jAJTIQUE FURNITURE AGAIN.
Bedroom Coffers of the Middle ▲gee
▲re in Use Among the
Fashionables.
_- >
The feminine world is again taking to
the use of stately and artistic coffers or
chests, reports the Washington Star.
The dames of the middle ages, who
had no convenient bureaus in which to
store their finery, were dependent upon
the coffer. Some of these historic chests
are marvels of delicate carving, inlay
work and painting. The greatest artists
of Italy did not disdain to decorate these
receptacles.
So valuable were some of the coffers
that a great lady was considered well
dowered if she received one on her mar
riage day. It was placed in her cham
ber, with the great bedstead and a stool
or two, which were the sole furnishings.
Toward the close of the eighteenth cen
tury coffers were all but discarded. Un
til recently specimens were to be found
only in the museums or old castles and
manor houses of Europe.
Now the taste for antique furniture
is bringing the coffers again Into favor.
Two seen recently were made for the
state rooms of yachts. They are both
carved and tinted.
One chest Is built of weathered oak,
deeply carved and then stained in greea
and red. The design represents mer
maids sporting In the midst of an ocean
forest Seaweeds and shells are the mast
conspicuous features In the picture.
The other coffer Is of oak, having a
gray finish. It Is decorated with a burnt
design. Green and mauve stains are
used to touch up the figures. The sub
ject of these decorations le a scene at
the court of King Neptune.
Bedroom coffers are usually adorned
with flowers, birds, butterflies or some
allegorical or mythological scene. One
small boudoir chest has representations
of Penelope among her maidens upon its
nanels. Through onen windows the
sprays of the climbing roses are blown
into the room and the flowers with ths
garments of the women are brilliantly
colored.
Scriptural subjects were painted on
some of the antique chests, and these
have been well imitated by modern
workmen. The painted panel is set deep
in the wood and framed by a wide band
of molding. Carved figures, supporting
the corners, and elaborately designed
lids are features of the painted chests.
The most ancient designs are ths
heavily carved ones. Those who ar#
versed in the history of furniture can
tell to a nicety the age of a chest by ths
style of carving and quality of the wood.
The earlier Renaissance specimens are
almost priceless, and even copies of
them are expensive. In appearance they
are not unlike a coffin. There is usually
a richly carved base, the long shallow
body above it being slightly curved. Ths
lid projects over the body, and is le3*
deeply cut than the sides.
A more modern Renaissance chest,
and a style which is more frequently
copied, is embellished with small panels,
on which appear conventionalized foli
age designs in line work. The shading
Is burnt into the wood.
Gilded and enameled coffers are also
to be seen, but they are eighteenth cen
tury work and represent the period of
decadence.
The modern household coffer Is usual
ly lined with silk or an art fabric. Plenty
of tiny pockets are scattered over ths
lining, and in these are placed sachet*
for perfuming the contents of the box.
The chests are convenient receptacles
for linen, bedclothes, draperies or gar
ments not in use.
Those who can afford a cedar chest
need have no fear of moths. Although
these ornamental boxes cost more thaa
trunks, they will last a lifetime. They
are distinctly decorative, and may be
made to fit any vacant niche in a small
room. The price varies with the style
of decoration and wood. Some are com
paratively inexpensive, while others,
good Imitations of the carved antique
chest or the gilded and enameled eight
eenth century masterpieces, are valued
as are most works of art.
HIS FIRST WATERSPOUT.
Qroen Sailor Boy Wanted to See One,
and He Was Quickly Ac
commodated.
A waterspout Is one of the first things
a green sailor boy wants to see. He has
read about it as one of the wonders of
the sea, and it rouses his keenest curi
osity. He gets the old sailors to promise
to call him when one is sighted. They
promise, winking stealthily at each oth
er, relates an exchange.
The ship gets down into tropical wa
ters, and the boy is told that a water
spout may come along almost at any
time.
One night he is awakened suddenly.
Ad old sailor shakes him.
•'Come on! Hurry up, young feller
there’s a waterspout on the starboard
bow bearing right down on us."
The boy hastens up the companion
way without waiting to dreea. and as
he darts out on aecx ne is tnrown down
by a mass of water descending on him
liko a wet mountain. He struggles to
his feet, gasping, sputtering:
■■Wa-a-s that-t a wa-a-a-ter spout?"
The sailors are around him roaring.
Then he looks up above the companion
way and sees an empty hogshead. Having
seen and felt the waterspout, he descends
to his bunk, wipes himself dry and turns
in. Next time waterspouts in great num
bers may be reported on both bows, but
he will have no particular desire to ob
serve them.
Baby's Eyelashes.
Some mothers clip the baby’s eye
lashes to make them grow long. This
may be all right for the baby, but after
maturity has been reached it is perhaps
betetr to rub a little pure ointment or
plain vaseline into the lashes rathe*
than to clip the ends.—Msdlcal Tails.

BRlHT’S DIS IS I
I Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping “it will wear away,” are I
I drifting towards Bright’s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. 9
FOLEYSKIDNEYCU *e
I stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues 9
■ of the kidneys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out 9
9 ■ the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. _ Diseased kidneys do not, and 9
9 the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body, 9
9 causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. 9
9 If you have any signs of Kidney or Bladder Trouble commence taking FOLEY’S i9
9 KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a 9
9 fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system. 9
How to Find Out.
You can easily determine if your kidneys are
out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a
bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If
upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has
a brick-dust sediment or small particles float
about in it, vour kidneys are diseased, and
FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE should be takea
at once.
G. B. Burhans Testifies After Four Toars.
G. B. Burhans of Carlisle Center, N. Y., writes:
"About four years ago I wrote you stating that I had been entirety
cured of a severe kidney trouble by taking less than two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick-dust sediment and
pain and symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. I am glad to say that
I have never had a return of any of those symptoms during the four
years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and
heartily recommend Foley’s Kidney Cure to any one suffering from
kidney or bladder trouble. ’
