PARIS. Jan 3.-President Armand took occasion to praise President Talt of the United States for his earnest efforts in trying to bring about the end of wars through treaties of peace.
 President Failieres stated he had read Mir. Taft's peace speech delivered In New York on Saturday evening and 1t was a masterful address Tha' all fair minded rulers and people wf" really wanted peace and the reiega- ton of barbaric customs of betting man against man. to the rear will concur with the head Of th" United States
 Men when they have reached the three score years and ten that 1t has been my fortune to do. and are reach ing out toward the four score years. love peace. not only between men but between nations. I hope to see the day when through the process of ar bitration all warfare will be done away with. There Is no reason why grievances between nations cannot be settled by an international court. much the same as controversies are now settled by national courts in the various nations. This is done with out the shedding of blood and impos- ing. yes infiiciing war tax upon the people that Is almost crime unto itself.
 T for one admire President Taft. in the stand he has taken for trying to bring about the peace of nations. and should he succeed he will erect to himself. his family and nation mon ument that will perpetrate the name of Taft for all ages to come.

diet and penalties often brutal, a sys,
tenn of merits and dement's, calculated
at once to arouse a boys interest, has
been instituted. A good, old-fashioned
spanking goes to the boy who passes
a certain limit in misbehavior. This
punishment is only inflicted after the
superintendent has investigated the
case, and it is applied in his presence.
TITS a punishment that every boy re-
spects," says the superintendent.
There is nothing brutal about it. 1t
is applied in the time-honored man
ner, and no better corrective has ever
been discovered"

Under the present system the num-
Der Of boys who II away from the
institution has greatly decreased, de-
spite the fact that the total enroll
ment has nearly q~uadrupled. No
punishment is now melted out to the
runaway boy upon his return. One
result is that of the boys who leave
more than so per cent. return within
a day or two, upon their own initia-
tive. The effort of the management
is to make a-boy forget he is a prison
er of the State, arrested for some
crime. To accomplish this an effort
is made to construct about the lads
a normal home life, the lack of which
has brought the majority to the insti-
tuition, and to surround them with op-
portunities for physical, moral and
spiritual betterment.

PRAYERS God Answers.

Desires turned toward God are pray
ers. Some people suppose that they
are praying only when they are on
their knees, or speaking to God in
some reverent attitude of devotion.
But many of the most real and most
acceptable prayers are never voiced in
words. They are only b~reathings of
the soul. longings of the heart, yearn-
ings and aspirations which cannot be
put into language. One of the Lords
beatitudes was for those who have
longings in their hearts. Blessed are
they that hunger and thirst after
righteousness: for they shall be filed"
Hungerings and thirstings after God,
desires to be better, longings for more
holiness, wishes for closer communion
with God, are prayers which God pro-
misses to answer. Hunger is a mark
of health. Not to hunger any more
indicates illness. 1t is SO in the body,
1t is SO in the mino, it is SO in the
soul. The true spiritual life is full of
iongings.

SUNDAY EVENING TEA.

There are some people old-fashioned
enough, and who come from the old
New England stock, who prefer a bowl
of mush and milk to any other supper
for Sunday night. For those who are
not so practical and wish TO serve a
more palatable supper, the following
may prove suggestive:
Cream Lobster on Toast-Make a
w~ell-seasoned white sauce, using
cream instead of milk; remove from
the fire and add finely faxed lobster
and a dash of paprika. Serve on OBJ
long pieces of toast. Any fish could
be used for this dish and would per
haps be more digestible.
For a pretty salad, cut small toma-
toes down the outside to resemble a
flower. Serve with chopped celery,
nuts and mayonnaise.
For a simple supper dessert there is
nothing nicer than sponge cake with
fruit. 1t may be served baked in
forms or cut in squares with the fruit
and strip poured ver and served with
whipped cream or served as cake with
a dish of the fruit.
Surprise cake-A most delightful
cake is just the simple cup cake baked
in muffin pans and when cold are cut
open and some of the inside removed
then filed with whipped cream
sweetened and favored.
Peach SaIad.-Halve and stone large
fresh peaches, fill the cavities with a
mixture of walnut meats, pieces OF
pear and a little minced celery. Serve
with whipped cream dressing.
If there are any little people to have
supper with the grown-ups, get some
of the animal crackers, drop a little
thick sugar strip in the center of a
sailed cracker and press the animal
cracker in a standing position; it will
soon be firm. The children love these
crackers, and they are better for them
than too much cake.

MRS. CLEVELAND
TO MARRY AGAIN
Ex-President's Widow Announ-
ces Engagement to Professor
TEACHER AT WELLS COLLEGE
Wedding Date Not Set-Fiance Took
Degree at Princeton and Studied
Archaeology After He Was
Forty Years Old.

Princeton, N. Mrs. Grover Cleve-
land, widow of the former President
of the United States, is to be married
next April to Professor Thomas Pres
ton, of Wells College, Aurora, New
York.
Although formal announcement has
not been made until after the debut
of Miss Esther Cleveland this winter,
the fact of the engagement has been
known for several days among the in
innate friends of Mrs. Cleveland and
Professor Preston.
The second romance of the woman
who, as "The Bride of the White
House," charmed a nation, and whose
high character and devotion to her
distinguished husband have been, by
example, d national influence toward
high ideals of wifehood, is the out
come of an acquaintanceship Of little
more than a years duration. I.
Mrs. Cleveland is a graduate of
Wells College, and has been a trustee
of it since 1887. She was married to
Grover Cleveland in the White House
when he was President. Cleveland
was the first President to marry in
the White House.
Mrs. Cleveland's father, Oscar Fol-
som, was a law partner of Cleveland,
who on Folsom's death in 1875 became
Frances Folsom's guardian.
After his retirement from the Pres
idency Cleveland made his perman-
ent home in Princeton, and Mrs.
Cleveland has continued to live there
since the former President died in
1908. Her two daughters, Esther and
Marion, and her son, Richard F., are
living with her there.
Mrs. Cleveland is 48, two years
younger than Professor Preston, who
is so. She was born on July 81, 1864.
Professor Preston did not enter
Princeton until he was 40 years old,
because sickness in his youth had
caused him to give up hope of COM
pleting his education. He was how
ever, very popular with the students
despite the difference in age.
The engagement Of Mrs. Cleveland
was a surprise to her friends, who be-
lieved she never would be married
again. They said she met Professor
Preston when she went to Wells Col
lege. He was a friend of Cleveland.
