But this year the tiger was in way
an issue and vast army of new voters
aligned themselves with the republican
party probably with the purpose of con-
tiruing as members of that party. Shrewd
republicans think that the problem of con-
serving this new force is more important

torship. They don't want a republican

With reference to national affairs more

floor below the Shelf and the small space
between is all that shows of the radiator,
which is almost unnetceabie Instead of be-
ing the most prominent and only ugly
thing in the room before it was thus treat
ed.
A Working Table.
In the bath room. the thin coiled radiator
has its small shelf as well, and the blue
cover-harmonizing with the walls-is re-
movable, SO that it becomes a very handy
little working table for all kinds of uses
by simply taking off the blue scarf
In the bed room, however. the most signal
success has been attained, both to APP
pearance and usefulness. Here a high old
fashioned mahogany bureau fills all the
available space and dressing table was
out of the question. To fill the place of
that longed-for convenience the radiator
was utilized very effectively. The shelf WAS
extended at either end, so as TO completely
fill space between a door and a window
the front corners were then sawed OF so
that there would be no danger from thin,
sharp outlines, being as it is close to a
door through which there is continual pass
ing. This makes the shelf somewhat longer
on the back edge, giving a much prettier
effect than square corners.
A Pretty Arrangement.
After securely fastening the shelf to the
radiator it was lightly padded and then COW
cred with cream-colored dimity, with full
gathered frill of the same, eight inches deep,
this being covered with heavy linen lace two
inches narrower, both tackled on with brass
nails
Above this hangs a large. high mirror in
wide frame, painted cream white, like all
the woodwork in the room, while sitting
in front of the radiator and nearly conceal
Ing all that was below the frill is n small
screen. the frame of white painted wood
and the opening filled with shirred cream
madras.
A Dressing Table.
The top of the shelf has all the necessary
furnishings of a dressing table. the silver
articles looking very pretty against the
cream white background, while a gas jet
gives good light at night and the window,
with its full curtains of cream madras like
the screen, does the same by day
Seen from the next room this is a pretty
decorative feature, and its usefulness is out
OF all proportion to the small space it occu-
pies, which of necessity must have been
given to the unadorned radiator in any
case.
So | say that developer of ingenuity
apartment life has its uses in more ways
than one.

WATCH OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS
Heirloom Treasured by Descendants Of
Mary Setoun, Favorite Maid.
From Tit Bits.

From Tit Bits.
The descendants of Mary Setoun, one OF
the four maids of honor to Mary Queen or
Scots. have in their possession curious
watch, which given by that queen to
her favorite. The watch, which is in the
shape CT miniature skull. Is about two
inches and a half in diameter. 1t is sup
posed to have been purchased by Mary her
self when on a visit to Blois with her
husband the dauphin of France, as it has
the name of a celebrated Blois manufacture
engraved on 1T.
The entire skull is curiously engraved On
the forhead there is picture of death.
with the usual scythe and hour glass. lie
IS depicted as standing between palace
and howell to show that he Is no respecter
of persons and underneath is the familiar
quotation from Horace. "Pallida moTs

unique turres
At the back of the skull is another repre-
sentaton, this one being of time devourng
everything Time also carries scythe and
beside him is the emblem of eternity-the
serpent with its tail in its mouth.
The upper section of the skull is divided
into two pictures. On one side is the cruel
fixion with the Marys kneeling at the foot
of the cross. and on the other side
Adam and Eve surrounded by animals in
the garden of Eden.
Below these pictures, running right round
low the sound of the striking of the watch
to be heard. The openwork is a series of
designs cut to represent the various EN-
blems of the crucifixion. such as scourges.
the cross, swords, spears, the lantern used
in the garden. and so forth. All of the cary
ings have appropriate Latin quotations.
By reversing the skull and holding the up
per part in the palm of the hand and lift
ing the under jaw on its hinges the watch
may be opened and on the plate inside is a
representation of the stable at Bethlehem,
with the shepherds and their hocks in the
distance.
The works of the watch are in the brains
of the skull, the dial plate being where the
roof of the mouth would be in real skull.
This is of silver and gold. with elaborate
scrolls while the hours are marked in large
Roman letters. The works are remaIk ably
complete even in a large silver bell with a
musical sound, which holds the works in the
skull when the watch is closed.
This curious old watch is still In perfect
order and when wound every day keeps ac-
curate time. 1t is too large to be worn and
was probably intended for a desk or private
altar

GARDEN CRAZE IN ENGLAND.
It Has Brought About the Cult Of the
Garden Ornament.

From the London Mail
The garden craze of the last few years,
for which we predicted a brief life, al
though a merry one has become what it's
real votaries thought it would-a source of
permanent interest.
This emphasis of enthusiasm has brought
about the cult of the garden ornament. and
those who are able to afford to do so are
searching far and wide for some piece of
sculpture that shall harmonic with the
style Of the gardens, be they Elizabethan,
Jacobean or of the Georgian period
Until one remembers the depredations of
the Puritans during the civil wars in this
country it is difficult to understand how it
is that the Elzabethan and Jacobean
periods did not produce greater number
of pieces of garden sculpture than they did
Most of the images of the Jacobean gardens
the Puritans demolished. particularly If
they were lead. very favorite metal in
ornaments. Lead of every kind was precious
for the formal ion of bullets.
Lead images are now very highly priced
for garden ornaments, and so are those
made of terra Gotta, and, of course, Of
marble and stone.
den ornaments In the days of long ago that
did not appeal alone to the beauty loving
eye, but aroused the practical joker of the
period. Any one who has visited the car s
summer palace at Peterhof, near st. Peters
burg will remember in the garden Of one of
fountains. as they are called. innocent look
ing marble seats, upon which no sooner has
the visitor sought repose than he Is
drenched with shower of water. Such
trick arbors and trick seats were quite a
feature of the gardens OF long ago.

NEW YORK, November %. 1904.
New York continues to have politics after
the election. Judge Parkers coming to the
city to live has nothing to do with the
continued interest. for he is not looked on as
factor in public affairs. The politics
which now takes attention concerns chief
ly the republicans.
New York is to have postmaster and
that causes as much excitement among the
party workers as it does in a country viii
lage. The community as whole, however,
is not disturbed over this matter. Business
men are satisfied that the President will
make competent selection and that the
abuses in the post Office mana cement dur
ing the last few years will not be repea ted.
because 1t will be administered with more
regard to the necessities of the service
and with less regard for certain local po-
ltical combinations.
The undisguisable feature of the republic
can situation is that there are still two
factions. In spite of much smooth and con-
cilatory talk the Plat wing and the Odell
wing of the party are not pulling together.
If they not drawing further apart 1t Is
because the respective leaders have not yet
fully matured their plans.
