HAS A CLEVER MOTHER.
why Prince Ferd inand Is \ BILE to Pay
His Own Way.

-t Princess Clcnentine, mother of Prince
Ferdinand OF Bulgaria, is undoubtedly the
most astute aud clever OF all the children
of King Louis Philippe Of France. She is,
says the San Francisco Chronicle, the only
woman who can boast OF having downet
Prince Bismarck a. his own game aud is
renowned throughout the length and breadth
of Europe for her statecraft. her diplomacy
and for her political prescience and sa-
gacity. To her more than anybody else is
due the wonderful progress and present
prosperity of Bulgaria, and il Prince Fer
dinand alone among all the old world
ereigus has been able to dispense with n
civil list and TO pay out Of his own pocket
the greater part OF the expenses of his really
luxurious and srandly appointed court it
is due to the munficence OF his mother.
Princess Clementine is the youngest Of
Louis Philippe four daughters. Her mother
in one OF her letters spoke of her as lively
and impctuous. good deal OF this remains
But she commands her tongue as though sha
were an old statesman, and if her iinpulsea
remain still qIick they never hurry her into
rashness- She has light bluist-gray eye,
and her face il u beaming one, which is nos
characteristic often found associated
with strongly hooked nose. In her casa
the hook is not long at the base but that

voice, and this in spite of deafness so great

and write in English. German. and Hunga-

devoted herself with success TO music, and
especially to the harp.

her junior. Her wealth is enormous. like
that OF all the children OF King Louis Phil
ippe. AT her death her fortune will lie
divided between her children. the principal
share going to her two sons. Prince Fcr,ii-
Dand. who is the youngest, and Duke Philip
or Coburg. who married the King of Bel
GUMS eldest daughter, and who was with
his brother-iD-law, the late Crown Prince

I'VE are pegectlng spelling, and are doing pu-

company IT. this city told me that he had to dis
charge four stenographers accurate In their short
hand work. but who spelled so wretchedly that he
was ashamed 20 SIND their typewriter letters to
other business firms. 1t consumed too much time
to correct these errors, and he simply had TO keep
changing until he secured one who could spell

day by the head OF Main street business mouse

was simply amazed at the spelling In the letters
which they wrote back to the house Eight out OF
the twelve could write three lines without IN
correctly spelling as many words and the remain

some OF these young men had taken a commercial
course. wrote an excellent hand and were pushlns

Professor Riley head OF the Government En-

ded here this week by Secretary Lelong Of the
Horticultural Board. and others. Riley came to
California to attend the National Pathological
Convention at Sacramento. AS side issue he
tried to secure the abolition of the State Board
Of Horticulture because Lelong was responsible
for the action of Secretary Morton in giving
Riley a vacation which may be permanent. The
trouble grew out Of the introduction of the AUS
traan lady-bug to clear the red ants and black
scale from California orange groves and orchards.
This bug first suggested to Lelong by j.
Debarth Shorb, Of Pasadena and Lelong secured
from Riley the services Of NJ. Koebee to invesu-
gate the lady-bug. 1t proven "A great pest-de-
stroyer and has saved thousands OF acres OF
orange trees. Riley tried to claim the credit for
originating the idea. but Leong sent on proofs

Then Riley started West for revenge and he

The new Southern Pacific freight rates on

This increase will be added to the price OF the
wine by California dealers but 1t will give
with large stocks at the East a decided advan-
tage, for they cut the rate to gain trade
and still make the old profit. The result VIII
probably be revival OF shipment OF wines

The Greatest of Dangers.

think it lies in the belief and the DOS
sibility of platonic friendship with a
married man. A number of letters have
come to me written by unhappy girls who,
having been thrown, either through bust
ness or in a social way, with fascinating
men have yielded to the attraction, believed
in the possibility of such friendship, only
to discover that what was talked of as
friendship was in reality love- Nothing ex-
cuses you, my dear girl, for loving a man
whose heart, mind and body belong to an
other woman. 1t is true that too often
these undesirable friendships begin in the
most innocent way, but the very minute
that you find that this man is becoming a
necessity to your happiness you must stop
and at once.
The old story is told by the wicked man,
the oft told story of an unsympathetic wife
"a wife that is not companionable, wife
given over to domestic affairs-with, as a
natural sequence, the oft told story that
you bring little light into his life, that
you make little happiness, and that you
are the only woman who ever thoroughly
understood him. This is an old story,
and yet 1t Is one to which too many women
listen. My dear girl, look the matter
straight in the face. No matter how bad
mans wife may be- no matter how he
may long for companionship, you are do
ing an absolute wrong by even listening to
his story.-Ruth Ashmore in Ladies' Home
Journal
