He filled tw) great halls with clothes and had a-special watch, snuff box, sword and cane for every one of hig” hundreds of suits, To go Wwith them he also had 1,500 wigs. Five ar- tists were kept busy painting minia- tures of the clothing and keeping these paintings fn a catalog that the'king: might select from each day as he rose. He took .the lovely countess of Cozelle as his wife, and the mere fect that she had a husband already mat- tered little. He appeared at her door one:day with a horseshoe in one hand and a bag of 100,000/crowns in the other.

The lady, impressed, got rid of her hus- band at once, obtaining a divorce ot ‘the sort that allowed of .remarriage. Suspicious historians have hinted that the horseshoe might have been filed a bit before the kingly hand tore it apart. Taking Care of Indoor Plants. To make ferns grow rapidly indoors and look fresh and gréen,’chop a few oysters fine and mix with the soil nd then water well. This’may be dene every fortnight. Wash the leaves of your rubber plant with a cloth wet with- olive oil. This nourishes the plant, and keeps the leaves dark green and velvety. Add a few drops of am- monia to a quart of lukewarm water when you water house plants. The chemical acts as a tonic and fertilizer and_makes the foliage fresher. And be careful, when real winter weather comes, not to water your plants with a faucét in January is far too cold for tender plints. Add emough hot water to make the drink you give your plants lukewarm—as ralnwater always I8 in summer time. The Best Thing He Did.

A. ' W. Brabham has submitted to the Cotton exchange of Savannah four | sampies of colored cotton—Ilight brown, dark brown, light green: and dark green. They are the results of years of experimentation, Mr, Brabham says | that other colors will appear when a number of cotton plants in his garden that are not yet fully grown begin to bear. The botanist has not yet been able | to produce black cotton, but he says | he will do so in time. It would have appeared this year, he contends, if a package of the seeds of a blue-tinted cotton, mailed to him by a botanist in Delhi, Indin, had.pot gone asfray. Mr. Brabham has ser\lt for another pack- age of these seeds, and he is convinced that if he crosses them with certain of the cottons he has:already grown the result will be black. Luther Burhank once tofd Mr. Brab- ham that he would produce black cot- ton for a million dellars. Mr. Brab- ham replied that he thought he could do it more cheaply, and thereupon started hlg experiraents, g The Domestic Optimist at Work, “My hugbnnd has pever spoken a cross word to me.” “Daughter is always 4t the head of her class, and she doesn't have to study a bit hard., She.really seems to have more time to play than any of" the other girls.” “I'm go glad you came, I assure you.
