ARCHDUCHEss ELIZABETH.

This is the thirty-second birthday of the Archduchess Elizabeth, grand daughter of Emperor Francis Joseph, and the only child of the Austrian Emperor's only son, Grown Prince Rudolf, whose life ended in a tragedy the mystery of which prob ably never will be solved. The mother of the Archduchess, Princess Stephanie of Belgium, was forced to 5cave Vienna after the death of her husband, and later married Count Ee1ener LonyayN The Archduchess Elizabeth was married some 8 years ttgO to Prince Otto Windisch Graetz. Her father, Grown Prince Rudolf, was a youth of considerable talent, but of wild incIinations. His marriage with the daughter of Leopold of Bel gium was a purely political arrange ment, and the couple disagreed from the first. Stephanie was of a Jealous disposition, and the attentions which Rudolf paid to other women resulted in frequent violent scenes. In this instance family history was repeating itself, for Francis Joseph and his spouse, Elizabeth of Bavaria, led to quarre1some life, winch led to a com pIete separation for many years. Ru- do1f was desperately in love with the beautiful Marie Vetsera, and in 1899 they were found dead together in a bIood-spattered room in the imperial hunting lodge at Meyerling. It was said that they had committed suicide, and this view of the tragedy has been generally accepted in Austria was to the effect that the Archduke had kill ed his mistress, while in 8 drunken rage, and was himself beaten to death by his infuriated guests Rudolf's s daughter, the Archduchess Elizabeth, was reared at the imperial court in Vienna, under the personal direction of the Emperor. His favorite grand daughter, however, was another Archduchess Elizabeth, daughter of Gise1a, the Emperor's oldest daughter. She eloped with a young army officer she had seen only twice before, while her sister, Louise of Tuscany, was guilty of even more shocking indis- cretions.

-J-lo1Hing: am a widOWer with q son of 24- My boy has good heart but IS wild, through going with a fast set Of young fellows. Our home is so lonely. I have been contemplating marrying again. In fact, I have almost. proposed to a lady. My son is wrathy over the matter, declaring he will make it un- bearab1e for any woman who will have the temerity to enter his dead mothers $ home to rule therein. The lady ex- poets me to ask her to marry me. My son is making it decidedly unpleasant What would you advise?
 Affection for your son should not blind you to the fact that you owe a duty to yourself. When your boy sees a girl whom his heart goes out to he would be apt to follow the dictates of his heart and wed her, despite a veritab1e hurricane of parental dis approval Marry the lady. By pa tience, sweetness and womanly tact she can soon overcome his objections. She can make the old home so attrac- tive that she will be able to exert a great influence for good over him. Home is not a real home without a wife in it.

LACK OF LOGIC OF
 PROHIBTTYONIST ENTERTAINS READER OF TRACT

(From St. Paul, Minn., Dispatch.)
 To the Editor of The Dispatch:
 The other day a well-meaning friend handed me an anti-liquor tract entitled '"The Two Crowns" As a i lack-logic prohibition. slzit it is a, gem. Its theme is the marriage of Adolphus l Busch, wherein he presents his wife with a golden crown said to have cost $10O,0O0. Among the presents were those from ex-Presidents Taft and
 Roosevelt.
 The rest of. the tract is a shriek.
 What has the brewers wife done, more than poorer women, to deserve a. crown? rasps the writer. Answer: For one thing she has shown superior Judgment to theirs by picking out a better 'provider.''
 He quotes prison warden to the | effect that from 75 to 80 per cent. en- ter the pen on account of the saloon. Not one per cent dol If these office holders would judge their inmates with minds open to sociological truths instead of with an eye to their own political standing, they would find
 that defective percentage, bad rearing sand miserable home environments
 are the factors which forced the de- linquents behind prison bars. Not only has the saloon never put a per son in the pen, but it has never sent one to the insane asylum, as the writer asserts. The above factors,
 plus OOmGSC1c, aHoCClOnaI ana man cial troubles. sent them there. Truly
 many will miss the saloon should it be abolished; it is the ever handy scape- goat.
 Alcoholics responsible for nearly all of poverty walls on the writer. Nonsense! Turkey. the only anti liquor land in Europe, has been al- coho1-free for over a miIenneium and is the most poverty-stricken, ignorant and degerenate national in the world.
 The tenor of the whole scurriIous screed is to show that the brewer and disti1ler are at fault for the crime and vice of the country, instead of the criminals and vicious themselves. Simple decency should prompt the perception that Brewer Busch is no more to blame for the misery entail
 ed by the excessive intake of alcoholic
 drinks than is any wholesale grocer
 in this town for the hell of dyspepsia
 entaiIed by the injudicious or excess
 i've consumption of his groceries. However, his paisied reason and atrophied sense of justice will not al- low the prohibitionist to see that the dyspeptic and debauchee are to
 blame, and not the vendors of the nnisused wares

INTERNATIONAL EGG
 LAYING CONTEST

The laying contest at Storrs now has only nine weeks to go In spite of the fact that the end of the year is so near at hand it is as yet impossi- ble to predict the winner. The first five pens are within thirty-two eggs of each other or less than a weeks lay for any of them. During the past week the Vermont pen of Rhode Island Reds moved from sixth place up to third and a Connecticut pen of Legh or1ls from Bedding Ridge moved from fifth place to fourth
 All pens taken together produced 335S eggs in the forty-third week. Tom Barron's pen of English Leghorns won first honors for the period with 53 eggs to their credit. P. G. Platt s birds from Wallingford, Pa, were a close second with a production of 52 during the week while four pens, namely: the Storrs Stations sour milk pen of White Wyandottes, also their sour milk pen of White Leg horns, pr. N. w. Sanborn's Buff Wy andottes from Holden, Mass. and Hillview Poultry Farms Rhode Island Reds from St. AIbans. Vt, all tied for third place with 50 eggs each.
 Rhode Island Red hen, No. 395 in pen 40 owned by S. G. Mclean, South Glastonb bury, performed a most ex- traorlinary feat during the week. The records of the laying contest seem to indicate that on an average one may expect to get two eggs a day from a hen once for about each 2O,- 900 eggs collected. Furthermore when this sort of thing happens it has been believed for the most part that the hen always laid one Of the eggs very early in the morning and the other along towards evening. The Rhode Island Red in question, how ever, violated all preceden by lay ing the two eggs, both of marketable size. with practically no intermission. Not only this but the trick was turn ed while an attendant was in the pen and an eye witness to the most un- usual performance.
 The ten leading pens to date are as follows:

HER FRIENDS BEAU.

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 I am young woman of 26. My cir >curnstances are such that I an@> not obliged to work for a living. I have @ woman friend employed in a business office. She has a lover to whom she is Joking forward to. being married. I called on her and her beau saw me home. It was a mutual case of love at first sight between us. Now what should we do?
 H. c. & BEN. It is dishonorable to encourage your friends beau to make love to you. Dis miss him at once, refusing to see him again. A man of his stamp is capable of breaking many foolish women'S hearts ere he reaches the. end of his rope. Be a friend to the other woman in fact, not in name only.

A BAsHFUL YOUNG MAN

Dear Miss LIbbey:-
 am a young man troubled by being exceedingly bashfuI. T. have met a young lady, yet, after being intro duced, I cannot get acquainted with her. think if I were to be-, nore in her society she would care for me. While walking with lady how should you offer her your arm? If you turn a corner and the girl is on the outside should you change sides?~~ I would like very much for you to tell me how to be attractive to young ladies.
 Bashfulness can readily be overcome by mixing as much as possible in the society of not only those of your age but older people as well. Make no strenuous effort to lead the conversa- tion. Being an intelligent listener is half of the battle. Those who do the talking are sure to be entertained and imagine you a most enjoyable com panion. It is proper to say: 'Will you take my arrn?" It is equally permis- sible to offer it silently. Place the lady upon the inside of the walk while accom- mpanying her on the street, never upon the outside. If you are pleasant and not given to foolish rambling con- versation or dattery, straightforward and manly, you may be sure you will win the favor of nice girls whose good opinion and society are worth cu1tivat- ing. It is far more to your credit to% be considered nice, modest young man than a bold one.

TODAY'S POEM
..THE RAIN UPON THE ROOF"

When hurried shadows gather
 Over all the starry darkness, And the melancholy darkness
 Weenss itself in rainy tears. Iris joy to press the pillow
 Of some cottage chamber bed, And to1 isten to the batter
 Of the rain drops overhead. Every tihkle,=on the shingis "f
 Wakes an echo in the heart, And a thousand dreamy fanciea
 Into busy being start. And a thousand recollecttons
 Weave their bright hues into woOfs As listen to the batter
 Of the rain upon the roof. Now in fancy comes my mother, As she 7used to years ag6h6. To survey her darling dreamers.
 Ere she left them till the morn; And see her bending OCT me
 As I list to the refrain That is played upon the shingles.
 By the batter of the rain. And my little Seraph sister,
 With her wings and waving hair And her blue-eyed cherub brother
 A serene, angelic pair, Glide around my wakeful pillow,
 With their praise or mild reproofs As\I listen to the batter
 Of the rain upon the roof. Then another comes to cheer me
 With her eyes delicious blue, And forget I. gazing on her.
 That her heart was all untrue. remember but to love her,
 With a joy that's kin to pain, And my hearts deep pulses
 Vibrate to the batter of the rain.

A BROCK FOR JUNIORS AND GIRLS.

A very excellent model for making a dressy looking frock for practical pur. poses is shown here. There<is a rniddy blouse, which almost loses its identity however behind the poclxeted belt and Quaker collar. Accompanying this is a one piece pleated skirt with a box pfeat~ at the center back and center front The skirt is attached to an un- derbody with high or open neck, pref erence being given to the latter.
 For a girl of eight years the materials required are yards 44-inch serge with R yard lining 27 inches wide for the underbody and F yard organdy for the Quaker collar. A collar of serge how ever. stitched with red or blue silk braid, is also becoming.
 In cutting out the dress it will be found that the cuff, underbody front and back are omitted in the cutting guide, but these parts are provided in, the pattern and small "o' perforations indicate the open neck in case it is preferred to the high effect.
 The skirt sections are laid on 1engthwfse fold of the material, and the piecings are sandwiched between the main skirt sections on a lengthwise thread of the serge. Upon the re- maindert Of the material the collars, lap and back are first arranged, right along the 1engthwise fold of goods. The pocket, the front and the sleeves are placed on lengthwise thread, while the belt is cut from the strip between the selvage and the back and sleeve, beginning at the right of the front.
 The under back front and back can be arranged on the lining, just as are the front and back sections of the niddy, so that no difficulty will be met in cut ting them.
 If plain cuffs are not desired with the sleeves the elbow sleeve may be sub stituted and finished with shaped, turn back cuffs, trimmed with fancy buttons.
