SOME NEW FRENCH KNIGHTS,
Queen OF Holland Has Agreed to Rec
ognize Vatican Titles.

Among the lucrative sources of rev
enue of the pope before the separa
ton of church and state in France was
the toll Or tax on titles of nobility
and decorations. Since the rupture
the French government no longer rec.
ognizes the ennobling titles and dec.
orations of the holy father. To have
the right to wear the Vatican ribbon,
or to be called count, it was necessary
to obtain a confirmation of title. This
gave much perplexity to the candi-
dates.
The question has just been settled.
Queen Wilhelmina has consented to
validate such titles and distinctions.
The result has been an amusing pill
grimage to The Hague-and also in
an increase in the price of these pom
tifical favors.
In the last few weeks the French
knights of the Golden Spur, of the
Holy Sepulcher, of Christ, of Gregory

Mr., Brown, a farmer living in
Boone county, Mo-, decided to buy a
spring wagon. The next time he was
In Gown he went to the local dealer
TO see what he had in stock. One
wagon that suited him was offered to
him at SIS. He thought he would
take it, but before ordering he looked
over a mail order vehicle catalogue.
Here he saw described a wagon which,
as far as description went, was the
same as the one he saw in the deal
er'a store room. In fact, the descrip-
flo was written in such a conyinc-
tng manner and all of the good points

out so thoroughly that it appeared to

price was only $67.45. Mr.. Brown
thought of the saving of $7.55 which
represented several days of hard work.
The more he thought about it the
more he wanted to save that amount
and in the end the Chicago mail Or
der concern got his check.
When the wagon finally arrived,
with a freight bill of $3.50, he rode to
town with his son and spent half a
day putting it together. He had to
buy a screw driver and some oil and
sand paper and a few bolts to replace
some that had been lost in shipment.

All of these cost him rs cents. He
was not experienced at putting spring
wagons together and he didn't do
very good job of it, for one of the
seats refused to sit in the right place
and he had to get a local blacksmith
to help him fix it. This cost him
another half dollar and delayed him
= o much that he and the boy had tc
20 to the hotel for their dinners; an
additional expense of 70 cents. SC
before he got his team hitched to the
wagon it cost him $3.50, allowing him
a saving of $1.10, which was very
stingy pay for the time he had lost,
OF the amount he spent for the wagon,
only $1.95 remained in Boone county.
The railroads and the mail order
house got the rest of it.
In the meantime his neighbor, Mr..
tones, bought the SIS wagon from the
local dealer, who made a profit of
SIG on the sale. AS the vehicle was
already assembled and there were no
extra parts or tools to buy, the amount
paid for the wagon represented all of
the cost to Mr.. Jones. The dealer
spent the SIG profit for a new sign on
his building; the sign painter hired a
carpenter to repair the roof on his
house; the carpenter paid his bill at
The butchers and the butcher bought
Y hog from Mr.. Jones. And so the
tf6 kept going in the county until a
farmer with the mail order habit got
hold OF 1t. He sent it to Chicago and
it. never came back.
But this wasn't the last of the two
purchases. A few weeks after the
Two wagons were bought, Mr.. Browns
boy and Mr.. Jones' boy, driving the
new vehicles, met on the country road.
They drove too close to each other
and a smash-up resulted. The weak
est part of each wagon gave way; an
axle on the mail order product was
broken and a d%oubletree on the other
was smashed. Both breaks were plain
w because of defective construction.
Mr. Jones took his broken doubletree
TO town the next day and the dealer
gave him a new one. Mr.. Brown at
tempted to explain to the Chicago firm
chat the axle would not have broken
" dt had not been defective and
coupled this explanation with a re-
uuest for a new part, but after several
weeks of correspondence with the
piece as far away as at the begin
