1t often happens that weak Ut in.

old-style weights and the pendulum are still

A PRINCES PLEASURES.


Amu~es Himself. Z
London Cor. San Francisco Arxonaut.l
l dare say you may remember a story
which got out last year about Il practical
joke that was played at Cowas during the
yachting week on a lady named Mrs. Gust,
whose house at that time every year is a
favorite resort OF the prince OF Wales and
his followers. 1t seems that Mrs Gust was
told that the French cabinet minister, NJ.
Wnddington, was In Cowes, and the prince
requested that he be invited to dinner by her
to meet his royal highness. The invitation
was, Of course, gwen. and the dinner took
place. After dinner the gentlemen cara
into the drawing-room, and there, In Mrs.
Gusts presence, an alteration soon aross
between NJ. Waddington and Lord Char.es
Beresford- The rudo,t, most insulting eii-
thets were applied to the French people IN
general, and M. Waddington in particular,
the war OF words ending in NJ. Waddington
being hustled out Of the room into the gar
den, and thrown over the wall into the road.
Shortly after be presented himself again,
covered with dust. when, at the earnest SO
licitation Of Mrs. Gust, who was almost In a
faint, a peace was patched NJ. Another row
soon began. ending as before. The prince
throughout the proceedings was convulsed
with laughter. Somehow the affair reached
the ears OF the French ambassador ia Lon
don, and he wrote to Lord Granville about
it. Then the truth had to coms out. 1t
wasn't NJ. Waddington at all, but ABull Rum
Russell, who had dressed up to represent
him, the whole thing being concocte1 by
Lord Charles Beresford for the amusement
OF the prince Of Wales.
Such was last years fun, and hero Is what
happened this year After dinner when, as
before, all the guests were assembled In the
drawing-room, an old woman, dressed in a
French costume with very short skirts, sud
denly made her appearance. and, one OF tho
company being requested to play some lively
opera bouffe airs on the piano-forte, she pro
ceeded to dance the can can. At last she sat
down amid a round Of applause, and then a
~quadrille was formed, the old woman re-
questing the prince to be her partner. AL
though not exactly the proper thing, he
couldn't refuse. After the quadrille
she as suddenly disappeared, and peo-
pie were wondering who she was,
when the door wa thrown open
and In walked Sir Harry Keppel. 1t
needed but a glance to sec that he it was who
had been masquerading as the ancient
French damsel, and great was the merriment
thereat. Sir Harry Keppel is a man of rs,
and, notwithstanding his age, is one Of the
princes most constant companions and fol-
lowers. Fancy a man of his age, and an
admiral of the feet, consenting TO such an
exhibition Of want OF dignity on his partl

Chemist, Washington, D. O., reads: To
the thousands whose systems instinctively
shrink from the use of morphia and
opium, and especially to mothers, who
justly dread the evil, and, at times, fatal
effects Of these dangerous drugs, the Red
Star Cough Cure must prove a boon. Ii
is not only entirely free from all opiates,
poisons emetics, Ia thing which not one
cough preparation it ten can boast, but
It is altogether an original and most happy
combination of the best remedial agents,
and is as harmless as il is effective. /
base this assertion on careful analyses and
numerous practical fests-the latter in
every case resulting in q speedy cure.
