There is good news concerning the poet Mistral, who was recently reported to be seriously i'll. He is in excellent health, and looking forward to next spring, when the fetes in connection with "Mrelle" will be held. The inauguration of Mis- trals statue and the Arlaton museum which the poet founded, thanks to his Nobel prize, will coincide with the fetes.
 It had been hoped that Frederic Mis- tral would have come forward as a can- didate for one of the vacant chairs in the academy. His election would be assured since he would be the support of such well known academicians as NJ. Jules Claretie, Paul Bourget and Maurice Barres. It is pointed out however, that Mistral would be out of place in a so- ciety which was founded against the tendencies of preserving the ancient lang uages of France of which tendencies he has been the most glorious protagon- ist

II I were compelled to choose a wife
from among the heroines of fiction, my
heroine, II am to be homogeneous, Is
certainly Sophia in TON JONES'" that
peerless lady who was Fielding's wife.
Happy Harry Fielding! though perhaps
1t needed all sophia's good humor and
sense to be equally blessed In her
lord. Every man who has had the liberal
education Of knowing Sophia has want
ed to marry her, and If to want to marry
a woman makes her your favorite heroine
then Sophia would assuredly be elected by
a vast majority of votes But. in real life.
any man who knew both Sophia and Bea-
trix Esmond would have been captured by
Beatrix. The thing could not occur; the
most fascinating girl in fiction mot count
Ing Shakespeare's women) was the elderly
Baroness de Berpstein. when Sophia was
in her bloom, In 17A5. She captured the
hearts of men even as elderly women
with alluring attainments attract today.

Sweden's Popular Children.

These pretty little princesses, Marsare
tina and Martha, children of Prince
Charles Of Sweden, are beloved by thu
people for their courteous manners. bright
faces and kindly hearts.
The youngest-Astrid-is a mere babe
but the other two girls are undoubtedly
the most popular children in Sweden, and
anecdotes concerning them frequently ap.
pear In the newspapers.
Here Is the latest:
Last Tuesday, when Princess Ingeborg
their mother, was entertaining a few
friends at afternoon tea in her new pal.
ace at Djurgarden, her little daughters
were called downstairs to say How dc
you do?" to the guests.
Later, the children playing with their
dolls became noisy. and had to be re-
proved more than once. But the noise
continued. Princess Ingeborg turned to
her little girl, and remarked:
"Margaretha, well-mannered child
should be before all things, abed-"
'Obedient," answered the child. without
much show Of enthusiasm.
And when she Is told to be quiet, or
to do anything. how many times must
mamma tell her?'
six times!' replied Princess Margare-
tina. with a mischievous glance at her
mothers friends. and there was general
laughter.
