Hurnor qne Philosophy
BY DUNCAN N. SMITH
CASE FOR THE POLICE.

II vivisection is crime
I'd like to make complaint
About a lady that I know
Who seems to be saint
To see her you would never guess
She practiced such an art.
But she Is guilty. should know.
She tore holes in my heart.
What punishment does she deserve?
Well, I can hardly tell.
I wouldn't like to have to see
Her languish in cell.
A fine would hardly be the thing,
For I am we'll aware
She needs her money and has not
A single cent to spare
Sometimes think that in her case
No mercy should be shown;
That she should in restraint be placed
And to the law atone.
Then for a moment relent
And feel somewhat inclined
To let her of that she may have
A chance to change her mind.
Still. there should be some punishment
Sufficient, don't you know.
1t would not do to let crime
Like that unnoticed go.
II could only have my way
I'd sentence her for life
To let me buy her food and clothes
In short, to be my wife.

When to stop furnishing is the
main point to keep in mind when
fitting up the out-of-door sitting
room; for showers come suddenly,
when neglected articles get soak
ing; and by the time large as
sortment of damp furniture Is
dried out, many things look alto
gether superfluous.
AS shade and seclusion are
requisite in the creation of a
porch parlor. it is for them that
the first expenditure is generally
made. Tall rubber plants and
palms, together with vines such as
clematis, wistaria or honeysuckle,
make cheap and artistic screening:
and the moon flower, though its
foliage is coarse and its scent
heavy, is liked for its rapid growth
in sunny exposures.
Curtains of split bamboo, or
heavy awnings, which shut out
both sun and rain, are a practical
investment. Inner curtains Of deep
green denim or duck help to sub
due the light and give an effect Of
GOODNESS in midsummer heat. If
the porch is to be used as a nur.
sery, one end may be curtained
off so that the child may rest I'M
disturbed; or the curtains may be
arranged in ways best suited to
keep away the wind.
In floor coverings. porch special
ties are red and black English mo-
hair, ingram carpeting, wood fiber
and grass mating. This spring
women are making rag rugs in
small sizes which may be easily
shaken and quickly dried If wet.
The couch is considered one of
the necessities of a large porch.
There are some handsome styles
in reed and willow, but folding
cot costing a dollar or two may
be made very attractive If stained
