STRANGE, ISN'T IT?

A woman sees a hat or bonnet in a
milliners window. 1t is In the latest
style, so she determines to have that
hat-or one just like it.
No use to try to dissuade her-she
wants that kind of a hat. No other
will suit her.
There she displays her will power,
and probably does the same with
everything she buys for herself or her
family. She makes, as II were, fem
mime declaration of independence"
Is 1t not surprising, therefore to find
some few women who still allow their
grocers to choose for them in import
ant matters like foodstuffs?
In spite of the fact that grocers as a
rule have long ago realized the neces-
sity of catering to their customers
rather than their own desires, there
are still few of the other kind left,
who show a marked inclination to per-
suade customers to take what they do
not ask for, or desire.
Take Lion Coffee, for instance, the
leader OF all package coffees, an estab-
lished favorite for over twenty-five
years in millions Of homes, on account
of its absolutely pure and uniform
quality.
Wouldn't you thing II impossible
that a single grocer can still exist who
would oppose such an invincible argu-
ment Of merit, by trying to persuade
a customer to buy loose coffee in pref
erence to Lion Coffee?
Loose coffee has no standard quality
nobody can guarantee that 1t Is
even clean.
OF course, really independent and
intelligent women know this, and 80
do up-to-date grocers, but If women
about hats, no kind of grocer could be
without Lion Coffee.

Any roof paint should be made of
pure linseed oil and white lead, shad-
ed any color desired. Green or terra
Gotta looks well, but red should be
avoided. The correct way to paint a
single roof is to dip the shingles be-
fore they are put on. If painted after
wards they do not last as long as
when not painted, as the moisture
gets below the shingles, and, being
damned there by the paint, tends tc
produce decay A good way to apply
paint to shingles is to dip the small
end in the paint and run it through q
rubber clothes wringer. This spreads
the paint over the surface If the roof
is shingled 1t would be well to tint II
with stain, which is put up by large
paint-making firms.
2. Galvanized iron is better than
zinc for crossing joints or cutters on
a roof. The strips should be not less
than Is inches and they should be
put on before the shingles.

IRISH ENVOY FROM SPAIN.

King Alfonso selected st. Patrick's $
day for appointing as his new envoy
to the United States diplomat of Irish
descent, bearing an Irish name and
chief of family which is so proud OF
its Irish origin that it celebrates St
Patrick's day each year in the chapel
bearing its name that forms part of the
ancient parish church of Ortova.
The envoy's name is Don Bernardo de
Cologan, Marquis de la Gambia, and he
is descended from the Irish family of
McClogans, of County Meath. After
the battle of the Boyne, the McColgans,
in common with many of the old Cath
olc families of Ireland, who had re-
mained faithful to the Stuart dynasty,
were exiled. Known as the wild
Geese they migrated to Spain, som2

TIE FALL OE RALEOuR.

The Balfour government draws nsar
the abyss of dissolution. The ears of
England's premier have been greeted
III the house of commons with demands
for his resignation The scene of up-
road in the house on the night when
the head of the British government
hurriedly fled from the parliamentary
chamber, because of the demands of
men who once supported his admins
tration, has not been duplicated at any
period in the hostiry of the house of
commons.
Premier Balfour. had he the spirit of
Gladstone, would have resigned
months ago. His power has been on
the Wane since Chamberlain and other
followers deserted his camp. He has
clung to Office by the wavering force
Of an uncertain majority; with the
tenacity which characterized his uncle.
the late Marquis of Salisbury. and with
the audacity which is striking trait
in the character of the Cecil family.
OF which Balfour is a branch Mr.. Bal
tour has shed no benefits on Ireland.
His brother Gerald when chief score
tary of that country was a tyranizing,
unsympathetic official-a man who,
when Ireland was passing through a
cloud OF famine such as now shrouds
her IN gloom, asked did the Irish peo-
pie want champagne and costly lux
uries.
Under the nom de plume OF "Alci-
phron," a writer in magazine, of the
current month, which is widely read in
England and this country, says of Pre-
mier Balfour: You offer today, Mr.
Balfour, the great paradox of being
the public man of England most
laughed at, and at the same time most
loved. If today the political tide seems
TO be running against you. you may at
least have the satisfaction of knowing
that you yourself worked out with pre-
clSion, ten years ago, the process of
your own decay" The weather vane
policy of Premier Balfour, and his re-
nunciation of promises made to the
irish party have fastened his down
taH. The Irish parliamentary party is
not the despised "rabble" of the past
1t can make itself felt in the house of
commons, no matter what government
IS in power. Had Balfour been true to
his pledges, had he entered zealously
INTO the work which would have given
ireland relief from oppressive BURDEN;
had he stirred his adherents into
granting Ireland, if not immediate
home rule. many measures justly need
ed by the Irish people, cries of resign
would not ring through the housa of
commons.

over Balfour's downfall He placated,

AN OLD IRISH AIR.

Interest has been revived in w. j.
Ashcroft's song, The Solid Man, first
given in Belfast about twenty-five
years ago-which reminds a musical
correspondent of the Freemans Jour
nal of Dublin that the melody to which
it is set IS the old irish air variously
known as ''Youghal Harbour" and
Castle Hyde" In 1880 this melody
was very popular in Scotland. and was
adapted to song called "Bonie Bell"
Robert Burns was much taken with
the melody, and set new words to it.
commencing, The Smiling Spring
Comes in Rejoicing" Both words and
music. as supplied by Burns, appeared
in the Scots Musical Museum in 1892,
and manuscript of the song is among
the Burns papers in the British mu-
scum.
1t is not generally known that the
Scottish bard adapted more than fifty
Irish melodies, many of which are in
consequence regarded as indigenous to
Scotland, though their origin is be-
yond question.-Pilot.

Several years ago Father Quinn

One day while wandering over the
island he came upon an institution
of learning for women. Father Quinn
