THE OPEN FIRE.

Nothing In the Winter Scheme OF
Decoration Can Compare with 1t.
From time immemorial the hearth.
the fireplace, has been the central OBJ
ject in the household. Here have gath.
cred In olden times the aged grand.
parents, the stalwart farmer and his
ruddy wife and the prattling grand
children, even the household pets. Here
have all domestic joys and sorrows
been wept or laughed in tragedy or
comedy of real existence
We are all fire worshipers, and the
bright bed of glowing Goals in the open
fireplace is the merry household idol,
Emerson recommends a wood fire as a
banisher of melancholy, and who can
deny that the dancing flames and flick
ering lights chase the COLLINS from the
corners and the shadows from the
mind as well as warm and cheer the
body by it's kindly heat. The open fire.
place, as one of the first contrivances
invented to contribute to the comfort
of man, has no mean history Of its
own. With the first mud huts came a
fire Of logs in the middle of the floor,
with a hole in the roof for the escape
of the smoke. Then next we find a
rude sort of fiue which created suffi-
cient draft to draw the smoke up to
one point and on through the gradual
improvement of the fireplace until it
becomes in the fourteenth century the
principal point Of decoration even in
the palaces and public buildings.
In our latter days of household lux
ury and comfort we have returned to
the open fireplace for artistic beauty. If
not for heating purposes. Nothing In
the winter scheme Of decoration-flow-
ers gay hangings, rich colorings or
bright lights-can compare with the
open fire. 1t is like living presence In
the room, but even q fine diamond may
be improved by the setting, SO we find
everything at hand these days to lend
brightness and charm to our open fire
The brass fire sets, consisting Of poker,
tongs and brush. in an artistic stand,
the coal box and fender of the same
material, reflect back each winking
fame and are almost as bright as the
fire itself

and are ornamental as well as useful.
The old Dutch crane and kettle are per-
haps the best liked, but the English
teakettle, with a sharp pointed base
which thrusts down into the Goals, is
convenient and is very quick method
of heating water. There is also fiat
topped trivet with one slender leg
which passes through the two upper
most bars of the CRATE, upon which a
Japanese earthenware kettle may be
placed without danger

The new tailor mades are very fancy
in the way of tucks and strappings.
Many Of the skirts are made habit back

strappings or one long and two short.
The long skirts have fairly long trains.

His Compromise.

Mr. Potter was giving his son few
words of fatherly counsel as to his
treatment Of his young wife. "Now,
when you have any little differences
of opinion" said Mr.. Potter in his most
judicial manner, IF you can't per-
suade Margaret that you are in the
right, you must compromise, my boy
compromise with good grace"
'T'll try to- said the son respect
fully.
81 well remember little experience
had with your mother the summer
after we were married." continued
Mr.. Potter. 81 wanted to spend six
weeks at Saratoga, and your mother
preferred to spend the time In taking
a trip through Canada. It's thirty odd
years ago, but I well remember the
arguments we had before I compro-
missed"
NHow did you do itY' asked the son.
I'VE spent five weeks and half In
Canada" said Mr.. Potter, "and from
Friday night till Monday morning in
Saratoga"

RELIGION OF THE BLANKET
How the Navajo Squaw Prays as She
Spins and WeaVes.

Spins and Weaves.
1t is religion to make a Navajo
blanket Through the kinky, bristling
Irvine of the warp are woven the hopes
and aspirations of an immortal soul.
In the warm colors are expressed the
ardors of passionate hearts, the sand
storms they have faced, the cloudbursts
under which their backs have bent, the
smiling sunshine that has dried their
wool; all the adverse and the good for
tunes that have befallen are wrought
into the intricate designs. The squaw
prays as she pushes the wool card, and
she prays as she twirls the distaff in
her hand or rolls it on her thigh; she
prays as she arranges the healds; she
prays as she Justify pounds down the
wool strands with her scrub oak bat
ten.
A blanket is all prayer, a human
document, biography bright with the
joy tints of canary yellow, dark with
the olive green of pain. One is drawn
to it because ones heart is moved by
its ineffable, intangible humanness.
One is strangely moved to both laugh
ter and tears by It's exquisitely variant
colors, each expressing an emotion by
its warmth of blended fibers, each
throbbing to a note of triumph or Of
woe.-Southern Workman.

''That Is all. The case is worth ne
more than twopence," was the reply.
"That is good news!' calculated the
old lady, with sigh of relief. "It's the
case for mine which have lost"

pence and marched of with the coveted
