is the property Of a club and of which
the young King Is president and of
which the members belong to the high

he often has recourse to pigeon-shoot-

Except when he makes an extended
excursion, the King returns to the pal

takes tea, If he has not already done so.
Between the time of his return and the
evening meal he again gives himself up
to study. Formerly he also took adj
vantage of this interval to practice
fencing, at which he is an adept.
Dinner is fixed for eight o'clock. AT
this meal are present, besides the royal

About
Pure
Foods

A very important part Of the
present agitation for pure food, is
the source of our butter supply.
The old-fashioned farm dairy, like
many other things good enough
for their time, has given place to
better methods and a purer pro-
duct. To-day, great creameries,
centrally located, gather milk and
cream from outlying territory and
manufacture butter on proper
tionately large scale.
One great creamery--the largest
in the world, and the only one
privileged to use the odor-
proof package has SO improved,
moderhized, and perfected the
butter-making process, that its

remarked a locomotive fireman. Each
man has distinctive blast which is as
plain as spoken language to his fellow
employees and is frequently familiar to
the members of his family.
Often the home people of the en-
gineers are skilled in detecting partic-
ular whistle sounds as are the railroad
men themselves 1t is a frequent oc-
currenee to see an engineers wife, with
perhaps two or three little children by
her side leaning out of window in
sight Of the railroad waiting, in pleas
ing expectancy to wave a greeting to
the man in the cab, having been made
acquainted with the fact of the APP
proach by means only of the sound Of
the whistle.
Nearly every engineer who is ac-
customed to handle any one locomotive
gives more or less special care to the
whistle. In many instances the men

vices covering several years and invol-
wing numerous transfers from one en-
CINE to another. A man is disposed to
become attached to his whistle, regard
ing it as sort of personal adjunct.
He blows 1t and blows it until he comes
to play on it,. sounding the varying
range Of hts feelings in the cadences of
the blast. In this way the whistle as
sumes the dignity of a crude index to
character and disposition.
Many of the differences among whis-
ties are obvious to people in general.
The chime whistle, for instance, Is IA
miliar to many. Uniting several
sounds, its musical blast is a favorite
among engineers. This type is special
ly used for variety. Washington Star.

the country He is always eager to be
Eau courant'' Of the questions that he
must discuss with his ministers and
other political personages, with irtellec-
tual celebrities, or committees on
economical questions whom he receives
in audience For example, before en-
barking for the Canaries he gave him
self up to the study of all the notable
works describing these islands and
their particular economic problems, and
astonished his suite by the aount Of
knowledge he had managed to absorb
in no short time. Matters relating to
sport, e. g., the uart of ''Zootecnia"
which refers to horses, figures among
his hobbies.
Affairs Of the army and navy also
greatly interest him, and one Of the
things that cause him themost visible
satisfaction is acting as supreme chief
Of the army During military parades
and manoeuvres at which he assists he
abandons his ioviality and habitual
freeIand-easy manner and wraps him
self in the greatest military discipline.
He likes to intervene in everything,
and frequently directs his attention to
the chief and generals to congratulate
them on the good training Of their
trops or, on the other hand, severely to
criticise defects he may note. His ia

1t can be stated with the utmost con-
idence that Princess Victoria Eugenia
is his first and only love. Persons on
terms of the closest intimacy with the
young king affirm that they have seen

reasons of state, but in private people
who have more liberty in the choice OF

An eminent physician says that
women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and trop blesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
1t is terrible ordeal to delicate,
sensitive, refined woman to be obliged
to answer certain questions when those
questions are asked even by her family
physician. This is especially the case
with unmarriedswomen
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
SO that she really knows more about
the true condition Of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands Of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

CHURCH AND NEWSPAPER.
Great Good That is Done in the Inter-
est of True Morality.

est of True Morality
Bishop FNallows, at Philadelphia the
other day, advised preachers to emu
late" the newspaper and "catch it's
STYLE" as "the ideal article is sharp,
clear and to the point" and "the SER
mon should have these characteristics. ="
He also said that mo revision of the
prayer book should be deemed complete
which does not name editors as needing
the prayers of the church, for none re-
quire more intercession of the saints"
As to Bishop Fallows' advice, proba-
bly, the judgment of most thinking
newspaper men will be that, though
complimentary, it is misplaced AS a
great writer said long ago. THE style
is the man." It can be 'caught'-in a
way So can the smallpox. But in
neither case is the result satisfactory.
Furthermore, the concern of the news
paper is with the things of time chiefly,
while the main concern of the preacher
is with the things of eternity, which
call for a different method Of treat
ment,
AS to the bishops remark about
newspaper men needing prayer, it was
not meant unkindly and was intended
to be jocular, Nevertheless, it con-
tains small kernel of unfairness.
OF course, newspaper men need to
pray and to be prayed for, Just like 9TH
er men. They have their peculiar
temptations, perhaps, though against
yielding to some Of these they are more
strictly restrained by law and custom
than other men. Yet the implication
that newspaper men give less heed to
religion and the church than others is
not correct.
How many newspaper men are
church members we do not know.
There are no statistics. That most
newspaper men are not regular church
attendants is probably true. But they
have this excuse: In the newspaper
business there are vacations, but no
holidays, except Sunday on its ''even-
ing" side, and none at all on its pmorn-
ing" side. 1t is true that well managed
morning newspapers do not work their
men seven days a week. But the ma
chine must go on, and six out of seven
must work Sundays. Many people who
object to Sunday newspapers would not
think of doing without Monday issues.
Hwever, it may be fairly claimed that
no social group is more conscious, not
even the ministerial, Of the enormous
Importance Of religion as a factor in
human life than that composed of
newspaper men, and that none gives to
the affairs Of religion and the church
closer and more accurate appreciation
of their weight and influence with man
kind as a whole.
His routine duties discharged, the
minister can, if he will, think of ether
things than religion. How much he
may do so is wholly within the jurisdic-
ton of his own conscience. Other lay
men. can dismiss religion from their
minds SO far as that is possible for any

has become famous for its uniform
quality, absolute purity, and de-
lightful flavor. The great care
taken in all creameries is here ex-
tended SO as to include regular,
periodic inspection of conditions
on farms from which the cream
supply is drawn. This, of course,
makes it impossible to receive, or
handle cream in an unsanitary
condition, or from diseased cows.
No cream is used which does not
meet the required high test for
quality, and per cent, of butter fat.
When we consider what the result
of such great care and scientific
exactness must be, it is easy to
understand why the butter made
at this creamery is so good.
