A patrolman on Third street saw a man the other night fussing away at the front door of a house in what seemed to be a suspicious manner, and he felt it his duty to approach and de- mand: ‘Say, now, but what are you trying to do there?” The man came down to the sidewalk and took a squint at the offieer and re- plied; “Policeman, eh? less a husband?” “Yes, sir.” Sir, you are doubt- “And now and then you leave your fireside and go out to take a walk etly.” ‘And the hours pass so swiftly that before you realize it the tolling the hour of midnight” “That's the way of it. I've been caught that way a score of times. It’s funny how it comes midnight so soon after ten o'clock.” “Officer,” continued the citizen reached out to shake hands, wives are kickers.” “Alas, yes!” “My wife is one. At half-past ten she locked this door and went up stairs, saying to herself that I might roost on the steps or go to a hotel.” “And that’s my wife to a dot,” sighed the officer. “IT have been home for half an hour. I have tried all the doors and windows. I have softly called the name of my Maria. Ihave thrown pebbles at her window.” “And you are still on the outside?” “Tam, and it may be tacitly under- stood between the two of us that I'll have to remain on the outside until the hired girl gets up in the morning if this button hook won't work the lock. Officer, good night.” “Good night, sir.” “Tacitly understood, and you needn't worry over burglars and skeleton keys. I,may want you in the morning to swear that we stood talking on the corper when the bells struck 10, but uutil then farewell.” An hour later the officer returned, and through the frosty curtain vailing the night he made out a figure humped up against the front door. He made no halt, and uttered no word. He tacitly understood that the button hook hadn't worked and the man who took a walk was still on the outside.— Detroit Free Press. A Spider's Appetite. Observing the voracity of spide: Sir John Lubbock concluded to determine the quantity of food which one of these creatures consumed. He caught a large one, and, weighing it carefully, supplied it with insects, the weight of which had been accurately determined. He carried the experiment through a considerable period of time, and here is hissumming up of the extraordinary results: At a similar rate of con- sumption, a man weighing one hun- dred and sixty pounds would require a whole fat steer for breakfast, a steer and five sheep for dinner, and for sup per two bullocks, eight sheep and four hogs. This would hardly suffice for the twenty-four hours, so just before retiring, he would call for and con- sume nearly four barrels of fresh fish. —Detroit F Press. Exceptions to the Rule.

Plain blue denim looks well in a room with ivory-white paint and a pale wall paper decorated in arabesques. If the paper is of solid tint, the curtains should show stripes or figures. The fact that a curtain is to hang in folds so that the pattern will be more or less broken when it is hung must be borne in mind when purchasing it.

St. Louis in a Blaze of Glory.—Sev- en Weeks of Uninterrupted perpendicular stripes are not to be thought of, but horizontal stripes, which are not broken in pattern when falling in folds, are always a good choice, ifin suitable colors. A plain curtain with a striped dado or a frieze at the top is easily obtained in inex- pensive material, and “furnishes” well. Cotton velvets are often used for cur- tains, but as they require lining they are not so economical a choice as Tur- coman, which is alike on both sides and may be bought at one dollar a yard in double width. A very pretty portiere may be made at home of silk patches. Cut the silk in strips, and sew them together in the same way you do carpet rags. Any old silk or cast-off ribbons that have been cleaned, will do for the purpose.

In the shops one finds beautiful lam; s and shades adapted to the use of ges and electricity. Some of the globes for use with the incandescent lights resemble jewels incolor and briliancy. Tall lamps for halls and corners of rooms usually have flaring colored glass globes, which are put on the lamps concave side up, and for this reason the term shade seems hardly appropriate. There are pretty candle- stick lamps with clear glass globes, through which the candle light comes. These are often further embellished by a side screen, the usual thing being a jeweled butterfly ora dainty cupid. Of course there are all sorts of lovely candle shades both in silkand lace and in paper. For lamps almost everything is used for shades; dainty creations in silk and lace; pretty and ugly things in paper—for the French use a great many paper shades, not the elaborate and exquisite kinds that are made from soft, crinkled paper. but stiff paper fluted and of all colors. ain even lower prices. ies are not r e and One lampshade that seems to be a/ fad at present is of pasteboard.
