VIII be made of beautiful dark mahogany,
with brass mountings, but If one wants to
be correct to a degree these should be sur
rounded with the dainty openwork brass
galerie, which Is such feature Of the Louis
XVI work and is never met with in the
heavy, ungracious furniture of the empire.
The walls of the apartment are hung with
brocade, and no light is used save that
from candles set in sconces.
The English Adams brothers, who were
celebrated architects first and only interior
and furniture designers afterward, because
of their love of perfect detail being car
ried out in the interiors as well as the eX-
teriors of their creations, have left some
charming examples of tables. In all their
designs there is the influence of the Greek
cult evidenced in slender lines, festoons of
delicate wreaths caught up with rams
heads or husks tied with ribbon. These
pure styles We're very acceptable after
the gilded excuses of the later French
school and the Chinese freaks of much
of the Chippendale work.
Next to easy chairs the pieces of furni-
ture which are most helpful in making a
room look attractive are writing tables
not the absurd affairs without the accom-
mediation expected of such things, but real
ly useful and ornamental tables we'll stock
ed with all the necessary writing materials
The dainty Louis writing tables combine
elegance with usefulness in a manner which
was so well understood by the French de-
signers and craftsmen.
Our own eighteenth century designers
for we Americans claim the privilege of
calling many of the great cabinetmaBers
models and although they were no copy
lists adapted the Louis styles TO suit Eng
fish taste, and we can trace the influence
IN most of their work.

Bacteria Which Emit Light.
From Public Opinion.


Eve already know fully thirty microbes
and about half as many mushrooms which
give light" says Prof II. Molisch In q re-
cent number of the Revue Scientinuue of
Paris. The cause of the phenomenon in
all cases is the same, very brilliant bac-
terium, the bacterium phosphoreum Both
the luminosity and the DEVELOPMENT OF tina
bacteria depend on the presence of certain
salts and organic bodies" Prof Molisch
says he has succeeded with the bacterium
phosphoreum IN making a practical and
useful lamp. For this purpose | took a
glass Erlenmeyer balloon containing from
two to four quarts, into which / placed
from two hundred to four hundred cubic
centimeters of gelatne with salt and pep
tone. The mouth of the vessel was closed
with a cotton plug and then the whole
was sterilized. After cooling and before
the gelatine had become solid 1 planted a
culture of bacterium phosphoreum. Then
holding the balloon nearly horizontal [
turned 1t slowly under spigot of cold
water; In a few minutes the gelatine had
covered the entire inner surface The bal
loon was then left IN cCol room, and at
the end of q day two the entire inner
surface was covered with numerous COLI
onies of bacteria. The vessel now emitted
a beautiful bluish-green light aRd I have
recently found that the intensity of the
lamp may be greatly Increased If the bac-
terra be sown in points about the centimeter
apart and If there be added to the gelatine
from one to two per cent of peptone and
one-half per cent of glycerine. Such q
lamp keeps It's brilliancy for about fifteen
days in a cool room, and by Its light one
may tell the time, read the degrees on a
thermometer and read ordinary print. The
light Is very economical and almost lacking
in heat rays. and | think 1t would be of
great value In powder mills, in mines and
other places

the lieu du roi," and both these royal per-
sonages presided at their separate tables,
surrounded by ar admiring group of cour-
tiers. Apropos of cards, 1t is interesting to
note that during the revolution some rabid
fanatics took exception TO the ordinary
pack of cards on account OF the kings and
queens represented on them and tried to
replace them with pictures of more demo-
cratic tendency. The painted royalties were
more difficult to overthrow than the real
ones, and they have relgned alike under
monarchy and republic.
But to come back to.the card table there
Is one example known as the table q tros
ms, which is particularly interesting from
the variety of its uses. Round in shape
and supported on four straight legs, these
tables were usually made of dark mahog-
any, bound with brass, in the style Of the
furniture to which Jacob has given his
name. They date from the latter part of
the reign Of Louis XVI At first: glance
they do not seem to differ from an ordinary
table, but on closer inspection one notices
that they have brass galerie that reaches
only to the top of the table instead of ris-
ing above it. Another difference is in the
top, which is of the same wood as the rest
OF the table, but Is covered with q large
center of morocco that lifts up py two lit
tie ribbon strings and turns over. The re-
verse side is covered with green cloth If
however, this top is taken away there Is
found beneath an ordinary table covered
with marble with an outstanding gaIerte

Animals Play is Exercise.

From the Outing Magazine.
The relaxed, rhythmical movements so
common among animals at play, the gam
boiling of lambs. the play of kittens and
many similar animal activities are initiated
by man IN the primitive dances which form
so large a part in the social and religious
life of all aboriginal peoples. These mo-
tiOns OF leaping. swinging, swaying and
twisting OF the body have, all of them, a
most intimate and powerful influence upon
the body's activities organic and muscular
Rolling Is a form % exercise which is a
favorite with many animals and IS espe-
claIly rracticed for the purpose of relieving
fatigue. Rolling is peculiarly enjoyable
and grateful 70 the animal because il pro-

Giles. the depleted organs ana the slow NOV
Ing circulation; but because as the animal
rolls the firm pressure OF the ground upon
his body constitutes a most effective and
agreeable massage.

We are indebted to Louis XVI for the In

many hostess are fond of seating their
guests when a large dinner party is 'on. -
The Grande Monarque ordered this shape
OF dining table to be made for promoting
conversation by bringing him in closer prox-
| unity with larger number of his guests
than was possible with the long, straight
dinner board.
At that time in France there was very
pronounced taste for clever mechanical con-
trivances applied to furniture by which an
article was made either to hide its real
purpose or TO serve several different uses
at once. The most popular of these de-
vices was the ''soleil' table, called out
of compliment to the monarch by its maker
George Gay. 1t was much like small

a number of cunning springs by which 1t
could be transformed into a writing or read

mirers the sacrifice OF gold lace from the
coats they were wearing. Wool work and
tapestry was then, as 1t Is today, the ia
vorite Of the French lady, and Marie An
toinette must have often sat by her tri-
coteuse occupied with her needle while
Nine. Campan read to her. The table of
this unfortunate queen was ornamented
with the lilies of France and a dolphin
formed a trophy on the lower ledge. The
less aristocratic of these little work ia
bles are more simple in design, but all
have a special charm, and an aroma of ro-
nance still seems to cling about their
fragile woodwork.
The tricoteuse is oblong-indeed, almost
boat shaped-and is usually made of ma
hogany.- The upper tray is surrounded by
an outstanding piece of wood, generally
bound with brass and about one or two
inches high, thus insuring the working i'm
pements against the danger Of being swept
off. One side of this little ledge is fitted
with hinges to be let down by the fair en-
broidress when sitting at her work. Be-

Denounced by Socialists.
The language of the socialists as might
have been anticipated, is that of unmeas-
ured denunciation. The yorwarts on the
authority of Prof. Adolf Wagner. draws
contrast between the dispropordonate
amount which the empire raises by In
direct taxation affecting the mass of the
people and the amount which is raised by
direct taxation, hitherto the prerogative
OF the separate states In Prussia for ex-
ample, direct taxati, n works out to six
marks per head of the population, while
the incidence of indire It taxation is III
marks. The dsproport on is increased by
a calculation according to which the reve-
nue. of the Prussiap state railways, after
a deduction of So marks per head, 10 the
revenues of the kingdom. In England, on
! the other hand, indirect taxation Is est-
mated at 1885, per head and direct taxation
at 25s.-a state of things which. according
to the socialist organ. is no doubt inequit-
able, but not so bad as in Germany.
The socialists also complain that the pro-
posed imperial death duties are not heav-
fly enough assessed, and they argue that
If in England. with population of 5000
900 these duties yield 330,OO0,00O marks
1887, 500, COO, they ought in Germany, with
a population of 60,00o,O00, to yield at least
go 600 600 marks ($62, SOC, 0o0) ana not a
naltry 72O00,OOO marks ($1S.0O0,0O0).
There is Considerable difference of opin-
m with regard to the elaborate schemes
fresh taxation The organs of the cler-
Gals are convinced that taxation presses
with undue severity upon the working
classes, for whom beer and tobacco are
almost necessaries of life. The radical
press reminds the clericals that during the
last five years the reichstag, on the cleri-
cal initiative, passed two resolutions
which were intended to prevent the I'M
due incidence of inland taxation or of Gus
toms duties upon the working classes, and
| 1t appeals to the clerical party not to be
| faithless to their principles on the present
occasion. The Frankfurter Ze!tung de-
clares war upon the whole scheme. and
considers that If 1t is maintained by the
government 1t may very well result In one
of those domestic crises which Prince

The view IS toward the south, overlooking
the waters of Carlingford lough an arm of
the Irish sea. The obelisk was erected by
the officers of the Chesapeake force and
the gentry Of County Down. His old regi-
ment, the Goth, placed a memorial window
to his memory in the parish church at Ros-
trevor. He has also a monument in St
Paurs, London. and another at Halifax
Nova Scotia, where his remains are inter
red.
To still further honor his memory a royal
warrant was issued in 1915 which ordained
that his widow and descendants might
henceforward use the name of 'Ross-pf-
Bladensburg.
The present representative of the family
is the generals grandson, John Foster G.
Ross-of- Bladensburg, C.P., D.L., J.P. He
was born in 1S4S. and has achieved some
distinction IN the army. the public service
and as a writer. He served in the Suakin
campaign in 1885, receiving medal and
clasp and the khedive's star in recognition
of his bravery. He has held various secre-
t2rial and diplomatic positions and Is now
chief commissioner of the Dublin metropoli~
tan police. He is the author Of a life of
the Marquis Of Hastings, a history of the
CclGstream Guards, IN which he held a COM
mission and a history of that organiza ton
in the Crimea. The name Ross is Gaelic
and signifies a peninsula or headland 1t
was probably adopted from the promontory
at ROstreVor.

from existing sources, and, above all from
the working of the new tariff 1t Is true
that the increased revenue from customs
under the new commercial treaties will
not become appreclable in the estimates iii
at least year hence, since there will have
peen unusually large imports under the
present tarlr, with view to avoiding the
Increased duties But ii Is nevertheless
believed in various quarters that the gov
eminent is taking advantage of the nresent
uncertainty with regard to this factor of
the revenue in order to impose fresh taxa
ton to an extent which could not he ms
titled by the actual necessities of the en-
pire.
People Do Not Control Revenue.
Another point which evokes the criticism
Of the constitutionalists is the fact that
more of the proposed new taxes furnishes
an instrument by which the representatives
Of the people In the reichstag might be en-
aoled to exercise parliamentary control
over the revenue and the burdens imposed
upon the taxpayer. In the German EN-
pre-, as IN Prussia the scale of tax once
imposed Is never diminished. Thus the
contemplated imperial death duties will n
adopted, continue to be imposed on a scale
which VIII yield at least their estimated re-
turns or 100000 marks (SIS O00 OOO)
whether that amount is required or NOT
In any particular year. In the case of the
separate states and their governments the
danger of high margin or uncom pensated
garded as consideration calculated to re-
strain the representatives of those states
in the federal council from helping to mi
tiate fresh expenditure on too great a scale.
The finances reform bill would rob this
danger OF half it's terrors by restricting the
uncompensated margin of matricular con-
tributions to a possible maximum OF % ono :
900 marks $1,000, 0O0).
Much violent criticism is directed against
the proposed increase in the duties on beer
and tobacco. and these articles of con-
sumption are being discussed as If thew
were practically neeessaries of life for the
German working classes The proposed
duties are also criticised from the point of
view of the brewing industry, which, con-
trary to semi-official statements, is shown
70 lave been seriously handicapped by re-
cent taxation in the Palatlnate, a district
which was taken by the semi-offlciaI writer's
as typical example of the ability of the
brewing industry to bear heavier burdens
1t Is anticipated by the critics Of the gov
eminent scheme that II the price of beer
be raised in north Germany the beer
drinker will become a spirit-drinker. At the
same time 1t is natural that those WHO
from one point of view or another are irl-
tercsted in the popular consump ton of beer
should repreach the government with per-

Picnicking in Winter.

From the Outing Magazine
The word picnic calls to mind pine groves
and babbIing brooks with the Thermometer
lodging around 81 degrees in the shade;
that one may be comfortable and coutented
on a winter picnic is not generally known.
You drive into the country five or Ten OF
twenty Mills to an Cd imam old inn
where they are always expecting sucn par
ties, If You can find 1t. Then you make
arrangements for a dinner at o'clock and
sally forth. You strap on the snow shoes,
pick up the coffee pail. the tin cups and
packages, and hike" for the woods.

Numerous camping places begin to pre-

this is the spot, setting forth the claim
that they have already begun to clear away
The snow. You place them properly on
their feet again. They dig the snow out
of their eyes and begin to see differently
SO you go farther into the woods. After
awhile you find sheltered spot and it Is
unanimously voted that you eat right there

You slip off the snow shoes and using
them as shovels. Scrape away the snow
