Getting more business il

merchant. The much of to.

Profit quickens his efforts :;
profit is his imperative need.
Yet profit stands lower than
the increase of business. IF
it doesn't, the merchant must
take second rank-it does

shuts himself out from the

At the recent celebration in Balti-
more of the seventy-ifth anniversary
of the bombardment of Fort McHenry
and the composition by Key of 1.-The

oldest printer living. and who, while
printer in the Office of the Baltimore
American, in 1914, first put that song

manuscript and distributed it through
the streets of that city. This fact and
the other one that in 1885. in the fist
campaign OF William Henry Harrison,
he had published a Wing campaign
paper. the Freeman's Banner, led him
to ask permission during q break in
the industrial parade to pay his re-
spects to President Harrison, but the

PRINCELY TITLES.

How sHis HighRess" Has Fallen From
First to Fourth Place.
1t is announced from Russia that the
Car has bestowed the title of ''most
illustrious" upon the Comtesse de Beau
harnais, nee Skobeleff, and wife of the
Due de Leuchtenberg. The notability
of that otherwise far from interesting
piece of news consists in the fact that
the lady has had title expressly in
vented for her, she being the first s'most
il1ustrious Countess" on record. 'sMost
nlustrious" is regarded as being of the
nature of ''highness," while of some
what less altitude; oddly enough, t'high-
ness itself has been going down in the
world until, we suppose, it is held neces-
sary that its descent should stop some
where. It was formerly the distinction
of Kings-Henry VII. was sshis high
ness" only, and when Kings became
majesty" it passed down to royal
princes and to electors of the holy
Roman Empire.
Then Louis XIV. created a distinc-
ton between ''highness" and royal
highness," the former thus tax
ing another step downward. Then,
when the i1legitimate children
of the grand monarch received
the title of ''highness," the
Prince of Condo, scendalized by the pro-
ceeding, distinguished himself by the
title of ''serene highness," or ''most
serene highness"-the title which the
Germans call ''durchlaucht," and which
Thackeray makes fun of by rendering it
'transparency''-so that plain 'shigh-
ness from being first fell to fourth in
the scale We are reminded by the
French authority, to which gratitude is
due for some of these curiosities of
history, that while the Prince of Mon
AGO is ''most serene highness." Prince
Bismarck is ''highness" only; and that
the epithet 'smost serene" was original
~ invented by Venice, which called it
self ''the most serene republic" Re-
publics of more modern growth, how
ever, have not followed the Venetian
example, for reasons too obvious to
mention. The last simple ''highness."

A Fertile Tract Of Sixteen ThOusend Acres
IN the Genesee valley.
The stables Of American country
houses have grown to be models OF
luxury. aad are quite as gorgeous and
conspicuous as the dwelling houses

life and sports the stable daily takes a

H1skory ~ the Beaufzfu1 Rsgodn Of the
Emerald Rice Bo 81.
From thepentrances facing the plain
on . clear day the view mast be magnif-
icent; but at the time of our visit the
hills on the other side Of the plain were
shrouded In haze, and we could only see
the country for two or three miles be-
yond the town. The city and villages
were hidden by the foliage, and the
whole plain as far as we could see looked
one great orchard of palm and fruit
trees, with here and there a narrow slip
of rice plain. Nothing can be more de-
ceptive than travelling through such
country; the great hedges of fruit trees
and clumps OF handsome bamboos that
fringe the fields continually hiding the
extent of the cultivation. In the fringes
surrounding the fields, and in the beau
tiful groves that are scattered about,
lie the houses of the villagers, making
it simply impossible without census
to arrive, or even make near guess, at
the population. Seeing one of the Ka-
wat, or pagoda slaves, sweeping up some
fallen leaves, DIR. Cushing asked him to
relate the legend of the pagoda and the
origin of its name. In reply he told us
that long. long ago, a company of Pee,
or spirits, brought five of the bowls
which are used for begging by the
monks, and offered them at the shrine.
These were each of different colors-
red, yellow. white, blue, and green,
cut out of precious gems, and
fitted one within the other-the green
or emerald bowl containing the rest.
The pagoda is therefore named THE
Pagoda of the Emerald Rice Bowl" He
further assured US that the right name for
Loi 500 Tayp was Loi 500 Tee, its
name having originated from white
elephant that assembled the mountain,
bearing sacred relics, exclaiming, as he
reached the top, $500 Teo" or THE
place ends" The pagoda slaves are
looked upon as outcasts by the remainder
of the people, and are eitherthe descend
ants of pagoda slaves or have been
dedicated to the service of the pagoda
by their master on account of hemerit
accruing to the deed, or have been SO
dedicated as a punishment for crimes
they have committed. Not evena King
dare free pagoda slave, for if he did SO
he would, after this life, infallibly have
to descend to the bottom of most fear
full hell. They are not only pagoda
slaves and outcasts, but their posterity
must remain so during the dispensation
Of Guadama Buddha, embracing a
period of five thousand years after his
death, which is said to have occurred
B. c. 543. Pagoda slaves may not be
employed in any other work than keep
ing the shrine in order, and are obliged
to present tithes of all they produce for
the use and maintenance of the pagoda
and its monks. On our return the
journey took only three hours and a
half, as the elephants went quickly
down the hill and were in a hurry to
get home for their evening feed
