N home-riursing. domestic science and
kindergarten training.
My training rs kindergarten
taught me many things, among thea
keeping strictly to n schedule :, so my
baby was fed, bathed and put to bed
regularly. Habit Is formed early in
life, ind can help to make or mar
character, depending on whether .hab-
It's are good or bad. This carrying out
OF regular schedule was not al
ways easy, for II meant sacrifice Of
many pleasures. But wanted to be
i good mother first OF all. and / was
rewarded by having happy. good
baby. Even now ut six years old
there is no fuss at nap time or bed
time. One of the things taught un-
consciously In the kindergarten is reg
Ilnrity and promptness. and these can
De taught In the home just.as well.
Long before baby could talk she

TO RESTORE MONARCHY.
PopolO Romano Secs IArchdukc Joseph
 Joining Vienna and Budapest

Rome. Aug. Recommending on the situation in Hungary, the Popolo Romano suggests the possibility that Archduke Joseph, the head of the new Hungarian government, "is aim ing to restore the Hapsburg monarchy and again join Vienna and Budapest"
 "The annexation of Croatia and Slavonia may follow,' the newspaper says, as these two regions are even more bitter against the Serbians than against the Italians. The Hapsburg empire, having lost only Galicia and Bohemia, then would consider Plume as it's natural outlet. That is why Plume was refused to us. We must keep an eve on Triest, also. the last disorders there having assumed the character of a political plot organized bv pro-Austrian clements"

HUNT FOR ICE FLOATS
Precautions Taken Against Presence of Bcrgs in Path of Battlesllip Re- noun Carrying Prince of Wales.

St. John's, N. F, Aug. Especial precautions against the possible pres encc of ice foes and bergs in the path of the battleship Renown, bringing the Prince of Wales to Can- ada, were taken today. It was an- nounced that the cruiser Dauntless which preceded the escorting fleet to arrange for the Princes reception here, would cruise about the Grand Banks to locate ice and then proceed to sea to escort the Renown to her anchorage in Conception Bay. Sev- eral unusually large bergs have been reported in vicinity of shipping lanes during the week.

CITY COMMISSION
 AGAINST GARAGE
Believe That Tenement House in Rear of City Hall Is Too Valuable
 to Be Used As Garage

The question of what is to be done with the tenement house in the rear of City hall and fronting the railroad tracks on Washington Place, will be one of the chief discussions at the common council meeting next Tues day. The city commission under whose care this building comes, will recommend an expenditure of S4OOO for the renoVating and remodeling of this structure. The fact that there has been some talk about doing away with this old structure and utilizing the property for other purposes, the council will probably defer expending the money for improvements.
 Following an inspection of the building, the plum ping inspector re- ported that there is need for modern plumbing fixtures, gas and electric lights if the building is to comply with the ordinances so far as sanitary conditions arc concerned. The build ing is divided into four tenements and storcroom which is used by the charity department. F. H. Afford, chairman of the city commission and w. c. Dunn. secretary. have con- sdered the Improvements and will make recommendation at the coun- cil meeting. Although the building is old, the land constitutes a valuable site and the city commission be- lieves that the property is worth while holding to.
 It has been proposed by several that the building be made over into the city garage but the city commission feels that the property is too valuable for this purpose, and should the building be occupied by rentpayers it will be necessary that the proposed improvements be made.
 The common council will also con- slider the advisabilty of having mod ern fire escapes installed on city hall to replace the old-fashioned ladder fire escapes. The estimated cost is $1,O00.

ANXIETY EXPRESSED
 OVER J. 5. ATTITUDE
Panama Entertains Fears Regard
 ing League Of Nations Treaty

Panama, Aug. 9.-Dr Bclizario Porras, president of Panama, ex- pressed anxiety, in a statement issued last night over the attitude of the United States congress toward the first article of the American-Panaman treaty guaranteeing Panaman inde- pendence, in view of the objections voiced in the American senate toward the treaty and the League of Nations covenant which is similar
 Senator Walsh (Montana), Presi- dent Porras said, in speech which appears in the Congressional Record of June II defending the right of the president of the United States to full fill such an obligation without resort ing to congress for a declaration of war, mentioned the treaty between Panama and the United States In this treaty the latter guarantees and Panama.
 As the objections in the senate 10 the League of Nations are mainly by republican senators and as the repub- lcan party was mainly responsible for the approval of the treaty with Pan anna, there is felt in my country a certain anxiety in regard to the atti- tude of those republican senators of today because of the influence they may exercise in determining whether or not the first article of the Panama treaty, which is analogous to Arti- Gle X. of the league covenant, IS binding on the United States, in view of the constitutional questions raised in the senate.
 Tn view of the debate in the Amer lcan senate about the league cove nant and especially about Article K, which binds the high contracting par ties to respect and preserve the ter rltor1al integrity and the present po- lltlcal existence of all nations consti- tutlng the league, Panama wishes to know if the senators opposing the covenant hold beliefs that justify fears entertained by the Panamans regarding the ultimate fate of the United States obligation to maintain our independence"

THE GREAT GAMBLE"
 AT FOX'S THEATER

Great interest has been aroused among the motion picture devo1ees O. New Britain by the announcement that "The Great Gambl a new film serial, is soon to begin running at Fox's theater. The first chapter Oa it will be shown on the same program upon which the last episode of "The Tigers Train will appear.
 The fact that this new serial is made by the Pathe company is cer- tainly a good guarantee of it's excel lence, for that company can claim to have made the best and most enter taining serial pictures that have ever been produced, including "Patria," The Perils of Pauline," The Ex- ploits of Elaine," Pearl of the Army" "The Seven Pe-rls," Hands Up," "The Lightning Raider' and The Tigers Trail" And considerable significance is attached to a cont1en- tial statement made recently by a prominent Pathe official to the effect that never since the company was or ganized has so much time, honey and effort been expended on any serial as upon this last production, "The Great Gamble" e
 The stars of the picture are Anne Luther and Charles Hutchinson The latter is claimed to have esta blished a new record for hair-raising stunts and death-defying thrills in "Thc Great Gam ble.' He was seriously injured several times during the making of the picture and twice the extent of his injuries was so great that his life was despaired of by a famous California physician and all work on the picture had to be sus- pended for six weeks
 The first chapter, which is in three reels, will be seen next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and a different episode will be shown every week for the next 5 weeks.

 And now my dear senator, please accept my sincere thanks. I am
