SYNOPSIS.

Senator John Calhoun is offered the
portfolio of secretary of state in Tyler s
cabinet. He declares that If he accepts
1t means that Texas and Oregon must be
added to the Union. He plans to learn
the intentions of England with regard to
Mexico, through Baroness Won Ritz, Sc
eret spy and reputed mistress OF the
English ambassador, Pakenham. He
sends his secretary, Nicholas Trist, to
bring the baroness to his apartment.
While searching for the baroness home,
a carriage drives up and he is invited to
enter. The occupant is the baroness, who
says she is being pursued The pursuers
are shaken off. The baroness consents TO
see Calhoun. Nicholas notes that she
has lost Slipper. She gives Nicholas the
remaining slipper as pledge that she
will tell Calhoun all, and, as security,
Nicholas gives her trinket he intended
for his sweetheart, Elizabeth Churchill
Nicholas is ordered to leave at once for
Montreal on state business, by Calhoun,
who has become secretary of state, and
plans to be married that night. Tyler
warns Pakenham that interference by
England in the affairs of this continent
will not be tolerated. The west de
nands that the joint occupancy of Ore
yon with Great Britain cease, and has
raised the cry of "Fifty-four, Forty or
Fight" The baroness tells Nicholas she
will do her bes2 to prevent his marriage.
She returns the trinket and he promises
20 return her slipper. Nicholas enlists
the services of Congressman cambridge,
Q rejected sutton of Elizabeth's, to assist
in the arrangements for the wedding and
entrusts him with the return of the slip
per to the baroness The congressman
gets drunk and sends the slipper to Eliza
beth. The wedding is declared off, and
Nicholas is ordered from the house by
EliZaheths father. Nicholas is ordered
to gain access to a meeting of the Hud-
son Bay directors in Montreal and learn
England's intentions regarding oregon.
Nicholas sees the baroness leave the di-
rectors' meeting in Montreal, where he
had failed to gain admission.

To ARRANGE Flowers.

Here are five golden rules when
should be observed by those who often
arrange flowers. Use plenty of foliage.
Put your flowers in very lightly. Use
artistic glasses. Do not put more than
two or, at the most, three different
kinds of flowers in one decoration.
Arrange your colors to form a bold
contrast or, better still, soft har-
mony. The aim of the decorator should
be to show off the fowers-not the
vases that contain them; therefore the
simpler ones are far preferable to
even the most elaborate. Glasses for
a dinner table should be either white.
a delicate shade of green, or rose col
or, according to the flowers arranged
In them.

In the early days of the reign of the
late King Leopold of Belgium sew
enth son was born to Brussels WON

was told that the boy was the seventh
successive one and that no girl had
come to the family, he asked to be the
baby's godfather. Ever since then

ers have received gifts in keeping
with their station in life. King AL

short time ago, had some difficulty
because the seventh son was twins"
according to the Frankfurter Zeitung
He could not stand for both boys, be
cause that would give the family two
Alberts. The remedy was found by
Queen Elizabeth, who suggested that
her little son, the duke of Brabant
be the godfather of the eighth boy
who consequently received the name
of Leopold"

With Madam the Baroness.

With Madam the Baroness.

have fought battles, given their lives and
staked their souls.-Mrs w. K. Clifford

She answered me in her own way.
Monsieur hesitates-he is lost!" she
said. But see, l am weary l have
been much engaged to-day. / have
made it my plan never to fatigue my
self. 1t is my hour now for my bath,

Believe me, our breakfast shall be as
good. Threlka is expert in omelets,
and our coffee is such as perhaps you
may not find general in these prov
inces."
Was there the slightest hooking

me as faint-heart? l could not tell,
but did not like the thought.

EASY CHANGE
When Coffee Is Doing Harm.

A lady writes from the land of cot
ton of the results of four years use
of the food beverage Postum.
Ever since can remember we had
used coffee three times a day. 1t had
a more or less injurious effect upon
us all, and l myself suffered almost
death from Indigestion and nervous
ness caused by 1t.

would feel better. But 1t was hard to.
give it up, even though realized how
harmful it was to me.
"At last / found q perfectly easy
way to make the change. Four years
ago abandoned the coffee habit and
began to drink Postum, and also in

the same. Even the children are al

good.
II no longer suffer from indigestion,
and my nerves are In admirable tone

Caring for Birds In New Jersey.

Birds and the small wild animals in
this township were hard pressed for
food during the days the ground was
all covered with snow. The miller at
Hancock's Bridge scattered a little
seed In front of the mill door, and
larks, some of them so weak they
could scarcely walk, and other birds
gathered there and ate, not afraid Of
man for the moment, SO emboldened
were they by hunger.
A turkey buzzard entered farmers
hen roost for shelter and was removed
to his pig pen. SO hard pressed for
God was it that It ate corn.-Lower
