Personal PecuIiarities.

1t is said that every man has some
little trick or other which he performs
unconsciously, especially when he is
thinking. The sovereigns of Europe
have all their own peculiar habits.
For example, King Edward has a way
of passing his finger backward and
forward under his chin; the German
emperor twirls his mustache with
energy, while the king of Italy .twirls
his gently and affectionately; the
emperor Of Austria combs out his
whiskers, and the Car frequently
passes his hand over his head. Last
ly. ex-President Loubet has a trick of
struggling his right shoulder, and at
the same time smoothing the front Of
his coat with his right hand.-Tit-

Several of the big ships in the
United States Navy have their own
newspapers. On board the Kentucky

is issued monthly. The battleship
Ohio has The Buckeye. The West
Virginia boasts of The Ditty Box. The
Badger is printed monthly on the
Wisconsin. All of the above papers
are issued by the enlisted men of the

to make life aboard the ship more
agreeable, and to give the friends in
civil life an outline of naval doings
and of the brighter side of naval life.
