France is called the cradle of good
cooking, but Athens was the home Of

Empress Josephine ate most of her
meals in her owM apartment and re-
warded the cook who prepared them

THE DIAMOND JUBILEE.
Personality of shs Little Lady in
Black ~ Paramount.

| Black ~ Paramount.
London, June 23.--All London
is congratulating itself over tho
complete success of yesterda Us
splendid pageant and is receiving
with satisfaction evidence that
the historic tableau presented at
st. Paul's commands the sym pa
thetic attention of all nations.
With all the painstaking effort
that was made to convert it into an
imperial fete, with Colonial Prime
Ministers as conspicuous figures,
the personality Of the little lady
in black, with gray hair and gra-
cious smile, alone possesses mag
netic qualities and commands the
homage Of her subjects and the
respect of foreign nations. 1t is
a revel of loyalty rather than of
imperialism that is now in prog
ress, aud it is doubtful il the
complex problems of the Imperial
Federation are much nearer a
practical solution than they were
before these splendid functions
were opened. B..
The most interesting seer to-
day has been the progress of the
houses of Parliament to Bucking..
ham Palace. In accordance with
an ancient tradition, Speaker Gul.
ly was conveyed in state in an
antique coach so cumbrous that
dray horses were employed to
dra " it, and as it rumbled along it
seemed to invite tho fate of
Holmes famous SHAY" There
we're other carriages, but m, st of
the members followed on foot.
Lord Chancellor and lords with
mace and purse. bearers also at
tended, but the scarlet and ermine
robes worn on Sunday were not
used. The ceremony at the palace
lasted barely ten minutes.
This day was one of the most
fatiguing of the week for the Queen,
the official programme demand
ling the reception of several dis
tinguished bodies of official per-
sonages and the reception of
addresses at Slough, Eaton and
Windsor.
The chief event of the day and
one of the most interesting of the
entire week was the presentation
to the Queen of congratulatory
addresses by both houses of Par
Lament, which occurred at Buck
ingham Palace this morning.
Nearly half u century has passed
since the House Of Commons
visited tie sovereign in body,
the last occasion being the pre-
sentatlon of an address acknow.
lodging the declaration of war
against Russia, and not since the
carly fortles, when addresses were
made congratulating the Queen
on the failure of attempts at
assassination, has she received the
two houses together.

Governor Freeth, who came back
on the Luisa D from her cruise
after guano island supposed to
lie between Clipperton Island and
Hawaii, says that the island was
shown on the old charts and that
it is still in existence or has gone
down owing to some volcanic &C
ton. Captain Freeth is positive
that the island is no myth. Nine
years ago he saw it himself. but
now it is not to be found. The
schooner had to be back in San
Francisco by certain date, so as
thorough a search as he would
like to have made was impossible.
He contemplates making another
search for it in the near future

The Cnlture OF Ferns.

1t is better to begin with the young
plants. Be careful not to over-pot
them; wash the inside of the pots clean,
and give especially good drainage; use
open, rich. fibrous soil, light rather
than heavy, and instead of filling the
pot with soil to the brim leave plenty
of room to hold water. Ferns should
never get quite dry at The root, yet it
will not do to keep them soaking wet.
Many of them, especially the maiden
hair and gold and silver ferns, dislike
being splashed overhead, and hot sun
slime must never fall directly upon
these delicate kinds. Ferns nre sure to
be killed by little dribblings of water
given every day. The same rule that
applies to watering other plants is
good with ferns: When the top of the
soil looks dry fill the pot with water
to the brim, so that the ball of soil
may have thorough soaking.-vick's

THE TRUE REMEDY.

"Chief," says: I'VE won't keep house
without DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Elk
perimented with many others, but
never got the true remedy until we
used DR.. Kings New Discovery. No
other remedy can take its place in our
home, as in it we have a certain and
sure cure for Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Coughs. ETC." 1t is idle to experiment
with other remedies, even II they are
urged on you as just as good as Dr.
Kings New Discovery. They are not
as good. because this remedy has
record Of cures and besides is guaran-
teed. It never fails to satisfy. Trial

NEW GAME OF WITS.
It Is Called Character @ Quotations and
Is Entertaining.

1t Is Coiied Character QuothtiOhs auu
Is Entertaining.
The game of character quotations"
is new-fashioned way of holding the
mirror up to nature and of seeing our
selves as others see US. 1t also fur
nishes an excellent method of passing
a pleasant evening, for when are peo-
pie so interested as in talking about
themselves?
Long Slips of paper are handed to
each participant in the game, who
obligingly affixes his signature to the
bottom and passes it on to his neighbor
on the right. Beginning at the top of
the paper, the neighbor writes his inn
preston of the character and personal
ity of its owner in an appropriate verse
of poetry selected at random from some
remembered author. If the stanza is
comic, so much the more fun; if it is full
some or sentimental, so much the more
confusion for the recipient when it is
read to the jeering assembly.
When the first neighbor has written
his impression he in turn sends it
around the circle, after having folded
down his own poetical estimate. If his
memory fails him altogether, orr no
suitable rhyme comes to mind apphs
table to Especial Individual, he is
forced by the laws of character quota
tons TO compose stanza himself. AT
the conclusion of the game, when the
papers are covered with scribbling, the
