tales and true ones, too, are told of his cor

Mordaunt scandal was only one out of twenty
equally well known to people in society, but
not to the public.
THE fact is that no English woman who
values her reputation will allow the Prince
of Wales to pay her the slightest attention,
for it means her ruin if he can compass it.
So many heart-breaking scandals DOW come
to light that self-respecting women know
they will be Immediately Stunned by their
own sex and avoided by men who are seek
ing wives if this royal sensualist be not kept
at a distance.
Not more than month ago the daughter
of an Earl stopped dancing and openly re-
fused TO go on with the Prince, because he
was holding her too closely and otherwise
misbehaving himself in large ballroom.
She left him in the middle of the floor and
asked an acquaintance who was near to take
her to her mother This young lady had
known him all her life, and was one of the
attendants of the Princess Louise when she
married the Marquis of Lorne Her conduct
was applauded by everyone, and, although
he apologzed most humby, she will never
speak to him again. This affair made great
stir in society. although it was kept out of
the papers. Parents are not anxious to have
their daughters go to court.

its all that" replied Mr.. Roop, but it's
more. It's about the only long tailed Loop
ard in the United States. You see these
heasts are subject TO fits, and whenever that
roues oil the only relief IS to cut off a joint
OF his tail and let little blood. It's the
same with cats and dogs. Whenever they get
fits just take big pair of shears and nip of
joint; let out little of the bad blood and
then the fit is cured. I've known pig rear
round a sty like wild thing and as soon as
hes had his tail shortened he'll just be as
quiet as lamb. Leopards are peculiarly sub
ject to fits, but this leopard has had no fits,
and consequently he's got all his tail Near
ly all the other beasts have been locked, and

most of the animals are stump-taiied
They've been locked for fits. In fact, you
