Said the porcelain dog to the china
cat,
As they sat ensconced on the crochet
mat; .
"It's great to be back from . the an
tiquary." "
Said the China cut to the don: "Oh
very."
New York, June 30. The answer to
what next, my dears.,is whatnot. Now
what do you think of that? Nothing
more nor less than the old fashioned
whatnot is what we may expect if the
craze for Victorian modes extends
from our clothes to our homes at the
rate it is spreading. At the moment
of goingto press we have with us in
the midst of our smartest homes to
day all the wherewithal to dock that
atroicity of oldfashioned taste, the
whatnot, so why not go the limit and
drag it down from the garret, dust
off its shelves and set it up in the
chosen corner. Truly the procclain
dog and the china cat, the glass flow
ers and the framed sampler can never
feel at home outside a whatnot en
vironment. Indeed it isj only fitting
that we should have a proper setting
for our hoopskirts and scollops, our
fichues and bell sleeves, our shoulder
capes and poke bonnets; hence un
doubtedly the irevival of the. smirking
porcelain poodle door-stops, the green
and yellow china parrots swaying in
gilded hoops, the worsted embroidered
firescreens and footrests that now in
fest the truly modern and artistic
hearth and home. The crocheted and
braided rag rugs are on all our
smartest floors, lying in wait for the
voluminous silken skirts of the good
old days to brail over them. But alas!
no silken skirts can touch them now
in these the days of highwater ballet
effects. Daguerreotypes of Grandpa
as a soldier and Grandma as a bride
adorn the mantlepieee, sharing the
honors with an urn-shaped potpourri
jar of purple glass. Our smartest bil
letdoux are penned with gny-hued
quills that rest as in days of yore in
little painted glass jars half filled
with gleaming shot. On rush bot
tomed chairs we rest(?) whose high
straight backs are festive with paint
ed garlands n their painted cross
pieces. The castor and the urn-i
shaped knife and fork cases reign on
our antique Sheriton buffets. Majol
ica fruit baskets, soup tureens and
colored glass cake stands have broken
in on our smartest tables and are be
ing broken in our smartest kitchens.
Above stairs we spurn elwtric lights
and girope our divers ways to bed
with bayberry candles in pewter can
Hie sticks enuinned with quaint and
ancient snuffers. Crawling under the
rose of Sharon patchwork quilt we full
to sleep to dream that we may yet
be overtaken by a visitation of gilded
pine cones, gilded irolling pins, gilded
ginger beer jugs stuffed melon pin
cushions, oastles-in-the-air and wax
wreaths under glass for all the world
like mushrooms"sous cloche" only not
so gastronmically edifying. No doubt
we's awake screaming and jump from
bed only to stumble ovor the porcelain
poodle and the china cat.
