Princess . roothpiek Queen.

The crown princess Of Roumania,
who before her marriage was Princess
Marie Of Edinburgh, expects to manu-
facture 25,OOO,OO0 toothpicks this year.
She is the owner and active manager
Of a toothpick factory near Bucharest
The workers are tenants on the estate
Of her husband, and she takes per-
sonal interest In all Of them. She es-
tablished the factory four years ago,
and 1t is one Of the largest and most
profitable in Europe. Toothpicks from
the crown princess factory go into
all European countries and are to be
found in New York hotels In Individual
paper wrappers. The crown princess
is planning to manufacture quill pens,
many of which are used In Germany
and Russia. 1t is said it is becoming
the fashion for society women all over
Europe to use quilts for writing, and
it is expected American women will
not be slow in taking up the fad. This
movement is in line with the general
revival of the fashions of our grand
mothers, and the crown princess. with
her usual business acumen, sees
chance for profit in putting quill pens
on the market.

Another EXCLAMATION.

Recently, while the Helpful Hints
editor was absent, for a week or two,
his work was handled by the puzzle
editor, and a number of errors crept
into the column. Many. of them were
trivial, but in one instance we feel
that the error was serious, and we
hasten to adjust it. Mrs Sophia
Brown of East Wind, Ind, asked for a
recipe for picking green tomatoes. In
the same mail was query from Miss
Lizzie Magruder of Joy Center, Ia,
who said she was troubled with aching
eyes, and wanted us to suggest some
thing that would give relief. The
puzzle editor, whose mind was occu-
pied probably with the construction Of
double inverted pyramid on the
word "parallelopipedon," answered the
two inquiries, and got the replies
mixed somewhat.
He advised Miss Magruder to wash
all the dirt off of them, then scald them
quickly in boiling water. After that
put them overnight In a strong brine.
Next morning lift them out one by
one, dry with clean towel, cut into
narrow slices, put into deep jar, and
pour over them hot spiced vinegar.
Seal them up carefully and they will
be ready for use in month" Mrs.
Brown, who wanted to pickle the to-
matoes was urged to battle them in
luke warm water, and then with a
glass dropper drop two drops Of Dor
acic acid solution into each one, tie a
cold towel over them and protect from
the light until they showed no more
symptoms of pain.
1t is needless to state that the error
was unintentional, although both Mrs.
Brown and Miss Magruder have written
rather tartly to us. Miss Magruder
asks us if we do not think we ought to
sign the pledge before answering any
more queries, and Mrs. Brown accuses
us of having caused her to spoil two
bushels of choice tomatoes. AS we
said before, we can only express our
regret and promise to avoid such con-
fusion in the future.

/ have lost a Yesterday
Miser Of my memories
I had hidden it away
Where no thief might come to seize
All my Yesterdays I hid
As a miser hides his gold;
As a miser thus 1 did
Now it's fallen from my hold.
I haste back alone the way
Through the laughter and the tears,
Seeking for my Yesterday
In the dust of other years.
Was 1t sunny? Was 1t gray?
Was It gloomy? Was it gladf
All, 1t was a Yesterday
But q Yesterday / had.
/ have held them in my CLUTCH
All the days that used to be;
! have loved them overmuch,
They were all in all to me.
Yesterdays-I knew each one
BY its twilight or its dawn.
BY tasks finished or begun
Yet q Yesterday is gone.
Had Il ailence2 Had it song?
Had IL laughter? Had it grief?
Was IT brief or was 1t long?
Bursting bud, or withered leaff
Ho, know not; nay, nor care
Joys and sorrows long were blent
Into recollections fair
OF the days that came and went.
So I count them and miss
One Of all my Yesterdays,
And turn that way and this
Through the years unending maze.
And you say I need not sigh?
Is it some small thing, I pray.
Out Of the glad days gone by
To have lost a Yesterday?

THE TELEPHONE FIENn.
We All Know Her, the Inconsiderate
Person.

Person.
"Hello! That you? Yes, just
thought I'd call you up. It's warm
out Oh, should say it is. No; it's
real warm. Whatchdoin? You are
Where am TT At the bank"
So were several other women at the
bank. They had stepped in to make
deposits or send drafts and had gone
into the women's room to wait for
friends or use the telephone. One wo-
man was waiting to telephone home
that she couldn't get out in time for
lunch Another wanted to make an
appointment with a dressmaker. A
third wanted to telephone out to
Bridget that it looked like rain and
would she please shut the bedroom
windows and also give the children a
cooky apiece when they came home
from school and not to let them play
outside the yard, all Of which was
business, too, from some points of
view. They were all brief, care reliev-
ing, time saving messages, the very
sort of messages for which those
phones were supplied. But there sat
that creature ''ugh-huhing and mmhm-
ing' while a half dozen women waited
for that one minute at the telephone
that would make the rest Of the day
go smoothly.
And, by the way, the young person
at the phone had walked in at the
front door and made her way straight
to that room. When at length she had
used the telephones and the mirrors as
long as she wished she retraced her
steps, found her way back to the front
door as fast as her feet could carry
her, and in all probability she had
never seen the sign on the receiving
window.
Still she was in no way deferred
from using the special privileges which
the bank had provided for its patrons.
Perhaps this is too fine point Of
honor to be grasped by the feminine
mind

graphed from Salonica threatening TO attack
the capital unless Hilmi Pacha. former Grand
Vizier. and Ahmed Ria Bey, former president
of the Turkish parliament, are restored 70 their

cles this is regarded as a bluff, but should such
a hostile movement be attempted Edhem Pacha

who is in charge of the troops in Constantine

UNDERWOOD LIKES MR.. TAFT's IDEA
Thinks Well of Plan for Closer Relations Be

Frederick D. Underwood. president cf the Erie
Railroad Company. in commenting yesterday upon
President Tafts plans for closer relations between
the government and the railroads, told exclusively
in a Washiu gton dispatch to The Tribune said that

and any body that could assist the commission in
its labors he thought. would he OF benefit.
Mr.. Underwood said. however. that in his opinion
the best thing do make the railroads conform
to the law would BE- the appointment of any
more commissions but making rate cutting q com
mercal impossibity. This could be- accomplished,
he said. by making the minimum fine for robatin2
so drastic that the railroads could afford

advocated the doing away with the penal provision
in the law as futile and making the penalty simply
a fine. officers and directors OF a railroad, he said,
would be more careful in regard to taking
chances OF incurrnG huge fine than they would
be in taking chances Of going Jail. in the
former case the company and the stockholders
would be the ones 10 suffer. while in the latter
case only an officer Of the company. provided he
could be convicted would be punished. and
