A vital. moving and historically accurate drama. dealing with the scenes and in cidents attendant upon the betrayal, death. and resurrection of Christ.

There are nearly dozen scenes in all. each one of them painted after patient research and study. The cOstuming, too. is rich and varied.

She has youth, personal beauty, decid- ed ability as an actress from the legit- innate standpoint, has a very pleasing soprano voice, that is well trained. and is a dancer of note. Miss Palmer is the pOssessor of personality that inn mediately ingratiates herself in ones good graces, and these several vaIu- able accessories in conjunction with her manifested intelligence in matters theatrical permits her to give most finished performances. If her present efforts are any criterion a great deal may be expected Of Miss Palmer in the near future.

THE ~Ex-EMPRESS EUGENE.

The Empress Eugene, who has
had 50 many years of heartache,
finds her comfort in getting close to
"Mother Earth" At her Riviera
villa she leads a very quiet life, and
in her garden often weeds the beds
with her own hands, still so delicate
and pretty, though old. No half
withered bud or blossom is left on a
rosebush or a plant, and she knows
how to wage war against slugs and
snails. At Sir Thomas Lipton's es-
tate in Colombo, where she was a re-
cent guest, one wonders if she as
sisted in the gathering of the tea
leaves. When it rains she plays pa
tience, laying the cards before her on
the table in a solitary game. To
play patience and TO poke around the
howersl Even an empress must
thus find her comfort in a lonely old
age.

HOW DIPHTHERIA Is SPREAD
Bacillus Conveyed by Poultry into the
Cattle Yards and Stables of
the Farms.

The enormous mortality from
diphtheria among wood pigeons of
late years has formed the subject OF
investigation by medical men for
some time past. and as a result of
their labors we have been assured
that the bacterium which caused this
mortality was not communicable
either to man or to other animals.
But DR.. W. l.. Sambon Of the Lon
don School of Tropical Medicine.
has just contributed IA long account
Of the disease 10 the Lancet. wherein
he contends that in supposing the
tirulence of this disease 10 be con-
fined TO the wood pigeons We are
probably laboring under a grave mis-
take. He has at any rate shown. il
he has not actually proved, that the
wood pigeon bacillus is equally de-
structiye to the domesticated pigeons.
and that these IN turn infect game
birds and domestieatcd fowls. The
latter carry the disease into the cat
lie yards and stables Of farms, vic
timizing the horses on the one h4nd
and COWS on the other. Thence the
teamstcr and the miIkman among
the farm hands become infected. the
latter distributing the germs with

PROBLEM FOR THE MOTHERS
Inconsistencies Always Detrimental to
the Proper Training of the
Little Ones.

Many mothers find it difficult to
frain a child on certain points, and
often these difficulties arise from
The inconsistencies of the parents.
A child cannot be expected to be
perfectly truthful if the parents tell
lalsohoods about little things, which
children notice quickly.
TT YOU do not respect a child's
rights. you cannot be surprised If he
is inconsidcratc Of You in an at
tempt 10 look out for himself. If
you take something away from a
ahild which is rightfully his own,
saying Il want it," he probably will
sake away something from the baby,
saying, But want it DO not
ever teach a child that Knight is
tight"
If you are not polite 10 your child
you will have difficulty in teaching
him politeness 10 others. Efforts to
teach a boy 10 beg pardon when he
bumps into anyone will prove fruit
less if You do not say pardon me-
when you bump into him. Most
children will feel it wrong that they
have to say thank YOU for some
thing handed them when no one says
Il to them.

MASCOTS

Maseots have had their place in
'he world for many generations.
Cats, as with the ancient Egyptians j;
grasshoppers, as in Italy, and vari-
u other specimens of animal life
have N their time been counted as
sacred or lucky by different peoples.
So il is only n continuance of old
customs that has caused baseball
eams TO take along an animal or a
small boy when they go upon the
diamond to try thcir skill with other
players. The custom has spread to
such an extent that to-day there is
aot a vessel i'll the navy of the Uni
wd States Ina has not some kind Of

with almost equal force to the other
Navios of the world.

BENEFITS PHILADELPHIA.

In 1907 Philadelphia's export and
import trade increased 5000, 900
in value over the figures for the pre-
vious year. The total value of the
city's external trade for that wear
was over 5O,OOO.o 900. These fig
ures account in part for the opening
of the new steamship service be-

vAGARIES OF THE PLUMB LINE.

One of the curious things that
men of science have discovered in
their innumerable efforts to measure
and map the earth with the least pos
sible error is the fact that there are
places where the direction of a plumb
line is not vertical. Irregularities of
density in the crust of the globe may
produce this phenomena. A remark
able instance has been found in the
island of Porto Rico, where the devil
alton from the vertical is so great
that, in mapping the island, the
northern and southern coast lines, as
shown on the older maps, had each to
be moved inward half a mile.
