of the new style of interior decoration.
 Never before has 1t been possible to furnish so well and so cheaply. The day of furniture frauds Is past. We rarely see imitation mahogany, imitation 1nlaid and poor quality gilt. If we cannot afford the real mahogany furniture and the real inlaid we can leave that sort of thing alone and use instead mission furniture, which is both inexpensive and pretty, and wicker chairs stained soft green or brown and fitted with bright red or green cush- ions. Then for curtains with this sort of furniture there are soft hangings of mad ras with their sheer backgrounds and their queer, fascinating figurings. A room fitted in this way only needs soft shaded candle light or red lamp to make it entirely artistic.
 And, speaking of interior decorations, what more satisfactory Christmas pres ent than pillow or picture for sonic one's own particular den? And It's about time to think of those same Christ mas presents, too.

Convulsions in Infants.

When the cause is obscure, a medical man should be called in. If this is im- practicable the parent must aim at keep ing the child as free from disturbing con- iitions as possible. Its clothing should be soft and loose. Laces, fiannels, furs and other articles that occasion tickling
 and so promote irritability of temper ought never to come against the skin. If the child Is restless folded towels soaked in ice cold water may with ad- vantage be applied to the head. The treatment is more especially useful when the child is feverish. Every precaution should be taken against the little one being overloaded in its bed. Many att tacks result from the intellectual efforts of the child to free itself from what is partial suffocation. It is taken to its par
 ents' bed. and when they are asleep it slowly slips downward beneath an un- endurable weight of bedclothing and with a full grown adult on each side. The

A Land of Pure Delight.

 When one considers the usual trials through which a new nation is born-the seven years struggle of the American colonists for independence, the ten or twelve years wars of the Spanish-Amerl- can republics, the eighty years agony of Holland, the centuries of fighting in Switzerland-one must congratulate the republic of Panama upon the downy softness of its cradle We have all the credit We could ask-it is in fact unlin- ited," says Don Frederico Boyd. of the Panama commission. "We will not need a navy, nor in fact an army. The army will be disbanded."
 Happy Panama, with. no burden of mill itarism or debt, with a Government of three men that did not need to be made but just gowned," with unlimited credit and with protection against evil-disposed persons from a benevolent uncle who not only settles all the military and naval bills, but chucks in a present of 10000.0 900 out of pure kindness of heart!

parental bed is no fit place for child of any age. ..
 There are minor matters. things that many would deem beneath notice, but which are sufficiently powerful to de- termine whether a child shall have an attack. It is in attention to these de- tails that the nursing instinct makes it. self apparent and in their ignoring that so many women prove themselves quite united for the care of little children.
 For one instance, files may irritate babe; for another, 1t may be placed in perambulator and be driven in the blaze of the sun or blinding dust; for a third, 1t may be dressed with every re- gard for show, but with none whatever for comfort. Then its body linen may be neglected, and the little limbs be made sore. There IS yet another common cause of mischief-keeping a child awake to Do shown to friends when 1t should be rest ing it's little nervous system in sleep. A mother has been even known to order her sleeping babe to be brought into tic drawing room, careless whether 1t was thereby awakened.

A notable autumn hunting trip in the Rockies of Colorado was recently fin ished by Miss Anna Morgan, daughter of J. Pierpont Morgan. Miss Morgan is as distinguished in the field of feminine hunting and shooting as her father Is in the realm of finance. She has not been to India to shoot big game, like that Brit ish woman Nimrod, Lady Constance Mac kenzie, but she has shot beasts equally glorious in a sportsman's eye with tigers and wild boars.
 At the close of the fashionable seaside season. Anna Morgan packed her trunk with rough. very rough skirt, or two, some heavy brown shoes, a felt hat, a sweater and other appurtenances for roughing it away from civilization, then packed one of her fathers special cars with necessaries for camping out, invited two or three girls and some other friends to join her and sped away on a hunting trip. She took a kitchen man or two along to cook and do the housework but no maids to dress her or her companions.
 No maid could stand such roughing it." said Miss Morgan, wlch is true. Ladies ladies" and "gentlemen's gentle men, are the last folk to endure being deprived of soft beds and luxurious little comforts.
 Anna Morgan can rough 1t and be hap py riding a broncho astride, wading knee deep in a trout stream, climbing a noun tain peak or tracking deer in the forest During the recent Colorado hunting trip she is said to have brought down not only brace of deer (all the game laws allow one person to shoot). but also to have killed a splendid elk. Lynxes. mountain lions, bears and wildcats were some of the game the party hunted.
 The flnanciers daughter won the un- qualified admiration of the old Rocky Mountain guides who accompanied the party. The trip lasted four weeks. It was the third or fourth expedition of the kind Miss Morgan has made, and an- other next season has already been ar ranged for. The principal camp of the party is on Trappers' Lake. They rode through the wilderness 125 miles by broncho, sleeping in tents at night. Three tents-one for ladies, another for the gen. tlemen of the party, third for the guides and servants-constituted the Rocky Mountain camp of which Anna Morgan was the leading spirit. She is also a noted woman athlete at home in New York and famous lawn tennis expert,

Indian Wife of Sam Houston.

 A moS&menD is on foot to remove the remains of the Cherokee wife of General Sam Houston to Fort Gibson. to rest in the natinal cemetery here. She was mar ried to Sam Houston at Fort Gibson, where her people resided, not long after his arrival from Tennessee, where he re- signed the office of Governor of that State, which movement is shrouded in mystery so far as history is concerned Miss Rogers Is said to have been very beautiful, and that Houston knew her in Tennessee before her removal here. Chief elect Rogers of the Cherokee nation, is on of her nearest relatives. Mrs. Heffer- non, landaldy of the Trent House. is also a relative Both have consented to the removal of the remains, which now lie at Wilson's Rock, on the Arkansas river. about twelve miles from Muldrow. A suitable monument will be placed above the grave in the national cemetery at Fort Gibson.

 There is one fault into which most peo- pie fall who have managed to scramble a little higher in the world than they are to whom is owed the consideration, atten- tion. and love of kindred-that Is, to be ashamed of those less fortunate relatives to despise and slight even father and mother: if they be not genteel refined. or intelligent as would be agreeable. to call them uncongenial. and shake them off. no matter how much they love their proud and cruel contemner.

Subdued Colors.

I can't help noticing how much more subdued colors are becoming. both in dress and in interior decoration. Every thing seems to have mellowed so that all the tones are restful to the eye. There is hardly gown of three colors. ana there are many all of one shade with the lace dyed to match. In rooms everything harmonizes in with one color scheme.

Contrary to the former rule, home
