Rome, July Is, 4:10 a. m.-After
some sleep the pontiff appeared to be
again restless and required the fre-
quent assistance of DR.. Lapponi and
his valet.
The pope at midnight showed
less aversion to the nOurishment
offered him, and took half cup Of
consomme, piece of toast and few
sips of old wine.
Drs. Lapponi and Mazzoni abso-
lutely denied the statement published
in the United States that Pope Leo
is suffering from cancer, and ridicule
it as an ignorant invention. They
say they are sure that DR.. Rossoni
takes the same view.

Half fEducation a Tragedy

Hamilton Wright Mabie. author and
lecturer in an address to the High
School girls of Philadelphia, one day
this week made the statement that a
half education ir q tragedy. He said:
"The tragedy of this age is the life
Of the half educated man or woman.
No man or woman in this country need
stay I'm the position in which he or
she is born. 1t ought 70 be written in
the heart Of every young person that
fortune lies in his or her keeping. This
country is the freest field in the world
for a man or woman to work out his
or her destiny. 1t is absolutely es-
sential. however, that the man or the
woman should go to the task with
trained brain and trained hand.
"The greatest romance of this coun-
try is not political freedom and mater
ial development; it is the liberation OF
the individual. The greatest Of all
deeds is to make ones self free. But
we shall never be that in any real
sense until we have a far more search
ing national discipline than we have
today. When we read those terrible
stories Of mobs and of lynchings we be-
come aware Of the lack Of fundamental
education in America. the lack of q
sense Of the obligations of freedom
rather than a sense of its privileges"
In conclusion the speaker told the
pupils: There are no doors that YOU
cannot open If you have the courage
and the resolution and the intelligence
TO so forward"

nelnr a Good Cook.

Among the many qualifications indis-
pensable to the good housekeeper
stands pre-eminent that OF keing a
good cook. because that more than all
Else affects the health and spirits Of
the entire family. A growing family
Is no small responsibility. as mothers
heart viii own, and in order that the
children may become strong and ro-
bust their food should be as carefully
selected and prepared as the doctors
prescription. 1t should be regularly
served at stated hours and placed on
the table in attractive form at all
times, as outward appearances form
no small part In the enjoyment Of the
meal. The viands served in each
household are so various no rules can
or should be given except that in all
cases simple, wholesome food is far
preferable and really more palatable
than the indigestible dainties so often
placed ON the table. Therefore moth
Frs should teach their daughters that
great accomplishment. the secret of be-
ing a cook. Order and cleanliness may
well come on the housekeeping list. for
they also have no small part TO play in
the harmony of the family.

Color ana Temperament.

Few people seem to realize the really
strong effect that their color surround
ngs have on their temperament. 1t is
a great mistake to live in rooms pa
pered with dark wall papers. They
may be economical from the point Of
view Of not showing the dirt, but they
are really most disastrous to the spir-
its. A warm yellow or a good rose
pink looks cheerful and reminds one
of sunny days, while a pretty green,
not too vivid in tint, suggests the deli
cate lines Of spring. A paper covered
with a large pattern I'm dark colorings
somehow seems to lend a gloomy effect
to even the largest room, while there
are certain schemes of coloring that
hurt the eyes and tire one TO look at.
1t may interest readers to know that
green papers have the reputation of
fading sooner than any others, while
blue becomes a dirty sort of green If
exposed TO the sun, pink a terra Gotta
and yellow a sort Of Whitley brown.
none Of them very attractive perhaps
In this stage, but on the whole a faded
pink is the least depressing shade.

The conscientious mother wisely tries
TO train her bog for good citizenship
by teaching him TO govern himself
If parents could judge their own chill
dren as they judge other peoples there
would be few disagreeable men and
women in the world.
Young children should be fed at reg
ular intervals. Nothing so conduces 10
weak stomachs" as the practice OF
giving a child food simply because it
cries.
For a bean or anything up the nos
tiils make the child breathe a little
pepper or crumbled tobacco TO induce
a hearty sneeze. Don't try TO poke
the bean out.
Children should be encouraged to
have and make friends and play with
other children. It is a great mistake
ON the part Of an overcareful mother
to constantly protect and withdraw
her child from association with other
children.
A child may catch cold in winter by

why Frogs Are Cola

Many boys have probably wondered
why frogs are cold to the touch, and
some Of them look upon these little
,reatures with sort Of horror, be-
ieving that they have no blood. But
such is not the case, for they have not
)nly blood, but they possess nerves and
,an feel. Perhaps if this were more
generally known there would not be so
many heartless boys. who seem to take
special delight in torturing frogs ana
Dads. According TO scientists. frogs
ire cold blooded because they consume
'ery little air. 1t Is the same with
ishes. Without a plentiful supply OF
ar there is not much animal heat, be-
.ause combustion is slow.
