“One of the plans that Mr. Freshington
and I have ir. ro:n<! for the coming seeks.*'
safe) Mr. Dobley to his wife, "is the estate !
lishment of a S.ay-at-Home Club.”
“What will it be like?" asked Mrs. Dob- |
ley
“It will be devoted to matters that peo
ple are 100 busy to think about during
the winter said Mr. Dobley, “and its
most interesting department will be a cu- '
lira r kindergaren."
“Do you mean a cooking class?" inquir
ed Mrs Dob. '
“I mean a class in culinary education,”
explained Mr Dobley. “This is a subject
In trhi.h we Americans are sill! In the
primer stage. We have the beat hotels
in the world and the finest chefs. but
about the culinary art or even about the
proper foods and when to eat them and
how they should be cooked, we know
next to nothing.”
“is this to t* a social club or a philan
thropic idea'.'" asked Mrs. Liobley. “Will
ladies be admitted to membership or will
tt be one of those horrid eating clubs?"
“It will be both social and philanthrop
ic said Mr. Dobley. “It will refine, ed
ucate and gradually ennoble its members.
Food has more to do with the workings
of the mind ar.d the subsequent act oos of
the human being than we imagine The
trouble ,s that cooking is not dignified as
U should be among the accomplisnmen s.
It is regarded by many as a subject to bi
dealt with in the cosey corner of a coun
try newspaper. Individually we know it
U important but we refuse to accord It
the place generally, that it de-erves.
FTeshingion .hlnks that a culinary kin
dergarten will fill the bill.”
“But don't you think it is better that
people do not attach so much importance
to such things? sold Mrs. Dobley. 'We
should probably deteriorate in other
ways "
“A proper knowledge of food and a high
er education in the cuisine would not have
that effect, said Mr. Dobley “It would
first impress upon us the important fact
that we all cat too much and too often
and at the wrong times. One cf the
first results we should aim at would be
the abolition of the luncheon habit.”
"What a dreadful plan:” exclaimed Mrs.
Dobley
“Not at a’.:," said Mr. Dobley. “The
luncheon habit is a hideous mistake Nine
people out of ten eat the midday meal
not because they are hungry, but for the
reason that others do so. Women, I may
say are the chief offenders in this re
spect."
"I should rather omit breakfast than
luncheon." said Mrs. Dobley, "Just as
they do abroad."
“The coffee and roll fad." said Mr. Dob
ley. "Is pernicious. It is the result of the
deadly late supper. No. breakfast and
dinner should be the two principal meals
for those who really require fcaxl. But
FYeshington and 1 propose to eradicate
finally this idea that food is absolutely
necessary. At all events we shall try to
Introduce and establish the capsule plan.
Think of the time that might be saved
If instead of siting down to a course din
ner one might simply take out a case of
assorted capsules and the question of din
ner would be settled in a few moments at
most To busy people this would be an
Inestimable boon.”
"But if you did aay with dinner and
luncheon giving. you would take away one
of our mo't delightful forms of entertain
ing. '
"I think myself.” said Mr Dobley. ‘ that
ciapsule dinners would be in every way
more desirable than the usual thing. Then
think of the novelty, it would oo entirely
original and everybody Is crying out for
novelty nowadays. Fancy how much it
would please a party of guests to be seat
ed around a table upon which sparkling
glass dishes of capsules in different col
ors would be distributed instead of heavy
roasis. gravies ond vegetables? Think of
the rainbow effects that might be pro
duced by ming.ing the shades artistical
ly”
"I have never seen any food capsules.”
■aid Mr. Dobley. "but 1 didn't imagine that
they were in colors.”
"They are not at present.” said Mr. Dob
ley, “but Freshington and 1 propose to
manufacture a capsule that will bo pro
duced in all the most exquisite and newest
shades We agree that the sort of people
who would go in for the capsule fad would
be of dainty tastes. Therefore we wili
appeal to the eye by having t)te entire
dinner constitute an admirable c'Mor
scheme as well as an excellent repast. For
instance, we should have the soup in Nile
green—oval and globular. One .capsule
woald constitute a plate of soup."
“It would seem like gu.ping one's soup
to take it in that way.”
"On the contrary, my dear." said Mr.
Dobiey, "the new way of dining would
do away with evei y disagreeable feature
of table etiquette. No one could at
tempt to eat with a knife, for no one
would think of slicing a capsule. No one
could spill soup or tip up the plate or
eat toward him or other forbidden things
if he had only a capsule to handle. Soup,
you know, is one of the most ungraceful
foods in the list."
"How about olives and salted almonds
and things of that sort?" asked Mrs.
Dobley. "I am very fond of peanut sand
wiches also. Surely you wouldn't have
those in the capsule form?"
"We should have those frivolous foods
all In a sugar-coated morsel that could be
carried in a small box In the vest pocket
or in a bonbonnlore. We have a delight
ful idea for the ftsh. We have a newly In
vented phosphorescent ••oailng that wil

like jewels The different tlr.tlngs will
Indicate the different fish. They will be
actually tempting, and you see the great
advantage" There will be no bones. At
last we will be able to enjoy that noble

CHASED A BLACK BEAR.
Turpentine and Mill Hands Are
Alarmed About the Brnte.
Waycross. Ga., June 29.—Considerable
excitement was created a few days ago at
Guthrie & Harper's sawmill, near Manor.
A large black bear appeared, and as
Bruin had considerable difficulty in cross
ing the barbed wire fence enclosing the
Plant System tracks. Mr. Guthrie got very
close to him. As he had no gun at
hand, Mr. Guthrie hurried over to Mr. D.
C. Carmichael's, and it was not long be
fore a half doxen men and dogs were In
the chase. The dogs refused co follow
the trail very far, however, and the chase
was abandoned. The bear has been seen
several time* since, and will be hunted
till located and killed, as the turpentine
and mill hands refuse to work the woods
where he has been seen.
Crops in the manor district have been
damaged by the heavy rains recently. Com
and cotton will be about 50 per cent, short,
and melons are almost a complete fall-
ure.
Mr. M. G. Tootle of Glenville is the
father of H. C. Tootle, the unfortunate
man who so peculiarly disappeared from
Waresboro the other night, and he is much
distressed about his son. It will be re
membered that he suddenly walked out
of Mr. Wilson's house about 9 o'clock at
night and has never been seen since.
C. Huxford has withdrawn his announce
ment as a candidate for legislative hon

A desperate fight between Henry Pance

ME* WHO HAVE MIMED CROWNS.
Some of Those Who Could Have
Been Kings Had They W ished.
From Tit Bits.
The English crown has been rejected
only once and Cromwell was *the man
who refused the honor. Nevertheless,
practically as much power was attached
to the protectorship, though it was with
out the regal emblem.
I*io crown of Greece has been refused
more times than any other. Lord Derby,
one of ttie greatest statesmen of the Vic
torian era, might have worn it had he
chosen, for it w.*s offered to him thirty
eight years ago upon the expulsion of
Otto and owing to the friendly feelings
he exhibited toward Greece. After some
consideration, tmwever, he decided that
his position as a British statesman pre
vented his being a monarch, so he re
fused the throne and the £30,000 a year
attached to it.
Englishmen seem to have found favor
in Greece at that time, for no sooner had
Lord Derby refused the throne than it
was offered to the Duke of Edinburgh,
the Queen's second son. He would in all
probability have accepted it had it not
been for the objections of other Euro
pean sovereigns, who considered that a
son of Queen Victoria as King of Greece
would make that country an ally of Great
Britain in the event of war, although the
former's military strength was as insig
nificant as it Is now. The Duke of Edin
burgh was. therefore, obliged to be con
tent with his British title, so the throne
was then offered to and accepted by the
present King. George of Denmark, broth
er of the Princess of Wales.
Garibaldi, the great Italian patriot,
might h ive been King of S city had he
not refused the proffered throne. Victor
i Emmanuel thought that nothing short of
a kingdom would be sufficient reward for
the great services he had reisdered to
Italy, so he resolved to cut off Sicily and
moke it a kingdom under Garibaldi, but
subject to t ie Italian government. More
over. the great soldier was the idol of
the Italian people ar.d It was feared that
Victor Emmanuel himself would easily be
deposed in his favor if a rebellion were
organized. Garibjl it. hoxeier, disliked
honors as he dll riches, and. rejecting
the offer, retired into obscurity as soon
ns he had done what he considered to be
his duty.
Much as the zrreat Napoleon loved pow
er. he once refused the monarchy of
Ppain, this being the third consecutive
:ime it had been declined. Ferdinand VII
first of all passed It on to his father,
who. in turn, rejected it in favor of Na
poleon. The “Little Corporal” would un
doubtedly have resigned ns King of Spain
as well as Emperor of France, only the
Spaniard* showed every Inclination of
rising if he attempted to do so.
Another man who might have beer, a
King had he wished was Bismarck. Not
only did Prussia crush Austria in the
great wor of IWB, but several minor
slates a* well, and for his services in
bringing the campaign to a successful is
sue. Bismarck was offered th ehrone of
one of those kinciom* which now come
under Prussian surveillsnoe.
The throne of Austria was refused in
1549 by the father of the present Ercp-or
Francis Joseph. He was the Archduke
Carl, and when Ferdinand I abdicated on
account of Internal strife in the year
mentioned he absolutely refused to have
anything o do with ihe monarchy, though
he was the rightful heir. The crown was
then offered to his son ar.d accept'd, but
the f.V.hr remained Archduke for some
years afterward
Some years ago a Prince N.pol?on,
netvhew of the great Bonaparte, died m
exile after refusing the hra* offer off**fi
ercer n of Roumania w h-n it was convert
ed Into a kingdom He waa a man of
great ambitions, and fully believed that
at a future data be would be offered ihe
monarchy of France, sc he reclined the .
farmer in the hopes that he would get
better things. By so do.ng he los his
chance of ever becoming a King, and died j
a few years afterward an outcast.

How He Helped to flear a sqoare
at %lexanUria. 'vgypt.
From the New York Herald.
Of what mettle Maj Littleton W. T |
Waller of Virginia, now leading American !
marines ir* China, is made was well dis
played at Alexandria. Egypt, in I¥2. just
after ’ the bombardment of the British
fleet.
The Qulnr.ebaug was the cn’y American
vessel in the harbor. W :th the desire to
protect innocent persons* from poss.ble
looting of the city, the marine suard of J
twenty-fly* men. under Lieut. Waller, was |
ordered to report on shore to Lord Cnar.es
Beresford, captain of Hrr Majesty's ship
Condor, for such duty a- might be as
signed.
Lord Charles Beresford. who had under
his command several hundred marines, in
formed Lieut. Waller that the center of
danger was in a square con*aining the
principal banking houses residences and
clubs of the city. It was generally ru- *
mo red that the followers of the “False i
Prophet” would bum the foreign buildings
and massacre their inhabitants, so U was
necessary that the square saould be clear
ed Waller replied:
“Very well, sir: I'll clear out two sides j
and keep them safe. Which two sides w:i;
you select?**
His position assigned. h;s * small, thin j
lice” was formed aAoes one corner of the
rectangle, barely reaching from euro to
curb, and almost impossible of alignment j
on account of the surging mass of the
populace.
Struggling to the front of his men. he
ordered that they should ‘load Nall cart
ridges. * Bayonets were fixed and Waller
loaded his revolver. Then, addressing his
men, he said:
“My lads, we have got to clear tw o s.ies
of this square. We don't want to have to
kill these people unless necessary. My
place is behind you all. Any man who
fires without orders I will shoot down my
self: every man. when he fires, must kiL
a man.*’
A short drill followed as an object les
son of what might be expected. "Arms
port”' Charge bayonets! •‘Aim! ar.d the
masses saw that these few Americans were
satisfied that they would pull through.
With arms port the English and Ameri
can forces started simu ar.eousiy around
the square. The Americans pushed stead
ily onward without firing a shot. The
crowd melted before them as they ad
vanced. At each comer of the streets
opening into the plaza Waller detailed a
marine for sentry duty.
Volley after volley we? poured out by
the English sailors as they advanced. At
the opposite corner the two commands
met. Waller's little band r.ot having fired
a shot.
-BLOWN OFF** HY ARTIST BROWN.
How the Well Known Painter of Ur
chin* Dl*po*ed of a Mob.
From Success.
J. G. Brown, famous in both hemispheres |
as the artistic Homer of the American I
street urchin, does not always fin-1 it ar.
easy matter to procure the right kind of
models for his newsboys ar.d bootblack
groups. As an example of the artist's dif
ficulties in securing appropriate subjects
for his brush, a feiiow painter relates the
following story:
Mr. Brown had eegag-i a wide-awake
youth to scour the streets for a boy model,
"not too ragged, and not too good." The
youthful agent, himself a . interesting type
of the street arab. had rr -*re enthusiasm
than judgment, the artist soon discovered.
Arriving at his tudlo at ar. early hour on
morning the venerable artist fc-ur.d the
narrow hallway leading to his atelier lit
erally choked with excited boys of every
age and complexion, and of almost every
nationality. In one thing were the boy
similar; every one had a well-scrubbed
countenance, clean hands, and wore the
very best bib and tucker. In other wools
eacn mother's son of them was hopelessly
spruce, and, for the artist's purpose, use
less.
"Bless my soul, what's all this row
about?” chirruped the good-natured old
painter.
”1 bought I'd bring youse de bull gang
ter choose from." spoke up the artist •
ager.i. "Dey's r.or.e o' drm too ragged, is
dey? ar.' none o d-m too good, eider as
youse said, see"'
Mr. Brown saw. but be was too dazzled
by the proposition before him to speak
"Ain't dey all right mister?'' queried
the master of ceremonies, noticing the art
ist's perplexity.
"Why, of course, certainly." replied Mr.
Brown. ' But I don't want a Sur.dav
School class, my lad. I want oqlv one
boy, and I want him in his working
clothes with his face unwashed ar.d his
hair ail mussed up.”
"Oh. I can git all o' dem kind ver
wants," exclaimed the enthusiastic agent,
as he started for the stairs.
"Here, come back: ' shouted Mr. Brown,
fearing the arrival of another delegation
of small boys "I'll tell you whet 1 Ido
You take this half-dollar ar.d treat ail
these boys to pie. Then you find me a lad
who has just finisced shining a man's
boots and bring him here and I'll give you
a quarter for your trouble.''
"Dat's a go,” shouted the agent. Then,
turning to the gaping mob. he explained
"He's give me a half a dollar ter blow
youse all off ter pie. He s a peach, feilers
hat's what de ole 'an is. What's de mat
ter Bid de ole gent? Now, a.I terg-d.ier
fellers:”
"He's all right ” promptly responded the
throng of would-be models. In a chorus
that made the mahogany balustrade rat
tle. and brought the janitor clattering up
the stair* The boys, it may be supposed
were duly “blown off.” At all events. Mr.

mountains of his native Roumania. He
ran for his life and the bandits followed.
He came to the edge of a precipice ar.d
attempted to leap across the chasm, but
missed his footing and fell. He wns
whirling down the abyss when he caught
his chin on a vine that streichtd across,
i he vine saved his neck as he hung there
until he could feel—to intense horror, the
warm blood come.
Y\olfe awake- with a start and discov
ered his wife had cut his throat with a
razor while he slept and was standing
over him holding the weapon.
Her throat, too, was slashed with the
razor. She was stil! conscious, and ad

and bad then attempted to take her own

Two I spies* Hutton*.
From the National Rural.
An American, so the storv goes was
once questioning a Chinaman as to the
reason for many of the customs which
seem absurd to us. At-length, after long
endurance, the Chinaman replied:
"And now, my deur sir. I would Ike
to ask you a question which has puz
zled me sreatlv. W.ll you kindly ted
m. why Americans and Europeans we tr
two useless buttons on the backs of iheir
coat*? '
Cnabie to answer, the American raised
the question at home. Investigators set
to work and what do you think they d!--
covered" Long ago. when every gentle
man wore a sword and had to hang it
from a belt, these two buttons hold 'he
belt to the coat Yetys passed- men
became more civilized and left the sword
to soldiers' use: the belt went out o'
fashion—for men are as particular about
fashion as women, but the two buttons
were left to this very day.
