 This addition to the public art works of Baltimore was made by the ladies of Maryland who belong to the Society of the Daughters of the Confectionery. Old soldiers of the blue and gray alike par ticipated in the impressive ceremonies of its uneviling.
 The story of the conception of the mon- ument is an interesting one. The sculp- tor had received a commission to model Confederate monument for Springfield, Mo. He had Striven for days for an in- spiration. One night at the opera of 'Tannhauser" the tremendous Wagnerian music brought it to him.

put back in the same conditions as they were before the treatment at the will of the experimenter. This last character istic is of great and exceptional import ance, for 1t proves that this kind of hyp- notic experiment is superior to the ex- periments in physiology and medicine. Hypnotism produces no lesions or or ganic destruction. The operation of hyp- notizing is a physiological procedure in the strict acceptation Of the word. The consequences may be extra physiological or pathological, owing to false experi- ments. such as the exaggerated prolonga- ton of the hypnotic state or neglecting to awaken the subject. ~
 In the Scientific Magazine M. Richet recently published an article on The Future of Psychology" in which he showed that the first problem 1t must solve is how to treat the cells of the brain; by hypnotism, of course, but it has a broader horizon. for he sees 1t practically applied to influencing in favor of justice, education. moral life in all its phases; in a word. psychology will mentally adjust the moral laws that gov- 'ern the world.

Selling Pistols in England.

LondOn Mall
 The bill for the regulation of the sale of firearms. which has already passed the second reading in the British House of Commons. was. on April 29. considered by the standing Committee on Law. The measure provides that persons must pro- duce a gun or game license when buying firearms.
 At present the law permits the indis- criminate purchasing of firearms, but in- sists that all persons who carry them shall take out a license. It is estimated that fully 50 per cent. of the firearms sold are bought by people who do not possess permits to subsequently, remove them from the shop.
 Numerous tragedies and accidents have resulted from this lack of supervision. Last year there were seventy shooting accidents in the United Kingdom. and during the first quarter of this year the following shooting cases were reported to the Home Ofice:
 Murders. .....................,..... III Suicides. ..'s.'''''''''.'''''''''' 10 Attempted suicides. .. ................ 2 Accidents. .. ........ ..................... II
 So far this month firearms have been responsible for:

'@V Recommendations in favor of an altera- ton in the law have been made by two Assize Judges. seven juries, and three Coroners. At the inquest on the body of Constable Hinder, who was found shot in Greenwich Park, it was stated that the deceased had bought a revolver from the same pawnbroker as the man who is charged with the Blackheath murder. Mir. Helme, M. P, who introduced the new bill. stated that the records of the

IRISH LEAVING IRELAND.
Emigration to the United States is
 Again on the Increase.

 The urgency of the Irish land legisla- ton introduced in Parliament is shown by the recently published statistics of Irish immigration. In 1902 there were 40.401 emigrants. or about 1 per cent. of the whole population, a slight increas0 over the year before. In the fifty years that emigrant statistics have bean kept the exodus has reached the enormous total of 3,921, ,222 of which over half wer@ males. As emigration, reached 1o0.0Oo in 1852. the highest figure since the cdlleo- ton of statistics was begun, 1t is fair to infer that the loss of population be- tween 1S46 and 1851 was proportionateiy large. Mir. Mulhall estimated that the loss due to famine and to typhus. supeR~ induced by lack of nourishment. amount. ed to about 1,25O,00O between 1eAS and 1s4S Tn short, the population of Ireland has been halved in half century. Iu' is noteworthy that if the loss by famine and disease was naturally among the aged and the weak. the loss by emigra~ tion was almost entirely confined to th0 flower of the population-young men ana women who turned their faces westward to seek a living. The figures naturally fiuctuate. but those who saw a permar- nent diminution of the drain on the pop ulation when the number of emigrants fell off to 32 ,21 in 1898 must consider the latest figures. American statistics of tm- migration for the first four months of this year show that S.2O6 Irish landed in the United States during that period. double the number which landed during the same period year ago.
 In the face of such figures 1t is nos astonishing that. the English Government proposes radical, legislation to remedy theI conditions which cause emigration. It is ipoomprehensible to any but Englishman that notiaing should have been done be- fore. Under the most favorable condi| tions 1t will take generations for the 4,OOO 900 people who remain in Ireland Co restore the population to its former num- bers.
 The Irish land bill will afford reiiefs but the English Government cannot undo what has been done It can help. 1t can remove some of the causes for emigra- tion, but remedial action in 1908 is like shutting the stable door after the horse has been stolen.

Those who are gifted with the power of observation and appreciation know full well that each section of this wonderful country is endowed with It's own pecu liar charm. Of no State is this more absolutely true than of Virginia.
 The fortunate man is he who enjoys so thoroughly each experience that he seems to absorb the local color. and, fol the time being becomes part and parce of the place. Not one detail that goes to make up a charming whole is lost upon him. Such a visitor is ever welcome and in his honor is given a Virginia supper. 44
 Try to picture to yourself the dear substantial old house, with wide lawns left is the flower garden. filled with the sweet, old-fashioned flowers: on the right, beyond the lawn, are broad fields of waving blue grass; in the rear is the beautiful Potomac.

The large windws are opened wide to the evening breeze, and there comes in gent ly with the odor of roses and honey suckie. the drone of the lazy bee and the gentle whir of the dainty hummfng bird The broad table of rich, claret-colored mahogany has been rubbed with careful hands unil it seems to glow. The plate mats and doilies are old-fashioned cro- chet work, so fine as to look like lace. The table is lit with wax candles in tall, fluted silver candlesticks without shades. The compete dish and goblets are of colonial cut-glass. The center piece is a salver of chased silver. On this Is @ broad silver bowl, with tall slender, stem. It is filled with wide-open blush roses, starry jasmine and trailing honeysuckle, one large rose seems from it's weight to have fallen and lies upon the table.

A Boon Indeed.

It is indeed a boon, says a writer in The New York Evening Pst, to man or woman to be in unity with friend who thinks more highly of them than they do of themselves-one who makes de- mands on those hidden repositories of good and of power which this friend be- lieves to exist To feel that you are ac- counted generous. unselfish, and ready to put your shoulder to the wheel of progress" inspires an involuntary de- sire to meet the expectation that love has formed of your character, and the appeals of meaner things look despicable in your eyes. when, without the incentive of this waiting trustfulness. you might have proved unworthy.
 In married life this is especially true. and of the highest value in the founding and maintenance of a home. There is toe little friendship in married life-too little guarding of the strong foundations of so- Der esteem as the cement which holds passionate love true to its object.
 When a man comes to that unavoidable place in life's journey, let it begin where 1t may, that causes him to think less eag- erly of how he may give his wife pleas ure, than of how he may live up to her conception of him as a noble nature; her questioning eyes are to him of more value than many homilies.
 For man to know that the woman he loves is less concerned as to his good looks, or charm of manner. or financial success, than with the certainty that he Is true and spotless in his dealings and at one with the great things which stir mems hearts. is of infinite value to him. To realize that to find him less than the soul of honor would break her heart. makes a trick of trade look very diff ferent in his eyes. The friend who con tinuaIly demands of us, by trust and expectation, the best of which we are capable, is of infinite value. and when

 And How to Prepare It.


why should folks fo'ce you to eat cole breadT
 Beaten Biscuit.
 Add a teaspoonful of salt and tea spoonful of butter to one quart of flour Rub them together. then add a cupful of milk and, if necessary, c little water, making a stif dough.
 Place the dough on . firm table or block, beat it with a mallet or rolling pin for fully half an hour, or until it becomes brittle. Spread it half an inch thick, cut into very small circles and prick each one with a fork; bake in a hot oven about twenty minutes. The en- tire success of these biscuits depends en- tirely upon the thorough mixing and beating. When beaten, try the dough by breaking off a piece; 1t should snap. When well beaten 1t is very white.
 How to Cook an Old Ham.
 It is of the first importance to get . three-year-old ham from Kentucky or Virginia, from some one who understands beyond a question how a ham should be cured. They are hard to find. but we'll worth the effort. Keep the ham under running water one night The next morn ing boil it until the skin may be peeled off. Then put it in a ham boiler filled with water and sherry. the proportion half to half. The sherry used may be an inexpensive California brand. Add to the water and sherry several handfuls of timothy hay, heads and all, chopped fine. Let the ham simmer gently all day. at intervals piercing 1t with a skewer. When the water has almost boiled away take out the ham. cover 1t we'll with dough. bake until the dough cracks and comes off easily. Baste the top and sides of the ham with sugar water, shed it with cloves. put it in the oven just long enough to let the sugar and water dry out; garnish with thin circles of lemon. let 1t get perfectly cold, and then cut in thin, delicate slices.
 Wafies.
 One pint sour cream.
 Two eggs.
 One pint flour. One tablespoonful corn meal.
 One-half teaspoonful soda.
 Beat yolks separately. mix cream with the yolks; after they are well beaten stir in flour with corn meal. All the soda and whites of eggs beaten to a stiff froth just before baking. If the batter is a little stiff, bring to the proper consist ency with sweet milk. The whites of eggs should be put in just before cook ing.
 Chickens, Baltimore Style.
 Young spring chickens only are used for broiling. Spit them down the back. remove the breastbone. wipe them clean and sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub them with soft butter.
 Place them over a slow fire. the inside down. cover with pan, and let cook for twenty to twenty-five minutes. Turn to let the skin brown when nearly done. Place them on a hot dish and spread them with maitre d'hotel sauce. garnish with water cress and crisp pieces Of breakfast bacon.
