The Term "Prime Minister."
"Prime minister" is one of the many
terms in English which seem to have
been slang at one time. It was first
applied to Sir Robert Walpole, but in a
reproachful sense. Feb. 11, 1742, after
twenty years' tenure of office, Sir Rob
ert resigned all his employments.
"Having invested me," he remarked,
"with a kind of mock dignity and
styled me prime minister, they impute
to me an unpardonable abuse of that
chimerical authority which they creat
ed and conferred." Such a personage
as the prime minister or the premier is
not even mentioned in the official table
of precedence and is unknown to the
written constitution of Great Britain.
The Achaean League.
The Achaean league was formed by
the twelve towns of Achaea for mu
tual protection against foreign aggres
sion. It was broken up by Alexander
the Great, but reorganized B. C. 280
and again dissolved B. C- 147. The
second of these leagues comprised all
the leading cities of the Peloponnesus
and, indeed, most of the cities and
states of Greece. It was this league
which contended with the Romans for
the independence of Greece; but, its
troops being defeated by Metellus at
Scarphaea and by Mummius near Cor
inth, the league was dissolved, and all
Greece submitted to the Roman domi
nation. HasT"h7ee Climates.
Abyssinia has three climates, accord
ing to the altitude above the sea. In
the low country or valleys bananas,
dates, indigo, cotton and other tropical
plants flourish. Elephants, Hons, gi
raffes, zebras and gazelles abound. The
intermediate zone recalls the climate
of Sicily or of Andalusia, in Spain.
There is good pasture for flocks and
herds in the highest region.
WHITE LINEN GOWN
White linen and eyelet embroidery
were combined in the Tnaking of this
airy little gown. Three bands of the
eyelet form the waist, the center hand
continuing beneath the girdle to form
a tablier front edged with a lace ruf
fle. The outer bands of embroidery
cross the shoulder and continue in the
back. Embroidery bands. the sleeves.
The skirt has a rather short tunic
with a modified pannier gathered in
to a broad band of eyelet embroidery
which is finished on the bottom with
small crochet balls. The underskirt"
is severely plain. Hat of white chip
with large white aigrette.

Scandinavians.
The term "Scandinavians" is not
confined to the Norwegians. The Nor
wegians are indeed Scandinavians, but
so also are the Swedes, Danes and Ice
landers. For that matter, the Ger
mans, English and Americans of Eng
lish stock are also of the Scandinavian
stock, since it is more than probable
that Germany was originally stocked
from the land of the northmen, and it
is from the North German stock that
the so called "Anglo-Saxon" comes.
The northman has written his name
large in history, and his breed is today
ruling the world and will continue to
rule it, in all likelihood, to the end of
time. There is no other blood so virile
and powerful. New York American.
His Apology.
"Sorry, old man, I called you a fool,
I should have remembered the well
known injunction."'
"You mean the verse which says
that he who calls- his brother a fool Is
in danger of everlasting fire?"
"No; I mean the saying, 'The truth
should not be spoken at, all times."'

soothing, antiseptic qualities help to
allay irritation and keep the skin in
health. It is cooling, comforting a
delight to men and women who want
the best and daintiest.

in every way please the most exact
ing woman. That is why we sell more
of it than of any other kind, and hear
more praise for it than for all other

BITULITH1C MAKES GOOD IN COL
FAX Proves So Satisfactory that it will be
used exclusively in this city
The Warren Construction Company
has been granted the contract to pave
Perkins avenue district, thus com
pleting the whole of the paving in Col
fax, which is now a bitulithic town in
every sense of the ; word. The ef
forts of ' some property owners to
bring in other paving and divide the
business of the town has come to
naught. The company which has pav
ed all of Colfax's streets that have
have been paved to date, and which
has proved so satisfactory has been
granted the exclusive right to the
business of the town and -no other
paving is to be used here. This is
not the result solely of action by the
city council. Bitulithic paving has
given such general satisfaction that
there are few property owners who
desire any other kind.

opeman Automatic
llectric Range
. This wil) be something to make you sit up and take notice.
Many great things have been invented in the last decade, but very
little attention has been given to lightening women's work.
This famous range does away with all dirt, soot, grease, ashes and the
use of oils. It reduces the heat in the room to a trifle. It can be turned on
as easily as" an electric light and is n ot only a labor saver but is more ec
onomical than any other way of cook-ing.
An expert lady demonstrator will be at our office for there days, Thurs
day; 15, Friday 16, and Saturday 17. She will make practical demonstrations-of
this famous range. '
