STRENGTH-WEAKNESS.

The strong man and the weak woman. The sturdy oak and the clinging vine. Women to-day do not expect to be carried around like children. They have serious work to do-hard work-and they must be fitted for it. The ideal medicine to build up weak women is Smith's Green Monu- tain Renovator, because it is made in Vermont of pure, wholesome herbs, redo- lent of the fragrant woods, the green hills and the bracing air. These herbs are so combined as to assist Nature in restoring Strength.

HELEN IS NOT POPULAR.

The Nen Quren of tinty Is Vot Thought Wetl Of by the { animeun People.

Though a woman of great beauty and many charming accomplishments. Queen Ileles of Italy does not prom. ist to become a favorite with the pen- ple Cold and under nstrative. re- served and taciturn rather than ef. fusie, her qualities are calculated to appeal rather to the Piedmontese- highlanders like herself then to the population of the rest of Italy There Is no doubt that the disappointment freely an unkindly expressed by the newspapers of the peninsula regard- ing her failure to fulfill national ex- pectations in the presentation to the kingdom of an heir to the throne has had the efert of raising a sort of harrier of antagonism hetween her- self and the people of her ndopted country. She seems to feel that they resent her childlessness, while they. on the other hand, do not hesitate to express freely the disappoint meut of the dynastie hope which they had based upon the marriage, says a Lun don paper.

Queen Margherita's popularity was a source of strength to her husband as ruler. Even at the moment when. owing to the mistakes, domestic and foreign, of his ministers, he was most unpopular and reviled us "the Aus- trian colonel." she always remnined an object of en much affection on the part of the people of every shade of political opinion that the field daisy was chosen in her honor as the em- blem of a number of political socie ties, some of them. such as the Ita.in irredenta, being hostile alike to the government and to the king But for a queen to be popular in Italy it is necessary that she he of Italian hirth and of Italian disposition. and neither the Montenegrin-born Queen Helen nor yet the French-born Duchess He en of Ansta, who. as the wife of the heir-apparent of the crown. may eventually succeed her as queen, is ever likely to give the same amount of political support to her husband as Queen Margherita was nhje to furnish to the late King Humbert Nor is it probable thit she will ever share to The same legree as her mother-in-law the dutie- - f her husband as ruier Humbert was not riously influenced In many matters hy his consort. es. pecially in connect: n with the triple alliance which the induced him to join.

Neat und Tasteful Adjuncta to the Completion of u House- hold,

The new prairie grass mattings are simply deligthful; they come in soft greens, reds. hiues and ecrus, the natu- ral tints of the long. wiry prairie grass- es of the west. which are now proving sources of iucome to the farmers, Formerly these grasses were supposed to be on unmitigated evil, says Ladies' World.

Prairie grass matting is much heavier than the Chinese and Japanese prod- nets, and much more durable: they all have the same clean and fragrant smell that makes them so acceptable as floor coverings. Prairie grass mat- ting is full yord wide and costs 40 cents per yard.

Never were there shown more beauti- ful lamps than are now made. Espe- cially notable are the piano lamps of welded wrought iron and copper in cnr mine finish. The antique copper and carmine copper are also beautifully combined in other models. The car- mine finish, royal copper is not new, hut It is ever beautiful and has never before commonized.
