Teetotalism Among Old World Rulers. Abstinence of Sovereigns Traced to Moth er's Influence. The announcement by the pres? that the president of the United States and members of his cabinet are opposed to the use of liquor at the White House, or at social func tions, has occasioned much discus sion, favorable and otherwise, in both the American and foreign pa pers. In an article entitled, "Tee totalers Now on Many Thrones," by an "Ex Attache," recently pub lished in the Chicago Tribune, an interesting list of sovereigns who are abstainers is given. According to this writer teetotalism io the rule rather than the exception among the rulers of the old world. He says that ''Alfonso XIII of Spain and his mother. Queen Christina, are both total abstainers. So, too, is Victor Emmanuel III of Italy, as Queen Wilhelmina of Holland, and her mother, Queen Emma, the two queens of Sweden and King Gustavus Adolphus, Czar Ferdinand of Bulgaria, and George V". of Great Britain." "In Sweden." explains the writer, "the present king and his consort have undoubtedly been influenced in becoming teetotalers by his moth er, the dowager Queen Sophia, who for over fortv years has been the most powerful supporter and advocate of the temp?rance move ment in Scandinavia." The House by the Side of the Road. There are hermit souls that live with drawn In the place of their self-content; ' * There are souls like stars that dwell apart, In a fcllowless firmament There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths Where highway never ran But let me live by the side of the road. And be a friend to man. I see from my house by the side of the road, By the sidt of the highway of life, The men who press with the ardor of hope, The men who are faint with the strife; But I turn not away from their smiles nor their tears, " Both parts or" an infinite plan; Let me live in mv house by the side of the road. And be a friend to man. I know there are brook-giaddening meadows ahead And mountains of wearisome height, That the road passes on through the long afternoon, And stretches away to the night, But still I rejoice when the travellers rejoice, And weep with strangers that moan, Nor live in my house by the side of the road Like a man who dwella alone. Let me live in my house by the side of the road. Where the race of men go by, They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong. Wise, foolish -so am I. Then why should I sit in the scorner's seat, Or hurl the cynic's ban? Let me live in my house by the side of the road. And be a friend to man. -Sam. Walter tFoss, in the Golden Age.

Living Rooms In Which the Women Spend Almost the Whole of Their Time Should Be Made a? Pretty as Possible, The wife is the mainstay of the entire family, but too often she is painfully neglected.and her natural yearning for comfort and beauty in her home life ls never satisfied. All our troubles are unloaded upon moth er and her hands are always strong enough to sustain us and her heart big enough co take in all our sorrows. The very least we can do is to let the sunlight of the sky into her home, and the light of our love into her heart. Too many of our homes In the country lack the sunlight-not the sunlight from the sky. perhaps, but the sunlight of comfort and beauty. We put too much money into the barns, live stock and shiny red ma chinery and not enough in the home, where mother and the girls must live and provide for the wants of the en tire family. The men and boys are out-of-doors all the time in the summer, except when eating and sleeping, and during the evenings in winter, and may not feet the absence of pictures and car pets and hangings and the little deco rations that go to make a home rest ful and satisfying as much as do the women-folks. Appreciation of these things is al most certainly a matter of education even in men and boys. If they are brought up In a home whole walls are bare of pictures, whose floors are uncovered and where books and magazines and newspapers are unknown, they may in time be come resigned in a way to its discom forts, knowing no better. But thc lack of comfort and beauty in a home ls a distinct loss in the softening and purifying Influence upon character. Laura J. Van Benthuysen.
