Monks ms Chauneurs.

The Grand st. Bernard monks made
their first trip recently from Martigny
to the st. Bernard hospice with their
new motor transport car, which has
been specially constructed to carry
heavy weights on steep gradients. The
car which is of forty horsepower, is
fitted with special tire coverings to
grip the snow and ice, says the Brook
Ign Eagle. Six monks from the hospice
recently went to Milan to learn the art
OF driving a motor car, and are now
expert chauffeurS.
Two monks, wearing the usual habit
and cowl, drove the heavy car loaded
with provisions and fire wood up the
mountain road to the hospice without
the slightest difficulty. Next season
the monks will start motor car serv-
fee for tourists from Martingy to the
hospice.

The mysteries of chop suey and 9TH

neapolis dispatch to the Philadelphia
Ledger. The makeup of the Chinese
delicacies has excited the curiosity of
Inspector Fowler of the Minnesota

dared the anger of the yellow cooks by
subjecting their connections to the hui
initiating ordeal of examination in an

If the analysis shows that the celes-

reckless daring that now thrills the

contemplated by the dairy and food

That Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., is able

Denver dispatch to the New York

waiter of the American House, where
the presidents son used his pencil as
he waited for his meal.
Theodore junior never has made a
special study of drawing, but he shows
natural aptitude for the work and an
especially keen appreciation of facial
outlines. When he entered the dining

leaned back in his chair, looked around
the room and then taking a pencil

the card was seized the moment young
Roosevelt left the table.

Mayor Stoy's threat to use women as

ton of the proper costume IN which
the fair cops are to be caparisoned.
Several women who want Jobs on the

them sent a letter to the mayor with Il

course said Mr.. Hicks recently. "a
partial outline of the course would be
this: First year, applied arts and ele-

mentary chemistry in its relation to
household duties and a continuation of
arts and sewing; third and fourth
years, cooking.
THE average girl who marrieS now
adayS is pitiably ignorant of the duties
the average man expects her to per-
form as his wife. She knows nothing
of cooking, usually. She must be
taught how to care for the invalid, the
foods he requires and the attention his
room must receive.
"She must learn of the care Of little
babies. Thousands of the little ones
are a daily sacrifice this hot weather
to mOtherly ignorance
she should know how economically
to do her marketing, economically in
the broader use of the word. She
should learn the value of proportion in
the preparation of the daily meals, how
some foods go better with others and
what foods are best at certain periods
of the year She should know also
when and how to put up fruits in the
form of preserves and jellies.

not move her head or her eyes, but
sits all day In one position, staring

be increased, and large number Of

ment Is almost universal among th Q

about $1,000 to be divided equally
between the city and school district,
should all the saloons continue In

would do so. In any event the rev.
anue Of the city and school district
would be materially increased, and

popular enough to secure third
term. He WIS made tho victim Of his
