Lafayette's Medal.

Shortly after Lafayette's return to
France from his second sojourn In
America, he was at Versailles, where
the King was about to review a division
of troops. Lafayette was asked to join
in the review.
He was dressed in the American uni
form. and was standing by the side of
the Prince de Condo, when the King
in his tour of conversation with the Off
GERS, came to him and, after speaking
on several topics, asked him some ques-
tons about his uniform and the mill
tary costume of the United States. The
Kings attention was attracted by a
little medal attached to the generals
coat and he asked what it was.
Lafayette replied that It was a SYM
Dol which it was the custom of foreign
officers in American service to wear,
and that it bore device.
"And what is the device upon yours?"
asked the King.
MY device" said the young general,
pointing to his medal, .is a liberty pole
standing on broken crown and scep-
ter
The King smiled, and with some
pleasantly upon the republican propen-
stiles of a French marquis in American
uniform, turned the conversation into
other channels. Condo looked grave,
but was Silent.

Do Spiders Like Musicf

1t has often been said that spiders
are fond of music, but French inves-
tigator, NJ. Lecaillou, now asserts that
this is not true. He says that their
musical sense must be attributed mere
" to greed or to hunger. When fly
is caught in spiders web it buzzes,
and the spider Immediately makes for
the place from which the buZzing
comes. NJ. Lecaillou, by experimenting
with violin, some flies, piano, vio-
loncello and a cornet, found that only
those musical sounds which resemble
the buzzing of the flies attracted the
spiders. The cornet, for instance, in
variably frightened it, and so did the
n!ano.

Birds Sometimes MisIed by an I'm

We are apt to think that birds build
only in spring or in summer, because
that is their natural season and be-
cause their ancestors did SO. But have
you never thought that perhaps the
heat or the mildness of the weather
may have a direct influence and may
actually invite them to build? Here is

waxwings gather nesting material

No external remedy ever yet devised
has so fully and unquestionably met
these three prime conditions as sue
ceSsfully as Allcock's PlaSters. They
are safe because they contain no dele
FERROUS drugs and are manufactured
upon scientific principles of medicine.
They are sure because nothing goes
into them except ingredients which are
exactly adapted to the purposes for
which a plaster is required. They are
speedy in their action because their
medicinal qualities go right to their
work of relieving pain and restoring
the natural and healthy performance

Postpaid envelopes originated in the
reign of Louis XIV. of France. De
Valfver in 1868 established with royal
appreciation private penny post by
placing boxes at the corners of the

wrapped up in these envelopes, which
were sold to patrons at offices for that
purpose. This is also the first instance

Man and His Wavs.

Ask any hostess who is sensible
minded, and who wishes to entertain
in rational manner, what she thinks
of the manners of the men who come
to her dinner-dance parties, says a
writer in the London World. She will
tell you that they are absolutely cas-
ual, that they will often throw her
over at the last moment If they get
what they fancy is a better offer, that
they think nothing of keeping a whole
dinner party waiting for half an hour
after the appointed time, that their
demeanor and bearing seem to imply
that they have done a great favor in
coming at all, and that in many cases,
when they get to the dance, they ig-
more the daughters of the house at
which they have dined altogether, I'M
less they happen to be in their particu-
lar set. These, one may say, are the
lighter accusations that are daily
being brought against the spoiled
young men of fashion. But there are
others, and more unpleasant. Ask
some really nice girl-and there are
some in London, even in these days
of bad influences the conversa-
ton of her dance partners is like. She
will divide them into three classes
the idiotic, the really good fellows, and
those whom you must pretend not
to hear or not to understand when
they talk to you. 1t is most re-
grettable reflection that this third
class has decidedly increased in the
last few years.
