LET us be energetic, but let US be

"a traveller, On a freezing January
night, called at an inn, but found it
full.
"SWell, landlord he said, 7 can't
sleep out on the snow crust. You must
put me up somehow
"I guess, then,' said the landlord.
well make up bed in the hall and
curtain it Off for you
Accordingly, this was done. And
the traveller, under a rather thin
blanket, fell asleep. But in the mid
die of the night he awoke, freezing.
An icy draught blew through his hair
and mustache; it even lifted his thin
blanket and swept over his bare limbs
"The traveller rose. The sheet shat
had been hung up as a partition had
come unfastened, and it was waving
merrily in the breeze.
Landlord!' shouted the traveller,
"'What is it.? voice shouted.
Landlord said the traveller, will
you please let me have a paper Of

QUEEN SAWS READY WIT.
A Story Appropriated From the An
mails of Irish Royalty.

The anger of King Colin was terri:
BILE. "Twas a fortnight before he
could address himself to his queen or
look her in the face and speak to her
and what he came to say to her then
was that she was shame and a dis
grace to him, but sure what could he
expect anyhow when he was such a
notorious fool as ever to marry beg
gar of a race of beggars. "Get up,'
says he, land dress yourself, and leave
my sight and my castle for evermore." +"
Every well and good, me- lord" says
Saav, says she. "I'm ready. I was
prepared for this, as you'll remember,
before I married you; but" says she,
"you remember your agreement
three back burdens Of the greatest
valuables I choose to carry out of
your castle at my lavin'?''
"Thirty-three," says he, ''if you like.
Twill be a cheap price to get rid OF
you"
''Thanky, me lord" says she. ''I'll
only ask three. And before I've got
them out maybe you'll think it's
enough"
"What is the first back burden you
choose?" said he.
"A back burden" says she, "of gold,
silver, diamonds and jeWelry."
In short time the king had bur-
den of them piled on her that near
almost broke her back, and with it
she went out over the drawbridge.
When she laid it down and came
back in again says the king, says he,
What will your second back burden
oe?"
For my second back burden" says
she, "hoist upon NE our baby boy"
The king gave a groan thatd rent
'ocks. But he wasn't the man to be
launted before any woman. He lifted
With his own hands the boy in whom
lis heart was wrapped up and, settin'
lis teeth hard, put him on Saws
houlders. She carried him out over
he drawbridge.

When she came back again says
Colin, says he, "Now then, name your
third and last burden, and we're done
with you forever, thank God!" .
Says Saav, says she, "Get on me
back yourself" ..
King Colin and his good Queen Saav
lived ever after the happiest and most
contented couple that Ireland ever
knew, a parable for all kings, and
queens and married couples in the
nation. saav lived and died the Wit
tiest, as her husband lived ever after
and died the justest and most gener-
Gus, most reasonable, sensible, affable
and amiable king that Ireland ever
knew.-Everybody's Magazine.

TREASURES KING INHERITS.
Over Five Tons of Gold Plate Now Be-
long to GeorgeSV.

Both Windsor Castle and Bucking
ham palace are overfowing witt
Treasures of every description-plate
pictures, jewels, statuary, books, and
relics of enormous historic value
When our late king came to the throne
| he found valuables of all kinds lock-
ed away, und;splayed and uncatalo-
gued, and-worse than all-absolutely
unprotected from fire.
During his all too brief reign King
Edward effected a complete revoiu-
ton. In the first place he installed
electric lights all through both the
chief royal residences, in the second
he put in every possible appliance and
arrangement for fire fighting, and af-
ter that extended the Royal Library,
inspected the gold pantry, and had
all the various treasures of the two
palaces properly inventoried and dis
played.
The value of the plate alone which
King George inherits is almost ines
timable The so-called gold pantry at
windsor consists of two large fire.
proof storerooms in which is kept
plate Of an estimated value of $780,
900.
The gold plate which is used for
state banquets weighs over five tons.
It is not, of course, all solid gold. If
the larger pieces were gold they
would be too heavy to move at all.
Some of the epergnes take four men
to lift. These are of silver-gilt. 1t
takes one man to carry two dishes or
eight plates. The latter are Of pure
gold.
There is not much ancient English
plate in the gold pantry. Charles 7.
melted down all the plate of his day
and coined it into money. But there
are some exquisite foreign pieces,
among them a great silver fagon TAX
en- from the flagship of the Spanish
Armada, and the famous Nautilus cup,
made by that master of the art, Ben
venuto Cellini There is a shield by
the same great Italian, and the Won
