DESIGNS FOR THE NURSERY
Decorations Many Mothers Like to
Make, aHd They Are Not Hard
ri to Accomplish.

Decorations for the nursery arc
now the fad of the modern mother,
who often prefers to execute her
own designs in order to express her
individual taste upon her little ones.
What are called 'life motifs CT
studies from nature are at present
popular designs for decoration and
can easily be achieved.
Take a single large sheet OF water
color paper and on this paste Va
riety Of cut out white paper animals
which are to serve as a fricze. At
regular intervals of twelve inches
paste one of these animals, a dog,
cat, squirrel, kangaroo or any kind
Of bird. All these must be cut out
Of white paper, though a little va
riety is afforded by giving yellow
bills and red feet to the chickens.
The walls above and below this
frieze of white animals may be
painted in tan color and so serve az
restful background TO the decora-
tons.
Trees for the motifs are also cx-
cellcnt and should be conventional
in shape, modelled something on the
lines Of the Noah's ark type. Both
large and small are cut out of white
paper and colorcd respectively dark
green and yellow and crimson. Two
green trees, arranged side by side,
may be alternated by red and yellow,
and thus give charming effect.
The "bird' motif in the brilliant
colors Of every gay hued parrot,
robin redbrcast, bird of paradise,
etc., is also highly effective on a
background of gray cartridge paper
and invariably please a nursery OF
children.

Like 235.

Slurring of words over the te,e-
phone wire came near working clerks
overtime in the Office of A. B. Harri-
son, secretary Of state of Oklahoma.
The department was called by
long distance from Kansas City and
requested, as the clerk understood, to
"prepare two thirty-fve copies" of a
certain corporation charter. The Of
fee took on signs of business, with
orders going to town for several
reams of white paper.
Judge Fitzpatrick Of the corpora
ton desk stopped long enough to fig
ure that the fees to the state would
amount to $500 for copying alone.
'Do you suppose that is on the
square?" queried Judge Fitzpatrick.

the cost. .,..s.+ ,-..-. s..
Better confirm it," suggested the
secretary OF state, so telegram went
to Kansas City asking if the request
was for 1885 copies"
Orders for the white paper were
countermanded two hours later when

AND THE FRIENDSHIP ENDED
Sarcastic inscription on Photograph
Surely Settled All Question Of
Reconciliation.

IT the name of the victim of this
story were published it would ere
ate sensation from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, not to say from the great
lakes to the Rio Grande. In short,
If the name were known, the gentle
man in question would have several
duck fits and the remainder of the
population of the United States
would leap madly into laughing hys-
terics. However, the victim is a
man high in national politics and
widely known in the staring public
eye. He had befriended the hero
of this narrative and had bound him
to him with hoops of steel. An ex-
igency of politics required signal
service from the lesser light, and the
great man sent for the other and
said to him:
II am your friend. I have made
you what you are. For my sake, 60
forth into the countryside and do
thus and So"
The lesser light, having consulted
his own interests and the opposite
faction in the party, journeyed forth
all right enough, but what he pulled
off in the aforementioned country
side was in direct contradiction to
his instructions. When he returned
to the place from which he had
started he called at the offices of his
powerful friend, but was received
by subordinate, who said:
"My boss thinks that you have
treated him very badly in view of all
his past friendship for you, and he
will not receive you. Furthermore,
he wishes you to send back to him
the autographed photograph which
he gave you"
The man, thus rebuked, hurled
himself into a taxicab, dashed into
his humble dwelling, seized a large

AseAiouS idea among the Bur-
nese isShat people born on the same
day of the week must not marry,
ind that if they defy the fates their
union will be marked by much i'll
luck. To prevent these disastrous
marriages, every girl carries a record
Of her birthday in her name, each
day of the week having a letter be-
Ionging to it, and all children are
called by a name which begins with
that letter. 1t is rather'hard if the
Marys and Marks of Burma fall in
love with each other as in this coun-
Try. Unlike other Oriental lands,
the young people are allowed to mar
" as taste dictates, subject only to
the birthday restrictions.
