The Frenchwoman Is an excellent
housewife. She makes the most of ev-
erything and obtains much from small
resources. She manages her household
most economically. She is sober. She is
ingenious. she Is devoted to her husband
aud to her children, In the home of
farmers and workingmen she represents
the intellectual element. When a farmer
comes to speak on business with his
landlord it i always the wife who talks.
and enters into discussions The man
looks at her and gives his opinion by nod
ding or shaking his head without say
ing a single word. Ii a workingman has
a lawsuit on hand he goes with his wife
to the lawyers office: il is the woman
who does the talking and explains the
ease. She j. evidently the Intelligent
one and her husband recognizes this fact
and is forced to acknowledge 1.-THE
Humanitarian.

AN ANCIENT EDIFICE.
PLANS TO REOPEN WASHINGTON'S
CHURCH.
Project to Restore tho Old Pohic Place
OF worship-Built After Plans Drawn
by George WsshIn mi ton-situatsd In
Fairfax County, Virginia.
Especial letter.

Among the colonial churches of Vir-
ginia none is more interesting than
Pohick or Mount Vernon church, stu
lted in Truro parish, Fairfax county.
1t should appeal to all lovers of history
because of its connection with the great
men of the colonial period. B.
The present building was completed
in l772, from plans drawn by Washing
ton. The original building was a wood
en- one, two miles south of the present
site, and on the other side of Pohick
Run, from which the church took its
name. The former edifice fell into de-
cay about 1853, and the present loca-
ton was chosen.
History relates that when the change
Of site was made, George Mason, one
Of the building committee, used his elo-
luence in favor of the old one, and
George Washington answered him with
A carefully-drawn map, showing that
the new place was the center of popu-
lation. This argument won. and the
present location was chosen. 1t is just
lere, according to tradition, that Wash
ington divided his army on the way to
Yorktown. in 1881. Pohick Church be-
ing at the forks of the road. He took
a part of his army by way of Colches-
ter and part by Occoquon village, both
lying on Occoquon Run.
Washington drew the ground plan and
front~ elevation, the plans for the pews
and the placing of the pulpit. When
the church was finished in 1772-'73 the
pews were sold, George Mason buying
two and George Washington buying
first n and afterward another. Wash
ington was a vestryman for 20 years of
Truro parish, was active in the build
ing of four churches in Fairfax and
Alexandria counties and was also a
warden for several ears.
After the revolution the services at
Pohick Church were held irregularly
and Washington became an attendant
at Christ Church, Alexandria, which
church he had also been instrumental
In building and in which he had bought
a pew as soon as it was completed.
In the civil war the situation of the
church made 1t a prominent picket
post. 1t was then entirely dismantled
and used by the soldiers for a horse
stable. In 1870 a movement was begun
for the rehabilitation of the church
and in 1881 Rev. S. A. Wallis became
its rector. Since then the church has
been used continuously for religious

MILITARY REWARDS IN ENGLAND.

Grant to Lord Roberts Is In Line with
the Country's Traditions.
The recent grant Of $500, 900 to Gen.
Lord Roberts for his services in South
Africa is in line witn the regular Brit
ish method Of rewarding military VIC
tors.
Lord Howard of Efingham, who de-
feated the Spanish Armada, was re-
warded with the Earldom of Noting
ham; Sir George Rookie, for his VIC
tory over the French at La Hogue in
1892, received a pension of E1,OOO, and
was knighted: but the system OF re-
ward for military service, of which the
grant to Lord Roberts is the latest in
stance, got its great start under Will
liam III. and Anne, when John
Churchill was promoted to the Duke
dom of Marlborough, and received at
first an annual and later a perpetual
pension Of $4,000 a year. Sir George
Byng was made Viscount Torrington
in 1921; and Robert Olive was made
an Irish baron in 1861 for his victories
in India. Admiral George Rodney was
created a baron in 1882, with a per-
petual pension of $4,000; Sir John
Jervis got an earldom and a pension
in 1898; and about the same time Sir
Adam Duncan secured a viscountcy
and a pension for a naval victory.

The declaration is made by an in

asserts that apples, and raw apples at
that, are the best diet on which to

of his father, a man of lzttars who
lived to the age of nearly 80. for apple
pudding, which he ate almost daily,
and for raw apples. which he ate
morning noon and night. He adds:
1T is surprising how many persons
fancy that raw apples are indigestible,
and only endurable in the early NOR
ing. Doubtless the old adage that

able for this, to my thinking. err

working late at night, say till II or l

or more, according to their size, with
a draught of good cider. constitute a
most agreeable and wholesome sup
per, and one that %conduces to a sound
and refreshing nights rest. But
apples, to be really beneficial, should
be eaten as children eat them, rind
and all. and in sufficient quantities to
be satisfying. The man who, first

1t is not generally realized that the
production of nitric acid and the va
rious nitrates by the combustion of at
mospheric nitrogen is one of the i'm
mediate possibilities of the future,
but such is really the Ase. The COM
bustion Of atmospheric air by means
of an induced electrical current has
already been accomplished on an ex-
perimental scale. In Sir William
Crooke's address before the British as
%sociation that authority stated that
sodium nitrate could be produced by
the aid of electricity at the rate of $26
a ton, basing the cost of power upon
that obtaining at Niagara Falls, while
the native nitrate brings about $3.50
a ton. If some other more economi-
cal source Of power be found-such, for
instance, as that furnished by the blast
furnace gases now wasted-this fig
ure may be even lowered.-M. l. Will

Though Wall street men dress well
as a rule, the brokers who do most of
their work on the floors of the several
exchanges seem at times like mobs of
oil clo'es men. Antique coats. rumpled
and rusty, are the rule, any old thing
that will stand the strain of much ell
bowling and some pulling and hauling.
Later in the day these men make
themselves more presentable; it Is
only while they are busy with the
gymnastics Of buying and selling that
they are a disreputable looking lot.

selves in the finest garments and come
and go in automobiles, but they do not
care for that sort of thing. They can
read their titles clear to lots and

auction room with money in their
pockets ready to take title to more
lands; why need they care for dress?
