FOR WOMEN FOLKS THE UNSOLVED PROBLEM He had spent long years in college and ac quired all kinds of knowledge. From smoking cigaretts to reading Greek , and it was said by many that in Hebrew, Es kimo and Latin With the accent of a native he could speak. He knew every modern science, and fore ‘ry new appliance He was able some improvement to suggest; And from bending on a hawser up to criticis ing Changer, Os all the greatest minds he wes abreast. He was eha'mud with hydrostatics, and in higher mathematics Not a thing to stump him could he find ; And to proven line's direction or select a con q section Was but a relaxation to his mind. But he saw a little maiden after all this store he laid in; The most inviting problem he had met; And he felt it was his mission to employ bis erudition To solve ibis most inviting problem yet. So, without a bit of shirking, he has ever since been working On the question with an ardor that never tires; Yet with all his application, to his great and deep vexation, He cannot get the answer he desires. —Frank Wysor.

Victoria s Idea of a Royal Table Queen Victoria’s private dinner table is remarkable not less for its peculiar dishes than for court eti quette botn as to the attire and con duct of the guests. It is gravely stated as a fact that ’he Queen’s peace of mind would be disturbed and her dinner spoil ed if the conventional forms of court ceremony should be in the 1 ghtest respect v o ated. In nine cases out of ten an oat meal soup will be the first substan tialdish. Dis a very good soil] , but not of the kind one expects o find on a royal table. Still as Vic toria likes it,her guests must make the best of it. With the soup white cherry is served,the Queen taking her drink out of a beautiful golden cup, a rel icof Queen Anne,who had the rep utation of being id her cups, more or less all the time. Twenty.three years have passed tince the death of the Prince Con sort, but the boiled beef and piok led cucumbers he Joved so much are still among the dishes invaria bly found on the Queen’s menu, following the soup, 1 The baron of beef is likewise never missing. At the moment it 1 is served rhe band- plays the tune “I'tie Roast Beef of Old Euglai d ’ < Mary and the Baby Our Mary aud the baby. Just think of it I the statuesque queen of tragedy in the role of mama ! Well, why not?

When to Avoid Candy. Sugar is one of the best of the fat pro-ducing food?, ind for that reason js bad for persons, young or old, in whome there is a tendency to accu mu ate too much fat. The converse of this is true—it is a valuable food for those,young or old, who are too thin. It is also valuable .because it is easily {digested, ,to those |who are weak,who suffer from a lack of anima] beat, and who need building U], Not too much ot, thougl, because there are elements needed in the body which sugpr will not supply. Sugar is exceedingly satisfying to the appe tite, I know mana who was an e”ficer of cavalry during the Civil Wai, and on one occasion during a raid he found an opportunity to till his haversack and both saddle bags with brown sugar. The men of his command did the same. It was four days before they were al le to g?t a supply o f rations, aud during that time they lived on the sugar and were pei fectly contented with the diet. This story points to one rule which may be safely laid down for al] Candy should not be eaten in; n. 6 ’i ately before meals by either child or laduits.because it will destroy the ap petite for other food, and that others THE HUSTLER OF ROME THnRSDAY OCTOBER 1 I 1894, should be taken first,because of the food element found in it and which i> not found iu candy. In other words the supply of sugar should be adjust ed to that <>f other foods in a natural and commoi -sense way proportion.- Ladie’s Home Journal. How She Did it. The woman thought she would have some fun with the newly married ofie, so she went to see her and turned loose a lot of house hold questions on her. “By the way,” asktd the visitor after some sparring, “how do you wash your fine china?” “Usually with water,” respond ed tha young one demurely, and the cha’echism closed tor that day —Detroit Free Press. A Button Bag. A novel button bag consists of a cocoanut shell sawed in two, with a hole bored in the lower end of one half. A bag is then made of brown silk, hemed at the top and slightly gathered at the bottom, and in a facing made in the hem are insert ed draw-strings of ribbon, an inch wide, to match the silk. The bag is then fastened inside the shell by sewing a piece of ribbon to the bottom of it. Draw an end of this ribbon through each hole at the bottom of the shell, and tie them with long ends and loops. Silver Throatlets. One of the pretty new affairs the clever silversmith is showing us is a throatlet. Is not that an allurinp way to put it? It is yards a d yards of very flue silver chain. Tht links are tiny, and at intervals the links clasp a jewel. These are about the size of a French pea, and “secondary stones, are all that are used. Among them are many brilliant and beautiful varieties, so that the throatlet is bright with greens.reds *nd yellows. It is to be wound about the throat, and the fastening is con cealed under one of the jewels. Same Girl Same Chicken. A traveling man dining at a restaurant ordered a boiled chick en for his dinner. It was placed be fore him. and he tried in vain to make an incision with his knife a id fork Turning to the girl who waited on him, he eaid : “I was here five years ago, and ordered a chicken for dinner. ”2 “Oh, yes,” and answered the girl, flippantly, “I remember, It waa I who waited on you.” “How strange, how very strange” remarked the man iu a verry low, awestruck tone. ••Why is it strange?” inquired tbe girl. ‘•lt’s more thru strange, it’e wonderful--such a coincidence could hardly twice —sama girl, same chicken,” and he look ed reverently at the specimen be fore him while the girl made a £asty retreat. —Georgia Cracker.
