Youghai, County Cork, Ireland.
Mr.. Lahiff came into prominence in

achievements as newspaper man
was the securing of an interview from
William Ewart Gladstone, who up to
this time had never been interviewed
in his life.
Mr.. Lahiff broke down the pre-
mier's reserve, was invited to take tea
with the statesman and came away
not only with famous interview but
with a note penned by Mr.. Gladstone
.vouching for the authenticity of the
interview. The story was printed in
nearly every newspaper in the world.
Mr.. Lahiff next distinguished him.

1902. He hired out as a supposed

vention Of industrial accidents and
the saving Of money thereby, Mr..

1.-The commission in its three years
of experience has met with success
far beyond expectations. It has treat
ed the whole matter strictly as a

During the year prior to the pas
sage of the compensation act 100000
was paid out on account of personal
injury cases. OF this amount the in
jured workmen received only $780,
900. 1t actually cost $45o,o00 to
carry $4,000 to the men who were
not hurt-lawyers, claim agents, ad-

received three times as much Of the
cost Of accidents as the men who were
hurt. :. :
ITO compare the old system with
the new we have in 1910 cost of
$450.00o to carry $150,oo0 to the in
jured workmen; in 1914 the injured
workrnen will receive 100000 and

Makes Good Coffee

q think Mrs. M. c. R., who writes to the Corner should have the barrel she mentions instead of sending it to Mrs A
 T. If she will buy a Accent coffee she will find it will make three times as much of better coffee than she now gets out of her 20-cent blend And if she has never used a better blend she will real ize that she never tasted coffee before. use a percolator and thre tablespoons of a 40-cent coffee, which makes six cups of rich, strong coffee. I seldom use more than two tablespoons to make coffee for three persons. Sometimes we take two cups each sometimes not never throw any away After breakfast I pour off what Is left, put little more fresh water in the pot, boil up a few minutes, get ting all the strength out of it. Then I throw away the grounds. This I use the next morning. and the more good coffee there is left the less ground coffee I put in A sprinkle of salt on the ground cof- fee before adding the water improves the flavor. MRS. J. D. R."
 Please note a letter signed Mrs Amelia S. This method of making coffee ap- peals to the writer as being more or less dangerous, particularly if left standing jvcr night in an enameled pot. Where iron is exposed to the acids contained in coffee this feature can easily be proven by taking the ohaff from a pound of cof- fee and let it stand over night in a small quantity of water in an iron pot a good quality of ink will result.

The glory of yesterdays sunshine put every body in a good humor, and from the breakfast hour on through the day the clubs of the city and the hotels, where the visitors are, presented a continued scene of gaiety.
 Madame Gadski Madame Ober, Caruso, Scotti Gilly, Madame Amato, Miss Case and Segurola were among the first to greet before noon, and appearing on the porch of the Georgian Terrace they were the center of admiring friends.
 Thomas Dixcey. Jr., age years, son of MT. and Mrs. Thomas Dfxcey of New York, was among the first to greet the stars, whom he had been told about. He was introduced to them, accepted the honor with mature courtesy, and made no comment till he met Segurola, who ad- justed his monocle, and receiving the younger gentleman with much dignity. Thomas looked up into the face of the great singer inquiringly, and then said, ympathetically:
 ''Too bad-you have lost one of your glasses

Suggests Singing as Cure

T note Mrs. F. J. inquires for a cure for suffering. l have personally known of several being cured, my brother among the number. When about years of age he acquired the habit and was troubled for several years. A singing master ap- peared and suggested a cure. By singing, he said, he had cured many children that had been badly afflicted. He advised the mothers to get the patient to sing when ever he had to talk Ca singer never stut- ters or stammers), and my brother was cured in one years time. l would suggest that Mrs. F. J. add this to the good ad- vice given in the Corner, and 1 feel sure that her daughter will be cured If it does. no good it surely can do no harm, and is without price.

 No" said MT. Colmant, that style is confined largely to massive estates and is used more abroad by the Italian and English people than any other class. Of course in the east some of the handsom- est country estates still carry out thiS idea, but in the south the tendency is more toward simplicity and home-lik environment and comfort rather than ponderous, luxurious surroungings"
 'The Italians" continued MT. Colmant, are the greatest garden-makers that the world has ever known, with the English as a close second, and when the English people began in earnest with their land scaping and garden making it assumed a national character The formal gardens of England, like those of Chatsworth Wilton House and Kew, are known the world over, and are taken as models in many instances, being reproduced on a smaller scale. The French gardens of Versailles and Fontainaebleu could not be reproduced anywhere else because of climatic conditions. Shrubbery does not grow in America as it does in England anu III Y rance, ana consequently the very formal appearance of the English and French gardens in America is an impos- sibilty.'
