Florida Sunshine.

The last paragraph from Mrs Al
denis Thanksgiving sermon gives us an
idea of the value Of accumulated small
things. We in Florida have done much
in Our way to help on Sunshine. 1t
should now become an organized pow
er in Our state. Mrs Alden suggests
that we should have our motto and the
stamp Of the F. S. S. upon Our station
cry, that each letter which bears Our
messages should tell the object of our
being. AS Florida is so sunshiny Mrs.
Alden suggests as our motto this from
an unknown poet who explains his al
ways happy, thankful disposition as fol-
lows
''The inner side of every cloud is bright
and shining,
And so | turn my clouds about,
And always wear them inside out
To show the lining
We have had SO much to do with
little things that I should like to use
Mrs. A1den's own words: eve might
say that the happiness robe is made
up Of little odds and ends of kind deeds.
We lose much when we fail to value
little things" Let us work, therefore,
for two things: First, for an emergen-
cy fund that we may carry on still
further the little things, then for a
general fund for organization purposes,
for stationery and for badges Of Our

will be my aim to make it more Of a

Food Value of Bacon.

All results of exact tests confirm
the unique value of lean bacon in the
dietary. The Minnesota stations work
on the digestibility and nutritive value
of bacon (Bulletin 92) shows that over
80 per cent of the bacon food was di-
gested and absorbed by the body.
Lean bacon contains as much pro-
tein and about twice as much digest
IDLE fats as other meats, and at the
same or even at a higher price per
pound, it is a cheaper food than other
meats. This is a scientific demon
stration of the truth of what has long
been recognized in practice, that men
can do more hard work on lean bacon,
and it will stand 10y them longer than
almost any other food. Good House
keeping.

Women's Ways of Earning Money.

The remaining chapters of this time
1y book will deal with the more usual
ways in which women work, but give
many useful hints: Work in great
stores; stenography; typewriting;
teaching in schools; writing for liv-
ing; civil service positions; washing
and ironing and in the printing trades.
Some odd occupations, such as general
delivery, fishing tackle and flies; cards
and parliamentary law; the chiropo
dist; the travellers friend; house
movers; decorate the windows; visiting
hairdressers; scrub women; money
earning music; professional nursing;
artists; painters; scu1ptors; teleg
raphy; keeping boarders; miscella-
neous professions; agents of all kinds;
women doctors; on the stage; home
decorators; musicians; artists and dea-
conesses; telephone girls; renting
furnished rooms; a call for guides;
window dressing; women missionaries;
advertisement writing.
The last chapter a Resume gives an
account of some especial women and
their careers. "This summary of mis-
cellaneous occupations completes a
survey of field which has been sketch
ed more broadly, it is believed, than has
ever been done before. All that has
been written is the result Of actual ex-
perience, both on the authors part and
the part Of thousands of questioning
women with whom she is daily brought
in contact"
These copious quotations have been
given as an encouragement to the many
women all over Florida who read these
columns. Let me repeat with Mrs
Alden: Willingness to work is a
prime requisite Necessity compels
hundreds Of women to face the problem
OF wage earning. The experiences and
suggestions in Mrs. A1den's book must
lead many women to do the work near
est at hand, that which they can do
and do we'll.

Some day what seems a punishment,

And looking back with clearer eyes

Well see with wondering glad surprise

 Japanese soldiers are to be seen everywhere and Japanese settlements are to be found in all the larger cities. The Koreans as a rule regard the new Japanese Invasion with silent distrust and are in doubt whether the purpose of Japan Is simply to protect herself from future danger at the hands of China and Russia, or whether she is expecting to colonize Korea with her own people. If Japan purifes the gov ernment and makes 1t honest if she es- tablishes schools and raises the intel-S leetual standard of the people; if she revives the industries now fallen into decay and introduces new ones; If, in other words, she exercises her power for the upbuilding of Korea and for the advancement of the Korean people, she may in time overcome the preju dice which centuries of hostility have created. But what nation has ever ex- ercised power in this way? And how can Japan do 1t without developing an educated class which will finally chal- lenge her authority? If she keeps the Koreans in ignorance and poverty, they will be sul1en subjects; If she leads them to higher levels they will the more quickly demand their independ- ence and be better prepared to secure It. Which course will she pursue?

 Arriving in London at about o'clock. having travelled since 12, she was met by the King In the garden of St. James's Palace. Attempting to kneel. she was caught by the enthu- siastic monarch, who embraced her kindly and nearly carried her up stairs. That very evening the wedding ceremony took place Horace Walpole writes of the new Queen: She looks very sensible, cheerful and is remarka- bly genteei'' (that faVorite epithet of the period.)
 Her tiara of diamonds was very pret- ty, her stomacher sumptuous. her violet velvet mantle and ermiue so heavy that her clothes were dragged almost down to her waist. The we'd ding over and supper not being ready. the Queen sat down and obligingly played and sang to her harpsichord The royal party never separated till between and i In the morning, no slight trial for bride of IT, who had employed the few moments she passed In her room after her arrival in trying on her wedding gown and the rest of nef ITOuSS6au-
 When first she caught sight of the palace she became very nervous, and, being told that she was to be married that evening, she. in fact, fainted in the carriage. The Duchess of Hamil- ton, one of the beautiful Miss Gun nings, smiling at her fears, Charlotte said: You may laugh-you have been married twice-but to me 1t is no joke" It is pleasant to think that af- fer being so highly tried, Charlottes married life proved perfectly happy.
 Very different was the arrival of Catherine of Bragana, who, when first seen by Charles IL. was laid lip with a cough and little fever in bed. He was not favorably impressed by his new consort and remarked as much to his attendants.
 Elizabeth Farness, who married the King of Spain, son of Louis XIV, Of France as his second wife, celebrated her arrival in Spain by quarrellng with and summarily dismissing the lady in waiting sent to receive her, the famous Princesse des Ursins. who had ruled the late Queen. and by whom she herself had been chosen as successor. Elizabeth's future life was passed in slavish attendance on her husband that sine might secure her influence over him and prevent any state affairs being transacted without her knowl- edge. Twenty minutes only of the day and night was she permitted to l be alone. Elizabeth was an ardent

 The government of Korea is an abso- iute monarchy and has reigning family which has held the throne for about 500 years All authority ema- mates from the emperor and is exercls- ed through ministers. governors and subordinate officials appointed by him. If one can trust the stories afloat, the government Is as corrupt an organiza- ton as can be found on earth. Just who is responsible is not clearly known, but that offices are sold and all sorts of extortion practiced there can scarcely be doubt. There Is no spirit of patriotism, such as is to be found in Japan, and why should there be when the government gives so lit- tie return for the burdens which 1t imposes? Changes in the cabinet are of freouent occurrence, there having been something like 50 within year.
 For a long time Chinese influence was paramount and the Chinese gov- ernment had q resident minister in Seoul who was the confidential adviser of the royal family. But Chinese in f1uence ended with Japan's victory in 1894; soon afterward Queen Min, the wife of the present emperor. was put to death, and the murder being charged to the Japanese the emperor took refuge at the Russian legation.

Not much chance of happiness there!
 Until quite recently very little nber- ty was accorded to princesses. Queen Charlotte. even after her marriage, was for several years in thraldom to the Dowager Princess Of Wales and denied all diversion and pleasure. She told Miss Burney that even her jewels had ceased to dazzle and interest her. Believe me-" she said, it is the pleasure of q week, q fortnight at most, and then returns no more, One of her greatest griefs. and one which caused her bitter tears, was the deter imitation of her mother-in- law that Charlotte should wear her jewels when she received the sacrament for the first time after she became queen. She had promised her own mother never to do this-it was an act of humility which had been strictly Inculcated on her; and 1t proceeded from the same devo- tional impulse which caused King George to take off his crown when he knelt at the altar during the corona ton.
 The courtship of queen Victoria brings us into a pleasanter atmos- phere. On Prince Alberr's first visit to England she liked and appreciated him at once and his tastes agreed with hers. Every grace had been showed by nature on this charming boy" says Baron Stockmar of hIm at this time. The Baron judged him critically. calmly and impartially until he finally became his most attacaed and devoted friend and adviser.
 Queen Victoria and her cousin met at first unconscious of the object of their acquaintance and when the desired i'm pression had been produced, the young Prince. like q second Sir Ga1ahad, was sent away to travel anc fit himself by study and careful education for his great position. On his return to Eng land the Queen writes: "Alberts beauty is most striking. and he is most amiable and unaffected-In short, fasci- hating"

 ROYAL COUPLES
ROMANCE RARELY ASSOCIATED
 WITH THESE.
How. Queen Charlotte Came to England George IV's Reception to BFide-Queen Htc~
 tOria.

The romantic wooing Of the King of Spain reminds one of how the element of romance has been associated with royal marriages.
 What could have been more brutally iuconsiderate than the arrangements for the marriage of Queen Charlotte. wife of King George III? This Prin- cess, just 17, was selected as consort for the King of England. Her life at Mecklenburg, writes Lady Violet Gre vile in The London Daily Chronicle. had hitherto been of the simplest. She dressed "en robe de chambre' every day except Sunday. when she put on her best gown and drove out in coach and six The ambassador sent to demand her hand having arrived. she was told nothing of his mission. merely that she was to dine down. stairs that night for the first time.

 Some kind of ceremony then took place; she was embraced by her fam fly, and presented by the ambassador with a beautiful parure of diamonds, including the little crown of diamonds which so often appears in her portraits, She was pressed for an immediate de- parture but pleaded for the respite of a week in order to take leave of everybody. During this time she ran about visiting the poor and the little garden of medical herbs, fruit and flow CTS which she cultivated herself for the benefit of the poor. She after wards introduced the same practice at Kew and Richmond.
 The poor little bride suffered a ter Fible crossing to Harwich, the royal yacht being nearly driven on the coast of Norway. The Duchesses of Ancaster and Hamilton, sent to conduct the Prin- cess to England. were both much in- disposed but Charlotte herself re- mained quite well and cheered the company by singing Luthers hymns te
