Mr.. ROOSEVELT AND THE TRUSTS

The appointment of Attorrev Ga,

administration towards the trusts a

they were violating the law. Mr.. Knox

over the country. that the administra.

Knox as the champion of the Presi

The Battle Of the Nile.

But for pin prick there would have
been no battle of the Nile. At one
moment Nelson was fretting his heart
out in vain quest of the French, with
no one to furnish a clew as to their
whereabouts. Next minute the secret
was out-in ladys boudoir. Sir John
Acton, commander in chief of land and
sea forces at Naples, was in his wife's
room when her maid was putting the
finishing touches to her ladyship's
dress. The maid drove the point Of a
pin into her mistress and apologized.
Some one had at that moment handed
the maid letter from her brother,
French sailor, from whom she had not
heard for some time, and it's receipt
lad startled her. Sir John Acton, fore.
seeing possibilities, offered to read the
letter while the maid continued her at
tentions to her mistress. The moment
he had read it he dashed off to find
Nelson. The letter gave all the infor-
nation as to the whereabouts and in
tentions of the French. Upon this Mel
son acted, and the battle of the Nile
resulted from that pin prick.

Seeing six Generations.

A generation is admitted to occupy
on an average a space of thirty-three
years. Horace Walpole relates the fol-
lowing amusing instance of seeing six
generations: II was ten when 1 was
presented to George I. two nights be-
fore he left England for the last time.
This makes me appear very old to my.
self and Methuselah to young persons
if l happen to mention it before
them. If / see another reign, which is
but too probable, what shall 1 seem
then? I will tell you an odd circum-
stance. Nearly ten years ago had al
ready seen six generations in one fam
lily, that of Waldegrave 1 have often
seen and once been in room with Mrs.
Godfrey, mistress of James H. 1t is
true she dotted. Then came her daugll-
ter, the old Lady Wa]degrave; her son,
the ambassador; his daughter, the Lady
Harriet; her daughter, the present La
dy Fowls, and she has children who
may be married in five or six years.
And yet shall not be very old if see
two generations more, but if 1 do
shall be superannuated, for think 1
talk already like an old nurse"

LaceliiukinE.

The birth of lacemaking dates back
to the days of Greek maidens who
watched the spider make it's web and
copied the pattern with fine threads of
flax. The art has developed to the
point of producing brussels point.
which is so delicate in texture that the
dryness of the air makes the threads
brittle; therefore the makers Of the
finest kinds have to work in damp eel
lars, using magnifying glasses. On the
altar cloths and vestments of the
church will be seen the most beautiful
of the old rose point as it was made by
the nuns in their convent cells and ded-
icated to the use of the church. Every
one is familiar with the painting of
"Queen Bess, the Dress Lover" which
shows her with high ruffles embroid-
cred with seed pearls. The portraits of
Queen Charlotte display this keenest of
lace lovers in hoops of balloon-like
founces of her priceless lace. Queen
Victoria preferred to lay away in laven-
der boxes the piles of inherited laces.
