THE REAL CORONETs.
How and When They Are Used by
Those Entitled to Use Them.

now ana when They Are Used by
Those Entitled to Use Them
From Vogue.
English noblemen are the only ones in
Europe who ever wear coronets on their
heads, and the sole occasion when they do
SO Is at the coronation Of the sovereign.
They hold them In their hands throughout
the ceremony, and at the moment when
the Archbishop Of Canterbury places the
crown upon the monarch's heal every peer
and peeress present dons his or her coronet
lnasmuch as nearly half of the house Of
lords Is composed Of peers created by Que en-
Victoria, 1t Is probable that none OF them
mas taken the trouble to provi lie himself
with the silver coronets lined with crimson
velvet OF their rank: and were the queen
TO die and the Prince of Wales to ascend
the throne there would doubtless be a run
on the court silversmiths for baubles Of
this character. The baron's coronet worn
by the poet Lord Byron at the coronation
or George w, and which was manufacture
ed for the occasion. is now in this country
and ~ the possession Of the proprietor Of
the Philadelphia Ledger, who has converted
1t into chatting dish for the humble vege-
table known as the potato. having removed
the velvet cap from the inside and turned
1t upside down, so that the four silver balls
constitute the support of the chafing dish
The only coronets that are to be seen on
the continent are those of certain media
tiZed princes-that is to say members of
TelsllIS houses VINO now form part
and parcel of the nobility. And then they
are only used for funeral purposes. being
borne on crimson velvet cushion immedi-
ately after the coffin while during the sery-
Ice in church the cushion, with the coronet
usually rests at the head Of the casket con-
tanning the remains. These coronets are
made Of, some base metal, plated or gilt
and are. of course, used for no other pur-
pose With these exceptions a coronet
merely figures a part and parcel of the
heraldic device of it's owner; and although
on one or two occasions tiaras have been
made to resemble coronets, yet they were
heraldically incorrect and worn by people
who had no right to assume any such her
aldic adornment. AS a rule, the nobility
are content to have their coronets figure on
their notepaper, their plate, their carriage
panels and the buttons Of their servants
livery. and that Is about all. II may be
added that there are even monarchs now
reigning who have not only never been
crowned. but who do not even possess such
an article. Thus, for instance, the Emper-
or of Germany has never been crowned
either as King of Prussia or as Emperor of
Germany. and the imperial crown has yet
to be made. The Kings Of Italy, Spain. Bel
gium, Bavaria and Saxony have none of
them been crowned. and 1t Is a curious fact
that the sovereign who makes most fire.
ouent use Of his crown Is that most simple
unaffected and democratic Of all the rulers
Of the old world. King Oscar OF Sweden,
who Is obliged to don IT each time he opens
parliament at Stockholm.

How the Girl in the Other Room Al

How the Girl in the Other Room AL
ways Knew What Was Going On.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
A prominent lawyer thought he had dis
covered a wonderful instance Of thought
transference the other day. He has two
typewriter operators. One works In his
private office and the other has a desk in
the adjoining room. or late he has been
puzzled, upon giving instructions to his
private stenographer, to be delivered to the
other typewriter, to find that she never
quit the room, Yet the girl in the next room
would always execute the order, just as If
she had been told explicitly what was re-
Quired. The attorney for long time has
been trying to account for this seerning
teiepathic communication between the two
young ladies'.
Yesterday he thought he would make a
test Of the matter. and calling his stenog
raphei. he said: Il want you 10 take down
this article OF agreement and give it to
Miss Blank to traDscribe." He then die
tated lengthy and technical document.
trying 10 make ii difficult as possible.
The stenoSrapher took it down and then
went TO her machine and began operating
it. The attorney watched her closely, and
saw that she never stopped her work. He
waited for half an hour, then he turned to
his typewriter and said:
'hiss So-and-So. | think You have for

oh. no." replied the young lady. Miss
Blank has ii finished and waiting tor you
out there"
This nonplussed the attorney. He was
sure his private stenosrapher had not left
the room and did not see how 1t could be
possible for such complicated agreement
to be transferred by telepathic communica-
ton. He went out to Miss Blank, who
handed him the agreement completed. The
attorney could not contain himself any
longer, as he said:
Miss Blank, l have been noticing some
thing strange for the past month. VIII
you tell me how You receive my instruc-
tons from Miss So-and-So without her
leaving my room? Here you have tran
scribed very difficult dictat ton, and i am
sure you have had no communica ton with
her
The Young lady began TO smile and said
MIR. -, You should not be so sure tina [
We have had no communicati ton. We can
converse with each other when the door is
open Just as We'd as II We were in the same
room. No, it's not thought transference
but plain teiegraphy. You See Miss So
and-So and l have learned telegraphy re-
Gently, and We practice in this way We
found the space bars of our typewriters
make perfect telegraph keys, so that We
can send messages just as well as with a
regular telegraph instrument. So it's not 81,
mysterious after all
The young lady showed her employer the
manner or sending a message, and he be-
gan TO think how easily some mysterious
incidents could be explained II we only
knew the truth.

Last June Dick Crawford brought
his tWelve-mOnth-Old child, suffering
from infantile diarrhoea, to me. 1t
had been weaned at four months old
and had always been sickly. l gave it
the usual treatment in such cases but
without benefit. The child kept
growing thinner until it weighed but
little more than when born, or per-
haps ten pounds. | then started the
father to giving Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and DiarrhOea Remedy. Be-
fore one bottle of the % cent size had
been used marked improvement was
seen and it's continued use cured the
child. Its weakness and puny consti-
tuition disappeared and it's father and
myself believe the child's life was
saved by this remedy. J. T. MARROW,
