Furniture and Its Makers
Learn One Thing Every Day"
NO. 3. THOMAS SHERATON

At forty years Of age Thomas
Sheraton was proverty-pinched
journeyman cabinet maker and Bap-
fist preacher in Stockton-on-Tees.
Then in 1890 he went to London,
where he found even a greater pro-
erty, but where he also made name
for himself as designer of furniture
that will last as long as the world
loves beautiful things. The fifteen
remaining years of his life were ira
gically sad.
Sheraton's nowledge was gained
through years Of hardship and pri-
walton He lived to see his chosen art
reach it's zenith and then to see it
fall away. He had scarce perfected
his creations when they were over
whelmed by wave of bad taste that
swept much beauty from English
furniture.
When Sheraton reached London
he hadn't enough money to set up
shop, much less to employ skilled
workmen. So, instead of making fur
niture, he wrote about it, varying it
occasionally by writing sermons or
tracts. He made little money, but
many enemies, for he had a bitter
tongue. l1,-",. ." - >- .H-E9. ST.. rE.a

Horrible DueIinu.

A particularly terrible kind Of duel
was fought on one occasion In Mexico
The opponents were an Indian settler
and a rich cattle owner. Tie weapons
chosen were butchers knives, and it
was settled that each combatant was
to. hold out, his hand in turn to have
one of his, fingers cut of. The first
to show the least sign of suffering pain
was to have a bullet put through his
heart by the other. The Indian had
the first cut and amputated the cattle
owners first finger at a single blow.
The Indians first injury was the loss
Of thumb, and he likewise remained
as impassive as marble. This horri-
BILE! drama. went on until each; COM
Blatant had lost four. digits. Then the
cattleman's second became SO fright
ened at the CHASTITY sight that he shot
the Indian dead and ended the fight.

German Courtship.

The formin which proposal of mar
riage is made has undergone great
change In Germany during; the past
few years, At. one. time any, young
man who, proposed marriage attired
himself in his dress suit and carried a
bouquet as an Offering to his chosen
one. We must not seek to pry into the
intimacy of such. proposals, but If. the
disconsolate lover left the house carry
ing his, bouquet, with him it was q sure
sign that he was rejected. Nowadays
proposals are less formal, but engage
ments are no less binding. In fact, a
betrothal is regarded as almost as SOL
emn and binding as the wedding itself.
On every possible occasion German
lovers appear arm in arm, and the Gus
tom is not confined to one class alone.
Peasants walk thus, and princes and
princesses follow the popular CUSTOM
