The strike of the Philadelphia street
car employees is becoming something of
a chestnut. The strike is off one day and
on the next, according to the reports. If
it would only stay for while either off
or on. so that people could tell where they
were at" it might be advantageous to
both sides to the controversy.

1t transpires that there is also Mrs

POPE AND EMPEROR.

\ t>~A~A
.o!co1, After !AuHtcritz.
AS to the pope, the question was very
knotty. Plus was in d curious frame OF
mind. lie had gone to the coronation,
it will be remembered, without condi-
tiors, hoping to secure his end by the
exercise of his personal Influence. He
had returned With empty bands though
partly under the Fascination OF Napo-
leon; but removed from he cmpcror's
presence, he had become disposed to
self-asscItion. Jerome Ronurarte re-
turned in 1906 to France, and !,rofessed
repentance for his american marriage.
Although Napoleon had asked the SOY
creign pontilf to pronounce Il divorce,
the request had been firmly refused.
Throughout the last campaign the
pope had asserted his absolute neutral
ity and had given no cause for otfcnse.
But, nevertheless, as if in contempt for
the ponti1f's claims Of fcudal suzerainty,
Bcrnadottc was made prince OF Ponto
Corvo and Talleyranel prince OF Rcnc-
ventum; the French soldiers seized and
held Ancona on the plea that its sover-
cign was not strong enough to main
tain it against the English and Turks
| (heretic. and pagans); and immedl-
ately after, the cap-stcnc of impcrious-
ness wns added by orders to close the
Roman ports to all enemies Of France.
The pope was plainly to be regarded
as having no longer any politics; he
was, to be sure. the sovereign OF Rome
but Napoleon, as the inheritor OF
Charles the Great, on whose enlarge
mcnt and confirmation of Fepin's gift
the popc's temporal power rested, was
it's emperor, and would protect Il
against the world \ chronicler of thu
times declares that the victor Of Auster
litz had actually in mind the project o
being crowned western emperor in st

learned that the cardinals would rathe
suffer death than such disgrace
Whether or not this be true, he dc
manded recognition as emperor O
Rome, and exacted the expulsion 0
Russians, English and Sardinians fro1
F the papal states. The pope peade'
that for The emperor Of the French to b
recognized as Roman emperor woul
destroy the papal power in all othe
lands, and obtained respite OF tw
years by dismissing from his office a

HOUSE FURNISHING.
Small Things to Make the Furniture Look

The woman of small means and es-
thetic tastes who grows restless under
her pecuniary limitations, especially III
the direction of house furnishing, may
at least comfort herself with the re-
hccton that she can now achieve re-
suits which few years ago would have
been possible only to plethoric purse.
For instance, a worn and shabby sofa
may renew, and often greatly increase,
it's youthful charm by the addition of
a Bagd:d cover and a pile OF cushions
which give a lnxuriously eastern effect
at a comparatively small cost. The
Bugdad may cost anywhere from two
dollars up. For ten dollars a very hand
some one alike on both sides may be
bought Then, almost every house
keeper has at least one unused feather
bed up in the garrct which she can
turn into a goodly array Of big square
cushions, covered with sillsaline and
denim in shades harmonizing with tho
