RAIN NEEDED WASHING. Mr. Richard Mansfield is not cel ebrated for his lively sense of hu mor, but this serious cast of his mind does not prevent him from occasionally indulging in a bit of humor no less enjoyable because unconscious. Kecently in conduct ing a dress rehearsal of a play in wliicK occurs a rain scene Mr. Mans field and his entire company began coughing violently from a shower of dust which suddenly filled the wings. "Stage rain” is generally made by the dropping of split peas in a drum cylinder, and in this case there was an instant suspicion that the "rainbox” had not recently been cleaned. But none of the stage hands vol unteered the information until Mr. Mansfield fiercely exclaimed: Xf i demand to know where this abominable dust comes from!” Finally one of the men, more courageous than his associates, ven tured the explanation, “I think it comes from the rainhox, sir.” a "And ca-ff-n’t you wash the Tain?” inquired Mr. Mansfield in all seriousness.—Saturday Evening Post. Garland and the Mushrooms. Hamlin Garland, who is now, t>y residence at least, a New Yorker, is well known among, his friends for the seriousness with which he re gards his work and the importance which he attaches to his position in literature. An example of this was given when Mr. Garland recently visited a friend, whose wife brought in for Sunday night tea a dishful of fresh mushrooms, which she had procured from a neighboring hot house. The distinguished author regarded them with undisguised suspicion. "Are you sure, madam,” he asked with great concern, "that these are not a poisonous variety of mush room?” 1 The hostess assured him 'that they were harmless and edible, but he still hesitated, looking specula tively into space. The host asked Trim if he still feared. - "No,” replied Mr. Garland; "I was just thinking of the effect, should you be wrong, on American letters.”—New York Times. A Morganatic Marriage. A friend called to see Russell Sage a few days ago and in the few minutes he remained incidentally asked the financier his opinion oi Cecil Rhodes* will. Mr. Sage replied that he did not consider Rhodes’ idea of the unifi cation of the English speaking peo ples a practical one and that if any alliance came about between the United States and Great Britain it would not be for sentimental rea sons, but rather through commer cial and financial interests. "Then, Mr. Sage,” said his ques tioner, "you think if any closer po litical relations are established be tween John Bull’s monarchy and Columbia these will be the result of great industrial schemes engineered by such men as J. Pierpout Mor gan ?” “Yes; what one* might perhaps call a Morganatic marriage,” chuc kled Uncle Russell. ‘Uncle John” is a man who drives tourists to see the famous Stanford tomb. One day when he was driving a lady out to the tomb he chanced to remark that he and Leland Stanford were both born in Albany, N. Y. When the tomb was reached, the tourist glanced at the inscription on the tomb and in a "Now I’ve caught you” tone said: "Why, you said that you and Mr. Stanford were both born in Albany, and it says there as plain as day that he was born in Mortality!”— Lippincott’s Magazine. A Very Delicate Souvenir. A correspondent of the Boston Journal tells of a certain delicate souvenir owned by a resident of Washington, which was exhibited by its proud owner. It was a gold ring made of the fillings of the teeth of his dead wife. Whether the teeth were removed after death and cracked like butternuts to se cure the gold or whether the gold was simply chiseled out, leaving the teeth in the jaw, deponent cannot state. The association seemed to be pleasant, whatever the process of removal. ALL OVER THE HOUSE. You Can Exercise Skill In Properly Cleaning a Floor. Genuine skill can be exercised in cleaning a floor as in anything else. After the rugs and carpets have been taken up a floor that is not finished in any other way should be thor oughly scrubbed and dried before it is covered again. It is economy to lay down floors of matched boards of good, seasoned wood, which will not warp and show the cracks. Aft er the carpet is up and the dust has been thoroughly swept up and has settled scrub the wood with warm water and sal soda, cleaning and scrubbing about a square yard of surface at a time. It pays to have two pails, one of soda and water to scrub the floor with and one of clear hot water to rinse it up with. Use two cloths, one to wipe up the floor and the other to dry with. When the floor is scrubbed, wash and dry these cloths before you use them for another cleaning. If the floor is hardwood, it would better be dress ed by a regular finisher, as there are few maids in this country who are willing or intelligent enough to do this work, though this is the regular part of the maid’s work abroad, and the tools furnished in this country for the purpose are much easier to handle than those used in Europe. Cushion In Italian "Cut Work.” Italian "cut work” embroidery, similar to that in vogue in the four teenth and fifteenth centuries, to gether with the fine linen thread lace of the same period, was con spicuous in a recent exhibit of art embroidery. The work is done on linen and is remarkable for the clev er adaptation of the geometrical cir cle and square in its designs. The “buttonhole,” the raised "satin” and the "weaver’s” or "darning” stitch es are those most commonly used. The lace is imported and very much resembles the Maltese lace in char acter. A pretty sofa cushion is made of two squares of linen (14 by 14 inches), ornamented at the four corners on either side, with a de sign in “cut work” embroidery; a broad insertion of lace Unites the two squares, the handsome crimson brocade of the cushion being reveal ed through the lace. The New Centerpieces. Centerpieces and doilies are most ly lace trimmed this season, not with renaissance lace, however, as has been the case now these many seasons. Some very fine pi'eees of the renaissance are still to he found in which there are noticeably few of the rings which made that lace so heavy. The Austrian handmade lace, known as crepon, has almost completely usurped its place. -There are also some centerpieces decorated with white Irish embroidery and some made of Chinese grass linen, embroidered in the rose, dragon and cherry blossom designs that have long been familiar on fans and other trophies of the orient. Some of the grass linen pieces have the white ground, with blue or white embroidery of white. There- are scarfs as well as centerpieces in thesA importations. Fragrant Dried Leaves For insomnia. The fair insomnia sufferer will be glad to know that a sympathetic genius has been catering to her wants and has placed on the market what is termed a "sleeper’s reti cule,” made of some bright colored muslin or silk in the old fashioned reticule shape. It is lace trimmed and drawn up with ribbons. It is hung within easy reach of the bed and contains a handkerchief, a tiny jar of cold cream, a bottle of smell ing salts and a linen colored sachet filled with fragrant dried leaves from an oriental shrub. The odor from this sachet is said to cause nervous and excitable persons who are inclined to be wakeful to fall into a sweet and refreshing sleep. Ragout of Beef. Few cooks know as good a recipe for ragout of beef as this: Melt and brown thoroughly half an ounce of butter; add an ounce of flour and stir till brown and smooth; pour in slowly half a pint of stock, same quantity of boiled and drained Span ish onions; stir until sauce thickens and add a pound of cold roast beef cut into nice neat slices. Cook slow ly until the beef is heated through; remove slices and arrange on a dish, each overlapping the other; pour sauce over it, garnish with choppec gherkins and decorate with horse radish. Crash Portiere. A unique portiere or panel slide is of heavy, coarse, dark gray crash, in the center of which is painted in tapestry colors a large conventional design of two peacocks on either side of a rosebush, with a back ground of brownish green. The whole is outlined with heavy silk in the prevailing colors. The effect is striking and at a distance bears a resemblance to old tapestry. The,Big Basin Forest. In the northern part of San Jose county, Cal., and lapping over into San Mateo county lies the so called Big basin, a bit of the primitive forest. The exact area of the tract is about 2,500 acres. It contains one of the finest stretches of wood land which remain in the state. The characteristic tree is the giant redwood. It has been proposed to convert the basin into a forest pre serve.
