A SILVER WIND SHIELD.

Modern merchandising is quite as
wonderful in it's achievements as was
the work of the gifted fairy with the
inevitable magic wand in the child
story book. When the good fairy
wanted anything she only had to wave
the wand and wish for 1T. Nowadays
the good fairy, which, of course, is
mans better half, whenever she wants
anything simply wishes for it 'out
loud" and her servant-man. with the
ingenious fundamentally materia-
Lies her desires. An up-to-date house
keeper was serving tea on the porch,
and being annoyed by the blowing OF
the alcohol flame under the kettle by
the wind, wished for the wind to cease;
but as her companion was mere man
and not fairy he could interpose only
a shield improvfsed from a convenient
The idea was successful and
gave rise to the silver wind shield
which is now the accompaniment OF
every up-to-date tea service.

THE MEN BOILED, TOO.

Some men who had boosted rashly
that they knew how to cook were be-
guiled by their wives to attend an
evening reunion.
No sooner had these willy women as
sembled their braggart husbands than
they produced a list of questions and
demanded answers thereto. The ques-
lions We're:
Row long does it take to boil: %
Potatoes? (2) Asparagus CD Beets
(4 Corn? 90 CauIif1ower? co.
Cabbage? Cd Celery (S) Carrots?
90 Lima beans? O0) Onions? I'D
Peas? Q2) Parsnips? O3) Spinach?
GD Summer squash? QO Turnips?
G6) Tomatoes?
When the men had wrested with
these conundrums until they had al
, most reached the boiling point them
selves they We're presented with other
slips of paper, one to each man. In
these the unhappy husbands were COM
manded to perform as follows:
Broil oysters; cream oysters; cook
bacon; make potato salad; cut bread
slice ham; make coffee; get out dishes;
Set table: help set table; wait on table;
clear table; wash dishes; wipe dishes.
Three chatting dishes were brought
placed on a large kitchen table. Then
the men We're set to work, says What
TO Eat, and given one half hour in
which to prepare the supper. 1t was a
terrible thirty minutes; for the wom-
en- unfeelingly remained in the parlor
and initiated Nero, by playing the
piano while things burned.
For use in case of emergency the fol-
lowing hints are given by way of ans
wers to the boiling questions:
II, twenty-five to thirty minutes; 2,
fifteen to thirty minutes; 8, forty-five
minutes; 4. twelve to twenty minutes;
B. twenty to forty minutes; 6, thirty
minutes; Z, twenty to thirty min

TO FOIL THE THIEF.

1t is becoming more and more difficult
to prevent the theft of wearing apparel
in public places where it is necessary
to remove hat and overcoat. An inter-
esting device that should solve the
problem has been patented by a New
Jersey man. One attendant could take
charge of a hundred of these garment
racks, and the liability of theft be pre-
vented. 1t will support hat, a coat
and an umbrella, and takes up COM
parativeIy little space. At the back of
the holder is a strip of wood, by which
it is secured to the wall. Projecting
from the back piece is curved arm
terminating in ball, a hat being sup
ported on the ball and a coat on the
hook directly beneath On the lower
part of the arm are two large hooks
which support the umbrella. The lock-
er is a novelty. When in a closed posi-
ton the locker is directly over the hat,
and so close that the hat cannot be re-
moved. The hat being locked, the coat
is also locked. The depending hook on
the locker also serves to prevent the
of the umbrella. A paddock is
used to fasten the locker in position.
