PURVEYORS TO ROYALTY.
Their Signs Constitute One of the
Sights of London.

The American in London, ON his first
visit to that marvellous city, is struck
by the number of signs over shops
with the royal arms painted thereon
and announcing that the tradesman
is purveyor to their majesties. Yet,
when the matter is sifted, the number
is not so large.
Officially, according to the London
News, there are about 200 tradesmen
i'll London who hold the royal warrant
and are entitled 10 use the royal arms

words, "By royal appointment" The
royal warrant has to be received,
signed and sealed in due form; other
wise, il a tradesman styles himself n
puryeyor to member of the royal
family without this fctmal permission.

The warrants are exhibited in the
shop windows, headed by the royal

SMOKING A PIPE.

1.-THE question l always ask them Is,
do you smoke pipe ffluchr or

of them smoke a pipe great deal and
others not at all.
why do ask about the pipe? Well,
not that have the least interest in

he does not smoke pipe his square
jaw, back near where 1t hinges on to
the upper one, Is natural. II he is a
pipe smoker the looks are deceiving,
and have to judge his caliber some
other way.
"Pipe smokers always have strong
muscles back on the face about the
place man stops when he makes the
first stroke downward in shaving.
These are the muscles that hold the
jaws together. They often give a

Most Awkward,

An old. steady goirg farmer was ac-

upon rather bad tempered horse.
One day his man Bob brought the
animal which was especially vicious
that morning, to the door. the horse
trying to bite and kick and giving n
good deal of trouble.
The farmer mounted the horse with
some difficulty and began to walk II

entertained Ill feeling against the ami

him with all his force; but, alas, his
aim was erratic, and the missile struck

Rismarck and 3.

Bismarck had an intense aversion to
10, but veneration for the num-
Der 3. His reasons for his pre-
objection were that he served three
masters; he was responsible for and
fought in three great wars; he signed
three treaties of peace; he arranged
the meeting of three cmperors; he es-
tablislled the triple alliance; In the
Franco Prussian war three horses were
killed under him; he had three names
bismarck, Schoenhauscn and Lauen-
burg; he acquired three titles count
prince, duke; the ancient arms Of his
family are leaf Of clover and three
oak leaves. His family motto In
trinitate robur" cStrength In trim

give leaning in this particular direc-
ton. So closely were his feelings as

Life, II has become an industry of i'm
portance in Europe, but 1t has flour

Egyptians certainly used both cotton

such stuffs have been preserved among
the other relies of their ancient civil
lization, and there Is much reason to
believe that the elaborate draperies of
the Assyrians were cotton or muslins

In China, too. and India the same
kinds of material have been the com

TREES IN HOLLAND.
All Streets and Canals Bordered With
Elms or lindens.

G'NnS W GH'dSnS.
The average Dutch town is an at
tractive place in the summer months.
since practically every street and canal
is bordered with shade trees, which
shut out the glare of the sun and offer
cool and inviting avenues for the ex-
ploration of the tourist. The banks OF
these canals are generally terraeed in
two levels--the lower one for ware
houses and the upper for shops or
dwellings, but each elevation Is plant
ed with trees
At best n city is an exceedingly poor
location for tree culture. Narrow
streets, with tall buildings, exclude the
life giving sunlight: asphalt or closely
paved walks prevent the necessary
moisture from sinking into the ground
and nourishing thirsty roots. and leak
age from the gas mains is deadly
poison to all vegetation. For this rea-
son care should be exercised In the
selection of the variety of trees for
street planting in order to get the best
results In Holland time has demon
strated that the elm and linden should
be placed in the first rank. for there
are many examples of these species In
Dutch towns which have withstood
the ravages of more than two cen
turtles. The elm appears to be the
harder of these two trees and will
live under most adverse conditions.
The Dutch municipalities expend
large sums each year for the preserva-
ton Of their shade trees, but the re-
suits amply justify the cost for main.
