La envidia, en- sus negFuras repugnantes
tiene tambien su m6ritd su alteza;
Y lleva un sello de immortal gFande1a
cuando a'ienta en 81 pecho de gigantes.
! Qui@n sabe 81 Ell s'Quijotes de Gervantes
fue una sonrisa amarga de tristeza
al YER rendida su genial caheza
entire tantas de imheciles triunfantes
Esa envidia del genio, que ennohlece,
no es la vuestra malvada camariila
del 6dio ruin, que aehica y envilece
Yosotros soils, oual perro de trailla,
que la vista del latigo enmudece,
Y ante indefensa res soberbio ohilla.

had recently occurred and urged him to
stay at home. He finally agreed to give
up his job after that run. With this

the same and keep it in order. The
government rejected the proposition, III

Queen Alexandra, it is said, has a
great horror of the microbes. She will
in no case accept Il piece of money I'M
til it has been thoroughly cleansed.
Whenever a check is turned into hard
cash for the queen use the coins are
plunged into basin and scrubbed in
Il lather of spirits of wine, water and
s ap, to which has been added few
drops of carbolic acid. After this
bath the coins are placed in the royal
purse and her ma esty is ready to start
out on her purchasing tour. But when
she tenders coin in payment for any
article On which change Is due the
change is never on any account hand
ed to the queen, but Is turned over
to her lady in waiting. At the end Of
he shopping eXculs on all of the coins
received in the way of change from
tradesmen are put into the microbe-
destroying bath before they get into
the royal purse.
