Heart-Broken Queens Appeal.

Queen Natalie of Servia has invoked
the intervention of Emperor Francis
Joseph with the Servian government,
with the object of securing permission
for the transfer of the body of her muir
dered son from it's temporary tomb at
Belgrade to the monastery of kruz-
sedel, on Hungarian soil, where lillian
already repoSes under a magnificent
monument erected by the Austrian en-
peror at his own expense when the ex-
lied king died at Vienna, almost desti-
tute, and abandoned by his only son.
Queen Natalie proposes to raise mon
ument to her son similar to that Of
Milan in the event of being able to OBJ
tain the transfer of Alexander's re
mains. But, of course, she will not
hear of Queen Draga having any share
in these post-mortem honors, or being
moved to the monastery.
1t is probable that King Peter and
his government will comply with En-
grant the necessary authorization to
Queen Natalie. since the presence of
the remains of the murdered king at
Belgrade is neither agreeable to his
successor. nor altogether polite, as
there is always the danger of his grave
there becoming the object of a popu-
lar demonstration against King Peter
and his administration. Moreover, the
separation of the murdered king and
queen in death by AleXander's mother,
acting in. conjunction with the Austrian
government, will serve in a measure
to confirm the contention of the regi-
cides that Draga was quite as dis
reputable as they alleged and that they
were. therefore. justified in removing
her from the throne, where her pres
ence constituted national disgrace.

CONTRACT SYSTEM CONDEMNED.

How often do you find a public Of
fetal who is willing to bear the storm
of newspaper criticism and trumped up
public indignation i'm order to follow
his own judgment and award the con-
tract to a higher bidder. even if he has
the legal right TO do so? The result
is that the public work under the low
est bidder" rule must be let either 10
the adventurer or the crook. while the
taxpayer pays the freight To such
an extent has this gone, and so well
understood is it that the honest con-
tractor has little or no chance when it
comes to bidding upon public work that
a man or firm known to be engaged in
business of securing public contracts
soon comes to be looked upon as little
short of a criminal and such methods
of doing business are regarded with
suspicion by all classes Of business
men. The contract system has done
more to corrupt public officials and
lower the standard of official integrity
than any other one cause save the
granting of franchises to quasi public
corporations, which leaves all other in
ducements to official crookedness.-

Marrying For Homes.

No true woman is Indifferent to home
and all that it means to herself and
others.
The more truly womanly she is the
more she appreciates and values it.
But to marry for the homes sake is
like buying a picture for its frame, or
valuing the binding of the book above
the book itself.
No one can make the home a more
important thing in married life than
the man one marries, and in no possible
case can the home satisfy one if the
husband fails.
Love for the man one marries will
make a home of an attic, or the wealth
er-side of a hedge-row.
But married life, where the home
comes first and the husband second, or
a bad third, is htdeous travesty of
what it was meant to be, and it can
never draw anything but a blank in the
marriage lottery.
The girl who marries for home has
provided herself for the best of her
days with a cage, which she must halve
with another being.
The girl who marries for a home is
as mistaken as the man who marries
for a housekeeper.

PAGAN SPIRIT oF CREED.

Chautauqua. N. Y. July 19.-The
Rev. Alexander p. Doyle, editor Of the
Catholic World, made a spirited re-
Spouse today to a recent utterance Of
Dr. Andrew S. Draper, recently the
president of the University of Illinois,
in an address to a graduating class, in
which DR.. Draper said:
You need not expect that people will
stand aside because you have come.
They are going to crowd you. and you
will have to crowd them. They will
leave you behind unless you leave them
behind"
Father Doyle continued: 'In other
words, the head of the public school
system of this state says that life is -
mad, furious race for a coveted prize,
and the competitors can succeed only
by kicking and pounding and pushing
each out of the others way.
This pagan spirit of selfish greed IS
dianietrically opposed to the Christian
idea of loving service. This is the doc
trine which is working the greatest
harm to our political, industrial and
family life today

Nuts as Food,

Peanuts, English walnuts, filberts'
pine nuts and hickory nuts build up
the tissues of the body.
Almonds. pine nuts and peanuts
contain the food values of the other
nuts in high proportions.
Heat and energy are produced by
nuts rich in oil, such as black Walnuts,
butternuts. Brazil nuts and cocoanuts.
For diabetes a valuable soup may he
made of spinach, celery or turnips,
thickened with almonds, pine nuts or
Brazil nut butter.
Nuts are Indispensable to the vegeta-
rian, making up for such items as
meat, milk and butter. Better yet,
they are free from disease germs.
Chestnuts and chinquapins are
starchy nuts, and. therefore, must be

are more wholesome when cooked.
Pine nuts grow on the dry hills of
Colorado and California in profusion.
They are cheap. as there. is no waste
They should be washed and dried.

we eat the kernal and reject the out

The Girl Who Works.

The girl who earns her own money
should endeavor to save a portion of it
from each payment. No matter how
small the payment may be it will be
forming a wise habit to lay part of it
aside. At the end of the year quite
little sum is realized that can be turned
to good advantage. A more intelligent
sense of what constitutes thrift and
economy is needed, especially among
women of the working classes. 1t is the
easiest thing in the world to spend
money, but we all find it difficult to
save it. To study ones needs and sup
! ply them in accordance with ones cir
cumstances is making the best results
out of our limitations. The girl who
works all day will be greatly benefited
by belonging to some good literary club

A Few Points on Canning Fruits.

To some people, canning fruit is one
of the biggest bugbear of their house
hold duties. They dread it, and from
the time the first berries and cherries
make their appearance, until the last
peach and pear have been taken care
of. they live in constant fear of their
fruit fermenting and spelling. With
myself, while it is a work that / have
no fear as to the result, it is always
atisfactory-always what l intend II
shall be--a success.
In canning fruit for sauce, I meas
enough raw fruit, as near shrdluuuuu
ure into my preserving kettle only
enough raw fruit, as near as [ can
guess to fill one jar when it is cooked.
This method may seem very tedious to
some but in the end 1T pays, for in
this way the fruit has a. chance to be
thoroughly cooked without crowding
and the danger of cooking it too much
is also lessened. To save time, one
can have several kettles over the fire
at once, but do not try to expedite
matters by cooking a large quantity
of fruit all together. I have seen it
tried number of times. with always
the same result; if not absolutely sour
when opened it would be fiat failure.
Another important point which
should be carefully watched is to have
the jars perfectly air-tight, and in US
ing the self sealers. if the tops do not
screw on sufficiently tight with one
rubber add an extra one. This should
remedy the trouble, which is caused
by the jars being uneven or defective
at the mouth.
After the fruit is canned. protect
from. the light by wrapping paper
around each jar. or, better still, fill
the boxes tie jars came in when pur-
chased. and set in place with as lit
tie change of temperature as possible.
There will be no danger of its spelling
if it has been properly cooked.-Emma

That they must speak respectfully to

That bawling over business is I'M

That they should not appeal from the
