Good work I mtorantOOfi I Let some member of the family read this story aloud, -while with the dictionary, a late edition of either Worceste'r or Webster, and any other good helper to the study of language, the others criticise and correct or confirm the reader's pronunciation. There are 225 words here which ara frequently mispronounced. Geoffrey, surnamed Winthrop, sat in the depotat Chicago, waitingforhis train and nadinp the Tribune, when a squadron of street Arabs (incom parable for squalor) thronged from a nfifThhorin? allev. uttering hideous cries, accompanied by inimitable gestures of heinous exultation, as they tortured a humble black and tan dog. "You little blackguards I" cried Winthrop, stepping outside and con fronting them, adding tho inquiry, "Whose dog is that?" "That audacious Caucasian has tho bravado to interfere with our clique," tauntingly shrieked tho indisputable little ruffian, exhibiting combattve ness. "What will yon takfl for him?" asked the lenient Geoffrey, ignoring tho venial tirade. "Twenty-seven cents," piquantly answereu tuermaio. urcnm, graoDing the crouching dog by the nape. "You can buy licorice and share with the indecorous coadjutors of your condemnable cruelty," said Winthrop, paying the price and tak ing the dog from the child. Then catching up his valise and umbrella, lie hastened to his train. Winthrop satisfied himself that this sleek pro tege was not wounded, and then cleaned tho cement from the pretty collar, and read these words : "Leicester. Licensed, No. 1880." TToorincr tliA Tmniinfintion of hlH name, the docile canine expressed gratitude and pleasure.'and then sank exhausted at his new patron's feet and slept. Among the other passengers was a magazine cuiunuuiur, niiuug ajj ries of Indian literature, also two physicians, a somber, irrevocable, irrefragable allopathist, and a genial homeopathist, who made a specialty of bronchitis. Two peremptory at torneys from the legislature of Iowa were discussing the politics of the epoch and the details of national finance, while a wan, dolorous per son, wearing concave glasses, alter nately ate trorhes and almonds for a KPriativa. and Rnnuht condolence in a hfgh, lamentable treble from a lethargic and somewhat deaf and enervate comrade not yet acclimated. Near three exemplary brethren (probably sinecurists) eat a group of humorous youths ; and a jocose sailor (lately from Asia) in a blouse waist and tarpaulin hat was amusing his patriotic juvenile listeners by relat ing a series of the most extraordi nary lezends oxtant, suggested by the contents of the knapsack, which lie was calmly and leisurely arrang ing in a pyramidal form on a three legged stool. Above swung figured placards witn museum ana lyceum advertisements, too verbose to be misconstrued. A mature matron of medium height and her comely daughter soon en tered the car, and took se.ts in front of Winthrop (who recalled having seen them one Tuesday in February, in the parquet of a theater). The young lady had recently made her debut into society at a musical soiree at her aunt's. She had an exquisite bouquet of flowers that exhaled sweet perfume. She said to her par ent. "Mamma, shall we ever find my lost Leicester?" Geoffrey immedfately addressed her, saying, as he presented his card : "Pnlnn mv nnnarent intrusive- ness;' but, prithee, have you lost a pet dog?" The explanation that he had been stolen was scarcely necessary, for Leicester, jtt9t awakening, vehe mently expressed his iuoxplicable joy by buoyantly vibrating between the two like the sounding lever used in telegraphy 6"or to neither of them would he'show partiality), till, suc cumbing to ennui, he purported lo take a recess, and sat on his haunches, complaisantly contem plating his friends. It was truly an interesting piciuro. They reached their destination ere tho sun was beneath the horizon. Often during the summer, Winthrop gallantly rowed from the quay with tho naive and blithe Beatrice in her jaunty yachting suit, but no coquetry shone from the depths of her azure eyes. Little Less, their jocund confidente and courier (and who was as sagacious as a spaniel), always attended them on these oc casions, and whene'er they rambled through the woodland paths. While tho band played strains from Bee thoven, Mendeissonn, Jtiacti, ana others, they promenaded the long corridors of the hotel. And ono or-Anintr. as Beatrice lighted the pas by the etagere in her charming boudoir in their suite of rooms, there glistened brilliantly a valuable soli taire diamond on her finger. Let us look into the future for the sequel to perfect this romance, and around a cheerful hearth we see again Geoffrey and Beatrice, who are paying due homage to their tiny friend, Leicester. Toledo Blade. Cannibalism is still practiced by 1,250,000 people, and it is very evi dent that the demand lormiutonanea Mexican feather-work ia used on dinner cards. Protty chocolate sets haye teak wood handles. Water jugs are a special feature of the dinner table, just now, and should be in glass. Wedge wood designs in. tableware are again popular and in much de mand in this country. Russian cut glass glitters and sparkles in all manner of dishes, baskets, and flower vases. This style shows the hob nail and perfect diamond design. Though tulips are the "popular" dinner flower, small ferns in pure whifo vftqpn ara much used bv ladies who affect the pure and simple in their decorations. Dainty gold salt cellars are in the shape of the four-leaved shamrock, and the littlo gold spoons accompa nying them have shamrocks enam eled in color on them. Bread is sliced very thin and placed in a serviette (napkin) and a white satin ribbon placed around it, a small spray of ferns and small white flowers being laid upon the table. Fineer bowls are used at the most modest table. It is a whim of fash ion that the latter should, be filled two-thirds with water, and a handful of sweet Parma violets submerged in it. Pitchers of cut-glass, in classic shapes, are used for water and wine ; claret jugs are seen in the same ware vrUh lpf prnration about the neck and base ; these are tall, narrow, and oval. Tho fancy, bright-colored scarfs onco used and much ornamented on dinner tables, have been discarded for those of dark-hued plush, undec orated, but with heavy fringe at the ends. Tim nwfc rihirm HetS all include the chocolate pot as s necessary arti cle of table use for luncheon. The more costly tea services do not, as owners aro supposed to have silver ones. ' Ices are served in little paper cups surrounded by the paper petals of a rose or tulip or other large blossom. x)isquik yiacu iuiu chic pjuiuiw am mc favorite fashionable ices for serving in this manner. Roman punch is now made tempt ing by being served in cups of ice. So perfect are these frozen cups that one is sometimes deceived hy the in nocent fraud until one's "fingers get nipped by touching them. The figures on table linen are mostly geometrical, following the lead of wall papers and general household adorning. Floral designs are not altogether displaced, and nu merous beautiful designs of these are shown. When fruit is served, either before breakfast or at the table, a napkin being placed oh the plate, beneath It-- t I.- - ..nr UnU nun fknf IUQ lruil, I gucai. ouuiuu uso turn. fruit napkin, after eating the fruit, although he may be served with an other at the table. Cut glass is distinguishable from carved, etcneu, or engravea giass, Dy the patterns being more geometrical in design, generally consisting of prisma of facet3 of four, Bix, or eight side?; or of lines that are quite straight, like radiations, but which do not form prisms. Very handsome, and somewhat costly tea sets come in fifty-two piece AArvinpR In "Bodlev. Mmton. fld Royal Worcester" from $50 to $100.' These have neither chocolate nor J coffeepot, noside dishes, cream mug or butter dish, as the latter should' be of silver with such a set. ' IVotor and ivftvivliko dp.qipnH are in demand for silver dinner sets just now. A water god rising from the" midst of undulating waves makes a handsome design. The spoons should be in the shape of, or decorated with,, shells of different shapes, with; twisted or coiled handles. The glass used on even very elab orate and expensive tables is more of the inexpensive "Pantrio" make' than real "cut." The craze for the ancient or "antique" in, all our pleas ures and possessions can hardly ex tend to glass. Few specimens of real cut glass remain-in vases or vessels having any right to be termed ancient. The correct form is to set lunch tables without cloths, but this, of course, necessitates a handsome, )olished table top. Those who pre er to have something upon the board use in the center a satin or damask cloth one yard square, heav ily fringed. Upon this are arranged fruits, flowers, etc., while the plateB and glasses are placed upon the out side polished border. Tk JL a Yankee!
