A Quickly Infectious Yawn.

The better yawned his best, stretch

his seat Almost the next to yawn
was the man who had taken ND the
bet, and those in tho opposite seats
took up the chorus. Mon and wom~
en- in the cross seats threw the yawn
back at one another, and save for q
baby in arms every one had yawned
in less than one-tifth Of the time
stipulated. The two men got off at

All the world knows the story. The
Empress had both man and nature
against her. AS to the Corsican, she
had lived with him for nearly fourteen
years. She knew too we'll the futiIity of
resisting him. 1t would seem that all
e1pedients were useless. At length the
Emperor's mind was made up. He broke
his purpose to Josephine as gently as
might be, at MalIaaison. Tho divorce
was arranged on the 10Th and 10th of
December, 1909. The Bonapartes had
now full satisfaction. No child of jose
phine should ever wear the diadem of
France. Napoleon did as much as be
might to alleviate her despair. He left
her Malmaison, her title of Empress, and
pension Of two million francs.
After the fallen, Whom? Would the

LEGEND OF A COIN.
Why Abyssinias King Places Lion on
His Pieces Of Money.

! Why Abyssinia's King Places Lion on
His Pieces Of Money.
The king Of Abyssinia has plung-
cd into coinage of his own. The
coins present on the diverse side the
kings head with the tiara and the
inscription, "Melenek II, King Of
Kings of Ethiopia " On tho reverse
| is a crowned lion holding in his paw
crown with the legend, Conquer
ing lion of the tribo Of Judah" Do
you know what that means? If not,
read this veracious history, which
no Abyssinian ventures to disbe-
liove:
The queen of Sbeba was queen Of
Abyssinia After her famous jour-
ney to Jerusalem she had son,
whose name was Melenek, and whose
father was none other than the great
King Solomon himself. Now, when
Prince Melenek grew to manhood he
resolved on going to see the city Of
his father. Therefore he started on
his long journey with great escort
of soldiers and a following of camels
bearing presents. When he approach
ed Jerusalem, the people, who knew
not his history, hocked forth to SEQ
the gallant young prince, and be-
cause he was like King Solomon they
followed him into the city, crying
that the old king had been restored
to youth, The new king, presuma-
bly, Rehoboam, hearing their shouts
in the streets, was naturally alarmed
and held counsel with his wise men
and ancients as to whether he should
instantly bowstring tho visitor as q
pretender or receive him with the
hospitality due to friendly, because
distant, prince.
Fortunately for the Abyssinian
royal descent the latter counsel pre-.
vailed, and Prince Melenek was gra-
ciously permitted to present his gifts
and to see the splendors Of the tenn
pie and the palace. When the time
came for his departure, he requested
one boon-an exact model Of the ark
Of the covenant and it's sacred con.
tents.
This was granted him. But, be-
hold, there was certain priest Of
tho temple named Isaac who greatly
loved Prince Melenek for his rese1n-
blance to his father and was resolved
to go with him, he and all his fami-
~, into Abyssinia. Now, on the eve
of his departure he cast by magic
the watohman of the temple into q
deep sleep, and then he exchanged
the model of the ark for tho ark it.
self. And the ark itself, with it's
contents, be carried off into Abys-
sinia, where it remains to the pres
ent day in the cathedral, and copy
Of it stands in every church in Abyss
sinia. And as for the ark which
jeremiah hid away, and which lies
still in the vaults Of the temple, that
is only the copy.
And now you understand why the
king places on his coins an efigy of
the "conquering lion of the tribe of
Judah. Walter Besant in London
