strolled toward the door. Immedi-
ately the Gar ordered him brought
back. He reminded the Englishman
of what had happened to the French
Ambassador and demanded how he
dared perpetrate the same offense.
Because" answered Sir Jerom
truculently, Il represent no easy-going
and amiable King of France, but am
the Ambassador of the great Queen OF
England, who does not veil her bon
net or bare her head to any ruler liv-
ing. And if any of her Ministers re-
ceive an affront, she is able to avenge
her own quarrel"
Now, at this answer all the Russian
Court held its breath, for all expected
a frightful outburst from the terrible
Gar. But instead of that, the Gar
slapped his right hand heavily on the
arm of the throne and exclaimed:
Look you here, you courtiers OF
mine. Here is brave fellow that
dares TO say and do for his Queen!
Which Of you would dare do as much
for me?

Shell Milliondires of
the Bismarck Islands

Naturally, after a week or more Of
practically no bartering, the traders
were disguised; and when simple old
islander finally approached them and
offered to buy something if they
would sell cheaply, they were in
frame of mind that enabled him to get
things at the lowest price. And he
bought and bought. At intervals other
simple natives came and bought cheap
from the traders, who were glad by
that time to sell at any terms.
And not until they had nearly sold
out at much lower prices than they
had expected to ask did the white
men learn that the simple old natives
who had bought so much from them
were diwarra millionaires, who had
cornered the shell-money market, and
thus made it impossible for most OF
the islanders to buy anything.
Then it was that progress stepped
in and upset the whole glorious
scheme of finance. The Germans sent
Governor to the archipelago, and he
issued an edict declaring that German
money would thenceforth be the legal
tender in all the islands.

that was one night when, as he was
about entering the presence of the
Gar. an attendant at the door de
manded that he give UP his sword be-
fore going through the door. He re-
fused Indignantly. The case was pre-
sented to the Gar, who declined to
alter his ruling.
Then did Sir Jerom Bowes loudly
shout to his men to hurry to his
lodgings and bear TO him his night
gown, for, said he, "since His Majesty
wills not that appear before him as
an honest soldier, he no doubt wills
that / call on him as an old woman.
For few moments all those who
heard the daring words were dazed
and there was an awed hush. But
again Mad Bozc won his point; the au-
tocrat. after glowering at the plucky
man for a moment or two, burst into
a great laugh and roared to Sir Jerom
to come in, sword, boots and spurs
And never thereafter did any one
question either the Ambassadors dig
nifty or the greatness of his Queen.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-03-27

statesmen gave him much good advice
about his course of action and how
best to conciliate the Gar so that he
should not be insulted or imprisoned
or perhaps even executed. They re-
minded him particularlyIof the story
of the French Ambassador.
Sir Jerom listened smilingly to the
warnings and the advice. Then he set
forth on the long and dangerous jour
ney to wild Russia and at last rode
staggering into the holy city of Mos
COW.
AS he had staggered into the city
so he staggered to the palace to pre-
sent his Queens letter and his other
credentials.
AS soon as the tall figure of Sir
Jerom appeared stalking towards him
without ceremony, Jan Vasilovitch
roared to him to retire, wait at ten
PAGES distance and hand his letters
over to a Court official.
The Russian Chancellor stepped for
ward with his hands held out to re-
ceive the papers. But Mad Boze mere
ly stared at him and said in voice
that rang through the reception hall:
"Her Majesty of England hath di-
rected no letters to such as your
He brushed past the amazed Chan
cellor, and still more roughly brushed
other Court officers aside until he stood
directly in front of the throne of the
fierce Gar.
Then he thrust his letters into the
autocrat's hands and stood calmly in
front of him, with challenging glare
The Gar half arose, as if to smite
the insolent man; but he thought bet
ter of it and opened the letters. Then
he treated Sir Jerom with just enough
respect to make it impossible for him
to resent anything, although many
small indignities were offered to him
daily.
Mad Boze got more and more an
cry as the days wore on; and at last
he got his chance to assert himself
The Gar, in the course of grand
reception, said aloud to his circle that
he did not reckon the Queen of Eng
land to be his equal. Mad Boze, who
was standing near by, as the Gar well
knew, Immediately pushed his way in
to the circle, raised his voice so that
everybody in the room could hear it
and said to the Cars face: Il, as
Ambassador Of her Majesty, do dislike
these speeches. The Queen, my mis-
tress, is as great as any Prince II
Christendom, equal to them that think
themselves greatest, and well able te
defend herself against the malice Of
any of them"
The Gar arose in fearful rage and
beloved that, if Sir Jerom Bowes
were not an Ambassador, he would
have him thrown downstairs and
hurled into the street.
Sir Jerom replied: Il know that
am in Your Majesty's power. But
have a Monarch who will bitterly
avenge any wrong done to me.
The Gar babe him leave his pres
ence. and Sir Jerom calmly slapped

LV1 prestige of the native mil
lionaires of the Bismarck
Archipelago.
Ever since the natives can remem-
Der, the money of these islands con-
sisted of the shells of small sea snail
known as diwarra The diwarra was
not plentiful, and therefore made an
excellent medium of exchange.
In the course of time certain wise
Islanders accumulated diwarra shells
until they had so many that they
couldn't possibly spend them, since
the products of the islands were linn
| tied So they wondered what they
could do with them
At last bright genius hit on the
idea of lending surplus diwarra shells
to those who needed some, and charg-
ing certain number of shells for the
accommodation. This was the begin
ming of what soon became thriving
banking business, and of course the
rich diwarra owners got richer and
richer, until finally there were real
diwarra millionaires in the archipel-
ago.
Before long, the value of diwarra
shells began to experience ups and
downs, Just as railroad stocks and
Government bonds do in this country.
1t would happen, for instance, that
one of the diwarra nillionaires accu-
mulated a lot of diwarra shells all at
once, owing to a number of debts fall
ing due about the same time. Then
he would go abroad in the island, Of
fering to loan diwarra money at low
rates.
At once the quotations on the sea
snail shells would fall and fall, and all
the other diwarra millionaires would
tear their hair and mourn, just as the
bears and bulls do now in the Ameri-
can stock exchanges when things go
wrong
When the white men first arrived in
the islands to trade with the natives,
the diwarra millionaires saw fine op-
portunity; and at once they set to
work to call in all the diwarra shells
that they had loaned out. Before long
they had almost all the money in the
islands.
Of course the natives were all eager
to buy the beautiful knives and cloths
and beads and axes that the white
traders exposed for sale; but the di-
warra millionaires had practically all
the shell money, so the bulk of the
population couldn't do anything ex-
cept stare and wish.
The traders were amazed at this
state of affairs, for they had expected
rushing business. They were per-
fectly willing to take diwarra shells,
for they knew that they could buy any
island products they wanted with
them, and thus make two profits. But
no diwarra shells, or at least so few
that it was hardly worth while, were
offered

Children, children" cried Mother
Snow, in despair, the guests are COM
ing, and we shall not be ready" and
sure enough, there came leaping
swiftly through the long grass a great
crowd of wild rabbits, who stopped at
a short distance from the little house
and lifted their quivering, eager noses.
''Oh, what darlings," said Maize,
who loved all little wild things.
They are darhngs,9 said Mother
Snow, and their manners are perfect.
which l wish | could say of some
others, and she sighed as Molly Cot
tontail pranced around the table with
her cap on one side and her apron fly
ing.
The guests arrived rapidly, and Ma
zie helped Molly lay at each cover a
lovely bunch of parsley, two pods of
peas, stalk of asparagus, lettuce
Leaf or two, some chopped cabbage,
and an apple
1T makes me hungry to look at it"
said Molly, shipping off bit of let
tuce, and munching it delieately.
Mind your manners, Molly" com
manded poor Mother Snow, who had
greeted each arriving guest, and had
seated them, one after the other, at the
lable.
Where is Soft Paws?" asked
Mother Snow as the last guest slipped
into chair. Just then there came an
appalling sound, at which all of the
rabbits jumped to their feet and stood
qulverlng-1t was the yelp of dog!
oh, oh, screamed Molly Cotton
tail, who had leaped up the bank, its
great big setter after Soft Paws!'
"Poor child, poor child~ walled
Mother Snow and trembled.
Like flash the wild rabbits rose,
and with one firt of their white tails
they were gone
Nearer and nearer came the sharp
yelps.
Run into the house, Mother Snow
and Molly and Prettykins, and | will
stay and see that nothing hurts you'll"
said Maize.
The three rabbits huddled in, and a
lop-eared rabbit, with hunted look in
its eyes, leaped into the open space
in front of the little house and turned
its head this way and that, looking
for some way to escape
This way, this way, Soft Pawsr
cried Maize, opening the door of the
rabbit house With one bound, Soft
Paws was at the door, to be pulled in
by the excited Molly, whose cap was
off and whose apron dragged on the
ground.
Maize banged the door on them just
in time, for there was rush of big
red body, disappointed yelp, and
then Maize caught at the great set
ters collar.
ooh, Don," she said, you bad boy;
how did you get here?"
Don, who was Mazie's own dog,
shifted at the door Of the rabbit house
and slapped his tail back and forth
His tongue was hanging out, and he
tugged hard to get away from the lit
tie girls restraining hand, but not
once did she LET go of him until she
had dragged him home and shut him
up. Then she hurried back to the rab-
bit house, calling as she went:
"Come back, little wild rabbits, you
are safe, you are safe"
And they came back, and Mother
Snow took the head of the table, and
Prettykins sat at the foot, while
Maize had the seat of honor at Mother
Shows right, and Molly Cottontail,
the irrepressible Molly, waited on the
table, with her apron flying and her
cap askew.

This naturally made many of the
Russian courtiers bitterly jealous, and
thereafter they devised little ways of
annoying Sir Jerom.
Finally, one day, when there was a
reception in the palace. two Russian
nob1emen demanded precedence of the
Ambassador, pushed in before him
and assembled the staircase ahead of
him.
Thereupon Mad Boze refused to go
Up till the Gar should have ordered
the two men to be sent downstairs
again to follow behind him, as they
should.
To Sir Jeronl's horror, the Gar did
send them down, but not in the way
expected. He had them dragged
down by the feet, with their heads
striking against each step as they went
along, so that both of them were dead
when the guards finally threw them
in front of the British Ambassador.
Only once more did anybody ven
ture to show him an indignity while
he was at the Court in Moscow; and
