Royal BAD Language.

The Pail Mall Gazette says it still
remains mystery how the chief Eng
hsh authorities in church and state
ever succeeded in browning King
George l. Having come fresh from his
native Hanover, the first monarch Of
the Brunswick dynasty was to his new
subjects little better than a Melanesian
from the south seas. Not a word Of
English could he muster, while the
chief officials were almost equally ig-
norant of German. Latin, therefore,
had to be resorted to as being the one
possible medium of communication be-
tween them. A highly popular joke
originated from these singular pro-
ceedings, which stated that an i'm
mense amount of bad language had
passed between the king and his min
listers on the great day.

II Eatfafied LfneOIu.

Among Lineoln's callers one morning
in 1862 was a stranger seeking both
personal and official assistance from
the president and who brought with
him some letters lauding his loyalty
that bore the signature of a former
governor of Maryland. Lincoln received
the stranger with some warmth that
was not chilled even when one of the
attaches, who had overheard the con-
versation. interrupted to explain that
the signature must have been forged,
for the reason that the Marylander
mentioned had been dead several years.
The stranger showed guilt in every fea-
ture, but Lincoln, suffused with that
pity for the luckless that was ever his,
cheerily observed:

FLOWER AND TREE.

There Is pink variety of lily Of the
valley which is often grown in Eng
land, though seldom seen with us.
A palm tree which grows on the
banks of the Amazon has leaves thirty
to fifty feet in length and ten to twelve
feet in breadth.
Standard and "stand by" plants and
varieties should be the rule of the be-
glnner. Experiment with new flowers
and varieties only in small way.
Study color effects If you would have
a really beautiful garden The lowell
est colors often neutralize each other
sadly. Clear reds and magentas, for
instance, should not be close neigh
bors.
Know the plants as you would peo-
pie If you would have them respond
fully Find out their habits, their
likes and dislikes. The study is one
of unfailing pleasure, and it pays rich
interest in perpetual bloom.
Linnia plants are good for low hedges.
Plants foot and half apart will soon
run branches together, and the foliage
is dense from the ground up. The
flowers are almost as brilliant as those
Of the dahlia and are produced freely
from July to late October.

to educate my patients to like, and not
to dread, the visits of the doctor. In

treme cheerfulness.

Tips were always out Of harmony
with the independence and self respect
of true Americans. Good pay for good
work, with no unearned gratuities, In
hotels, restaurants and everywhere else
should be the custom. Tips are degrad-
ing both to glvers and receivers, and
the whole system Of tipping is unsound
and inexcusable. 1t cannot endure.
No club of any real distinction and
importance permits the giving of tips
within it's jurisdiction, and the prac-
tice of distributing gifts for services
which have been amply and even gen
erously remunerated has no basis
which is wise and wholesome Never
yet has there been an argument in
apology for this abuse which was
worth a moments consideration.-New

Moslems always battle before they
pray They would not dare enter the
house of prayer with unclean hands or
feet or faces; hence when the muez-
zin's call is heard from the minaret
five times a day faithful Moslems go
first to the fountains that are found
outside Of every mosque and battle
themselves. There are innumerable
lighthouses also in which genuine
Turkish baths and massage are given.
At the same time their houses are
positively filthy-too filthy, as a rule,
for human beings to occupy-and the
streets of Constantinople and every
other Turkish town are indescribable
in their nastiness. The clothing they
wear is as dirty as their bodies are
clean, and their food is often unfit for
