ROYALTY HUMBLED ITSELF
FOR HEALTH OF SUBJECTS

We are accustomed to think OF the evil
rather than the good when we think at
all Of these long dead kings. How many
OF us ever picture TO ourselves a king
bowed in the dust. creeping by slow pro-
gress to the foot Of the cross on Good
Friday in deepest humility. not that he
felt the burden of his own SINS, but be-
cause he believed that through his humil-
iation and his service he could purchase
health for the sufferers Of his kingdom
Nevertheless. year after year, through
many reigns, the kings and queens OF
England went through this most uncom-
Portable ceremony in preparation for the
conservation of rings to be worn as
preventive or cure for cramp or ito re-
store contracted nerves.
There can be little doubt that the belief
In the medicinal power of these royalty
consecrated rings was long as faithfully
held as any medical maxim. and that
the king himself honestly believed that
virtue attended the objects in whose con-
secration he dragged his royal body
through the dust the records still extant
conclusively show.
The precious metal of which these rings
were made was the kings offering TO the
cross, out Of his own revenues; the house
hold books Of EdFard " and others, con-
tain items OF expense for that purpose,
so when one learns Of the self-denial and
physical discomfort suffered by a king
for the comfort of his people. one is a
bit ashamed of having thought of the
evil instead of the good IN these old
fellows, and wonders If this age is so
very much more loving than the ages
we call dark"

| A man walked into a shoe store on a

I wouldn't mind the cents extra on
| the rubbers,'' the customer said. eff they
were any good, but l wear 'em out now
in no time. I used TO wear a pair of
rubbers six months or a year, but now I
go through pair in two months; wear
off the heels so that they leak there and
crack the tops. Rubbers are not what
they used to be-"
That's because there's so little rubber
in them.' said the salesman. "They mix
in now so much other stuff. We've been
complaining of them for twenty years,
but ii doesn't do any good
you see. in recent years the consump-
ton of rubber has increased enormously
and the cost OF rubber has gone up the
same way. I suppose that really they
can't afford TO put so much rubber into
shoe now as they used to-
The customer stood up In his new rub
bers and started off, leaving his old rub
bers on the floor behind him.
You want TO leave your old rubbers?'
said the salesman.
why. yes" said the customer; they're
no more use to me-
That's So" said the salesman. There
isn't much good in a pair Of leaky rub
bers."
rs there any good in them?" the GUS
toner asked
The porters gather 'em up and sell
'em for 6 cents a pound. The rubber IN
them can't be used again in making rub
bers. but it can be worked up egain for
some rubber uses
