General precautions against taking

LADIES' DEPARTMENT


When woman sets out to make .
mental calculation of the cost Of ten
yards of calico at eight cents a yard.
she invariably proceeds in this man
ner: Now, if it was ten cents yard,
1t would be-let me see-just one dol
lar. That's right. But it amt ten
cents yard, so it must be two cents a
yard less, and that is-let me think a
moment-twice ten is twenty. and
twenty times one hundred is-how
much ?" Here she sits and ponders
awhile, and then gets piece of lead
pencil, about half an inch long, sharp
ems it with bread knife, vets the end
OF it with her tongue, tears leaf out
of the back of the dictionary, and
commences to subtract twenty from
one hundred. After a deal of abnr-
tive figuring, sharpening the pencil
twice more, and wetting the end of it
in her mouth about fifty times, she
finally settles down to the conclusion
that the remainder is eighty With a
satisfied expression on her beaming
face. she puts the bit of pencil away
in her work-box, and firmly resolves
that she'll have that new calico dress
if she can coax the necessary ninety

Early Life OF the Queen OF ROumamfa.
Rushing down the stairs one day
with her habitual impetuosity, she
slipped and would have fallen to the
bottom, had not gentleman who was
ascending at the same moment caught
her in his arms. 1t was fall laden
with unexpected consequences, for she
had fallen into the arms of her future
husband. But as yet she was not to
rest in them for good. The young
princess evinced an almost savage dis
like to matrimony, and in response to
all proposals of marriage made to her
replied: II do not want to marry un-
less | can be queen of Roumania.
The reply seemed very safe one in
those days, when Roumania had but
just been founded, and only as a prin-
cipality, under the boyard rule of the
worthless Prince Couza. She little
realized that later she would be taken
at her word. Meantime she went
home again to WED, and resumed her
offices in the sick-room and her studies:
for until she was twenty-five, indeed
until she married, Princess Elizabeth
never ceased to take lessons.
Meanwhile European public events
were changing, change destined to
affect the wild rosebud of Wied," as
her friends loved to call her. In 1868
Prince Charles of HohenZollern had
been chosen ruler of Roumania, and
in the autumn of the next year he.
came to the Rhine to remind the
Prince Elizabeth of her desire to rule
over that kingdom. Even so he was a
little while before she could consent
to resign her flercely cherished indie
pendence, but she yielded, and in
November of the same year be took
her to his home amid the Carpathians,
after she had been united to him four
times over, namely: according to the
German civil code, recording to the
Lutheran, her own religion, according
to the Roman Catholic, which is his,
and according to the rites of the Greek
chmch, which is the creed of their
kingdom.
