Frances First Newspaper

The origin of the newspaper in
france was peculiar. During the
early part of the Seventeenth centurv
physician named Renaudot resided
IN fans. He was an inveterate ~os
sip, and owed much of his profession n :,
success to his reputation as collector
OF news, patients seeking him as much
TO obtain tidings of what was eoing on
IN the world as on account of his
medical proficiency. In order to in ,s
crease the number of his patients he
obtained permission from the govern
ment to print a sheet every Week for
eelstrloutlon among his clientele The
a nrst OF these sheets appeared in 1889
ana am so great was their popularity that
'he ingenious physician soon had
many imltators. The first nnbl;n'
t t"na -, IN all countries were in the ma
lure OF news letters, irregular enbem
era sneets, with irresponsible editors,
tna followed the weekly, and finally

After the late DR.. Prime, of the New

story to the effect that Noah on a re-
turn visit to the earth failed to recop-
nize any portion of the earth's surface
until he came to Spain, when in rant

An interesting anecdo.e is related by
the "Yugend Freunds of King Alphonso
X. surnamed 1.-THE WISE" who succeeded
To the throne of Leon and Castillo in
1859, On learning that his pages neg
Iected to ask the divine blessing before
partaking OF their daily meals, he was
deeply grieved and sought diligently to
point out to them the evil Of this omis-
sion. At length he succeeded in finding
a plan He invited the pages OF his court
TO dine It'll him. A bountiful repast
sembled around the table the king gave
a signal that all was in readiness for
them to begin. They all enjoyed the
rich feast, but not one remembered to
ask Gods blessing on his food
Just then, Unexpectedly to the thought
less guests, entered poor, ragged beg
gar, who unceremoniously seated him
self at the royal table, and ate and drank
undisturbed, to his hearts content. Sur
prise and establishment were depicted on
every countenance.
The pages looked first at the king,
then gazed upon the audacious intruder,
expecting momentarily that his majesty
would give orders to have him removed
from the table. Alphonso, however, kept
silence; while the beggar, unabashed by
the presence of royalty, ate all he de-
sired, When his hunger and thirst were
appeased he rose and without word OF
thanks departed from the palace.
"What despicable, mean fellowr
cried the boys. Calmly the good king
rose, and, with much earnestness, said
Boys, holder and more audacious than
this beggar have you all been. Every
day you sit down to table supplied by
the bounty of your heavenly father, YET
you ask not his blessing, and leave il
without expressing to him your gratitude
Yes, each and all of you should be
heartily ashamed of your conduct, which
was far worse than was the poor beg
gar's. THE Little Christian.

The Other WAY.

A well known Chicago attorney tells
good one anent the quick wit and ready
tongue of that brilliant lawyer, the late
Emery A. Storrs. 1t was after the ven
cradle Justice Skates had left the Illinois
supreme bench. The justice had specu-
lated good deal and had been unfor-
tunate. He had been sued to recover
certain claims, judgment had been en-
tered against him, and attachments
against his property had been taken out.
But none of his property could be found
and the attachments remained unsatis.
fed. On account of the prominence of
the justice, the case was well known
among lawyers. Not long afterward
Mr.. Storrs was defending a heavy at
tachment suit, and the lawyer on the
other side took occasion to cite certain
decision of the Illinois supreme court in
support of his position. Suorrs was on
his feet in moment. "Whose decision
is that?' he asked. ut was written by
Justice Skates" replied the other attor-
ney. well" said the witty Storrs.
Skates on attachments may be all
right, but attachments on Skates amt
worth cent!"-Chicago Herald.
