Princess Margaret's profile and the
contour of her face.
1t has been remarked more than
once that the sprightliness that is so
characteristic of both Princess Mar
garet and her younger sister, Princess
Patricia, must have come to them
from their amiable father, rather than
from the duchess, who never has fully
overcome the shyness that once was
almost a malady with her. She was
the daughter of Prince Charles Fred
erick of Prussia, and when first she
settled in England her timidity made
life a burden to her. At the first din
ner parties at which she was obliged
to preside as hostess she was so nerv-
Gus that she used never to dare to lift
glass of wine to her lips for fear of
splitting it, and even now she appears
at great functions as seldom as
possible, and infinitely prefers a
small dinner with two or three close
friends. Her married life, however,
has been fairly happy. She is proud
of the great popularity which her hus-
band, the duke, enjoys, and he relies
more than little on her tact and judy
ment.
For the first time, the Connaughts
are about to have home of their own
in London. Hitherto, this section of
the royal family has lived for the most
part at the dukes country place, Bag
shot park, in Surrey, and when in town
have had apartments in Buckingham
palace. Now, however, Clarence house,
the square saffron-colored mansion
hard by old St. James palace, is be-
ing entirely refitted for them. Until
recently it has been the home of the
kings widowed sister-in-law, the duch-
ess of Saxe-Coburg. The Connaughts
are to move in Immediately, and it is
expected that the duke will entertain
lavishly during the coronation sea-

Cure for Charmed Hand.

The maid of all work plunging her
hands in hot soapsuds and with them
half dried, perhaps, hanging clothes
in the wintry air will often suffer pain
fully from hand-chapping during the
cold weather. It is the thoughtful
mistress who will see that bowl of
Indian meal is kept in a convenient
place near the kitchen sink, and tile
girl encouraged to dip her hands, while
still moist from water, frequently into
the velvety grains. Afterwards, dry
the hands thoroughly.

Dainty Dish for Dainty Tastes.

To tempt capricious appetite try
chicken custard, which is very agree
able variation from the customary
chicken dishes. To a teacupful of good
chicken stock add similar quantity of
cream and cook for few moments in
a double boiler. When hot add the
beaten yolks of three eggs and pinch
of salt. AS the mixture begins to thick

Hint Worth Rem NIB srinx.

When buying a stair carpet get an
extra yard and fold in piece at each
end. If you do this you will be able
to shift the carpet, sometimes higher,
sometimes lower, and by this means
you will get it worn evenly all over, and
will not have the edges of the stairs
looking frayed and shabby, while parts
of the carpet remain untrodden and

Of the cage. This trigger Is baited
with salmon. When the bear bites the
bait the steel door will close on him.
The steel cage in which the United
States authorities hope to entertain
Mr.. Ursus Kadiakus until his transpor-
tIoh can be arranged was taken to
Alaska and erected on Kadiak ISL
and, under the supervision of Eli
wood Hofer, famous Yellowstone
trapper and guide, who is more famil-
larly known as BILLY" Hofer. This
cage, or tray, was designed and made
especially with a view Of accommodate
ing the Kadlak bear, and, should he
enter, it, 1t is probable he will stay in
1t until he arrives In Washington. The
cage will be hoisted on to a vessel at
the island and transferred to a fiat car
az Vancouver. At first the trigger
was baited with honey, but the foxes
Of Kadiak Island are much more in
quisitlve than bears, and, after a mum

First, as to the rackets. In England
the kind most favored have centres or

which the ball rebounds with that hum

exceeding in length the tiger, the grlz-
civ bear and the polar bear. There is

one in captivity, in the United states

Meanwhile the Alaska Commercial
Compapy. acting on behalf of the Uni

to capture a full-grown animal OF this
species. According to the New YORK

will answer. Take each length and
double and bend into shape shown in
the diagram. This Of itself may not be
quite stanch enough to hold the net
taut, but by running a cord from the
top of one wire support down and I'M
der the table to the top Of the other
support you should be able to obtain
the necessary amount of rigidity' The
net itself should be about six inches
high from the table, and should clear
the table by enough to allow the ball
to pass easily under it. Any material
will do for the net, though a gauze or
netting of some kind bound at the top
with an inch or two of white tape is
best. As to the table itself, 1t should
be simply smooth and fiat surface
about five by ten feet, or, say, four by
eight feet
The game is played exactly as ten
mis- is played, except that there Is but
one court on either side of the net. II
the ball strikes the very edge Of the
table and so bounces off in such way
that a return is impossible, call 1t an
ledger" and serve over again.
The method of scoring is the same
as in tennis. One rule Of the old game
which is barred because of the narrow
bounds is volleying. A ball can never
be returned, except on the bounce
Pickups, however, are allowable. An
other strict ruling Of ping-pong is that
no overland strokes are allowed; the
hand must never be raised above the
height of the elbow. Also the serve
must be delivered from point beyond
the end Of the table.
The tennis experts and all-round ath
letes have devised a new sort of racke
that makes of this parlor game rath
err strenuous and exciting affair.
The racket is simply a wooden pad
die Of about the same outside dimen
sions as the ping-pong strung racket
that is, about six inches in diameter
roughly speaking-the handle being o
any desired length
The paddle part is not Of one piec
with the handle, as 1t would break o
split too easily. The handle is splice
on. The paddle-on one side or both
according to how you play, is coyere
with emery cloth or paper guled o
carefully With this rough surfac
you can cut the ball or give the Law
ford" stroke in splendid fashion.
AS to balls, the best are those mad
of celluloid, which can be bought a
any sporting or toy store for a fey
cents apiece.

Genesis, almonds being a part Of the
present that Jacob sent to Joseph on
the return to Egypt of his sons with
their young brother, Benjamin.
Aaron's rod is said to be a branch of
the almond tree. The tree is of the same
family as the peach. and in Eastern
countries is cultivated, aside from it's
nut value. for the sake of its beautiful
flowers which resemble peach blossoms
in form, though Of q lighter color and
often white.
The flowers appear before the leaves,
and the bible employs this fact as
beautiful figure Of old age with its

But the most valuable and largest of all
nuts is the cocoanut, the fruit OF a
variety of palm tree originally found on
the coast of India. It is now met with in

nut tree bears from eighty to a hundred
nuts year, and is in bearing for seven
ty-five years. The nuts are the staple
