DOORS OF VENEER.
Few Door.. No* Even the More Cent.
*F, Made o( Solid Wood.
The very finest of doors are made
nowadays of veneer on a body of pine.
Even when made of mahogany or some
other costly wood doors have to be ve
neered. The body of the door is made
of a plain, straight grained mahogany,
while the surfaces are veneers of fine
wood.
In the finest doors tbo body is made
of selected white pine, free from sap
and perfectly seasoned, which is cut in
to narrow strips and then glued to
gether. The outer edges of this door are
faced with what is called a veneer, but
which is really a strip of the fine wood
half an inch or more in thickness. The
inner edges of the frame, by the panels,
are covered in the same manner with
thick strips, in which the ornamental
moldings or carvings are made and
which are grooved to receive the panels.
This built up frame of white pine,
with edges of the fine wood, is then
veneered with the fine wood. In some
lighter doors the panels may be of solid
mahogany, but in fbe finer, larger and
heavier doors the panels also are made
of sheets of white pine with a veneering
of the fine woqd, so that the entire door
is veneered.
It would be difficult, if not impossi
ble, to procure at any cost mahogany
lumber in fine and beautiful woods of
sufficient size for the larger doors. The
built up and veneered door of pine
wood, however, has every appearance
of a solid door, and, made of selected
veneers, it may be more beautiful than
a solid door would be. It is more serv
iceable and remains longer perfect. Its
cost is about half what a solid door
.would cost.—New York Sun.
WASHINGTON RELICS.
Article* of Priceless Worth Kept In
tlic National Museum.
One of the most interesting relics in
the National museum at Washington is
the camp chest used by Washington
throughout the Revolution. It is a com
pact affair about the size of a tourist’s
wicker chest for cooking of the present
day, 2% feet long, 2 feet wide, 1 foot
high, anfedt contains an outfit consist
ing of tinder box, pepper and salt
boxes, bottles, knives, forks, gridiron
and plates. Every bit of the outfit save
one bottle, which is broken at the
shoulder, looks strong enough to stand
another campaign.
Near by are the tents used by Wash
ington—three in number. One is a
sleeping tent, 28 feet long, with walls
6 feet high and a roof with a 6 foot
pitch. It is made of linen. The other
two are marquee tents of smaller size,
one with walls, the other a shelter tent
open on the sides. That the tenting ma
terial of Revolutionary days was good
stuff is proved by the excellent condi
tion of these tents, which sheltered the
great commander through all his severe
campaigns.
Here also is Washington’spmfonn,
worn by him when he
mission as commander of tne
army, at Annapolis in 1788. It consists
of a big shadbelly coat of blue broad
cloth, lined and trimmed with soft
buckskin and ornamented with broad,
flat brass buttons; buckskin waistcoat
and breeches. The size of the garments
(which are in a state of excellent pres
ervation) testify to the big stature of
the Father of His Country and sug
gest that he had an eye to a fine ap
pearance in his dress. Washington

Factorlen Without Chimneys,
The statement that a chimney, the
third or fourth tallest in the world, has
just been completed at a cost of $53,-
000,- and the announcement that the
most f ratifying success has attended the
use of forced draft, without any chim
neys whatever out of the ordinary, ap.
pear in contemporary journals. The ex-
of forced draft gives promise
df great economy in fuel, as well as
doing way with the expensive and un
ornamental chimney. The draft arrange
ment consists of a large fan, which is
connected with a 4 by 4 double cylinder
engine. The fan has a wheel 54 inches
in diameter and runs at almost any rate
of speed desired. The draft is something
prodigious and makes it possible to em
ploy fuel of a lower grade than any
heretofore used. Instead of the best
Cumberland coal, a mixture of Cumber
land and screenings has been tried. The
cost of operating the fan, even with im
perfect apparatus, is something like
SBOO per annum. The smokestack is
scarcely taller than the roof of the
building and of less capacity than that
heretofore used for such purposes.—New
York Ledger.
Story of Lincoln.
This Lincoln story is told in Short
Stories: A New York firm applied to
Abraham Lincoln some years before he
became president for information as to
the financial standing of one of big
neighbors. Mr. Lincoln replied as fol
lows:
Yours of the 10th inst. received. lam well
acquainted with Mr. X. and know his circum
stances. First of all, he has a wife and baby;
together they ought to be worth $50,000. Sec
ondly, he has an office, in which there are a
table worth $1.60 and three chairs worth, say,
sl. Last of art, there is in one corner a large
rathole, which will bear looking into. Re
spectfully yours, A. Lincoln.

PAY FEES OR SUFFER
TIPS THAT MUST BE CIVEN ON THE
BIG OCEAN LINERS.
The I'aannfer Who Seeks to Evade This
System es Mild BlackmalHug Has His
Life on Board Made Miserable by tbo
Employees of the Steamship.
The fee system is more rigidly en
forced on a big passenger steamship
than anywhere else. It is one of the
places where servants demand their fees
and tell you the amount that they think
you ought to give them. While the
waiters at restaurants and hotels expect
fees for their services and will hint and
may perhaps make it embarrassing for
you if they are nnt paid they have
not gone so far as t I you that they
want a fee and pr< r.bo the amount.
Even porters do not do that. They come
around, brush your cout -nd hat and
run the whisk over your trousers, but
it is seldom that they ask yon for any
money, let alone a specified amount.
On the passenger steamers the stew
ards regard their fees as a matter of
right as much as the steamship com
pany regards your passage money. It is
possible to avoid paying the fees, as
they are not collectable by law, but the
passenger who does not pay them will
have trouble in getting his luggage off
the steamer, and it would be well for
him to keep off steamers afterward
where any of the servants of that boat
are employed.
Tho stewards seejp to have some sort
of fee guidebook or black list of passen
gers who do not give fees, so that they
can make them suffer on future trips.
Certain fees are regularly fixed and ex
pected, irrespective of the cost of the
stateroom or the style in which a man
travels, while certain other fees depend
on the style. For an ordinaiy passenger
there are fees to be given*to the state
room, steward, the saloon teteward, the
deck steward, the smoking room steward
and the barber and bath man.
The fee to the steward who looks
after your stateroom is about 10 shil
lings. The steward who waits on you
at the table should receive the same fee.
The deck steward, for bringing you an
occasional drink and looking after your
steamer chair and rugs, expects 5 shil
lings, but he will take half a crown.
The smoking room steward expects 5
shillings, and if you are in the smoking
room a great part of the trip he feels
that he is entitled to as much as the
stateroom steward or your waiter. A
bath every day on the passage can be
had for a 5 shilling fee.
These rates are fixed by long custom. ,
The stewards can tell whether or not a
man understands the rates and if he will
pay at the end of the trip. If they do
not think that he will, they give him
hints from time to time until they get
some assurance on his part that he
recognizes the obligation of the fee sys
tem. If they think he will not pay, he
will have a hard time of it. He will
find that his stateroom is not well made
up: that he does not get care when he
is seasick; that he is served last at the
table and does not get the things that
he ordered; that the wrong drinks and
cigars come to him in the smoking
room, and that his steamer chair is con
stantly lost. The servants are as effec
tive as seasickness in making a man’s
trip miserable.
These fees are not to be paid until
the last day of the trip. The servants
very speedily find out at which place a
passenger is to get off. If making his
first trip, they are pretty sure to know
it. It is advisable for him in that case
to tell his stateroom steward and hia
waiter that he will give them the regu
lar fee at the end of the trip if they
serve him properly and that if they do
not they will not get a penny. If he
tells them this in the proper way, hft
will get as good service as the man who
is well known.
The last morning of the trip th estate
room steward comes round for his fee.
If the passenger does not offer it, the
steward suggests that it is customary
to give him a fee, and that the regular
fee is half a sovereign. If anything lesa
is offered him and he thinks he can get
a half sovereign by refusing to accept
less, he will at once hand the proffered
sum back and say in an insolent way
that he never takes lesa than the regu
lar fee.
With many passengers, particularly
women, this remark and the tone ex
tract the 10 shillings. The saloon stew
ard does the same thing. The stewards
work in with each other, and if a man
succeeds in avoiding the stateroom stew
ard the saloon steward will ask him fox
both himself and the stateroom steward.
As a man cannot get off the ship until
it stops, there is no way of escaping
these demands, which will be repeated
during the last day of the trip until the
passenger succumbs.—New York Home
Journal.

Much of the artificial coloring of
foods is traditional and not meant to de

tractiveness of the confectioner’s show
case, and likewise butter and mustard
are colored with no intent to spoil their
purity. "i

Modern Greek pea... :tn exchange*
gold and silver wedding ring, and they
drink wine from the same cup. Bat the
regular ritual of the Greek church or
dains that solemn betrothal precedes the
actual marriage, in which are utod gold
and silver wedding rings blessed by
the priest, the gold ring being given to
the man, the silver ring to the woman.
The form of the espousal is then repeat
ed, and the rings are placed on the right
hands and then exchanged that no in
feriority maybe betokened by the wom
an wearing the silver ring and also to
indicate a common ownership of prop
erty.
An Armenian mother usually chooses
her daughter’s husband. After all busi
ness preliminaries are settled between
the families the bridegroom’s mother,
accompanied by a priest and two ma
trons, visits the bride and gives her a
ring in token of espousal, and with this
ring the couple are ultimately married.
Among the fishing communities very
ancient and elaborate rings are used,
and they descend as heirlooms from
generation to generation.
In Japanese marriages arranged be
tween very young people the girl re
ceives a ring in evidence that the union
is binding. In Malabar an old native
custom seats both bride and bridegroom
on a dais, and a relative washes the
feet of the bridegroom with milk and
puts a silver ring on the great toe of the
right foot. He then hands a gold ring
to his kinsman, and a necklace and
chaplet of flowers are put on tbo bride’s
neck and head.—London Mail
Korea*! Seven Wonders.
The seven wonders of Korea are: (1)
The marvelous mineral spring of Kiu
shanto, one dip in which is a sovereign
cure for all the ills that human flesh is
heir to. (2) The double springs which,
though far apart, have a strange, mys
terious affinity. According to Korean
belief, there is a connection under
ground, through which water ebbs and
flows like the waters of tho ocean, in
such away that only one spring is full
at a time. Tho water possesses a won
derful sweetening power, so that what
ever is cooked therein becomes good and
palatable. (3) Tho cold wind cavern,
whence comes a never ceasing wind so
piercing that nothing can withstand it
and so powerful that the strongest man
cannot face it. (4) The indestructible
pine forest, the trees of which grow
up again as fast as they are cut down.
(5) The floating stone, a massive block
that has no visible support, but, like
Mohammed’s coffin, remains suspended.
(6) The warm stone, situated on the
top of a hill and said to have the pecul
iarity of spreading warmth and heat
all round it. (7) A drop of the sweat of
Buddha, for 80 paces round which no
flower or vegetation will grow, nor will
birds or other living things pass over it.

Saint Norah and the Potato.
St. Norah was a poor girl, says the
London Punch, who prayed St. Patrick
for a good gift that would make her not
proud but useful, and St Patrick, out
of his own head, taught her how to boil
a potato. A sad thing and to be lament
ed, that the secret has come down to so
fowl Since the highest intellectual and
physical life is dependent upon diet—
since the cook makes, while the physi
cian only mends—should not she who
prepares our pies be as carefully trained
as he who makes our pills?
Certainly whatever may be the
knowledge or the ignorance of the serv
ant in the kitchen, the mistress of the
house, be she young or old, ought to be
able, like St. Patrick in the fable, out of
her own instructed head to teach Norah
how to boil a potato or broil a steak so
that they may yield their utmost of rel
ish and nutriment.
Until she can do that, no woman is
qualified to preside over a household,
and since few reach adult life without
being called to that position in the
household of husband, father or broth
er, the legend of St. Norah has a wide
significance.—Youth’s Companion.
The Northwest Indian and His Way*.
The Indian of the plains is a far more
picturesque individual than his brother
or cousin of the coast He does not erect
totem poles and has no timber for the
purpose if so inclined, but he is suffi
ciently spectacular himself without re
sorting to grotesque carvings and paint
ed wood. His saddle, with its leather
hangings and wooden stirrups, is in
itself a remarkable aggregation, and
when set off with his goods and chat
tels tied in bags, rags, strings and
straps, the effect is remarkable. He
wears the cast off garments of his white
brother in such original combinations
that he looks like the personification of
a secondhand store. Sometimes the
adoption of a pair of guernseys as an
external covering gives him quite an
athletic appearance. He wears his hair
in Gertrude braids, and prefers ear
rings about the-size of half dollar coins.
A mosquito net or handkerchief is his
favorite head covering, and if he as
sumes a hat it is as an additional and
purely ornamental appendage.—Detroit
Free Press.
Buried at Santiago.
“Few students of Napoleonic histo
ry,” says the London Chronicle, “are
aware that Dr Antomarchi, who at
tended upon Napoleon I during hia last
illness at St. Helena, is buried in the
cemetery at Santiago de Cuba. He had
a brother living in that island, and
after the emperor’s death proceeded
thither and lived at Santiago, exercis
ing his skill as an oculist gratuitously
among the poor. After his death in
1825 a public monument was erected to
his memory in the local cemetery. ”
Love In Early Daye.
“Yes,” saicfcAdam to Eve as the twi
light drew about the aged couple, sof
tening their lineaments to a semblance
of youth, “how well I remember the
day we met! You wore a diffident
air”—
That was all.—lndianapolis Journal.
