CLOSE to the lands of the Penn
sylvania Central Oil Company there
lives an old chap who is worth
mint. Ignorant, of course, dumb
luck has made him rich. His house
hold pets consist of a terrier dog and
an idiot daughter, both Of which en-
gage his attention. The former pro-
vided for, he determined to "accom-
plish" his daughter. He bought
piano, a harp and aguitar, and a car
load of music books, etc., winding up
his business by engaging frst-class
intellectual and musical tutor. The
documents were of course soon ar
ranged for business. The tutor set
to work and toiled like a Trojan, but
with no success. Despairing of ulti-
mate triumph, the tutor went to the
oil king and made a clean breast Of
it. "Why. what the worlds the
matter ?" asked the father. "Well,"
answered the tutor, kitty has got
piano and guitar and harp, and
music and books, and all that, but
she wants capacity = that's all"
"Well, by the Lord Harry" cried
the oil king, "if that's all, just buy
it. I've got the stuff, and if money
will get it, she shall have capacity or
anything else" The music teacher
resigned. There is chance for some

of the royal household Of Queen Vic
toria: "The Mistress of the Robes
is an Office of great importance, and
one Of the best in the gift Of the Min
istry. The duties distinguish the
holder above all others-for instance,
that of riding in the royal carriage
on all state occasions, and robing
the Queen at the ceremonials Of i'm
portance, though the actual manipu-
lation connected with the duties of
the Mistress of the Robes is usually
performed by attendants on the per-
son of the sovereign. Groom of the
Stole was rather a curious Office to
attach to that of Mistress of the
Robes, but requisite when a female
was on the throne. The stole is q

with sarsinet. Sarah, Duchess Of

those of the Ladies Of the Bed
