ATTORNEY AT LAW Office over City Drug Store Miles Block Entertaining Royalty. Nothing puts a bigger feather in the cap of a society hostess, says the London Saturday Journal, or at the same time causes her more: anxious cares and thought rather than mere expenditure than the presence at one of her dinners or dances in the huge Mayfair mansion of a member of the royal family—most of all the king and queen. The entertaining of royalty is one of the most delicate triumphs the society woman, whether she be a duchess or merely a millionairess. can achieve. It has a code of etiquette all to itself—a code which must be rigidly observed or no hope is there of ever securing another visit from a’ royal guest of the reigning house. The number of titled and untitled guests bidden to meet the sovereign at, say, a dinner party is strictly limited and of course highly select. On one oc- casion $20,000 was spent by a hostess in entertaining a crowned head for a week end, while another example is that of a certain baronet who had a marble staircase put in his house sole- ly because of an approaching ' visit from the late king. A Remarkable Escape. During the reign of terror in Paris one of the most remarkable escapes was that of M. de Chateaubrun. He was sent to execution with twenty other prisoners, but after the fifteenth head had fallen the guillotine got out of order and a workman was sent for to repair it. The six remaining vic- tims were left standing in front of .the machines with their hands tied behind them. A French crowd is very cu- rious, and the people kept pressing forward to see the man arranging the guillotine. By degrees M. de Chateau- brun, who was to the rear of his com- panions, found himself in the front line of the spectators, then in the sec- ond and finally well behind those who had come to see his head cut off. Be- fore the men could get the guillotine in working order night began to fall, and M. de Chateaubrun slipped away. ‘When in the Champs Elysees he told a man that a wag had tied his hands and robbed him of his hat, and this simple individual set him free. A few days later M. de Chateaubrun escaped from France. Due Precautions. In a town in Georgia there was an old preacher whose knowledge of the world was not wide nor deep, but who conceived it to be a place where, if one ‘should trust his fellow men, he should at the same time keep an eye on his own interests. One hot day he pulled off his coat and preached a vigorous sermon under the pines in his shirt sleeves. At the close of the open air service one of his admirers approached him and said regretfully: “I don’t suppose you knew that the editor of one of the big New York Sunday papers was here when you pulled off your coat.” “I reckon I knew it well, for I'd been told of it,” said the preacher calmly. “I don’t believé he’s as bad as he might be, and anyway I put my ceat on the chair close by and had it right under my eye all the time.”—Youth’s Companion. Moro Story of the Flood. The legend of the flood as told by the Moros is as follows: “When the forty days and nights of rain came No and his family got'into a box. One pair of each sort of bird and beast also came in. Men who were busy with their ordinary occupa- tions and did not enter the box were overtaken by the flood. Those who ran to the mountains became mon- keys; those who ran to the water, fish. The, Chinaman changed to a hornbill. | A woman who was eating the fruit of a seaweed and would not stop was changed into a fish called a dugong, and her limbs can still be seen under its skin.” Mara’s Voice. Mme. Mara had a voice that extend- : ed from middle G to E in alt and was one of the most facile and flexible ever known. She delighted in the florid music of Hasse, Graun, Benda, Jom- melli, Pergalese, Porpora, Sacchini and others of that school and with the ut- most ease executed passages that are now consigned to -solo instruments, such as the violin and flute. She held the stage from 1771 to 1802, with an occasional appearance after the latter date. His Bedtime. “When do you wind your watch,” asked the man with the bulging brow— “morning or évening?; “Generally in‘the morning,” answer- ed the man with the bulbous nose. “I always wind mine just before go to bed.” “Well—er—so do I.”—Chicago Trib- une. What She Would Do. “Jéhnnie, dear,” said his mother, who was trying to inculcate a lesson in in- dustry, “what do you suppose mamma would.do for you if you should come to her some day and tell her that you loved your studies?” “Lick me for telling a falsehood,” said dear little Johnnie with the frankness of youth. A Quick Return Business. ' “You said you were going into some business that would bring you quick returns,” said a young fellow to his chum. “I did,” was the answer. “I am send- ing manuscripts to the magazines.” A Nice Bull. An Irishman, quarreling with an Englishman, told him if he didn’t hold § his tongue ‘he would “break his im- penetrable head - and let the _bmins out of his empty skull.” s i s —— | worst game law violators in the Aai- Tricking @ Game Warden. " When a game warden bought seven pounds of meat and paid a dollar a pound for it he thought he was get- ting some pretty convincing evidence against a man in Herkimer county whom he supposed to be 'a chronic' violator of the game law. The pro- tector found this particular piece of meat’in an icehouse one hot August day, and he spotteqd it for venison. “What will you take for that chunk of meat?’ he asked the owner. “That’s a tender piece of meat,” re- plied the woodsman, with a wink at hy the stranger, “and meat is dear way back up here. I wouldn’t part with'it for less ’n a dollar a pound.” “Well, give me a pound.” \-“Nope; couldn’t do that. It would spile the piece for cookin' to do that.” The game warden had to take the whole thing, and be paid $7 for it, sat- isfied that he had caught one of the rondacks. Down to Albany he sent the meat for the forest, fish and game commission to analyze to prove it ven- ison.. But it wasn't. It was veal The backwoodsmen tell the story as | one of the best jokes ever played on a game protector.—New York Tribune. Columns of St. Mark. Two mermorable granite columns, known as the columns of St. Mark, brought from the Holy Land in 1120 and standing in front of the quay and landing steps of the Piazzeta, have been associated with the fortunes of Venice for many years. At first they lay prostrate for a long time, while no one would undertake to raise them. But a reward offered by the doge at length induced one Nicolo Barratiero (Nick the Blackleg) to offer his serv- ices. He succeeded and claimed as his reward the privilege of carrying on between the columns games of chance, elsewhere prohibited by law. To neutralize this as much as possible it was enacted that all public execu- tions should take place on the same spot. One column is surmounted by the Lion of St. Mark. The other car- ries a fine figure of St. Theodore, the. patron saint of the city, who stands™ in this vicinity. especially for this exhibit. for personal use, or 315 Minnesota Ave. We are Eg]\fl:fi:xng SANTA CLAUS WINDOW ADVERTISED IN THIS WEEK’S SATURDAY EDENING POST showx:ng an extraordinary assortment of Robeson “Shur-Edge” Pocket Knives. ‘This #s the most interesting Cutlery display ever made It includes fifteen new and exclusive patterns designed You’re sure to find the knife that just suits your fancy FOR A CHRISTMAS GIFT GIVEN HARDWARE CO. Phone 57 upon a crocodile and with sword and buckler gives token that the motto of Venice is “Defense, Not Defiance.” Betrothals In Germany. In Germany an elaborate method of annouuncing the betrothal practically puts an end to all breach of promise cases. As soon as a couple become engaged the pair visit the town hall and declare their willingness to marry and sign. with witnesses, a series of documents which render a change of mind on the man’s part practically out of the question. When either party wishes to withdraw from this agree- ment the pair again visit the town hall and additional documents are formally signed. witnessed and sealed. The au- thorities then determine the question of compensadon tor injured feelings, The G You ever saw. Montevideo English.

Englishmen are rather fond of pok- ing fun at those parts of Great Britain, where other than the: Anglo-Saxon ele- ment is dominant, and a favorite sub- Jjet for jest is the prevalence of the Jones family in Wales. One of the colleges of Oxford univer- sity was much resorted to by Welsh- men. A man from another college s looking for a friend went into its quad- PrlCC- rangle and shouted, “Jones!” » All the windows looking on the quad COSt. rangle fiew open. “l mean John Jones,” said the searcher. Half the windows closed. “I mean the John Jones who has 8 toothbrush,” he explained. All the windows closed but one.— Topeka State Journal. Regular price $10 Now ........... A Stitch of Pain.
