Mother Of Monarchs

When in 1764 Letita Ramolino, a rather obscure
Corscan girl married Carlos Bonaparte, assessor,
ct the age Of a. there little in the occurrence to
indicate the farreachlng influence that was to IOI-
low their union
It was not particularly strange that Is children
were to be born to them but it is remarkable that OF
the IL four were destined to become emperors or
kings and two to become queens.
The most famous, of course was Napoleon Bona
parte who became emperor of France, and whose
name fills more pages of history than that Of any
other mortal who ever lived He was the second child
Joseph, the eldest, became king of Spain; Jerome
was king of Westphalla, and Louis was king OF Hoo
land. Of the daughters, Maria became queen OF
Naples and Elisa became queen OF TOscana.
Two other children he'd lesser rank, Lucien be-
coming prince Of Canine, and Marie Pauline becom-
ing duchess of Guastalla
Thus Lettia Ramolino has become known to the
world as "the mother of monarchs' 1t might be i'm
agined, therefore, that hers was a happy hfe-but
not so. She was often povertytrlcken and lived to
see all her royal children shorn of their power When
she died at the age Of &c. the great Napoleon had been
dead Is years; all her other children had lost their
royal prerogatives and while several survived her
they had ceased to be factors in public affairs.
But in spite of all that, Letita Ramolino gave to
the world progeny whose activities Old more TO
change the course OF events than that OF any OCnef
mother who lived.

Premier Laval, who is practically the
ruler of France, the President Of that
country being largely a fgurellead,
learned, when he landed in New York,
that being a parsonage has its troubles
He wanted to i3ok at the big city but,
he conhded to his iiltimateS, the most
he saw when he approached the Bat
terry, was lot Of silk hats and broad
backs belonging to the welcoming COM
mittee.
Even his mile ride UP Broadway to
the City Hall did not give him much
chance to see things as the crowds pres
sed close to his auto and demanded he
look at them and not at the buildings.
His experience is that of all famous
men. The way to see New York is to
slip in quietly and roam around with
out any committee telling you what to
do or where to go. Still, he enjoyed it
all, he claims.

When One Doctor squawked

One fashionable doctor here who
gets top fees, has been in the habit Of
sending his patients who had bad teeth
to a certain dentist. He made him
famous, and the tooth-puner finally got
to charging $1,000 fees himself.
Recently the doctors 16-year old son
needed dental work and he sent him tic
the dentist. After the work was done
he got a bill. For $1,000. Everybody
knows one doctor never charges an
other for attention and the doctor ex.
pected the work to be free.
He squawl1ed like stuck pig and got
the bill down to half, which he paid
The dentist told him he had to charge
him full rates because he had only SO
many hours day to work and his time
was fully taken up. Needless to state
the doctor is now recommending an.
other dentist to his clients.

Doctors Fees

There is no place in the world where
you can pay more for doctoring than
in New York, fees Of $1,000 and $4,000
being nothing uncommon for wealthy
people to pay. But, on the other hand,
if you haven't got a cent, you can pro-
badly get the same service from one of
the hundreds of free dispensaries.
DR.. Lorenz, of Vienna, once charged
Armour $4,000 for an operation on his
little daughter, Lolita, in Chicago and
cured her Of hip disease. On his way
West he stopped off in this city and
treated more than twenty poor children
for the same trouble And none Of their
paid one cent. That kind of charity, or
kindness, is going on all the time here
and in most other big cities.

Why Not Use Them?

From time to time we see accounts OF various
new mechanical inventions which appear to I'LL
real need but those who might profit by them seem
slow to put them to use.
For example, we have been reading for long
time about new automobile jack attached to the
car whereby any wheel may be lifted by manipulating
!: gadget from the drivers seat But we have never
seen one on any car
Again, we know that there has been invented
device which prevents staling Of an automobe-cer-
tainlY most desirable invention. Many lives have
been lost by the stalling of an automobile engine
while crossing railroad track or under other emer
gencv conditions.
Many engines have the dsconcertng habit of
dying when slowed down or stopped in traffic. and
this habit often has the most serious consequences
It looks as if enterprising manufacturers would
eagerly adopt a device which could be depended up
on to avoid this danger. Car would certainly
be glad to have this protection
What is the good Of useful inventions unless we
use them?

concerned. Dainty cottons as quaint
as they are lovely are bringing old
time romance back into an ultra
mOderniZed world. So far as the
traditional summer girl is con-
cerned she is coming into her own
as beguiling as ever she was in the
days of yore.
Her frocks will be made of ma

world of fashion e'er has seen
crisp, young-looking organdies, ex-
quisitely fine batiste, most of them
beautifully embroidered, others
smartly eyeleted, also dotted
swisses, usually with contrast dot,
competing with which are the
flowery voiles and chiffons. The

tunes to the character of the ma

at the back.
A stunning exponent of the popu-

beguiling creation, which is a loose

Good rostings
BY NELLIE MAXWELL

THE secret of good frostings
l. and filings for cakes is no
secret at ADJUST use good mate
rials, a little care and good
recipe; here are a few:
Boiled Frosting.-Boil together
two cupfuls of sugar, two table
spoonfuls of light corn sirup and
one-half cupful of water until the
sirup spins a thread. Pour it very
slowly over two stiffly beaten egg
whites. flavor with one teaspOonful
of flavoring and beat until thick
enough to spread well. To vary
the recipe add chopped nuts, rails
ms, figs or dates. Also coconut Of
various colors may be used to dust
the top and sides.
Fudge Frosting.-Cut fine two
squares of chocolate and combine
with two cupfuls of sugar, one-half
cupful of milk and one-fourth cup
full of dark corn sirup. Cook until
it forms a very soft ball when
dropped into cold water. Remove
from the fire, set the pan in cold
water and cool. then flavor and
beat until thick enough to spread
on the cake. For those who prefer
maple flavoring use either maple
sugar or the maple flavoring in
stead Of the chocolate.
Tropical FiIling.-Put one-fOurth
cupful of sugar. one tablespoonful
of cornstarch and one-fourth tea
spoonful of salt into a double boil
err: when well blended add a half
cupful of diced orange peel, one
half cupful of orange juice, two ta-
bIespoonfuls of butter and one egg
yolk; cook until smooth and thick.

a S WIDE as you care to veal
n them is fashions message in
regard to brims for the summer
hat. Furthermore, from the stand
point of what's what in broad
brims, the more they go flop, flop,
flop, fioppy-hop, the better. Which
means that they are not wired but
are left to the mercy of each pass
ing summer breeze.
There is apparently no such thing
as wearing too wide a flop brim.
Those fashionable for beach wear
are simply enormous, the dimen-
sions of some being almost unbe-
lievable.
1t is interesting to note the va
riety of straws and fabrics as well,
which go to make up the new wide
Of-brim hats which are lending
their picturesque presence to the
summer landscape. They are max
ing these fiattering chapeauX of or

rials as well as of stiffly starched
lace.

paint or do anything like that"
Never mind, Kate" said Leo
nora, with a little patronage. IF
we did go to Australia, we wouldn't
let you starve."
Meanwhile the rain had turned
from a steady drizzle to a devas-
tating dOwnpOur. LeonOra seemed
uneasy and started at the slightest
sound. Finally the telephone rang,
and after five minutes cOnversa-
ton in the telephone nook in the
hall Leonora came back with
flushed face and bewildered ex-
preston.
"I'll have to tell you the truth"
she said. "We'd had trouble in the
kitchen and when the girls heard
we were having this party they
walked out. Left this morning.
Mother telephoned at once to Ben
ton, where we get our maids, and
engaged two, and after you'd got
here she drove over to get them.
And now she has telephoned to say
that she couldn't get the girls and
get back here herself. The bridge
between here and Benton has been
undermined by the rain-and so
here we are"
The rain had increased to such
an alarming extent that there would
be no hope of the arrival of the out
side guests for the dance that
night, still there were eight people
in the house and dinner had to be
prepared and LeOnOra was frantic.
1t was not until Kate donned
Smock and went to work that there
was any real promise of any sort
of dinner. Roger somewhere found

stalwart person and then shooing

said that dinner would be ready
at seven and that he and Kate could
work better alone.
Having nothing else to do, the
others dressed for dinner, which
turned out to be most toothsome
and well served Even Leonora,
forgetting that there are dishes to
wash after dinner, donned q light
pink frock she had made especially
for the occasion. So after dinner

don raincOats and go for a tramp

Roger Tilden, the athlete. "This is

After a little urging Leonora re-
vealed the fact that she was an ex-
pert dancer. She could even do ex-
hibition dancing, and she could
swim like a fish and drive a car,
and she had undoubted qualifica-

Maud, of course. could make a
career for herself as a musician.
Alice boaSted of two university de-

A STORY FOR THE CHILDREN

flew gently over their tanks say

see the beautiful colors the fish
would turn as soon as they began
to play.
SO the fairies seated them
selves on the edge of the tank un-
til the fishes were quite wide
awake.
"What will we play?" asked one
sleepy fish.
Let's run races" said one Of the
fairies.
SO the races began around and

All kinds of fishes that are rare

in the fish world is like a zoo in
the animal world.
Now the fairies thought that
some time very, very early in the
morning they would pay a flying
visit to the fighting fish before any
of the aquarium keepers were up
and around.
These fishes had come from far
away, and the more they fight the
more they change color.
They turn from dull grays into
