"HElNTJE" IS UNPOPULAR.
Niclxnnmes Given by the Dutch to
Their queens Consort.

IDclT queen - ton5Oft.
Already there Is cloud lowering
over the wedding Of Queen Wilhclmina
to Prince IIenry-not any domestic diff
flculty, of course, but Hcntje, as the
Dutch call him, Is very unpopular.
Prince Henry does not receive pen
ny from the Dutch civil list. He is
therefore gratis consort, general and
admiral But, rs he has sacrificed a ca
reer in marrying and staying in the
Netherlands. the queen can afford to
support him. and she does. Yet the
Dutch grumble. although the cOnsort
costs them nothing.
On the whole, the prince Is not bad
felloo either. He Is about "A years of
age. has light golden hair, and his COM
plcxion shows that he Is not afraid to
60 out in all kinds of weather. Though
he is homely and his manner Is I'M
graceful lie looks honest. He has n
will Of his own, but he will have little
use for it in his present position. He
has marked military air, and, as the
Dutch people hate the very look Of
drill, this is against him.
They have nicknamcd him jaeger"
which means hunter and also hotel
GRAND boy. Other nicknames are
"Coachman" and "Englishman."
The principal reason for his unpopu-
larity is said TO be jealousy. AS hard
working people are inclined to be jeal-
GUS of the penniless husbands of great
helresscs, so the Dutch are jealous Of
their queens mate. They adored her
and thought she belonged to them alone
until this man robbed them Of her af-
fections, as they look at the matter.
A few days after his arrival at The
Hague Heintje dismissed few Of the
queens most trusted servants. Her
people were disappointed because she
did not defend them. He came very
near Diminishing an old coachman who
had driven the queen ever since she
was a baby.
Another charge against him is that
he shot at Loo, tame pet deer of the
young queen. That's how he got the
name Of Eager" no doubt unjustly.
The Dutch say that he impcriled the
queens life by compelling her to sit on
the box seat Of a mail coach and driv-
ing her through the city with four
fiery. unframed horses. The coach was
wedged in an alley. and it took num-
Der Of men TO pull in out backward. !
The Dutch would not forgive IIeintje
for exposing the lie OF their beloved |
queen IL this manner. From this drive
originated the ncknamcs "COachman"
and "Englishman."-New York World.

The Cstrlch'H Legs.

Although the ostrich has powerful
legs and can kick like mule, his limbs
are very brittle and are easily broken
He has two toes on Zach foot. one being
armed with n horny nail which he uses
as his principal weapon Of warfare.
When an unarmed man is attacked by
one Of these birds, the chances are
very much against the man unless he
can climb tree or jump over a five

Il Nnn'f Roll OF

The egg of the guillemot is one of
the most peculiar and furnishes an
admirable example Of the way in
which nature provides for the condi-
tons of life.
This bird is found on the coast. and
the eggs are usually laid on the bare
edges of high rocks, from which posi-
ton any ordinary specimen of the egg
would probably roll off.
But the guillemots egg won't do
this. 1t has been fashioned by nature
to stop on. The egg is nearly conical

A CULINARY GENIUS.
Cooked Dinner In His Home While
at Business In His Office

The ordinary man is nowhere more
out Of place than in the kitchen. AL
rules have their exceptions, however
and a correspondent sends a story OF
a man who might have led armies per-
haps, but was certainly equal to Gull
nary emergencies.
In the absence of his wife and family
it became necessary, as he thought, for
him to cook his own dinner, and in
view of the fact that he was a man Of
business hii presence was also needed
down town at his office
Now, the same body cannot be in two
places at once and this well known
consideration would have settled the
question for an average man. He
would have either spent his fo noon
in the kitchen or gone to his Office and
lunched out. This however, was a
man to whom physical laws do not
courtesy even as custom to great kings.
The case stood thus:
He was to have a boiled dinner and
would have it done to a turn, piping
hot and ready to serve at his home
coming. The meat, turnips and beets,
therefore, Which require a longer time,
he put on before leaving the house.
The potatoes and cabbage needing less
time for cooking. were put on the COW
er Of the pot.
Then he dropped string through a
hole in the edge Of the cover, ran it
through loop suspended from the
ceiling and thence down TO the sink
In the sink hole he firmly stuck a can
die. to which, two inches below the
top, he tied the string.
Last of all he lighted the candle and
went to his business. In two hours, or
about half an hour before he was to
return, when it was time for the vege |
tables on the cover to 30 to their ap- |
pointed place, the slowly descending |
fame burned the string, which releas- |
ed the otherwise unsupported edge of |
the cover, which dropped its burden |
into the pot and fell back where it be-
longed.
When the genius reached home, his |
dinner was ready.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

An Englishman made wager that
he could cook plum pudding ten feet
beneath the surface of The Thames and
won the bet by placing the pudding in
a tin case and putting the whole in a
sack of lime. The heat of the lime,
shaking when it came in contact with
the water, was sufficient to cook the
pudding in two hours.
