Queen Alexandra never touches re-

pudding or pastry and for dessert has

She is particularly fond. of nuts and

quantities of cream.

Prehistoric Needle Factory.

Not so long ago much interest was
awakened in England by the discov-
cry of prehistoric lake village near
Glastonbury. The dwellings were
placed on mounds of clay raised ahove
the level of the water. The frame
work of primitive loom was found
under one mound and the number of
broken bone needles and bone splint-
ers discovered in another mound led
the explorers to think that it may
have been the site of an ancient
needle factory.
Very few bones have been discov-
cred, but among the interesting finds
is a blue glass bead with a waving
dark line running around it. One 81
the mounds contains 800 tons of clay
all of which must have been dug from
the surrounding hills and carried To-
the spot In boats Scientific Ameri.

The little woman's husband followed
her. He felt that he ought to settle
this matter once for all.

proceeded to refresh the hat
She put the ribbon on in nrofl sion

When this work was finished She
donned the creation and starred fer

The bookkeepers deliberately starld
at it. But the little woman, with he

The little woman thanked him and
departed. When she had gone, he

His Faulty
Memory

Jimmy was developing into a VERT
able Ananias. He told untruths great
and small. He told them at all times,
on all occasions. whenever the least
opportunity presented itself.
His teacher, Miss Gray, and his par
ents Joined efforts to correct the
growing evil After some time of pa
tient endeavor on their part. there
was considerable Improvement. But
it was too much for Jimmy; he
couldn't stand the strain, so he re-
lapsed into his old habit. He was
apparently incorrigible
The situation reached point one
day where Miss Gray felt she must
have help, so she wrote note to
tJfmmy's father. She knew that the
boy had a great deal of respect for
his father, and she felt certain of
good results-at least temporarily.
The next morning, when the pupils
came trooping into the room, Bessie
Lane stopped at the teachers desk
and wiggled her hand until Miss Gray
asked her what she wanted.
Now, teacher" she began in her
thin, piping voice. now, seen jim
my Wilson tear up your note in the
schoolyard yesterday"
Very well. Take your seat, Bes-
sie.'
Close on the little girls heels came
two boys. Both began talking at
once.
"one at a time. please, boys What
is it. Henry?"
Thus addressed, Henry blurted out
breathlessly: Jim Wilson tore up
the note you sent to his father yester-
day."
90, yes, ma'am, an seen him do
1t, too-right in the schooiyard," cor
roborated the other boy.
