cent light tax for street lighting was
raised, 500 was voted to the library, 500
to the band and 1t was voted TO pay the
members of the fire department % cents
for attendance at the monthly roll call.
After considerable discussion 1t was voted
by ballot, SO to 81, to instruct the trustees
to furnish surplus electrical power to the
first granite cutting concern or individual
who will locate here and open the quarries
near this village, not to exceed % horse
power of current for s. per horse power per
Year for Fl 9e years, and it was voted to give
the trustees power to hire money to place
the plant in condition to install day power
and carry out the provisions of the vote.
1t was voted to raise the price of lights in
this village from six cents per kiloWatt
hour to eight cents. The trustees were
instructed1 to light the outlet of Crystal
Lake at village expense. The meeting was
spicy all through and discussion on many
topics gave all better understanding of
affairs and conditions than they have pre-
viously had. The trustees are already
taking steps to install the power, and
many feel that the installation of power
will mean much to the village by putting
1t on an equal footing with other villages
of this size where day current pays and
gives business concerns a chance to locate
in town and obtain power instead Of
keeping them cut.

GORDON BLEU.
Origin of the French Title as Applied
to Fine Cook.

Origin of the French Title as Applied
to a Fine Cook.
The Order of the st. Esprit was Gre
ated in 1887, was suppressed by the
revolution and was revived by Louis
XVIII. in 1914. To speak rightly, Louis
XVIII. considered that the order had
never ceased to exist. for he had given
two collars during his exile, in 1910,
the one to Francis l., king Of the two
Sicilies, and the other to his brother,
the Prince of SalernO, the father of his
brothers wife, the Duchess d'Aumale.
The ribbon of this order was a light
blue color. 1t was worn around the
neck III the reigns of Henry III. and
Henry ", but was changed by Louis
XIV, when il was worn across the
chest. The Chevaliers of the st. Esprit
were always known under the name of
Les Gordon Bleu, and this was the su-
preme honor during the monarchy of
France. 1t was from this that the title
OF Gordon bIeu" was given to a first
class cook. A gentleman one day de-
clared after a good meal that he who
had cooked the dinner had proved him
self a Gordon bleu" among cOoks-in
other words, the master of his art. The
title became quite the rage and is now
always used to designate a good cook
without the persons who use it know
ing what it means or still less the orr
gin of the title.

Marie Antoinette,s Books.

The unhappy Queen Marie AntOi-
nette possessed an important library Of
Alp volumes. consisting of plays and
rOmances, little books a IA mode, the
works of Pascal. Bossuet. Fenelon,
BOurdaloue. Massillon. Boileau. Cous-
seau. COrneille, MOliere, VOltaire and
many others She loved music passion
ately and had a large collection of
operas in eighty-nine numbers. The
bindings were by BlaizOt and were
uniform in red morocco, with the arms
Of France and Austria stamped upon
them The execution of the work was
poor and the decadence in the art Of
binding evident. The glOries of the
art Of PadelOup and the DerOmeS had
passed away, and the revolution effec-
tuaIly killed whatever knowledge re-
mained Of the ancient skill of the
bookbinders. Half a century later saw
its revival in France and the art has
since 1OUrished both there and on
English soil.-London Spectator.

They Differ In Many Ways From
Those of Our Own Country.
Hot water is not Laid ION" piped) at
foreign hotels, says the Travel Maya
zine. If you hear a gentle tap on the
door in the morning, you may inter
pret it as meaning that a copper ever
of hot water has just been set down
outside for your personal use.
If you order a bath, it will be pre-
pared for you accordingly, and a sweet
voiced maid will give you notice when
it is ready. You are not expected to
operate the water valves at all, and 1t
is doubtful if you would succeed if
you tried.
From a variety of vacant rooms at a
hotel shown you you select the one
you prefer, with a definite agreement
as to price. You are not required to
accept humbly and thankfully, in blind
faith, whatever room the clerk deigns
to assign TO you, as in America. 1t is
expected. however, that you will order
your breakfasts at the hotel, being free
to get your other meals elsewhere il

Electric light switches are not COM
monty turned on by a push button or
a fiat key, as in our buildings, but by
small brass lever. Many Of the best
hotels have a reading light in the
headboard of each bedstead.
