Mrs. Ilorer, 111 t he Household News, answering a correspondent who asked whether coffee should be kept in a cool or a warm place, says: "In a cool, but not cold nor very warm place.

The uuroasted coffee should bo kept in an open mat. allowing the air to circulate through and ripen it. to arrangk flowers. One principle must be recognized iu the arrangement of floral decorations, which is that every spray of leaves or blade of grass put in to till up should bo graceful. The accidents and freaks of nature have no place in decoration. If flowers are scarce buds and leaves may be used in tint low decoratious.to be looked down upon. Iu their season largo leaves with autmun tints may be effectively used with small flowers. There must be contrast of form as well as contrast of color. There should be one large flower in every bouquet as a general rule. The arrangement of sev oral kinds of flowers in one bouquet is looked upon as a monstrosity by some oriental Nations. This idea lias great influence now, and where the leaf and stem are decorative iu form and color only the flowers and leaves of the same kind of plant are placed iu the same vase.

"They've took off tho night train," said he. "Wnrn't enough passengers to pay thin wiuter." tteth looked at his oxen's ears. I looked at. Setli. "All alone up there, ain't you?" said he, abruptly. "Yen," I acknowledged, "I am all alone." "Better jest git aboard the sled an 1 coino down to our place to stay all night," suggested Setli. Oh, 1 couldn't do that?" T answered. "I expect JRufus's mother down from Montreal at any time now; and there's the house to look after. Besides, I'm not all afraid. Why should I be?" "Oh, I dunno!" said betli, cutting a fresh plug of tobacco. "It's kind o' spooky up there, ain't it, with Betsey gone?" And then I remembered that my maid-oi-all-work had been summoned to the sick bed of some ancient relative, a few miles away. My perturbed lace must have appealed to honest tteth's sense of cliiv airy, for he burst out all of a sudden "I'll tell ye what, Mrs. Arden. I'l send little Polly up to stay all night with you. Polly's only a slip of i thing, but she's a deal o' company, and I'm pretty surtin she wouldn't like nothin' 110 bettor." "Oh, thank you!"' said I. "It?wil! be very kind of you, Mr. Shapely."' And 1 ntrolled buck to the house, the crisp wind blowing my hair back, and the re?t sunset gleams lighting u} the frozen landscape as with bars o blood. I was an artist's wife. We had nol bean married a year yet, and Rufui had gone to the city to see about soim pictures that he was placing on sale in i. great art room. We had been able to hire Raquettt House, as this tine old mansion was called, at a merely nominal rate, at the wealthy pork-)?acker v. ho built il was tired of the loneliness of the situ ation and had moved to Atlantic City, where his money would make mort show. And Rufus had the option ol ]>aying the rent by painting a set ol panel pictures for his seaside dining room. Tt was n larger house than we needed, but the grounds aud gardens were delightful, and after all, as Rufus ami 1 reasoned, it didn't cost us any more than a smaller house would, aud was i deal move m i it.lie. Rut it did seem rather big am nliuunv in tin. i/ntlmriii./ .ln^L- .... I n- ? "v " vl?" J came in thnt night, more ?specially a> 1 hail never before been nlouo in it morn than a few hours at a time. Consequently f was not sorry a fev minutes afterward to hear Polly Hhap ley's voice as I sat by the tire. "[ came in the west door," breathcfl Polly, flushed with the haste she ha, made. "Did you know, Mis' Ardeu. the west door waru't bolted?" Polly was a tail fourteen-year-older with a curly crop of hair and a uase voice. "Betsy was careless about th? doors," said I, romembcriug with > guilty pane Hufus had bidden me hi very careful about securing the promises in his absence. "Ilecanao," lie hud Baid, "tliereh tha. money Wclford wanted me ft bank for him in the .studio deskdrawer, and the dmri?>nd necklace iu the cabinet.'' 'f 1 f And then, irltn a snctaen artergleain of recollection it flashed across me jur-t where Rufus had stood, by the depot stove, when he spoke the words, and how a stout, short man, iu n slouched fur capo and a ragged overcoal, had watched us as he waited for a ticket ?*ul chewed tobacco. Could he have hcBi^Althc-svord ? Ami bow was ho to know that "tho diamond necklace" was ouly a state trinket of out glass, borrowed of an artist friend for the decoration of the lay figure, or that Wei ford's money only a few dollars, sent in reoavinent of something ho had borrowed from Rufus? Upon the whole, 1 was glail that' Polly Shapely had come to bear mo company during that long, solitary winter night. Of course there was no danger, but that ? "We'll go bach and bolt it, Polly," said T. "Oil, T done that!" said Polly. "GraciousI ain't them hails dark! I came through the study?" "Studio, Polly," I gently corrected Iter. "Studio, then," Polly accepted tho cmandatiou. "The fire ain't unite out, here. Ain't 110 danger o' lire, is there?" "Perhaps it had better lie covered with ashes," said I. "Run and attend to it, Polly, an 1 I'll seo about tho Li1 a." i ..1............. i \f gin mmiu uuu uiiloiuiho in my bag," cried Polly, "and acme o* - miMIIIM1 H PI'/ IIMHRHTHIIH.

I could swear there was spooks a-rushin' arter ine." "What nonsense, Polly!" said I. But, nevertheless, I handed her the bras'* candlestick that Rufus had bought at a salo on account 01 its antiquity. T was ju t hanging over the tea-kettle when the scuffle of Polly's footsteps was heard unco more, this time at railroad rate. "1 wouldn't be hired to go through that there study ag'in, Mis' Ardeu," said she, slamming down the candlestick on tho table. "Why, Tolly, what's tho matter?" "Thorn portraits a star in' down at me!" gasped the girl. "Their eyes n 1 folleriu' mo all round I Gracious, what u start it gimme 1" "That's the way portraits always uo, Polly," explained I. "You'rea goose 1" "1 can't help it," panted Polly. "It fu'rly makes me creep. An't he woman ' in white, standiu' up on tho platform ?she turned her head an' looked ut m , she *lid." " What, Polly?a wooden figure, dressed like the Lady of Avenel?" ami ? J burst out laughing. "Why, it's , jointed, like a doll!" "Well, I can't help it. It did turn its head. And I wouldn't go back tlifirn rnjr'iti Afin' Ardf>li lint, if villi wtw. to give mo a silver dollar 1" "Well, Polly, you needn't." I soothed her, perceiving that she was really nervous and frightened. "We'll have tea hero by the lire, and afterward we'll roast the apples and the chestnuts. There are no portraits hero to fallow you with their eyes." And Polly soon forgot her tribulations in the tea, the raspberry jam nnd tho tales I told her of life in beautiful, ice-girdled Montreal. I made her up an impromptu bod on a sofa in my own room opening from this cheerful, fire-lighted apartment; but when sho was asleep and snoriug, I quietly throw a shawl over my shoulders nnd relighted the candle. "I will seo after that tiro myself," thought I. "There's no telling what accidents might happen, and we are not insured." Nevertheless, I could but remember Polly's idea of tho "spooks" as I passed along the silent, moonlighted hall to the studio door. Opening it suddenly, tho draught blow out my candle; but the moon illuminated the room with a faint silver radiance, aiul olio or two live embers yet glimmered on the (It;op liearth,the last remains of Rufus's cherished Yule* log. .fust in the line of the bigmullioncd . window tlie lay figure occupied its accustomed place on a carpeted dais I close to Rufus'.s easel, and chanciugto t glance in that direction my blood , froze chill. From beneath the white hood of the I, "Lady of Aveuol," which had been Rufus's last historical study, a pair of I real, human eyes peerned to flash a sudden furtive look at me, and?was it only a memory of Polly's panic, a mere freak of my disordered iniagiua, tion, or did the figure really move a , little? With electrio swiftness, the whole L thing rushed across my miud?Rufus's careless words at the railway station, , the stout stranger in tho fur cap, the , fact of my being alone and defenseless in this solitury spot Yet, after the first fright, my senses , seemed to rally themselves into a strange calm. 1 relighted my candle ( at the last Yule ember, covered it with a bed of ashes, composedly walked across the floor as if nothing unusuai had happened, and softly locked the I door behind me. "He's welcome to tho stage necklace if ho wants it." thought I; "and the money is safe in a Braual-lockcd desk. Tlio studio window is a deal too high for him to escape that, way, | besides being guarded with a strong i wire netting; and I don't sec how else i h?- can escape, unless ho goes up the chimney." Then 1 went hack to my own room, ' where the tire crackled cheerily, and D .11 1 !iL _ _ .it..'

With the eriiuHon Hush of daybreak, I wa:i about to route f'olly Up aud ?eud her down to Buurmmi her father, ; "hen a loud knocking at the door 1 startled me. , It was Rufus himself I "Well, pussy," said he, "were you nervous about beiug left alone? I got , San; Penny to row me over the river, and canio across country in a cutter. Here's Seth Shapley, with his ox team, , to take his girl home. Got any fire? , I'm half frozen to death." "Kiifuft?Mr. Hhapley !" I gasped, "don't stop hercl Come right to the ( studio. Here's tho key. I don't , know, but I think?I'm almost sure ? there's a man locked up there !" t Without pausing to answer their eager questions, I hurried them along Y /. x, the wide, tile-paved hall, and in *1niost leas time thar it takes to relate I the incidents the door was unlocked and sturdy Beth had got the stout, red-faced man by the throat, while Rufus was pinioning his arms. "It's you, is it, Ben Frowloy ?'J shouted Beth. "Just, out o' Dannemore Jail for oue offense, au' now you're <iualifyin' for another term, hay?

All of a sudden wo heard the voice of Polly behind us "1 knowed the critter moved its head!" said she "Didn't I tell ye bo, Mis' ArdeiiV" And that was the last time ' ever allowed myself to be left alone in Raquette House. "Not that I'm afraid," said T, "but ?but every one knows that discretion is the better part of valor."?Saturday Night. - An JRxpwnire Matron t. Tlio peculiar will case of the late millionaire, Thomas Lyncsh, of Chicago," 111., is iu a fair way to solution. There were two wills. One of the sous was disinherited, and his portion was left to provide au annuity for "an old friend," Mrs. Belle B. Hill. The first pliaso of the case was easily explained. Two wills were left, in order that thero would be no possibility of a contest. The reason for the disinheritance of oue of the sons in at baud. The first wife of Thomas Lynch died many years ape. About three yeftrs since Mr. Lynch met a young woman with whom he fell desperately in love, and despite the strenuous objections of his sons married her. This destroyed the entente cordiale between the father aud his boys, and there were rumors that oventually culminated in a scandal that shocked the residents of Burton place. Ono night shortly after the marriage some of the boys returned home earlioi than usual. Their father was detained in the city and the young wife was alone with the servants in tlxo Lynch residence at Burton place. The boys were feeling angrier than usual, and the sight of the pretty face of the girl-wife caused them to commit an act that proved the sensation of the town. Thomas seized a pair of shears and in a minute had sepurted the pretty curls lrom his father's wife's head.
