Louisa Unique was a sister of
Frederick the Great of Prussia and
so greatly did he esteem the intellec-
tual endowments and personality of
this sister that for many years he
opposed any marriage that was sug
gested for her, insisting that he need
ed her at his own court. Finally,
however, he consented to her mar
riage with Adolphus Frederick who
became, when Louisa was 81, king of
Sweden She was somewhat over
bearing, it is said, and never forgot
that she was sister and wife of kings,
but she was a great patron of arts
and letters in Sweden. 1t was through
her influence that Linnalus, the great
botanist, was able to develop and
publish his botanical works.

We'd rather look on the bright, SIDE

good cheer into the sorriest sllua-

question seriously the wisdom Oh

-e.nembered or aforementioned, the

desired. He gets his sunshine here
and now and whatever happiness he
may find elsewhere is so much vel

But to achieve optimism you've got
to more than cultivate cheerful
view OF tnlnBS. Inc cneerluiesl ou'-

of very inspiring materialistic

she completed her education and then
for eleven years served on the edi-
torial staff of the Boston Congrega-

came a missionary and located first
in Bulgaria. From there she went to

in this country. in 1901, that her ia

She and the wife of a native minister
were seized by Macedonian brigands
while on a mountain road and held
at a ransom of over one hundred
thousand dollars. over half of this
sum was finally raised by public sub
scription in this country and the
captlves were released after six
months of captivity.

One afternoon Mr.. Hebard told me
something of his own Investigations
into the history of that marvelously
rich portion of the State of Michigan
which is known as the upper PENN
sula and which is bounded on the
north by Lake Superior. As Mr.. He
bard was for some years one of the
trustees of the Michigan State Uni
versity at Ann Arbor, he was in po-
sition to fortify the information he
had CLEANED from old inhabitants of
that weird and wonderfully rich Sec
ton of the country.
81 suppose" said Mr.. Hebard, that
it cannot be authoritatively denied
that this little upper peninsula of
Michigan has proved to be in pro-
portion to it's area the richest and
the most marvelously rich little re-
gion in the entire United States, and
| do not except some of the gold
fields.
Eyes there was a time when no
body wanted this land. ] have met
a man who when he was a young
man could have bought a good deal
of this upper peninsula for few
thousand dollars. l presume he
would not have ventured the specula-
ton even IL he had had the money
yet If he had bought it and kept II
he would have been by this time
probably the richest man in the
United States.
This section was regarded as
worthless-a wild tract with plenty OF
timber-but the cost of transporta-
| ton and of numbering made that tim
Der practically worthless. | was once
told by one of the early citizens OF
Michigan that the United States had
actually bribed the State of Michi-

II made some inquiries and / found
| the statement was correct. Michigan

about the southern boundary. Michi-
gan wanted to take in all the terri
| tory north of the line running from
the southernmost point OF Lake
! Michigan to Lake Erie. That would

On the Spur Of
the Moment
THE DIARY or A BoNEnEAD
BY ROY MoULToN.
Written Exclusively for Evening star.

THE DIARY OF A BONEHEAD
My wife's cousin and her husband
and nine children spent six weeks
with us in the city last winter and
enjoyed with us the high cost of
living to the extent that wife's
jewelry had to go down TO the old
unele's for a spell and we placed a.
first mortgage on our horseiess.
piano.
When they parted from US tear
fully at the end of their visit they
said in that delightfully."- vague way
so often employed by relatives. you
must run down to the old farm and
see us for a day or so some fine sum-
mer"
Although the invitation was so in
definite that it sounded like a poll
tician's ante-campaign promise, or
woman's vow to "obey'' in the mar
riage contract, we decided to take
advantage of it this summer.
After selling our cook stove to
buy sufficient gasoline, we motored
down to the old farm. That was
yesterday. We expected to stay six
weeks. We got back tonight.
Never again.
We like our fiat in the city
pretty we'll, where it never gets
above 100 in the shade. and the next
time we want to take a little ex-
cursion in unhappiness or little
fller in misery we are going to start
| for Panama In the middle of July
and loaf around the equator with the
pellagra bug and the yellow fever
mike.
Our relatives had sixteen summer
boarders who were trying to win
back their faded health by living on
canned vegetables and dried herring.
The name of the old farm is now
pleasant View" which is rather
remarkable thing in itself. inasmuch
as there is no view at all and very
little that is pleasant The rates
are SO a day.
My wifes cousins husband Is a
great business man. All of the rooms
were rented and had to sleep in a
tent on a cot which closed up like
jaclkknife about every twenty min
utes and removed a porterhouse
steak from my anatomy. The wife
and kids slept in the eorncrib, which
was light and well ventilated.
The people who are paying for it
seem to be having a good time prob
ably because they are rich and don't
know any better It certainly is
tough to be poor and discriminating,
but that is our fix and one night. set
tied our desire for country life.
We found later that our cousins
husband gets all of his milk and
farm produce from the city every
other Friday early in the morning be-
fore any of the boarders are awake.
1t is risky enough to accept invi-
tations from friends without rush
ing in where angels fear TO tread and
accepting them from relatives.

Women should take time to analyze
their shortcomings, when the stars re-
veal them in the light which todays
influences sheds upon them. While
they may feel disbursement they
have great opportunity to discover
their weaknesses and improve their
minds. 1t is held that the feminist
movement is to make great demands
upon them within the year. There Is
also a prophecy that few will attain
fame suddenly.
A demonstration of surprising
changes in theatrical matters, begin

promise of return to higher stand

of abuses in public institutions will

hitherto attempted. The planets are

"Ohio wouldn't listen to the propo-
sition and at last the government at
Washington was appealed to, and the
government was very much embar-
rassed Finally the government pro-
posed to Michigan that II she would
give up to Ohio her claim for a strip
along the southern shore of Lake
Erie the government would cede to
Michigan what was known as the
upper peninsula.
"Well, do you know that propo-
sition was objected to at first, but at
last Michigan reluctantly consented,
not caring much for the desolate and
wild upper peninsula.
1.-THE lumber alone on this upper
peninsula has been of a money value
of hundreds of millions of dollars.
The stumpage, which is the land re-
naming after the trees hove been cut
down, has been cultivated to great
profit, especially in potato farming.
"Then there was the opening of the
extraordinarily rich iron mines, the
value of which is inconceivably great
and the existence of which was
scarcely known when the upper pen
insula became a part of the State OF
Michigan.
"Then there came along some ex-
perts from Boston, think the son
Of Professor Agassiz was among
them.-and they discovered the out
groupings Of the copper veins on that
little peninsula, which you see just
across the bay. Hundreds of million;
of dollars worth of copper have beer
and will be taken out of these mines
for they are now regarded as among
| the richest of the world.
Lumber. iron and copper have
| yielded in this once despised upper
peninsula material wealth within thu
past fifty years, which l was goinl
to say aggregated thousand million
dollars, and yet the upper peninsula
was once despised as worthless"

HOROSCOPE.
THURSDAY, JULY "a. 1913.
To many n name
The stars bring fame.

Changeable influences rule today,
astrologers declare, and it is wise for
mortals to be cautious in their deal
ings.
1t is not an suspicious time for any
sort of speculation. Losses will be
sutained by brokers and real estate
dealers, unless they are exceedingly
cautious.
Jupiter and Mars are both in un-
friendly aspect, while early in the
morning Uranus smiles. The Moon
in Aries gives promise of kindly aid.
The seers interpret conditions as
unfavorable for scholars, lawyers,
judges and the clergy. There are in
dications of severe controversies on
subjects that arouse antagonisms.
Lecturers and public speakers are
