Khaki for Uniforms.

It think it was in the year 1855 that
Lord Roberts, who had just taken
over the office of commander in chief
IN India. took up the question OF
khaki in the same energetic manner
in which he went into every military
question. He was early convinced OF
the suitability of this color for uni
forms in the field, and he went fur
ther-he issued an order to have the
whole equipment Of field and noun
tain batteries, including even the
wheels and guns themselves, painted
khaki. This was a striking change
from the dark color they had pre-
viously been painted. and which pre-
sented such q contrast TO the usual
surroundings of an Indian landscape.
The rage for khaki at that time was
so general that some wit proposed
that ell horses should be painted
khaki before being sent on service.
An excellent idea. but unfortunately
impractical till some one can manage
perhaps to breed out khaki horse
Biackwood's.

A ROMANCE IN TEA
How SIR Thomas Liptsn Got His
start In business and His
Great Success.

Thirty-six years ago, small and very
ragged boy used to wander open-eyed
about the bustling docks which edge
the Clyde at Glasgow. His delight was
to view the great ships from China un-
loading their fragrant bales, and be
frequently earned few pennies By
making himself useful here and there.
A year later he had risen in the world.
He was a messenger-boy now, earning
two shillings and sixpenee weekly-60
cents hard cash-paid every Saturday.
Even then he was not satisfied. and he
made up his mind that If he could not
afford TO get learning at school. he
must get 1t in the world. He shipped
aboard a steamer as a stoker, and
worked his passage to New York.
For some time he stayed in this coun-
try, supporting himself In half dozen
ways, and keeping his eyes open to
American methods Of business. He
made up his mind that Yankee shrewd-
ness could make money out Of groceries
in Glasgow; so he borrowed plentiful
supply of il and returned home.
His parents, happily for him, were
thrifty people. BY hook and crook they
had saved $4OO in their joint lifetimes.
Their son took the money as a loan,
and in a narrow street of Glasgow
started a tiny grocery store.
He was his own salesman, his own
bookkeeper, and his own delivery cart.
so he knew that his customers were
well served. Gradually they increased.
but not fast enough to satisfy the
young grocer. He worked, as he says.
95 hours out of the "a. That did not
suffice; he decided to advertise.
First, he bought 90 of the biggest
hogs to be found in Scotland. Next he
decorated them with brilliant ribbons,
and then, after every pig had been
labeled "Lipton's Monsters, plain for
all to see, he had them driven through
the streets of Glasgow. A sensation
followed. The town talked "Lipton,"
and Thomas Upton opened a new shop.
To-day 420 business houses take their
orders from Sir Thomas Upton. In
Chicago and Omaha be owns enormous
abattoirs which can supply armies with
meat. In Ceylon great tea plantations
belong to him, and fleets Of his ships
sail to India and China.
Sir Thomas has been generous with
his vast fortune. He drew check for
S125,00O and sent it to the princess Of
Wales when she was collecting money
for jubilee dinner for the poor OF
London. His munificence has frequent
ly drawn the royal attention, and It
was for his charities he was knighted.

known as straightforward and en-
thusiastic sportsman. The yachtsmeu
Of America found in him good oppo-
nent in a generous contest.-Youth's

INSULTS TO S0VEREIGNS
LIbeIOus Writings That Have Been
Leveled at Members of the
Mobility.

The criminal law of most. If not OF
all, civilized countries is sufficiently
strong to prevent the publication Of
writings the object Of which is TO bring
the rulers Of foreign states into con-
tempt. The rule Of English law, as
expressly laid down in Peltier's case
(''S.Ate Trials" col. XVIII. p. 530),
is that any publication tending 10 de-
grade and defame persons in situations
Of power aud dignity in foreign eoun-
tries may be treated as libels, particu-
larly when they have tendency 70 in
terrupt the pacific relations between
the two countries. The proper proce-
dure is by criminal information. The
rule is reasonable one, though capable
Of being used oppressively for political
reasons. There are several instances
Of prosecutions for such attacks upon
foreign sovereigns or their ambassa-
dors. Thus, Lord George Gordon was
in 1857 convicted of libel upon Marie
Antoinette and the French ambassa-
dor. Vint was in 1901 convicted Of a
libel upon the emperor of Russia, and
during the short period of peace after
the treaty Of Amiens Peltier was prose
cuted for a libel on Napoleon, and found
guilty; but. as war broke out again,
was never called upon to receive judg-
ment.
1t must be owned that in some of the
cases the libels were no more than at
tacks upon the policy or public acts Of
foreign rulers, in respect of which there
would be difficulty now to induce a
jury to convict. For instance, the worst
that Vint said of the Russian emperor
was that he was rendering himself OBJ
noxious to his subjects by various acts
of tyranny, and ridiculous in the eyes
Of Europe by his inconsistency. Theo-
retically, however, in Peltier's case the
judge seems TO have recognized the
distinction between publications d.
rected against the public acts Of a SOW
ereign and those which reflected upon
his person and character, II is the per-
sonal nature OF the attacks in certain
French newspapers upon the queen and
other members Of the royal family-at-
tacks sometimes embodied in coarse,
even indecent, caricatures-which have
aroused such resentment in Eng
land. When French comic paper pub
fishes a special number descriptive OF
the English character, in which, for ex-
ample, English steamers are depicted
as running down French fishing boats
and leaving their crews to drown, and
English sportsmen as tying up Indian
children to act as bait for alligators
no one thinks of protesting. Nor would
criticism, however unfair or dishonest,
of the policy of this country or the pub
lie men cause the same feeling of anger.
Some reputable French papers seem to
class the attacks of which we complain
with the remarks made in the English
papers during the Dreyfus case on the
conduct of French officers. If they
cannot understand the difference be-
tween criticism in matters of public
interest and scurrilous personal abuse,
it seems useless to try to enlighten
them.-Law Journal.
