HOMEMADE WRITING DESK.

The writing desk illustrated below,
with its wide dropleaf to write upon,
plenty of pigeon-holes in which to
stick letters, school papers, catalogues
of boats, toys, athletic goods, ETC., and
other things that you wish to keep
near to hand, and a drawer" for
writing materials, is just what you
need for your room. The drawer is
really misnamed, because the one in
this desk does not pull out, but is
reached by raising a hinged leaf &c,
Fig. 81. However, it serves the pur
pose OF drawer and, besides being
easier to construct, 1t is handler to
get at. Where there is a regular
drawer it is necessary to close the
desk, or at least partly close the drop
leaf, to gain access to it.
A small packing case from the store
room, grocery or dry goods store,
and a few boards from the wood pile
or from another box, will be needed
for the desk.
After renailing all boards that show
signs of loosening, cut two strips Of
wood three inches wide and of a
length equal to the inside depth of the
packing case Fasten these in the ends
of the box as shown at A and B, Fig. /.
Then cut a strip equal to the length
of the box, and the width of strips A
and plus the thickness of the side
of the box, and nail 1t to the top of
the box on a level with strips A and B
&C, Fig. p.
The drawer space Is covered with
boards D and E Gig. 81, each of
which should have width equal to
one-half the inside depth Of the box.
Board e should be hinged to the edge
Of board D, and the latter should be
nailed in place to the top edge of
strips A and B. Fasten brass ring
to board 3, near the front edge, by
means of small staple, to catch hold
Of In lifting the leaf.
Partition of the box into pigeon
holes, using as thin wood as you can
get for the purpose. Fig. will give
you a suggestion as to how it may be
done, but you can space them in any
other way that you wish. The top
row can extend out to the front of
the desk, but the lower pigeon-holes
must be kept far enough back of the
hinged leaf e so it will not interfere
with it opening.
The front drop-leaf IF, Fig. ~ Is
made from the cover boards, batteneo

narrow legs would. Fasten two hori7
zontal braces between the legs, one
in front and the other in the back, as
shown in Fig. 5. The strips should
be PA inches wide.
Cut enough boards of the proper di-
mansions to form a desk-top with a
projection of one inch over the box
all around. These boards will con-
ceal the tops of the leg strips. When
they have been nailed in place, the
last constructive detail necessary to
transform the packing case into an at
tractive desk will have been COM
pleted.
If the packing case used for the
desk is stamped with manufacture
er's trademark, and these cannot be
removed, you must give the wood sew
eral coats of oil paint to conceal these
blemishes; but if the wood is free
from markings and other defects, fin
ish it with a prepared wood stain,
then give it a coat of white shellac,
and finally wax it.

WATERS ARE NOW BoNlFACES
Some of the Things the New York
Servants Forgot When They
Called a Strike.

Trouble with the walters strike is
that they proved too much, writes the
New York correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Times-Star. 1t may be con-
ceded, as alleged by their various
members, that the average waiter IS
paid but SO cents a day by the hotel
and that half of that sum goes in tips
each day to the kitchen help and the
head waiter and the side walters or he
might as we'll be dead as in dining
room. 1t may also be conceded that
ten years ago the Waldorf charged
Iut 70 cents for sirloin steak and
that it now charges dollar and a
half. And that in that period the
walters pay has not been increased.
"Only." said the man who began as
waiter and now has a ffourlshlns
restaurant within couple of blocks
of the Thirty-second street elevated
station. ''the walters forget that their
tips have increased in that period.
Oscar of the Waldorf began as a wait

Martins and the three Bustanobys.
You should not be far wrong II you
said that every successful restaurant
keeper in town began as wa1ter-or
a. bartender, as did Regain of the
Knickerbocker, and this O'Connor up
on One Hundred and Twenty-ninth
street, who saved enough to start a
saloon-and then saved enough to buy
the original castle of the O'Connors
in Ireland. Ten years ago a dime
was a good tip for service to single
person. A quarter was muniticent. A
dollar would recompense waiter for
looking after a wine party of six. II
you gave him 50 after an all-night ses-
sion he would jump through, roll over
and lie dead Nowadays a ten-cent tip
for a 75-cent lunch never wins thanks

dibIe thank you" and for quarter
YOU can have your chair pulled back
and your coat collar snugged. The
people are educated up to 1t. This
very week waiter 307 at the Hotel AS
tor starts on a trip around the Worlo.
He's saved enough in three years from
his tips to do it in style. Here is a
sporting proposition: I will pay any
courteous, clean and attentive waiter
$50 a week if he will give me his tips.
If he is a better waiter than the av-
erage can afford to give him $40 a
week on the same terms. There are
professors at Columbia who are not
paid more; there are bank tellers right
here in New York who are not paid
more; there are dern few hotel clerks
right here in New York who are paid
as much. Only would have to figure
out some scheme by which I would be
certain Of getting the tips. The tip
taking habit spoils most men. They're
apt to get glue fingered

There are wild camels now in the
American desert, said to have found
their origin in the camels that fed
from white men in that region half
century ago Camels, according to a
veteran prospector, would be the most
practical animals for desert travel, but
dogs wouii be the easiest. His own
dog Rufus is half st. Bernard and
half red Siberian hound, which COM

THE RIGHT SOAP FOR BABY'S
SKIN

In the care Of baby's skin and hair,
Cuticura Soap is the mothers IA
vorite. Not only is 1t unrivaled In
purity and refreshing fragrance, but
its gentle emollient properties are
usually sufficient to allay minor irri-
tations, remove redness, roughness
and chafng. soothe sensitive condi-
tons, and promote skin and hair
health generally. Assisted by Cuu-
cura Ointment, it is most valuable in
the treatment Of eczemas, rashes and
other itching, burning infantile erup-
tions. Cuticura Soap wears to a wafer,
often outlasting several cakes Of ordi-
nary soap and making its use most
economical.

Marvellous Surgical Feat.

An ex.soldier. named Blomquist, has

holm, Sweden, after one OF the most
remarkable operations on record A
year ago Blomquist was accidentally
shot in the head during the maneuv.
ers. and 1t was found that one half OF
the brain had been injured, and that
the only chance of life for the patient
lay in its removal After much de
liberation by the doctors the perilous
operation was performed. with the
marvellous result that within few
weeks Blomquist recovered He was
in full possession OF all his faculties,
but on being tested in the matter OF
reading and writing. he was found to
have entirely forgotten the meaning
OF the alphabet and numerals. One OF
the doctors undertook to re-teach him
all the forgotten lore. and after not
very considerable time and much in.
dustry. Blomquist is again able to
read and write. He has now left the
nursing home. where he has been
under the care OF the doctors. and re.
turned to work on his farm. He is
robust I'm health and shows no trace
physically or mentally or the ex.
traordinary experience he has had
