"JJR The Poet and the Sansage9. Poets really do not feed on air. Indeed, though they may he hungry in a distraught and absent-minded way, they probably eat as much as other men. More, perbups, sometimes. Heinrich Heine once destroyed the pleasure of a little supper by a mixture of appetite and absent-mindedness, of which he afterwards became conscious with regret and yet with a spice of amusement. Heine, when a student at Gottingen, was invited with a fellow student to take cupper with Professor Hugo and his hospitable wife. The fare was simple, and not too plentiful, but one dish was viewed with conscious pride by the hostess, who evidently felt that nothing 1J t-- L.ii? / -- i.i.. :? rru:? vuuiu uu ueuer lor tuu ucc&sjuu. xmo "was a small plate containing four fat sausages, with tempting gravy and garaiahings of green. The choice dish was passed first to Heine who was in the full tide of a long and animated discourse, setting forth his opinions and some question which had been started by the professor. Instead of helping himself to one sausage, and allowing the di6h to proceed on its way to the others, who were eagerly expecting it, he seized the plate, placed it before him,and proceeded to dispose ot one sausage after another, not neglecting the gravy, either, until ! the garnishings alone remained to show the havoc he had made. Coming to the end of his speech at about the name time that he had finished the last sausage, he looked at the gloomy face<> about him, then at the empty dish, discovered what had been the meaning of certain spasmodic attempts on the part of Professor Hugo and his distracted spouse to interrupt his flow of language, and of course made profuse apoligies. But he was never invited to that house for supper again?the chauce of being left supperless themselves was too great tor his hosts to risk it a second timei?Yankee Blade. Hints Aboat Selecting Wall Paper. A wall paper should never be dull and undecided, nor should it be startling. It should harmonize with the pictures and the hangings?in fact, with all the decorations of the room, and should, so to speak, diffuse a general tone over the whole room. One must consider the pictures and all that goes toward furnishiug the room in selecting the paper. Papers with a loose, flowing design in light gray, green, blue, or even yellow always accord with prints and delicate water colors, and, on the other hand, a better background is obtained for oil paintings l or pictures that are richly framed in gilt by sober paper. Then comes the division of the wall. If the room is a high I one, the wall looks better divided into three parts, a dado, the wall paper and the frieze. The dado, or wainscot, which is the older name, was at one time very fashionable in panels, though it has at present been entirely given up. This is a pity, as those who have seen rooms in old houses treated in this manner can affirm that wchave not gained very much by giving up this old style, and some have tried to get back to it, if not in actual woodwork, at least in devices that produce a similar effect.?New York Commercial Advertiser. Sea Bean Jewels. The Jewelers' Review tells how the sea bean first came to be used in the manufacture of jewelry. About twenty years ago Captain Ilaig, of a small trading schooner making trips between Jacksonville, Fla., and the islands south and eouthwest of Florida, noticed on one of the Windward Islands several varieties of the {beans. Thinking they may be of some value as a curiosity, he purchased Ilium tuc uanvco IUI a u<uici ui a large number of sacks filled with them. Taking them to Jacksonville, he sold them to Damon Greenleaf, the jeweler, at the price of one cent apiece and went off rejoicing at his bargain. On his next trip to Jacksonville he found that Mr. GreeDleaf had polished them,mounted them in various ways and was selling them at ?2.50 apiece. They hit the fancy of the Northern tourist and the rieweler i3 said to have made somewhere in the neighborhood of $75,000 by his Tenture. During the past three months Philadelphia has had 360 tires, involving the payment of insurance losses amounting to $1,017,986.

Instead of the dead white, which has always been the proper graduate's dress, there may be worn gowns of pale pink, pale blue or aiiy of the wonderful new shades which are so beautiful and so becoming.

One of the latest schemes of Chicago women, who are not less wide-awake than the men to the possibilities of their big fair, is to build and run a mammoth women's hotel on a profit-sharing plan. The use of the land has been contributed; the material, the projectors hope, may come out of the wigwam which is being constructed for the National Democratic Convention; and the expense of conduction is to be borne by subscription, to start at $5 a share, from women all over the country. Mrs. Matilda B. Carse and Mrs. Potter Palmer are working out the problem, and hope that during the Exposition 50U0 workingwo:r.en may be entertained daily at the hotel at a cost of thirty cents a day for each one. If there are any profits the stockholders will divide them.?3oston Transcript. LADY COMMERCIAL TRAVELERS.

Her salary allows her to travel in good style, living at the best hotels.

One firm of manufacturers in London employs lady travelers; and many others, especially manufacturers of | dress goods in which a woman's taste is of value, would be willing to engage women instead of men, provided the women had business capacity, a good appearance, good manners and a good physique to endure the fatigue involved in constant travel.?Yankee Biade. THE GIRL WITH THREE COWXS. Who ever heard of a girl with only three gowns to her name? "Well, we have, and she is one of the best dressed and most stylish young women of our acquaintance. The way she manages is thi3, she always gets the best, has it made iu the very latest style, and does not have a lot of half-worn, out-of-date gown3 hanging up in her wardrobe. One is a tailor-made cloth that is suitable for street, church or informal calls; another is a charming black gown with two bodices, one low for evening wear and the other trimmed with gold passementerie for afternoon receptions, the concert, etc., and the third is a delightful house dress that she never dons elsewhere. Thus she keeps her street and evening gowns fresh, and always looks most charmingly and stylisly robed. Follow her example and do not load up with a lot of clothes that will inevitably become passe long before you will be able to wear them ouk?Detroit Free Press. A GIRL "SOONER.'' Miss Aunetta Daisey, whose record as the dashing leader of "sooners" has reached the Atlantic coast is a Kentucky girl. For twelve years she was a teacher at Port Oldham in that State. She subsequently went to Louisville, where she taught in the public schools and until she quarreled with the trustees. She then went into politics and was twice defeated as candidate for State Librarian. She next appeared in Washington, seeking a position, and with letters of recommendation from all the prominent men worth knowing she secured the appointment as teacher for one of the Indian schools. When Oklahoma was thrown open Miss Daisey was in the front rank. Her own description of her exploit, in which she jumped from a train, and, kneeling on the ground, fired two revolvers in the air, exclaiming: ''Thus I salute the Kentucky Daisey's claim," is most thrilling. Such, indeed, are all her adventures, and the telegrams she sends announcing them to the newspapers make blood-curdling reading. Instead of writing dime novels, as Miss Daisey is perfectly competent to do, she prefers to live them. She is as restless and as daringas a cowboy, warm-hearted, true to her friends, and absolutely upright in character. A Chicago correspondent, who enjoys her acquaintance, describes her as bronzed by sun and wind, but still a handsome woman. ?New York Sun. A GROTESQUE "WEDDING GOW1T. A -widow worth $8,000,000 and married in green! It hardly seems a9 if sentiment ought to govern the choice of the wedding garment?that is to say, any sentiment except a good old fashioned devotion to conventionalities. Yet recently in New York City, Mine, de Barrio3, the mother of nine little boys and girls and the widow of a general who left her that immense fortune, elected green as the color of her bridal gown, because forsooth she wore that particular color on the occasion of her first meeting a year ago with the fortunate bridegroom, Senorde Roda. It was a very costly dress, of course, , made in Paris, the material being a frosted silver brocade of a pale eau de lile tone (scarce a color), the heavy train of which was embroidered all round with silver threads, among which was interwoven knots of frosted silver ribbon held in place by buckles of emeralds. The sleeves reached the elbows and were wholly of embroidery, and the corsage was cut decollette and bordered with silvered ribbons in high loose knots on the shoulders, fastened there by similar buckles of emerald. Of course a bridal feil did not accompany this magnificent rob*. "Widows do not indulge themselves in the soft voluminous folds of lace we call a wedding veil. Mam'selle wonders why. Have you any idea? It would be aa interesting thing to look up the origin of and superstitions about a bridal veil.?Chicago Herald. A DRESS OF SPIDERS' WBB8. Mrs. White mentions as a great curiosity the dress made from spiders' webs presented to the Queen by the Empress of Brazil in 1877. Most ceriainly it is, and to most British minds such a thing might 6eem incredible; but if your correspondent were to visit Fiji?which is famous for its magnificent spiders?he might perhaps have less cause for wonder. The web made by the big yellow spider here is very large and strong; but in addition to the web proper, in which flies, mosquitoes, etc., are caught, it spins a cocoon of orange colored, silky, gossamer-like stuff, which, if taken up in the fingers, requires quite an effort to break. This stuff, I can conceive, might be woven into material for a dress. Might not the dress ia question have been composed of 1 A i .1 _ i 1.1.. T> :i: similar material muue uy uie diu^ihuu spiders? I can hardly, even now, believe that it could have been composed of what we understand to be the ordinary spider's web. I can quite imagine, however, that such a material might be of some commercial value, as one frequently hear9 complaints at the present dcy of a want of fineness in fibres or materials used for scientific purposes. I may add that our cockroaches are hugh, too; but by a merciful dispensation of Providence, our spiders are in ! proportion. The particular enemy of ! the cockroach here is not the big yellow j spider above mentioned, but a longj legged, formidable-looking brown spider, i called the 4'hunting spider." I caunot ! find out that this species spins any web, but apparently depends upon its great activity for securing its prey. I know, i however, that it can bite pretty sharply, I as I once saw one draw blood from the ! finser of a doctor friend of mine who I was capturing it for me. It is often to j be seen hugging a large, flattened, cir| cular, cream-colored bag, which, I take it, contains its eg-js. We never kill spiders in Fiji. The natives venerate them a3 much as the Dutchman does his stork, and perhaps with more reason. Since writing the above I have been told by a friend of mine here that on one occasion he had carefully examined the long line stretched between two points irom which the web of the big yellow spider mentioned above was suspended, and found that it had a beautiful golden, silky appearance, and was so strong that he was able to wind it round a piece of cardboard. If this can be considered part of the web proper, then in all probability a light, silky material could be woven from it. and the Brazilian dress be not quite so extraordinary as at first sight it might appear.?Notes and Queries.

Most of the bodices for slender, youthful women are sharply pointed, and are still made to fasten under the arm or else at the back. Artificial flowers are so true to nature i this season, and so perfect, one canuot | help being disappointed to find the fragrance wanting. Gray seems to be gaining in favor, if that were possible. Silks, cambrics, cambreys, millinery wraps, draperies and luncheons in gray, are the rule. Sunshades are blossoming out in endless variety, and such tempting styles, so opposite in effect and bo novel and dainty, render a selection something of a task. The prettiest trimmings for French ginghams, batistes, zepnyrs ana simuar fabrics are of openwork embroideries, point de Gene or the light and delicate Irish linen laces. , One stylish bonnet is almost in the shape of a skull-cap. It is worn well j back on the head, is very flat, and has | little trimming other than a full bunch j ot plumes exactly at the back. The pretty capes to be worn at the . seaside and in the mountains this summer * are as a rule made of French camel's j hair, very light and soft to the touch, but slightly rough in appearance. Bonnets made of jeweled gimp are pretty and stylish. They are very plain, i that is have little if any trimming other | than the material of which they are made. This, however, is so elegant that nothing further is required. Gray gloves bound and stitched with black are cew. As usual there are some ! startlioa eccentricities in gloves; green, a medium blue and purple being among the new importations. All the same, my lady doesn't wear them. Round hats, in very mannish styles, are effected by youug ladies for street wear. They are particularly liked with tailor-made costumes, and will undoubtedly be as popular as the Alpine, which had such a run some seasons ago. One of the new French bonnets in black is merely a very large butterfly of real lace, a pair of spreading lace wings lying flat upon the waves of hair. The very slender body is of black plush, and the head and anwnuse are in sparkling , cut jet. HOUSEHOLD MATTERS. HTGrEOTC DISH WAfmTNO.

The flavor of food baked or boiled in earthenware is said by those who have made the experiment to be far superior to that of vegetable or animal food cooked in the same way in iron vessels, for the reason that iron is a conductor of heat, while earthenware is a non-conductor; consequently, food cooked in the latter is rarely trer burned, the degree of heat not varying perceptibly during the process of cooking, thus preserving the flavor of what is cooked, as well as uniformity throughout the substance of the meat, vegetables or grain, until the process of cooking is completed. So earthenware takes the premium, as il deserves to, and those who have found out how much better thsy can do theii cooking in these vessels than in ironwari give pots and kettles a cold shoulder.? Boston Cultivator. A GOOD CLOTHESLINE. A clothesline is a utilitarian article which is quite likely tothru9titself in ac unseemly manner upon our attention, especially in close city yards where most of the available space must be taken up in drying the clothes. The old-fashioned hempen line has great disadvantages. To give proper satisfaction, it must be taken down and put up again every week, and the average laundress is quite 1 r ?1 ? ??Ua1 <m*a? fKo 4miih1a on/? looXTd ii.li.ei V LU 1CUC1 v?tl VUb WUUV4V 4VH?? the unsightly tifing in the yard tobecomf rotten, worthle39 and moldy with rail and sun. A far better material for a clothesline is the ordinary telegraph wire which is now sold for that purpose in hardware stores. It will outlast a dozen hempen clotheslines. When in is properly put up by a strong man it does not sag like a hempen line. It does not break. It is not unsightly because it is so fine that it is hardly a noticable feature of the yard. It can be wiped oif at each time the clothes are hung out, with a cloth,so that it need not soil the clotues like an old hempen line. It is not ex pensive, and altogether it seems to solve the question of a clothesline better than anything else.?New York Tribune. RECirss.

Stuffed Egg Plant?Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and parboil them in salted water; scoop out most of the inside and pound this to a paste in the mortar, with a little fat bacon and some mushrooms previously chopped up;' a little onion, also chopped; pepper and salt to taste, and a little crumb of bread soaked in stock.

Remove the skin and put it with that so reserved. Boil the finger length until tender (saving the water to throw into the soup.) Put the asparagus points to drain. Break from six to ten eggs into a pan with three tablespooufuls of raw cream and beat well together. Put into a sauce- pan a tablespoonful of butter and stir in the eggs, then add the asparagus points. When done place the mass in good shape on a mound of bread crumbB fried brown in butter. The Tea Plant. The tea plant is indigenous to India. When cultivated the plants are set out in rows at a sufficient distance from each other to give room for growth. The tea plant will grow on any elevation, but reaches it Greatest height on low ground. When plants have attained their growth they are cut back to a height of twenty inches and allowed to branch out anew. The leaf is always plucked from the top of this new growth. The leaves are picked indiscriminately, and 9pread out thinly on canva9 to wither. This makes them soft and pliable. It takes twentyfour hours to prepare the leaves for rolling, which is dioe by a machine whose Burfaces are of wood. No metal ever ccmes in contact witb the leaf. The tea now looks green, aud when l*fired" at once is sold f"r green tea. Black tea is that which is allowed to lie in drawers until it turns to a light brown before it is fired. The firing is done by a machine heated to 180 degrees by means of hot-air pipes leading from a furnace. Over this machine coolies pass the leaves in trays, back and forth, until they become crisp. After this the leaves are separated into three grades, an 1 each grade ia carefully lreed from dust before packing.?Kate Field's Washington.

Sun.) To the Editor: Sir?As ray name and face have appeared id your paper and the public prints Jately, and as many of my professional brethren are wondering at it, I feel it only just that I should make an explanation. The statement published over my name was made ten years ago, after long and mature investigation, and I have never cHanged my mind as to the facts then stated. At that time I said,as a physician, that I believed Warner's Safe Cure was the best of all known preparations for the troubles it was advocated to cure, and I say so still. I known it is considered the proper thing for the medical profession to decry proprietary and other advertised articles; but why should they do so? As the late Dr. J. G. Holland, writing | over his own name in Scribner's Monthly, ? Ottiu. "It is a fact that many of the best proprietary medicines of the day are more successful than many physicians, and most of , them were first discovered or used in actual ? medical practice; when, however, any per- g pon knowing their virtue and foreseeing their popularity secures and advertises I them, in the opinion of the bigoted all virtue < Went out of them." j Dr. Holland was an educated phyBician, . an unprejudiced observer, and he spoke ' from a broad and unusual experience^ Pro- j prietary medicines should not be decried. | The evidences of their value are overwhelming. I have seen patients recover from -I pravel, inflammation of the bladder and Bright's disease after using Warner's Safe , Cure, even when all other treatment had ' failed. < I make this frank and outspoken statement in the interests of humanity and because I know it to be true. I trust for the same ' reason, you will give it to the public. J Respectfully, 1 R. A. Gcn*. No. 124 West Forty-seventh street, New York, Mjarctf 1. j Tile Tirtne of Hot Milk. It is worthy of reiteration that milk heated to as high a temperature as it can be drunk or sipped, above 100 degrees, but not to the Moiling point, is of great value as a refreshing stimulant in cases of over-exertion, bodily or mental. To ' most people who like milk, it does not taste so good hot,but that is a small matter compared with the benefit to be gut '/from it. Its action is exceedingly prompt and grateful, and the effects much more satisfactory and far more lasting than those of any alcoholic drink whatever. It supplies real strength as well as exhilaration, which alcohol never does.? Southern Household.
