One begins TO encounter the gourd as
domestic utensil about 100 miles south of
Mason and Dixon's line, where the local
pronunciation is something like goord.
The dipper and soapdish made from the
gourd go along with the old wellsweep and
the plantation dwelling with separate
Quarters" A skillful negro can fashion
marvelously graceful and convenient uten-
sils from the gourd. The dipper is the
simplest of all. For it the manufacturer
chooses a gourd with round body and
natural handle. A disk is cut from the
body, the meat is taken from the gourd,
the shell is carefully dried, and you have
a dipper that will last for m onths, perhaps
for years. Spoons of excellent shape and
durability may be made from the gourd.

The Palmieri Family.

poetical legend derives the name of

When the Emperor had defeated Berenger
~, Pope Agabetus II sent him a palm

fayorite to carry before him, so that all
the world should see how the Pope had
honored him. The youth came to be called

adopted the appellatiOn as his name
Afterward the emperor gave him a castle,
and his grandson, being handsome and OF

daughter of rich noble, one Latino, the
Lord If Rasoio. Thus the Palmieri be-
came, according to the old legend, very
powerful and possessed of much wealth.

vened by Frederick William ~. This
diet was a feeble body. with the power
only to advise and petition, but it
proved the precursor of German unity
and PruSSian kaiser. BiSmarck's part
In its proceedings showed him to be
staunch and unyielding royalist, and,
though he speedily became one of the
valued advisers of the king, he warmly
denounced what he termed the latter's
weak and ill-timed liberalism in the
shape of a written constitution. He was
chosen member of the parliament
convened in 1913 to revise and sanction
this constitution, and in its delibera-
tons resisted all attempts to en-
croach upon the powers of the
crown or reduce the strength of
the army. Already he foresaw that
in strong monarch and well-drilled
army lay the future hope of Prussia and
Germany, and when, in April. 1919,
Frederick William refused the sha tow
OF an imperial crown offered HIM by the
frankfort parliament, he found yigor-
Gus defender i'll Bismarck. Bismarck
believed that a union Of the northern
German states under Prussia must pre-
cede any permanent union of all the
states, but even the north was still un-
prepared for such union, and it was be-
cause he saw this and knew the tenn
porary weakness of the Prussian army
that he defended the abandonment of
the Erfurt constitution IN the confer
ence at OlmutZ (November, 1850, and
PruSSla'S acquleScence in the revival of
the old Germanic diet under the presi-
dency of Austria. Curiously enough,
his advocacy of the arrangement made
at OimutZ caused him of all men to be
commonly regarded as an admirer of
Austria and believer in the old diet,
and it was on these very grounds that
Frederick William. who desired to re-
duce the tension between Vienna and
Berlin, sent him to Frankfort as secre-
tary to the Prussian member of the
representative assembly of German soy
ereignS.
Bismarck devoted all his splendid abili-
ties to extending and fortifylng the in
fuence of Prussia in that body; dex-
trouSly turned to her profit the solution
Of the SchleSwig- Holstein problem, and
Skillfully and thoroughly prepared for
the downfall and overthrow of the
power of the Hapsburgs in Germany.
No member of the diet could compare
with him in ability, and he overmatched
them all. During the Crimean war
Prussia, at the instance or Bismarck,
held aloof, but by so doing she retained
the good will of Russia, soon to prove of
the greatest value to her, and also pre-
vented Austria from interfering with a
reconstruction of the PruSsian Zollver-
Elm, which gave Prussia the commercial
leadership of all Germany.
In January, 1851. Bismarck became
PruSSian minister at st. Petersburg,
but he was recalled to Berlin in Sep

leave his side. The dogs look up in his
eyes, seem to seek in his glance an order
or warning, and lean up against him
for mute caress. The little Rantzaus
are bright, intelligent, healthy, active
boys, the pride and joy OF their grand
father. He has superintendent and di-
rected their education as well as their
instructors, and beyond the admirable
early training in force in Germany, he
has been most particular to include
such lessons of courtesy, politeness and
difference as make them attractive to
his guests as we'll as himself. With
him they are perfectly fearless. To
them the man of iron unbends. At
Friedrichsruhe he is the kind husband,
the lndulgent father, the genia! host.
He is gay, amusing, boyish even n his
conversation, and laughs heartily at the
memory of some youthful frOlic.
Prince Bismarck's health has been
failing for more than year, and before
he went to Kissingen this summer he
had grown very feeble. The attack
from which he is now suffering was no
surprise to those acquainted with his
real condition. Should he recover from
it. it is sure to be followed by others.
The days of the man of blood and iron
are numbered. But he can face death
with calmness and fortitude, for he has
long been firm believer in Christian
ity. eff l were not Christian" he
wrote in the midst of the Franco-Ger-
man war, ~ would not serve the king
another hour. Why should necessarily
worry myself and labor in this world,
exposing myself to embarras sments

not feel bound to do my duty on behalf

ordinance which has destined this
German nation to become good and
great, had never taken to the Giplo-

after death. Deprive me of this faith,
and you rob me of my fatherland. Were
l not a staunch Christian. did l not
stand upon the miraculous bases of re-
ligion, you would never have possessed

Sustained by faith so simple, yet so
all-sufficient, Bismarck now faces death
as calmly and bravely as he had faced
every other great crisis of his life. The
.ceming of the grim messenger will not
find him unprepared.

ancient masterpiece. One hardly knows
whether to be glad or sorry that it was
not placed on exhibition at the worlds
fair. Surrounded, as it must have been
there, by other works that might have
distracted some of the attention that it
deserves, the conviction is yet irresisti-
BILE that it is masterful enough to have
maintained its pre-eminence in any
artistic company.
1t was the sculptor's intention to have
it exhibited at the exposition, and he
shipped it to this country for that pur-
pose. But it arrived too late and for
some time lay hidden away in a New
York warehouse. Now, however, it has
been placed on exhibition, and the peo-
pie of the metropolis have an oppor-
tunity to see what genius can do with a
block of white marble.
There is story behind the statue that
ought to be true. 1t is said that King
Christian, accompanied by his son-in-
law, the czar of Russia, paid visit to
Didericksen's studio while the artist
was putting the finishing touches to the
group, and that the car was so forciDly
struck by the suggestiyeness of the
subject and its spirited treatment that
he wished the work destroyed King
Christian could not accommodate so far
as that, but he secured the sculptor's
promise to send the group to France Or
the United States, where it was sup
posed its influence would be less hurtful
to monarchial institutions.

was while connected with the latter that
he secured his first and proudest decor
alton. One June morning in 1912, while
his regiment was stationed for the sum-
mer manmuVreS at Liphehue, Bismarck
and several officers were walking near
the river. AS they started across the
bridge Bismarck saw his hOstler, Hide
brandt, enter the water from one side
OH his horse. The river was swift. and
to the dismay of the officers the horse
lost his footing and threw his rider.
The man began to sink at once. Bis
marck, seeing his peril, dotted his coat.
sword and cap and Jumped into the
water, graSping his servant. The man,
however, insane from fright, caught
hold of the future prince and prevented
him from moving his arms. A struggle
followed. Bismarck, finding it impossi-
bic to loosen the death-grip while the
man was above water, finally dived
with him, and thus forced him to give
up his hold upon his arms. The officers
Oh the bridge were certain that both
men had been drowned, when Bismarck
again rose to the surface of the water,
with his hostler unconscious in his
arms. Being good swimmer, and pos
Bessing in those days the strength of
Hercules, ne soon carried his burden to
the shore. His brave deed was reward
cd with the medal for saving life. For
years and years after Bismarck bad be-
come the most powerful statesman in
Europe, with the title of prince, with
decorations and orders fIom every SOW
ereIgn on the continent, he wore the
medal alone on his breast upon all state
occasions.
In 1847 Bismarck tired of bachelor
hood and resolved to marry. 81 must
marry, the devil take me-" he writes.
IL feel lonely and forsaken, and this
wild, damp weather makes me melan-
chOly and lOngingly prone to love-"
One of his neighbors and friends was
MoritZ Won BlankenDurg, and in the
latter's house he made the acquaint-
Rnce of Johanna Won Putkammer, which
journey which the two made in COM
pany with their common friends ripened
TO deep and lasting affection. The
young ladY's parents were very quiet
and deeply religious persons, and when
Bismarck wrote to ask their daughters
hand. and she confessed she had given
him her heart, their CONSERVATION was
great. The father confessed that "he
felt as if he had been struck on the
head with an AK" but he did
wishes of the young people. The
mother was more obdurate, and it
was only when Bismarck appeared to
plead his own cause that she granted
her consent. But having yielded, she
did so frankly and without reserve. She
welcomed her future son-in-law not only
to her home but to her heart, and he
proved himself thoroughly worthy Of
her confidence. He became real men,
Der of the family, and the first serious
difference which he had with the parents
