Century company's book on the Worlds

two weeks. The writing was done by
Tudor jerks and the illustrating by w. Z.

one Monday morning and by the close of
the week the illustrations and manuscript

printer. A week later it was published.
It contained over 300 pages with half that

AMERICAN PRINCE SSES.

The experiences of young married
lady well known in this city in getting rid
OF her princely husband will not probably
convey a lesson to unmarried ladies whose
papas are rich enough to make hunting
titled husbands a reasonably promising
industry. 1t is law deeply planted in
the human heart that each Individual
shall acquire knowledge by his own ex-
perience. The wisest OF men cannot
transmit their knowledge except by add
ing to the store from which all knowledge
is drawn. The flight of one princess from
her husband will not prevent a certain
young lady, also well known in this State,
from flying in the opposite direction. 1t
would be interesting if the actual princess
and the rich young lady who proposes to
become princess would get together and
exchange condolences. 1t would be an
interesting interview, but it would not
have material results. All the tears the
actual princess could shed would not pre-
vent the aspirant for princely honors from
seeing how it is herself

protection to California fruits. The Demo-

strange that Senators who are so

the protective policy when applied to iD-

persist in an effort to deprive other States
of the benefits of that policy. Senator
