LAWYER PRIZE PICKER OF
BEAUTIFUL ENGLISH WORDS
Melody, Radiance, Liberty and Adors-
ton Prominent In List.

A prize offered by Granville Eleiser
Of New York TO pupils Of the Public
Speaking club Of America for list
the twenty-five most beautiful
,prds in the English language was
won by James Shea. a lawyer.
Words were judged according to
their beauty Of sound and beauty Of
meaning. and out Of twenty-five sub
mitted by Shea twenty-one were ac-
cepted. Grace. justice and truth were
rejected. The harshness of & in grace
and ] In justice disqualified them, and
truth was turned down because Of its
metallic sound. The words accepted
as the most beautiful in the language

II IS related that when the one hun

discovered, many years ago, certain as
tronomers organized celebration OF
the event and that while the solemn
ties were in preparation two or three
more asteroids were picked out IN the
sky BY the diligent observers.
These bodies, so ia. as recognized
and officially mapped, Tow number $50

Ireland that if Redmond wins home

forcible remonstrance.

Goats, on the Contrary, Eat Almost

An apology is due TO the farmyard
pig. who has been grossly maligned in
regard to his food. Instead of being
ready to eat anything he has just
proved himself the most fasddious of
animals. Experiments recently carried
on in France and Sweden show this
TO be the case.
In Sweden the record tells that out
of 575 plants the goat eats 40 and
refuses 126, the sheep. out of 494

According to the bulletin of the Bureau OF Fish

nually, valued at about $750,0OO. 1t is prepared
from seaweeds of the genus gelidium. These

HOW QUEEN VICTORIA OF SPIN NURSES HER 0NA BABIES

TTHE young Queen Of Spain has set an OK
ample TO the world as mother--not only
by having three babies, but by nursing
them herself.
If King Alfonso succeeds in escaping the wave
OF revolution that threatens him. II will be largely
on account Of the maternal and domestic virtues
OF his wife, which furnish continual pleasure and
ediflcatlon to the whole population of Spain
Queen Victoria has set at defiance the hide
hound traditions and etiquette that hamper the
acts Of queens and especially the acts Of the
Queens Of Spain.
The Queen OF Spain finds that II is not hard
task to nurse her own children, but the greatest
pleasure IN life. She takes the greatest pride In
the fact that she cares for them herself and she
has just been photographed in the gardens OF her
palace, Ia Granja. pushing the babies in their
perambulators. handling them ON her knee and
performing other maternal acts.
The Queen has three children. The Oldest,
Alfonso Prince Of the Asturias. was born In 1907
the second Don jaime in 1908, and the third,
Princess Beatrice In 1909. Another child was
born dead last year. All the three children are
practically babies at the same time, and give the
Queen great deal TO do
The Queen Is particularly careful to battle her
babies with her own hands. As everybody knows
this is most important feature in the modern
