FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
Youth Of Queen lsabe LA. the Friend Of
Columbus.

Every American boy should be
interested in the history of the
great queen of Spain who pawned
her jewels to buy vessels with which
to send Christopher Columbia out
to discover the new world.
Isabella was born April %, 1851,
at Madrigal, Spain. Her father,
King John, was king of CASTLE,
then separate kingdom, now only
a province of Spain. She was named
in honor of her mother, a princess
of Portugal, who brought up her
daughter very simply in the obscure
village of Arevale. At the age Of
eleven the little princess was be-
trothed to Prince Carlos of Aragon,
who was cruelty poisoned. Other
matches were arranged for her, but
with great spirit the princess re-
fused them and insisted on marry
ing Prince Ferdinand of Aragon.
Isabella was heiress to the throne,
SO her marriage was matter or
great Importance to the country.
October, 1869, after romantic
courtship Ferdinand was married to
his sweetheart at Valladolid, Spain,
and her brother, the king, dying,
she was proclaimed queen Of CASTLE
Dec. -, 1474. When, in January,
1873, Prince Ferdinand succeeded
to the throne Of AragAn, the two
kingdoms were united, and the peace
of the Spanish peninsula seemed as.
sured. 1t was under the reign Of
Ferdinand that the Moors were ex-
PEELED from Spain and driven back
to Africa. In 1902, against the adj
vice of the court, the queen pawned
her jewels to help the needy adven-
turer, Christopher Columbus, whose
discovery of a new continent was
the glory of her land and reign.
This good and wise queen died at
Medina del Campo, Spain, Nov. rs,
1904,

PLAYERS. who start at the other line.
The one who is ut" counts ten rap

says "Ten.' they stand still in
whatever attitude they may be at
the moment. He turns his head
quickly and calls the name of any
player or players whom he sees NOV
ing. Any thus caught moving have
to go back to the starting line and
begin over, while the counter re-
peats the count of ten and the play
ers again move forward. The OBJ
ject of the game is to cross the
counters line without being seen in
motion by him. The last one ove1
changes places with the counter.

that meal. Ripe fruit rarely if ever
digests properly when eaten after
other food. Its place in the dietary
is undoubtedly in between more SOL
id repasts. Cooked fruit should
form part of course or possibly
the, entire portion of the sweet
course at luncheon or dinner and,
indeed, at breakfast also, if you will,
for with many people cooked fruit is
never better liked than at the table
set for the first meal Of the day.
