queens have been fond of hearing tales Some of the most famous
stories have been those that were told to kings. 1 will tell you this evening a
in fact.
"Once upon q time there vas a king who al vey wealthy. He had only
ne child, a very beautiful daughter, who was the heiress to his throne and to
all his wealth. The kings country var a peace with all the world, and the
king IA nothing to do but to listen ito stories He "a very fond of them, but
he had one fault to find with all # the stories that were told to him-that is
they were Ill too short. So the king sent tut a proclamation as follows:
IF any nan will come ito my palace and tell me a story that has u 20 end
b e shall marry my daughter, and after 1 am dead he shall be king and shall
have all my wealth. But if any man shall try to tell a story without a n end
and shall fail he shall have his head cut off,
"Of course every N wished to marry the beautiful princess and be king
and be very wealthy, but they were all afraid tic try to tell a story without an
end. One rash young man did try It, His story lasted three months. Then
he could think Of no more to say, 81 his head vas cut off. The king thought
he would never hear a story without an end. But one day q man came to the
palace to try for the prize. His story was as follows:
lone day, o king he said, there ws a king who was very greedy. He
seized all the corn in his country and locked it up in a grahary where the PEG.
pie could not get at it. But the locusts found out where the grain ws kept
and vent foT ii. And lie locust Il III and carried away N grain of corn
And another locust came ant carried away another grain of corr And an
And SO the story went n n OF IN o. for a week and a month and a
away YETI ~
"Oh, no. said the story teller; there were miles and miles of corn in the
granary, and the Hcuss have hardly carried away a foot Of it YETI
"I wish they would come and carry away you and your story said the
king. I don't want to near any more about your locusts Take my daughter
and my kingdom and my money; only don't let INT hear any more about your
locuss. I'm sick and tired of them And he never listened to another story"

The Notes TO Write.

A girl need not be a brilliant writer
to send out pleasing wedding notes.
What is needed is sincere gratitude,
gracefully but not gushingly expressed.
Overpraise is almost as annoying as
indifference.
Never be guilty of a set form; your
friends are sur to compare notes and
laugh over ready letter writer effects.
Aim to give the individual touch, to
introduce the few words that make
the sender realize that she is really
being thanked, not a job lot of givers.
1t is customary to include your fanee
in thanking for a wedding present
Though the gift comes to the glri, it is
actually for both and should be SO
acknowledged.
1t Is also the custom to tell your
friends you will be glad to have them
come in and see your presents. This
Is particularly necessary when there
is to be no reception and you are to
live out of town. Set hours may be
mentioned II you do not wish to be
bothered with a run of visitors.
Many brides write notes to their own
friends and work a substitute for the
friends of their husbands. This is a
great mistake, since strangers have
often no other way to Judge the bride
than by her note of thanks.

The Chaperon Question.

Is the chaperon growing less neces-
sary? Is it always necessary for a
party of young people to have a chap
eron2 asks ar anxious mother.
The good fellowship which prevails
among young men and young women
at the present time has not lessened
the importance Of the chaperon. At all
times a chaperon is considered best
form, and no matter how well q party
of young people may know one another
the presence OF a chaperon gives
dignity to whatever good time they
may have On hand and also safety In
case of an unforeseen disaster, as an
older woman presumably has her wits
about her in an emergency and can
decide what is best to be done. Wei
bred girls and men would not for an
instant think of going off on any expe-
dition unless a chaperon accompanied
them.

The girl who is popular Is she VINO
makes a study Of the things that are
better left unsaid. One need not be
aggressive in speech to be a social
failure.
oh, those things that mean no actual
harm, yet make us squirml
Sometimes thoughtlessness is at
fault, again a too hasty tongue, more
often lack Of fine feeling.
There is nothing, for instance, in an
nouncing you have been invited to a
certain luncheon or dinner, yet, when
that announcement makes another wo-
man realize she is a fill up, far better
would 1t be to say nothing about it.
You may think it shows how popular
is your guest to remark the number of
things that are being given In her
honor. Tell of this entertaining to G
friend who feels she should do like
wise, but is prevented by poverty. 1t
is one of the things far better left IN
said.
II you are the hostess who has
achieved at much trouble two tables
of bridge or a simple family dinner for
a friends house guest. don't you feel
when that friend that she
was compelled to turn down an elab-
crate luncheon for your invitation that
the information might with better
taste have been suppressed?

money. The main point, however, is
to rid Washington homes of such
flies as carry typhoid and the germs
of other filth diseases; and whatever
~the-cost, the destruction of millions
of these insects Wilt be worth all that
Is paid. Newark paid its boys and
girls a certain sun per quart for
picking 'caterpillars that were de-
stroying the trees and shrubs, and
immense numbers of this pest were
killed. The lesson thus taught the
children of destroying what ought to
be destroyed and saving the birds
and other creatures worth saving is
a valuable part of the work C
plished."

THE NEW CRIB.

The up to date mother, you say
doesn't approve of cribs-she thinks
the motion of rocking upsetting to the
little ones nervous system? Wel9 the
crib hasn't gone out of commission
yet, even If she does not approve OF
this form of bed, and the latest In
vention in cribs is mighty apt to win
over the most stubborn anti-cribite.
1t is the most hygienic thing so far
made in this line. The framework is
of iron painted white. The sleeping
quarter Is suspended from the frame
work and made Of strong white duck
canvas. At will this crib may be
turned into a walking chair or a chair
In which baby may safely sit sur
rounded with toys while mother works
or reads. The price OF the crib is only
$3.50

Young girls who land unaccompanied

THE WAR IS ON.

THE WAR Is ON.
The machine" republicans IL
New York could have done nothinf
better than turn down Theodore
Roosevelt for temporary chairman O
the state convention, and select as
their choice for the place Vice Presi-
dent Sherman, the subservient tool
of Aldrich and Cannon. 1t was clear
from the beginning that Roosevelt
could not associate with that crowd.
While he hesitated before taking any
definite stand, 1t is evident that he
was only waiting for the machine
leaders to make the first move.
They have made 1t and Roosevelt
has spoken.
The former President, who is the
great leader of the common people,"
has now come out on the side of the
progressives-or "insurgents," If
you prefer the term There will be
no more dallying. The fight to put
the people, instead of the corpora
lions, in control of the party will
take on new impetus. Roosevelt is
the leader and the great mass of
voters will gladly fall In behind.
The suspense is we and the war
ia on. The republican voters will
now have to stand up and be count
ed. Those who prefer the old re-
gime. with the bosses in control,
legislating for the benefit of the
Interests" will support the ma
chine" Those who think the people
are capable Of taking some part in
the government: those who r for
the conservation of the natural re-
sources of the country, for a real
revision of the tariff downward SO
that the trusts cannot have every
thing their own way; those who are
In favor Of having their legislators
In congress represent them without
submitting to the dictation of Can
non, will stand by Roosevelt and the
paogressives.
1t is stated that the New York
machine" which has just turned
down Roosevelt, expects the next
governor to be a democrat. They
anticipate, and apparently welcome,
party defeat. They think that by a
democratic sweep this year they can
eliminate Roosevelt so that in 1912
they can have everything their own
way again. 1t may be true that
they can cause a democratic victory
in New York this fall. In fact, 1t
looks like a democratic sweep
throughout the country. But the
machine" leaders can rest assured
that when the party is ~rehabitated it
will be with Roosevelt and the pro-
gr~essives In full charge. The Wood
ruhs, Barnes and other ring lead
ers will be forgotten In New York
just as the Bairds, Murphys, Strongs
and other guardians will be lost
in New Jersey.
In this country the people will
rule. The party boss can do his own
debating for a time, but it has got
to end.
The republicans now engaged In
purging their party of the corrupt
leaders and corporation representa-
tives who occupy high places in the
party councils, are just as much re
publican as they ever were. They
are simply fighting to get the contro
of the party back into the hands Of
the people. Theodore Roosevelt ii
the peoples leader in this grea'
struggle. The machine" realizes
this and 1t has opened the first en-
gagement.
The war is on. Let it be to th'
Hnish.
