Last OF all, remember that you owe a
debt to humanity. Try to live and
labor SO tina. the world may be richer
and mankind the happier for your hav
ing lived. A great inventor, a great
philanthropist, leaves legacy to his
race. Who can estimate the meal
culable debt of the world to the ir-
ventor of printing, of the steam engine,
OF the telegraph? Who will deny that
Washington, Franklin, and John How
ard helped to make the world better
than they found it? Will not the
memory Of Scott, of Dickens, and Of
Thackeray live in the fund of innocent
pleasure which their works are destined
to afford for generations to come? All
cannot attain their celebrity or emulate
their great achievements, but no one is
SO humble that he cannot promote in
some degree the happiness of those
around him.
A good mother, when her son was
leaving the home Of his childhood and
going out into the great world, knowing
that he was ambitious, gave him this
parting injunction: MY son, remem-
peT tuat. tAougn IL Is good thing to be
o great man, it is great thing to be a
good nan."
No sounder, no truer words were
ever spoken. A great man may dazzle,
but good man is beacon shining
afar, by whose benefcent light multi
tude are enabled to walk III safety.
The best success is, often achieved bv
the humblest, aud an obscure life, well
spent, is better than wicked renown.

The King Of Spain has three sisters
who live in the Royal Palace. The eldest
Of these ladies is the Princess Maria Isa-
bella Of Asturlas, infanta OF Spain, aged
twenty eight years, and for the last eight
years the widow OF the Count of Girgentl.
She has been a second mother TO Alfonso.
Highly intellectual, well read, modest,
she has aimed to no higher role than that
Of being the consoling and protecting
guardian of her brother. Her only am
bition is his happiness. ler face IS sin
gularly sweet and serene. The second
sister IS the infanta Maria de la Paz, who
is seventeen years old. tall and slender,
pretty and graceful, and an excellent mu-
sician. The tinrl IS the lntanta Marla
Eualia She IS fifteen years OF age, and
still more blonde and slender than her
sister Maria. Size has lovely eyes and IS
wonderful linguist. Among the men
Of the court the most prominent are
Count Morphy, the Duke Of Lesto and the
Count of Onate. Count Morphy is a per-
feet type Of the Castilian gentleman
learned. good-natnred and devoted to his
King. to whom he was formerly tutor
and now Secretary. He exercises q most
wholesome influence upon Alfonso. lie
keeps aioof from the contention OF pol,-
tics, his one passion being art, which he
patronizes in true MHcenas fashion. The
Duke # Sesto. who married the Duchess
Of Morny, IS the head Of the Kings
household. HIS political career has been
very short It tended with the coronation
Of Alfonso. which was largely his work.
Hc is a great friend OF Frascuelo, the
hull fighter, fact winch certainly does
not argue well for hls taste. Count
Onate is a venerable old man. He was
one OF the most loyal servants Of Isabella,
and he now serves her son with equal
fidelity He is the type Of those faithful
men upon whom "El Rey' can always
depend.

" allied Kt MacaroDf Y

A writer in st. Nicholas tells what
he has learned about macaroni," the
queer word used III yankee Doodle" ]"
Yankee Doodle came to town
Iron little pony:
he stuck q feather in his hat
And called ts'aacaroni.
He says:
In England, during the reign Of
Queen Elizabeth, most Of the dandltied
things Of that tine such as table
forks, etc.-came from Italy, and were
called macaroni," which is Italian, de-
rived from Greek word meaning
very dainty"
About the time of Oliver Cromwell
appeared verse which some have
thought was meant to make fun Of him.
The verse runs:
4anhee Doodle came to town
Upon kentish pony;
lie stuck feather III his Lat
An called il Eacaroni.
Bnt history says Cromwell came from
Huntingdon, and ! think he was not
the kind Of man to wear feathers and
brag of them. lie was stout, red faced
and rather rough-not slim and top.
pish.
In Sheridan's play, "The School for
Scandal are these lines:
sure, never Were seen two such beautiful ponies;
otAtr horses are clowns. bnt these macaronis.
] e give them tt!s title I'm sure can't be wrong
Tle.r aess are slim and their tails are so long.
Washington Irving tells us that in
the War Of the Revolution some Mary
land regiments, who .ore very gay uni
forms, were known as lie Macaronls,
and he adds that they showed their
game spirit. So 1t seems they could
fight well beside dressing well.
Another author says: A hundred
years ago the slang for certain sort OF
fop was macaroni.' He was distin-
guished chiefly by the strange way in
which he dressed his head, and he wore
feathers in his hat
This is all have been able to find
out about the word macaroni," used
in the song Yankee Doodle;' and il
seems to mean something or somebody
very dainty or finical, and to have very
little to do with the food called "maca.
ROM although that also comes from
Italy.
