In refusing to comply with the re-
quest of the queen for an extra weeks
holiday fer the Etonians in honor Of
the duke Of York's quitting Elton for
Germany, the governors of that seat of
learning have maintained its tradition

moner, patrician and pIebeian have
always been treated ON a footing of
perfect equality within it's portals.

As the slugger is not without a con-
siderable circle or ring of admirers,
it may interest them to learn Of an
English authority claiming that the
only son of prize fighter who ever
amounted to anything is the RI Hon.
William Court Gully, speaker of the
British house of commons. His father,
John Gully, butcher, and afterwards
prize fighter, grew rich and was a
member of parliament for Pontefract
in 1885. Speaker Gully incidentally
receives salary Of $4,000 a year.
As president Of Peru Eduardo Ro-
mana, who has just been inaugurated,
occupies a position of much greater
relative power than that OF the presi-
dent Of the United States. NominalIy,
Peru is a republic, but in reality, as
in the case Of most Of the South Amer
lean nations, the power of the state
is ceatered in the hands of the chief
magistrate. Congress registers his
DEGREES and the army either enforces
them or forces him to fee. The prede-
cessOr Of Romano in his Office, Gen.
Nicola Pierola, carried things with
high hand, after winning his office by
a good deal of hard fighting While
in Office he never went anywhere with
out at least a company of soldiers as
guard, and his palace was filed with
soldiers, ready at any time to prevent
an assassination

Essay on The Mouth.

"Your mouth is the front door to
the face. 1t is the opening to the cold
storage of your anatomy. Some
mouths look like hole in brick wall
to admit new door or window. The
mouth is the hot bed for tooth ache
and the bung hole of oratOry. The
mouth is tle crimson aisle to our liver:
it is patriotism's fountain aud the tool
chest for pie. Without a mouth the
politician would be a waDderer on the
face of the earth aud go down to an
grave 1t is the grocer's
friend, the orators pride and the den
lists hope. Itputs some men on the
and some men in all. It is
lunch counter when at.
maiden and tobacco's friend
when attached to man, it is the
home of the unruly member-the
tongue. Without it married life would
be a summer dream and dude would
lose half his attraction"
