Humorin Horses.

Only those who are unfamiliar with
animals doubt that they have a sense
of humor. Jimmy is a lively road
horse who has ideas OF his own and
very original conceptions OF what is
amusing. One day the children had
erected a small tent on the lawn, and
sat within it drinking lemonade and
playing that they were banditii Jimmy
walked softly up to the side OF the tent
and softly inserted his nose through a
convenient slit, says Our Dumb Ami
mails. Eyes and ears followed and, his
head once within at the back Of the
unsuspicious reveres, Jimmy gave one
tremendous sneeze, OF that kind which
is half snort.
The banditti fell back in every direc-
ton and the horse, withdrawing him
self from the tent, laughed silently to
himself before going back to his grass
cropping. Jimmy's favorite amusement
is that of scattering a flock OF sheep.
When he is feeding with them in the
pasture he suddenly stops eating and
then dashes among them. sending them
scuddng over the hillside. Then he
stands watching them until they again
settle to their nibbling, and after a short
l.ncheon of his own repeats the pleas
ing diversion. Although this horse is
the gentlest creature in the world, it
pleases him exceedingly to frightcn any
one who has shown tin;idity in his
presence

A Japanese Den.

The Japanese den is the latest, and
as the existence of a den presupposes
its use as a smoking room the intro;
duction of the japanese form of dec.
Grafton is regarded with interest by
those who like simple furnishings and
object to the use of heavy draperies,
such as have been characteristic of
the dens Of the past when Turkish,
Moorish and like schemes of decora-
tion served as models. In a Japanese
room the keynote of the furnishing is
simplicity and plainness, the light
divans and chairs being smokeproof,
while the draperies are easily removed
and aired The japanese form of dec.
GRAFTON, which is likely to meet with
favor on account of its originality, is
thoroughly characteristic. 1t consists
Of the application of split bamboo on
the walls or on furniture in designs
that are Enthusiastically japanese.

Colonial Curtains.

In furnishing and decorating a room
a certain fitness must be maintained
For instance, if you are arranging your
family heirlooms of mahogany in one
room, you should not set them off with
modern plush curtains or lace sash
pieces. The claw-foot chairs and de.
lectablo candle-stands and sewing ia.
bles, or card tables with folding lids,
demand a certain proprlety Of accom-.
paniment. The mise-en-scene will be
better if you can drape your windows
with ancestral damask curtains of old
blue or amber little faded. perhaps,
but speaking aloud of Colonial looms.
The old.fashioned Indian cotton cur.
tains are delightful accessories to
Colonial room. The rather coarse
white. with blue figures, has a truly
Colonial air. There are other colors
softly blended in these old East India
cottons. A dull dahlia or plum color
which verges into brown is seen in
these Revolutionary fabrics. Al
most any of the colors which you see
in old china are acceptable in the sash
curtains for Colonial room; if you
chnnot procure these you can at least
choose white dimity or some Old-fash'
ioned looking muslin. Avoid the Mexl-
can work or drawn-thread cotton cur.
tanning for your Colonial ROOM it has
no part nor parcel in such an machine.

lace drapery be suggested.

Fish and Egg Salad-Pick the bones
from any cold cooked fish; to two cup.
fuls Of fish add four hard boiled eggs
chopped fine, and four OF five pickles
chopped; mix thoroughly and add
little boiled or mayonnaise dressing;
serve in lettuce leaves; garnish With
nasturtium leaves.
Ounce Butter-Pare and core the
ounces, cutting them rather fine: cover
them with water, cook until tender.
Place the parings and cores in another
saucepan, just enough water to pre-.
vent burning, cook until soft; strain off
the juice and add to the ounces. TO
each pound of fruit allow three-fourths
Of a pound Of sugar. Boil down until
smooth and thick, stirring TO prevent
burning. Put in jelly glasses and seal.
Keep in cool, dry place.
Orange Cream-Soak half a box OF
gelatine in half n cup of cold water
one hour; beat the yolks of three eggs
with one cupful of sugar and the
grated rind of one orange; scald one
piit of milk and pour it over the
egg mixture; return to the double
boiler and stir over boiling water until
creamy. then add the soaked gelatinc
and stir until dissolved Off the fire;
strain, and when cool add the juice OF
five oranges; when 1t begins to stiffen
add one cup OF cream, whipped stiff,
folding it in carefully. Turn into a

Redronm Ventilation.

Every room in the house should be
well ventilated but the bedroom should
be especially well ventilated, and the
oridces at which air is admitted should
be well above the level of a person oc.
cupying the room.
The current Of infowing air in fact
should be directed toward the ceiling,
for air admitted near the ceiling very
soon ceases to exist as a distinctive
current, and will be found at a short
distance from the inlet to have mingled
with the general mass of the air, and
therefore attained the temperature of
the room. partly owing to the larger
mass of air in the room with which
the infowing current mingles, partly
to the action of gravity in cases where
the innowng air is colder than the air
in the room.
1t may be regarded as an axiom in
ventiating and warming that the feet
be kept warm and the head cool. Those
who complain of being tired in the
morning should look into this matter
at once
The tired feeling may be due TO an
overweight of bed clothing, to overeX-
ertion during the day, TO indigestion
caused by taking too late meal, or to
poor ventilation of the sleeping room.
If there is another room to which you
can retire try what a change of sleep.
ing apartment will do. Many people
can sleep better at the top Of house
than on the first floor.-AmericaD

The RIond.

The blood is life. We derive from the
blood life, power, beauty and reason, as the
doctors have been saying from time i'm
memorial. A healthy body, fresh appear
ance, and generally all the abilities we pos
soss depend on that source OF lifc. II Is
therefore the duty of every sensible man to
keep the blood as pure and normal as pos
sble. Nature, in its infinite wisdom, has
given us a thermometer indicating the state
Of the blood which appeals to our reason
by giving notice of its impurity. Small
eruptions OF the skin, to which we scarcely
pay any attention, headache, ringing noises
in the ears, lasstude, sleeplessness, are
generally q sign that the blood IS not in its
normal state, but is filed with noxious sub
stances These symptoms deserve our full
attention. If more attention were paid to
those symptoms, and steps taken to. re-
move them then many illnesses from which
we suffer would become unknown, and the
human body would become stronger and
healthier. Attention therefore should be
paid to those warning signs, and the blood
can be purified and poisonous substances
removed from it by the use OF DR.. August
Koenigs Hamburg Drops, discovered more
than GO years ago.

Tho Mlnister Met Isis Match.

Mamie was a great Kirk haun'," and
it was unfortunate that she took dis
like to the new minister who came to
the parish. In her opinion he was
"licht," and he committed the, to her,
unpardonable offence OF using notes in
his sermon, and, worse than all, she
entertained grave doubts as to his be-
ing altogether 'soun' on certain knotty
points of doctrine. 1t so happened that
her manner to him was not very gra-
cious when he visited her in the kitchen,
as was his practice whenever he called
at Baldinnie On one OF these occa-
sions the minister, finding Mamie more
than usually intractable, considered 1t
his duty to address her, in an indirect
way of course, on the danger OF pride
and stubbornness Warming to his
work, he did not notice the lapse OF
time, while she on her part sat before
him with her eyes fixed on the floor,
the picture OF patient attention. Sud
denly his eye lighted on the clock IN
the corner. and he rose hurriedly to
his feet. Dear me-" he exclaimed,
how the time has flown! | must apol-

Dnarness Cannot Be Cnrnd

by local applications as they caunot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness and thnt is by consti-
tutional remedies Deafness Is caused by an
innamed condition Of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the inham-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever Nine cases out OF ten
are caused by catarrh, whichis nothing but an

Messrs. 2. T. Sewers. c. C. Cole, A. b.

Commissioners to report favorably upon
the bill on the ground that ii was essen

the appropriation could not be retained in
its entirety unless certain requirements
were kept by the institution in the way

for whom homes were found.
The hearing, which was private one.
resulted in very frank talk between
the officials of the inrtitution and those
of the District. and in a complete urder-

the proposed bill.
