In the fifteenth century coaches ap.
pear to have been used in professions
or other public ceremonies, more as an
ornament than anything else, if we may
Judge from the clumsy form Of the We
hicle. The entrance Of the Embassador
Trevasi into Mantua III carriage Is
noticed as early as the year 1893, and
that of Frederick III into Frankfort in
q covered coach i'll the year 1916. 1t is
o curious contrast to the rapidity with
which new inventions are now adopted
that nearly a century elapsed before
the covered carriage was introduced
into England. Stow, in his Chronicle,
in the year 1866 mentions the in
PRODUCTION III these terms: "This year
Walter Ripon made coach for the
Earle Of Rutland, which was the first
coach tsaith he) that ever was made III
England. Since-to w.t. in ammo 1864
the said Walter Ripon made the first
hollow turning coach, with PLIERS and
arches, for her majestic, being then her
servant
"Also, in ammo 1884, chariot throne,
with fouro PLIERS behind to bearc
canopie with crowno IMPERIAL on the
toppc, and before two lower pliers,
wherein stood lion and u dragon the
supporters of the armcs of England. "
The sailors of the time Of Good Queen
Bess must have found it a difficult mat
ter to obtain bcrths on coach for their
cruise on shore. Even her majesty,
though she herself drove to st. Paul's
cathedral to return thanks tor the de-
livery Of her kingdom from the Spanish
armada, was accompanied by the privy
council and her attendants, who rode
on horseback. But Ivy the end of the
reign coaches and carriages became sud
denly popular. -Fircsido Magazine.

In the days when her majesty went
down to Windsor by road she liked to
be driven at II rapid pacc--a little too
fast to please her escort, especially the
officers who rode their own horses. A
gallant captain, afterward renowned
NJ F., was one day in command and
riding at the head of his troop. just III
front of him, with his back to the horses
of the carriage, sat the Prince of Wales,
then small child. The captain, direct
ly the party started, lifted his hand and
shook his fist i'll the little princes face.
The prince roared with fright, and his
royal mother, quite ignorant of the
cause, took him on her lap to pacify
him. When the prince was quiet and
resumed his seat, the captain again
shook his fist, and this was repeated all
the way down to Windsor. At tho end
of the journey the queen learned exactly
what had occurred and issued her com
mand that the officer should never com
mand her escort again. This was just
what the captain hoped would happen.

manded by his attitude in the recent

had rendered without reward His re-
marks expressed the sentiment of all

cepting the gift, Mr.. Wright, on behalf
of himself, his wife and son, wei
coined the guests to their home, and
with feelings of profound gratitude he
returned his thanks. He had simply

The Companion Calendar.

1t is said that the expense OF
making the Companion Art Calendar

could not be sold for less than one
dollar. Four beautiful female figures
are reproduced on four folding pages.
Each figure is Autographed in twelve
colors, being a true reproductiun Of
the origonal water-coior painting,
which was selected because Of its
excellence of design and charm of
color and tone. The size of each Of
the four folding pages is l0l by 6
inches.
1t is by far the best piece of color
work The Companion has ever offered
Both as a calendar and as gem of the
photographers art, it is SO attractive
that it becomes valuable addition to
the mantel or center,tab of any
room. 1t is given free to all new
