MAY WANT AN HEIRESS
HEIR APPARENT OF SIAM is TO
VISIT THE WEST
Suggested That Visit Will Afford an
Opportunity for Some ST. Paul Girl
to Capture a Title and His Hishness
at One and the Same Time.

The heir apparent to the throne of
Siam is to visit St. Paul. Naturally the
announcement awakens the liveliest
interest. o besides being a prince the
royal visitor is an opportunity. He is
described as matrimonially eligible and
distinctly handsome. 1t has long been
the fashion for American girls to as
pire to titles. But up-to-date in every
thing else, the st. Paul girl has been
sadly remiSS in this particular. To
our own knowledge not a single st.
Paul girl is to be found in the ranks of
either the English or the Siamese no
bility. The loss, of course, is on the
other side of the pond, but the fault,
undoubtedly, rests with the st. Paul
girl. Like the mountain, she has stead
Easily refused to go to Mahomet. Is it
possible that MahOmet, in h person
OF the prince of Siam, has decided to
come to her?
To be consort to a king-even a king
of Siam-is, we think, a position dis
tinctly worth while. OF course, as an
objection, there is the matter of color.
We fancy the heir apparent is not
blonde. But after all the prejudice
against color is largely local. 1t has
not prevented English maidens from
forming alliances with indian rajahs.
And doubtless in time one would get
used to a husband who was a perpetual
reminder of an oriental cosy corner.
The prince will visit America to in
spect the factories" Phya Akharaj
Vradhara has assured us. Phya is the
Siamese minister. We suspect the ST.
amese minister of diplomacy. 1t is a
long journey to come to inspect facto-
Ties, and rumor has it that the royal
Golfers of Siam are low. And from
time universal low royal Golfers have
spelt foreign matrimonial alliances.
Doubtless factories in this case spells
"heiresses."

Bits Of Eeminity.

Among new ribbons is one of crepe
de chine.
Sashes of tucked chiffon are dainty
things to wear with thin summer
gowns.
Newest collars for men are of the
fold style, the outer fold being a
tri1e shorter than the band and the
points rounded.
Tiny fans, all of plain ivory, are col
lege fans. In one there is a line of
yellow and black at the top and lower
edge and in the center the Princeton
flag in colors.
To avoid that ugly bagginess at the
wrist which anything made to pull on
over the hand usually has, mitts are
made open at the wrist and fasten
with hooks.
Enameled daisies are attractive
brooches, the petals done in white, the
center of gold, a very good imitation
of the center of a daisy, and in the
center of this, in some of the flowers,
is set a good-sized diamond.
Of course, black and white checks
are to be seen in bathing suits this
year. AS the black and white checked
frocks are trimmed with bright red,
so the bright red bathing suits are
trimmed with the black and white
check. One red suit has the sailor COL
lar, with the sailor tie, and the sash
knotted in front of it; the ruff1es on
the short puffed sleeves also of the
check as is the bathing cap, this one
OF the ordinary puffed variety.

persuasive conversation. As a result
it was evident some agreement had
been arrived at, for Brown topped
out of the galley ana made his way
aft, whistling a popular air.
About 9 o'clock next morning Brown
climbe owe the ships side into the
dingy, carrying a somewhat bulky pa
per parcel under his arm. AS soon as
the steps at the pier were reached he
sprang lightly ashore, to be at once
encountered by one of the dirty blue
and white uniformed soldiers acting as
a customs officer. With the parcel I'M
der his arm, Brown made as if to pass
by, but the Turk caught hold Of the
sleeve of Browns jacket and pointed
to the suspicious object.
well, what's the matter now" de-
manded Brown. There's nothing III
it to interest you. It's for a friend"
The Turk shrugged his shoulders,
motioned toward the little w~hitewash-
ed customs house and muttered some
thing in which Brown distinguished
the deputy collectors name.
"Oh, l see. Djmet Effrendi," replied
Brown. You think he's got to be set
tied with before l take it up town.
Well, get way on, but 1 guess he'll be
sorry"
On entering the customs house
Brown was taken before Djmet Eff
fendi, a portly Turk, with a fez on his
head, a sword at his side and much
furnished gold lace on his uniform.
He was seated at a table, about which
several clerks were gathered.
The soldier proceeded to explain all
he knew about the parcel, which, be-
ing nothing at all, it may be presumed
was making a good case to prove what
a very alert and shrewd officer he was.
When he a finished his story Brown
was ordered to hand the parcel over
for Dimet Effendi's personal inspec-
ton. This with apparent reluctance
he did, declaring that if the deputy
collector found something inside 9TH
er than what he imagined, why, 1t was
the deputy collectors own fault.
With unusual eagerness Djmet Eff
fendi cut the strings nj began to un-
fold the wrappings, while the clerks
craned their necks forward, taking
note Of the care with which the con-
tents, somewhat bulky from suggested
outlines, had been EMBODIED. Present.

wrapper, and this he removed care

table before his Mortified gaze the fore

Catvifing a Turk.
By MICHAEL WHITE.

David Brown, second mate of the
American tramp steamer State Sena-
tor. lying off the port of Beyrout, was
sitting on his bunk endeavoring to
solve a problem. In a drawer over
which his feet were suspended was a
package containing some fifty watches
and trinkets which 1t was to his adj
vantage to place in the hands of a
business acquaintance on shore with
out undergoing the usual routine of
customs inspection. III other words,
his object was to avoid paying tribute
to the deputy collector, one Djmet
Effendi.
The delivery of the watches meant
a neal profit for Brown, which, added
to sums made at other ports of call in
a similar manner, would enable him on
his return home to fulfill a promise
to the girl of his heart. But of all the
ports at which the State Senator call
ed Beprout was the hardest in which
to transact a little business of that
nature,and as a consequence there was
more profit in 1t if successfully carried
out.
Brown swung himself off the bunk,
and, passing out on deck, sauntered
forward.
TITS up to me-" he reflected, grip
ping his pipeStem firmly between his
teeth. THAT rascal of an Effendi was
too much for me here the last time.
Now, how in thunder am l going to
slip the stuff in without being COM
PEELED to pay more than the deal is
worth?
BY this time he had reached a line
of hutches and coops where the state
senator kept a small farmyard. AS
there was no refrigerating plant OF
board, such live stock as chickens, a
few pigs and a sheep or two was pick
ed up at way ports and used for the
benefit of the cabin mess. Brown lean
ed over one of the hutches and scowled
across the intervening space of limpid
blue water to the old stone pier, where
several half-starved. necessarily cigar
ette-smoking soldiers kept, neverthe-
less, a pretty keen watch for just such
people as the second mate of the State
Senator.
At that moment there came a grunt
from one Of the occupants Of the
hutch, then more grunts and SquealS,
indicating that a dispute was in prog
ress. Brown stopped down and peered
into the hutch, when there flashed
upon him of those happy ideas
which sometimes spontaneously point
a way out of a difficulty.

lated. "Pll get ahead of that thief of
an Effendi and give him the scare of
his life"

The ginkgo, or maidenhair tree, is one
OF the most interesting trees in cultiva-
ton, but it has one drawback.
In the Northern states the fruit is not
commonly seen, but at Washington, D.

trees which line the main approach to
the United States department of agricul-
ture. The fruits fall on the pavement

disgusting odor, which is so strong that
residents in the neighborhood would be
glad to see the trees removed, in spite of
their beauty. One of the sights of Wash

Wanted rwn Buried

Anecdotes of the elder Dumas abound
az the present moment, the celebration of
the centenary of his birth having led to
a general search among "reminiscences.
The following is very characteristic of
the great writer: Dumas, it is well
known, was often in financial difficulties,
and was well acquainted with the ways
and methods of bailiffs. One day a per
son called upon him and asked him TO
subscribe 20 francs toward the expenses
of burying a bailiff. Twenty francs to
bury a bailiff?' quoth Dumas. ''Well.
I'm not in funds just now, but here's 40
francs. Go and bury a couple. "-Ex-

feature of the ginkgo tree has lately been
discovered. The male and female flow
ers are borne on separate trees. and it is
impossible to distinguish the sex until
the trees are large enough to bloom. Ex-
periments show that it is quite possible
to make a tree produce only male flowers
instead of female ones. Bud of the
male trees are inserted by the ordinary
process known as ring budding, which is
easily and quickly performed-Detroit

Prickly heat is due to various causes.
The treatment is simple. If the erup-
