Still, artists’ maxims about the dis posal of pictures may help housewives who know something is the matter with their wall furnishings but cannot tell what.

Place oil paintings so that the light will fall upon them obliquely, if you would show them to advantage. It does not hurt oil or water color paintings to go unframed, though the latter look best because they have mounts or mats. One of the most pleas ing effects I have ever noticed is the sight of a water color sea view, a study in pale green and foamy white, mounted on cardboard and—because the owner could not afford a frame—set on an easel above a large picture and draped on three sides with the carelessly graceful folds of a faint green silk scarf, the orna ment of the easel's top. If one cannot afford a frame for any picture, whether neutral tinted or colored, one can almost always afford a simple mat, which will answer the purpose for easel mounting. During exhibitions at some galleries and stores the water colore are shown simply placed behind mats and put in slanting cases. A colored picture is generally framed in good taste if given a suitable mat with a narrow gilt frame. Silk frames are sometimes used for them, also for black and white effects. They are made FOR ORDINARY OCCASIONS, by arranging soft folds of any plain rows of scarlet velvet ribbon.

Should Help One Another. [Copyright, 1891, by American Press Associa tion.] The modern changes in the ways of women have opened to them a heretofore unsuspected delight, which gives fresh attractions to both work and play—the pleasure of social life among themselves. So greatly indeed have customs modi fied within a few years that I think it Is safe to say at the present moment that women’s most heartily enjoyed social gatherings are with one another. Thia is quite as it should be too. We know that onr brothers like best some times to be without us; it is exceedingly desirable that we should do the same. The charm of being together is bright ened by each sex having its own separate good times, and the self respect result ing from independence—even in the matter of social intercourse—is a quality well worth cultivating. Moreover, is it not something to live down one more of the old taunts wont to be flung at ue that we can never enjoy ourselves alone: In no way that I have seen do women of the cities have better times than in their daylight gatherings, at hours when, as a rule, every man is ab sorbed in study, office or place of busi ness. The 5 o’clock tea, with its fra grant and cheering cup, its pleasing ef fect of lovely rooms, soft lights, fresh flowers and tea gowns, which are in themselves pictures, is an occasion alto gether delightful and eminently woman ly. The reception also, with its con stant succession of guests for two or three hours, where one may meet her friends and enjoy all the pleasure with none of the fatigue and stupidity of a round of calls, is of the same order. Most delightful, however, of the mod ern woman’s paths of pleasantness io that known as the “ladies’ luncheon.” The person who has never taken part in one of those delectable entertainments .does not suspect what she has missed, neither can she imagine the good times a party of ladies have over so matter of fact a thing as a luncheon. Nor does its fascination depend upon its size. It may be a private affair, with no more than six guests, or—with equal satisfac tion—it may be a woman's club luncheon with 300. It is sure in either case to be lively, sparkling with brilliant speech and witty repartee. It is sure likewise to present an attractive picture, with dainty dress, beautiful tables and lavish flowers. It is more homogeneous than a mixed assembly. In fact, there is an enthusiasm, a sympathy and magnetism about a woman's gathering that makes it truly inspiring. If an entertainment of this sort is large all sorts of tastes may enjoy it; but if it is a small party, in a private house, the company should be carefully selected, for the conversation will be general, and what would please literary and artistic persons would bore those who care only for society, and vice versa. The choicest company is one composed of women of congenial tastes. For ex ample, at a luncheon in New York last winter every guest was a writer, either editor, magazine contributor, author or journalist of high rank. All were at home in the world of letters, all appre ciated the same points and had some thing to say on them. Their wits were keen and bright from constant use, and I doubt if any one present on that felici tous occasion ever spent a more enjoyable afternoon. At another private luncheon in the same season the guests were composed of the editors and contributors of a cer tain publication. They indulged in the luxury of “talking shop” to their hearts’ content, for “shop” was a matter of vital interest to all of them and there was no uninterested person to be bored by it. The favors and decorations were delight fully “shoppy,” and even the ice cream took the form of dainty booklets with an appropriate qnotation across the open pages. That was another altogether in imitable affair. The changed ways that have been con sidered aro but steps toward the grand portal which now looms up before us. Beyond this portal, if we have but the courage to enter, many thinkers believe we shall find the solution of our more serious domestic problems. The word over that promising door way is co-operation, and the sooner we learn to work well and harmoniously to gether, the sooner we learn self reliance and self respect, the sooner we recog: nize that woman—and she alone—can settle woman's problems, the more speedily shall we be ready to adopt that as our watchword, and try honestly and fairly to see if the “universal sisterhood” be not as potent to advance us heaven ward as the “universal brotherhood” is to advance the race. The former, indeed, is a part and an indispensable part of the latter, and little do we realizo the importance of our work in the matter. Man may do and die in the effort, but—believe it or not, as he may choose—ho cannot ad vance far nntil woman keeps step with him, and woman alone can train herself to walk beside her brother in the grand march of the race. This is a truth we shall do well to ponder. Everything is helping us—clnlis, associations, leagues, societies and all the rest, are training and developing us with wonderful ra pidity. Our domestic problems! How small they will appear when we shall have passed that portal and looked back upon them! Says Emerson: FOR FULL DRESS, A Young Woman Editor. ■ The Edgeiy (N. D.) Mail is now under the management of a twenty-year-old yonng woman, Miss Vinnie Hall, whe acts as publisher, editor and compositor. She went from St. Paul to Dakota in 1883, attending the high school at Ellendale for two years. She wanted to be a news- Hither wo bring Our insect miseries to thy rocks; And the whole flight, with folded wing. Vanish and end their murmuring. Thus will it be when we take into our hearts that divine word “love,” which is the foundation rock of co-operation, as of every other truly good thing. We lunst love our fellows, and we should begin by loving the woman next to ns, hot with the narrow love that poets sing and novelists picture, but with that broader love which is charity, which shows itself in respect for others, in tol eration and in justice. I do not mean that we should take the woman next to us—our servant probal ly—for a bosom friend or a daily companion,but we should recognize her sisterhood, respect her in dividuality and endeavor to give her, as well as ourselves, a pleasant and happy life. That is the beginning, and that also, dear sisters, is the end. When we have learned that we have learned all. And how is this co-operation to be ac complished? Many have been the sug gestions, numerous the books written. 1 do not propose to enter into an analysis or comparison of them. It may be tried on a small 6cale by any half dozen house keepers, without much "machinery,” and gradually worked up to greatei things with never notable results.

The recent discussion as to whether ocean liners should carry cotton as well as pas sengers, and at the same time, has brought out another fact. It is that they carry other kinds of freight that make the danger of fire just as great as from cotton. A per son who knows something of such matters states that just at present there are being made large importations of French silk that are especially dangerous as freight. “At present importers here,” the gentle man said, “are receiving large consign ments of a heavy dyed silk known as French twist. The French manufacturers do not spare the dye on these goods, for it adds to their weight. In this dye chemi cals of a peculiar kind are used, and it is this fact that makes this silk dangerous freight. “There is always fear of spontaneous combustion unless the greatest care Is taken iu packing the goods. These come in bales of various sizes, but generally aver aging about 500 pounds. They are wrapped in cotton bagging, with underlaying lay ers of straw and brown paper, and are made compact by hydraulic pressure, There is constant danger of fire origi- nating from them, and they must be watched with care while in transit. There have been cases where bales have been de stroyed from the causes mentioned, and not many years ago a serious fire was caused on a French steamship by these same goods.” Steamship men generally say that they are aware ot the danger of carrying these silks, and that the greatest care is taken whenever they are carried as freight. One or two lines, indeed, discriminate against this freight and will not carry it.—New York Recorder. Medicines in Coal. “It may fairly be said that most of the new medicines produced are products of coal tar,” said a physician. “Until lately remedies freshly added to the pharma copeia were obtained through novel dis coveries in the plant kingdom. Even now from time to time such lucky finds are made; but the science of botany has pretty nearly completed its list of things vegetable that grow upon the earth, and the prop erties of their active principles have become more and more thoroughly understood of late years. Thus it happens that new medicines today are nearly all products of the laboratory. “In coal tar is found a simple organic substance which is readily worked with for the production of varied chemical re sults. It is what chemists call a carbo hydrate, of an unelabornXe character, which renders itself readily useful in laboratory processes. Therefore, workers In the line of therapeutic research employ it to an al most unlimited extent. Of the new reme dies which the apothecary keeps upon his advertising slate aemajority are such coal tar products. Many of them are of a dangerous char acter and should not be taken without a physician’s prescription; but that does not prevent them from having a large sale, and the firms which get them out under patented names make fortunes by selling them.

THE HANGING OF PICTURES. Some Lore That Will Be of Interest to Women.

Perfumed ointments, however, were considered an indispensable requisite of every civilized household, though they have now gone as strangely out of fashion as the incense of the Medi terranean nations. The Greeks and Romans used a special ointment, often mixed with mineral dyes, for the hair and another for purposes of general inunction, and, after returning from a journey, even travelers of moderate means took a bath, followed by an all-over rubbing down with vegetable oils. Black hair dyes were prized by the towbeaded Visigoths, while the Roman ladies coveted the golden locks of the transalpine bar barians.—Felix Oswald in Philadelphia Times.

He. tethered his horse, cooked his supper, and was squatted by the fire smoking the in evitable cigarette when a mad coyote sprang upon him from the dark. The little beast, with every hair standing on end and his jaws dropping foam, struck him full in the face and fastened its teeth in his nose. The animal bore Alaniz back ward and he sprawled at full length. He endeavored to defend himself with his hands, but to no avail. The coyote snap ped his tcctli through the skin in a half dozen places, and the face of the man was covered with blood. As he struggled to his feet, frenzied with terror, his assailant disappeared. The ranchman reached Rio Grande City the next morning and was treated, but is extremely prostrated, and will probably die of hydrophobia.

The Atmosphere and Mainsprings. “Your mainspring is broke,” was the positive declaration of a jeweler to a young man as he entered and walked up to the counter, meanwhile probing for his watch. The yonng man hadn’t said a word, so It is easy to imagine that he was astonished at having the cause of his being there thus promptly and positively foretold. “How did you guess It f” he asked when he recovered from his amazement “Didn’t guess it; I knew it,” was the jeweler’s re ply—“that is, I could almost have sworn to it when I saw you feeling for your watch. I guessed then that something was the matter with that article, and hav ing guessed that I was ready to bet twen ty-five dollars to one dollar that it was the mainspring that was broke, and I’ll tell you why: There’s a certain time of the year when if I have two or three persons come to me with broken mainsprings I can make up my mind that I’ll have twenty or thirty more of the same kind of custom ers within a very short time. “Now, It’s just a week and a day ago that a man camo to have a job of this kind done, and up to today I’ve had no less than twenty mainsprings to put in.

The Supply of W halebone. About 200,000 pounds of whalebone were secured from the Atlantic catch of whales during 1890, and less than that amount was secured from the P.xiific waters. Fine whalebone is worth its weight in silver, and only the wealthy woman can afford to use it. The ordinary principles cf produc tion and trade arc overturned as regards whalebone. Modern appliances and im provements appear to have decreased rather than to have enlarged the amount of the product. The price of whalebone fluctuates worse than the stock market, owing to the fact that it is impossible to calculate upon the amount of a season’s catch until the bone has actually’ been extracted. There are only seven manufacturers in this country, according to the latest report —five in New York and two in Boston.

The “Alta,” like many other pioneers of’49,has succumbed to the inevitable and gone over to the great majority, and, like other pioneers, has been succeeded by younger generations. <The “Examiner” has taken perhaps the most prominent place in the newspaper field of late years, and its Weekly edition is very generally taken by those who want an interesting and reliable paper published at “ The Bay.” Everyone is familiar with the Premium Offers made by Mr. Hearst, the “Examiner’s” enterprising publisher, and it is only necessary to say that this year the aggregate value of the premiums—of which there are 5,000— is $135,000, which are distributed among all the subscribers to the paper. In addition to these pre miums, which range in value from 50 cents to $7,500, every subscriber receives one of the four great premium pictures, which will be mailed to him in a tube direct from the “ Examiner” office as soon as the subscription is received: " Tie Retreat from Moscow," by Melssoilcr.
