His name was Jacob, Ik Lad been Lis
father's before bias, and bis father's
fatner's. The Storms were a hard-working,
money-getting race. Jacob Storm,
s the father of our hero, constantly said
that "he. couldn't Jwe why under tho
shining sun a man needed an education;
t any rate, more'n 'nough to reckon his
crops and cattle." , Jacob, the younger,
had once expressed a desire to attend
school out of town; but Storm, senior,
- killed his ambition in that respect with a
few words.
The inhabitants of Putneyville were
not all conservatives of the Storm order.
Sons of rich farmers were in college,
v daughters of bard-working fathers and
mothers, were away at school, and Put
neyville felt their influence when they
camo home for a vacation. One of the
gayest, brightest, prettest girls in town
was bailie Hirers. Her father had a
poorer farm and fewer bonds than his
neighbor Jacob Storm, but the Hirers
family worshipped another idol. From
tne mower down every one valued a
trood education. The father hod been
denied it, as he was the eldest of a large
family, and compelled to aid in suDnort-
ing the rest. He was a man of excellent
natural ability, and extravagantly fond
of reading.
The boys of the family were com celled
to work their vi ay through college, and
Haliie, the jovial, was determined to fol
low their example.
No wonder Jacob Storm, junior, loved
Sallie. He had lived near her for years,
had carried ber dinner pail back and
forth, for her, had purposely misspelled
words to let her pass above him, and in
all her maddest pranks, be had rejoiced
while others blamed. When one of the
neighbors gave a party, the verbal invi
tation was generally, "Bailie, and the
rest of the boy s.
Sallie liked it; she was full of bound
I uK iuii j sus uiuvu am v sun; auu as nnr
brothers were, with one exception, older
-m I than nersell, it was quite proper that
j she should do as they did. Jacob Storm
M had once called her "Will o'-tho-wisp,"
I and the name fitted her so well that the
I boys took it up. The wildest colt on the
farm would ouoy Sallie; she feared noth
ing, went and came as ahe pleased, and
did more work in one morning than her
mother and Huldah, the maid, could pos
sibly do together, ;
Naturally, this warm-hearted, active,
cheerful girl, was the light of her fath
er's eves. He could not send her away
from him, like the boys, not even for the
coveted education. For three years in
her teens she bore the restraint as meek
ly as possible; but the fourth year could
not be borne. How' much the girl had
suffered in secret, no one knew.
"Father," she said one day, as she
sprang from her saddle, "my mind is
made up. I shall go into the mill and
earn money enough to attend school."
"But mother -an't spare you, my
daughter." .
--"""""SlaUseis willing,", said Sallie; "she
always wanted to study, herself."
"Well, we seem to need yon here,
somehow," said the old gentleman, strok
ing the colt's neck to hide his feelings.
"Yes, father, and you shall havo. me.
I can work hard, and come home to spend
every vacation; and won't you be glad to
seeme?"
Mr. Rivers led the colt away, and did
not answer. i '
"Why not?" he said to himself ; "why
shouldn't she have a fair chance? I
suppose I might sell off the meadow to
old Storm, and send my only girl away
in good shape; but it will spoil the farm,
and I hate to." -
He could not think of the house with
out her; he dreadod the long winter
evenings, and the warm summer days,
' without his darling; and at last he sat
' down in one corner of the barn on an
old grindstone, which Sallie had often
turned for him. He sat there a long
time, trying to overcome his selfishness;
and at last, as he heard the girl's ringing
a voice calling him to supper, he rose up,
saying, ''"She's my only girl; and she
shall have a chance, come what will."
Tho boys were delighted. They were
proud of Sallie, and quite sure she would
do herself and the family credit. To be
sure, Tom's pride was hurt when ho heard
she was to work in the mill at Glenmere;
but the new house which Tom had urged
his father to build bad oost more than
they expected, and every year some new
"machinery must be purchased. It was
twenty miles to Glenmere twenty miles
,' from home love, care and comfort; but
Sallie did not falter. To be sure, it was
S trial to leave them all, A hard thing to
select from her little store of girl's be
longings; and a small room in a boarding-house
would never afford the delight
that ber own large, sunny chamber did.
Sallie felt a thousand tears, but did not
shed one, although her mother and Hul
dh wept profusely as the carriage drove
away, with Sallie a father on the back
seat with her, and Jacob Storm in front
with Bailie's brother Dike.
"I wish I had her chance," said Jacob.
as the father and daughter talked in low
tones on tire back seat. .
"Great chance,", said Dike, "to go
down there and work among all sorts,
and never have any music evenings, or
any home, or "
Dike paused; his scelings were too
much for hiin, and yet he would not let
Jake Storm see a tear in his eyes.
"It's a chance to make yourself some
thing better than a drudge, a chance to
see and know what is going on in the
great world. Beading is good. Dike
but seeing is a million times better.
Jacob read early and late, he thought
and studied; but after all, he knew that
the discipline which Tom and Joe Rivers
were having would be a great blessing to
him. His one dread was that Sallie
might consider him inferior to her.
"She shall not get before me if I die try
ing," he said.'
bailie's room was not so bad after all;
Mrs. Mora had done her boat to please
her old friend Mrs. Rivers. When
Sallie's books were unpacked, and her
piano was in -one corner, and her pot
bird. Glory hung up, the place was quite
delightful. ,.
A room-mate was impossible, as she
desred to spend all her spare moments
in preparation for her future work.
About this time she wrote to Tom : "It
is a hard grind, dear old boy; and some
times, when my bead whirls abont with
the noise, or the associations vex me, 1
feel like running away to China or Japan;
but I don't, I only go borne when I am
free, and take good dose of Chopin or
Beethoven; they tone me up. By care
ful management, I shall be able to save
' some money. There is a little French
girl hore, who ss anxious to study Eng
lish; every week I give her a lesson for a
. lesson ; I speak and read French with her;
then, two of Mrs, Mora's children take
lesVms on the piano, and my board bill
.. j Who do you think comes here
T? Why, Jacob Storm. His
'ei him go to college, and
here after work jsdjan 1
Saturday, and returns Sunday night. He
is a great friend of John Mora's, and I
have to be teased about him, but I don't
mind that Jake seems like one of you and
every week he questions me about my
lessons.
"Sometimes he brings a few flowers,
or some chiokweed tor Glory, sometimes
a piece of new cheese in a dainty box,
and generally a note or message from
mother or Dike. When he drives down.
Dike comes with him; and I can work
harder all the week after seeing his rosy
face.
"Jake gets books from the library
here, and leaves them for me to read
first; then we talk them over afterward,
and Dike is getting quite interested.
Brave little Sallie! The days and
weeks flew by, and found her at her post.
She only saw the hard daily toil, only
felt the bonds which kept her close until
she could join the girls who quietly and
easily walked the paths of knowledge.
She did not know that her example cave
Joe new courage, and kept Tom from
many a "college lark ;" she never dreamed
that Jacob Storm was making a man of
himself for her sake: she could not see
the power she exercised over Dike, who
was inclined to be a little wayward;
' she never guessed that her devotion to
self-culture and study had stimulated
some of her associates to ro and do like
wise. Her brief vacations were seasons
of joy. Jacob Storm wished tbey might
last forever. He, too, was hard at wo k;
and one day, when he and Sallie had
discussed the merits of various authors,
and compared notes concerning their
studies, Sallie's outburst of praise for
his achievements drew from mm an
avowal of his love.
"Why, Jacob," said sua regretfully,
I never thought of you in that way. I
should as soon fancy Tom marrying
mo."
"You think I am clumsy and slow,"
he said, "or perhaps stupid and ignor
ant, because I remain here whon others
go away; they havo educated themselves,
with fate and fortune to aid them. I
have done it thus far against fate, and
without fortune. I shall some day make
the world hear of me; how, when, or
where, I do not know, but it will come."
. "I believe you, Jacob," said Sallie,
"and I am proud of you; but love is
something I know nothing of, and until
I have finished my course as a student, I
must put pleasure of all kinds out of my
head. Don't sulk, Jacob; I am not
heartless, only ignorant. Come, saddle
Tarn O'Shanter, and let us have one of
our mad rides to Sparkling Spring; it
will be something to remember when I
am grinding at the mill again."
Jacob oboyed her. Her wishes had
been his law for years, and he was manly
enough to be proud of it. ,
At last the goal was won. Sallie was
in college, devoting herself to her oher-
lKbed books, and Jacob still worked as
he had done before, now blaming himself
for his folly in regarding his father's
wishes, now working at his books with
the desperate energy of one who has
staked all on success.
Every Sunday he visited Glenmere
with Dike, but no longer sjient his time
witn Sallie. At last a change came;
Jacob Storm, Sr., was gathered to his
fathers, and bis son was free.
Dike wrote to his sister in boyixh fash
ion : "Old Storm has gone, and Jake
mourns for him as if ho had been loving
and tender, instead of a stiff old miser.
Jake will leave here Boon: he docs not
say where he is going.
"I shall miss him terribly. We have
read and studied together all winter.
Jake knows a heap. He surprises me all
the time, lie is having your picture
painted for me, from the one you sent
home. I wisu i could go with him; but,
as you say, it would never do to leave
father and mother alone. I am reading
the books you ordered, but I can t pin
myself down to hard study after working
all day."
Sallie's last year of college life was
drawing near its close, and the students
were arranging for their separation, when
an invitation was sent them to attend a
lecture by an eminent gentleman who
had been recently appointed to a profes
sorship in a Western university.
"Going, Miss Rivers?" asked a senior.
as she peeped in at the half-open door of
bailie s room.
"No, I think not. I shall employ the
time in writing home.
"Do go. They tell mo Professor
Storm is quite remarkable, and Darwin
ism has its attractions for. all of us."
"Frofessor Storm was closeted with
the I'rex to-day," said another senior,
and I understand the light of his conn
tenance will illuminate the college to
morrow."
"I think I will go," said Sallie, sud
denly, "it will not do to misa such a
treat."
In her rebellious little heart she was
saying, "I will go for tho sake of the old
name and my cltildliood's friend, but
poor old Jake will never know any tiling
of it." '
The hall was crowded, sud on the plat
form sat the college 1'rcsnlMit, with sev
eral distinguished gentlemen. The
speaker's face was partly hidden by the
(less boiore him. When he rose, at last,
Sallie's heart gave a quick bound; for
there before her stood her neighbor,
friend and lover.
He did not seem to see her; his sub
ject engrossed his entire attention, Sal
lie listened with pleasure. The physical
training of the past added strength to
his mental acquirements, and his clear,
manly voice charmed all who listened to
him.
"Isn't he fine looking?" whispered
one. "What a splenkid type of man
hood I" said another. "He understands
himself perfectly, as well as his subject,"
said a third.
When the speaker closed, the applause
was emphatic and prolonged. Sallie sat
motionless. Surprise and pleasure
mingled with a thousand memories. Pro
fessor Storm did not heed it. He was
looking at a bright face just before him,
and answered the congratulations of his
friends in an absent manner.
"Pardon me," he said to the president;
"I recognize, an old schoolmate yon
der." "Ah, indeod! that is Miss Rivers, a
yeung lady of remarkable energy and
unbounded perseverance; she stands at
the head of her class."
"I'm so glad, so very glad," was all
Sallie could say.
"Are you? Then help me to escape
from all these eyes, and let me give you
the latest tidings from home."
Miss Rivers was envied by her friends
as she passed out, stopping now and then
to introduce tho popular scientist as an
old schoolmate.
Of what thoy talked, and how, it mat
ters not to ub; we only know that a cer
tain professor was absent irom his post
in order to utU'inl the exercises at a cer
tain college, where Miss Ki vers gradu
ated, and we also know that a wedding
took place soon after, and the bride's
toilett did not cost her weary days and
nights; for, like a wise woman she pur
chased it in New York, and enjoyed the
last precious days with her friends.
When the bridal party wont West, Dike
joined them, and is now fitting himself
for his future work in life.
Mrs. Stornv nee Sallie Rivers, is also
a professor in the some institution with
her husband; and her excellent parents
spend a portion of each season with her.
When any of the family joke Professor
Storm about his lovelike attentions to his
wife, he always answers, "I owe all my
prosperity to the fact that I have been
her life-long, ardent lover."

Discoveries Hade by Accident.
Valuable discoveries have been made,
and valuable inventions suggested, by
veriest accidents.
An alchemist, while seeking to dis
cover a mixture of earths that would
make the most durable crucibles, one
day found that he had actually made
porcelain.
The power of lenses, as applied to tho
telescope, was discovered by a watch
maker's apprentice. While holding
spectacle-glasses between his thumb and
finger, he was startled at the suddenly
enlarged apperance of a neighboring
church-spire.
, The art of etching upon glass was dis
covered by a Nuremburg glass cutter.
By accident, a few drops of aqua f ortis
fell upon his spectacles. He noticed
that the glass corroded and softened
when the acid had touched it. That
was hint enough. He drew figures upon
glass with varnish, applied the corroding
fluid, then cut away the glass around the
drawing. When uie varnisn was re
moved, the figures appeared raised upon
a dark ground.
Mezzotinto owed its invention to the
simple accident of 'the gun-barrel of a
sentry becoming rusted with dow.
i.he swaying to ana iro oi a cnanuciier
in a cathedral suggested to Galileo tho ;
application of the pendulum.
The art of lithographing was perfected
through suggestions made by accident.
A poor musician was curious to know
whether music could not be etched upon
stone as well as upon copper.
After he had prepared his slab, his
mother asked him to make a memoran
dum of such clothes as she proposed to
send away to be washed. Not having
pen, ink and paper convenient, he wrote
the list on the Btone with the etching
preparation, intending to make a copy of
it at leisure.
A few davs later, when abont to clean
the stone, he wondered what effect aqua
fortis would have upon it. He applied
the acid, and in a few minutes saw the
writing standing out in relief. The next
step necessary was simply to ink tho
stone and take off an impression.
The composition of which printing-rollers
are made, was discovered by a Sal
opian printer. Not being able to find the
pelt-ball, he inked the type with a piece
of soft glue which had fallen ont of the
glue-pot. It was such an excellent sub
stitute that, after mixing molasses with
the glue, to give the mass proper consist
ency, the old pelt-ball was entirely dis
carded. The shop of a London tobacconist, by
the name of Lnndyfoot, was destroyed by
fire. While gazing dolefully into the
smouldering rnins, he noticed that his
poorer neighbors were
gathering the
snuff from the cannisters. He tested the
snuff for himself, and discovered that the
fire had largely increased its pungency
and aroma.
He secured another shop, built a lot of
ovens, subjected the snuff to a heating
process, gave the brand a particular
name, and in a few years became rich
through an accident which he at first
thought had completely rained him.
The process of whitening sugar was
discovered in a curious way. A lieu that
had went through a clay puddle went
with her muddy feet into a sugar-house.
It was noticed that wherever her tracks
were the sugar was whitened. Experi
ments were instituted, and the result was
that wet clay came to be used in refining
sugar.
The origin of the blue-tinted paper
came about by a mere slip of the hand.
The wife of William East, an English
paper-maker, accidentally let a blue-bag
fall into one of the vats of pulp. The
workmen were astonished when they saw
the peculiar color of the paper, whilo
Mr. East was highly incensed over what
he considered a grave pecuniary loss.
His wife was so much frightened that she
would not confess her agency in the
matter.
After storing tho damaged paper for
four years, Mr. East sent it to his agent
at Jbondon, with instructions to sell it for
what it would bring. The paper was ac
cepted as a "purposed novelty," aud was
disposed of at quite an advance over mar
ket price.
Mr. East was astonished at receiving
an order from his agent for another large
invoice of the paper. He was without the
secret, and found himself in a dilemma.
Upon mentionining it to bis wife, she
told him about the accident. He kept
the secret, and the demand for the novel
tint exceeded his ability to supply it.
A Brighton stationer took, a fancy for
dressing his show-window, with piles of
writing paper, rising gradually from the
largest to the smallest size in use; and,
to finish his pyramid off nicely, ho cut
cards to bring them to a point.
Taking these cards for "diminutive
note-paper, lady customers were contin
ually wanting some of "that lovely little
paper," and the stationer found it ad
vantageous to cut paper to the desired
pattern.
As there was no space fcr addressing
the notelets after they were folded, he,
after much thought, invented the enve-
lono. whifih hn cut bv tha aid of metal
plates made for tho purpose.
The sale increased so rapidly that he
was unable to produce the envtlopes fust
enough, so he commissioned a dozeu
houses to make them for him, and thus
set going an important branch of tho
manufacturing stationery trade.
A Stranger's Mistakes.
A few days ago a Western merchant
who wanted to do some sight-seeing and
bny his fall stock at the same time, en
tered a dry goods jobbing house on
Broad ay, and accosted the first person
he met with, "Are you tho proprietor
here?" "Not exactly the proprietor,"
was the reply. "At present 1 am acting
as shipping clerk, but I am cutting my
cards for a partnership next year by or
ganizing noon prayer meetings in the
basement."
The stranger passed on to a very important-looking
personage with a dia
mond pin, and askod : "Are you the head
of the house ?"
"Well,' no; I can't say as I nm at pres
ent, but I have hopes of a partnership in
January. I'm only one of the travelers
just now, but I'm laying for a S?200 pew
in an up-town church, and that will
mean a quarter interest hero in less than
six months."
Tho next man had his feet up, his hat
1 ock and a 20-cent cigar in his mouth
and he looked so solid that the stranger
sjirt :
"You must run this establishment."
"Me ?" Well, I may run it very soon.
At present I'm the bookkeeper, but I'm
expecting to got into a church choir
with the old man's darling and become
an equal partner here."
The stranger was determined not to
make another mistake. He walked
around until he found a man with his
coat off and busy with a case of goods,
and he said to him :
"The porters are kept pretty busy in
here, I see."
"Yes," was the brief reply.
"But I suppose you are planning to
invent a Gospel hymn book and sing the
old man out of au eighth interest, aren't
you?" '
"Well, no, not exactly," was the quiet
reply. "I'm the old man himself."
And all that the stranger said, after a
long minute spent in looking the mer
chant over, was : "Well, durn my but

If there is one pursuit which above all
others is so peaceful in its nature as not
to call for the services of armed men, it
is the climbing of a tree for the purpose
of gathering chestnuts. Hardly any two
things can be more thoroughly incom
patible than nuts and pistols. The club
which is a weapon altogether different in
its character and its aims from the pistol,
has a sort of relation to the business of
gathering chestnuts. But the club is
used not so much by the boy who climbs
the chestnut tree as by the one who
stands on the ground and awaits the
fall of the nuts. To fling a club up
among the branches of a chestnut tree
sometimes has the effect of bring
ing chestnuts down. More often
the effect is not felt on the chest
nuts, but rather on the head of the boy
who sends the club up. When in its
descent it stuns him by a blow on the
skull or sets the blood flowing from his
cruelly bumped nose, the boy mutters a
quotation from that old proverb which is
to the effect that whatever goes up is sure
to come down. The club is as clumsy a
weapon as it is antiquated. Clubs can
not be carried in hip-pockets with any
great degree of convenience. According
to the pictures in the Sunday school
books, Cain slew Abel with a club. But
the pictures do not represent Cain as
drawing the weapon from his hip-pocket.
Even New York policemen do not carry
clubs in their hip-pockets, but hold them
in their hands ready for instant service.
The hip-pocket is a fashionable neces
sity, and no clothier is up to the de
mands of the age who makes trousers
without it. All classes and conditions of
masculine society must wear this pocket.
The octogenarian grandfather, the peace
ful clergyman, the scholarly professor,
the boisterous politician, the growing
youth and the little boy in his first trou
sers, must alike havo a hip-pocket.
While there are many purposes for
which a pocket of this kind is exceed
ingly convenient, there is no denying the
fact that it was originally invented by
some war-like person as a handy place
! for carrying a pistol. Although there
are many wearers of this kind of pocket
who carry no pistols, yet there are many,
especially young men, who think the
pistol quito as much of a necessity as
the pocket. Therefore, they seldom go
unarmed. Tho pistol is at much at
home in their hip-pocket as eye-glasses
are on the noses of near-sighted
men, or - bangs on the foreheads
of pretty girls. The young men
who thus stuff pistols into their
i pockets are not bloodthirsty follows.

' Most of them are poor shots in pistol
practice and could not with the most
approved form of modern weapon hit a
cat across the street. They have no
definite idea that ruffians will attack
them with a view to taking their lives,
nor have they positively come to the
conclusion as to what they would do in
! the event of any such attack being made.
They think they would bravely stand
I their ground and discharge from four to
i six balls into tho vitals of the intruding
! rufliun. The probability is that they
would run away.
A day or two ago the youthful son of a
New York capitalist inflicted on himself
a needless and dangerous woaud. He
had gone up a tree to gather chestnuts.
He fell, and in his fall discharged the
pistol which happened to be in his hip
pocket and which he had taken up the
tree with him. At first it was reported
that he was dead, and for some time it
seemed probable that he would die. Had
he died his life would have been sacri
ficed to a foolish and unnecessary prac
tice. If he lives he will carry with him
the indelible mark of his folly. Had thero
j been a bear up the chestnut tree or a
I squad of hostile Indians concealed
among tho branches the pistol might
: have lieen a necessary instrument of self-
defense instead of being one of self-tor-
' ture. There are thousands of lads all
ovor the country who carry pistols just
tut this unwise youth did. They go
armed to school, to the store, to seo their
girls, to walk on the streets and to en
gage in the various duties and pleasures
of life. When they have nothing else to
do they pull out the pistol to see if it
needs cleaning or to bo sure that the
trigger works properly. Then they
point the weapon at their little brother
or sister, purely as a bit of the
most hilarious fun. When the
inevitable bullet crashes through
brother or sister, and a bleeding little
corpse lies on the floor, there are tears
and remorse and exclamations of "didn't
know it was loaded," and all that. The
carrying of a concealed pistol is by law
an offense against the public peace. It
is a great pity that the law is almost a
dead letter. Especially about election
times it is bad to carry pistols. The
angry passions may rise and shots may
be fired with disastrous effect. There is
not one case in ten thousand where a
man who carries a pistol has reasonable
need to use it. As for the boys, they
havo no more need to carry pistols about

USEFUL RECIPES.
A Luncheon Dish. Beat two eggs,
mixing with them a tablespoonful of
cream. Put them into a saucepan, add
ing some anchovies and some minced
tongue. Spread on toast and serve im
mediately. Crow's Nest. Fill a deep pudding tin,
or dish, with apples cut in thin slices;
sugar and cinnamon, or lemon, to
sweeten and flavor to taste, and a little
water; coyer with a thick crust made as
above; bake until apples are tender;
serve hot with hard sauce, or with cream
and sugar; be sure to cut air holes in the
crust to let the steam escape.
Oyster Toast. This is a nice little dish
for luncheon or a lato supper. Scald a
quart of oysters in their own liquor,
take them out and pound in a mortar,
when they form a paste, add a little rich
cream and some pepper. Get ready
some thin, neat pieces of toast moistened
slightly with boiling water and spread
with lresh butter. Spread the oyster
paste thickly upon tho toast, put a thinly
cut round of lemon upon each piece, and
arrange them on a platter garnished with
parsley. Serve very hot.
Gingerbread. Before the buckwheat
season fairly begins, fresh gingerbread
is nice with coffee for breakfast; it is
convenient to moke it sometimes when
you haven't bread onough for breakfast
and dinner both. A simple way of
making it is to take one teaenpful of mo
lasses, four tablespoonfuls of hot butter
or lard, stir in as much flour as you can,
then put iu a tcaspoonf ul of saleratns, a
heaping one of ginger, in a teacup and
fill the cup almost full of boiling water;
beat this ink the dough a little at a time.
A Line of Change of Date. In pass
ing around tho earth a day is lost or
gained, as the course may be west or
CTtst. Thus, if one goes west, with
the sun, wheu he has gono completely
around the earth he has overtaken the
sun, so to speak, but in reality he has
neutralizad tho motion of the earth in
its revolution from west to east as much
as is equivalent to a whole day or one
revolution, and it is the same in effect as
though the earth hod been motionless
for one wholo day and the sun had not ap
peared to move. In this way. the
traveler would arrive at his starting
place a day sooner than would apcar to
bo right by his reckoning. And the
contrary would happen if he went east,
for he would have one more sunrise and
one more sunset than if he hod staid at
home. This will be apparent if ono can
imagine himself going east as fast as tho
earth revolves. He will clearly make
two revolutions in space, and would pass
the sun twice in twenty-four hours. In
going west the sun would appear station
ary, because the man mosmn fast an
the earth, would neutral

The floors are covered with rich brussels carpet,

birdseye maple polished as highly as a mirror. The
front upper ortiou hss double doors of plate glass,
while above, heavy carvings give to that portion ex
quisite finish of superior design and workmanship.
The lower portion has double panel doors, heavily
carved and mounted with silver trapping. Next
come an ingenious scrctsry with circular sibling

are moat conveniently arranged. As soon as the
cover is raised the writing desk cau le drawn out so
as to give ample room. iJirectly below are foidiug

flowered iu Japanese maze squares, trimmed
with wine colored satin upon an Kgypttau
frame and is the favorite piece of furniture
with the ladies, who are the best Judges of
these magnificent articles. In the- next booth we
find a superb bedroom set of modern and unique
pattern, ornamented with elwny panels aud massive
carvinK of black walnut. The bureau consists of a
main body of throe drawers, with silver ids ted han

This is surmounted by a fine slab of Tennessee

of the bedroom set. A patent rocker, upholstered in
maroon and old gold trimmed with wine colored
satin occupies a conspicuous place in one corner of
the booth, and receivesltashare of admiration. Aside
from this the company exhibit several articles be
longing to and the work of private parties, of which
we will mention a beautiful patent rocker and foot
rest, upholstered in black satin upon which peacock
feathers had been worked with the needle by Miss
Rtephens; an embroidered ottoman, representing
rusty wheat npon a black satin background, the
work of Misa A. Stork; an ottoman upholstered in

upholstering work was done by Marxy Oallick who
learned his trade in the shop of the company. An
ottoman representing "Contented Pussy," in raised
embroidery by Mrs. Harry 0. Bredin. Other articles
of IcHaer importance go toward giving a finish to the
magnificent display. We have thus given a very
brief description of the origin of the Oregon Furni
ture Manufacturing Company and the progress it
has made during these years in order to show what
enterprise and energy combined will do. It started
in on a email scale and gradually expanded and add
ed to until to-day it stands a monument of pride
