Making Shakespeare Ancient

A well-known dramatic critic visit
ing Stratford on Shakespeares birth
day and hearing the clangor' of the
bells, which, from their tower in the
old church where the poet lies buried.
awoke the little town to it's devo-
lions. approached a wintry-headed
street sweeper in front OF Irvings inn
and said: Who is the fellow they're
making this fuss about? see you
have Shakespeare hotels, Shakespeare
gingerbread, and only the other day l
saw a man driving to town some pigs
called 'Shakespeare's best'-who is
he-the fellow who lived in that tum-
ble-down shanty yonder?" The "old-
est inhabitant" megaphoned his ear
and wheeling, replied: Il think he
writ" "Oh, he writ. did he? What
did he write-books, confessions of a

HERE'S REAL SAFETY ENVELOPE
Ingenious Device for Double Locking a
Letter.

A new envelope made in Paris is
proof against the thief or the msddler
who opens a letter to extract or to
read its contents and then reseals II
SO cleverly as to hide any sign of 1t
having been tempered with.
The new envelope is really two en-
Velopes. Each is OF thin paper, one a
pronounced blue, the other lighter In
color and different in texture. Each
has gummed flap.
The letter is first placed in the blue
envelope, which is slightly smaller
than the other. Instead Of sealing this
1t is placed in the outer envelope and
the inner flap brought outside and
gummed down on to the larger en-
velope.
The outer flap is still unsealed. Il
is much larger than the inner flap and
reaches down to good sized star.
shaped opening which shows through
to the inner envelope. so that when
the outer flap is sealed It sticks not
only to the outer envelope but also
through this opening to the inner one.
The letter is thus practically locked
and double locked.

LED TO NAPoLEoNs DOWNFALL.
Wounded Vanity at the Bottom Of DIE
astrous Russian Campaign.

By the peace of Tilsit, that remark

and the car in a tent on a raft moored
in midstream of the River Memel, Bo-
naparte became master of Europe.
Prussia, the Rhine provinces, Italy,
Spain, were all his, and it has always
been historic puzzle why he should
have gone out of his way to break an
agreement which must have satisfied
even his ambitions. The best authori-

No sooner had he compelled the
car to hand him over Europe than he
conceived the idea Of marrying Alex.

were sent to st. Petersburg on this
delicate mission. The car received

BEGINNINGS of Graft

Frequently one has to deal with
chiefs. in fact in every village the
traveller will probably be welcomed by
the chief. An interchange of greetings
through an Interpreter establishes a
good understanding.
An interchange OF presents is
usual on these occasions and is an
almost universal custom. Etiquette re-
quires the chief to give a present in
return. AS rule chief can only offer
bunch OF bananas. some pawpaws or
possibly a goat or two, some of which
may possibly be welcome.
On a special occasion the chief may
offer the traveller wife. a gift which

Fear never but you shall be con-

tons, so they each be honest and
natural in their hour. For of ono
Will, the actions will be harmonious
however unlike they seem. These
varieties are lost sight of when
seen at little distance, at little
height OF thought One tendency
unltes them all. The voyage Of
the best ship is a zigzag line Of
hundred tacks. This is only mi
croscopic criticism. See the line
from a sufficient distance, and 1t
