PASSING OF THE PARLOR.
The Room Intended for Company Re-
ceptiOns Now Used by the
Family.

The passing of the parlor in many
of the modern homes is a thing to be
noted and encouraged The room
set apart for this use in the major
ity of city houses is really almost
hopeless for any other service. 1t is
usually long and narrow, lighted
from only one end, and with little to
offer opportunity for relief from mo-
notony in furnishing. Artistic house
keepers have realized this, and many
of them have directed their effort to
relieve these conditions with success.
"You must Begin" confdes one who
has done this. to a New York Even
ing Post writer, Shy eliminating the
Tarlor idea. Give the room a touch
of the coziness of the living-room
with bit of the dignity of the IL
brary and your 'parlor' will be trans
formed" The speakers method in
her own case was as follows: First
to open the fireplace and use it. One
forgot the stiff and inartistic mantel
with the cheerful blaze beneath it
and comfortable chairs drawn up
within easy range. Next, along the
wall from the fireplace to the corner
where the piano stood, to put in
low line of bookshelves filled with
books, the upper shelf holding vari-
Gus bits of bric-a-brac, a good plaster
cast, one or two vases, and pieces of
ware, rich in color and graceful III
design rather than costly in fabric.
In another corner an old mahogany
table supported on its polished sur
face some bits of Sheffield plate in
old designs. Opposite the bookcase
was put low wall seat covered in
terra Gotta corduroy, with cushions
to match. There were some good
pictures on the walls and portieres
in terra Gotta corduroy at the hall
threshold, and also at the double
doors leading to the extension-room.
Near one window stood a pretty
writing-table with a chair in front of
it and an air of dainty use about it.
BY another table. on which was a
reading-lamp and one or two of the
late periodicals. with a little book
rack, evidently holding some favorite
volumes, was drawn a comfortable
chair that invited rest and losing
ones self in books. On the floor
went a mating of fine weave and in
the natural tint, upon which the
price of a carpet had been invested
in one or two good rugs, to which
the chatelaine explained that she
meant to add as she found it posi-
BILE. The house was the ordinary
rented sort with ugly woodwork and
the usual stiff monotonous arrange
ment on the parlor floor, but the
room described was so welcoming
and attractive that the unpleasing
details were completely subordinated.

Our illustration presents a cabinet
with decorations in typography and
color. Typography is another word
for burnt wood decoration.
During the festivals of Christmas
tide great bowls of beer are brewed,
and many quaint-shaped drinking
cups are set afoat in the beer for the
guests to help themselves. The wood
en- boats with carved meads which are
shown in the illustration are used for
this purpose. They are decorated in
color and form altogether unique
ornaments. Some objects of table

signs in repousse and antique pattern.

Recipes for Furniture Polish.

The polishing of furniture seems to
be of comparatively modern date. The
effect is that a hard-faced surface is
secured, which is not so liable to be-
come scratched as vanished. and
which presents equally as brilliant
and fine appearance. There are sew
eral pastes and polishes used, few
of which are herewith given: A good
furniture polish is made with one-half
an ounce of beeswax and a quarter
ounces Of white wax, half an ounce of
ed together until the wax is well col
ored; then add half a gill each of raw
linseed oil and spirits of turpentine;
strain through muslin. A polishing
paste is made as follows Take three
onuces of white wax, half an ounce of
CASTLE soap, one gill spirits of turpen-
tine; shave the wax and soap very fine
and put the wax in the turpentine; let
the mixture stand "a hours; then boil
the soap in one gill of water and add
to the wax and turpentine. This paste
is highly recommended by practical
men.

READING THE LIPS.
They Furnish an Index to Ones Char
acter Which Rarely Deceives
Careful Observers.

The lower lip is the most important
part of the mouth as an indicator of
character. According to it's fuIlness,
freshness in appearance and width it
indicates benevolence and liberality.
A pale, shriveled and narrow lower lip
reveals "a decided want of these quail
tiles.
There are thick underlips which so
hang that they become almost dis
fgurement, and these, as well as look
ing ugly, denote Incidence and a love
of luxury. Taking the opposite ex-
IRENE, however, it is not desirable to
have pronounced thin lips, for when
the outline of the lips is narrow, and
united to a mouth with a sinister ex-
preston, there is indicated a great de-
friency of natural kindness in their
owner, want of warmth and but lit
tie capacity to love. Well-defined and
developed lips, the outlines of which
are rounded out, are admired for their
beauty and moral worth, being, as
they are, tokens of tender-hearted
amiable and sympathetic disposition.
Well closed lips are sign of discre-
ton. If the upper one is long, in addi-
ton to being pressed down firmly upon
the lower one, both mental and phys
zeal power appertain to their owner.
When the upper lip is very short and
the middle teeth of the top row are
constantly exposed, fondness for
praise is betrayed.
Frequently another type of mouth is
seen, one in which the corners of the
lips descend, indicating person of
Respondent disposition, prone to dwell
overmuch upon the serious side off
life. But when the corners turn up in
the form of Cupid's bow, their pos
SCISSOR is of bright and cheerful ma
ture, always finding silver lining to
every cloud and good in everything

NORWEGIAN CABINET.
Designed and COIOred to suit
Owners Fancy.

Among the farmer folk of Norway
much of the time that they are forced
to spend indoors during the long win
ter season is utilized in wood carving.
They make a great variety of small
boxes, drinking vessels and pals of
white wood. These they decorate
with the sharp point of a hot poker,
making excellent designs of conven-
tiOnal character.
The hot point burns a line of rich
brown in the white wood, making real
ly beautiful objects of the utensils of
everyday life.
Many drinkingbowls are painted in
the strong primary colors; vermillion
serves as the first background color,
on which lines of green or blue accent
the curves and rim of the vessel, and
an inscription in which letters warns
the partaker that Both mead and

ELABORATION THE RULE.
Negligee Attire Is No Longer Char
acterIzed by the Simplicity
of BygOne Days.

Elaboration is increasing in negli-
gee attire-indeed, is almost essential
now to a satisfactory garment. Not
long ago everything but a compare
lively simple boudoir gown was
graded as more or less extravagant
finery, according to it's degree of com
plexity, but now it is possible to
copy the costly ideas at comparative
ly small outlay, so highly wrought
robes and jackets are the rule. A
potent aid in much of this copying is
the beauty and abundance of cotton
fabrics made in imitation of silk. The
mercerizing processes have brought
many handsome stuffs and practically
all the lighter ones have been made
available for house gowns, negligees
and the like, and while not a few of
these are worthy of really fine trim
mings, there is no end of ineXpen-
sive garnitures that will set them off
nicely.
While garments composed in this
styles, it is better to study fashions
in more costly materials. And that
is easy, for in the model gowns are
fine stuffs without end. In them
China silk, foulards and soft cloths
abound, especially for teagowns. AL
ternate bands of silk and lace inser-
ton compose many. Handsome
gowns of all-over white and beige en-
broidery are finished with rows of
tiny satin-ribbon ruffles. Empire
styles predominant, and nearly all are
made with short elbow sleeves, beau
tifully finished with lace ruf11es and
ribbon bows. Gowns of transparent
cloths are appliqued with lace, lace
medallions, appliqued here and there
on the body of the gown being a fire.
quent finish. Black velvet ribbon often
is used as finish. Figured lawns,
dimities and swisses are very pretty
and are as deliberately trimmed as
any.
White tea gowns are stylish and
are numerous in dainty lawns and
muslins, Valenciennes laces and inser-
tions trim many of these. Some are
made with Spanish founces, tucked
or trimmed with lace; others have
plain gathered ruffles, headed with
embroidered beading, with delicate
colored ribbons run through. The
handsome teagown pictured here was
made with a Spanish fiounce and was
white Persian lawn, white lace and
white satin ribbon. Often the tea
gown in empire style, more or less
distinct, has handsome garniture in
bolero effect. This feature is to be
found in the most expensive grade of
negligee dresses, point worth re-
membering, since it is a finish that
can be reproduced cheaply with COM
plete success.-Chicago Daily News.

DICTATES OF FASHION.
New Trimmings and Materials That
Will BE in Vogue the Conn
ing Season.

Short jackets for spring wear are
made loose, straight fronts and
revers extending full lergth.
Trimming with bands of dotted
material promises to be strong fea-
ture from this time forward i'll all
branches of tailoring and dressmak-
ing, and in tie world of linen things
it is to be the ruling passion.
Scarfs should be about six inches
in width and the ends are finished
with lace applique or some dainty
embroidery. The exquisite pale yell
lows, pinks and blues done in rich
eastern embroidery make handsome
pieces of neckwear for any waist,
says the Chicago Daily News.
The latest blue is lead blue. 1t is
somethink like china blue with a
gun-metal cast. One charming exam
pie is overstrewn with small white
leaves deftly veined with black. This
touch of black is just as clever a bit
of accentuation as could be desired.
Swiss muslins promise to be con-
spicuous in the summer array. They
are expensive, but beautiful and
worth their cost. They come in ex-
quisite cloudy effects, in pretty
stripes and figures. Many are shown
for informal wear. They are high in
the neck, have long sleeves and many
are trimmed almost wholly with rib
bon. Others are embroidered and
embellished with lace.
For a young wearer is bodice of
powder-pink silk, the softest of rose
shades, with strappings of black vel
vet ribbon held down by dull black
crystal buttons. The shoulders are
draped with white mousseline fchu,
drawn down and knotted in front,
and chiffon and lace elbow sleeves
complete the scheme most charm
ingly.
Lace scarfs as hat trimmings are
evidently going to last over into the
spring. Many hats are trimmed in
this way, with the lace ends hanging
down in the back. In Paris just now
one sees a good many ostrich plumes,
single long plume encircling the
crown, or, perhaps more modish, a
cluster of small plumes rolling up
the brim on one side.
Every well-regulated wardrobe
must count at least on transparent
wooden gown, and, spite of strenuous
efforts of manufacturers and mo-
distes to introduce other less hack
neyed colors, some shade of blue is
the general preference. From dark
Holland linen blue to bright jay blue
the women select these gowns, and a
good many of them betray a warm
liking for veilings that are woven
with hemstitched stripes or with lit
tie satin or silk dots and wiggles and
diamonds and stars. On another side
preference is shown for big and lit
tie velvet disks applied to the rough
surface of the yelling, and this last is
quite the smartest frivolity of the mo-
ment.

The company has now decided to give the
p'opulaee OF some OF the larger cities in the

huge nursemaid, and she is a very SEN
sible creature. She is so years of age
and weighs something like 5000
pounds. The baby is Master Evan
Healey, a bright 15-months-old young
ster, who betrays not the least fear in
the Glands" of his strange nurse. The
methods adopted by the elephant when
it wishes to give its precious charge a
ride in its baby-carriage are certainly
unique. Sometimes it pushes the per-
ambulator along with it's trunk with
it's end on the ground, as seen in the il
lustration; at others it will grasp the
handle with the tip of its trunk, while
occasionally it will push the carriage
with one of its huge feet, guiding it at
the same time withits trunk.
