Have we lost Willie Waldorf Aston
forever from his own native land? We
fear we have, since Willie Waldorf
has bought Cl.veden, one of the
ancestral seats of the Duke of West
minister. The head of the Aston
family is now a Britisher. The only
thing lacking to perfect felicity is a
title. Il used to be that rich citizens
could buy that, too, nut those happy
days are past. The only hope for
Willie Waldorf is that some lucky
accident OF scheme may bring him to
the favorable notice of Queen Victoria
or the Prince of Wales. We do not
know what his title should be, but we
can tell the coatof arms. Let it be a
coonskin rampant, tackled upon the
gable OF a log ca0in to dry.

race OF religion constitutes the ques-
ton at issue.

One regrets to learn at last of the
failure of the cooperative housekeep-
ing experiment at Philadelphia. 1t
failed through the apparent impossi-
bility of finding anybody who was
capable of managing the kitchen part.
Nevertheless nothing is more certain
than that cooperative housekeeping
will be eventually successful. The
cooperative kitchen and laundry,
with trained graduates from house
keeping schools to manage them, will
in time dissolve away all the present
difficulties of housekeeping.

places $1,000. tons. The big French
cruiser, Jean Bart, possesses 1886
horse power, a trife more than the
Great Eastern; the Campania has 3O,-

Campania is simply a passenger car

largest and s%peediest ship afloat. The
so-called commerce destroyer" in the,
war class will need to practice run
ming a long time before they are able.
to get near enough to the Oampania
to cause her much anxiety.
The Campania is propelled by twin
screws driven by two complete sets of
engines, each fitted with five cylin-
ders. Steam is generated by - boil
ers, and 96 furnaces, which consume
400 tons of coala day. The Companies
