Death Of Baron Sternberg
Causes Great Regret.
COMPANION OF ROOSEVELT

Late German Ambassador Was on In
innate Terms With the President

mentins the Friendship Between
the Two countries--Widow of De-

Heidelberg, Germany, Aug. 25.-
Baron Speck Won Sternberg, the Ger
man ambassador to the United States,
died in the Hotel Victoria in this city.
The baroness, who was Miss Lillian
May Langham of Louisville, KY, was
with her husband at the end.
The immediate cause of Baron Won
Sternberg's death was Inflammation
OF the lungs. He was fifty-six years OF
age and fought through the Franco
German war. ILL.,.
The baron and the baroness came
here from Hamburg the end of last
month to consult with Professor
Czerny, a skin specialist, concerning
malady from which the ambassador
has been suffering for some time.

diseased part on the left side of Baron
Won Sternberg's head Professor Ger
ny affirmed that the trouble was not
concer, but lupus, and that he could
cure it. Both the ambassador and his
wife were immensely cheered at this
opinion.
Baron Won Sternberg is described
as having felt that his long agony
was nearly over and that soon he
would be well man again. His wife
also shared that hope. - -. .-. -,
1t had been arranged that Baron
Won Sternberg should go to Berlin the
middle of September to be received in
audience by Emperor William previ-
GUS to his return to Washington. It
was thought desirable that the ambas-
sador be at his post during the con-
Guiding weeks of the presidential cam
paign. Baron Won Sternberg left New
York for Germany on May 16 last.
Very Popular in Washington.
Washington, Aug. 25.-News of the
death of Ambassador Won Sternberg
came not as surprise but as a great
shock to his personal and official
friends in Washington. BY officials
of the state department and by these
who were so fortunate as to enjoy his
confidence and friendship the death of
Baron Sternberg is regarded as a dis
tinct personal loss. --..
When he left Washington May Is
for his home in Germany the ambas-
sador himself seemed to those close
to him to have premonition that he
never would return. a..
1t is no detraction from any man to
say that the German ambassador per-
sonally and officially was one of the
most popular and highly esteemed
members of the diplomatic corps in
Washington. While resident of the
American capital he became intimate
ly associated with a coterie of prom
inent men in civil and official life, of
whom President Roosevelt, Assistant
Secretary of State Adee and Clifford
Plnchot, chief forester of the United
States, were three. They were to-
gether much of the time. Some of
them were interested enthusiastically
in athletic sports. Baron Won Stern
berg formed an intimate relationship
with Mr.. Roosevelt. They had much
In common. Both were fine students
and eminent scholars. Baron Won
Sternberg, although small of stature
and seemingly delicate of physique,
was an accomplished horseman and he
and Mr.. Roosevelt rode a great deal
together. In the long rides and walks
Which they took about Washington
the friendship which in later years
was to be so valuable both to America
snd Germany was cemented.
Baron Won Sternberg always was a
welcome guest at the White House.
He sustained with the president prob
ebly more intimate personal and Off
cial relations than any other diplomat
accredited to Washington. During
Ambassador Sternberg's Off cial So
tourn in Washington he became &C.
quainted with Miss Lillian May Lang
ham of Louisville, KY, whom he aft

THE GOOD HOUSEWIFE.

You look at the housewife who
has a place for her things, and
those things in their place, and
you will find a woman who is svs-
tematic in her work, and who can
instantly put her hands upon any
thing she needs. She plans and
calculates, and in case Of extra
WORK knows beforehand just what
there is to do and what she wants
to do it with. Her work moves
along like clockwork, and when
the clock strikes she is ready to
serve the meal. The men are not
hindered-they eat their dinner
and get out Of the way, and her
work goes on according to pro-
gram, and nobody's time is wasted
by her procrastination, She is on
time, the glory of her husband,
the beloved of her children, and
the admired Of all who know her.
And this same woman, so exact
in her doings, gets more time to
rest and read and instruct her
children in the paths OF right and
In the duties they owe to society
than does her neighbor with half
the interests to claim her attention
and no method in their admins
tration. Ladies, housewives of
the Ozark Uplift, we trust you are
all Of the class receiving the praise
Of husbands, the devotion of child
ren, the admiration of friends, and
whose characteristics contribute to
the uplift Of all who come within
the circle Of your influence.

BE WHAT YOU SEEN.

Do not think, because you are
fresh from the hands Of your tailor
and your barber, that you will pass
for gentleman unless you are one
in very truth. You might carry
the perfume of roses about you for
ages without being once mistaken
for a rose. Fine clothes and cost
ly jewelry do not convert a rough
into q gentleman any more than a
stovepipe hat and a cigar make a
a man of a monkey.
A few short, well learned quota
tions from eminent authors will
not convey the impression that you
are conversant with literature. You
are apt to become scorched in the
flames you kindle. for your literary
companions will soon sound your

rance will seem more glarirg than
before. An extensive library does

WOMAN's KINGDOM.

Every woman who takes con
science for her guide has right
to fee. that home ispcculiarlv wo.
mans kingdom, knowing that all
love, all pure thought, all religion
and all good government must
have their roots beneath its altar.
Let no wife who would be loved,
honored and happy, forget that
home duties and home interests
must ever stand first in her heart
and life. No matter what ambi-
tious aspirations may have pos
sessed her before marriage, nor
how high she may be conscious
her talents are capable Of reach
ing, when the VOW is taken which
makes the twain onc-for better or
worse-before all else, she must
devote all the energy and love she
possesses 10 building a perfect
home; and she must never lose
sight of this high vocation. She
must be its mistress, but never its
slave. That she has made it i'm.
maculate in cleanliness and re-
spIendent IN beauty is not enough,
much as it is She must feed the
love and truth which should unit
edly govern it. What power or
dignity can reach higher? What
is the ability to sway great audi
ences compared with the ability to
so preside over a home that bus
band and children shall rise up
and call her blessed? To be the
ruling spirit in such a position is
more sacred honor than to rule an
empire. "Womans rights" Has
any man any higher prcrogativc?
And when husband and wife see
eye to eye and feel heart to heart
one in the sacred interests Of
home, have they reached as near
perfection as we hope for while in
the flesh.

vigor which he took into business
affairs, and it has won in this case
as in the other. His friends have
been expecting for some time that
when the political plum-trcc was
shaken some juicy fruit would fall
into his front yard, and though
they were gretiied, they were not
surprised, when they learned that,
at the urgent solicitation of many
men prominent in Republican
councils in Missouri, he had con-
sented to stand for the nomination
for state auditor.
His qualifications are of a high
order. When he audits the books
anything that may be wrong will
be discovered, and desired infor-
nation IN regard to state funds will
always be promptly forthcoming.
Taney county feels honored in his
selection, and the state will honor
itself in his election.

III THE HomE NEST
Cheerful Evening Revories for Tired
Mothers

Every member of a community,
and especially every parent should
take a deep interest in the public
school, 1t is not enough to pay
your school tax without complain
ing, or 10 know that the teachers
are qualified; nor is it enough to
keep your children in school regu.
larly. If you are really Interested
in the subject as you should be
you should by all means visit the
the schools regularly and persist.
emily. Few people have any idea
what an incentive it is to both
teacher and pupil to know that
parents and outsiders are taking a
lively interest in their work. We
believe the liltle folks at school
appreciate such interest more per-
haps than the larger ones, though
the effect is not lost on any Of
them, and we hope that parents
generally in Forsyth and fancy
county, will place the schools on
their visiting list and keep them
there permanently.
