overtaken, and there is sure to be ir­
ritation and perhaps'bad temper be­
fore the day is over.
Second. — The method that is
adopted for the work of a household
denotes at once tfie capacity and
training of the head.
Woe betide that household where
the maids’ duties are not clearly de­
fined! Alas for the mistress whose
maids fail in order and method!
The routine of well arranged and
regular work saves enormously the
brain wear and tear which is inev­
itable with such detailed work as
this.
The time saved daily is also con­
siderable. Imagine the waste of
time and confusion in a school
where the head oidy arranged the
work classes day by day !
Third.—A place for everything
and everything in its place. It is a
wise old saying and intensely practi­
cal. How smoothly the work would
run if every one in the house would
bear the old adage in mind!

The swinging seat chain ham­
mocks are shown this spring in
much greater assortment than for­
merly. The enormous affairs as big
as Hatch settees, with heavy frutnus
und altogether too massive for the
average piazza or, indeed, the aver­
age lawn, have been not superseded,
but added to in a number of varie­
ties. Some of these are in bamboo,
others in wicker, others of light
frames with rush eeuts, all to be
piled with pillows, and are very at­
tractive. Some small alfairs for
children’s use are daintily finished
in white und gold.
How to Mako S and T a rta .
Heat to a creum a cupful of butter
with two cupfuls of sugar. Heat
separately the yolks and whites of
three eggs and add to the butter,
adding also a tcaspoonful of vanilla
for flavoring. Stir in lightly enough
flour to make the mixture stiff
enough to roll out thin. Cut it into
squares or diamonds und pluce them
iu floured pans after brushing the
top« with the white of egg. Sprin­
kle with granulated sugar mixed
with ground cinnamon. Place a nut
in the center and bake in a moder­
ate oven uutil of a light brown color.

With nil her triumph? there is one
crumpled rose leaf in Mme. Bem-
hardt’g eoueh. The French govern­
ment hag never accorded her the of­
ficial recognition ttiut was bestowed
on the late Kosa Bonheur and a few
other famous Frenchwomen — she
lias never been given the cross of
the Legion of Honor.
A determined effort was made to
secure the cross for her some five
years ago. A magnificent fete was
organized in her honor. Perform­
ances of the third act of “Pliedre”
and the fourth act of “Rome Vain-
cuc” were given at the Renaissance.
This was followed by a luncheon for
500 actors, litterateurs, artists, poli­
ticians—all those who go to make
up “tout Paris,” in fact—at the
conclusion of which poems in her
honor were fead by Francois Cop-
pee, Edmond Rostand, Andre Theu-
l'iet and Catullc Mendes, and the
fete came to an end with the corona­
tion of Mme. Bernhardt as queen of
the drama.
The ministry were then besought
to grant the coveted decoration.
But for once the ministry were cha­
ry of dispensing the favor. Whetlrer
it was that they thought her un­
worthy of the honor or that the
proper influence had not been
brought to bear, Mme. Bernhardt’s
name has never coine out in the
lists, and she is still without the
right to display the “splash of red”
that means so much in France.—

This concentration of interests in
a room is by no means an unworthy
study. Many rooms are spoiled
without it. It has been successfully
accomplished in a purlor overlook­
ing a aqua re. One side of this room
is taken up with a large bay window.
The other side, ut right angles to it,
is taken up by the fireplace sunk in
a recess and so carrying out the line
of the window. The study of the
mistress has been to make two cen­
ters to her room, one around the
window, which is ulwuys charming
by day, and due uround the fireplace
for the night. Her taM», 'herefore,
with its writing i„aterials and its
reading lumps, has been placed in
front of the fireplace, with two easy
chairs before it, where she and her
husband can read when the logs are
lighted. On the left of the table
there is a sofa facing the window
with its pretty view, while grouped
before it are more chairs. Here she
takes her afternoon tea.—Harper’s
Bazar.

Census Director Merriam has re­
cently employed the most successful
scheme for ascertaining who are
really the good clerks in any branch
of the, goernment service. The
duty devolved upon him of getting
rid of some of his superfluous
clerks. The usual way for ascer­
taining the ones to be dismissed is
to ask tiie plain question. But Mer­
riam did it tiie other way. He asked
which of the clerks each division
chief wished to keep. Each chief,
with an eye single to having his
work well done, made out a straight
list. No droners were included in
it. The chiefs thought they would
he allowed to retain these clerks.
Instead of that the director ordered
the transfer of these good clerks to
divisions in which there are to be
no dismissals at present. Now the
chiefs who were caught by the trick
are wondering how they are to fin­
ish the work they have on hand with
the inferior clerks that are left.—

The liveliest and — the English
people think—the prettiest princess
in Europe is Princess Maud, the
I Duke of York’s unmarried sister.
She cannot only bind books nnd
nurse a sick patient scientifically,
but also sail a half rater, ride a bi­
cycle and let go the handle bar with­
out falling olf, spin as well as sew,
play chess and speak five languages,
including Russian. She vies with
her mother, Queen Alexandra, in be­
ing an expert photographer, and she
is tbe queen’s favorite daughter.

Senator Mason leaned against the
weather map in the marble room of
the senate one day and wiped oif
half the weather report for the
United States at one swoop. The
weather man saw what happened
and began to jump about wildly.
“What's the mutter?” asked Sen-
■ ator Mason.
“Nothing,” replied the weather
man, “except that you have the cli­
mate for all of the United States
west of the Mississippi on the back
of vour rout ”

In a drug store not many hundred
yards from the capitol is employed
a clerk who has been just three
weeks learning how to mix soda in
anticipation of the summer rush of
business in that particular line. He
is an apt student of tilings pertain­
ing to tiie drug business, and, ac­
cording to his employer, he does
just as he is told. His employer told
him when he came to work that if
anybody ever asked for anything
that he didn't keep he was to say,
“We’re just out of ----- , but we
have something just as good.” Tiie
young man caught on exactly. Tiie
oilier afternoon a young woman en­
tered the store and inquired of the
new clerk:
“ Have you any postage stamps?”
“ No, ma’am; we’re just out of
postage stamps, but we have some­
thing just ns good.”—Albany Jour-
