ROYAL PEDIGREE.
From This Account 1t VIII BE Seer
That Everybody in England
Must Have One.

Some years ago, says a writer in
London Truth, I had little passage
alarms with a gentleman who was
prepared to prove the royal descent
of almost any man in the street, for
a payment of 91O down. When I
limited some doubt of his bona fides,
he called upon me and showed, by a
fairly plausible argument, that al
most everybody has royal blood in
his veins, if he only knew it. When
you remember, On the one hand, that
you had two grandfathers and two
grandma others, eight ancestors in the
previous generation, 16 in the gener-
alton before that, and so on, and, on
the other, that as you go back the
population of the country decreases
at the time of the conquest it was
probably not a tenth OF what it is
now-you can easily see that the
present inhabitants of these islands
could not all be supplied with an
cestors unless the same people were
used over and over again. Each an
cestor must, in fact do duty for so
many descendants that the probable
itv is that we all of us have a great
MANY of them in common. That is
why the majority of people have
royal progenitors somewhere in the
dim vista of the past.

GREENS as SPRING TONIC.
Gus Herbs Are HeaIthfuI 1T
This Season.

At the beginning of spring there
comes an uncomfortable longing for
:resh, green vegetables and acids. The
same feeling possesses the sailor far
away at sea-a longing which produces
disease if neglected for too long pc
Rod. History tells of entire commun-
tiles in the virgin forests of the new
world who persisted in winter from
scurFy. In one case colony from the
old world was saved by the discovery
OF cranberry bed under the snow,
out of which the fruit was quickly dug
and gave the necessary vegetable acid
to the suffering colony.
In these modern days, when tropical
fruit and green vegetables are brought
to market in abundance in winter, one
can hardly realize the suffering from
scurvy after the long shut-in period in
olden times. AS late as the eighteenth
century there was a scarcity of acid
foods in the early spring. The rhu-
barb plant was then welcome as an an
tiscorbutic, because it could be OBJ
tanned so much earlier than any fruit
that ripens in the fields, gardens OF
orchards. Its early name of spring
fruit shows for what purpose it was
chiefly used, as a substitute for stewed
fruit. The value of the fresh, acid
quality of the rhubarb makes it SUI
perior (on the score of healthy to any
canned, dried or preserved fruit, and
1T was known to our ancestors as one
of the best antiscorbutic foods that
could be obtained. To-day, when the
horrors of scurvy are no longer to be
feared in the civilized world, there is
still, however. a suggestion of the old
trouble that comes in the spring from
the need of the good green herbs of the
earth and of acid fruits, says the New
York Tribune.
Though rhubarb is no longer a neces-
sity to health. it is plant which should
not be neglected, but stewed regularly
when fresh, as a spring tonic, good for
young and old. Remember TO cut the
rhubarb without peeling it. Season it
lightly with sugar. Stew it slowly in
an old-fashioned porcelain pipkin. Like
lettuce salad, it is one of the best and
most certain remedies for the tired
worn feeling of spring that can posi-
bly, be given the family.
Use salads freely at this season OF
the year. and stews of good green
herbs, like spinach, sorrel and any pot
herbs. Healthy people eat dandelion
greens as eagerly a s healthy animals
eat grass. They fill want that moth
ing else seems to do. People were
healthier in the old-fashioned times
when they gathered the greens from
the good earth and cooked them as
soon as they were gathered.

HOUSEHOLD WISDOM.
Items of Information Cleaned from
Reliable Sources for the
Busy Housewife.

When black calicoes have to be
starched, use weak coffee instead OF
water.
If windows have to be cleaned in
zero weather, dampen the cloth with
alcohol instead of water. 1t will pre-
vent an ice film forming on the glass
When potatoes have been slightly
touched by frost, soak them an hour
OF two before cooking in cold water
chemist calls gelatine, milk and
onions scavengers of the air. 1t is
a wise plan never to leave them un-
covered for the attraction of germs.
A good thing for cleaning brass or
copper is sweet oil and putty powder.
Afterward, wash in hot water and
soap, then polish.
Do not starch curtains while they
are wet; they will soil much faster
than if allowed to dry beforehand.
When you wish to keep boiled or
