' FURNITURE IN A NUT. The Most Unique Set of Working Mod els In the World. O. M. Shields, of Leeds, has made what Is undoubtedly the most unique set ''of working models in the world. These wonderful miniatures, .which are fashioned in silver and gold, are made to work and have been produced after years of patient labor . That th modal have attracted more tnan ordinary attention may be sraua-ed from the fact that notjnany months ago the, owner exhibited them before the King and a distinguished party. at Sandringham The late Queen Victoria was also much interested In the models. Tney were exhibited, at her especial de. sire, at indsor Castle.' ? f r . :. inere are twenty-alx different aeta. many of these sts containing a doxen or more separate pieces. As already staiea. tney are wrought in either gold or silver, and wonderful as it mar Seem ara atl made' by hand without casting or am oi glass. There is a miniature locomotive containing 220 pieces. Al though it is sa small that you can place it in the palm of your hand and close it without the least Inconvenience, It is an exact model in every particular of a fully equipped .engine , There are also Lilliputian lawn mow er and two, horizontal engines, f There tare no fewer than 334 pieces In 'the fortner. The collection also comprises a tea service and tray made from two three-penny pieces. - From the i same quantity of silver 'a toast rack, cruet Jug stand, and tray have been evolved. Mention may also be made of the three penny piece, in-which a hole has been bored sideways right through it. ; As an instance of what can be made from one three-penny piece,) there Is a complete coffee service and tray, all fashioned out of the smallest coin of the reafm, while out of three such coins a tea service and tray have been made. On one occasion Mr. Sibbald lost One of his Spoons, and although he searched for It with a " powerful electric light, failed to find it. Next day he discover ed the missing article under his finger nail, where it had remained all night, t .The collection is exceedingly complete almost every article In dally use being inllnd it. two,. -, silver bicycle on? and three-fourths of included in It. There ara a gold and an inch high.. Each cycle cn tains a hundred and two pieces. There are al:io a sold and silver tricydle, each machine boasting three hundred and forty-three pieces. The two carriages wro ight in gold deserve a pusHitg referent The largest, which weigh. sever teen grains Is made ot eighty-live i-lccts. It could easily be drawn by a fly. There are truns and piUU eo small that you riiild place a s,ore of them In your walstocat pocket and not notice their weight, the smallest article, probably, being a lock and key, the weight of which, is under three-quarters of a grainy It Is in twelve r ieces. ' y .When Mr. Sibbald exhibits his mod els he appropriately refers to the, dis play as the "smallest show on earth." Some of his items, which boast of quite a number of pieces, are kept in such curious and minuto receptacles as nuts and cherry stones. For Instance, in one cherry stone ther are a -4ca service, tww.trojs. and twenty-one spoonM, and in another a horizontal engine made of twenty-six pieces. In an almond shcU a slx-chsmbered gold revolver is cotn forfcbly esonced. whUe the Interior of a plum stone affords sufficient accom modation 'for a pair of breech loading piStoirt. f - .. . - But the most wonderful item and ona which has evoked the praise of not only thousands of stonlhed spectators, but of the King and several members of the royal family, is a Barcelona nut, con taining a drawing room suite of eight chairs, rocking and arm chairs, side board and three ornaments, piano and stool with lady playing eouch with lady sitting Upon it, gentleman upon a chair reading a book, lady on chair with tum bler in hand waiter with tray and three tumblers, table with tea service and footstool, bedroom suite, bed and pil low, dressing table with two. orna ments, lady "dressing, washstand.i Jug. and haain. gentleman washing, couch, two footstools small table with tum bler and glass, six trays, towel rsek, small table with bottle, fourteen table, spoons, knife "snd steel, and - gravy spoon. lAll these numerous items eo in one-half of the nut.

Emperor William has allow ed Prince Adelbert, third son of Ills Majesty, to ret up a 'sepe.rate estab lishment In a house 'built for him at Kiel. ; The Prince Is now eighteen years old, and is having his first taste of Inde pendence, o far as the entonrge of his instructors permits. ' He begged his father to allow him four horses for his carriage, but the Emperor, refused.

U. - Wehrung and Sec retary'M. D. Wisdom, of the State Fair Board, are In the city, arranging for Oregon's areat1; Fair. Tuesday, Sep tember lfith, will be Editor's Day, and the editors of the stat have been in vited to visit the Fair on that day. The State Fair Board has asked the Salem Press Club to entertain the visiting pencil pushers on that day, and. the Club w 111 accept this duty." The enter- laiiiiucni. m prooaDiy - consist or a brief but interesting program and press banquet, and the visitors will be shown the sights.' Secretary Wisdom, In speaking of th prospects of the State Fair laa avenlng expresaea nimseji a satisfied with the progress made. He said: "The State Fair at the present time Is an assured success. : Every depart ment promises to be well filled with high claaa exhibits. The pavilion will be filled with agricultural and horticul tural products, representative of the state's resoures. Any one desirous of gaining Information, regarding the pro ductiveness of our coil, will be well paid to visit the State Fair thla Tear. The several counties that are preparing exhibits will fill the pavilion to over flowing, and this will give the new comer a "splendid opportunity to learu of the state's wonderful. resources. "The live stock show will furnish an object lesson to those who wish to study the merits of tbe different breeds. There will probably he nine or ten distinct breeds of cattle, including the leading beef and dairy breeds, and no farmer can afford to misa the. oppor tunity of studying the different types of cattle on exhibition, for they will be representative of each breed. . The racing department will furnish the best sport ever seen on Lone Oak track. .. The large number of high class horses entered assures this fact. Every purse offered Is filled with horses that will make a contest in the respective races, - The Greater Salem Stake,, of course, will be the stellar event of the meeting, and will bring together the highest class horses ever seen on a Northwest track. The entries in this race are being specially prepared for this event, and In no case have they been, or "will they be. fully tried out until they meet to contest foiythls rich stake. -.-----i - , Those who are fond of running races, will also see a very nign ciass field of horses ' start In the Salem Derby of $1,000. This is the largest purse ever given for a running race on th inrk. and naturallv brlnars togeth er a high class of horses, and the track record will certainly be lowered for this evet. This race Is a handicap ana tne horses will be nanaicappea , eo as xu make the face a contest. In fact.' the whole program promises to bring out high class sport, and the oeoole will be wall" repaid for tne time and money spent at this year's State Fair the greatest and best ever held In the state." . , NECESSITY OP FOOT-BATHS. , . Not only are the feet kept comfort able, but the well being of the enure bod7 depends much upon the time and care bestowed upon the feet. The feet should be washed dally in tepid waterand soup, finishing with a dash of codl water to quicken the circulation- and prevent their becoming tow sensKive. i Friction is indispensable to remove tough and callous surfaces and to ren der the foot soft and flexible. Cal losltes may be amoothed with toilet pumice stone. Tney wui not occur n the feet are washed dally. ; The nails should be cut square across the top. If the feet are dry, rub In a little fine toilet cream or vegetable oil until absorbed' i - If the feet ar moist, rinse in water containing a Utile . powdered alum, vinegar or ammonlt. After wiping them perfectly dry, dust on a little tal cum powder. . ; For feet which suffer from exces sive persyplratlon, a little carbolic acid say twenty or thirty drop in a basin of rinse water, is efficacious. Soda I also excellent to neutralise-the acid of the perspiration. The hosiery should be changed daily and the street shoes exchanged for slippers or low, shoes when at home. As a rule the feet are not sufficiently ventilated, and the large pores of the soles reabsorb much t the impurities which they throw off. A frequent change of shoes and stockings and ex posure to the air when possible obviates much of the unpleasant Imprisonment of the feet In thick leather. . f Half an ounce of borax to a pint and one-half of water makes a good rinsing solution." :, ;.--: ..- - Boraclc acid In powder form may be dusted on the feet which perspire dis agreeable With good resoKs. CITIES IJRD TO KILU It Is a difficult" thing to kill a city. and there are some well known places that have so much vitality that they will survive any number of disasters. Tske Rome as a first example. No fewer than ten times has she been swept by pestilence. ,- She has . : been burned twice and starved out on six occasiona. : Heven times ahe baa been besieged or bombarded. Dvrt ahe still flo urfshes. Perhaps that la why she is called the Eternal City. Paris has had eight sieges, ten fam ines, two plagues and one fire which devastated It. We make no reference to the number of revolutions, as they are ; too numerous to mention. But Paris still flourishes, i Constantinople has been burned out! nine times and has suffered from four!

Comparative Beauty The Diamond Is V Not "It." - j In reality the diamond is beautiful than any other far less precious stones, l It simply - reflects prismatic colors and has nothing of its own in the way of attractiveness. Many do pot wear opals because of the ill-luck which superstition says clings to them, yet the ancients thiught the opal the lickiest of stones. - The oriental ipal Is often very valuable and the Mexican stone, while cheaper, is very pretty and brilliant. Set In silver, together with pearls, this stone become surpassingly lovely. Usually we see it in injunc tion with diamonds.' - - ' The amethyst has been much abused because there are so many cheap. grades on the market. People ftrget how fine th good stones are. The lrl ental amethyst has , a wonderful fire, Is very deep In cllor. ofte na deep pur ple, slmetlmes red. : The Jewelers If the far East show such skill In. cutting these . big crystals . that they - become nearly as daxzllng as a dlamind. ,' The amethyst depends upon its set ting for much of its attractiveness. It lloks well in silver, as does the opal. A pin If moderate aise oriental ame thysts set In silver is very unique and handsome. , . ...,. - .' Amber' Is cheap and attractive at once. .It Is usually seen in strings or beads, but there have been so many Imitation on the market that amber beads have fallen Into disrepute. Am be rls also disliked by the people who wear gems not for their, beauty, but to let people know they' can afford such extravagance. ; However, as it is said the supply of amber Is getting alarm ingly small, it may soon rise to prodig ious value. . 1 i CHILDREN HOW THEY ARE SPOILED. ? It is a pathetic truth that more chil dren ace spoiled by too much love! than by too little,. or rather, by love shown In the wrong way. , So anxious is a young mother to see her little one happy, smiling and amused that In quite-early days sha often excites It with playing with it and- taking, tossing, etc, when she had far better let 16 rest and sleep. The happiest and i healthiest babies are those accustomed from the very first to He on a thick, warm rug on the floor. cooing and crowing to themselves and not expecting to be picked up. nursed, rocked tossed and excited. ' And later on the happiest children are those taught to -wait. -on. and ."help mother."" not those perpetually expect ing mother to put alde her work to amuse them. ; It la neither wise nor kind to o wait on a child's pleasure and to spend your time amusing a litle child, picking tip Its ball, build ng houses with It : ' bricks, fetching and carrying for It, is to destroy Its power f self-reliance, ro snake r it grow up masterful, and selfish and un fit it for a world In which the most helpful arc the most happy. IMPROVED F. pens up In the morning and out at night, changing plates at luncheon - or breakfast, are splendid training and great delight. ; . . Then they shoudl be taught and en - courfeged to keep their own cupboards and drawers or special shelf in a cup board, very neat; to. put away their boots and gloves and outdoor things; to lace their own boots and wait' on themselves generally.' For this reason each child should, an far as possible, have shelf, cupboard, drawers, or chest of drawers for itself, as you . cannot hold them responsible, for the tidiness of those they only share. Children so trained will become useful, helpful men and women, while 7 those incessantly waited , on and with everything do.ne for them w 11 U-:o likely be idle, help less and Untidy.
