In writing things for publication that
the king did not approvo of. Alfonso
has threatened to cut off her allow
ance of ?50,000 a year. Sho has done
two things that horribly shocked the
Spanish court approved in writing of
divorce and woman suffrage.
Now comes ono of tho worst shocks
of all. It Is announced by an Ameri
can author, Harvey J. O'HIgglns, who
is 'editing and revising Infanta Kula
lia's autobiography, that this work
"gives royalty an awful wallop," and
that tho Infant's "viewpoint of nobil
ity and their enpera Is pretty nearly
tho samo that a typical American
would take."
This seems to forecast tho worst,
and poor King Alfonso Is waiting In
trepidation to seo what terrible breech
of royal etiquette his aunt has now
committed.
Dut tho saddest of all of King Al
fonso's sad blows Is that hlo little

been In robust health, and has repeat

FIND GOLD IN
Workmens' Picks Strike Nuggets Hid

Building.
Donvor, Colo. Tho moving of a
building fifty years old, in Brecken
rldge, resulted In workman finding a
rusty coffee pot containing gold nug
Gets worth more than $1,800. Tho
building was being moved to tho rear
of tho lot on which It stood by Honry
Evans, who Intends to erect a modern
brick structure on tho lot. Immediate
ly aftor tho report of tho find hun
dreds ot persons rushed to the scone,
and, becaueo of their activity with
picks and shovels, workmon will not
bo needed to finish the excavation.
The landmark, one of tho oldest
buildings in Summit county, was built
of logs. In tho oarly days it was occu
pied by Edward J. Colllngwoodr'Who
has since moved to Denver. Since
then It has been occupied by various
Individuals and firms as a store,
among them being Q. B, Watson of
Breckenrldgo.
Eyans was advised to tear the an
cient structure down, nud thus save
oxponses, but, because ot sentimental
reasons, he decldc.d to movo it to tho
renr of tho lot and to use the spaco
which It had formerly occupied for
IiIh new building. The moving ot the
building entailed much digging, and
a forco of laborers was put to work.
Ono of tho workmen unearthed tho
pot, and cast tt on a pile of dirt. When
It struck, tho lid flew off, and yellow
gold nuggets rained over the ground.
The contents were weighed and placed
In a local bank.
Evans says that unloss some one
claims the find, tho proceeds will be
devoted toward building his new store.
Enthusiastic fortuno hunters crowded
tho site all afternoon, and Evans, after
watching them for a while, decided to
dispense with tho services ot the
workmen.

MEDIEVALISM OF THE FRENCH
Seeking Miraculous Cures at Grave of
UnoVthodox "Saint" at Lit-

Parle. From tho little villago of
Magny-sur-Tille, near Dijon, there
comes a story reminiscent of tho su

A tew years ago there died in this
villago an old woman named FrancolBe
Souvestre, who had the reputation of
being able to effect mlraclous cures.
Her reputation survived her and her
tomb was reputed also to possess
miraculous properties, which led to Its
becoming a center of pilgrimage while
tho dead woman was unofficially can
onizod by Inhabitants of the surround
ing districts.
Eventually tho Bishop of DIJonwas
compelled to prohibit tho cuU of this
unorthodox "saint," but to no purpose,
and recently tho roport was spread
about that Francolso Souvestro's body
had resisted decay. This led to tho
fanatical believers In the "saint" de
manding and obtaining authorization
for the opening of the grave. Tho ex
humation took place last week In the
presence of two doctors, a notary and

tho last named wearing medals and

When tho coffin was opened the be

Four rooms, with the front and
back stairs on the ground floor, and
four rooms, with a good, comfortablo
bathroom, on the socond floor, briefly
describes the house-plan hero shown.
Tho house is 24 feet G inches wide nnd
44 feet long, without measuring the
porch, and can be built, under favor
able conditions of the market for ma
terial nnd labor, for about $2,750. A
distinctive feature is tho front hall
with its pretty, open, winding stair
way with a closet underneath for
hats and coats, and three doorwayB
which give access to three different
rooms an unusual feature in house
construction. Of course, there are
many long, winding halls that reach
away back and communicate every
where, but they are not economical
of room. In this ense tho hall occu
pies very little spaco; but thox con
venience and artistic effect are much
greater than in most hnlls, although
others may be much moro pretentious.
It is a great thing, In building, to utilize
space to tho best advantage. Measure
ments are arbitrary. In a given
ground space, the fact must be rec
ognized that the enlargement of one
room means that the next one must
be smaller. This hall is large enough
for all practical purposes, and it
leaves plenty of room for tho parlor,
dining room and sitting room.
The parlor is the smallest of the
three, and rightly so. Parlors aro fast
going out of date. Their principal use
has been for weddings and funerals,
and the way some of them are fur
nished leaves a funeral flavor all the
time. The conventional parlor is the
most uncomfortable room in tho
house." Tho children must be exclud
ed, and the men folks aro afraid of
disarranging tho chair tidies or get
ting a chair an inch or two out of its
proper place. The chairs usually are
stiff-backed and uncomfortable, and
too nice for a chair, as their principal
occupation is looking prim and unln-
vitlng, and their only use Is on state
occasions and when ladles call to
criticize and gather new matter for
gossip. This, of course, means' the
conventional parlor that we wero all
familiar with as boys and girls, hand
ed down from our grandmothers' time
and still retained in somo commun
ities. It does not In any way refer to
tho front room in this house-plan, with
its wide opening into tho sitting room,
nnd Its three pleasant windows look
ing out on a nicely-kept lawn through
a well-proportioned porch. Tho shape
and plan of this room offer themselves
easily to artistic decoration. The por
tiere openings, in fact, make the
First Floor Plan.
hall, parlor and Bitting room almost
like ono big room.
Another interesting feature of thlB
plan Is the side entrance to the sit
ting room. ThlB is the most sociable
room in tho house. Taken in connec
tion with tho dining room, it offers
a very comfortablo proposition, the
doors and windows being carefully
placed for light and ventilation; and
the proportions are such that tho
furnlturo Is easily arranged to look
right
There is also a back entrance to
the sitting room, opening onto tho
back porch. This back porch, com
municating with the main part of tho
bouse, Is almost part of the sitting
room in summer time. A small table
of books and a sewing machine aro
often found in Just such places during
the warm months. It Is much bettor
to read or sew in tho open air, when
conditions aro favorable. If the side

suro to be comfortable In the after
noon. If It faces the south, a vino
traltSed up to fwnrd off the direct rays
of the sun will make It almost aB com
forablo. Every sldo porch should have
a vine climbing to tho enyes, for ap
pearance, if for nothing oIbo: but tho
direction should determine whether It
be a heavy, broad-leafed vine for
shade", or ono of tho lighter, prettier
vines for effect.
Thero aro a groat many climbers
that may be used for this purpose, and
It Is easy to select one suitable to the
climate and to the needs of tho situ
ation. Every houso could bo improved
by the addition of a vino somewhere,
but the indiscriminate planting of any
one kind of climber should be dls-

couraged. Such vines as the Dutch
man's pipe are very suitable for veran
das where deep shade is an object,
because tho leaves are large and
heavy. It is Impossible for the sun
to penetrate through a healthy growth
of Dutchman's pipe 'Vine 4oaves. Tho
beauty of this vine is not In the
blossom. The blossom Is odd, and
shaped like a Dutch pipe, but it is In
conspicuous. The heavy foliage Is
the chief attraction.
For front verandas, nothing can be
prettier than the light Madeira vine,
and English ivy where the winters
aro not too severe. There are a
great many annuals that make a
quick growth for screens, but they
are not well calculated for the front
of the house. Vines that climb to tho
roof, leaving stalks baro and a bunch
of foliage at tho top, should be avoid
ed on the front porch. This Is a pe
culiarity of the Virginia creeper, but
It may bo corrected by proper prun
ing. In selecting a house-plan, the direc
tion in which the house faces must
bo taken into consideration. Any
frontage is good if the house is built
to suit.1 It Is Just as easy to select
a plan with tho kitchen on one side
as to have It directly in the back.
The difference In comfort, extending
over a number of years, will well re
pay a little careful consideration on
this point. There nre a great many
things to consider, and this is one
of the most Important, but one that
often Is overlooked. By all means
build a good, suitable kitchen and
give the good wife a chance to enjoy
her working hours.
