Faithful to His Trust.

I was waiting near the elevator in
the factory building for my friend to
come down when I noticed a small boy
sitting in one corner Of the hall hold
ing a large. thick sandwich. He eyed
the sandwich lovingly for a long time,
then he carefully lifted of the top
slice Of bread, took out a piece Of dill
pickle, ate 1t and replaced all as be-
fore. In a few seconds he again re-
moved the top piece, extracted a piece
Of pickle and a piece Of meat and re-
placed the top. Again and again the
performance was repeated until all the
pickle and almost all the meat were
gone, the sandwich. however, appear
ing intact as in the beginning.
"Why. don't you eat up your sand
witch and not pick at 1t in that way?'
I asked the boy with some curiosity.
"Why." he answered, looking up
with great innocence. ut amt my

Verdi and Bismarck on Titles

Verdi and Bismarck on Titles.
The composer Verdi was offered q
title of nobility by King Victor En-
manuel. 1t was intended that he should
be created Marquis or Comte de Bus
seto, after the estate upon which he
lived. The composer refused the offer
energetically. He considered that Verdi
vas somebody and that the Marquis
de Busseto would be nobody.
Even Bismarck was unable to parry
q blow Of this character. When the
young emperor broke with him he
conferred upon him the title Of Duke
Of Luxembourg. Bismarck received the
parchment with this exclamation:
"A pretty name! It will be handy
for travelling incognito."
Some days after a parcel arrived at
Varzin bearing the address NINE. 10
Duchesse de Luxembourg"
Bismarck, to whom it was delivered,
being then at table, arose and, offering
the letter to his wife, remarked iron
ically:
duchess, enchanted to make your
acquaintance"

When George III. ascended the
throne of England his wealthy sub
Dects were beginning to leave of wigs

himself n Of the offenders, the per-
IKE makers, who feared q serious loss
Of trade, prepared a petition In which
they prayed his majesty to be gra-
ciously pleased to shave his head" for
khe good Of distressed workmen and
wear a wig. as his father had done be-
tore him.
When the petitioners walked to the
royal palace, however, 1t was noticed
that they wore no wigs themselves.
AS this seemed unfair to the onlook-
ers they seized several Of the leading
processionists and cut their hair with
any implement that came most readily
to hand.
From this incident arose a host Of
curious caricatures. The wooden leg
makers were said to have especial
claims on the kings consideration, in
asmuch as the conclusion Of peace had
deprived them of a profitable source
of employment; hence the suggestion
that his majesty should not only wear
a wooden leg himself, but enjoin the
people to follow his laudable example.

game, the pin-money girl doesn't play

life and receive her own reward
With no reference TO her sex or cir
cumstance, by all means give every
woman a chance who would become an
honest worker. The young woman OF
true ambitions Is never a pip-money
girl. She Is needed and wanted.
But the other, the pin-money girl
whose presence In business Is often a
nuisance, and TO those who work fol-
their living always an injustice. should
be left to such home employment as
her mother can devise.

GIVES A LINCOLN PARTY.

Mrs. VIM. Mont Gibson was hostess
this afternoon at very pretty Lin
coin celebration card party at her
home on East Rood avenue. The
decorations were handsome and a
very distinct change from anything
which have been planned for some
time. Extremely patriotic and artis-
tic they We're, decorations which were
entirely appropriate to the occasion
and everywhere throughout the house
the national emblem and colors were
in abundant evidence.
When entering the house the first
thing that the gaze of the guest fell
upon. was large silk American flag,
draped around framed etching of
he dead president, who was born
100 years ago today. Turning to the
right the receiving room was bright
with red. white and blue streamers.
alternating stars and stripes. From
the center of the room on the chand-
eliers to the corners of the room
were draped these pretty emblems.
And scattered in order to carry out
an appointed design were numerous
large and small American flags. Red
carnations and, corresponding color,
tissue ornaments completed the beau
tiful decorations which added much
to the success of the afternoon. which
was indeed great.
Tables for cards were placed IN
rows through the three roons which
were employed for the occasion and
1t was in this same manner nat the
refreshments were served. Here TOO
the patriotic colors prevailed. The
nut boxes were ~, the share of the
military hat, tied in pale blue baby
ribbon. The ice cream was moIueu
in red hearts with a white center.
The place marks were Lincoln CEN
tenary souvenirs and the tally cards
bore in one corner Lincoln's head
and in the other the famous log
cabin. the old home of Lincoln.
