Though Princess Mary 1s very fond of jewelry she is not allowed to wear ADy ornament except a string of per. fectly matched pearls on state occa: glons and a little gold chain and locket which contains a plece of white heather in the home circle. . The pearls were her mother's gift to her at the time of the coronmation, and the locket was presented to her by the Prince of Wales, who bought i when he was at Cowes for the regat ta. Queen Mary has let it be understood that no one is to give Princess Mary Jewelry of any sort till she is 17, and before the royal party left for the Durbar the queen repeated her wishes on the score. The princess has confessed to some of the ladles of the court that sh¢ does not mind not having rings and pins and chains, but that she yearns for long gold earrings set with ru bles and diamonds and that when she 18 17 she hopes a set will be given her 8nd If not she will buy them herself | | Ships That Made History. 1t is surely the very irony of cir- cumstance which couples the names of the Alabama and the Kearsarge among the twelve American battle- ships which the secretary of the navy has reported to congress as no longer to be regarded as available for the first line of battle, and necessary to be replaced by 1920. Not far short of half a century has passed since that famous Sunday morning in June —almost as famous in its assistance to the making of history as another June Sunday of close upon half a century before which witnessed Wa- terloo—when the Federal war steam- er Kearsarge fought and sank the Confederate cruiser Alabama in the roads off Cherbourg. The thrilling story of the fight was in all men's mouths for years afterward; and the Alabama, though under the waves, proved as perilous a craft for this country for long subsequently as she had done, when afloat, to the mnorth- ern states. The only good that re- sulted from her existence, indeed, Wwas to afford the firat effective chance of proving the value of inter- national arbitration.—Westminster Qazette, i The Oall of Duty. “I try to do my duty,” sald the ex: ceedingly sincere person, “and I do not hesitate to remind others of their duty.” “Go ahead,” replledthe easy-going citizen. “You may prove to be a very useful member of soclety. But when Why. Bayona Played Y. Juan Antonio Bayons played the ‘trombole ‘badly the other night at the| performance in a Madrid theater. The soprano was singing and Bayona’s dis. cordant notes: disturbed her and the audlence as well. Disturbed most of all was the gondudtor of the orched tra. He demanded an explanation and got it. aE As Bayona was entering the theater that evening his cigar fell from its holder. In stooping to pick up the cigar his eye fell on a newspaper clip ping.

BIRDS WITH NERVE IN CALIFORNIA THEY HAVE FREE AND EASY WAYS. > Annoy the Children and Steal Articles From Clothesiines—Qulls at the Seashore Are Wonderfully Tame and Soclable. My first experience of the fearless- at second hand, writes a correspond- ent of Suburban Life. It also came near getting a small boy into trouble. the said small boy went to school on his bicycle, down a busy avenue, with street cars running to and fro con- stantly.. Before he had fnade the jour- ney many times the child came home one evening and said: “I wish the birds would leave me alone.” “What birds?” I asked. “Why, those little blackbirds you see around,” he answered. “When I'm riding to school they come down and try to peck my hat off.” The child had always been a truth- ful child, but my faith in his veracity I gently expressed & doubt, but the boy backed up his as- ! sertion vehemently. “They do it every morning,” he per- 3isted, and I had to let it go at that. Later on, in speaking of this par- tcular breed of bird to a neighbor, the boy’s statement was justified. “Those little birds certainly are dar- ng,” sald the neighbor. “I've seen them try to take a plece of bread or cake from a child's hand—and not such a small child, either. They don’t seem to have the ordinary fear of mor- tals, probably because they are never molested here in the city.” One morning, going out to the front door, I found a caller. He was a tiny fellow, riding a tricycle. “Hello!” he sald. “Hello!” I answered. name?” “Henry,” *was the reply. “I live over there,” pointing to a house some distance across a vacant lot, and on snother street. “And what are you dolng so far away from home?” I asked. “I want my lttle sister’s shoe. It's In your yard.” “How did 1t get in our yard?” “A bird took it off my mamma’s clothesline and brought it over.” And sure enough a search of the yard disclosed the little white shoe, which the bird had pulled from the line and brought over to us. The boy’s mother had seen the feathered thief, and watched it till it dropped its booty In our back yard. The tameness of the gulls at the sea- shore is another source of wonder and delight. When we go to the beach we save the scraps of our luncheon and use them as a coaxer for the gulls. Sitting on the sand, piece by piece the scraps are thrown around us, and by and by we have a circle of the beau- tiful and graceful birds, all on the alert for another piece, but equally on the alert for the approach of any- thing which might be called an en- emy. At last, when they have found out that no aggressive move is made, the creatures will approach, almost within reach of our hands. On the piers where people are fishing, the gulls will git in rows, waiting for a chance at discarded bait or fish. Pecple pass constantly to and fro near them, but they show. no fear. Rules regarding their protection are very strict, and perhaps this is why they have learn- ed to be so fearless. In gome localities in the city’s out- skirts telephone’ and other wires will be covered for a block or more with small birds. What they find to eat In the city 18 a problem, but they thrive. Some of them are beautiful songsters, and all seem to have cul- tivated a friendly and fearless dispo- sitfon, i “What's your Gentle Criticism. - On one occasion Hans Richter was'| present at a concert given by a broth- er composer, at which the latter per- formed a long and not particularly in. teresting work of his own. When the compogition came to an end Richter expressed his criticism In a very few words you get through you'll have about as many sincere friends as an alarm clock” - 7 A S died in California, leaving a fortune of $200,000,000.
