uses Of books-there are all sorts of
purposes for which they are got: up.
For dining-roems they are attractive
shelves for the placing Of especially,
pretty bits of china, or for odd collec-

rack for plates, with plenty of room on
the shelf in front of several other
pieces, and with hooks hung from the
top for cups to be put on.
They are as satisfactory for dens as
for dining rooms, used, perhaps, in the
den for the displaying of treasures in
the shape of cupios which almost every
DOdy mas a new or. For dens, too, the
closed shelves are good-a glass or
wooden door closing in the contents
which are apt to be all sorts Of good
things, placed "ready to hand'' for
impromptu lunches and midnight feasts.
A separate shelf can be finished so as
to be set upon the top of bookcase

Amiens, France, Oct. 15.-The
Trades Union congress, at its clos

$50 to s votes motion to enter into
permanent relations with the social
lists, and adopted resolution to hold
aloof from politics and devote the
energies Of the trades unions for the
present to the amelioration of the
condition of the workmen a reduc-

the adherence of the congress to the

the trades unionists, namely, the ex-
preparation of capital and social re-
organization on basis by which the
unions would ultimately become pro-
ducers and distributors.
