The Slippery Pronoun,

Many are the circumlocutions which
have been devised by civilized races in
order to avoid the bluntness of direct
address. In fact, it may be said that
at the moment when nation stand
ardizes its language 1t begins to have
trouble with its pronouns.
''Thou" has of course become obso-
lete except in prayer, although it flour
ishes colloquially in the north of Eng
land. The second person plural is
substituted. In parts of the south
you ALL is heard. Il further step to-
ward refined elusiveness.
In France and Germany thou" has
been retained in familiar or semicon-
temptuous speech In Spain and Italy,
on the other hand, the third person is
substituted habitually in place of it.

Chess and War.

The origin of chess is shrouded in
mystery, There is little doubt, how
ever that its birthplace was in India
and that it is an offspring Of a game
called chaturanga, which is mentioned
in oriental literature as in use fully
200 years before the Christian era.
From India chess spread into Persia
and thence into Arabia, and ultimately
the Arabs took it into Spain ana the
rest Of western Europe The game
was in all probability invented for the
purpose of Illustrating the art OF war.
The Arab legend upon this point is that
it was devised for the instruction OF Il
young dcspot by his father, learned
Brahman, to teach him that king
Notwithstanding his power was depend
ent for safety upon his subjects. The
Greek historians credit the invention
of the game to Palamedes, who, they
claim, devised it to beguile the tedium
of the siege Of Troy during the Trojan
war.

MAKING A WILL.
If You Draw Up Your Own, Stick to
the Most Simple Terms.

"If the people" said lawyer, "who
for whatever reason prefer to draw
wills without resorting to legal advice
would keep just one thing in mind Il
lot of trouble would be saved. 1t is
nothing save insistence on simplicity.
Simplicity is the main thing to make
a will effective, and apparently it is
the one thing that the will makers for
get about High sounding words and
half remembered law phrases come to
their minds, and into the documents
these verbal eXtravaganceS go. There
appears to be Il popular impression
that, for example, to say I give and
bequeath is Il stronger way of saying
L give Again, take the matter of
directions. Here desire to be explicit
frequently results in contradictions,
and the longer Il sentence in Il will is
the more likelihood there is of its be-
ing open to mininterpretation
mo will should be drawn without
at least a couple of drafts having been
made of it, each one being gone over
carefully with the idea of simplifying
and clarifying it. Give the time to it
that the Importance of the action de-
mands. Know what you want to do
and study out the best way of ex-
pressing yourself. Don't put off max
ing will. I'm superstitious enough
to consider that tempting fate. And
when Il will is drawn remember that
it has no legal binding unless the sig
nature is witnessed by two persons,
who must themselves witness the doc
ument in the presence OF the testator
ana each other. New York Press

A MUFF BED.
Surprise of a Man Who Thought II
Had to Do With Sleep.


Had to Do With Sleep.
A man who saw on n sign the words
"muff beds" and imagined that muff
bed must be something to sleep in, a
brother or cousin or other more or
less distant relative of the sleeping
bag, such as explorers carry with
them, found upon inquiry that his i'm
agination had carried him very far
from the truth; that the muff bed is
in fact not Il bed at all, but is the
trade name for the inner part of Il
muff, the body of the muffin short,
the part you put your hands in.
The muff bed consists of double
walled bag made in cylindrical or 9th
er shape. according to the style of
muff, and then stuffed with down, the
quality and quantity of the down de-
pending on the character of the muff.
The making of muff beds is a bust
ness by itself. Some of them are sold
to the furliers In the simplest form,
just the bed or bag stuffed with down,
the furrier putting in the silk or satin
lining when he puts on the fur 9th
ers are made with the silk or satin in
ner lining attached, to be finished UP
when the fur is put on. There is at
least one concern in New York that
makes a speciality of muff beds and
turns out many thousands of them an
nually-NoW York sun.

A MODERN MACAULAY.
Wonderful Memory of an Old Time
Missouri Lawyer.

Missouri Lawyer.
One Of the most picturesque of the
early lawyers of Missouri was Billy
Campbell, who came from Virginia il
1899 ana opened an Office in st
Charles. He was a man of great abil
ity, classic scholar, an orator and Il
political writer of unusual power. But
he was indoent careless about collect
ing and spending money and so lazy
that physical cXertion of any kind was
positively painful to him. He had Il
most remarkable memory, as proved
by the following incident: Campbell
who was a Wing, represented his dis
trlct in the state senate several years.
On one occasion he was lying on Il
bench in the senate chamber, apparent.
ly sleeping, when the Democratic mem.
berS came in to hold Il caucus. They at.
tempted to arouse him, but he ap.
peared so soundly asleep that they de.
cided to let him alone The next day Il
complete report of the proceedings OF
the caucus, including Il verbatim copy
of the resolutions adopted, was pub.
lished in the st. Louis Republican 4
row followed. and the secretary was
charged with having been bribed to re.
port the proceedings of the caucus.
Aftcr the excitement died down some.
what Campbell admitted that he had
been awake all the time and that he
had done the reportorial work entirely
from memory. Kansas City Star.

The Way Queen Saved an Old Serv-

ant From Dismissal.
y charming story is told of the for
mer queen regent of Holland the moth
er Of Queen Wilhelmina. The old king
had bought a fine service of Sevres
porcelain for the use of the royal fami-
ly, and he gave orders that any serv-
ant who should break any piece of it
should be punished by being instantly
dismissed. One day nan who had
been many years in the royal house
hold confessed to the young queen that
he had broken one of these Seyres
cups. Queen Emma spoke comfort
ingly to him and suggested that he
should mend the cup That, said the
man, would be useless, for the king
would surely notice the cracks Nev-
erthelesS the queen told him to mend
the cup as neatly as possible and to be
sure to give il to her that afternoon ut
tea time, when the king would be pres
ent. Tea time came, and the queen,
after drinking from the mended cup.

floor. 1t was smashed to atoms.
Think of me as one of the most
awkward of your majcsty's servants"
she said humbly. Il have broken one
of your precious Sevres cups. You must
dismiss me at once. | don't deserve to
be retained in your service" The arbi-
trary old king was highly amused at
her demure manner and considered the
matter 4 good joke. He never knew
the true story of the broken cup.
