them, and we find In our room ct tn
hotel box OF insect powder, which
charged in with the candles.
The King, who Is boy about three
years older than ! am. is full OF fieas
too, and he jumps around from on,
place to another, like he was shaking
himself to get rid OF them. He get,
up in the morning and goes out horse
back riding, and jumps fences. and rides
up and down the marble steps of thu
public buildings, as though he wanted
TO make the fieas feel In danger. so the,
would leave him. Seems to me, IL ever,
man kept as many dogs as they do IL
Constantinople, the feas would take &c
the dogs, but they say here that fieas
will leave a dog and get on human
being, because they like the smell OF
garlic, as every Spaniard eats garlic
| dozen times day. They are trying
to teach dogs 10 eat garlic but no self
respecting dog will touch It.
We have had TO fill up on garlic In
order to be able to talk with the peo-
pie. cause dad got seasick the first day
here, everybody smelled so oniony.
Dad wanted druggist to put up onions
In capsules, like they do quinine, SO
he could take onions and not taste them,
but he couldn't make the man under
stand. There ought to be a law against
any person eating onions, unless he is
under a death sentence. But you can
stand a man with the onion habit, after
you get used to 1t. II is woman, a
beautiful woman, one you would like
to have take you on her lap and pet
you. that ought to know better than
to eat onions. Gee, but when you see
woman that is so beautiful 1t
makes her ache to carry her beauty
around. and you get near to her and
expect TO breathe the odor of roses and
violets, it makes you tired when she
opens her mouth to say soft words
Of love, and there comes to your nos
trils the odor of onions. Do you know,
nothing would make me commit sui
eide so quick as to have wife who
habitual!y loaded herself with onions?
Dad was buying some candy for me
at confectionery shop, of beautiful
Spanish woman, and when he asked
how much it was. she bent over towards
him in the most tewitching manner,
and breathed in his face. and said
"Quatro-realis, seignor," which meant
-four bits. mister" and he handed
her a fve-dollar gold piece ard went
out doors for breath of fresh air, and
let her keep the change. He said she
was welcome to the $3.50, II she would
not breathe towards him again.
Well, we have taken in the town,
looked at the cathedrals, attended the
sessions Of the Cortez, and the gambling
houses. saw the people sell the staple
products of the country. which are
prunes. tomatoes and wine. The peo-
pie do not care what happens as long
as they have quart of wine. In some
countries the question of existence Is
bread, tut In Spain 1t is wine. No
one is so poor they cannot have poor
wine, and with wine nothing else Is
necessary; but piece OF cheese and
bread helps the wine some, though
either could be dispensed with. In
some countries wine. women and
song" are al! that Is necessary to live.
Here 1t Is wine. cheese and an onion
We went to see the king. because he
is such young boy. and dad thought
it would encourage the ruler to see an
American statesman. and to mingle
with an American boy. who could give
him cards ard spades, and little casino,
and beat him at any game. made dad
put on lot OF badges we had col
lected in our town when there were
held there, and when they
were all pinned on dads breast he
looked like al ADMIRAL. There was a
badge OF Moi.-a Woodmen, one OF the
Hardware Dealers association, one of
the Wholesale Druggists. one CT the
Association Of Railway
Trainmen. one o. the Farmers Alliance,
one of the Butter and Cheeseman's con-
vertion, one OF the State Undertakers'
Guild ard half dozen Others in brass,
bronze AID tin. on various colored rib
ions. ~
Say. do you know. when they ushered
Us into the throne room at the palace,
and the little king. who looked like
student in the high school. with dys-
persia from over study and cake be-
tween meals. saw dad, he thought he
was the most distinguished American
ne had ever seen. and he invited dad
up beside him on the th-one, and dad
in when the 10y king gets married, and
