TRUTH ABOUT SIR WALTER
Modern Version Of the Episode Of Ra-
leigh, Queen Elizabeth and
the Mud.

It was a hot July afternoon and
Queen Elizabeth, accompanied by.
her glittering household suite, was
about to cross the highway, when her.
further progress was barred by a.
muddy gutter
Instantly the warm-haired queen;
looked around at Sir Walter Raleigh,i
and that worthy knight promptly
stepped forward.
"I'd be very glad, your majesty"
he said with a courtly bow, ito back

side, but I don't possess such an ar
ticle, and as charter member Of
the Ananias society l haven't even
a coat. Nevertheless, your Uncle
Walt isn't the man to be baked by a

So saying, he quickly picked up
his sovereign lady and, encouraged
by the gay laughter Of the court,
carried her across the miry channel
and lightly deposited her on the
other side.

POPULAR DOCTOR.

I believe he was quite a good doc
tor, but many people employed him
for his personal charm, and the
story was current that sometimes
when the case was not urgent he
would sit talking to the friends and
go away without referring to the.
matter in hand. We youngsters
were always delighted to see him, for
he had always something unexpected
to say or do. He would take his
watch out Of one pocket and gravely
refer to it, or direct special attention
to some article of dress whose nov
city he commended; and once when
driving with friend he leaned out
of the carriage as if in search of
something. "What are you looking
for?" she asked, ''some one you
know" TNo," he said, "I'm look
ing at deg I don't know" From

MODEST GEORGE MOORE.

! "I WONDER" says the author of
Esther Waters" complacently in
s'The Apostle" just published in
Dublin, eff Paul has ever been seen
by any man as clearly as he has been
seen by me-" He paints fancy por-
trait of the apostle and this is part
of his picture:
"a man of medium height, about
five feet eight or nine, a round head
covered with dark curly hair, short
neck, square shoulders, long body,
thick legs, with some belly under his
girdle. His large luminous eyes
often look into mine, and sometimes
he appears with his shirt open.''
The description is vivid in detail,
but not, we think, in good taste !;
and was not St. Paul short sighted ?

THE TEST FOR A REPUBLIC.

The time was when a revolution
simply meant a change from one
military ruler, or dictator to an
other, but since the success ,.of the
fathers of Our country in their
memorable tilt with one George
III, the revolutionists have gener-
ally tried to found a republic.
But many failures by so-called re-
publican forms of government dur
ing the last century has demon
strated that something besides the
overthrow of a monarchal and the
establishment of a republican form
of government is necessary in or
der to bring lasting benefit to the
people of the country who make
such a change. The periodical
revolutions in South America, the
recent war in Mexico and the in
ternal disturbances in Portugal
show that there is certain stand
ard in intelligence required Of a
people before they are capable of
making a success of republicanism.
The recent rather quiet election
held in Mexico at which the late
revolutionary leader, Francisco I.
Madero, Jr., was chosen president,
is hailed by many as meaning the
certain re-establishment of domes-
tic tranquility in that country, but
the Chicago Inter-Ocean thinks
otherwise. In the opinion of that
paper The test will come when
there is nobody in the field who
practically dictates his election,
when there is no single dominant
personality whom it is peri1ous for
would-be presidential candidates to
oppose, when, in a word, there are
several real candidates for the
presidency of the republic. each
with considerable following and
determination to have their bal
lots cast.
If under those circumstances
president is chosen and peacefully
accepted by people and other cam
didates alike, Mexico will have
reason to believe that she has en-
parked on a path which does not
lead around by the old way Of
revolution to a new dictatorship.
But until she has met and stood
that test it is idle to imagine that
real republican institutions have
taken firm root in Mexico"

THE MIDDLEMAN.

Speaking of the high cost of liv-
ing, the strouble seems to lie large
ly with that mysterious middle
man." The machinery we have
for distributing the products of the
producer to the hungry mouths of
the consumer, in some way exacts
too great a toll. An exchange
calls attention to the fact that
within fifteen or twenty miles OF
Cleveland, there are large apple
orchards, where from the highways
one may see fat hogs surfeited and
overwhelmed by vast quantities of
sound apples lying on the ground
where the swine wander lazily
about, unable to make any visible
impression on the fruit going to
waste, yet in Cleveland fruit stores
apples are sold by the dozen at or
ange prices" This sad condition
of affairs has become so insuffer-
able that it has been called atten-
ton to by the poet who says:
Somewhere between the farmer
and the grocer's where I buy
there's mysterious pirate. who is
knavish, bold and sly; he levies
toll on all the goods that pass along
his way and takes the cream of
proht-so I've heard my grocer
say. When melons leave the far
mer's field the price is very low,
but when they reach the grocer's
they are thirty cents or SO. | ask
my grocer why between the field
and store this span. He always
makes the same reply: Oh, that's
the middleman!"

Heretofore japanese and Malays

They are in peculiar pink, having
blue-gray cast and shade into centers

roses and a cluster of two are set
about the bonnet on velvet band.
This model has the virtue of being
suited to evening wear at any season
of the year and to the fashionable
promenade at summer or winter re-
sorts in the daytime. The design is
not one of the sort TO have wide
vogue-it is not what is termed a

son is never unfashionable. The lin

LACE WORN ON MILLINERY
Some of the Smartest Hats Have This
Garniture, and II Is Ef-
fective.

This is an excellent season for
bringing out the family lace box and
going through it carefully to see what
treasure it really contains. There are
an infinite number of ways in which
bits of lace may be employed. Not
the least of these is a garniture on
ones new millinery. Some of the very
smartest hats are to be trimmed with
lace or made entirely OF It. White
lace is especially favored, and will be
seen on picturesque bonnets as well
as on smart walking toques. One Of
the new designs is a bonnet made of
white lace and trimmed with ruchings
of narrow black velvet. The only 9th
er garniture is a posy of tiny pink
roses. A toque of black straw has a
jabot of white lace going up the front
and over the crown something after
the manner of an ostrich plume.

~ nee more the word bonnet" in
I its limited, millinery sense, has a
place in the fashion reporters
vocabulary. Many of the shapes, which
we call hats, might as we'll be classed
under the other term. There are so
many shapes that really cover the
head and are almost entirely off the
face that the regulation poke bonnet,
the Corday cap and the "Wilhelmina"
cap do not seem extreme.
Germaine gave US the pretty model
made of narrow val lace which is
shown here. The lace is shirred on
fine wires and the art of the milliner
is set forth here in a way TO demand
our admiring attention. A little frill
Of lace surrounds the face and peeps
from under the very broad band of
velvet ribbon which is laid about the
bonnet This band terminates in a
long single end, which, when not
wound about the neck, will fall below
the knee. The end falls from the left
side. The frame curves in to fit the
neck and a fiat or "tailors" bow of
narrower velvet ribbon is sewed to
the bonnet at this point. The combina-
tion of cream lace and the rich black
of the velvet is handsome, but this

Avoid the Cheap and "Big Can" Bak-
ina Powders

The cheap baking powders have but one
recommendation: they certainly give the
purchaser plenty of powder for his money
but it's not all baking powder; the bulk
is made up of cheap materials that have
no leavening power. These powders are
so carelessly made from ixEior mate
rails that they will not ,makdeht, whole
some food. Further, these cheap baking
powders have very small percentage OF
leavening gas; therefore it takes from two
to three times as much of such powder to
raise the cake or biscuit as it does of Calu-
met Baking Powder. Therefore, in the long
run, the actual cost to the consumer of the
cheap powders is more than Calumet
would be-
Why not buy perfectly wholesome bak-
ing powder like Calumet, that is at the
same time moderate in price and one
which can be relied upon? Calumet gives
the cook the least trouble.
