THE OLDEST DOLL IN
AMERICA
rom the Holiday Magazine:

FROM the tiOllQaV magazine:
Long, long ago, when William Penn
sailed from England on his second visit
to America, what do you think he
brought with him on the good ship
Canterbury? An English doll. This
passenger is the sole survivor Of that
voyage across the Atlantic, which was
made over two hundred years ago.
William Penn had q little daughter
Their tell wonderful tales Of what. he
saw and heard in Pennsylvania on his
first visit to this country, thousands of
miles distant from Letitia's home. He
often told her about little Miss Ran
kin, who, living as she did in the viii
derness of Pennsylvania for this was
long ago. remenlber), had no toys at all,
not even one rag doll. When Letitia s
father was getting ready to again cross
the ocean to America. his little girl in
sisted upon sending a doll to that lone
some little girl.
| So doll was dressed in a court cos"
tune Of striped and delicately tinted
! brocade and velvet The skirt was hel6
out by enormous hoops. for such. was
| the fashion Of the well-dressed ladies
| Of that period. The doll itself is twenty
inches high and has the long waist anc
slender form Of the court beauties she
left in her native land. Her hair il
rolled back from her face. much in thu
style Of today.
! This doll now lives in Montgomery
county, Md, in the strictest seclusion
t She Is only removed from her careful
wrappings when little girls desire thu
honor of making the acquaintance 70

JAPANESE WAR CHARM.

From Leslie's Monthly:
The custom of the Sen Min Riki is
one that has risen in Japan during the
present war. Ever since the war be-
gan, at all times Of the day, and even
night, small groups Of women can be
seen gathering in the streets; one or
more of the women will have piece
Of cotton cloth with one thousand
marks or dots stamped upon it. "Sen"
is the Japanese word for one thous-
and. min" is the word for human be-
ing-either man or woman. "Riki' is.
in the Japanese language, strength. In
combination the words mean 1.-The
strength Of one Thousand people"
Each one of these one thousand dots
or marks in the cloth are to indicate
the place where a stitch or knot is tc
be made by a woman, who, while MAX
ing this knot, gives her best thought
wish or prayer for the safety and pro-
lection Of the soldier who will wear
this piece of cotton cloth as an "obi'
or belt while fighting for Eis country
The prayers Of one thousand women
for one man are believed to protect
him from all dangers and to give him
strength to overcome and conquer the
enemies of his beloved Japan.

PAPAL FINANCIERING.
From Chambers Journal:

from chambers journal:
The capital which gives the pontifc
sure income is, proportionately, very
limited. When Plus TX died it amount
ed to e1,200,00, but Leo XIII, Wishing
to augment it, was induced to partici-
pate in several risky financial enter
prises, which ended in a severe dis
aster in 1898, when the holy see lost
100000 The former pontiff, who was
rather parsimonious with his money,
felt the reverse most keen1y, and set
himself to repair it by all means in
his power; and he succeeded, as ten
years after, speaking to a cardinal
only a few months before his death,
| he said that half Of the money lost
had been recovered. BY this, however
he meant that he had succeeded In
saving enough from the Interest OF
the 100000 which was left to him
after the failure to bring that capital
up to 100000. Independently from
this, out of the offerings made directly
| to his in the twenty five years Of his
pontifcate, he succeeded in putting
aside over 100000 SO that, contrary
! to what Is generally believed, he left
| to his successor more than he had him
| self received from his predecesso or
This is much more remarkable when i
is considered that Leo XIII, although
he had the reputation of being almos
a miser, spent as pope &2,000,00C II

AUTHORS DAUGHTER SINGS.
Ethel Bret Harte Forced to Earn Liv
inQ in Concerts.

ing in Concerts.
From the Chicago Chronicle:
Miss Ethel Bret Harte, the daughter
Of the famous writer of early Califor-
mia life, has decided to devote herself
to concert work. Although Bret Harte
made large profits from his writings
and won a, success which seldom
comes to a. writer as early as it did
to him, he left his family in very
straitened -: circumstances, and If it
were not for the many staunch friends
in the American colony in London
Mrs. Bret Harte would often find it
difficult to make both ends meet With
her children she has made her home in
Bayswater ever since Bret Harte's
death. The family difficulties have
been complicated by threatened loss of
sight of one of the sons and he has
been sent to Switzerland in the hope
that a renowned oculist may perform
successful operation.
Miss Bret Harte has had a long up
hill struggle in her work. She served
a stage apprenticeship with George Ed
wards and DOyly' Carte. She has a
soprano voice Of excellent range and
sympathetic quality and her one de-
sire is to bring it to greater perfec-
ton. Her capacity for work seems
endless and her love of: music, is as
much Of an: incentive as the: ;: money
which she hopes to. bring into the fam
lily purse. 1t is extremely difficult to
get a hearing, on: the concert stage in
London, where only the well KIN own
artists are invited to sing but through
the influence ofa}sthe friends Of the
American author: his daughter will
have every opportunity to make the
success which her friends anticipate.
