BUTTERMILK

Regular drinkers OF hard liquor in /
New York have discovered that butter
milk is a beverage which gratihes and
satisfies but does not inebriate, and have
adopted it to such an extent that it takes

Three or four hundred drinks OF it is the
daily average consumed by the sporting
element which frequents lhe Union Cafe,
in Broadway, and the Bourse and other
saloons in the financial district sell more
buttermilk that malt liquors.

"Buttermnk satisfies thirst, has an

and beer do" he said Doctors tell
everybody that it Is the most healthfun
drink one can take. Men who have an

form is a necessity. together with a
large cutting table fitted with the right
accessories. The sewing room should
be furnished in as bare a fashion as
possible. Needless TO say, there should
be no carpet on the floor TO gather
threads and needles.
A bare floor Is best Of all. but II this
IS too barren small fiber rugs may be
used TO cover 1t at intervals. These
may be taken up and shaken, and at
least. not being wool, they will not
hold the threads and ravelings The

take place in the room. There should
be no curtains in the window TO cut

sitting by the windows.
The picture shows an ideal saving
room. It belongs TO Mrs. Clarence
Mackay at her estate in Roslyn, Long
Island.
Mrs. Mackay has the greatest regard
for the comfort Of those who work
for her, and she naturally has the
money to carry out her plans. so this
room may be considered as ideal for
its purpose.

Missouri Woman, Wife Of the Seere-
tary Of Commerce and Labor.
The cabinet circle of ladies has
never been complete since President
Taft named his coadjutors The miss
ing member has been Mrs. Charles
Nagel. wife of the secretary Of com
merce and labor. A bereavement in
her family precluded her from taking
any part in the social affairs Of the
White House coterie. Mrs. Nagel has
benin Washington several times since
her husband went there in his official
capacity, but her stay each time was
brief. Recently, however. she visited
the capital and assisted her husband
in selecting the house of which she
will become mistress as soon as tho
season opens in Washington.
The mansion agreed on was formerly
the home of Lieutenant General Chat
fee. II is in X street. and the neares
official neighbor will be Secretary o
State Knox. When the Nagels occup!
their Washington home Mrs. Mage
will have the distinction of being mis-

remain furnished, the other two being
her home in st. Louis and the summer
home near Marion, Mass, purchased
by Mr. Nagel six years ago, long be

a presidential cabinet.
The home in Massachusetts is spa
cious, colonial in architecture and is
surrounded by cultivated grounds. AS
a rest spot 1t is ideal, and much Of its
beauty and comfort is the work Of
( Mrs. Nagel. The home in St. Louis
is one of the best known in Missouri,
for it is frequently the meeting place
Of the old society Of the Mound City.
When the women Of the present cab
met first met, an observer on the look
out for such things discovered that
the ensemble in physique was petite.
The appearance of Mrs Nagel will
change this, for she belongs to the

A Dutch Joke.

IT was at The Hague at the birth
Of the Princess Juliana," said DR..
James G. Carter, Of Duluth. There
were great times at The Hague.
Champagne instead of coffee was
drunk for breakfast. Many practi-
cal jokes were played that day. For
instance:
AT noon lot of the big hotels
and government offices and cafes
were notif1ed-the document of noti-
fication looked imposing and official
that in honor of the royal birth a
salute of seventy eight-pounders in
stead of the usual smaller guns would
be fred at o'clock, and, to prevent
accidents by conclusion of air, it was
requested that all doors, windows
and shutters be heretically closed.
80, at few minutes to o'clock
all over The Hague shutters and
doors were banged to by bustling
walters and servants, bolts were shot
and thousands of people sat smiling
in black and sitting darkness, as
they waited for the thunder of the
guns.
Three passed-no report. Three
FIVE; three-ten; three-fifteen.
And gradually the people real
lied that they had been hoaxed- that
the antique seventy-eight-pounder
gun had been out of use for more
than a generation. w Washington

Gold From Sunken Ship.

In the most boisterous part CT
Mounts Bay, and almost unapproach-
able except by sea, lies Dollar Cove,
where for the past three months a
treasure seeking expedition, sent
down by London syndicate, has
been quietly working. The company
of seekers some three or four weeks
ago suspended operations in order to
get more powerful pumps and gear.
These are in working order, and al
though the salvors have little to say
about the matter, they appear to be
hopeful Of success. In the year 1888
Spanish ship went ashore there with
about twenty tons of specie aboard.
Everybody who lives on the coast
is familiar with the appearance of the
dollars, as large numbers have been
washed up on the beach from time to
time. Gold pieces are said to have
been discovered recently by people
walking on the beach. - london
