There are some excellent and unobjection-

more than the value of his estate, and
does not give the tenant the full owner
ship that he desires to have, nor adequate
consideration for what he will have TO

and Ireland, for it puts an unnecessary
heavy charge on the Irish taxpayer for
reform from which England will derive
not only a large benefit, but a profit.
is questionable whether the tenants will
be very anxious to buy on the terms Of
fered. They will Sc the general unfairness
of the terms. but they may be driven to
accept whatever alienation of their pres
ent burdens is obtainable. as a hungry
man might pay shilling for loaf when
he knew the fair price should be four
pence.
A convention is to meet in Dublin TO
discuss the bill before il is read secondd

tween landlord, tenant, and Irish tax
payer could be clearly explained. 1 think
its rejection would be certain; but there
are many persons interested in and de-

passes, and it is not likely that country
farmers will form majority of the
speakers of the convention.

affections of the spiders resolve into
hatred when they are placed together in
captivity, and they kill and eat one an
other with the most delightful ferocity
if they are put in the same receptacle.
For this reason many cans are needed,
so that each spider may be relegated
to individual quarters
When in localities where tarantulas are
known to be numerous the boys search
diligently for the entrances TO the spider
homes, which are always designated by
white, silken week that outlines the
rim of the hole and gives a smooth and
elegant finish to the walls for an inch or
two below the surface. Tarantulas are
VIGOROUSLY lazy and seldom dredge out
their domestic establishments being quite
content to occupy some deserted gopher
hole, making no alterations in the gen.
eral arrangement of the place except
to hang the wall with gauzy drapery.
When the boys find promising looking

where in defeat and anguish they clash

The spiders are killed by immersion in
gasoline and turpentine. and a tub fun
of the writhing creatures presents an
original and startling appearance. Some
times in their death struggle they Crap

the royal family So the Princess Marie
is now effecting costumes of nun-lihe
simplicity,-bu she makes the gowns cost
almost as much as the most elaborate
ones.
The attraction between the dashing and
deboniar Princess and the quiet ard-de-
mure Miss Astor Is an Illustration of
the affinity of opposites.
The American girl and the future Queen
devote hours to the arrangement of the
works of art in the Princess apartments.
Miss Aston suggests the arrangement of
the flowers in the palace. The two young
women drive together every day, make
calls together and visit the royal palace
like sisters They dine with the King
and Queen and attend the Queens musi-
cal evening in the picturesque gallery
that has been converted into a music
room When the Princess Marie gives
a state reception Miss Astor receives with
her In short. Miss Aston is treated ex-
actly as if she was a member of the
court and the public so consider her.
1t Is quite easy to understand how the
unique position that she occupies might
make her fall in love with the capital
that is part eastern and part western.
The daughter of the Astors met lionel
Bratiano when she first visited bucharest,
and ever so many people are ready TO
declare that they fell in love with each
other Immediately. She is a charming
young woman. with an aloofness that is
supposed to mark the real aristocrat. but
which in her case is really a result of her
fathers peculiar ideas and training. She
has a prettiness that grows on one, and
she is highly educated.

name and viii inherit more money from
an old friend of his father. He owns

chief thoroughfare Of Bucharest. several
estates in the most fertile part of the
country and a fine castle in Florica,
where lives his mother. Pia Bratiano.
In person, Bratiano is tall. distinguished
and handsome. He has a most aristo-
cratic and at the same time, most Win
ming manner And he has accomplished
something. Miss Astor is still sufficiently
an American to delight in a man who
can make his own way, who is of some
use in the world.
