Prince Bismarck at Home.

Everybody knows that the prince hardly
ever gets up before noon, unless he has to at
tend an important parliamentary meeting
But it must be remembered that he only goes
to bed after working til a. IN. every night
In the chancellOr's bedroom a light is kept
burning all the night, numbers of messages,
often requiring his personal attention, being
brought IN during the night. In considera-
ton of the late hours kept by the prince, sup
per is served late in the evening and seldom
finished before midnight. Besides the Prln-
cess Bismarck Count and Countess Rantzan
partake of almost every meal, regularly
leaving the palace at 10:45 p. m, when
a second class cab always takes them
home Bismarcks birthday is always
a great feast and holiday for the serv-
ants of the house. In the kitchen barrel of
wine is provided by Princess Bismarck, two
bands are in attendance, and the servants
families appear on the scene. The prince
comes down, talks with the guests and dis
tributes sweets among the children. The
pleasant relations between master and
servant are also evident from the fact that
the princess always gives six Easter eggs to
each of the servants
The domestic police of the prince consists
of sergeant and eight cOnstables. If the
prince is away from home four cOnStableS go
with him and four remain at the house, and
all of them are entitled to arrest any suspi-
cious person, be it at Berlin, at Friedrichs
ruhe or at Varzin. 1t was at Varzin where
Bismarck's large dog Sultan was poisoned.
The princess declared at the time that she
would make provision for life for any one
who could point out the pOisOner. Sultan
was more intelligent than Tyras, but Tyras
is the more faithful of the two, and will take
food out of the hand of any member of
Prince Bismarck's family, but never from
servant, as one of the footmen has learned to
his regret.-German Paper

''Tea is better than coffee, but neither com

it must not be drawn too long before it is
drank. If it stands for certain time it be-

Tea should be drank without sugar. Coffee

Not a Good .Inror.

A man whose sole duty in life is to obey
orders does not make good nor a fair juror.
He does not know how to weigh evidence as
the mechanic, or the blacksmith, or the
skilled laborer does. He is not accustomed to
exercising his own judgment. Somebody
else he's been doing the most of his thinking.
And if he e.6ertains doubt about anything
he naturally looks to the man in power to set
him right. That comes to be instructive in
him as result of his business education. OF
course the states attorney or his representa-
tive is looked upon by a man like this as the
agent of all that is good and just. The law
yer for the poor scamp who has gotten into
trouble is an enemy of society The trouble
with many of our juries is that they are not
impartial, because they fall into way of re
garding themselves as a corps of assistants to
the prosecutor and the state.-Chicago Her

THE FIRST FATAL STEP.
The Results of Committing an Indiscre
Air,r, In. tho VA of EIoorn,,t Attira

The Results of Committing an Indiscre"
ton in the Way of Elegant Attire.
A friend of mine who is rather violently
disturbed over the matter of his personal APP
pearance in discussing the matter the other
day, placidly remarked:
'S'Frank r. Stockton once wrote a story
about man who boughta Queen Anne CRATE,
and was then lured on from one purchase to
another under the spell of the decorative
craze until he was obliged to build Queen
Anne cottage to match his belongings. The
man who falls victim to clothes does it a
good deal in the same way, and Stockton
ought to be able to write corking good
story about a poor wretch who goes off in
sudden fight of vanity and extravaganza
and purchases a pair of overgaiters, from
which he is led on to be a monumental and
stupendOuS fOp.
sit is when man commits his first indiscre-
ton in the way of the elegancies of attire
that his downfall begins. If you are dressed
in rough clothes and heavy boots you will
look as well, as long as your attire is in har-
mony, but the very instant you buy pair
of overgaiters you observe that your trousers
look bit frayed at the bottom. You buy
new ones. Then you find that you want to
have them ironed to be in the style. They
are irOned After this the conviction is
slowly but surely forced upon you that the
shoes are not quite up to the standard OF
CATERS You buy new shoes, and patent
leather Ones of course, as there is no use
going half way. By this time there is no
shadow of doubt that the coat looks rusty,
and after you have bought a new coat and
vest, you find that fancy waiscoat is almost
as necessary as food. You buy the waist
coat. Then after short struggle, you are
obliged to admit that smooth bOsOmed shirts
are by no means in harmony with the rest OF
your attire. Hence piqUe and ribbed fronts,
huge cuffs, high collars After this, eXpen-
sive cravats, and, finally, if you are not very
careful, fierce and ungovernable yearning
for single glass.
''This is the place to draw the line though
it is not always drawn by the well dressed
your buttonhole, and finally sally forth with
the latest beaver hat and the reddest of
gloves, and feel yourself completely dressed.
Then the trouble is that by the time all this
is accomplished, you suddenly discover that
the over CATERS look a little bit frayed
Then the boots need revarEishing and there
is wrinkle in the back of the coat, but
worst of all, the trousers bag little at the
knees, and it is the unwritten law Of swelldom
that by his trousers shall ye know him. From
that time on about One-third of your life
must be given up to considerations of dress,
OF YOU will miss accomplishing what has be-
come cherished and over mastering amb1-
ton. Ny advice to mankind is to beware OF
the first step for fear you become fop. y
