CAREFUL Of Her Nose.

Many interesting stories OF courtissa
and favoritos at the old French court
are found In the memoirs OF the Mar
Quise do Crequy. She says that on cor.
tain solemn occasions kings Of France
wore ermine Innings to their robes. but
ermine became scarce, and she writes:
'.The amounting OF Louis XIV. was re.
tarded some years for want Of this fur
for the court nantes, and at the coro.
nation of Louis XIV. they actually
used catskin." Superbly elegant was
the Duchesse de Ia Ferte. who generally
was carried around under a canopy.
The marquise goes into ecstasies con-
corning this particular duchesse. whose
eyes had the most disdainful express.
sion l ever saw. though they had a
slight cast In them" But her supreme
elegance can be appreciated when 1t is
known "she never blew her nose for
fear OF spelling her Greek contour. b. t
dabbed it at intervals with a small
square Of cambria"

A very unfiattering description OF
Benjamin Franklin's wife Is taken
from the diary Of Daniel Fisher, who
was Franklin's secretary for n short
time. "She sat on the floor at a neigh

binary freedom and great humility,
lamented heavily the misfOrtunes OF
those who are u%nhappily infected with
a too tender or benevolent disposition,
said she believed all the world claimed
the privilege Of troubling her pappy-
so she usually calls Mr.. Franklin-wi'h
their calamities and distress, giving MS
a general history of many such wretch
es and their impertinent applications"
He mentions 1.-THE turbulence and jeal-
ousy and pride Of her disposition" and
the violence of her %invectives. Pointing
to Franklin's son n day, she exclaim-
ed, There goes the greatest villain up
