crayat for wear with wash silk shirt
waists made in manniSh styles is Of
black satin, There is a fiat bow OF the
satin and one long end Of the satin
made double and widening out toward
the bottom.
This end is about eight inches long
and is one and n half inches wide at
the top and two and quarter
inches wide at the bottom. Six round
silver or gold buttons are placed at
half inch intervals at the lower end.
On some OF these ties n piece OF
rather heavy cream fillet lace is folded
fiat around the satin end about an
inch and half from the bottom. and
the buttons are sewed in row on the
lace. a..
Another black satin tie has Il square
bow laid in flat plaits and one long
end of the double satin with little
ecru valeu,iennes frilled on each side
for about four inches OF its length up
from the lower end. The effect is very
quaint.

A STRANGE BIRDS NEST.
The Little Brown Wren Builds a Fence
of Ihorns.

The little brown wren OF Central
America builds a nest that should be-
long to bird five or six times as large
rs II is. and to prevent other birds
from disturbing its home while it is
away 1t builds as a protection a fence
OF thorns leading to 1t.
When Mime. Wren looks for n home
site she selects tree where two
branches lie parallel about two feet
apart Across these two branches she
and her mate lay little platform
about five feet in length. Near the
trunk of the tree Is built Il dome shap-
ell nest about foot in height The
sides OF this nest are all interviewer
with thorns. Next covered passage
way Is built from the nest to the end
OF the platform In rs crooked Il man
ner as possible. Thorns stick out in
all directions just rs In the nest itself,
and every few inches on the inside. Of
the tunnel little fences OF thorns are
placed In such q way that any crca-
ture not familiar with the passage
way will get badly pricked. Finally
across the outer end of the tunnel Is a
movable gateway of thorns.

POLISHING FURNITURE.
Surfaces Have Often Been Ruined by
Not Rubbing Properly.

The prudent housekeeper will be AZ
wary of doctoring her furniture with
polish that is recommended to cover
all defects as she would be of a patent
medicine which is guaranteed to cure
every disease
The highly polished surfaces Of fur
niture have often been ruined by too
free use of so called polish which,
not having been rubbed dry. has hard
ened, has collected all the, dust before
drying and has caused tdull film To
appear over the polished surfaces. A
simple and effective polish for clean
Ing furniture and removing scratches
Is made OF one-third linseed oil and
two-thirds benzine.
1t should be applied with paint
brush which has very soft bristles and
rubbed dry with an old soft piece of
muslin or soft flannel For polishing
dampen cloth with the mixture. fold
it into pad, sprinkle a few drops of
alcohol over the surface of the pad
and rub the furniture firmly and
quickly. Rub only small part at a
time and be sure TO rub until the sur
face Is quite dry.

10 In a Fix?
\ poet has written against man
'who needlessly sets foot upon a
worm" And President Lincoln once
turned back In his walk to help bug.
The friend who was walking with him
expressed surprise that the president,
burdened with the cares of warning
nation. should find time to assist bug.
Well said Lincoln, IF | had left
the bug struggling on his back
wouldn't have felt right. l wanted to
put him on his feet and give him an
equal chance with all the other bugs Of
his class
1t may be small thing to you that n
bug finds himself In position In which
his legs are not long enough to reach
the ground. but put yourself In his
place. How would you feel?
Why not help any living thing that
finds itself In fix. provided 1t does not
cost anything ? Minneapolis Journal
