STRINGENT RULES OF ROYALTY.
Curiosities of Regal Etiquette at Va
rious Courts.
r,.~us ma Dat,

From I1t-BltS.
A curious curtailment OF the royal pre-
rogative is effected by ali act Of parliament
passed in the reign Of George ILL.,. which
deals with Sabbath breaking. In this act
il is distinctly stated that the monarch
shall not have the power to pardon any
persons convicted of a certain form Of
Sabbath breaking. Yet his majesty can, Of
course, pardon ninety-nine out of every
hundred persons In the land.
A number of years ago it was perfectly
permissible, and. in fact, a matter Of strict
etiquette, for a visitor who could obtain an
audience with the SULTAN of Turkey to
bow and kiss the hand Of that oriental
potentate. Anarchists, however, took ad-
vantage Of the privilege, and on one
memorable occasion a treacherous ennis
sary drove a dagger into the heart of his
sovereign, and from that time forth the
privilege has been disallowed.
When the youthful king of Spain was
twelve years Of age he one day mad the
misfortune to slip and fall down a fight of
the palace stepA The fall would very
probably have hS-n attended with fatal re-
suits had 1t not been for a servant, who
extended a kindly hand and saved his
young master by breaking the fall. But,
by a stringent rule of Spanish etiquette,
no servant may dare touch the sacred per-
son of the king, and for this very grave
offense the servant was at once dismissed.
BY the remarkable law of royal ETH
auette, which has existed for a number Of
years past at the court of Siam. no person
is permitted to sleep in an apartment stu
ated above that occupied by the king. A
deliberate breach of this rule has on more
than one occasion been punished by death.
Recently when tho king of Siam paid a
visit to Paris a number of bed rooms were
reserved, directly above that in which

A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET

-Four years ago l suffered severely
with a terrible eczema, being a mass
of sores from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time I suffered continual torture
from itching and burning. After being
given up by my doctor I was advised
to try Cuticura Remedies. After the
Grst bath with Cuticura Soap and ap-
plication of Cuticura Ointment I en-
joyed the first good sleep during my
entire illness. I also used Cuticura
Resolvent and the treatment was con.
tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time I was able to be
about the house, entirely cured, and
have felt no i'll effects since. l would
advise any person suffering from any
form of skin trouble to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies, as I know what they
did for me. Mrs. Edward Nenning,

Controlled Newspapers.

The Atchison Globe says that no ad.
vertiser has ever tried to control its ed
itorial policy, the remark being occa.
stoned by the charge often made nova.
days, that the big advertisers direct
the editorial policy Of newspapers.
The experience Of the Globe Is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does a great deal Of ad-
vertising Is more interested in the cir.
culation department Of a newspaper
than in the editorial department. II a
daily paper goes to the homes of the
people, and is read by them, he is salts
fed, and 1t may chase after any theory
or fad, for all he cares. He has troubles
of his own, and he isn't trying to shout
der those of the editorial brethren.
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside of the editorial rooms,
and a good many of them, more's the
pity; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space.
The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often o n
trolled by chronic oficeseekers, whose
first concern is their own interests.
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations, and the voice of
such newspapers is always raised in
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by its owner, and he
is supposed to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts Of
times; there are people who consider
it his duty to insult his advertisers,
just to show that he is free and inde-
pendent. If he shows a decent respect
for his patrons, who pay him their
money, and make it possible for him to
carry on the business, he is "subsi-
died" or controlled" The newspaper
owner is a business man, like the dry
goods man Or the grocer. The mer-
chants are expected, to have considera-
ton for their customers, and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who spends five dollars with
them, but the publisher is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing
that he Is ungrateful for the patron
age of his friends. 1t Is a funny com
bination when you think it over

After luncheon at Mr.. Robinson's

Colonel Roosevelt, again entered White

The supremacy of the White cars

Economy" said Daniel W. Field,

Boston, who at the age Of forty-five
has entered Harvard, economy is es.

TOO many men fail to attain to

When a Royal Train Breaks Down.

1t may not be generally known that
a telegraphist always accompanies a
royal train. In case of any accident a
ladder is placed against the nearest
telegraph post and a wire attached or
connected with an instrument, which
the telegraphist works while sitting on
the bank. BY this means word can be
sent at once to the nearest railway sta
ton, giving such instructions or noti-
fcations as may be deemed necessary.
When a train with the sovereign on
board is travelling all the men in re-
sponsible positions are forewarned. A
trial was made once. The royal train
was purposely stopped and the tele-
graphist sent off his dispatch in the
manner described. The result was sat
isfactory in every respect. Otherwise
the t~elegraphist's services have never
been called into requisition during q
royal railway journey.

IUnflatterjnu Truth.

A Chicago physician gleefully tells
; child story at his own expense. The
Eve children of some faithful patients
had measles, and during their rather
long stay in the improvised home hos
pital they lever failed to greet his
Sally visit with pleased reclamation.
The good doctor felt duly flattered,
but rashly pressed the children, in the
days of convalescense, for the reason
of this sudden affection. At last the
youngest and most %indiscreet let slip
the better truth.
I'VE felt so sick that we wanted
awfully to do something naughty, but
we were afraid to be bad for fear you
and the nurse would give us more hor-
rid medicine. So we were awfully
glad to see you, always, cause you
made US stick out our tongues. We

ST. JOHNS CROWDED AT
MASSES DURING MISSION.

Dozens of men who went to confess
sion yesterday afternoon and last night
received communion at the 8 o'clock
mass this morning in old st. Johns
Church, where the Rev. Joseph Daily
and the Rev. Thomas A. Calvin are
giving a mission for men. More re-
ceived at the 6 o'clock mass, and men,
women and children were at the 8
o'clock mass. One Of the mission priests
gave a short instruction at each mass.
Father Calvin preached the mission
sermon. His subject was Hell" He
said he did not like to preach on such
a terrible thing, and it was his duty as
a priest to warn men that all who die
in mortal sin God would punish.
Father Calvin was intensely dramatic
in describing the deadly effects of NOR
tai sins on men n their families.
Father Poels, rector of the church, off,
ciated at the benediction of the blessed
sacrament. He then urged the men
who are making the mission to become
members of the Society of the Sacred
Heart or the Holy Name Society Of the
parish. He said he was greatly pleased
at the earnestness of the men, their at
services.
Tomorrow night the men who made
the mission will be dedicated to the
Blessed Virgin in a solemn service by
the mission priests.

Judge Rellstab yesterday directed a YER
dict Of not guilty for D. Harry Chan
dler, of vineland, president of the
Vineland National Bank. accused Of
being party to a scheme to defraud by
the use Of the malls. Chandler Is a
leading citizen of Vineland, a shoe

bills by mail was the work of Black.
Black changed his plea of not guilty
and entered one of non vult when he
saw that the court was going to take

RECIPE FOR HAPPINESS
On Eve of Birthday Anniversary

honor last night by the General So
ciety of Mechanics and Tradesmen on
the occasion of the society's 125th an

length of his philanthropies and then
touched on his early life, winding up
with the observation that hts heart
went out in sympathy for the sons OF
millionaires. 1t was the son of poor
parents, he said, who realized what a
fathers and a mothers love was, and
who had to toll hard for all he got
who was the boy to be envted.
