DAINTY ~BEDSPREADS.

The busy housewife who has a taste
but no time for embroidery, yet would
like to have pretty bedsDreads, toilet
covers, screens and other dainty things
in her bedroom, will find a few suGges-
tons useful.
An extremenly pretty bedsDread is
made by taking a new linen sheet, and
with a dinner plate and small dessert
plate or saucer make intersected cir
cles with a hard lead pencil at regular
intervals over the spread. When this
is done, the foundation lines are made
for a pretty design Of wreaths. on
which it is easy to draw flowers or
leaves.
One wreath of wild roses or another
Of daisies has a good effect. The small
e. circle Of green leaves, and the larger
Of any simple flower. is a good idea.
When the flowers have been sketched
stain them the color desired with a
fast dye. There are several dyes that
| will stand careful washing, violet ink
Or red ink, for instance.
After the designs have been stained
outline them With single zephyr worst
ed, which washes admirably. Wash
silk is pretty and dainty, but it is not
SO effective and takes more time.
The easiest outline stitch is to sew
around the design with simple, run
ming stitch, and then going over it
again catch each stitch in over-and-
over fashion. This gives a rope effect
which looks we'll.
A bureau cover to match the spread
made in the same way with smaller
circles, would be decorative, ard pan
els for a screen look effective done III
this Way.-New York Journal.

TO DECORATE HAMMOCKS.


Hammocks are greatly improved by
a little decoration. The easiest way of
making a hammock look gay and pref
ty is to make a short founce of flow
cred chintz and sew it On each side,
then put in wooden extension sticks,
and make four cuihions Of the same
chintz, two at each end. Embroidered
sailcloth makes pretty hammocks; the
sailcloth is cut the length required, and
a pattern in outline stitch is worked on
it wit. a large darning needle and
double zephyr wool. At each end a
hem is made, large enough to slip a
brass or wooden rou through. A small
curtain rod can be procured for this
purpose, cut the length desired, with
ball ornaments at either end to screw
on. A brass chain can be bought by
the yard, and cut in three lengths,
about three-quarters Of a yard long,
the centre one q little shorter, so that
when fastened to the rcd and brought
to a point on a ring the hammock will
hang comfortably. To the ring which
holds the chains ordinary hammock
rope can be spliced and hung in the
usual way. A small silk ruffic On either
side of the embroidered sailclcth serves
as a Observation-Disclosures Telegraph.

MAKING FRUIT JUICE.

The making of fruit juice at home is
an easy matter, and Il has the assur-
ance that she has the material for
dainty desserts at hand in an emer-
gency at 10 great cost. TO each quart
Of strawberries, currants Or raspber-
r3es add one-half the bulk of sugar Il
heat in a double boiler for Il hour or
longer, until the fruit is very soft.
Strain through a jelly bag and heat
one hour, but do not allow the juice to
boil. Use a thermometer, and see that
the Juice keeps at about 200 Fahren-
heit. Bottle and seal. This fruit juice
will require some diluting when used.
If the bottles lave been thoroughly
boiled before pouring in the juice there
will be no danger of souring.

In Norway drunkenness is punished
by Imprisonment. AS soon as a mar
is incarcerated the delinquent has a
loaf and wine morning and evening.
The bread is served In a wooden bowl
full of wine, in which it has been
soaking for an hour. The first day the
drunkard swallows his allowance will
ingly enough. The second day it seems
less pleasant. At the end of eight Or
ten days prisoners have been known to
abstain altogether from the food thus
pitilessly presented. This course Of
treatment finished, the drunkard, ex-
cept in rare instances, is radically cur
ed. At least, SO it is said.

How It Feels to Be Sucked Under
Water by a Foundered
r,5;,hvr0h Medical Journal

LA. Il Feels to Be Sucked Under
Water by a Foundered Steamer.
In tho Edinburgh Medical journal
James A. Lawson gives an interesting
description of his thrilling experience
when he was dragged under water by
a sinking ship. When he was Tar
down in the swirling waters he
struck out for the surface, but only
went further down. This exertlon
was a serious waste of breath and
after what appeared to be ten or NJ
cen seconds the effort OF Inspiration
could no longer be restrained, ana
pressure of the chest began to develop.
The most striking thing he remem-
bered was the great pain In the cnest,
which increased at every effort 70 ex-
>piration and inspiration. 1t seemed
as If he were in a wise, which was
gardually being screwed up, until 1t
felt the sternum and spinal column
must break. The "gulping" process
became more frequent for o tea
efforts and hope was then extin-
guished.
The pressure after these gulps
seemed un%bearable, but gradually the
pain seemed to ease up, as the car
bonic acid was accommodating In the
blood. At the same time the efforts
at inspiration, with their accompany
ing gulps of water, occurred at longer
and longer intervals. The writer's
mental condition was then such that
he appeared to be in a pleasant dream,
but still had enough will power to
think of friends at home, etc. Be-
fore finally losing consciousness the
chest pain had completely disap-
peared, and sensation was actually
pleasant. When consciousness re-
turned he found himself on the sur
face Of the water (probably from the
action Of the life belt), and finally
managed to reach shore.

Johnson Before Boswell.

1t must not be forgotten that the
picture of Johnson that Boswell gi-es
us is a picture of Johnson in his de.
Ginning years, his character formed,
his work for the most part done. The
Johnson whom we all know in the
famous biography, the Great Cham.
Of literature, the founder of the
famous club, the revered philosiphe1
whose grotesque antics moved his
friends to alternate awe and laugh
ter, the tender-hearted and rough
hammered man who bullied the strong
and bowed humbly to the weak. was
the product OF a long life amid an
environment unknown to Boswell ex-
cept by report, and of IN hereditv
which, had he known, he could not
have appreciated.-T. M. Parrott. in
