Here is a little story of little girl,
the daughter of a local physician OF
credit and renOwn:
She is a bright child of six and has
been much petted by her admiring
friends. Perhaps this has spoiled her
a little, but she is so sweet and enter
tanning that visitors can't keep their
hands off of her.
One of these visitors, a new neigh
Dor, made a call on the little maids
mother, and it was but a few mo-
ments before the little maid was on
her lap.
In the chatter which followed the
lady made some aIlusion to the little
ones grandmother.
"Why, didn't you know?" cried the
child.
Know what, dear?" said the visitor.

ADVICE TO HOUSEKEEPERS.

To keep eggs pack them, when
new laid, in salt, with the small ends
downward.
Before using a new broom steep it
In warm water for a few minutes and
it will last longer.
Always have your kettles filled
with boiling water. A kettIeful Of
boiling water has saved life before
now.
Clean beets before boiling them,
but be careful not TO break the skins
if a bright color is wanted after they
are done.
In whipping cream have it - cold
as possible, then beat rapidly with a
cream whip or churn egg-beater.
Slow whipping makes butter.
In cooking onions and cabbage
plenty of water should be used and
it is well to change it at least once,
because of the strength of the
fiavOrs.
To restore oilcloth melt half an
ounce of wax in saucer of turpen-
tine. Rub over the oilcloth with this,
using a clean piece of flannel Pol
ish with a soft cloth.
Never put soda in the water in
which you wash china that has any
gliding on it. Soda Injuries the gild-
ing. Instead use soap, which an
swers just as well and has no i'll eff
fectS.
Pineapple juice drained from the
fruit and mixed with currant. lemon,
blackberry or raspberry juice makes
a delicious drink. A few wedges left
to float in the lemonade bowl inn
prove the flavor of that beverage.
To keep fish never put one on top
of another, but wiring u clean cloth
out of cold water in which some salt
has been dissolved. Wrap the fish
separately in this, lay on a dish and
keep in the coolest place possible.

SUMMER STYLES FOR MEN.

Fashionable cuffs are short and
lound eornered.
The green in vogue in neckwear is
gor the fioriG. 1t makes the other
Kind look bill rus.
The latest double-breasted sack
suit is in striped flannel, coming well
over the hips. The lapels are moder-
ately large.
Our new possessions have supplied
names for summer headwear. Thus
Ne have the Manila straws, the Porto
Rican palms and the Guam Panamas.
The dOuble-fold collar has come
down. 1t is no longer fashionable to
Near the tall snowy bands which
were the mode last summer. The
best height is an inch and a quarter.
A swell tie from a French source is
called the Tulip" This has the ends
rounded and opened and lined with
a solid color of silk to contrast
agreeably with the color in the outer
surface of the cravat. This is ad-
justed into a bow of medium size and
the top lips of the ends are raised
slightly by the deft hand of the
wearer, the result being regarded as
clever.
To the average man a summer over
coat will seem a ridiculous Sugges-
tion, but there are times when il is
very useful. Hence the feather
weight raglan made of covert cloth,
boXey in shape. It is skeleton fin
ished, except the sleeves and shoul-
ders, which are luxurously silk lined.
This is intended for the seaside,
mountain, travelling or TO wear over
an evening dress suit. OF course il
will never do for extreme heat, but
then it's something new.
This summers cloths are striped
fiannels, serges, feather-weight
worsteds, cricketing cloths and home
spuns. In the flannel class the ruling
grounds are black and dark blue, set
off with faint or chalk stripes.
Serges in the best makes only are
recommended. They are cool and
make up fttingly. For elderly men
trousers in light worsted and coat
and waistcoat of sicilian are advised
for easy going business wear. The
white waiStc0at j. suggested for a
change with this combination.

HOW MANY MEN

Like to be spoken of as possessing
political influence.
Show a weakness for trailing in the
wake of social swens.
Show a weakness for exhibiting a
big roll of bank notes.
Speak of themselves as the gentle
manly end of politics.
Think themselves considerably
Nnarter than every other man.
Boast of a fondness for children
which never IS in open evidence.
Want to be considered competent
critics of music and the drama.
Carry letters in their coat pocket
which should have been burned.
Base their opinions OF a clergy
mans sermon on his voice rather
than on his argument.
Think it an evidence of great his
toric knowledge to talk of Waterloo,
Wagram and the burning of Moscow.

The cleaning of the frescoes at
Westminster abbey has called atten-
zion TO the fact that in the picture of
the pilgrim fathers there the good
ship Mayfower is flying the union flag
that first came into existence in 1900,
says a London newspaper. This an
achronism is not uncommon in naval
pictures. In the collection of all paint
5ngs OF sea fights at the British Royal
United Service institution there are
many pictures of battles fought be-
fore 1900 in which the British ships fly
the union flag of to-day. The eXplana-
zion of this anticipation of history is
that some years ago, when the older
pictures were cleaned and restored.

Europe. System of Royal suceessIOH.

The most general is that known as
the salic system, under which women
are completely excluded. This is the
rule in Belgium, Sweden and Norway,
Italy, Denmark and Germany. Then
there is the German-Dutch system un.
der which Germans in all degrees of re-
lationship take precedence of females,
the throne passing TO the female line
only in case of the extinction Of all the
male lines, however remote. This is
the rule in Holland-frOm which the
law takes its name-Russia. and some
of the minor German states. The
third system is our own (English) un-
der which females are excluded when
there are males in the same degree of
relationship, but take precedence of
males whose degree of relationship is
not so close as their own. Thus an
elder daughter of the ruling sovereign
gives way to all her younger brothers
and their issue, bat takes precedence
of a male cousin or nephew. This
system is the rule IN Spain and Portu.
gal as well as in England.-St. James
