Once king had daughter whom
he dearly loved. She had always
been brought up very sensibly in spite
of her being a princess. and had been
taught how to dress herself and how
to do up her own hair without the
help of lady'S maid. And her habit
was. after she had dressed in the
morning, to go into the garden to get
a breath of fragrant air before break
fast and to gather flower to place in
her hair.
One day, when she was in the gar
den. she heard voice saying:
How will you have your troubles
when you are young Or when you are
old?"
This happened several times and
the princess, filed with curiosity and
tired of hearing always the same ques-
ton, went one day into the palace and
said to her maid of honor:
do you know what has happened
to me these last few days? | keep
hearing voice that says to me, when
l am gathering my flowers, Which
will you do; go through your troubles
in your youth, or in your old age?"
The maid of honor replied:
Listen, royal lady: For my part, l
should say that | preferred having
my troubles when young With my
old age | would acquire more power"
The princess cOmbed and dressed
herself the next morning and went
into the garden as usual, where she
heard the voice that spoke to her;
and when it asked her the curious
question, the princess replied that she
would rather go through her troubles
in her youth than in her old age.
The voice rejoined:
Take leave, then, OF everything
here that is yours
That is not sc difficult" said the
princess.
But when she came to actually say
good-by it was ancther matter. 1t

The RnyaI Assent.

lie Roy lie veault' ('The king wills
it'') is the form of the words in which
the English king is accustomed to sig
Nifty his royal assent to bill which
has passed both houses of parliament
and is ready to be made statute law.
They are however, not the only
form of old NormanFrench words
which has survived and is still in
usage in our parliamentary system.
Thus. for instance, when bill is sent
up for consideration from. the com
mons to the lords. it is indorsed by
the clerk with the words, Soft baille
aux Seigneurs" (''Let it be sent to the
Lords"), and when the converse opera
ton takes place the corresponding
words ares Soft baille aux Communs."
The royal assent to money bills is
more deliberately expressed: lie Roy
remercie ses bons sujets, accepte leur
benevolence, ct ainsi lie veault' C'The
king thanks mis- loyal subjects, ac-
cepts their gift. and so wills it,. For
private bills still another form of as
sent is used: Soft fait CONNIE il est
desire" t"Let it be done as desired").

She Knew

The library and household effects of
a man who had once entertained in a
lavish way were sold at public auc-
ton, and among the persons who
went to the sale were many who had
enjoyed the fallen family's hospitality.
When a set OF after-dinner cups was
put up one woman said: There are
only five of those, not six The auc-
tioneer consulted his catalogue. and
replied: Thank you; you are right"
and proceeded with the sale
Then the woman whispered to the
one sent to her: 81 knew l was right,
because my husband dropped one of
that set the last time we dined there"

per cent, and yet 2,79l were killed
and 1920 injured last year. while in

single fatality, although its main line
of one thousand miles has a large
portion Of its mileage in single track.
This increased safety OF passengers is
attributed by the interstate commerce

There were her maids Of honor, her
fine carriage and her pretty dresses.
There was her saddle horse, per-

with them. There were her dog and

Her dog was a delightful little

means daisy. The princess had
named him because he was pure white

Perhaps it, is more proper to speak of
these as stickers, as they cannot be used
as postage. The proceeds of the sale of
these stickers will be used in the

sale this holiday season will exceed a
million dollars.
