The Humble Prune.

The gastronomic expert Of the Mont

man OF observant habits and a seeker for
light from sources whence his seeking is
likely to be rewarded, takes his stand
unflinchingly IN favor Of the humble and
downtrodden prune. and wonders what

What" asks this prunologist, "is bet
ter than a plate of nice. dimpled. fat
prunes for breakfast" And despite the

who affect TO make light Of prunes. we

proudly and nobly, for this splendid fruit
are founded upon evident persistent con-
sumption of the same. Were he less
frank in the perfectly apparent happi-
ness his prune-soaked condition has en-
gendered, we might pause to parley with
him and seek to learn the fun depth Of
his content; but, having raised loud his
voice for prunes, We are assured he
knows whereof he speaks. It is only
too plain, in fact, that he is fun of
prunes,
Like the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of the
grandest institutions ever invented-the
prune Is a victim of circumstances.
Away back yonder, some fellow started
a near-toke about the landlady who
served-or. rather. is alleged to have
served-this palatable, if h0mely, fruit
with too great regularity. For some IN
thinkable reason, this so-called witticism
caused a great laugh. And man. monkey
like and unreasoning. has been laughing
at it ever since. Nobody knows why; no.
body, as a rule, seeks to know. Things
Just took that direction in the beginning,
and very few people have essayed the
task of heading the Islander off.
Here in Wonderful Washington, where
culture mingles amazingly and album

able and careful clearinghouse keepers
set great store by the prune, Ever hav-
ing in view the necessity of a well-nur-
tured mind in a weIl-nurtured body, these
gentle, refined, AID thoughtful people
serve this dainty gen .rously to their pa

for the bullying brow, air Of profound

sleek fat, and well-fed appearance Of our

praise and all Qualification, then. to our

We have but to add one sentence more

eyes Riehtn for Miss Gould.

A few days ago the dispatches told Of a
Signal honor paid to Miss Helen Miller
Gould at Fort LeavenwOrth-hOw the
troops stationed there. passing in review
before a group Of officers who were en-
pertaining the noted New York woman
were given the command, Eyes rightw as
"a recognition of her presence. It was
the first time this military compliment,
reserved usually for general officers. had
ever been bestowed on a woman at the
Kansas post. and Miss Gould, naturally,
was much pleased.
! To Us the incident suggests the attitude
OF the whole country toward this eldest
daughter of Jay Gould. who, forsaking
the paths trod by ether members Of her
family and of the set" to which she be-
longs by right Of wealth and birth, has
placed her name high among those Of the
men and women who believe not in hid
ing their talents away. but in increasing
them IN preparation for the accounting
TO the Master. 1t has been q case Of
"eyes right" for Miss Gould with the
people ever since knowledge Of her very
practical charitable and philanthropic
work became general. What she has
done, she has done with no thought Of
earthly reward, no expectation Of popu-
lar laudation. She has not spent her
money in the building Of Libraries bear
ing her name. She has not endowed col
leges 10 stand as monuments 10 her in the
future. This form Of philanthropy
doubtless is highly commendable, regard
less Of its advertising features. but to
our mind, Miss Goulds kind Is better. A
writer in one Of the October magazines
Ruth Fuller Field, a former secretary
tells what this kind is in greater detail
than we remember to have seen it de-
scribed before. II is all eminently pTac-
teal and helpful. The money expended
by the distinguished gentlewoman goes
into places where it will Go the most
good, and, according TO Mrs Field, the
task Of determining just where these
places are consumes practically the whole
