THE SCRATCH MY BACK.

Grape Table Covers.
A chocolate brown in Japanese Grape
from the upholsterer's is used for
hemmed table covers, stenciled in most
effective colors. These covers make
stunning gifts.
On this soft brown a light putty
color is used with a brick red and
the pattern is one Of the simplest of
the running stencil design.
These table covers are made Of a
square measured by the width of the
Grape. thirty inches. or else they rep
resent two widths or even three, over
cast together by hand with silk to
match the Grape and with stitches so
fine as to be unnoticed. The hens
also are not conspicuous. an eighth of
an inch being one of the favorite
ideas in hem measurement --
Blue Grape has been most effectively
used. gray blue with a. decoration OF
dull purple and sage green suggesting
the colors of the iris.
White Of creamy tone is stenciled
with pale yellow and brilliant orange
in conventional design
Four squares of yellow Grape are
Joined with narrow gold lace insertion
to form a large table cover, each cor
ner Of the finished piece being decorat-
ed in long Japanese stitches with gold
thread in a wandering leaf design.
. The soft shades and the Grape quality
suggest almost endless possibilities for
decorations.

Tho Naughty Butchers.

The complaint against the high cost

time Adam paid SO dearly for bite

and it says that the present increased
price of meats has caused the exam
nation of the records in order to trace
the origin of the trouble there. In 1890
a decree was issued which suggests
that butchers were carrying things
with high hand. It says: Butchers
are expressly enjoined not to i'll treat
or use abusive language to the ladies'
of their city. or the women of low de-
gree, or the servant maids who propose

Rare Peruvian Ware,

Vessels Of odoriferous clay were i'm
ported early in the sixteenth century
from Peru, Chile and Mexico by the
Portuguese merchants, to which were
given the name Of buccaros. So highly
was this ware esteemed that only the
wealthiest collectors could afford to
possess ~ entire specimens. Broken
pieces were set in gold or silver or
ground to powder to be used to scent
cakes and confections and to perfume
gloves and handkerchiefs. 1t was also
supposed to possess medicinal prop
critics and was prescribed by contemr
porary physicians for certain all
ments. The great demand for the
buccaros resulted in the alleged dis
covery OF scented elays in Portugal
and the potters of the time used them
to fashion all sorts of drinking YES
sells on which they impressed seal
or stamp, hence the adoption of the
name terra sigil|ata.

A Medieval Megaphone.

a curiosity Of great antiquity Is still
to be seen within ST. Andrews church
at Willoughton. near Gainsborough,
says an English magazine This is a
quaint speaking trumpet with an OBJ
scure early history, dating back to the
times Of the Knights Templars. In
shape it resembles a French horn and
is more than FIVE feet~long, having a
bell at the end Of the graduated tube.
It was formerly six feet in length, but
Is now telescoped at the joints, where
the metal has apparently decayed.
Tradition declares it was formerly
sounded from the tower to summon
aid in case Of need, as when blown
at a height the weird. deep notes the
trumpet produced could be heard a
great distance away in bygone days.
It is believed that this curious instru-
ment has often been used to call to-
gether the villagers, thus dispensing
with the usual bell, and to give add
tional power and strength to the choir,
being then probably used by the chief
singer, as the trumpet intensifies vocal
sound to q marked degree.

PHOSPHORUS EXPLODES
AND DRUG SHOP BLAZES

NEW YORK Special An explo-
sion in the drug shop of Felix Res
nick, at 964 Second Avenue, at 7
o'clock Sunday night scattered sui
phur and PHOSPHORUS in all direc-
tons started fires in a dozen spots
and filled the place with an atmos-
phere that caused Resnick, his faith
er-in-law and five firemen to drop
while lighting the flames.
Resnick was in a telephone booth
when the explosion occurred. AS he
stepped forth scores of bottles tum-
bled from their shelves and flames
leaped up about him. A woman Gus
toner fled TO the street and Resnick's
wife, who came from her apartment
upstairs, was overcome by the fumes
that rushed toward her as she opened
side door. She was revived in the
street.
Morris Silverman, fifty years old.
Resnick's father-in-law, poured water
on the flames. This served to spread
them. Then Resnick tried to stamp
out the fire. Bits of the PHOSPHORUS
spattered on Silverman and Resnick
and when the firemen arrived they
dragged both men to the street to re-
vive them. Silverman's hands, face
and chest were badly burned. Parts
Of Resnicks coat and shirt were burn
ed away. Both were attended by DR..
NJ. Behrman, of 500 East Fifty-flrst
Street.
The firemen fought the fire for
nearly an hour The sulphurous
fumes. filing the place, made it hard
for the men to get at the flames to
eXtinguish them. Fireman Fred
Christ, of Truck No. 2, at Fiftieth
Street and Lexington Avenue. was the
first to drop. William Lennon, of
the same company, was overcome in
attempting to assist Christ to the
street. Both were revived by a de-
partment physician when taken TO
their quarters nearby.
Later Firemen Lynx, Berger and
Mccarthy, Of Engine No. 8, Fifty-first
Street, near Second Avenue, dropped
in their tracks. Lynx and Berger re-
covered quickly, but Mccarthy was
driven in Acting Assistant Chief Sher-
locks gig to Flower Hospital. An
hour elapsed before he was able to
return to duty.
Resnick told the reserves of the
East Fifty-first Street Police Station,
who had difficulty in keeping the
crowds back. that he believed a bot
tie contains Ng PHOSPHORUS had ex-
ploded. The water in which the phos-
phorous was kept evaporated, expos
ing IL to the air. The damage to the
store is about $500.
