HE Is THE rALLEsr SOLDIER.
Lieutenant In kaiser's Bodyguard ID
Over Seven Feet Tall.

Lieutenant In kaiser's Bodyguard 10
Over Seven Feet Tall.
Undoubtedly the tallest soldier In
the world is Josef Handel. who has
recently been made a lieutenant In the
kaiser's famous bodyguard. During
the past year and before he became q
soldier he was exhibited under the
simple name OF der lange JOSEF In
the Berlin Panopjtikon and other
places of interest In the large cities
Of Germany as the tallest youth on
earth. a distinction to which he is
easily entitled. says the Cincinnati
Enquirer.
Handel Is not % years old. yet he
stands feet 8 inches In his stockings.
Though he was earning big salary
he did not hesitate a moment when
the kaiser called him to his body
guard in Potsdam. He would never
have been given the honor II the kali
ser's physicians had not pronounced
him perfectly proportioned physically
and of sound health. A remarkable
fact is that Handel's parents. who
live In Leipzig, are people Of ordinary
size. as are also his brothers and sis
ters, OF whom there are seven. Handel
makes a picturesque figure In his
guard uniform and the high helmet
makes him look a veritable Goliath.
Frederick the Great would have given
his best pipe to have added such q
giant to his guard OF tall soldiers.

TAR AND FEATHERS LONG AGO.
Ordered by Richard Occur de Lion 40
Punishment for Theft.

We learn from the annals Of the his
torian Hoveden, who was court chap
lain to Henry III. that the old custom
OF tarring and ieathering Is one that
dates back to the ti>>e of Richard the
Lion Hearted.
He tells us that this renowned king
on setting out for the third crusade.
made this enactment among others.
for his fleet:
A robber who shall be convicted OF
theft shall have his head cropped af-
ter the fashion of champion, and
boiling pitch shall be poured there.
on, and the feathers of cushion shall
be shaken out on him. so that he may
be known, and at the first land lat
which the ship shall touch he shall
be set on shore.

NAY PIPE SHOULD BE LIGHTED.
Subject OF Vastly More Importance
Than Appears.

eH appears
There has been a little newspaper
discussion recently on the subject OF
How to Light Pipe" This may seem
to the feminine mind, a trivial matter.
and quite beneath the notice of any
dignified journal.
HOW wrong! For a pipe ill-lit Is a
pipe ilismoked. and a pipe ill-smoked
Is man made testy, and a man made
testy Ii a man looking out for trouble.
and man looking out for trouble is a
man nnding trouble, and a man find-
Ing trouble Is a woman in tears, and a
woman In tears is the last word In hui
man dreariness. Never let us be
ashamed to inquire, then. how a pipe
may be lit with the utmost satisfac-
tion to the smoker.
One paper. see, recommends spills.
That Is good. but the spills. of course.
must be wooden ones.
Another paper retorts that spills are
OF no sort of use to the man In the
train. This Is the kind of frightfully
true thing that causes a hush in the
noisiest assembly. What. then, should
the man In the train do?
| will tell him. He should carry a
box OF wooden matches. and he should
use exactly two matches to light his
pipe. The first one will dry the to-
bacco on the surface, and the second
one will produce the vivid, even glow
beloved OF smokers.
The man. by the wav. who lights his
pipe with wax matcn is bad man
right from the start. Never trust him.
