III NOBLE WOMAN.

The Buffalo Times pays the follow
ing tribute to motherhood:
The greatest woman in the world?-
her name is legion. her title is Mother.
Who was the best mother ever lived?
We don't know, but in default of any
mention by ONE themselves, we SUBJ
nit the name of Cornelia, a Roman ma
iron, who when another woman out
sparkled her in jewelrY called her two
sons and said, These are my Jewels"
This was a very womanlike remark.
1t humanizes that dim ghost, Cornelia,
by the hint that she was just a bit
huffy when the other woman twinkled
the finer earrings. We like Mrs. Cor
nelia no less for that. Cornelia shall
be our candidate till Ella F1agg Young
or Mrs. Pankhurst or DR.! Anna How
ard Shaw. .or3some ether feminine cell

NO MINcE PIE.

- .
In formulating a definition of mince-
meat, DR.. Wiley has attempted to bring
within the scope of statutory legisla-
ton what belongs to tradition, says
The New York Evening Post. Mince-
meat is a tradition, and, not like all
traditions, is at the same time immut-
able and various. 1t is inmutable in
the sense that generations Of daughters
have set u piously to execute the
maternal recipe in order to obtain the
great preordained result. But, uncon-
sciously, the mood and personality OF
the worshipper mobiles the tradition
the Notwithstanding Of the housewife
projects itself into the hieratic recipe
and modi1es it. She adds a touch of
spice here and a dash of cordial there
without ever facing the guilty doubt
that she is false to the tradition of
mincemeat. And that is as 1t should
be.
1t is precisely the an process that
Professor Lounsbury admires in the
history Of linguistics. The English
language is no. what our fathers
made, but what our fathers language
becomes when we are through with it:
though it changes, it is still the Eng
lish tongue.
So DR.. Wiley is only playing the stiff
-srammarian's part in attempting to i'm
pose a formula where the spirit Of
evolutionary rlincemeat recognizes only
the authority of usage.

STATE POULTRY SHOW.

In citing the three factors which
will place North Dakota in the front
rank with her sister states, poultry,
the dairy cow n corn culture, it is
certainly ~pardonable on the part of
poultry raisers that their enterprise is

poultry production is conceded to be

teenth annual exhibit and the ana
nent promises that it will be larger
and better thar ever. which is saying
a great deal for it is generally conced-
I'd that the North Dakota poultry show
has won for itself an enviable II
ton in the matter of quality and dis
play of enterprise in the management
"A perusal of what is said by the edi-
tors and manage s of the leading poul-
try journals of the country will verify
the statements made.
Six years ago the North Dakota
poultry association reached the dig
nifty of recognition by the legislature
when the latter passed a bill which
provides an annual appropriation, Of
not less than $500, to be expended in
premiums designed for the express
purpose of assisting in the promotion
Of poultry breeding in the state. An
other dignity won. is an a~fhliation with
the American Poultry association
which carries with it representation
from the state association. The lat
