Chased by an Emperor.

Emperor Frederick William OF rus
sia sometimes would signify his reJec-
tion Of what he considered an absurd
petition by drawing on the margin an
ass head and ears. One day, q baron
Of ancient patent having complained OF
another baron taking precedence Oh
him. the king wrote on the peuuoh'
"Mere folly. Whether man sits above
me or below me, my birth remains the
same" Oftentlmes he would ask peo-
ple in the streets who they were, pc
culiarity which made nervous people
evade the royal presence. One DAY
when man saw the king approaching
he took to his heels and ran, but Fred
erick William pursued him In not
haste and when he overlook him asked,
"Why did you run away from meT
sFrom fear" answered the man.
whereupon his majesty gave him q
heavy thwack with his cane and SAID
that he ''wished himself to be loved and
not to be feared"

Nice Little Love story.

A dreamer and q man Of action loved
q woman.
The dreamer said: II shall write
verses in her praise. They will touch
her vanity, and she will love me for
them"
But the man Of action said: "How
old fashioned l shall corner the stock
market. and that will bring her"
So the dreamer wrote verses, and he
induced n friend Of his who ran mag
azine to print them. And the man OF
action cornered something or other ana
became n Millionaire.
In the meantime the girl married a
man who inherited his money and
lived happy ever after.
But the dreamer was so proud or MS
verses that he didn't care, and the man
of action was so busy that he didn't
care
The only one to suffer was the man
she married.-Smart Set.

rirhters In London streets.

The reign Of George II. was a great
fighting time. Every man who went
abroad knew that he might have to
fight to defend himself against footpad
or bully. Most men carried a stout
stick. When DR.. Johnson heard that a
man had threatened to hOrsewhip him
he ordered a thick cudgel and was easy
IN his mind. There were no police, and
therefore a man had to fight. 1t cannot
be doubted that the martial spirit OF
the country, which was extraordinary
was greatly sustained by the practice
Of fighting, which prevailed alike in all
ranks.

day IN the year by any woman with
benefit. 1t does not force results. but
corrects arrangements Of the menstrual
