When Louis XVI. laid his head be-
meath the guillotlne, his confessor,
Abbe Edgeworth, dismissed him from
the world, SO history tells, with "Son
of Saint Louis, ascend to heaven! yet
In reality he said nothing Of the sort.
The brave defiance, ''The guard dies,
but never surrenders," attributed to
Cambronne when, at Waterloo, the i'm
perial guard were ordered to throw
down their arms, has been shown to
have been the fanclful creation of some
historians mind; and the saying,
providence favors the stronger side" "
or, as it has been corrupted, God is on
the side with the heaviest artillery"
which has been attributed to Napoleon,
really originated with writers Of an
tiquity. Cicero alludes to it as an "Old
proverb."
1t would take volumes to contain all
the blunders, small large and indif-
ferent, that historians have made, and
the lamentable part of it is that the
old blunders are constantly being made
over again.

Allusion is often made, especially in
fashion journals, to Osprey feathers.
Few words have been more loosely
banded about than this bird name.
The Roman author Pliny's ''0ssifraga'
(bone breaker) has been identified
with the lammergeyer, vulture that
is reputed to break up bones too big
for it to devour whole by dropping
them from height upon rocks. But
both "ossifrage' and Osprey" a newer
form, came to be applied to quite an
other bird, the fish hawk, which is
now the true Osprey" Yet the 'os-
prey" feathers-more properly egret
feathers, or aigrettes-do not come
from this bird, but from the egret, or
lesser white heron.

The Dieting Nuinance.

The dieting fad prevails to such an
extent In England that numbers of
well known hostesses have put their
heads together and drawn up declar-
alton of independence, This sent out
with all invitations to country houses
reads thus: II am sorry to appear in
hospitable, but my housekeeper and
cook cannot arrange to cater for any
guest who Is obliged to diet" The
food faddist, it seems has become no
end of nuisance in other peoples
houses, and though the hostesses might
be willing to endure it, the servants
have risen in revolt. Complications
arise when it Is necessary to feed at
the same table the carnivorous, the
gramnivorous and the frugivorous.-

/ Lady Peggy stood by her mirror
thinking about cabinet minister.
Then she brushed back the strands
of curly brown hair that never long
kept the decorous temple waves into
which her maid trained them, and add
ed, in her thoughts:
"Other girls marry boys, or ordinary
menfolk, and are happy enough, sup
pose; I've forfeited all that sort of
prospect by caring for Lord Montlei-
thon; but I'm glad, and proud-not
sorry"
The last two mental words were ac-
companied by stamp Of small right
foot; then Lady Peggy tripped down
stairs into the hall, triumph of sweet
ness, complexion and pink chiffon.
She patted her mothers knee as they
sat in the hired -brougham.
Aren't | nice, mummie? It's mar
velous how l found such a new un-
crushed bargain as this frock. Messrs.
Oakley & Lemercier have never before

She told me she had dropped down
suddenly, after finishing the last OF
half a dozen chiffon robes. A message
had come for them, but she could not
go for payment"
Peggy gasped
The wage would represent not a
farthing a score of tucks, yet some OF
this was to be deducted since, her baby
having died. she had let tears fall upon
frill of chiffon"
Peggy caught his arm with both her
hands.
"Who were her employers"
"Messrs Oakley & Lemercier.'
She gave a cry, and the minister un-
derstood
Breaking away from him she leaned
against a pillar, beneath a bust of JUS
tice. and there she sobbed, in school
girl-like abandon.
The minister did not forget the wear
er of the pink chiffon; her sweet, tear
full face came between his thoughts
and all statistics. Once, indeed, he con-
temptuously thrust away the profound
figure proofs that were to convince his
colleagues of the necessity for legis-
lation.

"Oh, my lord, she be an angel of
goodness"
The girl and man came out of the
house together into the squalid alley.
Lord Montleithon had a cab waiting,
and helped her in without word. In
deed, the scene had changed to Bond
street before he asked:
I'VE spoke of tears and misery but
YOU have created smiles within that
home-is there the remotest hope that
you will smile for me, in mine, Peggy?"
