fho Young King Alfonso OF Spain-Did

The Terrier and the Thief.

The Spanish royal children live in an
atmosphere of the most frigid and OK
acting fornality that can be we'll con
ceived. 1t is not only impossible for
them to be rs other boys and girls are,
Dut they cannot even enjoy anything
like tho amount of freedom which tho
children of the English and other royal
families do, and, if it should be the
case OF the heir to the throne, so much
tho moro rigid is the etiquette to be OBJ
served. His person is sacred, and no one
must presume to address him in famil-
lar terms, but must treat him with as
much ceremony as though he were
grown man and crowned king. Just
Imagine what Il stupid, wearisomo sort
OF thing this must be to bright, live
~ child who would enjoy nothing SO
much as good game with others of his
own ago and tho opportunity of sharing
his toys and other good things with
them.
Tho little Alfonso rs small child
was very delicate, and few expected
that he would live to grow up, but nft-
or timo his health began to improve,
and then his education commenced. Of
course both he and his sisters had sev-
eral masters, but there were also two
English govcrncsses, and the queen has
spent as much of her time with them as
possible.
They have always commenced their
day together by having breakfast in IA
family party at s O'Clock i'll tho morn
ing Then tho children havo spent some
time i'll the open air, aftcrward going
i'll to learn their lessons. Their cduca-
ton has been very comprehensive. Tho
young king, although only IL years of
age, now speaks four languages AT
o'clock the queen and the children
would mcot for dinner, tho latter again
returning to their lessons for IL short
time. Then perhaps they would all go
out for drive together
Since his tenth birthday the king has
appeared i'll uniform, with his hair cut
i'll military style. Nearly all his clothes
and toys havo been bought either in
London Or Paris, and, needless to say,
the toys have been the most costly that
could DO procured His fine rocking
horse, for instance, was covered with
tho skin of n real pony.

tests 1t is found to take one-half less
than corn to fatten an animal. AS food
for mich cows the tests have proved sat
isfactory, the cows giving one-third more
milk than when fed on bran, and butter
made from the milk In winter Is as yell
low as that made in June. The ration Is
made by soaking the peas until they be-
come soft, by cooking them or by grind
lns and feeding the meal AS a substi-
tute for coffee 1t Is rich and nutritious,
having a richer and better flavor than
ordinary coffee. 1t can be used freely py
invalids and children with known beneh-
cial effects. 1t is nourishing, but mas
none of the stimulating qualities OF the
coffee of commerce. Many old conee
drinkers prefer it to Rio or Java, and
many cannot tell the difference. 1t Is
parched and ground like other coffee, a
third less being used. Settled with an egg
with cream and sugar, 1t makes deli
cous drink
This is certainly an attractive state
ment Of the merits Of the new plant.
A pea, or bean, that will serve at once
to fatten beef cattle and feed mich cows
more economically than corn. and to dis
place Java and Mocha coffee on their
owners table needs no other recommen-
dations to enlist the interest or the aver
age farmer. 1t Is pea, or bean, among
a thousand, and most farmers will lose no
time, we suppose, in obtaining supply OF
the seed for their own benefit. The Tele-
gram adds that some seed can probably
be obtained from Mr.. Charles Il. Pen
mock. of Bellevue, Larimee county,
Idaho. or Mr.. John G. Lindemeier, OF the
same place, and progressive farmers IN
South Carolina who may desire to ex-
pertinent with the plant can regulate
their conduct by this information.
