cised, it heing taken for granted
that, because certain articles made
from very fine smooth linen prove
harmful to the eyes, all patterns of
drawn work are equally injurious.
The harm comes not so muoh from
the quality of the linen and the pat
tern of the work as from the unwise
methods of working.

But for the table and bed linen the
quality known as linen sheeting is
more desirable.
The handsome little doilies which
grace the cake and bread plates, eta.
are within the reach of every house
wife who has a few odd moments
each day to devote to needlework. A
third of a yard of linen sheeting
will make eight good sized ones and
will cost about 50 cents. All that is
needed besides the linen is a spool
of linen thread Xo. 160 or, if color
is desired, a few skeins of wash silk
and a strip of oDeloth on which to
haste the work.
It may bo better to make the doi
lies in sets of six two large ones for
the bread plates, sny 10 inches
square after they are hemmed,
somewhat smaller for the cake
pistes and still smaller for the fin
ger bowls. The hem wears much bet
ter than even the double fringe
which is so popular. For the doilies
make the hem about an inch wide
and draw three or four threads for
the hemstitching. For the drawn
work use a simple pattern about 2
inches wide and rather close.
For a carving cloth (half a yard
or linen sheeting will make three)
a more elaborate pattern may be se
lected, and a much broader oae, and,
if desired, corners may be worked
inside of the border.

work are very handsome and may
be finished with hemstitching and
fine linen lace.
"Very pretty drapes for the dress

the finer grades of butchers' linen,
or scrim, and are easily and quick
ly made, as the threads are readily

on as if nothing had happened. This

when all novels were issued in three '

brary to be successful its subscribers
must live within a certain radius;
otherwise the cost of carriage makes
the process of exchanging books too
expensive.

During the last few years, howev
er, the gap caused by the absence of
circulating libraries has begun to be
fiBed by the public libraries which
have sprung into existence in nearly !
every large city. At the present
time there are over 300 of these
public libraries, which are regarded
as standing sufficiently high to be
entitled to gratuitous copies of all
the United States government pub-
, Kcations, and the number is con
stantly increasing. Most of these li
braries have a reference department
and a lending department. But the
lending departments are much more

those of similar English institutions.

FINE TEA AND COFFEE.
Aerisa3 Sore Been. Tanght to P2y
Hit Priees Yet, Says a-Duller. i
There is a dealer in coffee in this
city who snorts when he hears peo-,
pie talking about the difficulty cf j
making good coffee. j
"The making be jiggered," ho
gays. "The important thing is not
how the coffee is made, but the j
quality of the coffee. There area
dozen different ways of mnktng cat- j
fee, all of which produce equally
good results, and not more skill or
oare is required than in cooking any
thing else. The quality of the coffee
is the thing, and because Americans
insist on buying cheap grades of
coffee they don't get good coffee.
They blame their wives and their
servants for the result of their own
false economy. Americans chink
more coffee than any other nation, .
but they don't drink the best. They
flrrnTr coff ee as a staple article of
diet and don't study its finer quali
ties. In Europe people pay from 19
to 20 cents more a pound on an aver- j
age for good qualities of coffee than j
is paid here. People here haven't ;
been trained to pay above a certain ;
price for coffee.
"When I began business, I want
ed to supply something a little bet
ter than the citizens of this town
were accustomed to. I imported a
lot of especially fine Ceylon planta
tion coffee. It cost me 41 cents a
pound wholesale, unroasted. In
roasting, coffee loses about one-sixth
of its weight, so that this coffee,
roasted, would have been worth
about 50 cents a pound without the
dealer's profit. That is about twice
the wholesale price of crdinary good
coffee. With that I made a mixture
that I could sett at 45 cents a pound.
I found that it actuahy hurt my
business instead of helping it. Peo
nle got an idea that I was a fraud
because I was so high priced.
""I had the same experience with
tea. Americans don't drink especial
ly fine tea. I thought the reason of
that was that they didn't know any
"hpttpr. and I tried to sive them a
chance to learn. I imported a ,Iot of
very fine Chinese tea. It was not the
very finest, but it was so good that
it came in small packages wrapped
up in silk. I could make a small
profit on it selling it at $3 a pound.
I expected it would be quite a draw
ing card for me, but when the first
customer came in and asked how
much my best tea was, and I said
k$3 a pound, he nearly fainted. It
might have hurt my business seri
ously, only he happened to be a
friend of mine and agreed to say
nothing about it. After that I was
careful to size up my customers be
fore telling them the cost of my best
tea. Now I have best tea, very best
tea, extra best tea and the $3 kind. '
Many Chinese Iaundrymen drink'
better tea than some millionaires.
It comes packed in pound boxes
with glass covers and with bunches .
of the whole tea leaves tied up to
gether in silk. i
"If men will buy cheap coffee '
there is only one way to make it
taste good. Let them start out in
the evening, walk ten miles into the ,
woods, sleep all night in camp and
get up at a o'clock the next morning
and make their own coffee. Then it
win taste Hke nectar, no matter

How the Comstock Ende Was Discovered.
In January, 1S59, a streak of warm
weather tempting some of them out'
Comstock, Old Virginia and sev
eral others found surface diggings r
near Slippery gulch. They named
the place Gold Hill, and, staking out
claims, proceeded to work the de
composed outcroppings over Crown
Point, Yellow Jacket, Belcher, Ken
tuck and other great mines as yet
undiscovered. From the time they
started the rockers,using water from
a spring close by, Gold Ilfll averaged
$20 a day to the man. June 1, O "Ri
ley and McLaughlin, whose claim in
Six Mile canyon paid only $2 or $3 a
day, suddenly cut into the rock on
the surface of Ophir, at the north
end of the Comstock, and began to
take out gold at the rate of $1,000 a
day. They had only been working
a few hours when Comstock happen
ed along, saw the value of the dis
covery, laid a general floating claim
to a mythical stock ranch in the re
gion and fairly bluffed the good na
tured discoverers into taking him
self and Manny Penrod as equal
partners. Ken tuck Osborne after
ward came in, and the five took up
the original Ophir claim. Charles

"Yes, " she said, "but don't hurry

Next day he learned that her fa
ther had an educated rooster that
crowed every night at 10:30 o'clock,
and of course the match is off.

A skeleton of a fish is prized very
highly as a ouriosky by Mr. Augus
tus Banoit of the little two masted
schooner Ernest Dacosta cf Halifax.
"This is, ' said Mr. Benoit, while
showing his prize, "the skeleton of
what js known as the wandering fish,
and there are not half a dozen other
specimens in the world. The name
has been applied to it because so few j
hfive been captured. Its wonderful ;
feature is that on the front of the
skeleton there is a perfect outline of I
the scene on Calvary. The Saviour,
with outstretched arms and with his
head sightly inclined to the left
shoulder, is plainly marked. 2serr
the left side of the head is a clearly
defined heart- Above the head of the
figure the vertebral form a crown
of thorns.
"Striking also, ' con tinned Mr. Be
noit, ''Is the reverse side of the fish's
skeleton. With arms extended, as if
invoking benediction, the figure of a
bishop is presented. The ornamen
tation of the vestments is delicately
traced in the bone, the cross being
represented by seams running up
and down and across the back of the
chasuble. The bishop is barehead
ed, but his miter is supplied by a
part of the skeleton which is fitted
over the head of the figure. Another
bone makes the erozier. Holding the
skeleton up to the light, it appears
transparent, with the human form
outlined within it." Baltimore Sun.
