And the 'Mark ' ematrollinag care Fite in with his gay mood. When the time comes to let pedestrians by—as he sees that it does often—it takes not the powerful upward thrust of the arm that is needed to breast tra,r'c on !:'roadway or Fifth Avenue, but only the slight waving of two author- itative, friendly fingers. His bounty to the pedestrians has a high, impartial quality. Men and boys, being unimportant and able to fend for themselves anyway, get few favors, of course, except when they happen to be fathers escorted by small daughters; but women, whatever the degree of dignity they can present, are his special charges. If it is one of the grand survivors of the Vic- torian era who receives his tribute, her very dignity demands formal word of thanks to show she is con- scious of being entitled to it, and he! nod is returned with a bow and broad smile and a quick touch of the cap. If the thin line of pedestrians in- cludes a pair of flappers, who have been giggling to each other just be- fore but who pass him with solemnity, one with eyes resolutely on the ground the other gazing intently at the re- mote horizon, he enjoys them 'equally well. Even the shy woman in a costume of two decades ago, who has long since given up hope of special mas- culine attention and who approaches the crossing dubiously in a long semi- circle, finds that she, too, has only a brief wait before she is noticed and proffered the right of way. And nursemaids with baby carriages —let it be recorded in support of the old legend, which everybody repeats but few believe—have infallible pass- ports. They barely turn into the path leading to the crossing before the afternoon's benevolent protector starts parting his little traffic sea, and when the passage is arranged he basks in a gaze that, though it comes from a single pair of eyes, counts for more than all the gazes Broadway can pro- duce, even when the throngs are at a high tide. not tit* &ally duty.

Their one thought is no longer, if it ever was, to secure a jail sentence for ev- eryone they bring before the courts. Indeed, in the case of young and first o nders, a jail sentence should only be resorted to when all corrective methods fail. More than one speak• er at the convention praised the Eng- lish probationary system which often by avoiding the stigma of a forma conviction and through the friendly help of a capable probation o :' cer, prevented the youth who had slipped a bit from continuing in a life of crime. The plan of a on. Ernest La- pointe, minister of justice, for the building of separate prison buildings in which youthful and first offenders would be segregated also came in for favorable comment. 11 Use the meat of one cooked chick- en, cut in good sized pieces, not minc- ed as so many salad makers meler. Add one good sized cucumber, chop- ped, 1 cupful of walnut meats, 1 can of tiny French peas and 3 cupfuls of celery cut in cubes. Toss together and dress with mayonnaise All ingredients should be crisp and cold and the plates chilled. The platter for the chicken salad should be large enough so that it will not look crowded. The salad should be heaped in the centre and garnish- ed with mayonnaise and a few slices of stuffed olives. On the border of crisp lettuce leaves arrange halves of .devilled eggs. (Devilled Eggs. Four hard -cooked eggs, two table- spoonfuls minced sweet pepper, salt and cayenne, 4 tablespoonfuls grated cream cheese, 2 tablespoonfuls met- ed butter. Slice the eggs into halves length- wise and carefully remove the yolks. Work into a paste with the butter, minced peppers and the cheese. Sea son with salt and a bit of cayenne.

It has always seemed to us living in a palace would be much like living in the city hall; and we are glad to have this impression confirmed by the memoirs of Eugene Ketterl, for many years valet of Franz Josef, Empercr of Austria. For all his power and wealth he had fewer real comforts than the average Canadian clerk. The tragedies which dogged his career are of course, notorious, and no one ever thought that he was really happy. But it was taken for granted that the emporer, used to pomp and the cere- monials into which he was born, would have at least found comfort when he was not before the pudic eye. But comfort he never had and in the gayest capital in Europe he lived in a narrow and niggardly man- ner that would have astounded his subjects if they could have known. We learn, for instance, that neither in the imperial palace of Schoenbrun nor in Ischl, his summer resident:e,was there such a thing as a bathroom. In the palace there was not even running hot water. In the palace there was just three rooms which the emperor used, and they were of the kind where the less principled of Austrian housewives would keep her domestic servants. They were called a bedroom, study and drawing -room. Here 'his every- day life was spent, and it migt t not be more than four or five times a year when he saw the noble rooms of the palace which were occupied only on the occasion of some state dinner The emperor slept on an iron bed- stead. Between the bedroom and study there was a corridor wide enough to serve as a •bathroom, and in this was installed the old-fashioned wooden tub in which the emperor would take his morning scrubbing. It was so awkwardly placed and so uncomfortable that the emperor was rarely without a bruise or a scratch to testify to his morning bout with. the tub. After he rose he had to wait until his valet heated the water for the bath on a portable electric stove At 3.30 each morning, winter and summer, it was the valet's business to awake the emperor, saying: "1 throw myself at the feet of your majesty and wish you a good morning." As invariable as the morning bath was the morning encounter with the mas• seur. This functionary finding it in convenient to arise at such an un• earthly hour preferred to regard the exercise as the end, rather than the beginning of the day's work, and with this in view used to sit up all night drinking. Frequently he would be half intoxicated when he presented himself to the emperor, who tolerated his dissipation for a long time. But once the masseur was so far gone that to prevent himself from falling he grabbed Franz Josef by the neck. Thereupon the dignity of the em- peror asserted itself and seizing the masseur by the shoulder he led )lien to the door and ordered a more tem- perate successor. After the bath the emperor quickly got into his clothes and was ready to receive Dr. Kerzl, his life-long court physician, who look- ed vigilantly after his health. The next item was the breakfast, of coffee, rolls, butter and ham. On fast days the ham was omitted. From then to noon he worked without interruption, seeing his advisers, signing state doc- uments and hearing reports and dis- cussions of all kinds. The luncheon consisted of soup. meat and dessert. On one occasion when he was in Budapest the first day's programme called for ceaseless activity from breakfast until four o'clock in the afternoon. His valet suggested to him that in the circum- stances it would be wise if he forti- fied himself with a second breakfast at 10 o'clock, there being them a slight interval. The emperor replied, "Would it really be possible to have some- thing to eat at such an unusual hour? Would it not be embarrassing for the cook?" His majesty was indifferent to what he ate and the royal chefs got away almost with murder. On one occasion he found a cockroach in his roll and his patience was ex- hausted. The cook was discharged, but in a short time was reinstated. His dinners were also frugal, but on the occasions when Mme. Catharine Schratt, the popular actress, and especial friend of the emperor, was to dine with him they would be rather gayer than usual, and served in his little drawing -room. But they were half spoiled by the fact that they al- ways had to be reheated, the royal stoves and ovens being some hundred yards off in another part of the building. If Mme. ,Schratt had been living at the palace instead of next door, it is to be presumed that she would have given attention to the old man's corn - forts. His wardrobe was shabby. He had one fur coat given him many years earlier by the Emperor of Rus- sia. Long after it had become moth- eaten, he declined to buy another, be- cause fur coats were expe1riaive. When he had to replace it he chose a coat of cheaper fur. The uniforms were numerous enough. His civilian outfit was made up of an old Prince Albert frock, considerably the worse for wear, two busing snits and a hunt-. PARENTAL CONTROL HAS POWER TO REDUCE CRIME GREATLY Police forces throughout Canada find that the problem of the juvenile delinquent and its corollary, the pre- vention of crime, become more com- plex. There are fluctuations in re- spect to statistics in various locali- ties, but the problem as a whole of- fers growing difficulties. This in the face of legislation and the efforts by social organizations designed to grapple with it. In past years the middle-aged and old offenders, and especially the re- cidivist, were the chief concerns of law enforcement officials. To -day it is the youthful offenders, up to about 25 years of age, who create the dif- ficulty for which no satisfactory solu- tion has yet been offered. The youth- ful criminal had a large part in' the papers and discussions at the recent convention of the Chief Constables' Association of Canada. The follow- ing opinions from some of the pap- ers show the various angles of ap- proach to the problem. C. A. Steeves, police magistrate of Moncton, N. B., declared that the most delicate problem which faced him or any other magistrate was how to deal with the younger people brought before the court. Every case had to be dealt with according to its own merits; there could be no hard and fast rules or scale of pun- ishment. In discussing causes of crime, Magistrate Steeves was not prepared to condemn the movies or the skating rink as such, but thought that a young girl who told him that she went to five shows a week, with an occasional evening at the rink, was rather overdoing it. Nor was he of the opinion that joy -rides last- ing until the early morning hours were good for the mental, moral or physical life of the community. Such excesses he attributed to a lack of parental oversight, a failure to im- press upon the young people the fact that one course is right and will lead to happiness, and another is wrong and will lead to punishment and dis- grace. Chief J. P. Smith, of Walkerville, Ont., also condemned the tendency of these days to do away with the old family circle and all the good influ- ences which it carried. The home. he said, is the backbone of the nation, and the instruction which the boys and girls receive in the home will largely determine their course in af- ter life. But not only the home influ- enced them. Chief Smith emphasiz- ed the impression made on young minds by the literature of the times, and spoke strongly in favor of a censor board which would regulate the periodicals and hooks and news stands. Many such publications, most of which are imported, told stories and displayed illustrating glorifying the gunman and other en- emies of society. Public condemna- tion of books by courts or anti -vice clubs was worse than useless, only provoking interest and curiosity in the publication. The work should be done silently by a censoring agency which would prevent the objectionable from reaching the public at all. Inspector E. W. Ravin of the Al- berta provincial police stressed the fact that there are a greater number of convicted criminals under the age of 30 than there are over that age, and that the number between 17 and 23 is alarming. Like Magistrate Steeves, and in almost the same words, he named the fundamental cause as "lack of parental control." He thought that th'h average boy, from public school days up, had too much sparetime on his hands for his own good, and advocated more organ- ized athletics for after-school hours. It was very seldom that a boy who had previously been prominent in athletics fell into the hands of the police, for he had been trained in self- discipline and restratitet. The papeii o and discussions at the cein'ventiost iretlieated that the police fully realize taut the >npion`ehenrrion rind conviction Of the lareagdoer is For Piquante Stuffed Eggs. Add to the mashed yolks of eight hard -cooked eggs, 3 strips of finely chopped cooked bacon, onion juice, 2 tablespoonfuls of chili sauce or cat- sup, 1 teaspoonful of tarragon vine- gar, salt, paprika and mayonnaise to make a smooth paste. Stuff the egg whites with this mixture. Finely chop- ped shrimps may be substituted fur the ibacon. Cucumber and Sweetbread Salad. Use equal parts of diced, chilled cucumber and cooked sweetbread, both of which should be liberally moistened with cream mayonnaise. Serve on crisp lettuce. If a less ex- pensive salad is desired, try latticed cucumbers, sliced tomatoes and finely shredded green pepper.

Certainly not. The expense of living in such a place would be too great. It would Bost you too much to get to your sourc& of supply, aside from the prices which you might be obliged to pay in another city. Besides, merchants in these other cities would not know you, trust you and place confidence in you. The merchant is necessary in the community. ,Ills is your servant. He is a community leader. He supports your schools, churches and civic institutions and gives you the advantage of a market at your very door. For all this your merchant is entitled to your support. If he is necessary to the community he is necessary to you, and it is your duty to buy his goods and enable him to continue business. In supporting your merchant you are also supporting yourself. Every dollar you spend in Seaforth adds to the progress of your town and every dollar you spend somewhere else retards the success of Seaforth. People of this town want to live in a prosperous com- munity. They have a sensation of pride when someone refers to it as a "live town." It is a "live town" only because of the support of its residents. If everyone were to suddenly decide to buy nothing here, the town would not last a year. People would move away. As long as the residents continue to support local merchants, the town will prosper. You are a resident.

All of these, through the neglect of servants, were never smart looking. The emperor's parsi- mony was also responsible for his rather frowsy appearance. Nor was he a generous boy friend to Mme. Schratt, for when she used to visit him at Ischl in the summer the state of her finances made it necessary for her to travel third-class on an aecom- modation train in company with the tradesmen and peasants. VETERAN PRESS AGENT IS DEXTER FELLOWS Mr. Dexter Fellows was always more or less stage struck. As a youngster he used to hang around the town opera house, carrying the luggage of the visiting stars to and from the hotels, opening up the piano for the musical artists and holding the horse upon which the Indian chieftain would lead the ballyhoo pro- cession through the streets. He was recently in Toronto with the big cir- cus for which he has been press agesit for several years past, the lastof the old-timers who had friends in every newspaper office from Maine to California and from St. John to Van- couver. Mr. Fellows' original efforts to uplift the drama and popularize circuses was never rewarded by much more than an opportunity to see the show for nothing, and on this ac• count he joined a team whose bind - ten it was to go through the coun- try selling eihing like trading stamps. One day he looked dun a theatrical p5f* an saran a Itou s 1 . e were wanted to work for Pawnee Bill's Wild West show. He replied, and then forgot about it. He was in a Brattleboro, Vermont hotel, one morning several weeks lat- er when he was thrilled to receive a letter from the circus, and d•amb- founded to learn that he had been appointed press agent. "Do you know who that man was who just went out?" asked the clerk, breakig in on his silent ecstasies. "I do not," said Mr. Fellows, "Why should I?" "Well, said the clerk, "that was Rudyard Kipling," and the lad rushed to the door to get a view of the back of the retreating celebrity. It was the first one he had ever seen, if we except the theatrical celebrities who might be expected to appear in a small New England town, and Mr. Fellows was to see many more of them as the years took him to various parts of the world. One of the greatest of them was, in the loyal opinion of Mr. Fellows, Buffalo Bill, with whom he travelled for years. Col. Cody was generous to a fault, even chivalrous. On one occasion his temper flared out and he knocked down a man much older than himself. He immediate- ly put his arms around hien and apologized. "Hie was," said .Mr. Fellows, "tate most modest man about things of which he had the right to be protid, and the vainest man about trifling things that I ever kllew.f° ae was with Buffalo Bill when hie circus vis • ited London for the secant thne and helped receive King Edvtard f Qaneen Alexariidra and the present king and queen Of England Wildri ago visited the entertainment. The fatrnbtaia wild west show was, perhaps, the first of its kind ever seen in Europe and there was hardly a performance which some distinguished person did not attend. Baden-Powell and Buller called upon Buffalo Bill whom they received as a brother -in -arms. Baden-Powell in his hook on scouting paid high tribute to Cody. It used to be whispered that Buffalo Bill was more or less a drug -- store cowboy, but he hal long and varied fighting experience. Among the frontier officers of the United States regular army he was held in the highest respect, and with them and other plainsmen he would talk by the hour of his scouting experi- ences, but though he was by no means indifferent to the value of publicity, it was difficult to get him to talk about his fights to newspapermen. Only on one memorable occasion did he depart from this practice. It was in England, and a number of Eng- lish reporters were being entertain- ed. One of them asked him about his fight with Yellow Hand. He walked to a safe In his office, opened it, and removed a metal case. This he open- ed, and drawing forth its contents spread on the table the scalp with the long hair attached of the famous Indian. As a figure on horseback Mr. Fel- lows thinks that Buffalo ]Bill was the most striking picture he ever savr, an opinion with which many will agree. They will also agree with the Ameri- can newspaper writer who said "iBuf- f'alo Bill poses, but he poses impec- cably." He was a perfect horseman and a dead shot though it is curious to note that tans plainisman and In- dian tuber was• probably less expert with the rifle than Dr. Carver, who was a mere dentist and had never seen a shot fired in anger. There was once in Cody's possession a pic- ture that is said to have been the only one ever painted by Rosa Bon- heur which contained a recognizable human face. It was a portrait of himself' 'which! the famouls woman painter had done for him when he visited France. The Buffalo Bill wild west show, by the way, came into ex- istence almost spontaneously. Buf- falo Bill was giving an Independence day show for a lot of his friends as his Nebraska ranch, and they were so impressed with the spectacle that they told him he should organize it and put it on the road. He accepted the idea and the cowboy whoopee party thus begot one of the greatest entertainments of modern times. Mr. Fellows, urged by Irvin Cobb and other newispaper friends, became advance agent for Jim Europe when that celebrated negro organized the concert tour with the band which had been built up to assist negro recruit- ing in the late war. An interpreter of jazz and ,spirituels, this band wan incomparable, and its concert tour promised to create a sensation. Un- fortunately, traged]y blighted the en- terprise. In Boston, Europe had oc- casion to rebuke a snare -drum player named Steve Wright, who drew a penknife from his pocket and lunged) at him. A spectator tried to catch his hand and the blow was deflected, the knife severipg the jugular velar and Jim Europe fell to the floor. Ere died a short ,time afterward, and his slayer is spending the rest of his life in a Massachusetts prito'n. 1, 1 hF a,
