MISS BRITTON MAY WE'D
DIPLOMAT TOMORROW
Washington Rumor Sets Day for
Marriage to Austrian
Attache

WASHINGTON, Dec. l3-There ls every
Indication that rumors as to the approach
ing marriage OF Miss Katherine Brltton'
daughter OF htr. and Mrs. Alexander Brit
ton OF Washington, and Prince Altfed 4u
Hohenlohe- hillngsfurst. attached to the
Austrian Embassy here, are about to pc
fulfilled. II ls probable that before the end
OF the week possibly on Thursday, the
htth international match Involving "aHh-
irgton girls since the hrst OF october VIII
be an accomplished fact
The story OF the engagement OF MlHs
Brltton and the Austrian diplomat was hrst
circulated early last spring when she was
abroad with Miss Mona McAdoo, daughter
OF the Secretary OF the Treasury. uoihs
hospital work AZ that time the brlttohs
had nothing to say. but Miss Brlttohs lh''-
mates were expecting the announcement OF
the engagement. which was not then made
II was understood that Prince Hohenlohe
family were strongly opposed to MS marry
Ing an American, and persuaded the oln
Emperor, who was their distant hlhsnah'
To withhold his consent.
Just lately the story has been revived,
Miss Britton's friends have been confident
that the marriage was about TO take pace
They had even set December ~ as the
date. The BTittons still had nothing 10
say. The wedding did not take place on
that date: but the conviction ~ growing
that there is something brewing ana thRt
IL will take place within few days
Mrs Brltton remains as uncommunicatlVe
as she has been previously Miss Katherine
Brltton, however, relents a bit She has
nothing to say today tomorrow possibly
And II Is learned that divers tradesmen'
caterers. florists and photographers nave
pressing and important engagements at the
Brltton residence on . street on Thursday
The explanation seems TO be that the
consent which the old Austrian Emperor
refused the young one, being democratic
ally inclined. and being OF an age 70 nave
a fellow feeling for lovers Is granting And
IL turns out that Prince Hohenlohe who
has been carried on the diplomatic list as
absent" for several months, and was sup
posed TO be with his regiment somewhere
in Europe in the trenches has really been
on a mission to California and by no means
out OF reach II wedding was contemplattd.

Flour Mills a Coming Community
Necessity.

Farm & Ranch, Dallas, Texas.
Since the cost of living has advanc-
ed so rapidly there is need for famers
as we'll as laborers and salaried men
in cities to reduce expenses when
this does not interfere with the eff
cheney OF the foods. To do this every
housekeeper should study foods at
every opportunity till they under
stand the nutritiye values OF com
mon foods.
One way to make it convenient to
get breadstuff of better quality and
get it cheaply is to encourage the
custom mil. A good grist mill
should be located III every communi-
ty. II possible there should be roll
er mill ia every small town where
wheat Is raised in the surrounding
country. This gives farmers who
raise wheat and corn a chance to
have their grain ground, thus encour-
aging ecenomv and thrift.

Guard jealousy Against Fire.

Southern Agriculturist.
Every farmer, we believe, should
carry fire insurance on his buildings,
but be should not stop there. He
should use every care to guard
against ire. Before cola weather
comes every stove pipe. hue, chin
ney and fireplace should be examined
TO see that it is safe. Matches
should be kept out oil reach OF chill
dren and rats. Open lights should
be KEEP. out of the barn and smoking
there strictly forbidden all persons.
Gasoline should be stored away from
buildings. Screens should be pro-
vided for open freplaces where chill
dren stay or where sparks are likely
to fly out. A bucket of water should
be kept handy if there is no water
supply. and one or two chemical fire
extinguishers purchased and hung
up convenient for use.
A little precaution is better than a
big fire.
