QUEEN MARY’S DOUBLE.

The Lovely Crown Princess of Roumania, Who Likes Americans.

CBOWN PRINCESS OF ROUMANTA.

The crown princess of Roumania, granddaughter of Queen Victoria, who is to represent her husband's country at the coronation of her cousin. King George of England, bears a striking resemblance to Queen Mary, although the crown princess is by far the better looking of the two. The crown princess was the Priucess Marie of SaxeCoburg, daughter of the late Prince Alfred of Saxe-Coburg and of the Grand Duchess Marie of Russia, an aunt to the czar. Although the Saxe-Coburg princesses were considered royal beauties, yet none of them made especially good matches. Plncess Marie, the eldest, marrying the insiguificant Ferdinand. heir to the Roumanian throne, shortly after all Europe had been entertained with the story of his love affair with Mile. Helen .Vaceresco. one of the waiting maids of his aunt. Queen Elizabeth of Roumania. Although Princess Marie’s married life with the gloomy and not very popular crown prince has not been a particularly happy one, she commands the admiration and devotion of the Roumanians. In every possible way she has tried to ameliorate their condition, lending her name and Influence to every worthy charity in the Roumanian capital and endeavoring to popularize the national embroideries, laces and jewelry. Princess Marie, unlike Queen Mary, likes Americans and encourages them to visit the Roumanian capital.

THE MASCAT.

A Toy to Take the Place of the Teddy Be*r. The popularity of the Teddy bear was so great that inventors of toys have striven to duplicate its success. The Billiken, which Is rather a grownup’s toy than a child’s plaything, in a measure captured the public. Now comes a novelty known as tbO mascat, which bids fair to fail heir to the popularity of the Teddy bear.

THE LUCKY MASCAT.

The mascat is a comical black cat or kitten, marked with a wfcite horseshoe on Its breast and with a four leafed clover on its paw. it is warranted to be an unfailing luck bringer, and its funny little face never fails to make a hit The mascat is supplied with plump little legs so hinged to the body that the cat may be made to assume any position desired. The distinctive feature of the toy, however, is the tail, which can be hooked to the mascat’s body to form a handle by which the toy may be carried over the arm. This feature of the toy is for the benefit of mothers or nursemaids who take baby out for an airing. A doll or other toy is likely to be dropped, but the mascat hung over the arm can be carried as easily as a small baskeL The mascat is already on the market, and a series of these “carrying toys,” as they are called, are being designed and will soon be introduced by their originator, a well known woman author, who has a family of her own that bss Inspired her with some original ideas In regard to toys and children’s amusements. The smaller mascats. or masklttens, make much appreciated favors for dinners or luncheons, the little figure with a place card pinned to its paw being mirth provoking. Candy boxes and similar novelties are being made in the form of the lucky mascat 1

HINTS FOR THE BUSY HOUSEWIFE

Convenient Window Shelf For Flowerpots.

On the ledge formed by the top part of the lower sash of the window fit a board seven inches wide into each side of the casing by cutting away the ends Place a small bracket at each end of the shelf so that it will fit solldly agalnst the lower window sash to sui>port the weight of the plants. One of the brackets should be nailed to the shelf and the other held In place with a hinge, the reason being that W both were solid the shelf could not Input on the window, as one end must be dropped in place before the other. Such* a shelf will hold all the plants a person can put on it. When not in use It can be removed without marring the casing.

Putting Quicksilver on Mirrors. Pour upon a sheet of tin foil three drams of quicksilver to the square foot of foil. Rub smartly with a pie<e of buckskin until the foil becomes brilliant Lay the glass upon a flat table face downward. Place the foil upon the glass, lay a sheet of paper over the foil and place upon it a block of wood or a piece of marble with a perfectly flat surface. Put upon it sufficient weight to press it down tight. Let it remain in this position a few hours. The foil will adhere to the glass. Potato Yeast. Take six large potatoes, peeled and grated, pour boiling water on and cook same as starch. Let boll a few minutes, then set to cool. When blood warm add one-half capful of sngar. one-third capful of salt, two yeast cakes that have been softened in a little warm water. Cover and set in a warm place to rise. This makes nearly two gallons. Use half yeast and half lukewarm water when making bread. It will keep for months in a cool place. Johnnycake. Take one cupful of eommeal, two cupfnls of white flour, one-half cupful of sugar, salt, one egg, well beaten; one cupful of sweet milk, three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, onequarter of a cupful of melted butter. Stir all together and beat vigorously for a moment. Turn into a well buttered pan and bake in a moderate oven twenty-five minutes.

Wipe dry, place them in a saucepan with a good sized piece of butter and a little boiling water and simmer gently, with frequent basting, until the liquid has been absorbed. Season with pepper, butter and lemon juice, toss and serve on slices of delicately browned toast

Homemade Soap. Five pounds of grease, one can of lye and one tablespoonfui of borax. Dissolve the lye in five cups of cold water. When the grease and lye are blood warm strain both in a pan and stir ten minutes, then pour in a baking pan. The grease must be tried out nicely and when cold weighed. Be careful about the lye. as it is apt to burn the hands.

Rice Pudding. Four cupfuls of cold boiled rice, two cupfuls of sugar, two cupfuls of dried apricots, one cupful of boiling water. Arrange in layers, first rice, then fruit, sugar, and so on, having rice on top. Pour boiling water over the top and bake one hour covered closely. Serve with cream or milk. Irish Mom Blancmange. One cupful moss nicely washed and soaked in water two hours, then remove moss from water and simmer in one quart of milk about one hour.. Then strain through a fine sieve and add flavoring if desired. Pour into molds to harden and serve with sugar and cream. Mending Granite Ware. To successfully mend granite ware and porcelain lined pans and cooking utensils, mix litharge and glycerin to consistency of putty and apply to worn surface or holes. Let stand until hardened and it will have received a new lease of life. Baked Haah. Chop up fine enough cold meat to fill one cup and mix It with two cupfuls of boiled rice, two cupfuls of stewed tomatoes and one-half cupful of breadcrumbs. . Season with salt, pepper and butter and bake for half an hour. Maple Sirup Cake. Cream one-half pound of butter with two cupfuls of sugar, add four well beaten eggs, two cupfuls of maple sirup, one cupful of milk, a pinch of salt, six cupfuls of flour and nutmeg to flavor.

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh That Contain Mercury As mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, 0., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly on the mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall’s Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. Sold by Druggists. Price 75c per bottle. Take Hall’s Family Pills for constipation.
