There are so many reforms in progress,

and wake persons to the fact that theie is
no reason why a kitchen should be the
symbol of discomfort and despair. Food
is the preservation of health
and mind, and its suitable prepa-
ration is a.s “noble’’ an
tiou as any other. The trouble arises
from the fact that any sort of room and
furniture are “good enough for the
kitchen;” the result of this theory is that
no one can blame a refined woman for
“hating the ugly place,’’ and becoming
morbid and gloomy when obliged to
work there, for we all know that how¬
ever tasteful the other rooms are, the
average kitchen presents cracked walls,
bare, worn floors, and an air of neglect in
spite of the weekly cleaning. that house¬

the amount of wall paper and protects
the wall from chair-backs to ceil them lip
to a height of four feet; this ceiling is,
of course, to be painted like the doors
and window-frames. All of the wood¬
work, including the wood box and cup¬
boards, should be painted to harmonize
with the paper.
Paint the old, wooden chairs some
harmonious colors, and place a soft,

There must also be a bracket or high
shelf for the lamp, so that the light will
be diffused for evening work.
Carpet the .whole floor with a cloth bright, in

board; avoid loose nondescript pieces of
carpet, or anything shabby. Protect the
walls behind the stove, sink, and xvith

or white; make the window curtains of

Make some large, pretty holders of

everything of this kind should be neatly

Nicotine.
The quantity of nicotine in tobacco
varies from two to as much as six and
even eight per cent.; taking the tobacco
containing the smallest quantity of nico¬
tine for every 100 grains—say quarter of
an ounce—there would be contained in it
two grains of nicotine. An ordinary pipe¬
ful of tobacco would hold about one-
twelfth of an ounce, and an ordinary cigar
Avould contain about a quarter of an
ounce, and therefore they Avould contain
nicotine to the extent of fid, or nearly
tAvo thirds of a grain in the case of the
pipeful, and about two grains in the ease
of a cigar. If the tobacco containing
most uieotine Avere used, the quantities Nicotine
would be increased four-fold.
is a very powerful poison, one twenty-fifth grain be¬
ing sufficient to kill and the
part of a grain sufficient to cause intense
suffering. The proportion of this sub¬
stance inhaled by the smoker not only
varies with the various kinds
of tobacco, but also Avith the rapidity
of the burning; and in the case of a
pipe, Avith its form and length, and the
material of Avhich it is made, and also
with many other circumstances. The
reason why a smoker icceives less injury
than might be expected z from cte-L the nature
co is common steam, and tins familiar
substance renders the poison compara- prob-
tively innocuous. Another reason of the
ably is that, as in case

can adapt itself to the poisonous nature
of the inhalation so an to be able to stand
cress V said to destroy the toxic principle
of tobacco without damaging its other
qualities, it being sufficient to moisten the
tobacco with the juice of the watercress
to deprive the tobacco of its deleterious
effects.
It is avcII know’n that a cigar, Avhen cut
up toxication, and smoked in a pipe, produces Avould in-
or nausea, such as not

smoked in an ordinary Avay; tlie reason
is that the tobacco of which the cigar is

Tiie practice of guying is unpardon-
able, and the indulgence in it un-
worthy of an artist or a gentle- passed
man. The leisure hours
in a dressing room or a greenroom afford
ample time for an actor's amusement
without inflicting the < xuborance of his
personal humor upon the audience. The
rehearsals and subsequent performances he has
of a play are not his property, and
no right to mutilate them. Managers
and leading actors are altogether and too ruin- lax
in their rebuke of this senseless
ous practice. They shohld neither com¬
mit the outrage themselves nor leads permit the il
in other?. “Where example and
way” the multitude will follow, nc
leader can rightly claim the respect of his
company unless he show's it to them and
the public. I have a suspicion that guy¬
ing begins where ability leaves off, and
that many actors exhibit this trifling to
conceal their own shortcomings. — Cen¬

Irish Poets.
From Charles de Kay’s profusely illus¬
trated article on the “Old Poetic Guild
in Ireland” avc quote the following; “The
long training of the people in verse-com¬
posing and verse-reciting predisposes
them to the composition of poetry of some
degree of excellence. Irishmen and Irish¬
women as a rule have a knack at writing
if they receive any education at all, and
are natural journalists and Avriters at an
early age. The last remarkable poet of
the file kind known Ireland was Carolan,
the blind bard of the last century, Avhose
portrait, and some of Avhose verses, trans¬
lated find in the original, were published peripa¬
by James Hardiman. lie was as
tetic as Homer is said to have been, blind
also, and certainly a fine* if not a great
poet. Though the race is not extinct,
little except the most ordinary verse is
published in Irish to-day, the audience
being too small to tempt the most ardent
patriot. With all its inherited short¬
comings, and with the evils that befell it
owing to circumstances, the poetic guild
of ancient Ireland did the Avorld a great
service in keeping from destruction his¬
torical and national data lost from other
parts of Europe. It also added not a lit¬
tle to the world's stock of tragic, of noble,
and of comic fiction .”—The Century.
