simile. The President thanked his
friends in a voice broken with emo.
tion, and tears actually streamed
down his cheeks as he finished his
little speech.
The late French President M
Loubet, was once the recipient of an
interesting present. II consisted of
an immense album filled with thou
sands of press cuttings relating to
his visits to italy and to England,
The album, which is OF enormous
size and richly bound, contains not
only cuttings, but photographs and
illustrations of all kinds. 1t forms,
indeed, a complete chronicle of his
life written by many different peo-
pie, and in more than a dozen diff
ferent languages.
In India the native rajahs consid-
er It the highest possible compli-
ment to be presented with fine specl-
mems of wild beasts, an consequently
both King Edward and the Prince of
Wales have been the recipients of
many. gifts of this description. But
when, one fine day, two splendid IT,

ringham, King Edward was driven to
demonstrate. II have accommoda-

Perhaps the oldest idea of paying
a compliment belongs to tribe OF
Indians on the Alaskan coast. When
a chief wishes to do honor to a dis
tinguished visitor he invites him to a
'potlatch," or feast. Then when all
have eaten their fill the chief goes to
the edge of the cliff and solemnly
casts into the sea as many of his pos
sessions as he thinks he can afford.
This is held to be the highest form
of compliment and much superior to
merely giving presents to the guests.

statement by King in court, during
which he reviewed the story of his life,
his fight from Boston and his travels
in England, France and Ceylon. He
declared that he was innocent Of any
wrong intent in any of his acts and in
closing his address he accused Thomas
