RefuSf1C tho Yollx.

That fine art which enables one to
say mo" so that the person refused
cheerfully acquiesces is illustrated by a
story told in The Gossip of the Cen
fury.
Levassor, who was the best French
representative of the amusing singing
speaking style of entertainment, was
always ready to help any work of char
ity. On one occasion he performed for
a charitable society, and the receipts
were SO large that the manager deter
mined to compensate him for his
services. At the conclusion of the en-
tertainment. therefore, the parish priest
brought Levassor a basket of moss on
which lay large egg made ef sugar
The weight-of the egg revealed to the
artist the delicately disguised intention
of the donors to offer him fee Break
ing the egg, he said: II am very fond
of eggs, but never eat the yolk Keep
it to feed the poor" and he returned
the roll of napoleons inclosed in it.

THE BARON OF BEEF.
How 1t Is Prepared for the Queens
Sideboard.

How 1t Is Prepared for tho Queens
Sideboard.
Few untraveled Americans have ever
seen royal baron Of beef.
The baron is generally about the
available half of huge beef creature,
and the roasting of this ancient Yule-
tide joint is still kept up with much
state and ceremony in the household Of
her gracious majesty at Windsor.
The barren having been selected is
roasted in front of the great kitchen
fire at Windsor, two cooks being kept
busy basting its sides. The ceremony
always attracts a small crowd of privi-
lodged persons from the household, who
watch with interes: the progress of the
Joint which, on Christmas day. will ap-
pear cold On the royal sideboard at Os-
borne
One of the bears from the queens
herd in Windsor's Great park must also
fall sacrifice to Christmas gayety, for
the boar's head will flank the baron Of
beef ON the royal sideboard.
In the olden day the ceremony Of
bringing Ia the baron of beef was as
picturesque and entertaining as that
now associated with the boar's head,
but in time it died out.
1t was formeriT accompanied by the
singing of kind of musical grace, and
the servants. including the cooks and
tasters, followed it in long procession.

and she sings. and her songs are very
risky; it is not there, for others sing
even better than she does, and more
risky songs still, and often in the
pieces that are least risky she scores
her best hits. Giving up then as hope
lessly impossible task the effort to con-
vey in a concise statement the idea of
the something she possesses that makes
her worth some fifty times IS much as
any other performer like her in Paris;
which lifts her from the rut, and puts
an ordinary concert-hal singer on the
level OF q great star, at least financially
like Carmeneita in New York-it may
be excussble to attempt TO trace q
faint resemblance of the something re-
