Mantel Coverings. New York Evening Post. There are many women, at least two in every village, some of whose moments are made burdensome on account of having in their sitting-room, behind the coal stove, a long shelf of wood. This is usually painted white, to match other wood-work in the room, and on this white? pain ted surface the soft, gray dust settles all the time. There is no vigilance short of the eternal which serves to keep it free. A young wife tried this plan, and it is so nearly satisfactory that she tells it for the benefit of others: Make a lambrepuin for the shelf; it may he of aida canvas or of macreme. It need not be a deep lambrequin; from ten inches to fifteen will answer. Then cover the shelf with crash, and attach the lambrequin to it. The dust may settle there, but if given one careful brushing in the morning you will not be disheartened by seeing it for tiie rest of the day. The lambrequin in the case mentioned was made of macreme, and was crocheted; three spaces were left through which scarlet ribbons were run; the edge was finished with a deep, large scallop. The ribbons were put in lengthwise. If one chose to do so, the ribbons could be put in the other way and the ends could be left a little longer than the lambrequin, and after being turned back ia points, little tassels of crewel could be put on. This is a pretty design for a corner bracket.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, FRIDAY', FEBRUARY 23, ISS3.

CURRENT PUBLICATIONS. New Books. On Viol and Flute. By Edmund William Gorae. Henry, Holt A Cos., New York; Bowen, | Stewart & Cos., Imliauapolig. Price, $1.75. A beautiful bound,beveled-back, gilt-edged volume of delightful poems, written with an elegance of diction and so soothing withal as to win sincere admirers everywhere. The book is made up from two collections originally published in London, “On Viol and Flute,” | in 1873, and “New Poems,” in 7879. A few of the others have appeared since the latter j elate in the Corn bill Magazine and in the j Century. A few selections will suffice to 1 show the author’s style. His sonnets, especially, are very pretty. Take for example “The Bath:” With rosy paling againgt lier bosom pressed To Stay the shudder that she feels of old, Lyridice glides down, till silver-cold The water girdlem half her glowing breast; A yellow butterfly on flowery quest Rifles the roses That her tresses hold; A breeze comes wondering through the fold on told Os draperies curtaining her shrine of rest. Soft beauty, like her kindred petals strewed Along the crystal coolness, tuerc she lies. What vision gratifies those gentle eyes! She dreams she stauds where yesterday she stood. Where, while the whole arena shrieks for blood, Hot In the sand a gladiator dies. Equally pretty is “Mistrust:” The peacock screamed and strutted in the court, The fountain flashed its crystal to the sun, The noisy life of noon was just begun, And happy men forgot that life was short; We two stood laughing, at the turret-pane, When some Apollo or 1 he ranks of Mars, Crimson with plumes and glittering like the stars, Galloped across below, and there drew rein; To see so confident a man-at-arms My heart sank suddenly from sun to shade, But she, who knows the leastof Lore’s alarms, L <id one soft hand upon my throbbing wrist, And in her eyes I read the choice she made, And auger slumbered like a tired child kissed. “Epithalamium” is good also: High in the organ-loft, with Idled nair, Love piled the pedals with his snowy foot. Pouring forth music like tne scent of fruit, And stirring all the incense-laden air; Me knelt before the altar’s gold rail, where The priest stood robot!, with chalice and palmshoot, With music-men, who bore eitole and lute, Behind us, and the attendant virgins fair; And so our red Aurora flashed to gold, Our dawn to smitten sun, and all the while The high-voiced children trebled clear and cold, Tiie censer-bora went swinging down the aisle, And far above, with Angers strong and sure, Love closed our lives’ triumphant overture. The longer poems are fine, and the book, a handsome volume, will find a ready sale. Sybillionk Leaves. By A. E M. K. Henry, Holt Sc Cos., New York; Bowen, Stewart & Cos., iudiauapolis. Price, $2. Handsomely bound in blue and gold, with gilt edges. A collection of extracts from the poets, arranged to answer questions. For instance, the first section is made up of poetical quotations that make apt replies to questions propounded to a lady, such as; “What are your predominant characteristics?” “Can I describe your lover?” “Can I predict his age?” The lady, in response, chooses a certain number up to the limit of quotations on the point at issue, and the corresponding quotation is read as the Sybilline answer. The subject matter of the volume is good in itself, and, arranged as it is, will afford entertainment to all who wish to consult the oracle. Two Noble Kinsmen. By John Fletcher and William Sbakeapnare. fliltad i.v wunam j. Ralfe. Harper A Brothers, New York; Morrill, Meigs A Cos., ludiannpolis. Pericles, Prince of Tyre. Shakespeare. Edited by William J. Knife, Harper & Brothers, New York; Merrill, Meigs Sc Cos., Indianapolis. Two additional numbers to the popular Shakespearean handbooks. The editorial comments on each are very valuable as elucidating the text, and the evidence of the great dramatist, having been concerned in writing the former, is peculiarly interesting. Use of the Voice in Reading and Speaking. By Rev. Francis T. Russell, M. A. D. Appleton & Cos., New York. Bowen, Stewart & Cos., Indianapolis. A manual for the guidance of clergymen in the use of their voices. Written by a clergyman after some thirty years’ experience and observation, the work will prove advantageous to any and all who will prjfit by it. And if it shall have the effect of correcting the sepulchral tone affected by many preachers, the public will rise up and call its author blessed. A History of Latin Literature. By George Augustus Simeox, M. A., Fellow of Queen’s College, Oxford. Two volumes. Harper Sc Brothers, New York. Merrill, Meigs a Cos., ludiauapolis. A comprehensive chronological table is provided, by which the political and literary history of the Roman empire is laid before the reader in double columns, so that contemporary events in their two fields are easily followed.

The North American Review for March opens with an article on “Money in Elections,” by Hanry George, in which the writer takes a dismal view of American politics. The other papers of the March number arc: “The Subjugation of the Mississippi,” “Gladstone.” “Railway Influence in the Land Office,” “The Pyramid of Cheops,” “Protective Taxes and Wages,” “Some Aspects of Life Insurance,” and “Educational Needs.” The March Century has for its frontispiece a portrait of the French statesman, Leon Gambetta. An article on his life, written last fall by an intimate friend, is embellished with a portrait of Joseph Gambetta. The principal illustrated article of the number is entitled “The Eud of Foreign Dominion in Louisiana.” “A Good Fight Finished,” is by Leonard Woolsey Bacon, descriptive of the life and services of his father, the venerable Dr. Leonard Bacon. “The Village of Oberammergau” naturally treats largely of the Passion Play, the production of which has made that quaint Bavarian village famous all over the world. An unfinished poem, by W. C. Bryant to his wife, is produced just as the dying writer left it, and there are other articles of interest. The Telephone for February appears under new editorial management, the staff, as reorganized, being as follows: W. DeM. Hooper, managing editor, and Mrs. Stephen W. Morgan and Mrs. Leon O. Bailey, associate editors. The number is an excellent one, this enterprising publication growing better as it grows older. Mrs. Bailey has an entertaining sketch entitled “A Summer’s Experience.” In addition to the continued articles of Mrs. Bolton on European travels, and the serial “Eva Alton,” there is a paper on “Myths and Superstitions,” a sketch of Thomas Chalmers Ilarbaugh, besides several original poems. The departments are all well sustained. All communications should be addressed to Frank H. Smith, publisher, 16 East Washington street, Indianapolis. If the Journal should offer any suggestions, it would be to strike out from the title the word “Telephone,” and leave it “The Midland Monthly,” a much more dignified name and altogether better. Lippincott’s for March opens with “An Ocean Swordsman,” a breezy sketch of the pursuit and capture of swordfish. Professor James D. Butler has an apparently exhaustive paper on the “Portraits of Columbus,” proving that the greater number of the pretended likenesses of the great discoverer are wholly fictitious, and that all those which have a good claim to be considered authentic, including one painted for Jefferson, and now in the collection of the Historical Society of Massachusetts, have been derived from a common original no longer extant. Mary Hartwell Catherwood has a sketch of sugarmaking in the Ohio backwoods. The Magazine of A.rt for March is rich in illustrations. Among the articles is one on "An American Palace,” showing numerous views of the interior of W. H. Vanderbilt’s residence. “For Auld Lang Syne” is a quaint picture of two grandames in earnest conversation. "The Interior of St. Paul’s Cathedral” gives a fine idea of London’s great church, and a paper on “The Special Artist” portrays the work of the artist sent to the front to illustrate war reports. The table of contents of the March Popular Science Monthly embraces: “The Growth of Effective Railway Consolidation,” “Queer Phases of Animal Life,” “Natural Religion,” “Vivisection and Practical Medicine,” ‘ Evolution of the Camp-meeting,” Remedial Value of the Climate of Florida,” “The Pedigree of Wheat.” "A Few Words About Eatables.” and a “Sketch of Sir C. Wyville Thomson.” Other Publications. Our Continent for the current week contains an illustrated article on “Recollections of Army Life,” relating in an agreeable style some of the characteristic experiences of life on the march, in camp and in action. The initial article, also illustrated, isof the public charities of Philadelphia. The journal is in receipt of eight numbers of the “Peacemaker,” published by the Universal Peace Union, 813 Arch street, Philadelphia. Its object is indicated the title. Price, $1 per year. Care of Horses. Veterinary Journal. Methods without limit, some without reason, and many vrith good practical information, have from time to time been given to the world concerning the care and management of horses. Many of these methods and instructions are of good sound reasoning, and whenever tried have proved practical and beneficial, but only available to a certain class of individuals, namely: those who have plenty of money and abuntant time lor experimental purposes. The average fanner has neither a surplus supply of money nor time to test and reap the good resulting from such methods, but must necessarily have methods at least partially adapted to his circumstances, or else he has no business with them at all. The farmer cannot, especially during the first three or four months of the farming season, allow bis team a respite of two or more hours after giving it water, before feeding, preparatory for the afternoon’s work. But then the instructions say, two hours or more of rest after feeding before work—this consumes too much valuable time, which the average farmer cannot afford to lose. But he can, the first thing in the morning, feed his team a bountiful supply of hay; a bucketful of water to the horse is best before giving hay. Allow about one hour for eating l4ty, tnen feed corn or oats, after which the team is well prepared for the half day’s work. A horse if fed grain first, or both hay and grain at the same time, will eat the grain and consequently little or no hay during the alloted time. Special care should be given to the amount of water required for horses under different circumstances,.for injurious results ofteneraccrue from an oversupply of water than is generally supposed, while the real cause of such results is frequently attributed to something else, the unsuspected custom continues, adding the while to its number of new victims. Hay, before grain of any kind, morning, noon and night, and a reasonable resting spell after the noon’s feeding, will give, if adhered to any length of time, satisfactory

results. Os course, a liberal and vigorous use of the curry-comb and brush, is promotive of much good, and should not by any means be neglected. In brightening up the furniture of a room, and giving a fresh look to old chairs which have grown rusty, a yard or so of cretonne or plush, if a rich material is desired, goes a great way. A pretty, bright cushion for a cane-seated rocker or easy chair, with a narrow long pillow, covered with the same material, tied onto the back with pretty satin ribbon bows, will so change the old affair that one will hardly know it.
