Practically every boat that is set afloat, whatever she may be, big or lit- tle, is individually measured through- out for her cushions. The same materi- als for stuffing cushions that are used on land are used on the water—hair, moss, cotton anc so on—and ship cush- ions are sometimes stuffed with cork clippings for their buoyant properties. The materials most commonly used in covering church cushians are damasks and reps, the damasks more generally. The material most commonly used in covering ship cushions is mohair plush, which is made in yarious colors and qualities. Leather is also used in cover- ing ship cushions, especially in smok- ing rooms and chartrooms and aboard yachts, and it costs little, if any, more than a fine quality of mohair plush.— New York Sun.

uous in the summer season than the awning,’’ said Mr. Biffleton. ‘In none | is our progress in civilization more ap- parent. Awning stripes are made now- adays in a great variety of styles and in various colors and shades of color. It is quite possible to get an awning to mateh a building, or one that shall contrast with it agreeably. I have seen lately a large brownstone building equipped With awnings having alternate stripes | in two shades of brown, shading admi- rably with the stone, the whole produc- ing a massive, harmonious and pleasing effect. I bave seen buildings of light colored bricks with light stone or terra cotta trimmings equipped with awnings in stripes of darker colors and of some- “hat fanciful design as to the width and grouping of the stripes, giving an effect somewhat striking perhaps, but decidedly picturesque.
“The fact is that in the hands of a competent person the awning may now easily be made a great embeilishment of the building, and properly put up, as indeed most of them are nowadays, it becomes a thing of beauty and a joy, if not forever, at least for the summer months. ’’—Exchange.
It is reported that tte Japanese govern- ment is seriously embarrassed financially. Civilization has necessitated increased expenditures in every direction, particularly in building railroads, telegraph lines, new government buildings, improving harbors, | and strengthening the army and navy. | The treasury was not directly benefitted by the big war indemnity paid by China, because it has been kept in England to pay for uew warships and armament.
