in the cellar of Charles Lanier of the
banking firm of Winslow, Lanier &
Co., OF New York. After the brandy
had remained with the banker for some
time it was sent by him as present to
H. Y. Bemis, here in Chicago. The
banker knew he could not send the
brandy to any one who would appreci-
ate such rare treasure as much as his
friend, Mr.. Bemis, who is considered
the greatest wine expert in Chicago,
and one of the greatest in the country.
The brandy remained undisturbed
in the cellar of Mr.. Bemis until one
day l asked Mr.. Bemis who had The
Oldest bottle of liquor in Chicago I'll
show it to you,' was the reply. Down
in the cellar a box containing a num-
Der of old relics in the liquor line was
opened. In one corner was the Old,
black bottle containing the brandy,
and on the neck was the date 1901.
In three years that grand old stuff
will be century Old said Mr.. Bemis,
as he tenderly pulled out the bottle and
blew the dust off the cork. Come
around in three years and We'll open
it-no, there is no time like the pres
ent; We'll open it now A corkscrew
was procured and inserted in the
ancient and time-honored cork Mr..
Bemis began to pull, but Centennial
corks come hard. AS the cardinal
pulled and thought of the great treas
ure in his hands tears came into his
eyes, but whether the tears were
caused by his eXertion, or emotions
inspired by the age of the brandy, was
a question difficult of solution Finally
alter long resistance the cork threw
up the slonge, and with a good-by kiss
let &C its hold of the bottle neck.
I'll didn't come out with a light,
superficial, 'bottled-last-year' pop. In
stead Of such a cheap, modern pop as
that, 1t gave a deep, dignified, and
melodiOus 'gug,' that would have i'm
pressed even a bother of California
claret. With tears still in his eyes,
Mr. Bemis poured out a couple of
glasses OF the precious liquor. The
liquid was bright, clear amber in color
and there was a sparkle to it like that
possessed by rich wine. Little time
was wasted in panegyrics and encom-
iums. The brandy was tasted, slowly,
for liquor Of such vintage is not to be
dashed off like a dose of medicine.
The delicacy and richness of its age
had not been useless. The liquor had
not spent its life in vain, for it had at
tanned it's purpose of becoming mellow
by the slow process of waiting Did
I ever drink any old brandy? Go
away, young man; want to remember
that bottle Bemis opened.

SALUTES OF RULES.

Emperor William is one Of the two
European mOnarchs who delight in
hearty handshake. He has strong
grip, and the person honored by him
with a clasp of the hand is apt to re-
member the dignity thrust upon him.
William usually kisses royal friends.
When he visits or is visited by
monarch, he kisses him three times on
each cheek.
Under no circumstances will Franz
Josef of Austria shake hands with
anybody except a brother sovereign. A
nod and kindly smile are all he ever
vouchsafes the most distinguished Of
his subjects. Nicholas of Russia
shakes hands with no one but a fell
low monarch. Relatives he kisses on
the forehead. Every one who comes to
see the king of Italy finds a hand
shake and hearty greeting if the king
likes him. Humbert is a democratic
king.
Only with relatives will the queen
shake hands. Outside her own family
she occasionally gives her hand to be
kissed. The prince of Wales, on the
contrary, likes to shake hands, and
always offers his hand to the person
who is introduced to him.-The Rival.

I can do nothing but annoy;
For little boys are all born bad,
And I am born little boy.

Whether it's Indians, trains or ball;

And wear your life out with our

And you'd be glad to have US go.
Th1e, nobody would be unkind,
For you dislike your children so.'

She put me off her knee instead
Of answering me a single word.

YOUR OWN PICTURE ON A PACK
OF CARDS.

Tor the seeker after novelty there is
a new fad. 1t is to have your own
picture on pack of playing cards, and
so make them individual. 1t is no
longer good form to buy an ordinary
pack of playing cards. Nowadays
they must be made to order.
Each card is decorated with your
own photograph and then, alter a
quiet little game, the cards may be
distributed as souvenirs. Or ii ex-
cessIve modesty prevents your using
your own photograph as a means OF
decoration, why, your favorite dog or
cat will do quite as well.
These new made-to-order cards show
not only a picture of an individual.
but ones club flag, favorIte horse, Cog,
or, in fact, any subject desired. Some
of the latest orders show monkey on
the back or each card. Others a par
rot and still others a rooster. Then
there are made o-order cards decorat-
ed with a tiny picture Of ones coun-
try house These cards were one OF
the surprises of clever hostess 70 her
guests at a recent house party.
The only trouble with this fad is that
people will insist upon taking souve-
Mrs from the deck, and a pack OF cards
that has been souvenired might just
as we'll be thrown in the ash barrel
unless they all disappear among the
guests. New York Journal

WASHINGTON'S WEDDING

Attended With as Much Pomp and
Splendor as Royal Marriage.
IN suit of blue and silver with
scarlet trimmings, and waistcoat of
white satin embroidered with buckles
of gold on his knee garters and on
his shoes, his hair powdered and by
his side dress sword, the bridegroom
Washington lowered above most of
his companions" writes William Per-
rine, of When Washington was Mar
ried, in the Ladies' Home Journal.
Mrs. GUSTS, his bride, did not reach
higher than his shoulders when she
stood with him before the old Episco-
pal clergyman in his full canonicals.
The mistress of the white house wore
costume which had also come from
London. In her hair and ears were
ornaments of pearl; she wore white
satin slippers, and on the buckle of
each was a diamond. The sprightly
little matron, with light brown hair
and hazel eyes, had a plump and pleas
ing figure, an easy and graceful car
i4dSC, SOulSIy lace anu uQo SQOul-
ders; and with her three bridesmaids.
and with the fine women Of the fami-
lies of the nefghboring domains in
attendance, there was a splendid dis
play Of the charms and graces of Vir-
ginia womanhood. Nor were the men
less distinguished. The country gen
tlemen in their gayest raiment, and
the provincial officers from Williams
burg in their uniforms, were headed by
the gallant Governor
Fauquier. Around him stood a group
of English officers, hardly less snowy
in their trappings, together with mem
bers of the legislature and other civ
ilians. When the bride entered the
coach, which was bright with the
Washington colors, of red and
white, and drawn by six horses
guided by black positions in livery,
the bridegroom did not enter with her.
There was his favorite horse, with his
tall body servant holding the reins and
waiting for him to mount. When
Washington mounted the richly cap
arisoned charger he rode by the side
of the bridal coach, closely followed by
a cOrtege of gentlemen on horseback"

came to an indefinite understanding.
and though she would not give an un-
qualified answer to his pleadings, she
had not the courage to stop him alto
gether. In recklessness she allowed
herself to drink in the sweets of his
passionate words: they would at any
rate be lifelong remembrance, even
though on his return he should cast
her of.
The operation was successful beyond
his hopes, and in few weeks he was
rushing back to his love-eyes shaded,
it is true, but with the certainty that
in a short time his sight would be
fully restored
L want to see Miss tombstone" he
said to the orderly at the hospital en-
trance.
Miss tombstone, sir? Which?"
why, the nurse

''Well-er-she's very good looking.
l did not know there were two"
"Oh, yes, sir; there's two. But l

And he was shown into the waiting
room.

Sister Kate drew back, startled. For
the moment she could not imagine
who this man with the shade over his
eyes could be. In that moment he
had drawn her to him, and was wildly
pouring out his love.
In that moment also the door again
opened, and Sister May, looking in,
saw all.
She faltered and stepped back, the
beating of her heart choking her for
the minute.
Stop. sir" said Kate, regaining her
senses. you must be Mr.. Hamilton?'
Yes" he answered, amazed, reIeas-
ing her

and wondering if she had seen or

"Ah!" he said
Sister May looked down, trembling.
"Are you May tombstone, my dear

Kate had disappeared; they were
alone.

he said
''But-you can see now?"
She looked up recklessly, and their
eyes met.

love."
Then she surrendered herself.

THE WOOD-THRUSH AT EVE.

At the wood-edge, what time the sun
sank low,
We fingered speeches., being loath
to leave
The cool. the calm, the quiet touch
Of eve,
And all the glamor Of the afterglow.
We watched the purple shadows
lengthen slow,
Saw the swift swallows through the
clear air cleave,
And the bats begin their hayward
flight to weave,
Then rose reluctantly, and turned to
go.
But, ere We won beyond the warder
trees,
From out the dim deep copse that
hid the swale
Yelled of a sudden flute-like har-
monies
Flooding the twilight, scale on silvery
scale,
As though we heard, far Ger the sun
dering seas,
The pain and passion of the night
ingale.
