Her Serene Majesty Wilhelmina
Helene Pauline Marie, Queen of the
Netherlands, is now charming young
girl of fourteen, whose life so far has
been as unclouded and happy as
though no cares of state were hang
ing over her head for the future. Her
life is very simple. She rises at Z,
goes the first thing to say good morn
ing to her mother, and then at has
her breakfast, after which for three
hours she is busy with her lessons and
masters. Her first governess until
she was four years old was French
woman, Mile. Liotard, who was then
replaced by the Queens English
governess, Miss Winter, who has been
with her ever since. Queen Wilhel-
nina is very bright and clever, and
studies hard so as to learn everything
that the ruler of a kingdom shoald
know. s. ....lt

In answer to the question of 'sWhat
is your ideal of wife?' a young man
wrote the following: "She must be
several years younger than her hus-
band, and must have love of dress,
with just enough common sense to
keep that love within the bounds of
her husbands income. She need not
be beautiful, but with the love of
dress she will be neat, and with the
common sense mentioned she will be
able to manage herself, and therefore
to manage a house. She should be
jealous of her husband, because jeal-
ousy never goes without love; and. as
for education, that makes no differ
ence SO long as she can speak good
English. The above-described wo-
man, with slight seasoning of tenn
per and good manners, is my ideal of
a WIFE" " Z e-s - ...-t4.-I

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1895-09-19

Element in Maine to the largest capital
in Europe, tea is everywhere a daily
beverage. Whether it comes by cara
van across Siberia or by boat around
the Horn and the Cape of Good Hope,
it is as much a necessity as bread. Years
ago Woh Qua. who had worked himself
up in the firm with which he was con-
nected. looked ahead fifty years and
saw the vast possibilities of the bust
ness. Every canton and district was
mapped out in his mind as accurately
as ever was the field whereon hostile
armies were to meet
He knew not only the state of the
crops but how they could be transport
ed to the different markets. He was an
Invaluable man. From a Junior part
ner he assumed control. He was shrewd
and soon found himself in possession
and control of the business, which for
years was unrivalled anywhere. Every
agent paid him a commission. Every
pound Of tea grown in the celestial en-
pire has sooner Or later to come to him
or his agents. It is a wonderful scheme.

The assertion that the corn crops of
Missouri, Kansas, Illinois and Texas
alone will give ], 100000 carloads of sur
plus for shipment is made on good au-
thority. and as the wheat crop of the
West is also large it is evident that the
good fortune of the agricultural States
this year will be shared by the rail
roads, and, the holders of their securi-
ties. Three good crop years in sue
cession would do more to take the
Western roads out Of the hands Of re-
ceivers than any possible amount of
inanciering. A single crop such as that
of this year is likely to prove will put
them in good shape for the future
and it will be their own fault
if the future is not as satisfactory as
it ought to be. What they chiefly need
in the widest possible distribution of all
commodities from the point of produc
ton to the points of demand. When
ever Western roads begin to give the
people Of the East the largest possible
amount of breadstuffs and provisions
for the least possible freight rates con-
sistent with a fair profit they will in
augurate a new economic era charac,
>terized by satisfactory relations be-
tween West and East and by increas-
ing profits to themselves as the connect
ing links between the producers and
consumers of the two sections. The i'm
provement in iron and other metals, the
marked prosperity of the textile indus
try. and the probability of greatly in
creased activity in the railroad carry
ing trade give the country all it could
ask in the way of business prospects.

Teething and Its Perils

The period of dentition is nearly al
ways one of anxiety to the parent. 1t
certainly is not always without peril to
the infant
The age Of infancy is characterized by
changes which are not only numerous,
but in many instances, at least too
rapid for the constitution of the little
one. The various organs are in state
of growth and development, circum-
stance which in itself is sufficient rea-
son for the peculiar susceptibility OF
infants to disease.
But more than all, the brain. and in
fact, the whole nervous system, is influ-
enced by a multitude of impressions
from without and within, which, in the
child's undeveloped state, are often
overpowering. More especially is this
the case when the sensitiveness is
heightened by the irritation caused by
the process of teething.
Under these circumstances the child
becomes peevish and restless upon the
slightest provocation. The general few.
erishness of the body, be it ever so
slight, decreases proportionately its
ability to withstand external infu.
ences.
The intestinal canal, upon which ma
ture relies chiefly at this period of ac-
tive growth, becomes torpid, and the
bowels are constipated.
We can do much toward relieving the
child from the besetting danger of this
period, however, by taking a hint from
nature and maintaining a salutary
looseness Of the bowels, which will act
as wastegate, protecting the nervous
centers and the various important or
gans Of the body from harm.
This, together with frequent wash
ings Of the mouth with cold water, is
sufficient to ward off many an attack of
serious illness which would otherwise
come as result of the general irrita-
ton excited by the process of teeth
ing.
We should never endeavor to hasten
matters by incising the gums. This is
an eXpedient which should be resorted
to by physicians only.

With an Eve to Business.

A well-known missionary had occa-
sion to give description of his foreign

AS is usual in such addresses, he
wound up with an earnest appeal TO.
contributions, however small, anei
thinking of his wide-mouthed listenei,
he added that even children might give
their mite.
When the meeting was over, the boy
mounted the platform and going for
ward to the lecturer, said:

ested in your lecture, and-and-''
Here he hesitated.

sionary. you want to help in the

The attempt of certain paper manu-
facturers to form trust strong enough
to control the trade is a matter of con
Germ to all publishers, but it still more
nearly concerns the public. AS a re
suit of great scientific discoveries anC
inventions education is becoming more
nearly universal in the United States
than it has ever been in history. The
advance from year to year has been sc
rapid that we have hardly realized
what great things the use of wood
pulp in paper-making is accomplish.
ing. AS long as rags alone were the
material for paper it was impossible
for the newspapers to reach the masses
The chemists who showed how to turn
Wood-pulp into paper showed how tc
get lifelong daily education down tc
the very pOOreSt-to those who have
ten years it has been getting there will
results which are too recent and toe
great to be realized in this generate
The attempt of certain paper manufac
turerS to undo what has been done, tC
restrict the production of paper, tc
bring back the old conditions, to take
the benefit of the discovery of wood
pulp away from the public that they
themselves may monopolize it, is con
spiracy against the dissemination OF
knowledge. The paper trust will find
it losing business. Progress never
goes backward. Cheap paper is a ne
cessity of universal education, and nc
paper trust will succeed in stopping
the advance of civilization.

Guerrita, "the famous Spanish bull
fighter" who wishes to give an exhibit
ton at Atlanta, is not wanted in the
United States. 1t is explained by some
that he would not be allowed to hurt
the BULL" but if he were not the alleged
fight would be humbug-a catch
penny fraud Of the worst kind. If we
are to have any sort of bull-fight let us
have genuine one for our money.
But we want none at all. This Is the

pie of Georgia are Americans, not bull
fighting barbarians.

The statue to Burns Highland Mary
is to be erected at Dunoon. More than
a hundred years ago Burns fiirted with
Mary Campbell, to whom he was faith
less. for he was already married to
Jean Armour. However, he wrote beau
tiful verses about his Highland Mary
hence the statue. 1t is one Of the para
doXes of human nature that this mon
ument celebrates not the woman, who
would have remained obscure had she
never met Burns, but the poet who
amused himself with Irritation and
with writing verses about it.

Profit in Walnuts.

The large profits that have been made
from Walnuts in southern California
during the last couple Of years have
turned the attention Of many horticul-
turists in this direction, and there is
likely to be large increase in the area
of walnut orchards during the next
few years.
The walnut finds it's most congenial
habitation in soil that is deep, rich
and naturally moist, and where only
slight frosts occur. Under such cir
cumstances the trees attain large size,
and hence It is essential that they be
allowed an abundance of space. They
are planted from forty to sixty feet
apart and for several years during
their early stages an abundance OF
room is left, which is profitably devoted
to the cultivation of annual crops of
various kinds. At maturity the trees
yield as high as 800 to 1000 pounds
each, while the prices vary from to 9
cents pound, making a full-bearing
walnut grove a particularly desirable
piece of property.-Los Angeles Times.
