A FIFTH AVENUE INTERIOR.

|. The house of MT. Jacob H. Schiff speaks for itself. It's interior is the work of the leading firm of interior de-
 corators in New York city; and it has
 been finished according to, the ideas
 which are recognized as the regular
 thing for this class of work It may, indeed, be regarded as an excellent
 type of the house which is designed
 and furnished for a man of great wealth. Its prevailing .. character is
 that of an impersonal and stately nla-
 gnificence. The proprietor of this
 house, following the example of rich
 men, has wished to have the interior
 of his dwelling a faithful reproduction
 of one or more of the authentic his-
 toric styles-a task which the decora-
 tor was well qualified to perform. The apartments are all examples of per iod" design and furnishings; and the occupants of the house have Loyalty supported the designer by not intrud- ing on the spectieale heterogeneous de- corations and conveniences.
 The drawing room, for instance, is a complete realization of this point of view in interior decoration. It is a. | room belonging almost exclusively to the Louis XIV. period, both in the des- ign of the walls and in the character of the furnishing. The walls are, of
 course, panelled to the ceiling, and are finished a rich ivory white, The gold of the raised decorations is subdued
 to dull tone, and thereby loses the
 merely gaudy effect, so often chaar- acteristic of gilt decorations. The dra- peries of silk velour are embroidered in gold and show the same rose crim-
 son color as the carpet, which is in
 several tones. The furniture is uphol-
 stered partly in the velour, and partly
 in tapestry. The large panels on the
 walls are filled with silk tapestries
 surrounded by rose-erimson bord CT.
 These tapestries, it is interesting to note, are of American make. They were
 wrought at Williambridge, N.s r., from
 designs after the style of Boucher,
 specially prepared for this room. The only object in the apartment which

musical. Chime whistles are Tow ex- tensiveiy used on locomotives. with re- suits far less disturbing to the com mh2ities through which the railroads run than were the sounds of the Ioco- motives whistles once commonly used. Chime whistles cost more than plain whistles, but the use of them is gen. orally spreading. The hacking bird whistle is one that is made by an ar engagement of its valves to produce not a single, but a varying note.
 The organ whistle, is made with an opening in the bell like that in the side of a church organ pipe, giving to the whistle a somewhat organ like eheet. A great organ whistle might be set up on a factory in village for a nFe alarm; Sonorous whistle that could be heard for three, four or five miles throughout the surrounding country. There are people, I know, that don't like the siren whistle, but It has its uses and it's advantages. A siren gives a boat Individuality, and we can indentify an boat carrying one by the sound of it's whistle. But are not all strens alike in sound? No, not even in the same sizes. You know you can build dozen locomotives from the same patterns and the same stock of matericals, and yet no two with steam of siren whistles. No two, even of exactly the same size, will sound exactly alike. There will be difference enough between them so that they can, be distinguished, at least by those familiar with their sounds, when the whistles are in use. Kansas City Journal.

SIRE TO SON.
Boy Can Sometimes Learn From Hi
 Father

When you catch them young enough you can usually make your sons proft by your own experience
 Afterwards, it's differsr1t. A lady tells how her son was made to protlt by what his father had learned:
 stMy husband was always fond of coffee, and after his business took him fredrenfly into a German community he drank it more, with the result that his kidneys became affected, and he suffered greatly with pains and de- spondency, till, as he says, coffee nearly killed mel So he stopped using it. and began to drink Postum Coffed. It cured him; and in @ very short time his kidnsys resumed their normal func- tions. his pains were allayed, and the despondency which had nearly driven hirn crazy ceased to trouble him.
 -"My little boy, a year old, had suf- fered ever since he was w'saned, from stomach and bowel troubles. He could not properly digest the milk he drank. It passed out of his bowels in hard ,lun1ps, sometimes large and again like small pellets, frequently producing diarrhoea, and then we would have to call in the doctor. But the trouble re- turned, again and again.
 ssWe used to give him a taste of Pos- tl1m Coffee occasionally, and as saw that he ,relished it and realized how much good 1t had done his father, began to put little in his bottle of milk, The effect was so salutary that I gradually increased the quantity, till at last I used only enough milk to give it color. H= thrived wonderfully on it. He is over two years old now, and his digestion is all right. Postum has made him uncommonly large and strong and healthy. give him a bot tie full -four times a day."

 ''In some localities" said the repre- sentative of whistle manufactured, they now use on surface cars, in place fthe gong, air whistles blown by compressed air pumps into tank carried on the car The are used on the Leavenworth electric and some park cars in Kansas City. The afr whistle is similar in design and ap- pearance to the details of its con- struction and in the adjustment of it's parts, to adapt it to the use of air in- stead of steam. On many power boats not driven by steam there are now used air whistles These air whistles are blown by compressed air from a tank kept filled by a pump operated with power from that supplied for driving the boat. or the beats ma~ chinery. But we supply also nowa- days independent air whistles equip ments consisting of tank, whistle, pump, and .gae, the pump of which can be operated by hand; and such outfits are not costly. We are now selling air whistles for automobiles.
 Steam whistles are now made of various kinds, and they are made, of course, in many sizes, and they are made also in various proportionate di- l to the various uses for which the whistles are designed. Speaking of steam whistles in general you want, to carry sound 8 distance, a whistle with bell proportionately long to its diame- l ter; while for nearby warning not only will small whistle do, but a whistle with bell proportionately short. So for steamship requiring a whis- tie that can be heard miles away, you want not only a whistle of large li- 1 ameter, but one with a proportionately long bell, blown with plenty of pres sure; while, for instance, for a steam fire engine running in city streets, a small whistle with a proportionately short bell, a whistle that can be heard a few blocks away, will serve.
 "We make not only plain whistles
 but chime whistles, mocking bird whis. l ties, organ whistles and sirens. A blair whistle will do for the great steam | ship, and plain whistles, big and lit tie, are sold for use everywhere. But we sell now great numbers of chime whistles for various uses. The chime whistle has within its bell not single l chamber, but three chambers, the bien. ded tones of which produce. not the ole time screech, but sound far more

Of Noted Connecticut Twins Ceiebraa
 ted.
 l At their country home oil Great Till. in the town of Oxford, New Haven county. Julius H. and Junius N. Bsn- ham, famous as the Benhadn twins, quietly observed their eighty-e eighth birthday on July 8. There is no formal observance of the. occasion which the twins in late years have allowed to pass without ado. pr. W. B. White. who is their physician, usually tenders them 8 little dinner and the three get together as friends and enjoy meals
 Junius H. Benham was recently upon the operating table for the first time in this long, happy and healthy life, an operation for cataract having been performed upon his right eye by a New York specialist assisted by pr. White. The operation was entirely successful and Mir. Benhadn has recovered from its effects and is now as well as ever again. In a short time another opera tion upon tfna left eye will be necessa- ry for the same affection. The only trouble that will follow the operations is that Mr. Benham will have to wear glasses, perhaps for the rest of his days.
 Both the brothers, who are retired builders of state wide prominence and now extensive property owners, are in perfect health. Constitutionally there is not the slightest trouble, both having powerful physiques and in state of health that should permit them to reach the century mark. During the warm weather recently they have been taking life easy at Great Hill. They have aworked hard ill their younger days and are now reaping the fruits of it. but they still lead simple life.-4 Bridgeport Standard.

GEORGE WASHINGTON AND CHINA.

LIVERY little while we hear somebody announce that
~ "China is awakening and thinking people promptly
begin to wonder what will happen to the world when the
"Yellow peril" really opens its eyes to wideawakeness.
Just at present, China has discovered George Washing. )
ton. and students of geography are learning these facts
about the Revolutionary war and Americans in general:
FfThere was at that time a Washington, an Ameri-
can, born in Delaware in the ninth year of YungChing.
: = " When small he had great views, both in regard
to civil and military affairs, and excelled in strength and
courage. At the time when all the people rebened against
the English, they pressed Washington to become their
general. he then Immediately entered on his office.
Without arms, ammunition or provisions, Washington
stimulated his countrymen to action by a righteous spirit.
He pitched his camp near the provincial city. At the same
time the English general had collected his ships Of war
just outside of the city. Suddenly a great wind arose
and scattered them. Washington attacked and took
possession Of the city. Afterward the English general col
lected his forces and drove Washington from his posi-
ton.
~'rAt this his soldiers were greatly terrified and wished
to be disbanded, but he, with the same spirit as at first,
having collected and united his army, again attacked the
English with success. =
"The Americans are all descendants of Europeans,
mostly from England, Holland and France. Of these
three kingdoms those from England are far the most nu-
merous, and, therefore, their language and customs are
the same as those of the English. The immigrants re-
-ceived their lands for cultivation from the aborigines,
where they were willing, and where they were unwilling
they removed to other places.
'FTheir merchants and mechanics are all white men.
They are mild and kind in disposition, but c%onsiderate
and skinful in trade. They are fond of making their re-
ligion a matter of conversation and of instruction. Their
schools are everywhere. Their learned men are divided
into three classes-ministers, physicians and lawyers"
The Information" might be worse, and at least it
shows that the Chinese are trying to teach something
about the outside world, which has for so long been a
sealed book, even to their learned men.
