Sold His Wife For 5000.

Edwin A. Tucker, who had been suing
Eugene B. Dudley, man over 60 years
of age, for $50. 900 for the alienation o.
the affections of his wife, was confronted
in New York yesterday with release h'
had signed year ago for 5000, by the
terms of which he was to have no fur
Their claims on the affections of his wife.
Tucker had to admit he had signed
the release and that the 5000 had been
given to him by Dudley. That being
the case, Justice Dickey Immediately
brought the trial to stop and non-suit-
ed the plaintiff.
Tucker is 35 years old and his wife is
few years younger. She is a very
pretty brunette. Tucker charged that
Dudley had been giving her sealskin
sacqu's and jewelry. He also charged
that she had accompanied him on a trip
South. Dudley admitted this on the
stand, saying that Mrs. Tucker had pre-
viously nursed him through an illness
and that it was at the instance of Tucker
that Mrs. Tucker went South with him.

tate bamboo and upholstered in jap
anese mating, is always popular.
Among staple furnishings nothing is
more durable, especially for porches.
than the Delaware double caned maple
furniture, in which the rocking chairs
and armchairs are especially attractive
in their plainness and easiness. These
are either left in their natural wood
finish or painted green or red.
A good many people prefer willow
furniture to rattan, which it resembles,
but is lighter and woven more coarsely.
Many novelties in combinations and in
viting lounging chairs, touches, settees
and swings are made in both of these
styles.
In wooden furniture, the mission
style and it's notifications are almost
universal. Among the noticeable pieces
are screens with woven rush panels and
a chair whose round back of rattan
turns over to form a teatable. An
other similar combination hall chair and
table has its top covered with felt for
cards.
Screens are almost indispensable in
the lake home, the city roof garden or
the exposed porch. The chief require
ments are that they shall be strong,
heavy enough to stand a strong gust
of wind, and plain. They are used
both to cut off the view from without
and as windbreaks. Prints can be let
into the upper portion of the panels
and various little handy r~eceptacles can
be provided within the frames.

Vines for Porches.

The fitting up Of the porch has be-
come as important as that of any room
in the house. Screens of hardy or an
nual vines cost little more than the
trouble of caring for them, and when
they are suited to their position they
lmpart more than the mere act of Civ
ing shade. A cobea scandens, planted
at the posts of the entrance to the
veranda, bestows a distinctive touch
with its rich, dark leaves and curious
b~ell-shaped blossoms. The Japanese
morning glory gives a delightful sur
prise picture every morning if planted
at an east corner. Wild cucumber
rivals the clematis in luxuriant bloom
ing, and makes rapid temporary shad-
ing, while permanent vines of honey
suckle, woodbine and ivy are making a
slower progress.
The garden may be brought to the
porch by plant boxes, fastened along
the railing or edge of the floor. The
boxes, to be a fit setting for their con.
tents, should be painted the same color
as that against which they stand, or,
in the words of the housepainter. be
"painted OUT
Pieces of furniture that remain on
the piazza at night may be rendered
lmpervious to dampness by a coat of
spar varnish, or, if paint is to be ap
piled, the outside variety. The shell
lacked bamboo screens are are otter
glaringly discordant with a ouiet-col
ored house, but two coats of paint tt
match the body of the building viii
make them inconspicuous. The samt
plan may be followed with chairs an
tables that are not desirable enough il
shape to be made noticeable.

A Kitchen Convenience.

A frst-class kitchen cabinet is 81 great
convenience to every housekeeper, both
on account of the number of steps which
it saves by having the kitchen utensils
all together, and on account of the
clearly and sanitary condition in which
the same utensils may be kept.
The cabinet makes an attractive piece
of kitchen furniture, either closed or
open. The upper part has shelves and
compartments for the usual spices, flaw
oring extracts, rice, cereals, tea and cof-
fee, also space for the smaller cooking
utensils. 1t is closed by doors so that
all dust is excluded. The lower part
forms a table for kneading and mix
ing, while below the table are bins for
-four and cupboards for miscellaneous
articles. The housekeeper who has linn
tied kitchen space, or who feels the lack
of closets and cupboards, will find the
Kitchen cabinet most useful.
