Bears.-Last Saturday about 2
o'clock in the afternoon an old Bear
and five cubs made their appearance
on the farm Of T. J. Cooper, in Cen
tralia. Mr.. Cooper was in the field at
the time, drawing hay, and not hav-
ing gun, gave chase with a pitch
fork in hand and a pointer dog by his
side. On nearing the intruders the
dog made for one of the cubs, and the
old bear made for the dog, and intro
duced herself to him by extending one
paw, which came in contact with his
head. At this point the dog gave up
the chase, but in the meantime Mr..
Cooper called to the women folks 20
bring the gun, and in the excitement
the gun came but no ammunition,
consequently Bruins made good their
escape.

The car was on the cutoff track bs

Said the porcelain dog to the china cat

New York, June 3O-The answer
to what next, my dears, is what not.
Now what do you think of that? No
thing more nor less that the old fash
Toned whatnot is what we may expect
If the craze for Victorian modes ex-
tends from our clothes to our homes
at the rate it is spreading.
At the moment of going to press we
have with us in the midst of our
smartest homes today all the where
Withal to deck that atrocity of old
not go to the limit and drag it down
from the garnet, dust off it's shelves
and set it up in the chosen corner.
Truly the porcelain dog and the china
cat, the glass flowers and the framed
sampler can never feel at home out,
side Whatnot environment.
Indeed it is only fitting that we
should have a proper setting for our
hoopskirts and scollops, our fichues
and bell sleeves, our shoulder capes
and poke bonnets; hence undoubtedly
the revival of the smirking porcelain
poodle door-stops, the green and yell
low china parrots swaying in gilded
hoops, the worsted embroidered fire
screens and footrests that now infest
the truly modern and artistic hearth
and home.
The crocheted and braided rag rugs
are on all our smartest floors, lying
in wait for the voluminous silken
skirts of the good old days to trail
over them. But alas! no silken skirts
can touch them now in these the days
Of highwater ballet effects.
Daguerreotypes of Grandpa as a
soldier and Grandma as bride adorn
the mantlepiece, sharing the honors
with an urn-shaped potpourri jar of
purple glass.
Our smartest billetdoux are penned
with gay-hued quilts that rest as in
the days of yore in little painted glass
jars half filled with cleaning shot
On rush bottomed chairs we rest
90, whose high straight backs are
festive with painted garlands on their
painted cross pieces.
The castor and the urn-shaped knife
and fork cases reign on our antique
Sheriton Bullets. MaioIica fruit bas-
kets, soup tureens and colored glass
cake stands have broken in on our
smartest tables and are being broken
in our smartest kitchens.
Above stairs we spurn electric
lights and grope our divers ways to
bed with bayberry candles in pewter
candle sticks equipped with quaint
and ancient shutters.
Crawling under the rose of Sharon
patchwork quilt we fall to sleep to
dream that we may yet be overtaken
by visitation of gilded pine cones,
gilded rolling pins, gilded ginger beer
jugs, stuffed melon pincushions, castle
in-the-air and wax wreaths under
glass for all the world like mush-
rooms "sous cloche" only not so gas
tronmically edifying.
No doubt well awake screaming and
jump from bed only to stumble over
porcelain poodle and the china
cat.
