Every mother in the land can make
her children what she wishes them to
be, provided she is woman of high
moral principle, gentle and patient,

liminal appeal, possessed of courage
to apply 1t with intelligent persistence,

Asked to state the care of auto-sug-
ton and the process by which a per-
son applies it to himself, DR.. Quack-
enbos said
The transliminal self of an individ-
ual is as amenable to suggestion by
his own objective mind as by the OBJ
jective mind of an outside person.
Self-treatment of this kind, or auto
suggestion, is open to all who would
ennoble their lives by cultivating q
closer relationship between the supra
liminal and the transliminal nature

called Teverie,' Immediately proceed

Prerequisite of Success.
Lapse into sleep with the trans.

suggestion given by another. The pre-
requisite of success is earnest, intelli-

A FAMOUS HIGHWAY
SHORT LONDON THoROUGFARE
TO BE CLOSED TO PUBLIC.
Downing Street, Known as Hub Of Brit
ish Empire, and Has Long Fig
ured in History-Founded
by an American.

don.--"The most famous street
in the world as it is called in Lon
don is about to be closed to the pub
lie. This is. Downing street, which
former Ambassador Joseph IL. .Choate
once described as the connecting
link" between England and America,
and which certainly is one of the
most interesting streets in the world.
If it be not the most famous.
Downing street Is the hub of the
great British empire, yet as street
it is insignificant, in fact, 1t is worse
it is the dreariest, dingiest cul-de-sac
imaginable, and is dignified by being
called street at all. Excepting the
big government buildings which cor
ner it, there are but two houses, Nos.
10 and II. One is the official resi-
dence of the prime minister of Eng
land, the other of the chancellor of
the exchequer The first of these,
mo. TO-" is indisputably one of the
most historic buildings in existence.
1t is in Downing street that the Brit
ish cabinet meets. 1t is here that the
most important matters affecting the
empire are discussed, ministries are
made and broken and peace and war
declared.
There is, Of course, a sufficient rea-
son for such surprising step as the
closing of Downing street to the public.
There have been whispers that the
suffragettes intended besieging the of
fetal residences of the prime minister
and the chancellor of the exchequer.
AT any rate, the street is to be closed,
and If the suffragettes desire to do any
rioting they must do 1t elsewhere.
Downing street was started by an
American. His name was George
Downing, but he was not an American
on whom the United States can pride
itself. A historian of his own nation
ality, in fact, declares that ut became

EUROPE is GROWING COLDER.
Temperature of the Continent Con-
stantIy Becoming Lower.

Some months ago there appeared in
these columns some tables worked up
by Camille Flammarion to show
changes of a meteorological character
which seem to have taken place in
Europe, says the Philadelphia Record.
Writing again, he states that from
actual figures obtained within the
past six years he has become certain
that the temperature of Europe has
been falling. France has been suf-
fering for long time from an excess
of cold weather, the thermometrical
readings at Paris having been one
degree below the normal height.
Other readings show even less favor
able results. The fall is more notice
able during the spring than during
other periods of the year. Similar
Phenomena are recorded in Great
Britain, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Austria
and Germany. In the days of Philip
Augusta, in the thirteenth century, the
wines of Etampes and Beauvais were
the favorte beverages at court. Henry
w., pronounced bon vivant, frequent
ly expressed his fondness for the
product of the Suresnes grape. At the
present day there is not a vineyard

of Importance north of Paris, and as
for the petit win now made at
Suresnes, 1t has become the drink only
OF the poorer classes.
In the middle of the sixteenth CEN
fury Macon was celebrated for it's
muscated wines, whereas the muscatel
grape at this moment can scarcely be
made to thrive there. Ancient chron-
icles mention the cultivation of the
vine in northern Brittany, where now
even apples are not plentiful Again,
1t is TO be remarked that trees which
once flourished in the north of France
are at present found in the extreme
south and considerable number have
disappeared altogether.
Languedoc no longer grows the
lemon; there is not an orange left In
Rousillon. The Lombardy poplar, so
familiar and picturesque in old French
line engravings, is now nowhere to ba
found on French soil, These are facts
which, putting statistics out of the
question, serve to illustrate the
changes wrought by temperature in
the great fruit-producing country OF
France.

When the king once more came in %
his own, Downings peace was made
with Charles II. by Thomas Howard,
brother of the earl of Suffolk and an.
cestor of the man who has made Daisy
Letter of Chicago and Washington an
English countess.
Soon after Downing was restored to
favor the king made him the chief
treasurer. Downing gave the profit
gate king all the money he wanted and
in several pamphlets defended his
royal master. He also saw that the
kings three chief favorites, the Ouch
ess of Portsmouth, Lady Castlemaine
and Nell Gwynn, had their share of
dips into the English treasury. He
was such great sycopant that he OBJ
tanned a grant of 100000 from the
king. He served in all the parliaments
and was known as the house bell to

The founder of Downing street built
some houses on 1t which he sold as
well as leased. Nos. 8, 10 and IL were
sold to Lee Lord Litchfield, master of
the horse to King James III. When the
king fled from England Lord Litchfield
had to do the same, and his property
was forfeited to the crown. In this
way these three houses came into the
possession of the government.
King George |. knocked Nos. 9 and

minister, for life. On Bothmar's death
