One of the clerks stepped up excitedly,
his eyes beaming with the hope of a

Say, boss he whispered, give me

has on. She thinks it will be fun to
have two rings alike.
THE proprietor did not bring forth

WHERE REeeARs ARE TAGGED

1t it said that in every town in Spain
tags are worn by those who wish to
follow the trade of begging, and that
unless a beggar is so marked he is
subject to a penalty. This regulation
dates from the year 1893, and the tag
consists of a round piece with the
arms of the towns where the beggar
appears, and is worn upon band or
cord about the neck. The beggars u.s.
ually wear long blue gown of worst
ed which is confined at the waist by
a belt.

Society Sensation.

At a reception given in Washington
lately by cabinet hostesses a distinc-
ton was rigidly made between official
and personal friends. Many of those
who called in response to the an.
nouncement that the cabinet women
would be at home we're unaware that
such a line was to be drawn, and consid-
cradle embarrassment was caused. 1t
some cases the attendants at the door
took it upon themselves to act as cen
scrs, refused to take the cards Of
strangers, and admitted only those
whom they knew. The episode has
caused no little sensation in society
at the capital.
