ALL PRAISE TO MARMALADE
Remarkably Capable Woman Satisfied
She Owed Her Position to That
Sweet Dish.

Two women-Queen Maud of Nor
way and Queen Alexandra of England
are geographically commemorated in
the new south polar region SO lately
placed upon the map. Like honors
were accorded several women in the
far north many years ago. Lady
Franklin bay, named after the heroic
wife of Sir John Franklin, is well
known through its association with the
tragic story Of the Lady Franklin
Bay Expedition" under General
Greedy, thirty years ago.
Another distinguished woman, Lady
Franklin's friend, Mary Somerville. the
Famous astronomer and mathemati-
clan, gave her name to a tiny, frozen,
desolate dot In the Arctic seas. The
daughter of fine old fighting admiral,
Mrs. Somerville was always keenly in
terested In ships, sailors and explora-
tions. So when her friend, Sir Edward
Parry, was preparing for his third
arctic voyage, she laid in large sup
ply OF oranges, betook herself to her
kitchen. and made an amazing number
OF Jars of delicious orange marina
lade, which she sent to him as her
contribution to the ships stores.
Three years later. when the expedi-
ton returned, Sir Edward informed
her that an island had been named In
her honor.
Because Of fame and friendship, he
says" she wrote, merrily. But be-
lieve In my heart because of some
thing quite different-less sweet than
friendship. perhaps, but certainly, as a
woman's achievement, preferred by
most men to fame. My mathematics
no! my marmalade!"
II she did not so far outrank the
rest Of her sex in marmalade as in
mathematics. Mary Somerville was
none the less very capable house
wife. She was an economical man.
ager, an exquisite needle-woman, and
an excellent cook. AS young bride,
she won the appreciation of Doctor
Somerville's family, who shared the
contemporary prejudice against learn
ed ladies, by making, under the grave
difficulties presented by an ill-equip-
ed, ramshackle country inn, the clear
and delicious currant jelly that the
fancy of a sick traveller craved.

her journal, the astonishment ex-

varieties of corn differ as widely as
the shape and form of the different
pure breeds of cattle. Each class and
variety has characteristic shape pc
culiar to itself. The most desirably
shaped ear is cylindrical from butt to
tip. Where ears are inclined to taper,
1t will be noticed that two or four
rows, as rule, are dropped near the
middle Of the ear. In judging the
corn ear, take into consideration the
soil and climatic conditions in which
the corn is grown. The shape Of
desirable ear for southern or central
Illinois would differ in many respects
from the most desirable ears for
northern Wisconsin. The shorter
growing season in the north demands
shallower kernel and smaller ear
to enable the corn to mature.
