 A very dapper little salesman behind the counter of one of the large depart ment store was much surprised when asked if he carried mems shirtwaists on his counter. Certainly we don't carry them," he replied. in answer to the query. we ain't had only one or two calls for them. Our real tony cus- toners never want them.

 Milwaukee Sentinel;
 One of the most interesting places in the State of Wisconsin is the little Vil- lage of New Munster, in the western part of Kenosha county, which, hidden away amid dozen little hills, presents a picture of a bit of ancient Europe transported to American soil. but t2st- ing none of the benefits of American civilization of customs. Munster, as it was originally called, was founded way back in the thirties, but while other towns have grown to cities. the village, with great natural resources, still re- mains Munster. with few hundred in- habitants.
 It is typical German village, such as could have been seen along the bank of the Rhine seventy-five years ago. Its payements resound with the tramping of wooden shoes, and nearly every one of its inhabitants till carrie out the old traditions handed down by the German ancestry. The inhabitants of the town almost without exception, are devout worshippers at the Roman Catholic church. and the old medieval customs are carried out. When the spring comes the people assemble at the church. and the priest lead them through the fields,

On Corpus Christi Sunday the entire town turns out. and. dressed in white robes. the priest and people bear the blessed sac rament through the streets in the an- cient custom known as Making the way of the cross" Children in white scatter flowers in the way of the pro- cession and all along the route are shrines built among the trees. at which the marchers stop to worship.
 It is thought that Munster is the only place in the United States where the old custom of erecting the shrines is now adhered to. and for this reason many devout people visit Munster to attend the celebration of Corpus Christi Sunday. A stranger is seldom seen in the town except on this day. The town has no railway or telegraph and mail reaches it only occasionally, but the

ABANDONED CROWNS.
Men Who Have Lost Their Thrones
 on Account of Love.

London Answers:
 At the moment of writing It seems quite on the cards that his infatuation for Queen Draga will cost young Alex ander of Servia his crown. We'll, it will not be the first time that throne has been lost for love. or some equally powerful motive. Those of royal blood are noa quite the puppets that some people try to make them out, and the desire to live ones own life is apt to prove irresistible even to men and wo- men born in the purple.
 Prince Oscar of Norway and Sweden might have had a chance for the crown of the dull monarchy, but his passioil for beautiful Ebba Munck bade him fling aside all thoughts of his royal rank. Threats. commands, persuasions were alike in vain. and on March 15, 1888. the young prince solemnly re- nounced his succession to the throne. and the same day was united to the lady of his choice. Universal report says that the Count and Countess of Wisborg" as the royal husband and his c )mmoner Spouse prefer to be known. have hadsa married life of perfect hap piness. and are wrapped up in each other and their four lovely children.
 The crowring grief of the head of tke unhappy Hapsburgs''. Is the memory of the tragic death of the Crown Prince Rudolf a dozen or so of years ago. Since that terrible day 1t is said that the Emperor Francis Joseph has never been known to smile. Rudolf of Aus tria had been urged. for reasons of state. into a marriage with Princess Stephanie. second daughter of King Leopold II. of Belgium; but his heart was with beautiful lady of the court. Suddenly Europe was startled and shocked by the news that Rudolf and his lady love had sought at the cold was denied them in life. Less than a year ago-to be precise. on July l, l90s the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir presumptive to the throne of Austro- Hungary. was married morganatically to the Countess Sophia Chotek, after duly renouncing the right to the crown of any children that might be born.
 Royal rank was renounced by Prince Max of Saxony in order that he might devote himself to religious work. The prince who was born in 1870. became a priest on July 26. 1896. Coming to Eng land. he laboTed for a long time in Whitechapel. and gained golden opin- ions as an earnest worker and a fer vent and convincing speaker.
 Prince Bernhard of Saxe-Weimar gave up his rank for loves sweet sake quite recently. He had had permission to change his name from the Kaiser. and will in future be known as Count Rraverberg His bride was the beauti- full Ella Brockmuller. whom he met in

inhabitants of the village never com plain and are seemingly content to live apart from the world. There is no regard paid to existing fashions in dress. and men and women alike stlil adhere to the old custom of wearing wooden shoes. The wooden shoe fac tory is one of the quaintest places in the little town. and here the shoes are made to fit the feet, which have never worn any other kind of covering. Few changes have been made in the vil- lage, Many of the old houses which were built in the early '40s have been
 closed for lack of tenants. No one ever moves to New Munster. and the houses are often vacant. Day by day more of the mare closing, and their former owners are slipping away to their narrow homes in the cemetery on the
 hillside. The younger people are not in touch with these customs, and many
