TO RENOVATE WICKER
CHAIRS.

To renovate a shabby wicker chair
first cleanse the wicker thoroughly, US.
ing scrubbing brush and plenty of
soap and water. When dry, the chair
can be vanished, or it can be greatly
improved with a coating or two OF
green stain.
For the seat make a cushion of green
linen or a pretty greenish cretonne
Another cushion for the back may be
liked, and is easily made. Make it of
the same material az the seat cushion
and Of bag shape. longer than wide
1t may be fastened to the chair by
means of tapes sewed at the top and
bottom.
II loose cushion be preferred, a
pretty yellow linen would look nice
and contrast well with the green.
Make the case slip fashion, 30 that IL
can be- easily washed. An unbleached
calico bag will be good enough for the
down with which the cushions are
filed.

TO RENEW OLD MISSION.
San Juan Capistrano VIII Live Again
After Long Years of Silence.

All who have heard OF the picturesque
old Franciscan Missions of California
will be interested to learn that San
Juan Capistrano, the most poetic Of all
these ruined structures, which contrib
ute so much to the foreign look of "our
Italy, is soon again to be made the
centre of religious activity, and that
after nearly a century of neglect its
buildings are to be restored to their
original estate.
This mission is on the railway line
between Los Angeles and San Diego
and by reason of being visible from
the railroad is to Eastern travellers per
haps the best known of all California
missions, except Santa Barbara and
San Gabriel. which are among the
regulation sights for visitors to South
ern California. With the restoration
Of San Juan Capistrauo and the re-
sumption of residence there by the
Franciscan Brotherhood. it. too. will
no doubt soon become a tourist resort
The first year Of the American In
dependence saw work begun upon this
ancient edifice i'm what was then vast

The site is in lovely. sequestered val

In prehistoric days Vesuvius was
probably twice as high, the top having
been blown off centuries before the
eruption that destroyed Pompeii. Since
the year 1881 Vesuvius has never been
wholly at rest. In that year is, 900 lives
were lost. The clouds of steam that
came from the rush OF water into the
hot mass below the surface condensed
and fell in boiling rain that scorched
everything with which il came in con-
tact. The very sea drew back the skirts
OF its dark blue robe and then swept
forward again far beyond it's old limits.
The last OF the great commissions be-
fore the recent one occurred in 1872
Then. like this one, there was a great
lava flow, together with throwing up OF

THE LOVE OF ALARIC.

Beneath the outflung branches of q
mighty oak tree, q giant who had
stood sentinel in that lonely dip on
the wolds for twice three hundred
years, two men were standing, their
figures made more or less distinct by
the rays OF a big, conical lantern Of
antique pattern that the elder OF the
two carried in his gnarled and blood
less fingers, figure strangely akin
to the giant tree beneath which he
stood.
An aged man was Zachary boy, his
back bent by years of hard labor such
as few OF the modern generation of la
borers know; man who had been an
experienced farmland. while the man
beside him, his master, was still a
pulling infant.
The old fellow set down his lantern
on the iron-bound earth. His quaver-
ing voice stabbed the silence. Now,
do zee harken unto me, Master Alaric."

THB VESUVIAN TERROR.
Vivid Description of Great Erup-
ton Which Rivals Pom
pei'S Destruction.
The Famous Italian Novelist, Marion
Crawford, Tells of the Terrors of
the Big VoIcano-ffistory of For
.mer Eruptions.

The whole world looked on awe
struck, at the recent fierce outbreak of
stupendous and devastating force In
the Bay of Naples The eruption of
Mount NeSuviuS is believed to be the
most destructive since the days of Pom
peii, A. D., 10.
The whole story of the eruption OF
1906 is sorrowful tale of stricken vic
tins, devastated vineyards, ruined
homes and terror-stricken, flying peo-
pie, and Ii is hard to realize that the
same scenes have been enacted there 80
many times before.
Pliny, the noted ancient historian.
described the eruption OF Vesuvius in
the year 70, in a series of letters to
Tacitus. This letter described 4 dark
cloud rising in a single pillar from the
crater OF the mountain and from this
column spread, and upon 1t rested
q great roof. built by invisible carpen-
tiers. Resting ever on its single pillar.
Ike great mushroom, this roof shut
out the sky from all those wide acres
extending sixteen miles away. The
light ashes of the fire from Vesuvius
descended like snow upon Pompeii,
burying it to great depths. Hercu-
ianeum was drowned in a sea of vol
canic mud.
Those who have read the letters of
Pliny find similarity in the description
written by the noted novelist, Marion
Crawford. There is probably no other
American living who is so we'll ac-
qua!nted with conditions as they exist
In Italy. He has taken up his per-
manent abode in the Italian hills. The
