Homemade Desk Pads.

A desk pad that, with little care
and dexterity, can be made at home
successfully was seen among some
new things not long ago.
Two pieces of cardboard, about 20
by IA inches in size, were pasted to-
gether at one of the longer edges, max
ing what looks like a pageless book
cover. This was covered by a piece of
Powered cretonne neatly turned at the
edges, and these raw edges covered by
a piece of firm white paper, which ex-
tended over the entire inside of the
pad. Two or more pieces of blotting
paper were inserted and fastened by
ribbons passed through both covers
and blotting paper and tied on the
outside. A piece of ribbon of the same
shade, but wider, was fastened so that
it ran diagonally across each cover
and, tying, held the leaves in place.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Prunes are greatly improved by be.

To preserve fish sprinkle powdered
borax over it lightly and place in a
good situation.
After using cold-water starch let
1t settle, then pour off the water and
allow the starch to dry. When it is
dry 1t can be replaced In the starch
box for future use.
If old keys are kept in a box by

trunk or other receptacle, the key to
which has been lost.
In papering room, remember that
large patterns and dark colors will
make 1t appear smaller, while plain
or striped paper, if light hue, will
give an impression of increased size.
A good floor stain that goes right
into the wood and is very durable is
made of linseed oil colored with
ground burnt umber Rub thoroughly
into the boards with flannel pad, and
next day polish with beeswax and tur-
pentine.
The under oven in the range is a
most convenient place in which to
keep irons. They may be taken hot
from the stove and placed there where
they are out of the way. They are
usually warm when taken out, thus
heating up rapidly.

DESIGNS IN CHATTING DISHES.
Very Attractive Are Some Of the Sets
Seen in City Stores.

The newest chatting dishes are fur
nished with tray to match and a
screen that curves three-quarters of
the way around the flame. Some of
them are of cut glass, when the set is
of gold or silver; others are OF or
binary plate glass, when the dish is
nickel, copper or brass. The screens
protect the lamp from vagrant
draughts, and they hasten the cooking
of the dish so much that the hungry
guests do not become impatient.
Most attractive sets are shown this
year made of brass and trimmed, as
it were, with plated band of copper.
The colors of the two metals combine
well, and the set is handsomer than
those made of plain brass, which is
really too yellow for the purpose.
Some nickel sets are bound in cop
per, too, and they are so durable that
it is quite worth while to invest in
one.
A few screens for brass chatting
dishes are made entirely of the same
metal, beaten as the Cairo finger bowls
are; and, while they are very hand
some, they rather tend to exclude the
company from the rites of rabbit"

his liquor over on the other side and
there he was. He said: Such, gentle
men of the jury, is the false argument
that will be brought forward against
this inoffensive gentleman, and so
forth, and then he proceeded to clear
him, The young lawyer had to drink
because the old Teller set him the ex-

he had about three drinks. There was.

THAT so? The reports of the life

say it's on account of sanitation. But

that respect in the country. But here

An old log distillery, famous through,
out the country, had Just been DESTROYED
by hre, and several men, sitting in the
courthouse, We're talking about the
passing away of this landmark, dating
back to British rule, when Limuel
Jucklin spoke up: And | understand

now sentiment has grown in a certain
direction. Why, can remember the
time when IL a stillhouse had burned
down they would have begun to re-
build 1t before the ground cooled off.
That much was naturally to be in
eerred. But good many folks will
tell you that there want so much
drunkenness then as there is now Well
there want as many people. If there
mad been as many people there would
have been more drunkenness. The fact
Is that a good many men were about

ever seen them sober nobody could
tell when they were drunk"

A trial want hardly anything but a
