Brussels, April 6.-Sipido, the
would-be assassin of the Prince
of Wales, has made a full confess
sion in which he says the plot to
kill the Prince was concOcted by
himself and three other boys.
Sipido explains his motive in
the following:
"For a long time L have thought
that the ambitious men who are
unchainiug war sacrifice so many
human lives that they deserve to
be punished. Those men should
suffer the penalty OF retaliation
When l learned by the papers
that the Prince was going to pass
through Brussels l Immediately
resolved TO become the avengel
Of humanity and TO kill this as
sassin. On Sunday l made VI
my mind to carry out my pro
iect. L regret that l have no
accomplished it as l desired.

hours.

who find traits of Mulvaney in all his
men. True. he has often sighted the
eternal womanly by writing wonderful
stories that treat only of men, of the
forces of nature and of dumb creation.
But his conception of woman's character
proves, like everything else that he has
written, that he looks into the vast mir
ror of the world and sees humanity with
sympathetic eyes and that he pictures
all he sees fearlessy, yet without de-
stroying our best ideals. He tells story
and we surrender to the charm, as chill
dren do when they listen to a fairy tale.
He is pre-eminently un poete de fener-
gle. All strong, vivid life appeals tc
him. The warm sympathy he feel for
his character goes out more spontaneous
" to his men. He deals leniently with
their faults and weaknesses if they show
some element of strength, the strength
that will eventually gain the mastery
over matter and lead the way to mans
highest development.
His gospel is work-the joy of life in
work. Kipling is a strong, fearless think
err, whose superb vitality and indomitable
human spirit seek their counterpart in
the strength that is mans. For him love
is not the only motive power, even in the
world of fiction.
In his american Notes" we find this
characteristic appreciation of the Ameri-
can girl: Sweet and comely are the maid
ems of Devonshire; delicate and of gra-
cious seeming those who live in the pleas

their occurrences the damscls of France,
clinging closely to their mothers, with
large eyes wondering at the wicked
world; excellent in her own place and to

A Beautiful Georgia Belle.

"In her early youth Julia Hurt was an
exquisite specimen of willful adventur-
Gus southern grlhood and was known far
and wide for her daring escapades on
horseback" writes Mrs. Thaddeus Hor
ton in The Ladies' Home journal. when
quite young, she married Captain Col
quit, United States army. who was soon
after killed in the war, leading a Confed
crate division. The young widow soon
after went to Paris. 1t was just about
this time that Napoleon III summoned
young Jerome Bonaparte of Baltimore,
an officer IN the United States army, to
the French court. 1t happened that Cap
tain Colquitt and jerome Bonaparte, hav-
ing been classmates at West Point, were
warm personal friends, and, naturally,
the formers widow no sooner reached the
French capital than she made her pres
ence known to the young Franco-Ameri
can. She and the young officer became
very cordial acquaintance, and through
his influence she was introduced at court
and was soon one of the favorites of the
royal couple. 1t was at length reported
among the southern friends of Mrs. Col
quit that her marriage with jerome
would occur in a few weeks, when she
suddenly and unexpectedly returned to
Dinglewood, her Georgia home, and an
nounced total change in all of her plans
The two never met again. Her family has
her letters from Jerome and some from
the Emperor Napoleon, but their contents
will probably never be known. There are
also diamond tiara and many other pre-.
cious jewels that were given to her by her
royal friends"

Suggestions to Mothers.

What wonderful imagery there is in
that legend given us by the Franco-Ger-
man Chamisso of Peter Schlemihl, the
man who sold his shadow for the purse
of Fortunatus. thinking it by no means
indispensable adjunct and finding too
late that without it he was an object of
suspicion and derision to all his fellows.
A shadow presupposes light. you know.
The man who has no shadow can have
had no light. What a vast thought and
how suggestive to mothers.
This looks like depression, but it is not.
How soon does your baby's will awaken
You don't know. But very, very soon
indeed yon find out that he has one. And
very, very early perhaps you give in to
1t, just little. only little. He wants
something he should not have, and you
give it to him because he cries so hard.
No need to be stern with mere baby,
you say. Nothing is lost by INDUCING
him at that age. He grows older, and
then you acknowledge his will more, be-
cause you know what a battle it would
be to enforce yours. and then he becomes
n sturdy boy. and you tell yourself that
you want him to be fond of his mother

narian and of his home as presided over
by martinez. You might as well be
candid. Probably you know that you
have lost control of him and have reason
to doubt whether he is so very. very
fond of you after all.
How much better to determine very
early in baby's life that you will not be

picion and derision Of your most polite
acquaintances are assured.
In other words, there comes a time to
every mother when she must choose be-
tween her child's love and respect, when
1t seems that either one or other must
be sacrificed. Woe to the woman who
chooses the first! But she who chooses
the latter has secured to herself both

For the Young Wife.

Don't forget that though it is some
times difficult to win a mans love it is
more difficult to retain it.
Don't under any circumstances speak
of your husbands faults or failings You
have faults and failings, too, which you
would very much object to having dis
cuSSed 10y strangers.
Don't, when a man comes home tired
from business, tell him of all your trials
during the day. OF course you have
them; SO does every other housewife, and
he knows it, but he doesn't want you to
talk about worry and aunoyances when
he is tired.
Don't forget that before you were mar
ried you tried your best to look attract
i've. 1t is just as essential to keep this
practice up now that you are married
in fact, it is more so.
Don't be glum and solemn. Be cheer
full and entertaining even if you have to
make an effort to do so. \ man needs to
be entertained ut home, or he will seek
such entertainment at his club.
Don't be i'll tempered if things don't 20
your way. Gentleness and patience will
accomplish very much more than ill tenn
per, reason or force.-Amcrican Queen.

Denfness In Children.

Deafness in children is so frequent in
occurrence and often exists so long be-
fore it is suspected that every mother
should read these words OF Dir. John d.
Wright, which. although addressed to his
medical colleagues through a letter to The
Medical Record. are of direct importance
to parents He says:
81 am moved to write you by the fire.
queut instances that come to my notice in
which Il timely word from the family
physician to the mother Of a deaf child
would have made him a genuine benefac-
tor.
Every physician some time during his
practice meets with case of total deaf
ness or imperfect hearing in child. In
nine cases out of ten the deafness, wheth-
er partial or total, was not noticed by
him on first seeing the child and was not
accepted as fact by the parents for q
long time after the doctors suspicious
were aroused and expressed. | have
known many cases in which the child was
4 years old and more before the par
ents were convinced that it was so deaf
as to need special attention. The result is
that much valuable time is lost which. il
properly used. would have had a most
beneficial effect upon the future welfare
of the child.
1T is not generally realized by either
physicians or parents how great a handi-
cap even slight deafness is to child in
hindering the acquisition of language and
such general information as comes from
the ordinary conversation of those
around him. II the truth were known,
it would be found that many so called
stupid children are only hard of hearing
and have been so from infancy.
IF child's hearing is imperfect, the
fact should be known as early as posi-
bic and steps taken to determine the
nature of the difficulty and what means
should be employed to develop the hear
ing when possible or to train the other
senses if there is little hope of improve.

Once in awhile one becomes an author,
like Frank lie Flesh, or an Indian girl
becomes an artist, as in the case Of An

Miss Reel has an enthusiastic conf
dence in the ability of the red man to

year she travels from coast to coast to
study the different needs of the reserva-

with the standards reached by the institu-
tons that educate the children of the

she has been bending her energies toward

During her first year in Office she trav-

beginning to build houses. and gradually

klamath reservation in Oregon, the In

to be done, for, strange as it may appear,
some of the tribes, such as the Sac and
Fox, in Iowa, living within a nights ride

state of barbarism than when Columbus

Shopping and Work Bag.

A useful form of hand bag, which
obtained the first prize offered for an
article of this kind best adapted to the
purpose, is made as follows: Take
piece of cloth "a inches square and haste
to it closely a lining of firm silk. Fold
over the corners until they meet in the
center Carefully draw circle four
inches in diameter around the central
point and cut away the cloth inside the
circle. Join the meeting edges of the
cloth in seams and press the seams flat,
afterward feather stitch them on the
right side. BY gathering up the circular
opening in the hand it will now be seen
that a bag has been formed. with a
dropping base decorated with four points
formed by the joining of the seams
To hold the points in place work a row
of feather stitching across the point at
right angles with the one outlining the
seam. Little tasSels of the silk or but
tonholed rings may be next affixed to
the points. Next sew to the circular
opening a bias frill, joining in seam
at one side. Run a row of stitching a
little way from the lower edge of the
frill, to afford casing in which to run
a ribbon for draw string, and decorate
the casing with a row Of feather stitch
ing. When the draw strings are in posi-
ton, very shapely bag will be com
pleted. 1t may be laid fiat on the table
to hold work or it may be hung over the
arm to carry parcels. For use as a gar
den bag for work it may be fashioned of
cretonne or denim, feather stitched in
white. For the street a heavy black
corded silk or cloth lined with a con-
trasting color will be serviceable.

What Mcn Like.

A bright woman writes and asks il we
will tell her what are some of the prin-
cipal qualities in women which most at
tract men. We think the word attract is
not correctly used by our correspondent,
if she will allow us TO say so, for often
the things in women that attract men
are possessions of doubtful value in any
woman.
What attracts a man is one thing; what
will hold him and command his respect
is quite another.
A woman's smile, for example, attracts
a man, but an even temper retains him.
A pretty gown attracts a man; the
knowledge that it was inexpensive de-
lights him.
y pleasant manner attracts a man;
brightness of brain holds him.
a respect for the religious belief of
every human being attracts a man; ir-
reverence in woman is to him abominabe
a consideration for his comfort attracts
a man; a continuation of this makes him
your most humble slave.
a chat in which there is no malice at
tracts a man; neither scandal nor evil
speaking makes a woman seem sweet
and lovely to him.
