KING AND QUEEN RECEIVE CROWNS Ceremony of Medieval Splendor Mark English Coronation.?Unsurpassed Was Brilliant Seene. London, June 22.?On this day of George V, king of the United King dom of Great Britian and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond seas, nothing has been wanting to make the solemn and impressive ceremony one long to bo remembered not only throughout the country but In every corner of the great empire. Never before in history has the im perial note been struck In such a magnificent manner, its imperial as spect undoubtedly has been the most remarkable feature of the coronation. George V, more than any sovereign of tbe past represents the embodiment of tiie imperial idea. He only of all his predecc&sors on the throne travel ed through Iiis vast dominions and thus acquainted himself at first band with the needs and aspirations of all the various peoples of Iiis empire. Then by happy coincidence the Ira iperlnl conference sitting :it the time of the coronation enabled all the rep resentatives of the king's overseas do minions to participate In the signifi cant ceremony at the opening of the new reign, which, if the hopes of those attending the conference bear fruit, will bring all parts of the empire into closer and moro intimate relations. The great state pageant was car ried through with dignity and Impres siveness and made a deep Impression upon all those privileged to witness it, and it was accompanied by an out burst of loyalty throughout (lie king dom tbat might appear surprising at a period in the world's history when thrones i>o longer appear to be estab lished on the unrest foundations. The remotest suburbs of the great city and every village In the land to night gave evidence of devotion and loyaHy to the throne. Not the humb lest home but displayed a fiag or il luminated device, portraits of the king and queen and a loyal motto. The stirring event:- of the day were carried through without hitch or seri ous accident or. any kind. Tbe weath er was less favorable than had been hoped for, but the rain was not suf ficient to detract seriously from the splendor of t he pageantry. Charles P. Taft, who had a sea' with ills Wife and daughter beside J. Pledpont Morgan over the south cboir, from which he had a splendid view of the a hole ceremony in the abbey, was greatly Impressed. "It. was one of the greatest page ants of the world," be said. "I never with sucb Impressivcness as hero in say anything like it. No other coun try in my opinion could crown a king London." Perhaps never in history, certain ly never In tin; experience of any per son who witnessed it, h;is there been an historic scene so magnificent as the ancient abbey of Westminister pre sented, when George V, and Quecifc Mary were seated in state upon their thrones. All who attended the crowning of Edward VII agreed that today's cere mony surpassed that spectacle In every circumstances of stately stage-setting, of solemn ritual, inspiring music, the host of royal and eminent personages, the wonderful display of rich uni forms, bright gowns, marvelous jew els, which combined to create an im pression of awe and admiration.

HOW TO OBTAIN SANITARY MILK. Clcmson Krtenslon Work?Article xllv. ? Very few of the consumer:; of milk give thought as to where the milk they drink comes from or under what conditions it was produced. So long as it has no bad color, taste, or smell they drink and are satisfied. If the purity of milk could be judg ed by the above standard, the milk Inspector would have no work and there would be no such office. It is a sad fact, however, that such a stand ard will not hold good, as milk may have no bad taste, color, or odor and yet be very dangerous to the health. Many of the outbreaks of typhoid fev er, scarlet fever, dysentery, and other diseases can be traced to the milk sup ply. What then is sanitary milk. It is milk that is produced by healthy cows, and which is handled in a cleanly man ner from the time it is drawn until it is consumed. To ho healthy the cow should not only show no outward signs of disease, but should >;ive no reaction when tested for tuberculosis. She should be kopt clean and her udder should be washed well before each milking. The milker should milk witli dry hands and not follow t*lie bad practice of dipping the fingers into the milk while milking. The milker should not, be allowed to handle the milk at all if there should be a case of Contagious disease in his home. As soon as the milking is finished the milk should be removed from the barn and at once strained through a good grade of cheese cloth. If it is to be sold at retail, it should be cool ed and bottled. If it is to he kept, for home use, it should be put aside in as cool a place as possible and away from anything.that has much odor. Milk will very quickly absorb th.lor of meat, vegetable etc., If kept near" such. ISspecjal care should 1)0 given at Ibis season to the milk that is fed to babies and children. Much of the stomach troubles could be avoided if only clean milk was given them to drink. \ ' Prof. J. M. Burgess. liln in.mii mihI nioOll nisenxc?

Lack of enjoyment of certain practical de vices has retarded the progress of some of these papers, the publishers of which apply intelligence and en terprise to their eiTorts at bringing satisfaction to their readers. Sev eral of the papers, it is only fair to remark, have for years been getting out excellent issues, being located in the more densely populated sections where the Held is also more fertile through the higher standards of edu cation than obtained iu some other sections. Since they have equipped their shops witli time and labor saving machines, these papers have commenced to dis card the stereoptyped "plate-matter," which does not carry enough of the homeflavor and has other serious faults which are difficult of correction, although it must be confessed that they have served worthy purposes in their day. The space occupied in the past by this matter of relatively small interest and importance is being given over to products of the edi tors and their assistants, there be ing an Increasing quantity of de sirable matter where previously near ly all individuality was effectually obscured, the same news being served to a large number. These evidence of mterprlse and of laudable desire to furnish a superior article strongly in dicate that the newspapers are sacur ?ig a stronger purchase in their ter ritory and that their subscribers are calling for helpful changes of the sys tem. The educative value of the newspa per is great and it is an encouraging sign and a promise of genuine, better ment that argurs well for the com monwealth when the quality of the county press is improved.
