Queen Olga of Greece la the only
woman admiral In the world. She is
Officially the commander ot the sec
ond squadron ot .the Russian fleet,
Utd her flagship Is the cruiser Ad
miral MakarolT. Queen Olga was
Grand Duchess Olga Constantlnova of
Russia. She was married to Prince
William ot Denmark, who, when eigh
teen years old, was elected King ot
the Hellenes and assumed the title
ot George I. Before the wedding
Alexander III., then Czar of the Rus
Blas, appointed Olga an admiral in
the Russian navy. New York Press.
"ON" AND "OFF."
Mrs. Siddons was, on and off .the
tage, two different persons. On the
stage she was a pythoness, nightly
hypnotized Into passionate emotions
f "yby the sight ot the drop curtain and
(the boards. At her home she was, at
Tp ' ell events to the casual observer, more
than a thought too much a mere
mother and British matron, loving to
be Beemly and of good report, shut In
the tower of an unimaginative nature.
Had she not been an actress, she
would have made (such an observer
night have said) an ideal bishop's
lady. Barchester would have been
glad of her. Home Notes.
A SMART LOOKING COAT.
A smart looking coat for a girl of
fourteen seen recently In a shop was
made In moyen age style, of navy
heavyweight cheviot.
The fronts were cut In panel effect,
which started at the armhole seams
Id the front instead ot on the shoul
ders. Below the waist line at back
and sides the material was pleated
and headed by a strapped band, which
was buttoned to the panel.
The closing was double-breasted,
with a rever that could be turned
back or over. There was a high iurn-

THOSE BIG HATS AGAIN.
Huge hats worn by women are still
causing difficulties in theatres. In
London and in New York City women
are wearing hats that are almost a
yard wide. Their appearance in play
houses have led to more than one
legal controversy. One of the latest
has arisen in London, where two
women wearing especially large hats
. entered a theatre. Because a man
'shouted to them, "Remove those
'ridiculous hats!" .they refused to take
if, them off, as they had planned to do,
and were barred from the playhouse.
They have preferred a charge ot as
sault against the manager, and the
decision ot the court is expected to
have an interesting bearing on big
hats. New York Press. v
PLEASANT MANNERS.
- Life would be more livable if more
ot us felt it a duty to be pleasant,
however things might go.
An old woman once told a girl
with a Puritan conscience: "Stop
worrying bo much about the right
, and wrong of things and keep smil
ing, and you will make this world a
better place."
The girl who learns to keep smil
ing . when she would much rather
weep or storm has gained a victory
over herself beyond penance and fast
ing. Be pleasant first from a sense ot
duty, and it will soon become habit.
If Bulklness, deceit, ill temper, nag
ging can get a grip on character, why
not pleasant ways?
If you cultivate a pleasant manner
from no other reason do so through
self-interest. The girl who is agree
able never moans over the world's
treatment. Solomon knew when he
advised the "soft answer" rule for
living. New York Times.
ESCORTS FOR NEWLY WEDS.
I Though it has been said the wed
ding tour is hopelessly out of date
and that one has to read Rowells to
know that there ever was one, this
isn't such a prosy old world after all,
top an observer ot the ways of the
elect sayB the latest idea is for the
best man to provide tickets for the
ej&tire bridal party to accompany the
haopy pair on the first stages of the
wjgddlng trip. The maid ot honor has
her share of the work, for it is "up
to" her to fill the car with flowers
until it looks like a traveling con
servatory. As one bride expressed
it, "The best of It is, the flowers are
sometimes fruit." When MIbs Aspln
wall, of Washington, became the
bride of Lieutenant Comly, ot the
artillery,, a dozen or more warriors
escorted her to the bridal train,
where her maids were awaiting her
with offerings. This sounds agree
able, but It takes a best man with a
well-filled puree. "What do you ex
pect? Again we see the pleasant
things are all for the rich," said a
pessimistic young man, who had to
decline the honor ot being best man
at the wedding of a friend last. week.
New York Press.
ABOUT INSOMNIA.
Some months ago a friend In
formed me that he was a great suf
ferer from sleeplessness. He had exf
perlmented with all manner of reme
dies baths, drugs, exercise, dieting
but could find no relief.
"How about the 'spot on the wall'
cure?" I asked him.
"I haven't heard of that What Is
it?"
"It's very simple," I told him, "yet
very efficacious. I presume that
some light from the street lamp or
the moon usually gets Into your bed
room? Well, where It strikes the
wall you will be pretty sure to And
Bpots that stand out vividly from the
dark background. Select one of these
patches ot brightness, one preferably
not much larger than a silver dollar.
Settle down comfortably In such a
way that It will be within easy range
ot your vision without straining to
see it. Then gaze at It steadily.
"Do not, however, try to stare it
out ot countenance, so to speak. In
stead, let the muscles of your eyes
relax until the spot appears to have
a confused outline. At the same time,
it possible, think of nothing but the
one idea: 'I am going to sleep!'
"Before long, your eyes will begla
to feel tired, and they will gradually
close. Open them, and once more
gaze at the spot on the wall. Again
.they will close. Again open them.
Presently you will And It impossible
to open them, and the next Instant
you will be asleep."
Recently I again met him, and
found him full of enthusiasm.
"That- was a splendid scheme," he
said. "I sleep like a top nowadays
am asleep almost as soon as I touch
the pillow. But I can't for the life ot
Soak one teaBpoonful of gelatine In
me understand why that should have
worked when everything else failed."
It "worked" for the reason that I
had succeeded In lodging in his mind
the idea that It would work. Chronlo
insomnia, Buch as my friend suffered
from, is in many cases nothing more
than a habit, and nay accurately be
described as the result Of a frame of
mind. It is distinctly a psychical
rather .than a physical malady. H.
Addlngton Bruce, in the Delineator.
The "Bllp-on" glove is one of the
most popular kid gloves of to-day.
Gold and silver tissue embroider
ies and foundations are to be pop
ular. Even mosaic buckles appear on the
shoes, to match the buttons on the
chio French gowns.
Irish laces, or any of the heavy
laces, are not as suitable for very
young girls' frocks as are the lighter,
finer laces.
Grown-ups are to wear the poke
bonnets of lingerie as well as straw.
These quaint bonnets are to be worn
with "my lady's" fluffy afternoon
frocks.
Many of the old colors have rap
peared, but with a new face an inde
scribable bloom or ashen tint. Such
effects are seen best in the rich silks
and velvets.
Evening gowns are plainer than
hArfltnfnrA In thft senna nf hplna witlO
out ruffles and frills and pleats, which
are not essential to the beauty of the
dlrectolre models.
Among dress hats the picture
shapes are supreme, and the Gains
borough and all the wide-brimmed
models ot its sort, with plumage as
jich it not richer than ever, are con
spicuous. The new ribbons are most allur
ing. A very wide ribbon, probably
intended primarily for sashes, comes
with a fancy edge suggestive of a pi
cot edge of a generation ago. The
range of colors is unusually large.
Pumps have at last been super
seded by the much more artistic and
comfortable "sailor ties." These are
similar to the pumps, but have one
large eyelet, through which is tied a
loose, flapping bow of wide grosgrain
ribbon.
A novel form of trimming allowed
on even the plainest ot the separate
coats takes the form ot long rouleaux
of cloth which are arranged in
straight lines, alternated here and.
there with a series ot .curve-like
scrolls.;
The new skirts recently imported
from Paris show the modern version
of the pull-back. The simplest mod
el in this style Is gored to AC the fig
ure in the centre front only; the ful
ness being gathered to the belt ilne
across the tides and back.
New, York City. Theslmple blouse
coat that can bo belted or left loose
as preferred is a smart and practical
one that la to be much worn through
out the spring and summer. This
model allows a choice of full sleeves
gathered Into cuffs or of plain ones
of the two-piece sort, and these latter
can be either cut to full or three-quarter
length as preferred. Pongee Is
the material illustrated, and the coat
matches tao Bkirt, but It will be found
available for all suiting and all cloak
ing materials. Chanticleer red and
royal blue serge are much liked for
the separate wraps of mountain and
seashore use, and the model suits
such treatment as well as It does the
costume and more prosaic coats ot
street wear. Any contrasting mate
rial can be used for collar and cuffs,
but this coat Is finished with messa
Hne in matching color; Natural col
ored pongee with revers and cuffs of
bowered cretonne would make an at
tractive summer coat. Small womca
will find the model an excellent one.
The coat is made with fronts and
back. It can be cut off and made
somewhat shorter if preferred. The
full sleeves are made in one piece
each, gathered at upper and lower
edges, but the plain sleeves are cut
with upper and under portions. The
collar is seamed to the neck edge.
The quantity ot material required
for the medium size (sixteen years)
is five and a half yards twenty-seven.
three and three-eighth yards forty-
four or three yards fifty-two incheB
wide with three-quarter yard twenty
one for collar and cuffs. '
Hair Goods Prevail.
Hair goods of all kinds prevail,
some single and of considerable width
and some double, like the Greek filet.
One-piece work apron garments
are a fancy of the present season and
are much, liked made in this way.
This modol is simplicity itself.
Toques Hang Low.
The toques that hang low. over the
right eye ought to look very ridicu
lous, but do not. Possibly-this Is be
cause they are what milliners call
"well-worn," that is, balanced to the
exactitude of a hair and suited in
character to the rest ot the toilette.
But what would be thought of a cook
if on her day off she were to return
in one of these? The policeman on
duty, would certainly keep his eye
upon her.
Peplum.
The straight classic gown known
as the "peplum" has brought into
the shops for Its use foulards in
gown lengths which have two kinds
of material, one polka dotted and
the other plain. The polka dots are
sprinkled over the ground of the dot
ted silk and make a border all
around it. (The silk comes in street
tones.
Tucked Mouse.
The simple tucked blouse is always
a dainty and attractive one. This
model can be made from any mate
rial that Is adapted to lingerie treat
ment, and that means the thin silks
and light weight wools as well as
muslins. It can be made with high or
square neck, and the square neck can
be finished with banding or with a
frill or In any way to suit the fancy.
Merceclzed bntlste with banding of
lace Is the material illustrated, but
muslins Include embroidered and
openwork sorts and all kinds ot fancy
effects, while silks that are adapted
to such a model mean foulards, India
Bilk and a variety of Bilk and cotton
mixtures. The blouse suits the odd
waist and the gown equally well.
The waist Is made with front and
backs. It is tucked to form a yoke
and closed InvtBlbly at the back. The
sleeves are In one piece each gathered
Into cuffs, and these cud can be
made deeper or shorter according to
the length of sleeves desired. When
high neck is used a stock collar is at
tached to the edge.
The quantity ot material required
for the medium size Is four and an
eighth yards twenty-one or twenty
tour, two and three-eighth yards thirty-two
or two and a quarter yards
forty-four .inches wide with three
yards of insertion.
House gown or wrapper to be made
with or without stock collar, with
three-quarter full or plain long
sleeves.
Veiled Sashes.
One of the new touches on lovely
evening frocks for dinners and dances
is the veiled sash. These are of satin
or metal tissue, veiled with chiffon or
exquisite lace. On one gown the sash
was of ivory white satin, veiled with
filmy chiffon In the most entrancing
shade ot pale green. These sashes
are draped and festooned about the
bodice ot the frock and end in long
streamers finished with silk or beaded
fringe.
STUFFED EGG WITH SALMON.
Make a regular salmon salad with
the chopped celery, yolks ot eggs and
mayonnaise; take as many eggs as
desired, put them Into a bath ot boil
ing water and let them stand thirty
five minutes, remove the shells, cut a
slice off the top and bottom (the lat
ter to make it stand), then take out
the yolks and All the whites with the
salad; serve in lettuce leaves, and
over all pour mayonnaise dressing.
L. Von Brockhaus.ln the Boston Post.
CREAM PUFFS.
One cup hot water, one-half cup
butter; boll, and while boiling stir in
one cup of sifted flour. Let Btand un
til cool; then add three unbeaten
eggs and beat steadily for five min
utes. Drop in st ".7ifuls on a hot,
buttered baking tin, and bake about
twenty minutes in a rather brisk
oven. For the cream filling, one cup
milk, one egg, one tablespoon flour,
pinch of salt, one-halt cup sugar;
cook as you would a soft custard, in a
double boiler, and flavor strongly
with vanilla. When cold split the
puffs at one side and fill with the
cream. ' Cream puffs made by this re
cipe lack the insipidity ot those pur
chased at the bake shops. Lena B.
Elllngwood, in the Boston Post.
CREAMED PEACH PIE.
Here is a recipe for creamed peach
pie given by Harper's Bazar: Line a
pie plate with good pastry, lay in
halved canned peaches, sprinkle with
granulated sugar, fit on an upper
crust slit in several places to allow
the steam to escape, and bake. Into
a teacupful of cream stir a pinch of
baking soda and bring to the boiling
point. Add sugar to taste and thick
en with a little cornstarch rubbed
smooth in a tablespoonful ot milk.
Cook, Btlrrlng, until smooth and
thick, then take from the fire, and
while it and the baked pie are still
warm lift the top crust and pour in
the cream sauce. Replace the crust
and let the pie get cold before eat
ing. Sprinkle the top of the pie with
powdered sugar.
PASTA SINTA.
Have ready a deep enamel stew pot
that would contain at least five
quarts. Into this pot place the fol
lowing: One and a halt pounds nice
roast pork, one pound good beef, one-
rhalt pound hamburg steak, three
good sized onions chopped fine, one
large or two small carrots chopped
fine, three tablespoons chopped fat
salt pork and three tablespoons but
ter. Allow the meat to sear for about
thirty minutes. Add about one and a
half quarts of boiling water. This
should cook slowly until meat Is ten
der. When almost done add four
tablespoons catsup and mix well with
the liquid around the meat. Have
ready about one and a half pounds ot
Italian macaroni. Break into pieces
and put in boiling salted water. Cook
until tender. Now that the meat Is
done take out and place on a platter
ready to serve. Drain the macaroni
and put it In the brown liquid. You
should have about one quart of thlo
liquid and enough to mix thoroughly
with the macaroni. Mix thoroughly
and serve with the meat. This Is a
very delicious dish, and is both nour
ishing and healthful and should be
given a good trial, ns it Is well worth
it. Mrs. Joseph Cenedella, in the
Boston Post.
Wring a towel out with cold water
and cover all kinds of roasted meats
to keep moist and retain flavor. 1
The most safe material and also I
the best is copper wire ot the size
portioned to thewelght of the picture.
Moisten the mucilage on the flap ot
the envelope, rub the stc.mp on it and
it will then stick and end a common
difficulty.
In sweeping a carpet, tear up some
old paper, wet and throw around, and
it will be a great help to the dust
from flying.
Keep candles on ice at least twen
ty-four hours before burning. They
will burn much more evenly and !
slowly with this treatment.
When making glue put a little gly
ceiine in it; it increases its adhesive
quality and makes it more elastic. I
One part glycerine to three parts glue.
When preparing a ham for boiling
remove the marrow from the bone;
this does away with the strong taste
sometimes noticed in cold boiled ham. j
In planting poppy seeds, which are
very small, put them in an old salt '
shaker. The task ot sowing them Is
made much easier and they are sownf
evenly,
To cream butter and sugar put the
sugar in the mixing bowl and set in
the oven until warmed through. The
butter will then readily cream with
the sugar with very little labor. 1
In separating the whites from the
yolks ot eggs, if the yolk gets broken
into the white, dip a piece ot clean
cloth in warm water, wring dry, touch
the yolk and it will cling to the cloth.

Hints.
General Outlook One of Improvement
In Pig and Finished Material.
Cleveland, O. The Iron Trade Re
view says:
Some increase in activity and fur
ther price concession have characteris
ed the pig ' iron market during the
week, and there Is a general feeling .
that the bottom has been reached. It
is not expected that there will, how
ever, be any decided advance in
prices. The general feeling; is one of
mild improvement as to both pig iron '
and finished material.
Sales of pig Iron in the east amount
ed to about 15,000 tons, and double
that amount is now pending. There is -increased
Interest in the Chicago dis
trict. In the Pittsburg district sales (
amounted to about 25,000 tons, includ
ing several round lots of basic on
which the price has settled to $15 val
ley. A large steel Interest Is expected
to buy a considerable tonnage of Bes
semer, and it Is believed that the sale
will be made at about $16.25 valley.
Sales of open hearth steel rails)
amounting to 60,000 tons are reported
at Chicago. It is estimated that con
tracts for etructural material placed
this year amount to 600,000 tons, and
contracts pending call for about 150,
000 tons.
New York The Iron Age Bays:
The pig Iron market is reaching a '
level at which an Increasing number
of consumers believe they can safely
contract. The low prices recently
named in connection with early ship- ,
ment have been quoted by Borne pro
ducers for delivery throughout the
year. Other sellers take the position
that blowing out is preferable to large
commitments at such prices.
At $16 at furnace for Bessemer Iron
business In the Pittsburg district has
been stimulated and at $15 for baslo
Iron considerable iron that has been .
overhanging the market has been
moved.
The east has led in the buying of
foundry iron, transactions In the Phil
tdelphla and New York districts and
New England amounting to fully 50,
POO tons. Of this plpemakere took
about 10,000 tons, a stove foundry in
New Jersey 4,200 tons; a machinery
foundry in New England 5,000 tons,
and an implement works 5,000 tons,
while malleable foundries have bought
moderately.
