NEW DESIGN FOR A DOG KENNEL.

NEW DESIGN FOR DOG KENNEL.
trace in cursory fashion the history
of dog kennels in general, from the
time of Diogenes downward, but we
think that a glance at the sketch will
convince any one that the suggestion
is worth carrying out for its intrinsic
beauty, to which we must add that
such appliances fulfill a useful and
necessity purpose, and we may there
fore allow the historical dignity of the
kennel to be treated of by some more
leisured or interested writer.
There is, unfortunately, not sufficient
space to give in this column full size
working drawings for the carpentry
part of this undertaking, but the box
can easily be made by any one who Is
tolerably skillful at the bench, and the
arrangement of the roof is sufficiently
indicated by the sketch. The columns
at the side will be applied after the
box is complete, as will also the
turnery and cut through work above
The top of the kennel might, II de-
sired, be covered with felt, which is
often seen on such things, but if the
| Joints were securely filed with putty
the roof would probably be watertight
without any other addition. The color
| of the kennel might be of green or lead
color. This will depend, however,
largely upon the tint of the fence or
wall near which it is to be placed. The
sides of the kennel are composed of a
number of strips of match boarding
not quite so substantial as the pieces
/ in use for the front and the roof. A
ring or staple to which the chain OF
the dog can be attached is not shown
because with a kennel of this size
and, although it could be made in vari-
Gus dimensions, it is hardly ever likely
to be large enough to be of great
weight-it is useless to attach the ami
NAL to it's habitation, since. little eX-
ira vigOr eXerted will result in the
kennel being dragged about, the gar
den damaged and the dog practically
at liberty. A staple or long iron screw
like those used for tennis nets, should
be driven into the ground in front OF
the kennel, and the chain of the dog
could then be attached to this.

characteristic colors - golden yellow
and rich maroon, with green leaves
fecked with yellow brown, as one has
often seen them growing in old fash

Old fashioned paneling is very con-
spicuous in tea sets and similar arti-
cles, some of the pieces being five
sided, others six, and the octagon, on
the whole, the favorite form.
A tea service of true French dainti-

the characteristic garland of the en-

fagon forms and the low, squat shapes,
plain smooth finish or heavily chased
and embossed ornament, are all equal

and one has wide choice among other
fanciful modes.
Silver tea caddies revive the pleasant
old time method of brewing the cup

plain, bright silver, and no added or

the corners cut off, so to speak, max

Others, like the French style shown
in the cut, display an elaboration OF
chased and repousse work. There are
tea caddy spoons galore, reproductions
of odd, old English specimens and
modern models of equal merit.
Bright silver and gray in very many
shades are equally fashionable, with a
leaning perhaps to the latter.
Gilt has been largely introduced into
silverware of every kind within the
past year or two, either as the entire
finish Of an article or only a part of 1t.
Gilt is also greatly varied in tone.
Wonderful are the shadings of gold
used in the handles of spoons, forks
and servers designed for special table
purposes. Sometimes greenish, tar
nished or antique effect is achieved
Other hues are so dark as to almost
mask the identity of the metal, but
most pleasing is a new flamelike hue

A Good SUGAR Season.

The present sugar season promises
to pass for one OF the best in several
years and some of those same farm
ers who were kicking themselves,
figuratively speaking, for tapping
last year are going through the same
performance this year because they
did not. Considering the number of
sugar places being worked this sea-
son large amount OF sugar and
syrup has been made and the quality
is said to be extra good. The Maple
wood Sugar & Syrup Co., under the
SUPPLEMENTARY of L. B. Roynton,
one of the firm, is doing large bust
ness in buying and shipping and
have already taken in a large
amount of sugar and syrup, tor
which they are paying the highest
market prices. Their new sugar
house near the depot is a model of
neatness and convenience and a visit
there at any time during this season
will find force of men busily engaged
in preparing the saccharlne for
market.

road. The unfortunate beast thus
left alone, fell over a high embank-
ment, where it was obliged to lie for
five hours, until death, from exposure
and the effects of the fall, came to it's
relief. A jury trial was held, B. A.

respondent. After being out but a

verdict of guilty. Fine and costs
