Bedroom Furniture.

Heavy cumbrous furniture takes up
the air space and makes the room diff
ticult to keep clean. Moreover, it en-.
courages the storage Of quantities of
clothing in the room, which always
produce a stuffy condition of the air.
The bed is the most important arti-
Gle. 1t should have a strong iron
frame, with a good woven wire or
chain spring mattress. On the bed
stead there should be a hair mattress,
a bolster and a feather pillow. The
bed clothes should consist of an under
blanket and one, two, or three upper
blankets, according TO- the weather,
pair of cotton sheets, a cotton or linen
plllOw-case, and a counterpane. A
short cretonne valance not reaching to
the floor gives appearance and does
no harm, unless it encourages that
dirty and unwholesome practice Of
hiding away all sorts of old boxes and
rubbish under the bed.
In addition to the bed, a combined
dressing table and chest of drawers,
a washing-table and toilet-service, and
some kind of wardrobe are necessary.
The hanging wardrobe is an excellent
idea. 1t consists of a wooden top to
which a row Of pegs and a curtain
rod are attached. The top is fastened
to the wall, preferably in a recess, and
curtains of art muslin and cretonne
are suspended around it by the rod
1t costs n mere nothing, and, being
airy, never contracts that stuffy odor
so common in closet filed with worn
clothing A few ornaments and pic
lures are, of course, permissible, but
decorations placed in the fire CRATE,
must not be such as to obstruct the
free passage of air up the chimney.
Cleanliness is best secured by fur
nishing the room in such way as
to make it as easy as possible to keep
clean. The walls, floors and windows
should be treated as simply as posi-
BILE, and the other furniture should be
limited to that which is really neces-
sary for use in the bed room.--Amer,
lean Queen.

Nut Cake-One egg, three-fourths cur
of thick sour cream, one cup Of sugar,
one and one-half cups -four, one-half
teaspoon soda, one cup chopped Eng
lish walnuts. Bake nearly an hour in
a well creased Toured tin in a moder-
ate oven.
flashed Brown Potatoes-For one and
one-half pints Of cold boiled potatoes,
cut in dice add one-half teaspoonful
salt, one-sixth teaspoCnful pepper, and
about three-fourths Of a cup of milk.
Melt one tablespoonful of butter in
frying pan, pour in potatoes, mix well,
dredge with one tablespoonful Of flour,
and stir for five minutes Then pour
all in hot, well-butrered spider and
brown. Turn out like an omelet.
Banana Pudding-Four cups OF
water, one cup of sugar, four table
spoonfuls of corn starch, whites of
four eggs three bananas, two oranges.
Put sugar with water and let come
to a boil. Wet the corn starch and
stir in. Add the well beaten egg whites
by spoonfuls, beating well all the time.
Do not let boil after this, as it burns
easily. Put in dish 0 layer Of this
alternately with slices Of banana and
orange, Serve cold with whipped
cream.
Fricassee Of Eggs-Set two ounces of
butter into stewpan, and when dis
solved add chopped parsley, a little
finely minced onion, with pepper and
salt to season. Stew this until the sea-
soning is cooked, then add a cupful
Of milk and little -four to thlcken the
whole. Boil four eggs until hard, peel
off the shells carefully, and cut into
slices; each egg should make four OF
five slices. Set the eggs into the sauce,
let all come to the boil, and set in an
entree dish at once. If preferred, sub
stitute gravy for milk.

A Nrilk pealer,s Lament.

The milk dealer who also sells meat
and other necessaries Of life, sighed as
a customer went out indignant because
the dealer insisted upon his having a
receptacle for his intended purchase
Of milk.
"They come here" said the dealer,
"and expect me to furnish them with
milk, bottles and ALL But I've gotten
tired of that sort Of game. Those bot
ties cost us quite a sum, and in nine
cases out Of ten where we let them go
out we never see them again, notwith-
standing the promises Of customers to
return them. Then, Of course, we have
to buy more bottles. was easy

ment of the store was cutting into the
profits.
what do they do with the bottles?
Why, they use them to put up catsup

some time and a search warrant

An Educational Hint.

To keep girls "in touch with the
home life" at the same time that they
are gaining a college education and
high degree Of intellectual cultivation,
is the rather large program which Miss
Gill, the dean of Barnard College has
expressed a wish to adopt Miss Gill
suggests that it may be we'll to have
girls who go to college take a purely
social vacation Of year between the
sophomore and junior years, in which
they may establish their place with
their own set, and cultivate the domes-
tic side Of their nature. This sugges-
ton is interesting, but it seems to go
against the American genius in one
respect, 1t is a part of our National
character to devote ourselves with sim
gleness and thoroughness TO whatever
we undertake. We may change our
professions or devote ourselves to new
careers, but when we make a change
we believe in burning our boats be-
hind us.
The American girl who goes to col
lege obeys this instinct in making
business Of it. The very :horoughness
of her devotion to the career has raised
the question whether the college edu-
cation does not produce a sort of afro
ply of the domestic impulses, The
question is one which experience must
answer. But even very studious girls
in college are apt to get their social
recesses, without taking a year off,
and we doubt if the socially deadening
influence Of the college training is as
great as is often supposed York

Winter lIuhs,

Muffs are a curious study this year,
and are indeed one OF the most eXpen-
sive accessories to a complete toilet.
To wear with the fur coats-the sensi-
BILE ones, that is-there are fur muffs
made in the old-fashioned round
shapes, but without any thick inter-
lining Of cotton, or muffs in oblong
shape, lined with satin, or with the
same fur that is outside. These have
no interlining, whatever, eXcepc some
down. But no matter now many fur
muffs a woman owns, she is not well
gowned unless she has a muff for each
costume-rather a serious undertaking
in these days, when so many costumes
are demanded by fashion.
TO wear with a gray cloth gown
there is q muir, oblong in shape, made
entirely Of gray taffeta silk The
centre has rows of cords, and at each
end are four rufiles trimmed with ruch-
ings Of tafteta, and on the outside of
the muff a white artificial flower with
green leaves. fastening a bow of gray
satin ribbon. To wear with this is a
double cape collar and ruche, made Of
the tafteta silk, trimmed with pink
ruchings, a large bow at the back of
the neck, and an inside rufie Of fine
white lace. At the threat are long
lace ties and punches of gray satin

Enrlish Decadenoe.

He held an important position on
London newspaper, and yet he was
saying, and saying in all seriousness,
in naive perplexity'
Now l can claim, without conceit,
that / am mere intellingent that the
average of my fellow -Engllshmen.
Otherwise l shouldn't have my pres
ent position. | frankly admit, though,
that I'm not equal to the average
American. But why am / not? Where
is the difference"
What could one say to such meek
ness? 1t was fortunate that be went
on:
You say that you don't believe in
this talk Of English decadence, and
you think we're as good men as our
fathers. Perhaps the trouble is that
we're just like our fathers"
Then, indeed, he hit the toe on the
nail, and agreed with him as politely
as possible. The world Of the sons,
however, is not the world Of the faith
ers, and in nothing is the typical Amer
lean so sharply contrasted with the
rest Of the world as in this fact that
while he loves and admires his pro-
genitors quite as deeply, If not quite
so solemnly, as the rest of the world,
he has suspicion that the tools and
methods his father used are much
more appropriate in the cabinet of
relies than in the shop which compe-
tltion is eternally threatening to un-
dermine and absorb.
Because his father thought thus and
acted so is to the typical Englishman
most excellent reason for following
suit 1t is to the American very
strong reason for trying some other
way.-Harper's Weekly.

How to Hold Up the Skirt.

Few women have the least idea how
to hold up their skirts, and as fashion
demands long skirts on some occasions
it is most disastrous, not only for the
skirts, but for the appearance Of the
wearers. A woman who can manage
her skirts gracefully and easily has a
decided advantage over her less calmly
sister, and the OnlOOker knows that
the ugly backs Of the large majority
Of woman are due to the way in which
they hold their skirts.
Skirts for dressy wear are worn
resting on the ground both in front,
at the sides, and with a long train
behind, and they promise to be in
vogue for some time to come. A few
remarks as TO how to manage them
may not be unWelcome to those who
wear them. OF course a long dress
should not be worn in wet weather;
then common sense demands a skirt
not longer than a couple Of inches from
the ground all around, but in dry
weather the long skirt is still worn by
many women out of doors, and it is
in nine instances out Of ten held up
by grasping the back Of the skirt about
midway down, and drawing it as much
as possible toward the side thereby
outlining the figure. How woman
can hold her skirt in this manner after
she has seen how other women look
when doing so Is a mystery, 1t Is
ugly and vulgar and it spoils her walk
as well as her entire appearance. Tc
hold the skirt gracefully it should be
grasped in the centre Of the back as
far down as the hand can comfortably
reach and with the hand still exactly
in the centre the skirt should be rajseC
just sufficiently to raise it from thu
ground. By this means the sides Of The
skirt will remain full and not dragged
in with it, as we so often see; 1t vii
also be found much easier to walk in
A little shake should be given to tn,
skirt after it has been gathered up
This lets the folds or hounces at tht
bottom fall into their natural positions

A table showing the amount Of time
a healthy, we'll -brought-up baby spends
each day in sleeping was brought out
recently by an authority. 1t is as
follows:
For the first three weeks, from II to
10 hours.
At one month, II to Is hours.
At two months, 1G to IL hours.
At three months, 10 to lG hours.
At nine months, 1871 to II hours.
At twelve months, 13 to IA hours.
After this a child should sleep as
long as possible-not less than IL or
y hours Mt night, and retain the Gus
tom of midday sleep for at least two
more years All children require n
great deal Of sleep to make up for
the wear and tear Of the day Until
they are done growing a regular ten
hour night should be the rule.
