new trial in the case of Lucius Varna-

fare, and had to walk into the city He
brought suit and recovered 800. The
motion for new trial was made by the
defendants, and the case will now be
carried to the supreme court.

McGarr, who was convicted of swindling
and cheating some time ago and sentenced

Official Etiquette.

When a family aspires to take a
prominent part in the social gayeties
of Washington it is very necessary
that all points of etiquette should be
thoroughly understood. Otherwise
serious troubles arise from seemingly
unimportant causes. In the event of
a dinner given to a distinguished
Engllshman, no matter how exalted
his position or social rank, he can,
not, unless q member of the royal
family, be accorded the place of
honor should Sir Julian Pauncefote
be present. The explanation is that
the British minister represents he1
majesty the queen.
Should Sir Julian give a dinner
party and have among his guests a
minister entitled by seniority of serv-
ice to outrank him, and a cabinet
officer, the place of honor would
then be given the member of the
cabinet, this act of courtesy CORE
spending to that shown by the Amer
lean nation to the diplomatic corps
who, on New Years day, are received
first by the president.-Kate Fields

He Was Awful HomeIy.

One day while on a hunting expe-
dition in the Alps, Victor Emmanuel
met an old woman gathering BRAN
bles. She inquired Of the stranger
whether it was true, as she had
heard, that the king was in the
neighborhood. If so, was there any
chance of seeing him?
Eyes," said his majesty, ''he is
about. Would you really like to see
him?"
The old woman declared that few
sights would give her more pleasure.
''Well, mother, I am the king"
She stared at him for a moment
and broke into grin.
"Get out with you, JESTER! Doyou
think a nice woman like the queen
would marry chap like you, with
that hideous mug?"
The king was not offended. Per
haps the compliment to his wife mol
lifted him. He gave the woman g
piece of money, with which he was
always free, and passed along. -Ex

The Flavor of Oranges.

Rough, brownish oranges are said
to carry in their complexion a guar
antee of sweetness, the peculiar ap-
pearance being due to the attacks of
insects who have selected them for
this very quality. This may be true,
but it would be hard to find better
oranges than some of the smooth
skinned, heavy fruit that are beauti-
full as we'll as good. In the choice of
oranges the matter of flavor seems
to be surprisingly ignored. The aver
age man or woman prefers a very
sweet orange, and likes Floridas be-
cause they are sweet. There is a
finer flavor, however, in the Mediter-
ranean fruit. For some reason this
is Increasingly difficult to find in
market until the rush of Florida or
anges is over. Hartford Courant. +,

Variation.

In old time variation was supposed
to be special property of the seed
to get new varieties; now it is found
that buds will vary as well as seeds,
and many of the popular flowers in
use by florists have been raised from
branches which have "sported," to
use a technical term, from other
kinds. 1t is further found that even
bulblets will vary in the same way.
Many ferns produce these on the
fronds, and Mr.. G. j. Lowe recorded
the fact that he has raised new vari-
cites of ferns directly from these
bullets. Meehans Monthly.

An Ingenious Burglar Alarm.

M. Brain, a Paris bQotmaker, has
an ingenious fashion of catching per-
sons who manifest an intention to
appropriate any of the goods exposed
for sale outside of his shop. When

sounded and the bootmaker was on
the alert in time to point out The
fast disappearing culprit to a police

Sources of POPULAR Phrases.

There are two great sources of pop
ular phases, both so much drawn
upon that we are apt to attribute all
such sayings to one or the other
namely, the Bible and Shakespeare.
1t is often difficult to persuade people
that the saying, God tempers the
wind to the shorn lamb, is not in
the Bible; it is, in fact, a phrase of
Sterne's, the author of 'Tristram
Shandy." Cleanliness is next to
goodness" and God helps those who
help Themselves" are also generally
believed to be in the Bible, but are
not.-London Tit-Bits.

is, by the way, that a neighbor,

keeping. What did the latter do but
right in the face and eyes of the
owner, while talking busily, toss the

BUYING A HAT.
Tribulations of Young Married Woman
Who Wished to BE Economical.

Tribulations of Young Married Woman
Who Wished to BE Economical.
She was young married woman,
accredited With more than ordinary
common sense. AS an Illustration of
this, she had waited until after the
openings were over before buying a
winter hat. No time had been lost,
however, for she had studied the hat
question in all it's phases and knew
exactly what she wanted. 1t was to
be round hat, and must not cost a
penny over eight dollars.
For an hour or so she went from
one shop to another, ''just looking
on" After pointing out three or
four hats which particularly pleased
her she seated herself before the long
mirror with glass in one hand and
one of the hats in the other. This
hat, in her hand, was a beauty, but
on her head it was the most unbe-
coming thing she had ever seen.
The next hat was too large and
was trimmed too conspicuously; the
third too small and prim; the fourth
cost too much. The saleswoman's
smiles were less frequent and the
saleswoman herself less talkative.
The buyer found herself growing
irritable, but she congratulated her
self that she was not making such a
fuss as that woman in front of the
next mirror. Then she wondered
why'that fat lady with a moon face
insisted upon choosing the most ri
diculously small bonnets, while the
woman with long and sharp face
spent her time gazing at herself from
underneath a broad brim with a
towering mass of feathers above.
Suddenly she saw a jaunty turban
The coloring was stylish, and when
she tried it on it was just what she
needed She was sure it was becom-
ing, because the saleswoman agreed
with her that it was. Then it gave
her very comfortable feeling to
know that it only cost $3.50. And
so, even if she had spent six hours in
getting it, together with incidental
expenses amounting to ninety-fve
cents, she was satisfied, it seemed
such a sensible investment.
After dinner that evening the hat
came. One glance in her own mir
ror, and, oh, what a difference! It
was the worst little hat; she couldn't
see why she had bought it. She
looked disfigured in it, and if she had
to wear that hat all winter she would
not go out at all.
She put the hat in its bandbox, the
box high up on the closet shelf, and
then cried.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Honesty Appreciated.

In Persia truthfulness is at a pre-
MUM, as the English resident soon
discovers. For some time after his
arrival he is the victim of his serv-
ants, of the tradesmen, and indeed
OF the natives in general. AS DR..
Wills says, he buys experience more
or less dearly, but, having bought it,
he is able to correct his mistakes one
by one.
Gradually he takes root in the
country. He hits it off" with the
Persians. Thesolitary makes friends
real friends, not mere acquaint-
ances-and strange to say, these
friends are often from the priesthood,
the most fanatical among the Mos
lens. And these oriental friends
always confess that what originally
attracted them to their new ally is
the strange fact that an Englishman
doesn't lie.
In Persia, the great hotbed of lies
and intrigue, the man who does not
lie is indeed phenomenon. Very
soon the Englishman is invited to
dinners, to marriage feasts, even to
picnics, for he is lion, and the leo
hunter exists even in Persia.
Little by little the influence of ''the
man who tells the truth" begins to
spread. Disputes are referred to him,
for is he not the only judge in the
place who does not hunger for
bribeG An unpaid arbitrator, he "em-
bodies the law" in many a knotty
dispute. There are no fees in his
court, and the reference being by
mutual consent and purely unofficial,
there can be no appeal.-Youths

Gagged Switchmen.

Henry Meyer, a stationary engi-
neer, of Alton, Ills, is the inventor of
switch protection which provides
for an iron cage over the switch
stand. Into this cage the switchman
must go in order to unlock the switch.
When he throws the switch to the
side track the cage closes and makes
him a prisoner. He can only get
out by throwing the switch back to
the main track. An open switch in
case of accident will thus hold the
party to blame where he can be
found. New York Telegram.

Worshipers of Beauty.

&There are certain windows on
Broadway which attract more curl
GUS crowds than other windows, and
yet the curious ones rarely go in
and buy. These windows are those
wherein are displayed the photo
graphs of celebrated women. Most
of the people one sees in front are
women. Most of the pictures one
sees in the windows are portraits of
famous or at least titled British wom-
men, sowe of them said to be beauti-
full. The duchess" 'lady," "prin-
cess, ""marquise" and madame" are
all there, and as a rule pretty much
all in sight. I don't know whether
our noble female friends across the
water had these portraits taken for
this purpose, but it would certainly
be very gratifying to feminine vanity
to know of these never ending
crowds of Broadway admirers.
And the most peculiar thing about
it to me is that you will rarely see
any good looking women studying
these professional beauties. These
involuntary tributes remind me that
the women who are always peering
into the diamond dealers windows
never wear diamonds. 1t is the wor-
ship of human nature of what is be
yond hope of possession. We value
most highly what other people have
unless it is poverty and the other
wise undesirable.-New York Her

In Caesars day
FFeSh trouble he would borrow,
For where he went,
Twas all in vain,
Past time was spent,
Today was plain
But where, where was tomorrow?
And so we see
Him gray and old,
And so he'll be
Through years untold,

He'll simply find
Just plain today,
Which lags behind
