French Peasant Women Hard Workers

 The French peasant woman, Ere tonne or otherwise. works hard as any man. It makes one sad to see the women working in the fields, digging and delviny, carrying heavy burdens, driving the cattle, sometimes attend ing to the machinery employed on the farms. One wonders whether hus- bands and fathers appreciate 1t all, especially when you hear some of the ballads. for ballads are supposed to reveal the soul of a people. I heard one the other day of which the refrain Is as follows:
 Dear is my good wife Jeanne,
 Her death l should deplore.
 But dearer are my beaves,
 Their loss would greve me more. From Plousastel (Francel Letter to New Orleans Times Democrat.

of Helena Modjeska, the Polish actress,

committee is working in Austrian Po-

The Warsaw theater has decided to
establish a Modjeska fund to further

effort is being made to collect money to
bring Modjeska's body TO Warsaw for
burial. and if this is permitted there
will be public funeral
There is some doubt. however.
whether the Russian authorities will
permit this, as Modjeska was
expelled from Russia several years ago
when she was about to make public
appearance in this city. If burial in
Warsaw is not possible. the body will

July tumbled half a cent at a time to

Bakers Take Notice

Far from the maddening scene on
the board in hundreds of bakeries there
was different although related scene.
Flour had risen and the bakers were
trying to find out where their profits
were coming from unless the price of
bread could be raised.
The speculative day on the board
opened without indications of the SEN
sations to come. May and July quickly
rose to new high price, the former
to $1.29A and the latter to s11S7-S.
July price was the highest since 1877.
but neither mark created unusual com
ment. Either one or the other of the
options mentioned has been doing the
same thing since the first of the month.
There has not been trading day since
then that one or the other has not
created a new top price.
