SCIENCE OF HOTEL KEEPING
swiss Youth May BE Said to Have
Revolutionized Methods OF the
European hosteiries.

Like many another mighty enter
prise the Ritz-Carlton hotels had q
modest beginning. and the whole idea
had its origination in the brain of a
Swiss farmer boy. Cesar Ritz, whose
father titled small holding. The son,
however. had larger ideas. Taking up
hotel work at the beginning in a very
minor capacity. he developed a most
wonderful sense of color, form and
taste in every respect, and he brought
the art of hotel keeping in Europe to a
higher pitch than it had ever been be-
fore. Indeed he revolutionized hotel
keeping in England and France, and
that revolution has gradually shown
its influence all over the world. Ritz's
first enterprise was the Ritz hotel In
Paris, which he started about 1897.
The second venture was the Carlton
hotel OF London, and the next was
the Ritz OF London. In each OF the
many Ritz hotels already built, build
ing. or planned for there is separ-
ate local company which has furnish.
ed the bulk or the whole OF the money,
while the central organization. the
Carlton Investing company, in all
cases holds the common stock and a
controlling interest. In this way all
the local companies are made to work
unitedly and in the interest of all.

the loveliest of mugs. cups. porridge

fine china hand-painted with flowers

Sun Too Strono for Crops.

Do the crops get too much light In
hot. sunny weather? asks a writer in
Farm and Fireside. Tests made in
Louisiana show that potatoes, cotton.
lettuce and radishes made better
growth In that climate when the sun
light was cut down by from one-ha!f
to a great deal more than one-half.
When the light was cut down to one
fifteenth OF normal, none OF the plants
we're found to be able to grow. Corn
grew better In full sunlight than when
partially shaded. These experiments
suggest ideas to growers of vegetables
and flowers In the use of cheap cheese
cloth or muslin sun-shades for the
plants. They should remember. how.
ever, that only is true which works.

REGULATOR or, LONDON TIME
Woman Implicitly Trusted to Keep
Tlmepieces Of Great City Correct

Women are sometimes accused Of
not being on time. 30 it may be sur

London's champion timekeeper is a
woman. Miss Anita Belleville has an

Of the most perfect in the world and q
triumph Of the watchmaker's skill she
calls at the Greenwich observatory
once q week and checks her instru-
ment by that official time, then carries
1t around to her clients. A great many
OF her clients are watchmakers, who
find her chronometer able to make
finer distinctions than any other In
strument known. Miss Belleville Ii
found to be much more exact than the
electric clocks that are set from q
central station. When tested few
days ago at the observatory. her chro-
nometer was found to have varied only
one-tenth of q second during whole

This instrument has been carried all
over London, but Ia apparently little
affected by travelling on train, bus and
electric tram, for 1t has never deviated
more than so seconds from Greenwich
time In q week.
Miss Belleville has inherited her
unique occupation. Her father, Henry
BellevilIe, got permission from the as
tronomer royal about half a century
ago to take the correct time from the
observatory. where he was employed
by chroDometer makers. After his
death his wife carried on the business.
and now his daughter is keeping up
the work by bringing the time to
watchmakers all over London.
