert it on the top of
the weights, gluing it firmly in. A
tiny ring sewed in the middle gives
the weight realistic appearance,
and the number of pounds it repre-
sents can be painted on the side.
The pins are placed in the pad and
the whole weight glued into the
scales. The scales can be prevented
from moving up and down by means
of little gilt wire fixing them in
place.

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
What the Wind Recently Accom-
plishcd In Michluan.

A Wheatland farmer says that
upon entering his pigpen immedi-
ately after the passage of the cy-
clone a few weeks ago he was sur
prised to find what he at first sup
posed was new species of swine.
His porkers had been driven so full
Of splinters as to be scarcely rec
ognizable.
A man sitting in back window Of
his residence just out of the path Of
the twister saw his cows, which were
grazing in a neighboring field, go
sailing skyward. They landed on an
adjoining farm and began grazing
again. He has not yet recovered
from his astonishment.
"Do you know the reason they

According to a gentleman who
has spent many years in the gold

Some time ago the "boys" of
Nugget Creek were in council as

Candles In the Room.

1t is always well to have a candle
in the bedroom whether oil, gas or
electricity is burned. In the case
of an emergency it will always be
just what is wanted, and at the same
time it is clean, safe and cheap.
Have low, plain candlesticks, which
are easy to keep clean, with base
broad enough to catch the dirt and
be safe receptacle for the matches.
To carry candle from one room to
another is always a safer plan than
to carry lamp.-New York Her

An Artistic Screen.

An artistic screen recently de-
signed for summer cottage is made
Of gray blue linen. 1t is a three
fold screen and on each fold an in
ner panel is drawn, leaving a wide
margin. This is outlined irregular

panel a sketchy design of cedar
branches is painted, starting at the
bottom. A bit of gilt appears here
and there on the foliage, and to the
entire panel greenish blue wash
has been applied.
