Beau Nash, Who Ruled In Royal style
From His Throne In the Pumproom.
There was Beau Nash, a much admired
person in his day, when he ruled from his
throne In the pumproom in Bath. Every
thing was in keeping. There was Queen
Anne architecture and Queen Anne furni-
ture and Queen Anne religion and the
Queen Anne fashion in fine gentlemen.
What curious piece of bric-a- brac this fine
gentlemen was, to DO surel Art was as self
compacent as If nature had never been in
vented. He was not fitted for any useful
purpose under the sun, but in his place he
was quite ornamental and undoubtedly
very expensive. What multitudes OF the
baser sort ust be employed in furnish

So great was the impression that he made
upon his time that q statue was erected
to him, while beneath were placed the

The Misery of Fifth Avenue.

There is misery on the east side, Of
course, because there are a great many
more people there than should be and be-
cause there are sickness and extreme pow
erty there as we'll as evil passions and sin
and all the painful things one finds wher
ever human beings are gathered in consid-
cradle groups. But there is unquestion
ably unhappiness also on Fifth avenue.
Among all the wretched people in New
York it would be hard to match the APP
parent wretchedness of some persons whom
one sees driving in closed carriages in Gen.
trail park in winter. They look as If they
never had had any fun or known any emo
ton of real happiness. They look stunted
and comatose. No doubt many of them
are sick people, but many of them, too,
are overfed and overcoddled citizens who
have missed the JOY of living from too
great solicitude to retain the comforts OF
LIFE. 5. Martin in Harper's Magazine

HE PLACED HIS HAT ON THE DEAD TREE.
warm tears of sympathy and sorrow for
it. Now take your reward. whenever
You are in need, come to me and say,
Oak with the golden acorns, give me
what need.
As the voice died away the boy
thought he had been dreaming; that it
had been the wind signing through the
oak that had carried these strange
words to his mind. But he soon knew
their truth, for as he wondered the tree
shook and shower of golden acorns
fell into the basket he carried.
The boy wandered slowly homeward.
"Well, did you bring the mush-
rooms?" cried the brothers.
"No, but have instead some acorns."
"Then eat them yourself for we'll
give you none of our food. 4"
The fool spoke never a word, but lay
down ON the stove and fell asleep. AS
he turned shower of golden acorns fell
from his pockets on to the floor. The
brothers stared, then rushed to gather
them and took them to show to the king.
When asked where he got them, the
fool said in the forest, and the next
day the king had the woods secured by
hunting parties, but not one GOLDEN
acorn could they find.
Then the King demanded that the
fool should bring him cask full to the
brim of the golden acorns, and when
his father told him the fool said:
1.-THE king does not ask; he CON-
mands shall not obey him. +"
Enraged, the brothers pulled him OIL
the stove and sent him again to the
woods.
The boy went to the oak and said:
coax with the golden acorns, help
me in my distress and give me what l
need. "
The tree rustled, and instead OF acorns
down dropped a small green cloth, aud
the oak said:
"Take care of the cloth and keep 1t.
In time of need say, Cloth OF wonder
let who is hungry and thirsty and here
all he needs. f"
The fool thanked the tree and started
home. wondering what his brothers
would now say and thinking how pleas
ed his mother would be-. But he met a
becear who asked for an aims, and the
fool Immediately spread his cloth and
pronounced the magic words.
There was a rushing in the air; some
thing shone above them, and the cloth
| was Immediately covered with feast
fit for king. There were numberiess
dishes in gold, goblets filed to the brim
with hydromel and bottles full OF the

How 10 Cultivate a Pretty Instep.

The eyilly disposed person who invented
spring heel shoes has thousands of ugly
flat feet for which to render account. The
nervous strain on the body caused by the
pounding of the heelless shoes on the hard
ground is very considerable. And, more
than that, it is almost impossible to carry
the weight on the balls of the feet under
such circumstances. OF course high heels
are equally injurious but a heel of medium
height with good width will allow the in
step to develop as 1t should.
To cultivate the instep to its proper arch
no exercise Is so effective as this: Stretch
the foot downward, the toe always endeav-
oring to reach point just beyond itself.

HIS GRACE THE DUKE,
The Severed Head of the Duke Of SUFFOLK
Still Preserved In London.

The Severed Head OF the Duke Of Suffolk
stnl Preserved In London.
On the esd of February, In the year
ls54, Henry Grey, duke of Suffolk, the
father OF nine days queen and the in
genious architect of his own calamity, was
led from his chamber In the Tower to a
spot on Tower Hill and promptly decapi-
tated, as a slight testimonial of the queens
appreciation of tho part he had played In
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS conspiracy and some
collateral enterprises. Thus, like Column
bus, he got another world for his recon-
pense.
This Is known of all men, or nearly
All men, but not one In thousand of
those who know IL Is cognizant of the
fact that the head of the Duke of Suf-
folk In an almost perfect state of preser
vation, can be seen to this day In shabby
old church somewhere near the Thames,
at the lower end of the city, the Church Of
Holy Trinity. 1t may be noted here, not
irrelevantly, that an interview with his
grace costs from 2shillings to three and six
pence per head-your own head, mean.
1t appears that shortly after the execu-
ton of the duke-on the night following,

| cured by some faithful servant and taken

many and many year. The secret of It's

| relic is generally accepted, though there
| are iconoclasts who believe it to be the
| head of Edmund de la Pole, earl of Suf-
folk who also passed by the way of Tower

ONLY A STUPID BOY.

Shall tell you story that heard
once? 1t Is about boy who was consid-
cred very stupid. Indeed he was
thought to be quite foolish. But it
happened in land where the foolish
seemed to be under the special protec.
tion OF Providence; otherwise the story
OF this boy had never been told.
To begin, then, he was one of three
brothers, but as different from them as
the snail is different from the bear. The
two elder boys were industrious and
thrifty and labored with their father all
day in the fields or the woods.
But this youngest son was the bane
OF their existence. All day he would lie
upon the stove. for it happened to be
cold country, and seemed to sleep. His
father and his brothers became so an
noyed that by and by they refused to
give him food to eat.
The boys mother, however, loved
him. What mother does not love her
unfortunate child with the sum of all
the affection that she lavishes upon her
more fortunate children? So the boy 8
mother fed him and clothed him and
loved him, and he continued to lie all
day upon the stove.
The patience of the brothers, howev-
ar, soon wore entirely away, and, COM
Ing home one night more gruff and
weary than ever, they turned upon the
youngest brother and, beating him with
a stick, told him to go into the woods
and gather basketful of mushrooms.
The stupid fellow was so amazed at
this treatment that he walked on with
| out thinking much what he was about,
when all at once he found that he had
walked right up to the stump of an oak
that had been shattered by lightning.
You must remember that the boy was
very silly, so what do you think be
did? He looked at the gnarled stump as
if he had never before seen the like,
and then he spoke to it:
"You poor tree Your brothers all
stand up strong and wear beautiful hats
of green leaves. Your head is bare. You
will take cold. Perhaps you are foo
like me. Then we are brothers. Here,
take my hat. +"
And saying this the fool placed his
hat on the dead tree and wept over il
tenderly.
Suddenly there was rustling in 9
great oak near by, and, to the terror Of
the youth, mans voice spoke from ou
the huge trunk:
Fear not, gentle boy. am the ia
