arose, soon increasing to shouts and
uproar, that foreign devils had pos

with the spirits of the dead. Actual

prevented only by the dubbed guns Of

Fashions and the Household
FURNISHING VERANDA.
Hammock, Willow Armchairs and Paint
Among the Possibilities.

Among the Possibilities.
Every well appointed country house
has veranda, terrace or gallery that
Is practically an outdoor sitting room.
Unfortunately, however, the best ap-
pointments for these are still expensive
at the select shops, being classed as
novelties or specialties. Willow arm
chairs and Gloucester hammocks have
been greatly reduced in price, but ta-
bles, garden seats, settles, etc, Of good
design are still high.
On the other hand, it is possible, with
little skill and a great deal of paint
to furnish veranda very attractively
with little money.
A charming breakfast porch can be
equipped entirely with kitchen furni-
ture painted and decorated like the
expensive peasant and cottage sets
which are in vogue at present. One
of the heavy, plain ironing tables that
can be converted into settle is the
best type of table to buy, and the
chairs should be Of the plainest. Get
and paint it any color you wish,
though green, on the whole, is most
satisfactory. Make or buy stencil Of
some simple design; conventionalized
flowers, like the decorations on the
Swedish or Hungarian pottery, are
good. Stencil a border Of these around
your table and on the backs of your
chairs. Paint it in bright peasant col
ors, and when these are dried go over
the decorations with q waterproof var
nish.
This is not work that demands any
great Skill but it calls for time, pa
tience and extreme neatness. The ef-
feet is we'll worth the trouble, for with
the outlay Of few dollars you will
have a set Of furniture that you could
not buy for five times that amount.
Dairy benches and stools decorated IN
the same way make very attractive
garden furniture.

Some Facts About Birds.

Some Facts About Birds.
Ostriches have small wings because
their legs are long. and the wings are
not needed for running. They are only
used to steady the body while running.
Birds have sharp bealls because they
have no teeth, and the beak seizes,
holds and divides their food.
Birds that swim under water have
web feet because the spreading out OF
the toes Of the bird brings the thin
membrane between the toes into the
shape of fin. and by striking this fin
against the water the bird moves it.
