!. Where there's smoke there Is usual,
something of confagration, no mat
ter how small.
The late King Carlos of Portugal
who was assinated, had given much
cause for unrest among his people
however his extinction at the hands .oi
an assassin was in American eyes un-
| justified The trouble with this mon
arch was not that he was brute. or
cruel or too dictatorial. as many sit
| ting in high places are wont to be. but
he was a selfish man who lived for
himself alone. His personal gratifica-
tion was the supreme end and aim with
the Portuguese ruler.
II man was in the king business,
why not have all the best OF 1t there
was to be had? This was the way King
Carlos put the question to himself and
he answered 1t in the language Of a
sybarite-in the form that best suited
his own extravagant tastes.

answer and sought amusements and
pleasures that were far beyond his in
come with the result that the people
were oppressed with taxation to meet
the expense. II was unjust taxation,
burdensome and extortionate. They did
not like 1t and there were murmurings.
Finally they complained that 1t was too
much. Their plea was in vain. The
good natured, fat and jolly monarch
laughed at their ire and waved them
aside He did not heed the note Of
warning.
But in the end he had to pay the
fiddler, as every one who dances must,
sooner or later. It may be long time
after the dance Is over but the fiddler
will surely get his due.
King Carlos shed his blood by the
act of an enraged subject and at the
time Of his taking off the people gen.
orally were in state bordering on In
surrection, which was probably avoided
only by the removal Of their king.
A different picture is furnished to
Portugal by the course Of young King
Manuel, who gives promise OF being a
different sort Of monarch from his
father. He has promised to pay to the
state $750,000, the value OF crown
Jewels which his spendthrift sire UNI
lawfully sold to square himself with
his insistent creditors. While self
is the first law Of nature
1t is only fair to give the young king
credit for a manly act, and his inten-
ton would lead to the hope that 1t is a
criterion Of his future course in the
general administration Of state affairs.
He sets fine example to some AM
erican grafters, who might pay back
to the public the money they have
stolen, rather than have a stigma as
the heritage for their descendants. The

The Cost of a Calf.

In an experiment to ascertain the
cost of raising a calf, Prof. Shaw. OF
Michigan station, took a dairy calf
and kept an accurate account of the
expense of feeding for one year from
it's birth The amount of feeds used
in that time were 981 pounds of whole
milk, 2,568 pounds of skim milk, 1862
pounds of silage, 219 pounds of beet
pulp, 1854 pounds of hay. 1,247 pounds
of grain, lat pounds of roots, IA
pounds of alfalfa meal and so pounds
of green corn. The grain ration con-
sisted of three parts each of corn and
oats and one part of bran and oil
meal At the end of the year the calf
weighed 500 pounds at a cost of $3.50
for feed. The calf was a Holstein-

Teiis Must Match Fall Hats

This to be a story of wells and
which tend to make lovely woman
lovelier.
| There is a charming old legend
wherein it is said that the idea OF
wells was conceived one evening at
sunset by a woman who sat on the
brow of a hill watching the clouds as
they drifted AS the pillows of rose
and amber and seftest gray floated
softly by she watched them as they
broke and, spreading, grew long and
flray in appearance, and the thought
came to her, 81 might be the most
beautiful woman in the world if
could only shroud my head and
shoulders in clouds like that
The thought, once born. grew rap
idly. The woman gathered into her
house many women and they toiled
and spun until at last they succeeded
| in weaving a web as flmy as a sun
{ set cloud. Then experiments were
made with dyes, and finally one
night the woman seated herself in
| her room, which was piled with
mounds and pillows of beautiful
wells. She wound them, one by one,
about her head and shoulders, pink
wells, gray wells, amber wells, and
each one was more beautiful than the
Hast.
At last, in mist of filmy rose
color, she ran out and called her
neighbors to come and see. Coming,
they saw and envied and desired,
and as for a woman to desire is 10
have, wells came into vogue and have
ever since been most important fac
tor in feminine wearing apparel.
Contrasts are not Permitted.
This season wells will be worn to
match the hats. Indeed, women will
be most particular that this is the
case. They will not allow shade OF
difference. Manufacturers, therefore,
must conform to the requirements by
putting out veilings in the latest
shades as we'll as in the black ana
white and staple colors. There must
be wistaria wells, and sand colored
wells. and wells of taupe in order to
please the fastidious woman OF l9Oo.
The butterfly veil will be worn with
the larger hats. 1t is gathered on
either silk elastic or narrow baby rib
bon around the crown of the hat. The
lower edge of the veil is gathered on
to something like a glove elastic,
only wider, and two satin ribbons are
