When an American woman begins
housekeeping here her domestic af-
fairs undergo a radical change. To
begin with, she cannot have any car
pets on the floors of her dwelling and
she must live in the same house with
the horses. This is not so bad as it
sounds. On account of the warm eli
mate the the most of the floors are
made of stone or marble, and carpets
are not needed. The plan of most
Of the larger and finer houses provides
for the stable quarters on the first
floor, while the kitchen is on the roof,
and this arrangement is not at all UNI
satisfactory when one becomes accus-
toned to the novelty of it.

gin in earnest when she employs her
servants. / say servants, be-
cause there must be a number Of
them. The maid-of-all-work and the
all-round man servant do not abound
in these parts. The domestics here
are specialists. Each one insists on

An Emperor,a Whlms.

Emperor Frederick William of Prus-
STA sometimes would signify his re.
lection of what he considered an
absurd petition by drawing on the
margin an ass head and ears. One
day, a baron of ancient patent having
complained of another baron taking
precedence of him, the king wrote on
the petition: Mere folly; whether
a man sits above me or below me, my
birth remains the same" Oftentimes
he would ask people in the streets
who they were, a popularity which
made nervous people evade the royal
presence. One day when man saw
the king approaching he took TO his
heels and ran, but Frederick William
pursued him In hot haste and when
he overlook him asked; why did you
run away from me?' From fear"
answered the man, whereupon his
majesty gave him a thwack with his
cane and said that he wished him
self to be loved and not to be feared. .

George Rutledge Gibson, the banker,

in Tuxedo Park, spent a night few
years ago at the Country club at West
chester with two members of the
Stock exchange. They met at break
fast in the morning and the converse
ton naturally turned to the subject of
mosquitoes, which had been the prin-
cipal circulating medium the night
before. The large and tall member of
the exchange remarked that they had
not molested him, but the little man
protested that he had been devoured
by them and he energtically question
