A White Bedroom.

Few women realize the possibilities
from an artistic point of view of the
common, cheap. unbleached muslin,
though most of us realize its dura-
bility.
A young girl has just finished doing
over a room that had to be done with
in given sum, and that a small one.
The chairs are of willow, which she
painted an ivory white to match the
woodwork
Her walls she covered with a paper
in the same tone, relieved by trailing
pale pink roses, marking it off in
panels.
But the browning glory was the cur
tains of unbleached muslin that hung
in straight folds at the sides with
a deep valance across the top.
The unusual feature of the curtains
consisted of the vine matching the
wallpaper and cut from cretonne that
bordered all the edges. This applied
border was basted carefully into place
and then stitched on the machine.

1t was unique deed of heroism
that won for Miss Ernst, of Philadel-
phia. one of the commissions silver
medals. Two years ago she was TAX
ing an outing in the country with a
friend. Barry e. Schoenut, lad of 16.
The two tramped through the woods
and along the side of a rocky ravine.
The latter gave but poor footing to
pedestrians, and in jumping across a
rift between two boulders Schoenut
slipped and fell. There was an angry
whirr and rattle of sound, and before
he could save himself the fangs of a
rattlesnake were fastened in Schoe-
nuts arm. The reptile darted back
into his hole beneath the rock, but al
most instantly his victims arm began
TO swell and turn black. Thoroughly
terrified, Schoenut declared that he
was dying, and implored his compan-
ion to save herself from possible dan.
ger. Miss Ernst, however, tore the
young mans sleeve from his arm, and,
applying her lips to the wound made
by the rattler, tried to suck out the
poison. This she did at imminent
peril to herself, as she knew, because
a cut on her own lip brought her into
the most dangerous contact with the
poison. Once during the operation the
intrepid girl cut cash in Schoenut's
arm, ito make the blood come faster,
as she afterward expressed 1t. The
boy tainted at the sight OF his own
blood, and it was only by beating him
in the face that Miss Ernst succeeded
in reviving him and keeping him NOV
ing. Half dragging, half carrying him.

Ralph Young, a colored boy. broke
through the ice on the Great Wicomi-
co river, Virginia. two years ago.
Young had strayed away from party
of skaters further up the river, and
ventured upon ice that had not been
tried. II was a lonely section of the
country, and when the boy fell into
the water his cries for help were
heard only by white woman, Mrs.
Sadie l. Crabbe, who was walking
along the bank of the river Selling a
plank which lay new by. Mrs. Crabbe
endeavored to reach the struggling
negro. So eager was she in this at
tempt to save the colored boys life
that she ventured too far out on the
ice, which broke beneath her. Young,
at whose piteous appeal she had taken
one step too far, evidently forgot his
own plight when he saw Mrs. Crabbe
fall into the water and tried to save
her. Both the white woman and the
colored boy. however. were drowned.
A bronze medal has been sent by the
commission to Mrs. Crabbes husband
in commemoration of her bravery.
The sum of $4,000 also has been ap-
propriated to be used in the education
and upbringing of Mrs. Crabbe's chill.

under way in his little craft. He
hoped TO get near enough to the barge

BRAVE DEEDS THAT HAVE
WON CARNEGIE MEDALS

New York.-Two years ago Andrew
Carnegie conceived the novel idea OF
discovering and rewarding true hero
ism wherever it may occur. For this
purpose a hero fund commission was
appointed whose preliminary labors
have now been completed. Deeds of
daring. whether by land or sea, in the
effort to save life. have received due
recognition in this way, while the
task of the commission has resulted,
besides. In bringing together series
OF little tales OF human pluck, endur-
ance and self-abnegation. the reading
of which is bound To give an uplifting
sense of some of the nOblest qualities
of men and women when brought face
70 face with the peril that, at some
supreme moment, threatens the lives
of their fellow beings.
OF the 63 cases Of heroism which
the commission. after prolonged and
careful investigation, has deemed
worthy of public recognition, the fol-
lowing have been selected on account
of the novel human interest which
characterizes them. They tell of the
courage and humanity of men, women,
and even children, in all walks of life,
and in every section of the United
States. Not every hero thus chron-
fcled has succeeded in the rescue that
he has planned while numbers have
lost their own lives in the effort to
save the lives of others. 1t forms a
striking record altogether unique
among human annals, and may be
taken as a true and lasting tribute to
the seIf-sacrificing love of man for
man.
