A r1illion Dollar Bedroom.

Half way between Munich and Salz-
burg is the third observation-disclosures
built by Ludwig H. writes Professor
J. H. Gore in the July Ladies' Home
Journel. This great structure is incom-
plete, fortunately for already overtaxed
Bavaria. for no one could surmise what
it's cost would have been. One room
alone-the renowned bedchamber-could
not be duplicated for less than million
dollars. The vaulted ceiling is one great
allegorical painting, the rounded cornice
is covered with score of richly framed
mural paintings, the walls are panels of
hammered gold of intricate designs, and
even the floor is of a marvellous pattern.
The only suggestion of the purpose Of
this wonderful room'>is the siXty-thous-
and-dollar bed with it's canopy more
magnificent than any that covers a regal
throne. In the gorgeous dining-room he
had erected disappearing table, which
dropped through the floor when course
was finished, and in its place came up an
other, set and served. He desired this
so that servants would be unnecessary in
the room and the most secret State mat
tiers could be discussed in safety. Many
people sought in vain to see the famous
room at Herrenchiemsee. Once an actress
pleased Ludwig so much by her recita
ton that she thought it an opportunt
moment to request permission to see his
most poetic bed-chamber.' She wa:
coolly dismissed for her effrontery, ant
the servants were ordered to fumigat'
the room in which she had been received.

The Young Housekeeper.

"The true advice to give young, rest
less housekeeper is to put more mindi into
her work; to find in her daily occupation
studies interesting and important, which
will surely conduce to her own benefit as
well as to the well-being OF her house
hold" writes Katharine Roich, of the
college Bred Woman in her home" in
the July Ladies' Home Journal. "She
may easily fill her mind with the annoy
ances, the disagreeable and monotonous
details, the confinement, the Interrupt
tons of the daily life, but by intelligent
use Of her time, by systematlzng her
work, by simplifying her manner OF life,
and by resolutely Selling her opportu-
mites she will find time for favorite
studies and for interests outside OF home.
Let woman grid up her intellect and
courage-she needs both-to the high
office she accepts. Let her not be anxious,
but cheerful striving every day to make
her work more complete. more perfect,
and to win from the daily care the re-
freshment which she needs. While she
may be often weary she will not then be
restless nor disconnected, realizing that
she has secured in her home some of the
things best worth striving for And her
friends will see in her own intellectual life
and character richness and sweetness
of which she may be quite unconscious.
For in the quiet of her home, with its
thinking, and planning, and working, the
bearing of many cares, and loving, un'
selfish ministrations for others, there viii
spring up in herself sincere, generous sym
pathies, sound judgments, and cultiva
ton of mind and spirit which will prove

Telling Stories to Children.

When one speaks of telling stories to
the little people, prose narratives seem
to be commonly understood, and as
commonly used, but there is no mistake
greater than to suppose that children
are not susceptible to the charms of
poetry. They care more for poetry, on
the contrary, than the majority of
grown people, whether tor the melody,
the rythm, the rhymes, the short lines,
the simplicity and picturesqueness of ex-
preston, or for all these reasons to.

ly different from common speech Goethe
advised that every child should see a
pretty picture and hear beautiful poem
every day, and if we would not Danish

behooves us to follow his advice and
subject the child to its influence at the
time of greatest susceptibility.
We must beware, however, of giving a

Don't Shoot John Harris.

The Burlington Free Press publishes
the following for the benefit of it's Yer.
mont readers and as the story has
several morals we give it herewith:
"If any wandering nimrod comes
across Private Secretary John E. Harris
in the woods anywhere in Vermont these
days, please do not shoot. He was
simply driven to seek safety in fight. In
response to the opportunities OF various
wel-meaning friends he took advantage
OF his position to have some OF the gov
eminent seed assigned to Senator Ross
sent to different sections of the state.
In most instances the packages Of agri-
cultural seed put in an appearance on

said for the fruit thereof. One indignant
farmer informed the aforesaid private
secretary that he received the wheel.

but of all that he put into the ground
he had seen but one pesky turnip." An
other resident who sprinkled his newly
made and specially prepared lawn with
government-grown, hand picked seed
expecting to see a new kind of velvet
grass decorate his front yard, finds tina,
he has been nursing simply an unusually
vigorous growth OF pig weeds, Harris
has taken to the woods, and the chances
are that various members of the Yer

reap trouble from their seed.sowiug

in the primitive frame building were
just as devcut as those who now
gather in the elegant stone structures
which now beautify the village. Let
us at least trust that they were not
more so.
Truly things have changed and are
changing, and the sooner we realize
that fact and adapt ourselves to the
changes the more comfortable we
will be. 1t may not always be best
to lead, but surely we should all be
ashamed to bring up the rear of the

Pertinent Press Comment.

1t is seldom that single speech
will launch man into the arena as
a candidate for high political office,
but since Wendell P. Stafford OF st.
Iohnsbury delivered the Memorial
address at Barre he has been promi-
nently mentioned as a successor to
Congressman Grout. In the midst

The death Of Henry Clark Of Rut-
land is loss not only to this city,
but to the state of Vermont. The
service of few men to his community

and so resultant of good as were the
years of this man. His loss is most
keenly felt by those magnificent or

Masons, of which he was an honored

A few OF the state papers are pitch
ing into the st. Adams Messenger for
advocating representation in the
state legislature according to the
population instead of by towns. 1t
may be long time coming, but come

method as advocated above must
prevail. Representation by towns
irrespective OF population, is unjust

A strong effort is being made this
year to drive out the fake shows ant
gambling devices from the fairs in al
parts of the country. We doubt
however, whether it is practical OF
feasible to return to the old days o
the fair, pure and simple, without
any accessories in the way OF amuse
ment to attract those who do no
t. have the same interest in the exhibits
that the farmer does. Nevertheless
the effort to cleanse the fair grounds
of these immoral shows and scheme
for robbing the unwary OF thei
money is a most laudable one. Las

there was no such day on the calen-

who entertain such a thought will
only recall the significance of the day,
and remember that the noise and
racket really serves good purpose
and keeps alive the memory of one
OF the really great events in history,
the noise will not seem so harsh and
they will be reconciled to it. Older
