Young Frederick was brought up

erick. In 1880, when he was eighteen
years old. planned to escape from
bondage and to take refuge with his
uncle, King George H. of England. He
needed confederate to help him es-
cape. So he chose his dearest friend,
Lieut.. Won Katie.
The plot was discovered by the king
Won Katie was thrown into prison and
was sentenced by military court-mar-
tial to remain there for two years.
Frederick was also arrested and taken
before his father. The king was mad
with rage. heaped vile insults on the
helpless youth, then rushed fiercely at
him. beating him almost to death be-
fore bystanders could drag him away.
But this did not check Frederick Will
liams wrath. He declared that
his son, as colonel IN the Prussian
army. had been guilty OF attempted
desertion In trying to escape to Eng
land. He had him placed In solitary
confinement In the fortress OF Custrin
and ordered him beheaded.
Only the stern protests of other Eu-
ropean sovereigns prevented the king
from carrying out this unnatural
threat. But he chose another punish
ment almost as cruel. Condemning
Lieut.. Won Katie to death, he had a
scaffold erected just outside Freder-
ick's prison window and forced the
wretched prince to witness his friends
execution. AS the lieutenant mounted
the scaffold Frederick called out to
him, sobbing:
"Oh, forgive me. dear Kattel"
The lieutenant answered bravely:

The king next tried In vain to force
Frederick to give up his claims as
heir to the throne. Failing In this. he
kept him long In semi-imprisonment

COMBINE BLACK AND VIOLET
Mixture Of coIors That the Expert
Dressmaker Uses to Much
Advantage.

Dress is most alluring this season,
and there is such variety in style that
not only every taste but every indi-
vidual figure can be suited. Black
and violet as regards dress for recep-
ton and every afternoon wear is a
fashionable alliance, and-we note 1t
principally in taffetas and satin cos
tunes, while with the black cloth or
eponge tailor-made blouse of bright
velvet charmeuse and guipure inser-
ton yelled with black ninon de sole
is fitting accompaniment.
The mauve foulard with black or
mauve ninon overskirt is being ex-
plotted with success, as is the pannieY
coat costume of black and deep purple
Liberty satin.
A charming model of this style has
the coat gathered at the waist. with
belt coming high in front and made
Of exquisite black, purple and ecru
embroidery. This continues in band
form on either side of the coat fronts,
while the bodice portion is arranged
in wide pleats. and the pearl-shaped
sleeves reach only little way below
the elbow.

FEEDER RACKS SAVE FODDER AND LABOR

Self-feeder racks for supplying
roughage to sheep or cattle are not
only the means Sof saving consider
able labor. but, according to tests
made at the Colorado experiment
station, are the means of saving a
great deal of hay. One lot Of lambs at
this station were fed whole hay in a
seif-feeder rack. and another lot
whole hay in racks on the ground,
such as are In common use in many
sections OF the country. The average
gain OF these two lots was practically
the same. the lot feeding from the
self-feeder averaging only one pound
heavier than the other. says the
American Agriculturist Also. the
grain consumed varied but little. be-
ing only nine pounds more for 100
pound gain in the flrst lot than In
the second. The great saving came In
the cost of roughage.
The lot eating from the self-feeder
consumed COL pounds of hay for each
100 pounds of gain. and those eating
OFF the ground consumed 1888 pounds
of hay for each 100 pounds of gain.
This indicates difference of prac-
tically 20 per cent In favor OF the

The girl who realizes how e1-
tremely becoming the collarless frock
has proved to be will be glad to learn
OF its continued popularity.
For this reason the high-neck ruff
fes and ruches of tulle, chiffon and
taffeta, with their small clusters of
flowers set at intervals around the

carded and 1t is necessary to have
some protection.

are shaped to follow the outline OF
the hair back OF the ears.

AVOID THE coLoRED FRocK
Average Woman Will Make No Nils

to White Material.

The woman of limited income
should not be tempted by colored
linen frocks. They are not a wise
investment when gowns must neces-
sarily be few in number. They are
almost sure to fade. and even while
they possess all their original glory
they cannot be touched up and varied
by colored cravat and belt. as the
white outfit can. Such is the imper-
ishable beauty of white that even the
inexpensive material known as sail
cloth. which can be bought for about
80 cents yard, can be made to look
smarter than the average colored lin
en-. Those venturing upon costumes
of sail-cloth should, however, to make
assurance doubly sure. see that the
material has been well shrunk before
1t is made up.

Keep Soil Out Of

After the celery plants are well
started in July. commence to culti-
vate. 1t is much better to give shall
low cultivation rather than deeper
ones. as the roots OF celery grow quite
near the surface. and cultivating two
inches deep will accomplish Just as
much as four inches, provided. Of
course. that the ground is cultivated
often enough to keep a mulch Of
loose soil. When the plants have at
tanned height OF about ten inches
blanching may be started.
Usually the plants will be quite
spreading, and they should be first
gathered together. and held In place
with one hand. while the soil is drawn
to them with hoe in the other hand.
Care should be exercised that no soil
gets into the heart Of the plant. This
is likely to cause the plant to rot
Killing should not be done when the
ground Is dry enough to crumble. II
done when the soil is wet the plants
are liable to rust. On a small scale
celery may be blanched by putting
boards inch thick and 2 to IA inches
wide on each side of the row and I'LL

sawdust or soil.

Omn indbtci. nt idu Wdb GeuTO l.,
king Of the Spanish states of CASTLE
and Leon. He Is known to history as
Pedro the Cruel"
Many acts that would nowadays be
regarded as barbarous cruelty were
then looked upon as mere deeds OF Jus
tice and necessity. 1t was an unbe-
lievably brutal and cruel age. For a
man in that century to win the title
of THE Cruel implied monstrous
character.
Pedro. as mere boy. fell under the
influence of one OF the most beauti-
full. clever and INSCRIPTIONS women
OF all history. She was Maria de
Padilla. 1t was she who prompted him
to cast aside his counsellors and to
declare himself king. Her next step
was to induce him to give her rela-
tives the highest court Offices. The
crafty old prime minister, Albu-
querque, had strengthened Maria's In
fluence over Pedro in the hope OF ad-
vancing his own interests. But Maria
made Pedro dismiss albuquerque from
service. Courtiers who failed to pay
her all sorts of extravagant compli-
ments were put to death by the king s
orders. A money lender who refused
to advance money for her expendi-
lures is said to have been boiled in
oil.
When Pedro was twenty II was ar
ranged that he should marry gentle
and lovely French princess, Blanche
OF Bourbon. Maria fearing to lose
her own power over the young king.
hit on truly devilish trick for max
ing him hate his sweet young wife.
Blanche gave Pedro splendid jew
eled girdle as bridal gift. Maria.
by sleight-of-hand feat, stole the
girdle and put in Its place poisonous
snake. She then worked on Pedro's
superstitions by telling him Blanche
was sorceress. and had sought to
kill him by means of the "bewitched"
girdle. In terror, Pedro sent his In
nocent wife to prison. (Tbey had
been married just three days.)
For this and for other acts OF cru
city and misrule the people murmur-
ed. They took Blanche's part So
did Pedro's half-brother, Don Fad
rique. Pedro assured them that he
loved Blanche and would set her free.
Instead. he put her to death. He In
vited Fadrique to the palace and went
forth to greet him as the latter enter

prettiest fancies in dress ornamental

wishes the austerely tailor-built Co.'S

very pretty miracle. The most fash

Now tho "Jupe PantaIon.v

The latest thing In tailormades is
the 'jupe pantalon."' 1t has little in
common with the "jupe culotte," or
harem skirt, except that that gave US
the bottom of the trousers, and the
"1upe pantalon" gives us the top of
the same garments. 1t Is skirt with
series of little close gatherings at
the waist. These are confined by small
buckles similar to the one used on
a mans trousers. At each side of the
skirt Is pocket. and In order to COM
plete the resemblance to masculine
wearing apparel, braces fastened by
buttons back and front hold up the
skirt. With this garment Is worn a
shirt Of white percale, perfectly fat
and plain. with long sleeves, wristlets
and high stiff collar, in fact a mans
shirt in all its unadorned severity.

This is equal to about IA cents on
each lamb. Counting four lambs per

pay for itself In two years. 1t is
thought that when type of self

signal from Pedro. Fadrique was
stabbed to death by an assassin.
A second half-brother was disposed
of by Pedro in like manner. So were
many noblemen. At last, under a
third half-brother. Henry of Trasta-
mara, the mobiles rebelled against Pc
dro. The pope communicated him
for his series of black crimes. He
was driven out OF Spain by Henry and
by the latter's allies, the white Com
panies" (soldiers of fortune). Taking
refuge In France, Pedro fell in with
the Black Prince" heir apparent of
England. who was ravaging the French
lands. By making certain glittering
promises of reward Pedro induced the
Black Prince to help him regain his
throne. At the head OF an English
army they marched into Spain. There,
in the fierce battle (Navarete, 1850,
they beat Henry. Pedro was once more
king.
He failed to keep any OF the prom
ises he had made, and the Black
Prince left Spain In disgust. AS soon
as the dreaded English troops were
gone the war broke out anew. Henry
gained many victories He could not
wholly conquer the king. At last. in
1869. he induced Pedro to come to his
tent for peace conference.
Scarcely had the two haIf-brothers
met in the tent than they flew at each
others throats like angry dogs.
Henry stabbed Pedro with a dagger.
But the blade broke off against the
coat of mail the king wore under his
cloak Pedro then. by main force,
caught Henry in his arms and hurled
him to the ground. But one of Henry's
followers tripped Pedro and sent him
sprawling. Before the fallen king
could scramble to his feet, Henry
drove a sword through his throat.
Thus perished Pedro the Cruel in
his thirty-sixth year Henry seized
the throne. put the slain monarch's
two sons In a cage and starved them
to death. Scoundrel though Pedro was,
he had been loved by the common peo-
pie. Many OF them prospered under
his reign. and whimsical sense of
fairness on his part had led them to
nickname him Pedro the Just"

BATS OF VALUE
TO THE FARMER
Besides Destroying Mosquito~
and Other Noxfous Insects
Guano Deposita
Are Rich.

tBy III. w. HENSHAW. Chief Biological
Survey. Department OF Agriculture.)
There is no doubt OF the great value
OF bats in the destruction OF mosQui.
toes and other noxious insects. espe,
cially beetles. For years we have been
Interested in the subject and have ex.
amined many bat stomachs. with
view to finding out the precise species
upon which the different bats feed
The investigation. however, is beset
with difficulties owing to the fact that
bats habitually seem to thoroughly
chew their insect food before swal-
lowing 1t. with the result that the de-
termination even of general insects
taken for food Is very dificult, while
the Identification OF soft-bodied Insects
like mosquitoes is practically impos-
sible. Because they destroy SO many
Insects We advocate the protection OF
bats wherever they occur
None Of the species that inhabit the
United States do any harm, although
they sometimes cause annoyance by
congregating In large numbers in the
attics or under the caves OF country
houses. when the noise they make
coming and going frequently disturbs
the inmates Of the house. This trouble.
however, can always be easily cured
by stopping up the holes and compel
ing the bats to take up their residence
elsewhere.
In connection with the economic I'm.
portance Of bats the value OF their
guano as fertilizer is not to be over
looked, as It brings high price wher.
ever 1t can be obtained in marketable
quantities. In fact. the erection Of
artificial shelters for bats for the pur-
pose OF obtaining the guano has fre,
quently been advocated. as also has
an attempt to increase the number OF
the mammals. having In mind their
destruction OF noxious insects. espe.
cially mosquitoes.
We know Of at least one instance,
In Mexico. where a small dwelling was
given up to the exclusive use OF bate
for the purpose OF annually or semi
annually gathering the guano for sale
