ENGLISH PEERAoE
Divided Into Dukes, Marquises, Earis,
Vlscounts and Barons.

Divided Into Dukes, Marquises, Earis,
Viscounts and BArons.
Il am always asked a lot Of ques-
tions about the peerage," said A. L.
Jameson, Of London, at the Waldorf
Astoria, to a New York Tribune man,
whenever l am in America. One
thing that seems especially to bother
you people is that while a house Of
lords sxists nevertheless lords, earls
and even marquises are to be found
among members of the house Of COM
mons. This comes about from the So
called courtesy titles borne by eldest
sons and heirs. For example, take the
case Of the Marquis of Lorne, now
ninth Duke Of Argyll, who married the
Princess Louise. He bore the title Of
marquis during his fathers life by
courtesy. The peerage is divided in
to dukes, marquses, earls, viscounts
and barons, and the spiritual peerage
into archbishops and bishops. The title
duke is very old. Hannibal was called
Duke of Carthage. The Doge Of Ven
Ice was a duke. A duke is addressed
as His Grace and Most Noble, and by
the crown as our right trusty and
right entirely beloved cousin. Mar
quises were formerly military leaders,
who guarded the limits or marches of
the kingdom. Hence, they were called
Lords Of the Marches, or Marquisas
They are addressed as Most Honor
able and by the crown as our right
trusty and entirely beloved cousin
Viscounts or vice countesses were
sheriffs in earlier days. They are ad-
dressed as Right Honorable and by
the Crown as our rightly trusty and
well beloved cousin Barons, origin
ally by tenure, then by writ and now
by letters patent, are bearers or sup
porters-from the etymology Of the
word-and are styled Right Honor
able and addressed by the Grown az
our rightly trusty and we'll beloved
The royal addresses sound like
game where you go on losing a word
don't they? The only title by tenure,
think, now existent among us is the
Earldom of Arundel, which the Duke
Of Norfolk holds by his tenre Of Arun-
del Castle, but this was confirmed by
special act of Parliament. Baronets
and knights are both addressed as
Sir but while the former is title
that holds with and descends in the
family, the latter exists only during
the life of the holder Sir William Van
Horne, who built the Canadian Pacific,
is q knight"

They had just returned from their
bridal tour when the husband gently
pulled her ear and said:
'NOw let US speak Of business, While
half of what have belongs to you, 1
do not propose that you shall have to
beg for your half. Being the head Of
the house, shall carry the wallet, but
propose to hand you over a certain

"a dollar! My wife trying to get
along on a dollar a week! Why you
little darling, you shall have at least
$40, and If that is not sufficient l shall
make it 500 or $50"
1t was the old story over again. He
cut her down to IS, 81, Sc, 50, $4 50,
and at length, when they had been
married about four months and she
asked him for a dollar, he turned On
her with:
"Whatl More money! Do you think
I've got a gold mine? What on earth
do you want money for"
"Ive got to get few little notions"
"But you can't want dollars

you will remember that these are hard

rha Pnre Food LAW.

The pure food law, which was en-
acted by the General Assembly last
year, has gone into full force. The OBJ
ject of the law is to stop entirely the
sale of food products which contain
harmful ingredients, and to compel
vendors of food products which are
adulterated with ingredients which
are harmless to brand or mark their
goods so that the purchaser may know
that that is the case and may govern
himself accordingly. Certainly this
is an excellent law, and consumers
will be thankful for the promise which
is made that 1t is to be enforced rig
idly. 1t ought to be copieo in every
state, says the Chicago Tribune.

Tbe MopIsflst and tle Dog.

A monkfish made a quick meal Of
an EastpOrt dog the other day and
was captured a short time later near
one of the sardne factory wharves
Very few monkfsh are seen in Pas
samaquoddy Bay, but at different
times they are found Of large size,
and have been known to come to the
surface suddenly and gobble up any
sea bird that happens to be in the
water They are among the homeli-
est fish that are found along the neigh
boring coast, the mouth being unusual
ly large, and fishermen have known
them TO swallow objects nearly as
large as themselves. In appearance
they resemble a big sculpin, and the
one killed here came in for a full
share Of attention from the many
spectators on the wharf. The unfor-
tunate dog was enjoying a swim along
the water front, watched by his owner
and a party of friends, when without
warming the monSfish came to the sur
face with open mouth, and the dog
went down without much Of q fight
for his life Later in the day some
boys We're spearing founders in shall
low water, when they saw the odd
looking fish below and with a boat
hook soon gathered it in. The dog
was found inside, but was consider
ably mangled by the sawlike teeth of
the fish, and il was noticed that the
dog was nearly as large as the entire
mOnkfish.-Lewiston (Me) Journal.

Awful Fear OF n Nervous Man.

I used to know a nervous man who
feared that he'd be robbed. Immense
precautions did he use, yet with that
terror throbbed. He thought thieves
might take anything-his folks, his
goods, his llfe-so when he went away
from home he always wired his wife.
He pursed his lips to keep them safe,
he used to hide his son; he always
kept his books well bound; he liked
tied games alone. or course he'd lashes
on his eyes, and, as it sometimes rains,
he took in all the shows each night
His arguments had chains. Ho
wouldn't buy a chainless wheel, all
though the neighbors laughed and
when he died he left a wish they'd
sink his marble shaft.--Yale Record.

nat mani, Oueer NTlsbop.

A fat citizen Of the seacoast town
of Lubec Me-, went down a ladder
at the side Of a schooner to get a
hammer he had dropped overheard.
He inserted his body between the
rungs Of the bladder, that he might reach
down and get the hammer from the
shoal water, and became stuck there.
The tide was rising, and he was res
cued three hours afterward, just in
time to save him from drowning the
water having reached within two
inches Of his mouth.

COLD AIR HEALTH.
Winter About the Best stimulant People
Can Have.

Can Have.
Many persons regard the winter sea-
son as an unfortunate visitation. 1t is
considered both uncomfortable to the
body and harmful to health. This is
an error. Cold Is a most potent agent
for the restoration and preservation OF
normal activity on the part Of the or
gans Of the human body. 1t is a wise
plan Of providence which gives us
change Of seasons. The winter cold
comes as tonic to repair the injuries
done by the enervating heat of sum-
mer. Summer, 1t is true, has many
wise uses in the matter Of health It
induces outdoor life, rids the system
of poisons through copious perspira-
tion and through the scorching rays OF
sun destroys germ life. Winter is the
great bracer of the system. 1t slim
ulates activity in every organ. When
cold attacks the surface of the body
the blood is set into more free circula-
tion as means Of bodily warmth 1t
is through the circulation of the blood
that the human anatomy is kept in a
state Of repair. When the food has
been digested and converted into
liquid form. 1t is taken up by the
blood and carried the rounds OF the
system for the purpose Of repairing
the waste places. When the cu;d
causes increased circulation, it also
brings about more perfect nutrition
Mans face and hands illustrate how
weather-proof the body becomes when
exposed to air. Continued activity in
circulation on the surface, caused by
the air coming in contact with the
skin, tends to nourish and thicken the
skin Thus mans skin grows thicker
in winter just as animals are supplied
with double coat Of fur. The saw
ages who dwell bareheaded in the open
air, are seldom, If ever, known TO be
afflicted with bald heads, while, with
the civilian who shields his scalp from
air, badness is prevalent The In
dians, who if not now, in former days
roamed our western borders, practical
ly without clothing to shelter their
bodies, became, through long ex-
posure, so Injured to the cold that it
gave them but little discomfort-St
