HOW TO ARRANGE CUT GLASS.
Mahogany Is the Best Setting That
Can Be Given to 1t.

Cut glass will not look much better
than those pretty good limitations that
are sold these days if it is put on the
sideboard or table without any thought
of making it show off to best advan-'
tage. In fact, most people do not
know that the surroundings have as
much to do with the beauty Of cut
glass as they have with most other
things in the world.
1t should never be placed among
~light-colored surroundings, particular
ly cream or yellow. In such a case
there is a noticeable lack of the rides
cence and brilliant sparkle that belong
to cut glass. A cabinet may be full
of beautiful pieces, but if they are
backed by a mirror the whole effect is
a mere tumble of crystal.
Mahogany is the real setting. Its
richness and dullness of tone are best
suited to bring out the beauty in the
glass. Then there should be plenty of
room. There is no handsomer effect
than a bowl or some cut-glass piece
standing on a mahogany shelf with no
other piece near it. A big display sim
ply robs every piece of it's beauty, and
if the housewife has not enough room
or too many pieces let her put some
away and change from time to time.

"PLANT STONES" OF VALUE.
Germs That Are Occasionally Found
in Certain Vegetable Growths.

Among the many strange things to
be found in the Philippine islands are
the %so-called plant stones encoun
tered now and again in certain .vegeta.
BILE growths.
The bamboo, for instance, according
to kultur and Natur, contains a stone
very similar to the opal, but on ac
count of the rarity with which it is
found, much more costly than the opal
In many thousand cane stalks cut
down and carefully examined there
may perhaps be one in which this
beautiful greenish-pink scintillatine
stone has been formed from the minute
particles of silicious deposit that i'm
parts it's intense hardness to the outer
covering of the cane. The bamboo
cane stone is known as Tabashirs.

stone-like secretion is found that is no,
inferior in brilliancy to the most beau
