V rThe Latest Notions Present Some At tractive Draperies. The window hangings, draperies in general and other accessories that make for the adornment of the house "beautiful and that the art 'decorators are now showing are lux urious. to a degree. It is noticeable that there is as much latitude allow ed in the selection of draperies by the woman who would he fashiona ble, so far as her house is concern ed, as there is in the choice of her wardrobe. The holland or plain linen shade that for so many years remained un adorned save for a more or less elaborate fringe is now transformed into a thing of beauty by a fringe of applique lace and insertion of the same in artistic pattern. In one style of holland line shade sfeen recently the applique design w r as on a foundation of black net, but the color was not apparent when the light shone through the shade, and the combination of the light buff linen and the lace was exceedingly effective. Brussels net with a broad border of silk applique on heavy net repre sents one of the latest designs in handsome lace curtains, although Arabian lace is still the favorite in the^more costly window hangings. In the line of heavier drapery for the window or for portiere use the silk curtains in- the most delicate shades, with embroidered edge in silk to match and applique or silk in self color, are exquisite, particu larly in the shades of pale pink and blue that are just a little darker than the pastel colorings. For summer use in particular, but not necessarily confined to this par ticular season, are the Scotch mad ras curtains, which are now found on the list. They can hardly be considered as costly or luxurious ' draperies, but they are beautiful in the finer grades, which drape as gracefully as crepe de chine and are really as soft as this poplar dress ' material. To mention the color combinations would be to catalogue all the possible, variations of yellow and brown and red and blue and green and pink in artistic effect. —————— j Color In Decoration?. It is quite a common thing for rooms to be decorated with one par ticular color, paint, carpet and hangings all agreeing, so that they can be known as the “green room” or the “blue room” or the “pink room,” etc., according to their col orings. The idea works out charm ingly* but failure sometimes comes about through a too great sameness in the color of the surroundings. The decorations of a room may be emphasized by one particular color scheme, but yet admit of slight re lief color being introduced to avert monotony. A green room, for in stance, may be relieved with a touch of gold in the damask hangings, wall paper or carpet or with a dash of terra cotta if preferred, and in the same way a pink room can have, by way of association, touches of canvas color, fawn or pale green. A blue room can be relieved with ivo ry or dull gold, yellow room With white or a very little faint blue, and ia red room will look all the better for being touched up with a soft shade of green. Green, in fact, is a color that in one or another of its varying shades is a safe “associa tion” with almost any hue. Of this fact we may take a lesson from na ture, the brightest flower of whatso ever color being beautified by its ac companying green leaf. Two shades of the same color can be used instead of a strong contrast if preferred. The woodwork of the loom will look all the better for be ing painted a deeper shade than the walls. It will thus, throw up the paler tint and balance the whble better. Wanted Nate Salsbury to Salute First Advance Agent. It was raining cats and dogs when Salsbury and Major Burke of the Buffalo Bill Wild West aggregation left the transport at Barcelona, and the latter, when half way down the gangplank, removed his hat, says the New York Press. “Put on your hat, Burke. Your head is getting wet,” urged the manager. “Look “WHY, HE’S BEEN YOUB ADVANCE AGENT BOB FOUR HUNDRED YEARS.” there,” said the major. “Where ? don't see anything.” “There, there, man!” “I don't see anything but rain. Put your hat on.” “What, keep my hat on in the presence of that?” “But you're getting soaked, man. Don't stand there like a fool. Put your hat on.” “Never! Not while in that noble presence!” “Now, John, you're going crazy!” “But, man, don't you see it ? Can’t you recognize it ?” “The only thing I see is a statue of Columbus. What of it?” “My dear fellow, can you ask ‘what of it ?' Why, he’s been your advance agent for 400 years!” Butler's Clincher. “I think General Butler was the best posted man on all questions be fore congress I ever saw,” said an ex-congressman to the New York Sun. “Now and then some con gressman inferior to him in brains ■and information got the advantage of him, but he more often came off victorious in that arena. He and Sam Cox once got into one of those long running debates on the floor of congress, each often putting ques tions to the other in the most perti nent and brilliant way. It was Damascus blade against Damascus blade. At last Cox put some wor rying question' to him, leaving his seat to do so, with a gleam in his eye as if saying, ‘Now, old fellow, I've got you where you must confess or surrender.' Butler, being tired of the badgering, turned on him as a manner in which it was said coming upon the house so unexpect- as IJncle Remus says, Cox lost his money bag, and he wilted as if an ice shower bath had fallen suddenly on his little person. Butler walked over and congratulated him upon his defeat. Both had a good laugh over it, and both retired at once, as if hunting some place that Mrs. Na tion would smash with a hatchet.” •A Veal Cutlets. : |jj§pL hint that will.be acceptable to .many housekeepers relates to the |cookmg of veal cutlets. A tough cutkt is so common that it is ac cepted at many-tahles as obligatory. The simple act of scoring a cutlet on both sides with the point of a sharp knife, 'drawing many fine lines quickly across, accomplishes a re markable-change in the meat alter it is cooked.

It is not the quantity of food which is eaten, but the quantity which is as similated, which determines the val ue of the food consumed. If the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition cannot convert the food into nourishment, and into blood, then the food is an injury inr stead of a benefit. For all disorders of the stomach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition, there is a certain remedy in Dr. Pierce’s Gold en Medical Discovery. It removes dogging obstructions. It strength ens the stomach, nourishes the nerves, enriches the blood and builds up the body. It is a flesh-forming, muscle making preparation, making Arm flesh instead of flabby fat. “Golden Medical Discovery contains no alco hol, whiskey or intoxicant of any kind, and is equally free from opi um, cocaine and all narcotics. P" A WOMAN’S WAY. tgrr wm ... . The-following story.is told apro pos of the recent panic in Wall street: An army officer stationed in the Philippines has been sending home his salary for his wife to save. She Bought to add to it by taking a flier in Wall street. She had invested ev ery dollar of her husband's savings, and in the panic of Thursday all was swept away. She appealed to Henry Clews, with whose firm she had dealt. “If I show you the way to get your money back, will you promise me that yon will, not speculate again?” asked the broker. “Indeed I will,” tearfully assent ed the woman. “Well, here's your money. Now, keep out of the market.” Clews said afterward that he had not invested the money. A broker in the Waldorf-Astoria cafe who listened to the story laugh ed. “Well, that's one on Clews. That woman brought the money right over to my office and asked me to buy Delaware and Hudson with it. I did so, and she made $5,400.”—New York World. When the Range Is Resting. In discontinuing the coal range for the summer some cafe is needed for its proper preservation. It seems almost trite to say that the last fire should he dumped and the ashes and dust entirely removed, but experi ence has shown that this caution is needed. . The ovens should be taken , out and the spaces in which they fit thoroughly cleaned and greased. Grease the oven also and the range implements—shaker, shovel, poker, etc.—together with the iron grates and such other parts of the range as are liable to rust. These trifling precautions will save time and mon ey when the range is to be put into commission again and should be ob served whether the house is to he closed or not.
