3HE DESCRIBES THE DOWNY COUCH OF MILADY.

to Proper Sleeping—"Restful"

Should be the Main Characteristic of a Woman's Bed-room—Oddities and Fads of Dainty Bed Decoration. ,. iCopyrlght, 1894.]

These are the days when the grip, or the colds that resemble it, are abroad, and womankind is wishing that, as she has to cry, she might bottle her tears as they dropped, slowly and gracefully, into bottles of cut glass having gold stoppers, set about with precious stones. That is what the ladies of Pompeii used to do, and no well-bred woman of that day, or that city, thoughtof such a thing as weeping into a handkerchief. Tnere can be no doubt that the woman who wished to be thought graceful oould practice a lovely pose, with her tear botjtle, before her mirror, and then when *6h6 sealed it Up, shd Could send this bottled grief to her best young man in a registered letter, with a little note, say ing: "You have all my heart, and these are the tears I have webt for you since you left." The tear bottle would be an absolute proof, and the maiden, fair but thoughtful, could write on the outside of the envelope, in very large letters: "Glass please don't stamp to hard." Those were undoubtedly the days of romance. It was said that some very fetching young women who lived then, and who appreciated the impression made by a bottle of tears, and still did not like to have a red nose, used to get their slaves to do their weeping for them, and gave them physical culture by administering, to the said slaves, good, sound whippings, so that they might have something to cry about.

HOW wa WEEP.

Nowadays we weep in handkerchiefs. It is just poasible that they may have magic in the web of them, but the way they disappear when they visit a French laundry is something past description. And the way a French laundress can assure you that you only had five handkerchiefs in the wash, when you remember counting ten, is most beautiful. She is cool and collected when among the linen squares returned to you is one trimmed with coarse lace and having somebody else's initial upon it. This, she will pleasantly inform you, is yours, and at last you are forced to keep it because you cannot get any other.

The handkerchiefs nowadays—that isp the proper handkerchief—id large in size, fine of texture, has a tiny frill of real lace about it, and your initials, very small ones, embroidered quite simply far down in the corner. I never could understand people having black handkerchiefs. They were not pretty, they were not useful, and they would look like dust cloths. However, they are out of fashion long ago, and nobody grieves for them.

ANY WOMAN OF SENSBjs.

knows that her handkerchiefs should never make the acquaintance of starch, that abominable stuff that has ruined so many pretty ones, and that it should be only folded twice. The laundress thinks differently Ittd so she makes it as stiff as possible, folds it in the size of a postage stamp, and is surprised that you don't like her method. I feel positively cer tain that we will go back to the tear bottle. There are so many good specimens of glass and ohina to be used for this purpose, that it seems almost a shame not to have the beautiful materials developed in the graceful vaseshaped affairs. •MM

How many people that you know look pretty when they are asleep? Of course, a baby always looks like an angel, but people don't keep babies all their lives. Those women who have studied the subjects say the grace and beauty of the figure is increased by the position taken ^Wheu tired nature's sweet restorer rules one. It is said that

THE BEST POSITION

in which to sleep is slightly to one side, with the body stretched at its full length. The Russian soldiers, credited with being the straightest men in the world, olal# that their fine figures come from sleeping in the shape of the letter S, but insist that this way of sleeping must be begun early in life and persisted in. After all, what one sleeps on really ooncems the sleeper very much more than anything else. You would not like to think of the Sleeping Beauty resting upon husks and covered with ooarse linen. While you can perfectly understand the dainty oourt lady, whose skin was so supersensitive, that she felt the rose leaf under forty silken

The idea of luxury in the bedroom is the result of generations of ease and wealth. The nourean riche never appro dates it. She is apt to put her bedroom In the hands of a professional furnisher, and the result is a cross between the royal apartments at some of the Continental hotels and a funeral eouch. Sis idea is to have a huge four-poster in the oenter of the room, reached by four

A ROOM OP ERRORS.

The chairs are in harmony with this awful bed. and not one of them for an instant suggests anoh

delightful thinjg

loafing. The foul fiend, in the shape of the decorator, then puts gloomy curtains about the bed, thiee feathers on the top of each post, and finishes up by giving you a dressing table so heavy looking that it suggests your preparing on it the poisons of the Borgias, rather

than all the silver belongings, bottles of sweet scents, and bowls of perfume that 'belong to the lady of the nineteenth century. A woman's bedroom ought, first of all, to look restful. It should have lounges and ohalrs that seem to hold open wide their arms, and invite you in their dumb way to repose. One's bed does not want to be in the middle of the room, and it does not want to look so funereal, that one feels as if o«e would like to ask one's husband to turn Mormou, and allow two or three of the wives to sleep with one so that one would not dream of spooks and w.ake up with a oold chill.

The prettiest bedroom that I know

CHIPPENDALE BED IN IT

which stands against the wail, while from the canopy top fall curtains of bolting cloth embroidered in the most exquisite manner those on the top having poppies upon them, suggesting that sleep may oorne to the eyes, while those at the foot are bright with morning glories, inviting the beautiful sleeper to wake and see the sun. Inside, the oanopy is lined with rose-colored silk, and BO is the part at the back against which is hung a lovely picture on ivory of the Mottier of God. This bed is always dressed, as it should be, in white. The finest of lioeo forms the sheets, and these are hem-stitohed by hand, and have a monogram upon each. The outer spread is of linen made laoe-like by the drawn work upon it, and trimmed with Irish lace. When Jack Frost comes and traces etchings on the window pane, there is a dainty satin douvet, and if more spreads are required, there is one of sable and one of white fox.

YES, THERE ARE OTHERS.

At the foot of the bed is a little lounge that matches, it being upholstered in white brocade with pink roses upon it, while pillows of pink and gold and white and pale green are piled up and seem to ask one to rest against them for a ten minutes' nap. There are no end of comfortable chairs, and the dressihg-table, beside all its silver belongings, shows that this room is lived in, for there is a hastily written note, a couple of photographs, and a little prayer-book with a ribbon marker showing where it was last used. Then, before my lady goes to bed, the small "in case" table is pushed within reach of her hand, and the silver tray upon it is a taper with a box of matches beside it, a Dresden plate with some fruit and biscuits on it, a jug of water, one cf claret and two tumblers. If my lady should waken and be fright eued at the dark, she can quickly light the candle at her side, while if she is hungry or thirsty, there is almost under her hand whatever she may wish.

Another beautiful bed of white and gold is slept in by a young girl. The frame is of white enamel, picked out with gold here and there, while at the top are two golden angels, who look as if they were blessing the sleeper, while from their hands fall the full, soft, muslin curtains that drape the bed. Nowadays one's linen must be made by hand. Not long ago I saw some sheets that came direct from Felix. They were fine enough to certainly go through a bangle. The upper hem was very deep and all the edges were hemstitched. Upon it was wrought in enormous letters a monogram, having above it a viscount's crown, while the upper edge was finished with a frill of

KEAL VALENCIENES LAOR,

half a yard wide. The reality of the lace and the fact that there is not a great deal of it seen now a days made these sheets oost f250 a pair! Some women with more money than brains bought in Paris some superb beds that had set in the top of the canopy huge mirrors. However, after they had been laughed at by people who knew better and they discovered where these beds were originally used, the Venetian glass was quickly removed and silk drapings put in its plaoe.

I saw in a Western paper, and of course Western papers always tell the truth, that the professional spanker was again in favor, and her customers increasing. I cannot but believe that in time the work of the professional spanker will not be oonfined to children. Fancy the advantage a husband would have over an unruly wife. On his way home to dinner be would leave his order, and he then oould say the next morning, quite pleasantly, "My dear, the dinners have been very bad lately, you have shown evidence of idleness and lack of thought, consequently the spanker will arrive this morning at 11 o'clock ^3r£-

AND WHIP YOU INTO

abetter frame of mind." You see the professional spanker would not overdo the business. She would grade her blows according to the size and strength of the patient, being oareful, while administering the punishment, to plaoe the patient so that the blood would be drawn from the head, and walking would be preferred to sitting down for an hour or two after the seance. There is nothing more ciuel than striking a child about the head, and any woman ought to be punished who does it. The faults for which tblssortof punishment should be administered, to old and young alike, this punishment that hurts and is mortifying, should be for mean faults. Those of greediness, impertinence, irreverence, untruthfulness and selfishness. The New York Street Cleaning Department ought just now to b* put under spankers who have great strength of arm. Beautiful boots in which to walk are an absolute impossibility here. Clean ones are equally impossible and the street cars have a method of their own of stopping just in front af puddles of slush, puddles not deep enough to drown lovely woman, but to splash her all over. I am not surprised that foreigners laugh at our streets. Any oeuntry road is In a better condition than is Fifth avenue today, and this state of affairs exists in the

largest city ot the greatest republic l» the world. DINNER ADVICE.

Bye-the-bye, a woman asked me to tell her something about successful dinners. Here is what I have got to say:

A hostess who wants to make her dinners popular, may have them as simple as she likes, but thore are some lawa she must observe as strictly and with as mnoh foroe as those of the Medes and Persians.

She must not bake what ought to be roasted, nor serve a dition that nobody knows whether It fs| a gutta peroha shoe or a piece of Lin*" orusta Walton.

She must not have the napery stardbiefi so stiffly that the man with the youthful mustaohe feels that every time he passe# his napkin to his mouth he is risking the destruction of the pride of his life.

She must not oount the sweets as of the greatest importance, nor should she believe that a bad dinner oan be saved by a muoh decorated cake, or an elaborately ioed pudding.

She must not have a servant wjio is Interested in anything exoept serving he should not Bmile at a funny story, nor should he seem interested when the future of Ireland is being disoussed.

She should see that her coffee is as dear as her consolenoe and as strong as her love.

She should not attempt too elaborate a menu, as she wishes each dish to rdacb the height of perfection.

And when the successful dinner is achieved, she should give the oook a large dose of enoouragement—amedicine always pleasant to take. The woman who understands the art of dinner giving is the woman who is past mistress in the art of keeping her husband at home.

Fibbing Children.

Chicago kindergarten teaoher saya that mothers come to her so often asking how they shall break their children from telling untruths that she has almost oome to think that lying is a national evil. She divides children's falsehoods into four classes. Th- first is the lie of excessive imagination, and the treatment is "inonlcation of exactness of observation, eitl by precept o* in play." The second is the lie of egotism, the remedy for which is objective work .that will take thought from self. A third class of lies is evolved through fear of punishment, and sympathy is the oure. "In all such cases.'' the kindergartnerin adds, "the child must be shown the justice of his punishment." The fourth division includes children addicted to the jealous lie, as saying that they have things which they have not, because the boy around the corner has them: The cure in this instance is love and appreciation, that the child may understand that he does not need these coveted possessions to gain or keep his friends. All mothers*will be interested in this matter, as few are not called upon to meet these childish prevaricators. ... .wv... -V.' ., V-

The Improving American Girl.

Outdoor life, delight in action, the spirit of sport, have taken hold of American womanhood. Girls of strong physique, erect carriage and energetio spirit, delighting in tennis, riding, boating, walking, are now the rule. The feeble, indoor do nothing is the exception, and the result is a tall, vigorous race, with free steps and cheeks aglow with the ruddy color df physical health and energy. Walk along the avenues of any large city at the fashionable hours, and the procession of bright animated girlhood which passes before one's eyes give ample proof of summer activity. All over the country, where there are men and money to start a club and create a sporting interest, the women also have their share of advantages, and in not a few cases their fair share also of the work of setting the organizations on foot. There are few country olubs, hunt clubs, tennis olubs or other sporting olubs throughout the Unicm which have not a lady membership.

Catarrh in the Head.

Catarrh is an inflammation of the mucous membranes, and may affect the head, throat, stomaoh, bowels or bladder. But catarrh of the head is the most common, often coming on so gradually that it has a firm hold before the natrre of the trouble is suspected. Catarrh is caused by a cold, or succession of colds, combined with impure blood. Itslocal symptoms are fullness and heat in the forehead, dryness in the nose and back part of the throat, and a disagreeable discharge from the nose. When the disease gains a firm hold and becomes chronic, it is very dangerous,' being liable to develop into oonBU(nptloQ.tThe eyes become inflamed and l?6d, these is throbbing in the temples, ringing noises in the ears, headache, oaprlolous appetite, and sometimes loss of sense of smell and hearing. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the remedy for this ever increasing malady. It attacks at once the source of the disease by purifying and enriching the blood, which, as it reaches the delicate passages of the mucous membrane, soothes and rebuilds the tissues, giving them a tendency to health instead of dlseass, and ultimately curing the affec tlon. At the same time Hood's Sarsaparilla builds up the whole system and makes one feel as if made anew.

THE PROPER WAY TO CUT A WAI&T LINING,

Directions For Drafting a Pattern to Suit Any Figure—Measurement* Must Be A«'«M4te- Allow Eleven Inches at Waist

Line For Seams.

[Copyright, 1805, by American Precis Aeaociation.J The system of wal4t cutting and fitting is alwnya tho samo and based upon tho same principles, though gomotlmos a very pronounucd new style may render certain ohanges or modifications necessary. At tlie present time the wttidt is cut in eight pieces, or at least tho lining is—viz, two fronts, two side fronts, two side backs and twooonter baok pieces. A dingram is given showing their form and relative positions. This gives what is called a model basque, and this is the foundation of almost all the waists, whether plain basques, round waists, coats or princess gowns. To adapt it to the different requirements is so easy that any One oan do it who knows anything at all about dressmaking.

With tho outline of the model basque drafted, a low bodice can be made by marking off that portion to be out away,

whether shaped or rounding. If the waist is too long, it can be shortened by making a fold in the pattern at the waist line, thereby taking out the unnecessary length. In the same place—viz, at tho waist line—the basque can be lengthened by sliding tho pattern down after the upper portion is cut to the proper lengtl?. To widen it allow as many inches as aro necessary and divide them, adding the fraction to every seam as it is cut out. In that way the proper proportion is maintained.

In these days it is so easy to purchase a reliable pattern at a nominal cost that it is scarcely necessary to give detailed directions as to drafting a pattern, but it may be well to say a few words to those who cannot get exactly such a pattern as they want.

A stiff paper should be laid flat, and an outline drawn as nearly like the diagram as possible as to form, but as large as will be required, with an inch or more of space all around to spare. The length of the waist in front should be taken and the number of inches marked on the paper. Three inohes back from this the shoulder measure should be taken and marked, then the length of the shoulder and the length under the arms. The width across the bust from the top of the underarm seam to the notch should be taken and marked across with pencil. The first dart should be 2 inches from the front seam at the top and taper to 2 inches at the bottom. The back dart is from one-half to one inch higher than the front, according to the figure of. the wearer. As the proper height of the darts cannot be determined until the waist is tried on, it is better not to cut out the darts until after it is fitted on.

The back centerpieces should be measured in the same manner and the length of the waist marked. There is a slight hollow in the baok, as will be noticed in the diagram, the narrowest part being in the hollow at tho waist line. The side forms must be traced out with a pencil in a graceful slope. If the wearer be short and thickset, these seams can. reach higher, and that will give greater apparent

The back gore or side form should follow the diagram in shape and aotual measurement for length, and the side gore or underarm piece should be as near like the shape of that in the diogram as possible, the whole to measure about 11 Inohes more around the waist line than the actual measurement, as there are 28 seams to be taken in. If they are taken In half an inch deep, that brings the waist to a

I havo always found it best to allow full 13 inches! for taking in. Some allow more. When the lining is fitted, that which is superfluous can be cut away, but it is not easy to add to Jit. When the outline is marked on

the paper, cut it out and try it

against the figure, and if it is right in the nook and arm size and length of waist the lAing may be out. It requires 1X yards of drilling or sllesia, and it must be cut on the straight. OLIVE HARPER.

Buy Good Pictures*

•Nothing so betrays a lack of culture or its possession as the character of the pictures to be seen in the home. It is better to have one good painting, which age will improve and tho growing reputation of the artist increase In value, than to have your walls crowded with impossible water colors in gorgeous frames and cheap etchings and crayons, which are simply the fad of the hour. By frequenting galleries and studios, instead of blindly relying upon the stock of the so called art departments of dty goods stores, you can buy often at the same cost a picture which will be a joy forever, instead of a miserable makeshift. —Ladles' Home Journal.

RULES' FOR SKATERS.

Captain Johnson Gives Timely Advlee to the Venturesome. Captain C. W. Johnson of the tug D., L. Libbey and a resident of Winneconne, has, from a thorough knowledge of the difficulties and dangers whioh beset tho skater, when be goes throngh the ice, compiled a list of precautionary measures, which he does not expect to bo followed explicitly, but which he is in fyopos will bo heeded by the venturesome.

His timely warning contains excellent advice to all skaters, and the suggestions are as follows:

First.—When you go skating take a ball of strong cord, to one end of which is attached a heavy fish sinker, so that if any one goes through the ice you can stand far enough away from the hole and yet render them assistance by throwing the weighted end of the line to them.

Second. —If you go through the ice whpre there is a strong ourrent, try and keep at the up river end of the hole. Pe^t yoy,r arm on the edge of the ice if possible, but do not attempt to climb out alone, for you will lose the strength which you will need when assistance arrives. If a person remains perfeotly quiet, the cold water does not circulate through bis clothes and his body remains warm. Use every effort to keep away from the down river end of the hole, for the current will sweep you under the ice in a twinkling.

Third. —If no help is near, rest one arm on the ice, raise the foot carefully and one skate can be removed very easily. Take off tho other skate in the same manner, and then with these to aid you your safety is assured.

Fourth.—If you hear any one call for help, do not hasten to the spot unless you have a pole, bush or something that will be of assistance to them.

Fifth.—Best of all, keep off the ice under which there is a strong current. Captain Johnson has saved 13 persons fr6m watery graves during his lifetime. —Oshkosh Northwestern.

A Primary Battery.

Acoording to the Glasgow newspapers, two young Scottish workmen, sons of a mechanic employed in the Singer sewing machine works on the ^Clyde, have invented a battery whicti, it is asserted will revolutionize electrical work, and a great man of science like Lord Kelvin thinks so ranch of it that he offered to buy the patent rights for $50,000. The inventors, aged 21 and 18 years, have, it is said, made a primary battery "in which, while the decomposition of the zino plates is rendered enormously slower and the chemicals used are of trivial value, the strength of the battery thus formed is very greatly increased." The battery has been put to some severe tests and is said to have stood them triumphantly. It is evident that these lads have made some sort of a discovery which is likely to bring them fortune, but general expert opinion discredits the idea of an electrical revolution.

An American Translator of Horace.

General Thomas W. Hyde of Bath, despite the manifold cares of his busy life, has been engaged during his few leisure hours in translating Horace's odes. After reading Gladstone's work the general was moved to write tho English author upon some details of their mutual work and recently received the following autographio note in reply:

DKAR SIB—1 promptly acknowledge your frWinpga, and I think it a great honor that my poor effort should be noticed from beyond the Atlantic by a fellow laborer to whom 1 wish a success more perfect than my own. Yours very faithful and obedient,

Baby's Nose. -yJ,-

It is quite common for children to get beans and other hard substances up the nose, and about the first thing one does on discovering them is to poke them farther up in frantio efforts to get them out. A remedy that acts like a charm at times is to force the child's mouth open, and cov ering its mouth with your own to blow very hard. The force will often expel the substance without other trouble. About the safest thing to do is to take the child immediately to the doctor.—Washington Star.
