On the ceiling of n of the rooms in
Sans Souci. the world renowned palace
of Frederick the Great in Prussia, is
the painting of a huge spider with its
web. The reason for this odd decora-
ton is that one morning just as the
king was about to drink his usual
morning cup Of chocolate in this room
he turned aside for something. and
when, a moment later. he took up the
cup he noticed a small spider had
fallen into it. Immediately upon Civ
ing an order for a fresh cup a pistol
report was heard, and it was discov-
cred that the cook had shot himself.
The reason for this, ii was later found
ors was that he had poisoned the
chocolate, and of course when a fresh
cup was ordered he supposed his
treachery had been discovered. 1t IA
in remembrance of this narrow escape
that Frederick ordered a spiders web
to be painted on the ceiling.

BIT or FRENCH HISTORY.
An Empire Lost For Want of the
Right sort of Riding Habit.

An empire Lost FOR want OF tne
Right Sort of Riding Habit.
An old legend which makes no pre-
tense to truth tells how a kingdom was
lost for want OF a horseshoe nail. But
a volume OF sober historical and bio
graphical purpose, written by Count
d'Herrison, makes IT appear that the
Empress Eugene, after the battle of
Sedan, lost the chance to preserve the
empire of her husband by not possess
ing exactly the right sort of riding
habit. 1t was the evening of Sept. 8,
1870.
The news of the surrender Of the
French army and of the Emperor Ma
poleon at Sedan had spread about Par
is. The city was excited, and there
was talk of a revolution and the ban
ishment of the imperial family. At
this juncture Emile de Girardin, a man
who was trusted by the empress and
who had had no little experience dur
ing the previous changes Of govern
ment, arrived at the palace of the TUT
leries. IF your majesty were to appear
on horseback in the midst of the peo-
plc,'' Girardin said, land the
%abdication of the emperor in favor Of
the prince imperial. your w assump-
ton of the title of empress regent and
the appointment of Theirs as prime
minister. the empire might be saved.
Something must be done to turn the
tide"
The empress accepted the advice. But
whom this leader of the worlds fashion
sought for a proper costume for her
performance it could not be found
Tie only riding habit in the Tuileries
was a fantastic one of green. embroid-
cred with gold and silver, made for a
festal hunting occasion, and the hat
was a not less fantastic three cornered
affai" of the epoch of Louis Quinze.
The empress felt that it would not do
to appear in this garb on such an occa-
sion. Her appearance in it might have
the opposite effect upon the people
from that which she intended. The
plan had to be given up. the empress
and the prince imperial were banishcG
and the Napoleonic empire was at an
end.

Some Words Go Out of Favor and
win Their Way Back.

The history of the race is written In
the words IL uses. As we grow and
change, so our language grows and
changes. Mr.. Leon Mead In his book
WORD Coinage" points out that some
words go out of fashion and come
back, like tan shoes and wide trimmed
hats, although the change in words Is
much slower than the change In dress.
In Sponsors day "forestall." "fain,"
~scathes," "askance," "embellish" and
"dapper'' were not considered good, but
they have since gained responsibility
and won their place In the language.
The seventeenth century regarded as
obsolete a number of Chaucer's words
Transcend" bland" sphere"
'blithe," franchise" carve" AN
them" One by one these words came
to life again and walk the pages of our
literature in full vitality. Other words
now indispensable which the seven
teenth century rejected are 'plumage,"
tapestry" tissue" ledge" 'tren-
chant" resource" "villainy," 'thrill,"
.-yelp," "dovetail."
Bacon ulO not nave u1e ROOu WOTu
encyclopedia but used the heavy
equivalent, "circle learning"
Fulke, the sixteenth century author
who wrote "A Defense of the Sincere
and True TRANSACTIONS of the Hole
Scriptures Into the English Tong" did
not admit "neophyte," homicide"
scandal destruction 'tunic," "des-
picable," rational" Another book
published in 1868 puts the stamp Of
censure on "oblique," radiant" 'adop-
ton" 'caress," "amphibious," "hori-
zontal," "concede," '%articulate," "desti-
nation" compensate" complicated"
and "adventitious."
1t is hard to trace the history of a
fashion in words. Seldom do we have
the precise record hat Chesterfield fur
nishes us in a letter in which he says
that he was present at the birth of the
word Irritation" on the lips of a beau
tifui Even with that record
we cannot tell why "fiirtation' remain
ed in the language and was not drop
ped like hundreds OF other new coin
