THE HOUSEHOLD DECORATIVE NOVELTIES. Ingenious Conveniences nnrt Fashionable Ornamentation for the Home. The "Tuckaway table" is a very useful little affair that every one will like. It is an English invention that folds np when out of use, after the style of a camp stool, but it is so arranged that it still stands on its own legs, and is not dependent on the wall for support. An "Ivory" room or hall is very fashion able. White enameling has been in vogue for some time, but the new tint is more creamy. The old ivory Japanese paper is used for panels, jambs of mantel shelves and dados. Sometimes the floor is enam eled old ivory, and has rugs and small car pets of oriental make laid on. The' old fashioned hinged towel racks, similar in shape, only smaller, to the clothes horse, make admirable fire screens if covered with a full drapery of some oriental fabric. Paint a common wooden settee with railed back and arms with three coats of cream white, and rub it down to an even smooth surface. Stencil on the broad back piece a graceful pattern of flower fes toons and fluttering ribbons in plain gold. Fill the seat with a cushion of oriental silk, and the settee is a thing of beauty and a joy for a long time. A pretty way of utilizing photographs and the loose colored pictures that come in many of the popular publications is to place a border of tho same about two feet wide around the bedroom or sanctum just above the wainscot, framing them in with cheap flat molding.. There is a thick quality of matting known as Japanese matting which can be obtained in a variety of colors. It 1s used for dado and wall coverings, and may be placed on floors that are not subject to hard usage. Olives and grass tints are the best wearing colors, and can be easily kept clean by washing them in clear cold water every week. The foregoing are among novelties noted by Tho Decorator and Furnisher. Carpet Fashions. In this Renaissance revival curtain fash lons are French and furniture fashions are French and English, but carpet fashions are largely American. According to the New York Recorder, American body Brus sels have driven the English makes over seas. American ingrains have won equal ly decisive victories, and American Wil tons, as a matter of course, have routed the columns against them, seeing that Wilton carpets are body Brussels with the loops cut to make a rich and luxurious pila The soft, bright Renaissance colors make charming summer rooms—the blues, the grays and the pale greens blending deli cately with the white and gold of the fur niton, A favorite ground color is a pale salmon with an all over pattern in pink and gray. Deep blue grounds and bright blues have never been seen in such numbers, the ef fect of the rayed disks shown upon them In gold and pink being, to unaccustomed eyes, somewhat startling. Maidenhair fern designs In gray green are noticeable upon cream grounds, often outlined with gold. The orchid is brought in more promi nently than in any past season, the de signer who spreads it beneath our feet in mauve and again in pink or in bronzy greens ignoring any possible objection on the score of sentiment to treading upon such weird and fragile flowers. A Useful Thing-. Keys have a provoking way of falling upon the floor or of being mislaid, but if one is provided with a bright colored hold er to catch tbe eye, after the fashion of that shown in the cut, it can hardly go astray. -t-MttMMtk KEY AND HOLDER. This bolder is in mocreme or knotted silk cord in some gay color, finished off "with a heavy tassel. It is easily made and smartens up a valuable casket or cabinet. Frosting for Cake. Gelatine frosting may be made with one teaspoonful of gelatine dissolved in two table-spoonfuls of boiling water, with pul verized sugar to make it of a consistency to spread. Put on the frosting while the cake is still warm aud set it in a cool place to dry. Quick frosting is made with the white of one egg, beaten only till it begin!" to froth. Stir in one cupful of powdered sugar and spread on the cake before it sets. Tbe frosting will dry in a very short time. Household Lore. In warming platters or dishes to receive hot food take care that no dish becomes very hot. It cracks the glazing, so that everything greasy, meats, butter, etc, will soon penetrate beneath the glazing into the clayey, porous interior and turn the exte rior dingy and brown. To toughen glassware put it Into a kettle, cover entirely with cold water, and place the kettle on a part of the stove where it will soon come to a boil. Allow it to boil briskly a few seconds, then cover closely, set aside and allow it to cool gradually. Frying pans of polished iron that become may be readily brightened with a little boiling vinegar and salt, after which they should be thoroughly scoured with soap and dried near the fire. To prevent iron from rusting daring the warm, damp weather is difficult. The Metal Worker says if tbe iron is covered with a thin coat of boiled linseed oil the oil will soon dry and form a covering which can be removed with turpentine when re quired. This keeps off the moisture which causes rust. Try it on stoves this summer. Do not risk the contents of a can of fruit by using worn out rubber rings. Elastic ity may be in part restored Uo rings that have been used by letting them lie for a time in two parts of water to one part ammonia. A Sure Cure for the Liquor or Opium Habits.

A FAMOUS PLAINSMAN. rtae First Man to Cross the Flalaa with the Pony Kxpress. [Rpo»,ial Correspoiidonce.l Abilene, Kan., May s.—Living quietly on bis farm near Lexington, Mo., stout, Bturdy and hale and hearty, Mr. 8. T. Ran nabarger enjoys without ostentation tho honor of having i>een the first man to cross the plains from Fort Leavenworth, Kan., to Salt Lake City as a government inati carrier and express agent. In 1857 he was employed as driver, hauling supplies from Leavenworth to Santa Fe, N. M. His em ployers one day sent him out iv charge of a train bound for California. Arrived at S. T. RANNABARGER. it _ t» 1 L-l 1. *I. „ . .V. . the Rocky mountains, ho found that the Mormons had destroyed nine trains, con fiscated part of the goods and burned the remainder. Rannabarger suffered also from the persecutions, and was compelled to give np his attempt. General Albert Sidnej Johnston, then in command of the mountain division, sent him through on horseback with dispatches for Brigham Young. Arriving at Salt Lake he was held a prisoner, and was only released when Johnston retaliated on the Mor mons. Johnston then wished to send dispatches to. Washington, and upon Hannabarger's return deputed him to carry them to Leav enworth. This he did, making the perilous trip from Fort Bridger, 118 miles east of Salt Lake, over mountuin and plain, en tirely alone. His report of the trip to his principals caused them to conceive the idea of a pony express, and when they offered Rannabarger the position of messenger, to make regular trips between Fort Leaven worth and Salt Lake City, he accepted the proposition. The contractors who had undertaken to deliver the United States mail added this to Rannabarger's duties, paying him $65.50 a month in addition to the five dollars a day received from the government, and de fraying all expenses. He rode a mule the first trip. He had a large saddle, which became a pillow by night. He carried two blankets, a pair of pistols, a bowie knife and a small leather pouch in which were the mail and express packages. When he had gone as far in a day as he and his mule could stand he would turn the animal out to graze, wrap himself in his blanket, pil low his head on his saddle and go to sleep. Sometimes it was too cold to sleep on the ground, in which case he rode all night and caught a nap in the sunlight of the follow ing morning. After the first trip arrangements were made for the exchange of mules at Platte City and Fort Laramie, and he was given the privilege, in case his animal gave out, of buying another at government expense. This he did but once. Often he spent a night in an Indian village, always keeping on friendly terms with the redskins. He made the first trip in twenty-two days, and on the return trip met the second man sent out by his employers. He rode regularly until July, 1858, seeing the successful estab lishment of the great pony express system from his small beginning of a year pre vious. After some further years of wandering on the frontier he finally settled down on a handsome section of Missouri land, where, surrounded by his family, he still resides. Charles Moreau Harger. A Jest That liecsme Earnest. The old saying that "a king's jester is like a dog in a lion's cage" was amply veri fied in the case of Peter the Great's famous court buffoon, Balakireff, who more than once took such liberties with his formid able master as would have cost any other man dear. On one occasion a cousin of the jester had incurred the czar's displeasure and had been sentenced to a severe punish ment, no one daring to show any interest in him save Balakireff himself, who at once made his appearance before the of fended czar to beg mercy for the culprit. The moment Peter saw the well known figure coming up the hall he guessed his errand, and called out fiercely, "It's no use, Balakireff; you need not waste your breath, for I vow, on my word of honor, that I will not grant what you are going to askl" Quick as thought the ready witted jester threw himself at the emperor's feet aud said in an imploring tone, "I beseech you, Piotr Alexeievitch (Peter, son of Alexis), do not pardon that rascal of a cousin of mine!" Angry as he was the czar laughed in spite of himself at this unlooked for turn ing of the tables, and remitted the culprit's sentence accordingly. Bnt not long after this it came to Balakireff's own turn to fall into disgrace, and Peter, in one of his char acteristic bursts of rage, fiercely bade the poor old jester "never to show his face on Russian soil again." But Balakireff's exile was not a long one, for barely a week later the czar, who was then in his newly built capital of St. Pe tersburg, saw from his palace window the banished man jogging coolly past in a cart filled with turf. "Hollo, you rascal," cried Peter, "did I not tell you never to show youjr face on Russian soil again?" "Nor have L" replied the wag, with an impish grin; 1 'this turf in my cart is Swedish soil, every bit of it, dug up on the other side of the Finland border.". Peter smiled grimly at the trick, but in another moment the black frown which few men could face unmoved darkened his massive features. "It may be Swedish soil now," said he sternly, "but it shall be Russian ere longl" And only a few months later a fresh stride in Peter's career of conquest made good the pledge. David Ker He's Little but Powerful. At the age of eight years the crown prince of Germany shows all the charac teristics of a military disciplinarian. One day recently when entering the palace at Berlin the guard was turned out in his honor, and he noticed that one of the sol diers had omitted to bring his rifle. The prince promply caused the delinquent to be punished for his breach of discipline. E. FLEUR, Wholesale Wine and Liquor Merchant, 404 and 406 N. Los Angeles St. Telephone 224.
