Nine. Patti. who recently attained
her fifty-seventh birthday, has for
many years held the record for the lar
gest sum earned in year by woman.
Her highest total for IL months is
$350,000. Her London concert terms
are said to be $4,000 night, but her
high water mark for a single perform
ance is $1,000, received in Buenos

Mme Patti has written some Con

her favorite poet is Longfellow, her ia

pastime entertaining her friends. to
whom she is loyalty itself. She pre-
sents them with rich and costly prss-

old Garden Flowers.

When you are in the really truly
country for an outing, there are many
treasures to be picked up by the way
side, as one might say, that will prove
happy reminders of pleasant days
through all the coming year.
Above all things search for an old
fashioned garden and induce its owner
for love or money to let you have a
generous bunch of lavender. This is a
constant joy as long as it lasts and is
not only to be used for seeming bed
linen, for which it is so delightful, but
serves other good purposes as well. A
sprig of it lighted at the blossom end.
then extinguished and allowed to smol-
der, will fill the sjckroom with the elu-
sive sweetness of the old garden itself.
While you are in the old garden get
some rosemary, too. even If only for
the name, which is as quaint and sweet
as the herb itself; some lemon verbena
leaves and some hundred rose leaves or
other kinds. AN these are delightful
for bed linen.
While in the mountains get some
pine cones to string on thread and
hang across the frame of landscape
in which are depicted pine trees.
Cattails make pretty frieze on a
light wall and look pretty distributed
about the home after the return from
wanderings.
Sometimes on an old holly tree, ma
pies and others you will find a little
buttertly's house that has a trapdoor
lid to it, and inside there will be found
the skeletons of little spiders and
gnats. These interest children wonder
fully on account of the trapdoor that
works up and down as if on hinge.
Lichen, too, is very beautiful thing,
though raturalists tell us it is a para
site, and pretty frames are made by
gluing it on pasteboard foundation
cut the desired form.

Clara G. Hoffman, president Of the
w. G. T. q. in Missouri, says of Mrs.
CaIie Hoover Howe, who has recently
begun work for the movement as ma
tional organizer in Minnesota;
Mrs. Callie Hoover Howe, who will
commence work in Minnesota in Sep
TENDER, was born and reared on a farm
in northwestern Pennsylvania. She
had the usual educational advantages
of the public district school and little
beyond that as at very early age she
was married.
Soon after this early marriage her
husband died, leaving her young
widow with a baby son. Alone and
desolate, the girl mother went back to
her fathers house, where for several
years herself and child received the
care and devotion of her parents.
When Mrs. Howe formed new ties, her
husband was railroad man, connect
ed with lines west of the Mississippi
river, and for years their abode has
been in st. Joseph, Mo-, where they
have established very delightful
home.

One of the delightful incidents Of our
trip to Milwaukee was a visit to the
beautiful South Side Study club of
Chicago and day and night at Loyal
Hall, the unique and interesting home
of its beloved president, Mrs. Edward
Roby. The club, though holding regu-
lar meetings since 1887, was not incor-
porated until 1889. The first elected
president was Mrs. Isabel Pierson. At
the next annual election after the
death of Mrs. Pierson Mrs. Edward
Roby was chosen president, and so 10y
ally has Mrs. Roby followed the inter
ests of the club she has been annually
and unanimously elected to the leader
ship ever since. Says the club histo-
rian, Mrs. Blanche Gillies, sit would be
impossible to give any idea of what
Mrs. Roby is to the club, for, more than
leader, she has become the universal
great heart in whom all are united"
The South Side Study club holds all
its meetings at the home of the presi-
dent They gather at 2 o'clock. The
meeting is opened with "Our Father"
and the singing of America" After
that the secretary and treasurer report,
then each woman gives quotation,
and, says Mrs. Roby, Il wish the pub
lie could know what really choice quo
tations are garnered up in our club
After quotations come current events,
and in our current events hour we
yield to none in the gravity of events
discussed. Our women steadily watch
ed the little cloud in the heavens and
saw the handwriting on the wall for
Spain, knew exactly how the Monroe
doctrine applied, knew what the value
Of Hawaii would be to US, what was
necessary for Cuba, what we ought to
do with Porto Rico and Manila, know
what our relations with each country
are, understand pretty thoroughly the
law of nations, the articles Of war, rec
ognize pretty thoroughly the difference
between the executive, legislative and
judicial parts of our government. Aft
err this talk on current events comes
the real work of the day" The mem
bers then sit around their presidents
table and discuss over cup Of tea or
coffee household economics-the price
of things, the way to make over gar
ments, how to economize in money
matters in every way-and the latest
books are discussed. After pleasant
hour over the cup that cheers they
arise and sing the Doxology.
The handsomest club calendar in the
country is published by this club, con-
tanning fine half tones Of every mem

The Infnnta Euln1in.

Infanta Eulalia, because of her d.
yorce which she recently secured from
her husband Don Antonio, will not be
able to make her home in Paris in the
future, as she has done in the past
Hereafter the princess must spend nine
months of each year in Madrid under
the chaperonage of the queen Of Spain.
This chaperonage is required by Span
ish court etiquette, which has declared
that all princesses of royal blood living
apart from their husbands should
make their headquarters at Madrid.
The terms of the princess separation
from her husband, man some years
her Junior, are in every way advanta-
geous to her, and she has been the sub
ject of congratulations.
Infanta Eulalia's husband was one of
her own kinsmen, her cousin Antonio
Luis Filipo Maria prince of Bourbon
Orleans. He was born in Seville in
1866, just two years after his wife.
The couple were married March 6,
1886, in Madrid. After their marriage
the prince and princess made Madrid
their home until the disagreement and
separation came.
Two sons were born to them, Alton
so, who is now A. and Luis Fernando,
y. The prince, who is an infante of
Spain, is lieutenant colonel of the Prin-
cess regiment of hussars and cheva-
lier of the Order of the Golden Fleece.
The Infanta Eulalia visited this coun-
try in May, 1898, on the occasion of the
Worlds fair in Chicago. She was the
guest of the nation, representing the
queen of Spain in the Columbus cele-
bration. In New York city ball was
given in her honor in the Madison
Square Assembly rooms. In Washing
ton and Chicago she received great at
tentions. The Duke of Veragua and
his suit accompanied the infanta's par
ty.-New York World.

every woman who has had expert
ence and has suffered on account of the
servant problem has her own little the
DRY about the solution of it, although
the world does not always hear about
her particular idea" said housekeep-
er yesterday Boston suggested the
cooperative kitchen. Utica, in this
state, was responsible for the cooper
alive wagon that dispensed edibles at
the meal hour. Neither of these ideas
was obliged to protect itself against in
fringement. The Pacific coast recon-
mends Cinnamon, but that idea is not
even as popular out there at present as
1t once was. Chicago became the tar
get of scornful epithet when not long
ago one Of it's townswomen advocated
the adoption of regular working hours
for domestic servants and recommend
ed double force of houseworkers. In
hold instituted system Of prizes to be
awarded to faithful servants who de-
voted themselves for a certain term of
years to one employer. New York has
had no ideas to offer except the old one
that any servant outlives her useful
ness every two years at the outside,
and thus the employment bureau and
the Help Wanted column always have
plenty of business.
But Chicago once more comes to the
front with an idea, and this time it
sounds like good one A woman en-
ployed man-just common, every
day kind of man-who was out Of
work. She paid him So a week until
she taught him to cook. Then the wait
ress and chambermaid left, and he said
he believed he could make beds and
sweep. So he learned to do the work
of the other servants, and she raised
his wages. One day the laundress fail
ed, and he volunteered to do the wash
ing. He said washing was no trick at
all, and so she raised his wages again.
So now he does everything in the house
that it formerly took three servants to
do. He seems never to get tired, and
we'll he is pronounced treasure. He
wears white apron and white coat.

keystone state, Mrs. Howe was taught
all kinds Of work and is thoroughly
good housekeeper The first recollec
ton have of Mrs. Howe was at Pertle
Springs, Mo-, where the Cumberland
Presbyterian church, of which she is a
member, holds great meeting each
summer. l noticed the slight, girlish
figure and the rapt attention she gave
to the w. G. I. U. exercises held during
two days of the meeting
Afterward l found in talking to her
that she would be $50 glad to do some
thing" but could not see what or
where. She was already a member Of
the local union in st. Joseph. and be-
fore long she found work in the dis
trict, becoming more and more interest
ed and more enlightened along the
many lines of our work. / found she
took all help, state and national papers,
and all literature available. The result
was quick development.
Mrs. Howe was made one of our
state lecturers and organizers We
found she did excellent work in the
state and was often invited into other
states for work. After little she was
made national organizer and is one Of
the quartet of young women Missouri
is proud of and who have been honored
by Mother National.
Mrs. Howe possesses ready wit and
enough magnetism to hold her au-
dience from start to finish during her
address. She has many calls to speak
for picnics and for Independence day
and for organizations which hold out
door meetings in summer.
Her voice, which mellows with the
passing years, has fine carrying quail
ity, and she has thorough grasp of the
subject discussed. Mrs. Howe has de-
veloped very rapidly and has yet to
reach her prime in useful labors.
She is literally the coming woman"
and those who hear her will decide she
has already come.
