DESCENT FROM KINGS.
Blood of Millions of Commoners Tinted
With Royal Blue.

From the London Chronicle
The Australian NJ. P who recently boast
ed OF royal language must now recognize
that the statement is one of those things
which are better left unsaid. After many
years Sir William Harceurts reference to
his descent from the Plantagenets is still
remembered against him. Kings as an
cestors are, indeed, almost as common as
piackberries. More than thirty titled fam
iiles trace descent from Edward I, and thir-
teen peers from Henry VII, while in the
lowest classes there are hundreds of people
whose blood Is tinted with the royal blue.
oniy feW years ago the sexton at St.
Georges, Hanover square, was shown to
BE- ike Baroness Burdett-Coutts, a descend
ant or Edward III, and Halesowen
butcher and Dudley1Fforgeman can trace
their line back to Edward I.
nat is the value of such pride of pedi-
gree! EVERY person has two parents, four
sranoparents' eight great gra ndparents, and

merely ten generationsdthe ancestors of any
person number thousand in direct line.
calculating thus. and supposing none of
our prosenltPrs to have 'intermarried with
IeiatiVes eacn one of US had at the time of
the Norman conquest many millions of d.
rect ancestors. AS SiroWilfiam Groves said
TO the British Association ''the law Of
propaoli1ties would indicate that no two
people IN the same country taken at haz-
ara; would have many generations to go
PACK before they wohlfi find a common an
cestor. Thus each and every man Of the
present day may safely claim king or at
ieast belted earl as an ancestor. One of
tne arguments against the royal marriage
act on its Introduction in 1772 was that
t .here were $1,000 people of blood royal in
the kingdom, and that If the bill became
law In course of time the whole population
would be in state Of wardship to the

which had creaked through the town after

of light" She is the witty and kind-hearted
Madame Duperron who at her newspaper
kiosque on the Boulevard des Capucines,
directly at the corner of the Rue Scribe,
has been for twenty years a source f>com-
fort and information to Americans and
English on their travels, for the reason
that she speaks English with perfection
During all these twenty years she has not
been outside of Paris.
All day, from 8 am. till l am. she sits
dispensing papers, while she watches the
gay throng and chats with old acquaint-
ances including our ambassador and many
members of the Jockey Club across the
Rue Scribe.
She never goes to a theater, though they
are open to her. She never visits picture
galleries, though she knows a hundred ar
lists. She does not even read the papers
which she sells and with whose writer's
she chats daily. Yet this old lady says:
If l left Paris l would surely die!' And,
more than this, she would die if she left her
newspaper stand, where. red-cheeked and
bright-eyed at the already ripe age of sew
enty-three, she holds kind of daily salon.
What is the charm of Paris for all such?
Charm Of It ALL:
1t is the charm of the street, the charm
ing shady promenade, the street made
beautiful by architecture whose peculiar
character is reserve and quiet good taste,
the street In which moves witty, pleas
ure-seeking population.
1t is IL m.
Throughout the whole length of the bou-
levard-throughout all Paris-there steals
on the air a subtle, aromatic perfume.
Paris-in-the-morning ends with the green
hour, the hour of absinthe.
Twice a day, at IL am and pm, the
green hour reigns. Men who look tired
come strolling up to the cafe, choose care
fully their little table on the sidewalk, and
sit with a sigh of great relief
1t is the sigh of one who anticipates re-
lief. The deft waiter takes the order. The
word -"absinthe" is not mentioned. Instead
the man who sighed mentions the name Of
his favorite brand-''pernod," terminus"
"cusenier," as may beading pure or
with gum" or with sugar or with any
of dozen sirups. Five times out of six
it will be pure"
The waiter pours the green liquid into a
large goblet. one-third full to be moderate,
one-half full to please the hardened drink
er. Then he hands his customer the water
bottle. He who drinks it makes the mix
ture. He pours slowly, filling up the COB
let to the brim. The liquid turns first
cloudy yellow. then an opalescent greenish-
yellow.
His Heart Grows Bright.
The Partisan gulps down a mouthful. His
eye brightens. Another gulp. His other
eye brightens. Filling up the deficit with
water, he stares at the changing lights of
red, blue, violet, pink and gold that play in
opalescent fluid. Then he glances at the
moving throng. And as he drinks and
glanceS, the tired feeling leaves his back.
