Tho papers by Mrs. Gore and Miss Santeo wcro brief and very much to tho point, factors which arc appreciated in club work. Anions tho principal thoughts la Mrs Core's article were the development of the school curriculum, music n science as well as an art and therefore, to bo taught on scientific principles, the bringing of tho school In touch with (ho life of tho child and tho iill-lm portnnt question, "Do tvo want music n tho schools?' That tlvo essential tralta of char acter may be aided In their develop ment by the study of music was tho Fist of Miss Santeo's argument, those requisites being alertness, punctual 10, concentration, person erance and patience.

"Of course, If agents selling con signed produce were prohibited by statute from dealing In produce on their own nceouut, one troublesome feature reforred to would probably be avoided and the consignee's temp tation to speculate In the produce entrusted to him would be removed.

Tho Interests of tho shipper and (ho agent nro not sufficiently alike to accomplish this, and oxporlence appears to fully es tablish tho fact that shippers from points romoto from markets must or ganize sufficiently to provide nde- qnato nttcntlon to (heir Interest In the markets. heiIkn c (Sale "Ileal America In Hnmancc," by Ed win Mftrkham. Pub. by Wlso & Co. Edwin Markham, realizing that patriotism Is a sentiment that Is fait dying out In America, conceived tho idea of writing tko history of this country In tho form that would make faclnutlng reading and at the samo time would mako tho heroes so llfo )ko as to inspire tho reader with their brave deeds, thus arising the intcrcfat and patriotism that the chronicles of dry school book history oanaot do. "Ileal America in Ro mance" is tho result. Tho work em braces 13 volume, starting at the birth of Columbus In 143& and bring ing us up to the present time, not an ovent Is omitted, and all the char acters aro depleted, In an Intimate, jtersonal way Thero are 3100 Il lustrations In tho books, C00 being copies i from masterpieces. All the portraits, birthplaces, burial places of great men and r-amen are given. All. battlefields, forts and nioiiu mcf(ta , are pictured. Theso books wcro yrlUen especially for tho now generation. Tho fictitious characters, employed to glvo a connecting thread to real events, mako tho story of America of real exciting interest to the yonthful reader and presents tho Usually dry study of history In n most enchanting form. There has probably been no other history of America so completely and boautlfully written as this ono by Edwin MaHkbam. , '.('onroit Pitch," by Frank Danby, Pub, by MacMlllun. I'dldn t know they did It any moro bu( thoy still do write books whorolp tho courso of truo lovo Is bumpy with misunderstandings that could fa easily bo explained away if the author would only glvo the hero mid heroine flvo minutes moro con vunmtlpn so that tholr hasty tempers npd Btubborn prldo could simmer down; ,w)iero such foolish inlijundor st,undligs lend to direful resultH thiough chapter after chapter and then tho book ends as beautifully as tjia lasf bcoiio In u moving picture. "Poucert Pitch" Is as full of toars und lovers' quarulls us "East Lynnc." Here s tho outllno of tho story. Ueecn' It sound' as If poor Lady lthl land Sir Archibald hud wun doriMl back from tho ten cent novels of long ago Into tho ?1.D0 editions of tho. month's best sellers? Manuka; Wagtier was tho dnugh tr of a mllUoualre) Sir Herbert Wagner, a man -with a newly ac quired title, chronic Indigestion and an exacting domineering second wife. Lady Wagner was a climber and when sho had got as far up on tho social ladder as her wealth could carry her. sho thought she could aid her ascent by marrying Manuella, her Btep-daughtor, into somo poor but noble family. So very much against tho 17-year-old Manucllu's wishes, tho girl was taken otit of tho Euro pean school which sho was attending and launched Into society. Lady Sallust, a friend of Lady Wagner, had a nephow, Lord Lys tons, whom she wished to marry to the Wagner millions. Lord Lyssons, not knowing tho girl whom his, aunt wished, him to wed, declined to of,fer his title and hand so left for tho con tinent. However., as he crossed back to England bp happened to bo on thoj same boat with Manuella. Having no idea, whatever, that sho was tho girl his mint had, selected for bis wife, he took a sudden liking tp her. I Tho noit tlmo ho met her was at a party given in honor of her newly . announced ongagoment to Lord Cal Ingtord, a dissolute impoverished1 man, much older than his Intended bride. 'Lord Lyssons understood that tho girl had, bepn forced Into this match and his sympathy went out to her. Before the wedding took place, however, a letter from Lord Callng ford's mistress caused Manuella to break her engagement with him. 'Lord Lyssons canio forward with a genuine lovo and was eagerly accoptcd by tho family and reluctantly by Manuella. In tho meantime Manuella had met a musical genius, Harston Magottl, who with Bohemian bad taste and a mu sician's ardor raado violent lovo to the girl. Manuella felt that Lord Lyssons was marrying her for her money, sho really loved him, but her suspicions against him woro strengthened by tho lomarka of her stop-mothor. Aftor a foolish misunderstanding, rather than let him know that sho loved him, sho elopod with Mugottl, The best part of tho book Is whero her llfo us tho wife of a genius is de scribed, Sho found out shortly after her marrlago that sho did not love her husband at all. That ho was not llko other men and thut his gift us a composer was the chlof concern. Even bis .friends had no sympathy for her In her poverty and miserable life, Sho cooked, sowed, tolled, day aftor day with no compensation, Even when her child was born sho wan ilcglcctod and uulpved. Finally her husband cloned with nn onrra alneor Lord Lyssons appeared on the scene' again about this time but his friend ship and love for Manuella was met with tho same old misunderstandings. Magottl produced an opera In Italy with great success. His mIMrcss was the prima donna and aa tho two were bowing before tho footlights In nil the glory of their success, tho hus band of tho prima donna shot .Magot tl. After this tragic clearance of n superfluous husband from tho plot. Lord Lyssons married Manuella. Her family who had cut her oft when sho had eloped with tho musician, offered their forglvouess. When tho boenmo tho wife of Lord Lyssons. . One fools that instead of "The End" bolng written on thn last page, It should read. "Passed by the atlounl Hoard of. Censorship."

Tho Mission of tlio Toastor Stovo Fresh, crisp, golcloiirbrown toast! Does it not convoy n ple.'isini,' suggestion to tlio palato? Is there auv othoV t'orni in wliich bread is served that will equal it 7 Is thoro anything that gives as niiu'h tone to any meal, for toast appears in so many forms and has become tho necessary accompaniment of so many delirious dishes, wo could hardly do wlthoiit it. To make toast ill the dining room on iho table so that it can be served fresh and crisp is my mission. .My name is electric toaster-stove. I might bo lahon for a five-pound candy box, if I were not made of motal, finished in highly polished nickel and did not have four logs and a mouth. My place is right on tho breakfast tahlo close to tho lady of the house. A warm friendship soon grows up between us all from the time I niako my first appearance at, the table my position is assured. Shu takes prido in having the meal served in its best form and when she discovers how well I prepare tho important pari for which I am responsible and how little of her atten tion J require, she finds me indispensable. She likes to haVo mo on the table, because it is as great a pleasure for her to servo tho good, hoi toast that 1 make, as it is I'm' other members of tho family to eat it. My important feature my reason for existence is my electric heating element. This is just a serlon of molal strips that give off heat when tho cuiTont- flows. The lady puts a cord from an electric outlet into my mouth and before sho knows it, j'm hot just hot enough to make perfect toast.
