HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
To Moisten the Atmosphere.
To lessen the dry heat in houses
heated by a fnrnacs, some persons set
a small pan. which is kept tilled with
water, in the feeding-pipe
which the hot air enters the room.
This is usually possible only where
the register is in the side wall. Oc¬
casionally, however, if jt is in the floor
the pipe makes a turn just beneath
that secures a firm resting-place for
the basin.
To Make a Lamp Shade.
A pretty lamp-shade, seen in a cot¬
with tage parlor, was of fine imported lawn
small pink flowers scattered on a
solid tint of pale blue. The lawu is
to be preferred to organdie as much
more durable. Orgaudie, all asser¬
tions to the contrary notwithstanding,
is not a washable material, while the
lawn may be done up indefinitely.
Now that lamp-shades are made read¬
ily detachable! from the supporting-
frames it is an easy matter to keej>
them fresh, if fabrics that may be
laundered are used.
A Table For the N ursery.
What any one will admit is ot
practical benefit in a nursery is a table
which a fond mother has evolved
for the child’s use. An ordinary
kitchen table of the largest was pur¬
chased and the legs cut off until it
stood about eighteen inches from the
ground. A carpenter then nailed a
three-inch rail around the edge of the
table. An old felt piano cover was
lacked down with brass-headed nails
on the top of the table, and in this ob¬
long the child passes many delighted
hours. Marbles and balls do not roll
away beyond its reach; toys and books,
too, are kept easily accessible, aud
ike child enjoys her slight vantage
ground above the level of the floor..
The table serves many purposes be¬
sides that of a playground for the
baby. It is here that the nightly rub¬
bing after ihe bath is given aud in
various other ways it proves of ser¬
vice.
A Kitchen Help.
Every housekeeper knows how next
to impossible it is to prevent the sup¬
plies in the kitchen from running low,
and not to find, at the last moment,
that something indispensable is lack¬
ing. A cake is to be made, and there
is no flavoring; Monday morning
comes, the bluing bottle is empty;
Saturday afternoon: “Please, ma’am,
there isn’t any coal,” aud so on to the
end of the chapter. The kitchen
slate, with pencil attached, on which
the cook is told to note down what¬
ever is wanting, is the usual resource,
but even this fails. Sometimes the
memoranda are really rubbed out by
accident, and very often that excuse
is made when something is forgotten.
To avoid this have a small tablet; a
pad of writing paper six by three
inches. Bore a hole in the center of
the upper edge and put a string
through it to hang it up by. Attach
a short lead pencil, well sharpened,
and suspend the pad over the kitchen
table, just where it will be in plain
sight while the cook is at her work.
On this let her write her memoranda,
impressing it upon her that she is not
to wait until a thing is actually out
before ordering it. Then, on your
morning visit to the kitchen, the leaf
can be torn off and given you, and you
have the written list all ready to give
your orders to “butcher and baker
and candlestick maker.”
Kecipes.
Swiss White Soup—One tjuart of
unseasoned broth; boil it; beat au
egg well; add two teaspoons of flour,
one cup of milk. Pour these grad¬
ually through a sieve into the boiling
souji; add one teaspoon of salt aud
four dashes of pepper. Croutons,
vermicelli, Italian pastes or rice may
be added if desired.
Vitos Muffins, With Nuts—Substi¬
tute one-half cup of cooked vitos for
same amount of flour in any muffin
recipe. Chop walnuts or other oily
nuts very fine or pound them in a
mortar. Add one-half cup to the
muffins. They are a valuable addi¬
tion to cold-weather diet, being rich
in oil and proteid wjiich the cereals
lack.
Potato Fillets—Pare and slice the
potatoes thin; cut them in small fil¬
lets about one-quarter inch square;
keep in ice water until wanted; dry
thoroughly; then drop into boiling
lard until nearly done. Remove with
a skimmer and drain; boil up the
lard again; drop the potatoes back
and fry till done. This operation
causes them to swell up and puff.
Anchovy Canapes—Slices of bread
are cut into rounds with a small bis¬
cuit cutter and fried a delicate brown.
A layer of anchovy paste is then spread
on them, with a finely chopped olive.
There may be the faintest sprinkle of
some fragrant herb, parsley, pirnper-
nelle or chervil, To serve, arrange
the canapes on a round platter in a
star pattern, with a bunch of green
cress in the middle.
Meringues a la Chantilly—Beat a
pound of confectioners’ sugar stiff
with the egg whites left from the
oysters, flavor with five drops of bit¬
ter almond essence.^Drop on paper
in egg shapes and bake in a moderate
oven until faintly brown. When cold
elice off the top, press hollow with tho
spoon handle, fill with Chantilly
• whipped) cream and top each with a
cube of vivid-colored jelly.

The Country’s Biggest Aeditarium.
The largest auditorium in the coun¬
try is to bo opened in Kansas City by
Sousa’s Band aud a ball on Washing¬
ton’s birthday. The building is lie-
ing erected by a stock company, and is
called Convention Hal'. The outside
dimensions arc 198 by 314 feet, giving
an arena floor of 60,000 square feet, an
amphitheatre floor of 31.000 square
feet, besides a second gallery and a
roof garden, bringing the total floor
space up to 153, TOO square feet. The
standing capacity is 76.00 -j people, and
the total seating capacity 20.000. Ill
the arena there is a robin for six cir¬
cus rings. The cost, $100,000, is con¬
sidered very small for s» large a build¬

Tie Situation at Manila.
The situation at Manila was very
simple, says Ira Nelson Hollis in the
Atlantic. L pou the declaration of war
Adnilral Dewey was turned out of
Hong Kong by Croat Britain, and all
other Asiatic ports were closed to
him. He was seven thousand miles
away from home, a distauee winch
none of bis siiips could make without
recoaling, and his line of communion-
ti<m was liable to interruption at any
time. Furthermore, the safety of our
Pacific coast trade was in jeopardy
se long as a hostile vessel remained
in the Orient. The duty was a plain
one—to obtain a base in the Philip
pines, and to capture or destroy every
Spanish ship that could be found.
With rare good judgment Admiral
Dewey made straight for Manila, and
caught the whole fleet before they
had time to scatter, lie had already
proven himself to he a man of fore-
sight by loading up witli provisions
and coal before war was declared.
When the English told him to go he
was ready. His fleet passed through
the fortified entrance of Manila Day
by night, and attacked the ships and
shore batteries simultaneously. The
victory over wliat must be conceded
to have been a weak ami disorganized
foe. although, gun for gun. there was
not inuell difference 111 the two sides,
was a great one in the splendid man¬
agement of the American siiips and
in the results which must flow from
our enforced entrance into Asiatic
politics.
Benjamin Franklin’s Nepotism.
In the Century 1’iuil l.eieester Ford
writes of “Franklin's Family Rela¬
tions,” the first of a series of papers
on “The Man.v-s-ided Franklin.” which
lie will contribute to that magazine.
Of Franklin’s grandson, Benjamin
Franklin Bacho. Mr. Ford says: When
! Franklin went to Franco in 1770. lie
took ilis ■ grandson with him. lo “give
him a little French language and ad-
dress.” Willi still other ends in view,
j so soon as lie was whiled in Paris, he
“sent Mm to finish his education at
Geneva,” as “I intend him for a Pres-
: liyterian as well as a republican.”
Here the boy remained four years, and
; then returned to live with his grand¬
father, who wrote the mother: “I have
a great deal of pleasure in Ben. He
is a good honest lad, and will make, I
think, a valuable man.” “He gains
daily upon my affection,” and "we
love hilt! very much." Young Bacho
came to America with his grandfather,
and by liis aid was established as a
i' ri, iter. Franklin supplying ail the
equipment for the office, which he left
him in his win. together with other
property. ' In his lielralf. also, he asked
WttsIlin gton for sonK , lrl „ h i f , office. an
application which shared the same '
fate as that he bad made for his other
grandson, i>y being refused. it was
Ilie common feeling of the time that
Franklin had used his civil office to
serve his family more than to serve
tin' public, and so there was sufficient
DUt‘.1utIict* to make exclusion of liis
relatives almost a policy witli (lie new
government.. This discrimination, in
time, led to ill feeling, and eventually
Benjaiuin Franklin Ha die became the
standard-bearer of 1 lie journalists who
