now been brought TO degree of per
fection that makes them satisfactory.
The Use of the Kitchen.

One last important point to remem-
Der in furnishing kitchen is that its
real purpose is workroom, not a liv-
ing or dining room. A workroom
should have its tools conveniently ar
ranged within easy reach Of the work
man. All utensils and evidences Of
kitchen work should not be kept in
other parts of the house or slowed
away in obscure places in order that
,he room may be presentable when
strangers come. The modern kitchen
is not intended to fill the place of a
reception room. and only in exception
al cases should it be used as q dining
room.

THE USEFUL ATOM.

Every atom in existence has its special use. they
say;
There is rothing from the mountain to the small

That Is not in some way needed TO make up the

Still I've often doubted this
When I've seen a gentle miss
With that was diShgured by a dark, obtrasive
mole.
There is nothing absolutely not a solitary thing
That is not in way useful in the final reckon

Every weed and every splinter has special purpose

To the man whose path is drear
For the reason that an atom has found Judgment

Birthday of the First Imperial Madmen- August 81

the first of the imperial madmen Of
Rome, was born. He Is usually known
in history as Caligula, a nickname given
10 him by the soldiers Of his fathers
command, among whom he was a great
favorite in his childhood. The name was
derived from "caliga," a kind Of foot
covering worn by the common soldiers.
and is sometimes translated Little
Boots" Caligula was born at Antium.
and was educated In the camp. On the
death of his brother Drusus, he was made
augur in his stead. and on the death Of
Tiberius. when Caligula was twenty-five
years old. who. It was suspected, had re-
ceived foul play at his hands, II was
found that he had been appointed CO.
heir along with the grandson Of Tiberius,
but the senate and the people allowed
Caligula supreme and sole authority.
IN the beginning OF his reign he APP
peared hardly likely to fulfill the threat
Of Tiberius, who had talked OF educating
Caligula "for the destruction OF the Ro-
man people"
There was a good side to the Emperor,
which is shown in the just laws he en-
acted and the ancient ones he restored.
But it later turned out that his ostenta-
tious magnanimity was itself a disease, an
unwholesome affectation, founded on 70
principle or even humanity of heart
In consequence of this he turned his rule
into the Tevels OF a mailman, doing all
sorts Of ridiculous things, and was finally
assassinated when ne was thirty-nine
years Of age.
CaIIgula succeeded in spending in one
year the enormous wealth that had been
left by Tiberius He banished or muir
dered his relatives. He filled Rome with
executions, eonhscating the estates OF his
victims He amused himself while dining
by having victims tortured and slain in his
presence. He uttered the wish that "all
