MoNRoVIA NOT UGLY CITY
Unprosperous and "Shiftless," But Still
In Many Ways Place of Attrac-
ton for the Tourist.

The one word that describes Monro-
via is "shiftless." Here came the for
mer negro slave in the early eighties,
backed by philanthropists who wanted
to see him given chance in his own
country. And here is the former ne
gro slave today, 'dling away his life
in the tropical luxuriance of the jun
gle, which feeds him without cultiva-
ton, and watching his one big chance
fall to ruins.
After ali, the negro can hardly be
blamed if he fails in task that has
tried the nerves of white men. COlOniz-
ing Liberia has not been all delight
full experience. There are still many
lions, leopards, and snakes in the
jungle, which make road-building a
dangerous occupation, and occasionally
the interior tribes of negroes get OBJ
streperous and eat a couple Of their
civilized brethren.
MonrOvia Is pitiful, but not ugly.
Over all its shabbiness and decay grow
the scarlet hibiscus, pink Oleanders
and other tropical flowers, decorating
with their brilliant blossoms the corpse
Of fine ideal.

Mangrove trees are to me the most
fascinating of all the vegetable
grOwths of our strange planet. When
young, as we thus first came upon
them, at the opening of the creek,
there is something tender and idylic
about them, with the fresh, childlike,
laureline leaves and dangling rods of
emerald that were really the suckers
of their banianlike roots; but, as we
proceeded inland they grew into an
absence and bizarre maturity, like
nightmares striding out in every direc-
tion, with prancing, skeleton feet
planted in noisome, fostering sWamps,
and stretching out horned, clawing
hands that seemed to take root as one
looked and threw out other roots OF
horror like a dream.-Richard LIE Gal
lienne, in Harper's Magazine.

Rare Christmas Gift.

A mother was out doing Christmas
shopping, and with her was her four
year-old boy. Leaving their automo-
bile, they passed along the busy street
and gazed into the well-filled shop
windows. At the display OF fancy ar
ticles in the dry goods stores the child
beamed interestedly. At tie array of
toys in other windows his eyes fairly
danced.
Presently they came to a window in
which eggs and like commodities were
on view. AS the child's parents were
enthusiastic and consistent over the
prevalent egg-boycott, hen fruit had
been scarce in the household. The lit
tie lad jumped for joy at the sight
of the hen products.
"Oh, mother" he exclaimed, excited
ly, "There's what really want for my
Christmas-some eggs"

MistIetoe.

In ancient times garlands and bou-
Quets of the mistletoe were hung in
taverns and doorways to ward off evil,
and by many worn as an amulet at
tracing good influences. This aver
sion doubtless sprang from Christian
prejudice against plant deemed sa-
cred by the pagans, legend of the
monks holding that the mistletoe bough
was cursed and never again permitted
to grow as an independent growth,
since it had been the tree from which
was fashioned the cross of the cru
cifxion. In the West of England mis-
tletoe is not allowed to enter into
church decorations.

Sang in Many Countries.

The air of "God Save the King" and
"Heil Dir i'm Sieger Kranz" also fig
ured in the national or patriotic songs
of many other countries. IN the Unit
ed States it was adopted by Samuel
S. Smith for his famous song, begin
ming "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" This
was first sung in Boston in 1882, and
has often been called the national an
them of the republic, although that
honor is now more generally accorded
to "The Star Spangled Banner"
In Bavaria the same air is used to
"Heil unserm Konig, He'll" In Switz-
erland it becomes "Rufst du, mein
Vaterland." 1t is sung with other
words in Denmark, Norway and a
number Of the German states, includ-
ing, besides Prussia and Bavaria, the
kingdoms of Saxony and Wuerttem-
berg, and in Brunswick, Weimar and
Hanover.

HOW TO TREAT CONCLUSIONS
Hot Bath the First Thing to Be Ad-
mlnistered to Child Who Suffers
From That Complaint.

When a baby has convulsiOns, 1t gen.
orally means one of two things; either
II is suffering from toxaemia, or pOis-
Oning, which is usually the result Of
errors in the diet, or else there is some
serious trouble with the nervous sys-
tenn. If feeding is at the bottom of the
trouble, find out the error and correct
it, and the attacks will cease. When
there is organic trouble present, the
case is more serious. The attack may
be stopped, but it is likely to recur If
the underlying cause persists. Such
are the commissions caused by menin-
gifts, or acute inflammation of the
brain coverings. and by hydrocephalus,
or water pressing on the brain.
1t is unnecessary to describe the
symptoms, for the most inexperienced
person knows when a baby is having
IL COnvulsion. In older people ten
dency to commissions indicates an un-
stable nervous system, and that is
probably true of infants who have con-
vulsiOns in consequence Of dietary err
rors that would leave stronger chill
drep unaffected. Children who have
commissions in their first year often
suffer from night terrors, tics, and 9th
er signs of nervous instability later in
life. Sometimes commissions are the
first signs of an epilepsy that is to
appear in after years.
The first thing to do when a baby
falls into a cOnvulsiOn is to get it
into a warm bath as quickly as pos
sible. That is done to relieve blood
tension and equalize the circulation,
and to this end it is well to give cold
applications to the head at the same
time.
Do not hesitate to give the hot bath.
Sometimes inexperienced people who
dread to make q mistake insist on
waiting until the doctor comes. But
the hot bath for baby in convulsiOns
can never be a mistake. The doctor
should be called without delay, be-
cause in severe cases the bath must
be followed by sedative and reliev-
ing treatment that he only will know
how to employ. There is one import
ant don't" to remember-don't put
anything into the child's mouth-either
food, medicine or stimulant-while
you are waiting for the DOCTOR
Youths Companion.

II 1t is not Overdone will not offend the
most fastidious
Onion Soup.-To four good-sized
onions chopped very fine, add two thin
slices of bacon, cut in small bits. Let
this cook until the onions are soft and
the bacon brown. Add two cupfuls Of
cold water and let 1t come to a boil.
Mash the onion with a large spoon; do
not pour off the water, but add one and
half cupfuls of rich milk; season
well with salt and pepper and table
spoonful of butter. When eggs are
plentiful beat up an egg and pour the
soup over it just at the time of serv-
ing. Flour and butter cooked togeth-
er, using a tablespoonful of each, will
make a sufficient binding. Serve with
out Straining.
Fried AppIes.-Core nice firm apples,
cut them into slices, half an inch thick,
dust lightly with sugar and cinnamon,
roll them in flour and cook in little
hot suet; when brown on one side, turn
on the other. Dish with the slices
overlapping and serve with chops.
Consome RoyaI.-Take knuckle of
veal and three pounds of shin of
beef; cut the meat from the bones,
crack the bones. Put two tablespoon
fuls of sugar and one sliced onion, over
the fire, cook until brown; add the
bones, meat and six quarts Of water !;
cook at a simmering temperature for
three hours, then add one carrot, one
turnip, one onion, half cupful of Gel
cry tops, all chopped; six cloves, two
bay leaves and bit of red pepper.
Cook one hour longer, and strain.
Huntington Salad.-Cut pared ap-
pies into balls with French vegetable
cutter lay them in French dressing
to season. Just before serving roll
in salad dressing and chopped nuts
and with toothpick insert a small
strip Of green pepper or stem Of
parsley for a stem in each.
Onion Baked in Their Skins-Place
the onions unpeeled in baking dish
with little water and bake until ten
der, then peel and cut open. Served
with butter, pepper and salt they are
delicious.
