rich design, as complicated as the bowl.
 Tho old fashioned loving cup had four handles upon the bowl to aid in passing it.
 Kaiser Wilhelm has a loving cup fash toned from a high horn. He uses 1t at his bunting lodge after a day in the forests This is so constructed that it is impossi- ble to drink from it without spiiling the contents. The maker was desirous of se- curing very fine mouthpiece upon four sides of the cup. So he carefully cut the horn into q emah curve for the lips. Then it spread out, making a very beautiful drinking cup. When the emperor saw it he was highly delighted, but on lifting it to his lips, he spilled the contents over himself The mouth was too narrow
 The maker oc the cup was terribly an noyed at the accident, but the kaiser only laughed and kept the cup just as it was fer a practical joke upon his friends. They say, in great confidence, that each of our ministers to Germany has had the horn trick played upon him.

 A loving cup costf-its weight at least.
 A New. York jeweler told a member of tiIe Union club, New York City. how to estimate the cost of a loving cup.
 Take any loving cup of the size you de- sire and weigh it. Compute it in silver celr. Add to this sum just an equal amount for workmanship. Add to this the cost which you pay for the design and you get the amount which you will pay fer sterling silver loving cup. There are certain firms that add something for the name. You can get a good small sized loving cup for S100, unless you want some thing fancy.
 The finest loving cup ever made was ex- ecuted for certain millionaire who be- came benedict Faster week. It was a gift at the fa,eweii bachelor dinner from the usbors and best man. This cup was of sclid gold. It weighed ten pounds. Its sides were embellished with figures of Cupid and family, each holding a loving cup aloft. In the depths of their little cups glistened ruby drop.

Nobody mentions Hobson nowadays. The '!Eero of the Merrimac" is unsung That little kissing episode in the west, when the figures of the kisses ran up into the hundreds, settled the Hobsonites. No man could with respect write in glow ing terms of a man whose record for an evenings kissing beat his own. Yes, and far out-distanced it's best chances. How ever willing the average man might be to test his ability in this line, the time, the pace, and the number of willing ladies would be lacking.
 To keep the memory of Hobson green, and to console him in his Manila exile, his almirers propose to have loving cup made for him, each person whom he kiss ei contributing a little to it. Even a quarter would complete a goodly sum.
 The design for the Hobson cup is not yet
