NEW YEARS CALLS.
a New Drink 20 Replace the Old-Time
"Appie-Jack."

Twenty-Five years ago the custom OF
making New Years calls was a de-
lightful one for all concerned, until
some of the boys got more "egg-nog
or "apple-jack'' than they could sue
cessfully carry.
Then the ladies tried to be charit-
able and the gentlemen tried to be
as chivalrous as ever and stand up at
the same time
If anyone thinks there has not been
considerable Improvement made in the
last quarter of a century in the use
of alcoohlic beverages, let him stop
to consider, among other things, the
fact that the old custom of New Year
calls and the genteel tipping is nearly
obsolete.
The custom of calling on ones
friends, however, at the beginning OF
the new year, is a good habit. and an
other good habit to start at that time
is the use of Eell-made Postum in
stead of coffee or spirits
A Staten Island doctor has SEN
sible daughter who has set Postum
before her guests as a good thing to
drink at Yuie Tide, and a good way
to begin the New Year. Her father
writes:
my daughter and I have used
Postum for some time past. and we
feel sure it contains wholesome food
material.
"I shall not only recommend It to
my patients, but my daughter will be
most pleased to give a demonstration
of Postum to our Christmas and New
Years callers" Read 1.-THE Road to

The two great Catholic countries of
Europe, Italy and Spain, are sending
new ambassadors to the court of ST.
James The marquis di San Giuliano,
who will represent Italy, is compare
lively a young man. He comes of an
old Sicilian family of Norman descent,
and is highly cultured, having travelled
extensively with good results. He is
an enthusiastic student of Dante, and
is president of the Italian Geographical
society. Senior Villa Urattia, the new
Spanish ambassador, accompanied
King Alfonso to London on the mo-
mentous occasion that ended in his en-
gagement to Princess Ena, and won
golden opinions for his tact and cour-
tesy during that visit.

Lord Rothschiid-s Tart Reply.

Lord Rothschild, who is taking d
prominent part in the commission
which is considering as to the best
territory for Jewish colonization, is
the wealthiest member of the wealth
lest and most famous banking house
in the world. His monetary and social
influence suggest the monarch rather
than the f1nancier. There is a story
that Jay Gould once called upon him
on business. Lord Rothsohild sent out
word that he was too busy to see the
caller. Mr.. Gould, not accustomed to
being denied audience by anyone. sent
back rather a tart repetition of his re-
quest After an interval the attendant
returned with this reply from Lord
Rothschild: Tell Mr.. Gould that Eu-

yapan,s Empress Popular.

1t is doubtful if any royal consort is
more loved by her people than is the
empress of Japan. Educated accord
ing to feudal ideas and skilled in all
the accomplishments BETTING one OF
her social eminence, her majesty
strongly favors the broadness of the
new education for women and from
her private purse gives large sums
toward the maintenance of women's
schools and universities. During the
war with Russia the empress visited
the hospitals many times and every
day passed hours making bandages.
The effect of these bandages upon the
wounded soldiers has been of deep in
terest to medical and scientific men,
for the soldiers honored by them
seemed to rally under a peculiar men
tai influence. All other bandages were
destroyed after their first use; those
made by the empress were sterilized
and used again for the simple reason
of their effect on the recovery of the
soldiers.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
f1ance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of it's great
er strength than other makes.

AhIe to Command sIeep.

With Georges Clemenceau, the new
French premier, sleep is a mere mat
.er of volition, in which facility he re-
sembles Gladstone and the great Ma
poleon. He drops off to sleep at any
odd moment-in his private carriage
and even at meetings of the cabinet
when only routine matters are under
consideration. This ability to go to
sleep when and how he pleases is the
secret of his tremendous ability as a
worker. He learned English in this
country and speaks it perfectly,
though with reluctance, feeling that
his accent is not exactly to his nk-
ing.
