The intelligent housewife

knows that she is the home maker as we'll,
and that whether she shall have home her
self, and make one for her husband, depends
on her knowlege, her wit, her good taste,
and her ability. Let every wife make much
of the family table. At it she presides as
the chiefest charm and ornament. Whether
the table furnishings be rich or plain, if the
wife be neatly and prettily dressed, polite
and amiable, the husband will be proud and
happy. A meal is always feast with
lovely woman at the head of the table. But
who may tell of the meal that follows-the
well cooked food, not gross in supply, but
abundant, the shining dishes, the snowy
linen, the luster of steel and silver, the
loyeliness of happy woman all aglow with
pride and pleasure, and the coffee CHASE

odor of which is as of some rare incense
from unseen censers swinging through the
room. Verify, the woman who can make
happy table for her husband is not only

PALMA'S MESSAGE.
President-Elect of Cuba at Work on
the cument-Outline Of His
Policy.

Havana, May President-elect
Estrada Palma arrived Tuesday at
Cienfuegos on board the steamer Jul
liza. Thousands of persons focked to
the wharf to welcome him there.
He employed his time while on the
way from Santiago to Cienfuegos in
outlining his first message to the Gu
ban congress. It is said that in this
message he will signify his intention
OF making Cuba's foreign policy one
OF close relations with all ma lions, and
especially with Spain.
He will accentuate in this message
the profound feeling of gratitude which
Cuba owes the United States, and he
will declare the latter country has
given the whole world an example of
its political sincerity by honorably
fulfilling the joint resolution of con-
gress in making the Cuban people free.
He will urge the union of all political
factions in Cuba and say he counts on
the cooperation and good faith of the
SDaniards in the island
lie will declare himself as opposed
to commercial treaty between Cuba
and the United States until it is known
that the reduction of the American
duty on Cuban sugar is to be more
than 25 per cent, and will say he feels
sure that this reduction will amount
to 80 per cent. of the present duty.
The president will make no estimate
for war expenses nor for the mainte-
nance of the Cuban navy. He will ad-
wise the Cuban government to distrib-
ute cattle among the poor farmers of
the island, who will pay therefor in
installments. He will recommend the
cultivation of coffee and fruit in Cuba,
and say that the island should not rely
solely upon it's tobacco and sugar
crops.
The message will say that the presi-
dent considers the Isle of Pines useless
to the United States on account of the
shallow water there. He will not con-
sent that any flag other than the Gu
ban be raised at Havana. He will pro-
pose that the work of sanitation be-
gun by the Americans be continued,
and he will urge the need of hospitals.
There is to be no change in the coin
age of Cuba at present, but Senior Pal
ma will say he intends to raise a loan
to pay the Cuban revolutionary army
when Cuba has money to pay the in
terest on this loan
