Old-Fashioned House,

Minor furnishings for the house OF
eighteenth century type are not easily
picked up, but of late some of the old
fashioned domestic pIenishings have
been reproduced at prices which even
the very thrifty may seriously consid
er. The revived fashions include bel.
lows in brass or carved wood, Frank
line stoves, which furnish the cheer
ing effect of the open fireplace minus
it's dangers-if left alone and dog
and irons in brass or iron. Delightful
ly quaint, too, are the freside stools
having four short posts joined by
cords of firm wool hemp and hand
woven to form a foundation for a cush
ion in gay-hued chintz, taffeta or vel
vet. Also the round, braided mats OF
alluring coloring. These are pretty
in any room furnished in eighteenth
century style.

Art Gallery in SchooIhouse.

The opening of the public art gal
lery in the Washington Irving high
school marks the first step in a move
ment which, it is hoped, may be spread
to every part of the city. 1t is the
result of a suggestion made by Pat
rick H. MCGOWAN, former president of
the board Of aldermen, who was con-
WINGED that by making use of school
buildings as centers art, with its up
lifting influence, could be brought
more easily within the reach of the
masses. That the new gallery, which,
by the way, is the first municipal art
gallery, will be a great success seems
assured. If others were to be estab-
lished there is no doubt owners of pri-
vate galleries would be glad to offer
works of art enough to keep them all
constantly supplied with exhibitions.
The private collections in this city
contain treasures which otherwise
might never be placed on public view.
This innovation is in line with the
peoples demand that school buildings
be used more widely than only during
school hours. 1t is added evidence
of the approach of the time when our
school buildings will be civic, art and
community as well as educational cen,

CelIuloid Substitute.

Gently been experimenting with a new
process Of preparing leather by means
of which it becomes almost transpar.

claimed also that it is almost incom.

process, which is a trade secret, con.
sists to some extent in saturating the
leather with hot oil, then kneading
and rolling it.
1t absorbs large amount of oil, be
comes tenacious and of the consist
ency of tortoisesheIl. Its value in the
arts is likely to be very great, and es-
pecially in electrical work it is sup

certain purposes than rubber. 1t may

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

Roxbury Ohio.-"When my little boy
was two weeks old he began breaking
out on his cheeks. The eczema began
just with pimples and they seemed tc
itch so badly he would scratch his
face and cause matter to run.
Wherever that matter would touch it
would cause another pimple until it
spread all over his body. 1t caused
Disagreement while it lasted. He had
fifteen places on one arm and his
head had several. The deepest places
on his cheeks were as large as a sill
yer dollar on each side. He was so
restless at night we had to put nit
tens on him to keep him from scratch
ing them with his finger nails. If he
got little too warm at night 1t
seemed to hurt badly.
1--WE tried a treatment and he didn't
get any better. He had the eczema
about three weeks when we began
using Cuticura Soap and Ointment. l
bathed him at night with the Cuticura
Soap and spread the Cuticura ONT

Extraordinary Dishes.

Mrs. Dan Crawford, whose book
Thinking Black" has created consid-
cradle controversy, mentioned some
extraordinary Central African dishes"
in the course of a recent lecture.
These included stewed elephants
trunk, roast rhinoceros foot, boiled
hippo tongue (stewed 48 hours to
make it tender), roast wild donkey,
stewed monkey, roast water rat, head,
tail, and all, and the luscious morsel,
which chief provided as a state
delicacy, of a mess of thousands of
white ants, frizzled in their own fat,
like a sort of Central African white
bait. Also there was a special dish,
much favored, of starchy boiled grass,
green and glutinous"
Mrs. Crawford also told of the Cen
trail African ''knuts.' The young
bridegroom wore a necklace of teeth
and hairs of the elephants tail, and a
fur boa, which any West End lady
would envy, of squirrel skins, gray
and white, the toilet being completed

Sparrow Pie for Poor.

The way to get rid of the sparrow is
to eat him, observed Deputy Game
Warden Louis Kuertz of Hazelton, &C
cording to Cincinnati CO., dispatch
to the Philadelphia Record. He an
nounced that in a few weeks he ex-
poets to come to Cincinnati with a
large trap, which he will place some
where and invite all the sparrows in
the vicinity to come in.
Sparrow potpie," says Kuertz, "is
a rare dish. 1 have eaten it myself
It's better than chicken pie. I pro-
pose to catch the sparrows and dis
tribute them free to all who wish to
eat them. Twenty-four sparrows baked
in pie-sOunds like the old rhyme
make pie enough for an average-size
family"
If the crusade against the sparrows
is successful the fight will be extend
ed to every section of the city and
each days catch of birds will be
passed out in the neighborhood to help
solve the high cost of living problem,
Kuertz says.

SCHOOL TEACHERS.

fined case of chronic coffee poisoning.
The troubles were constipation,
fiutterings of the heart, a humping
in the top of my head, and various
parts Of my body, twitching of my
limbs, shaking of my head and, at
times after eXertion, a general gone"
feeling, With a toper's desire for very
strong coffee. 1 was a nervous wreck
for years.
"A short time ago friends came to
visit US and they brought a package
of Postum with them, and urged me
to try it. I was pTejudiced because
some years back had drunk a cup of
weak, tasteless stuff called Postum
which l did not like at all.
This time. however, my friends
made the Postum according to direc-
tons on the package, and it won me.
Soon I found myself improving in a
most decided fashion.
The Odor Of boiling coffee no long
er tempts me. 1 am so greatly bene-
flied by Postum that if I continue to
improve as 1 am now, I'll begin to
think I have found the Fountain of

Postum now comes in two forms:
Regular Postum-must be well

Instant Postum-is a soluble pow
