One of the most interesting curiost- ties at Hatfield is the pedigree of Elfz. abeth, which is to be seen in the gal- lery. Those intrusted to make out the document wisely discovered that her descent could be traced through every important person, and especial ly through every beautiful person, straight back to Adam and Eve. It 18 on record that the Virgin Queen bighly commended the work.—London Even'ng Standard. Making His Opportunity. A New York banker has made it:the rule of ais life never to swear except when he drops his watch, as he some- times dces absent-mindedly, and breaks it. Under strong provocation be took out his watch and flung it on the marble floor of his office. So, it seems, when you put your mind on it mro, is a way tosolve every prob- Selzed by an Eagle. l A huge eagle swooped down op the home of a Westport, Conn., man a few days ago and seized Anna, his two- year-old daughter, in its talons and attempted to fly away with her. The screams of the child brought the fa- ther to the yard. The bird then drop- ped the little one, and the father selz- ed her and ran Into the house. The little girl's clothes were torn by the bird’s talons, but she was mot even wcratched. Absent-Minded Professor. A certain university professor was noted for his absent-mindedness. One morning as he sat at the breakfast ta- | ble with a scientific magazine prop- | ped up before him, his wife was aston. ished to see him reach out for the maple sirup, pour it down his, back, and lean over and scratch his pan- cake. Worked That Time, Anyway. In the Irish rebellion a bombshell whizzed toward an Irishman’s head. | this minute—it wing in a motherly way in spite of the fact that she was not 20. He began to cheer up insensibly in that atmos- phere, as is the way of the masculine world. ¥ “Will you go to the moving picture show up the street with me this eve- ning?” young Darnley asked Mamie suddenly while at dinner. He felt. that some return was due her for her |} kindness and she was a girl whom no man need be ashamed to'be seen with. “Sure,” sald Mamie with no flutter at all. Young Darnley had a very good time that evening. When Mamie met him she wore a trim tallor sult and a saucy hat and she laughed a lot and made him laugh. Going home he spoke bitterly of the false Jessie. “Mebbe she really did think she was right,” Mamie insisted. “Mebbe she didn’t pick the quarrel just to get rid of you like you think!” Manile was a comforting person to talk to. She was always interested and she gave him advice about Jessie which he instantly repudiated. He spent a great deal of time trying to ex- plain ot her that that part of his life was all over and finished. “Sure,” Mamie would say. you cheer up and forget it!” Then the next time he talked about it she would repeat her advice that he go back to Jessie and say he was sorry. “Do you think I want to go back?” he would ask with immense scorn. For several months young Darnley took Mamie out. One evening when he felt especially blue he made up his mind that he knew what was the trou- ble. All he needed was perpetual sympathy and cheerfulness like Ma- mie’'s to make life worth living. He wondered that he had been so dull as not to see it before. What were so- clal distinctions and class lines when put up against genuine worth? So, taking Mamie's hand in his as they walked along, he asked her to marry him. “Kid;” sald Mamie rather tremulous- iy, “you're & nice chap. You've been ‘mighty good to me. I'm glad you like me. But you're all wrong in the way you's doped this out. Honest, you aren’t in love with me at all! Why, I'm not your sort! ~What's making you miserable all his time and what you honestly want to do and won't and should is to trot along to Jessie and swallow your pride and then be happy all the rest of your life! She'll make up with you if you go.” “Do you really think so?” “Just' young ! Darnley asked. “Sure she will!” she sald sturdily, glving him a little push. “Go along isn't late! And for- get what you said to me!” Young Darnley looked down at Ma- mie. She was smiling up " at him brightly as usual.. There was nothing pathetic about the rosy face. Yet there was a sudden lump in his throat as young Darnley beént over and kiss- ed her. : “You—you're a brick, Mamie!” he said, huskily. “I'll never forget what you'v¢ done for me! And I like you awfully well!” Pat dodged it with a low bow, and it went by, taking off the head of a man behind him. ““Faith” exclaimeéd Pat, l“ye niver knew a man to lose any- thing by bein' perlite!” | | 8 L 4 HOTEL ASTOR Cor. Bay and Hogan Sts. Mamie watched him as he hastened down the street. She dabbed at her eyes as she turned in at her door. “Ot course she'll take him back!” she sald . flercely. “Gee!"—Chicago Daily News.

Vechiu had refused to allow their cows to graze on his land and to frighten the deputation away he had fired over the heads of the women. Infuriated the milkmaids rushed upon him and it was only by the intervention of some herds that he was rescued from thelr vengeance. ~ The Most Original Authors, The most original modern authors are not so because they advance what is new, but simply because they know how to put what they have to say as it it had never been sald before.— Goethe.
