THE latest French toys are all fur
and ice and American flags and polar
bears. Look here"
The salesman took down card
board representation of the white

holding an Americ20 flag, were Ia
be,ed Cook and Paary, and socket

toy was wound the two figures fenced
tiercely with their flags about the
socket until, finally, one Of them got
his flagstaff into the hole.
Here is new north pole game"
the salesman said. This white pole
is the pole itself, and the figure in
white fur is Cook, while the one in
black IS Peary. t. C4me is Played

VIRGINIA APPLES IN ENGLAND.

In 1912, when Mr.. Andrew Ste
venson, a citizen of Albemarle coun-
", Va, represented the United
States at the English court, he
caused several barrels of Albemarle
pippins to be presented to Queen
Victoria. From that time until her
death the pippin was the apple eaten
at the Court of st. James. and it
may be that King Edward keeps up
the custom of his mother. At any
rate, the pippin has wonderful
popularity in England now. Mr.. c.
E. Sydnor, the Richmond fruit ex-
pert, received, in the summer Of
1907, an order from a wholesale
fruit merchant of England for 90
600 barrels of pippins. Sydnor also
received an order from Copenhagen,
Denmark, for 5000 barrels of pip
pins.-Virginia County News.

Mrs. 0. II. P. belmont says "Ameri-
can women do not know how to bring
up their children" No doubt there is
some truth in what she says. \ large
number of ;he failures in life may be
traced to improper training during
childhood. There is no denying that
nothers are Of the very first impor-
lance: that there is great RESPONSE
bility upon them, and that they make
many mistakes that might be avoided
if only some expert would tell them
what to do. But Mrs. Belmont should
not be too severe on them in their
ignorance She should realize that
the American women are producing
fair average results, considering the
kind of material some of them have
to work with The American mothers
