RoyeI Mistakes.

Sovereigns and princes are strangely given to making astonishing mistakes while dealing with dates. The inscrip- tion on King Edward VII.'s coffin that he died ill the ninth year of his reign instead of the tenth is only an ex- ample of many similar errors. In No
 yember, 1858. Queen Victoria wrote to the late king to inform him that he might consider himself emancipated from parental authority and control, as he was now eighteen years old and therefore of age. Her majestys letter, which was very long, was quasi ser mon, and it ended by informing the then Prince of Wales that he would be forthwith made a knight of the Garter and a colonel in the army. How Queen Victoria and Prince Albert fell into so extraordinary a mistake it is impossI- ble to understand, for the prince had only then completed his seventeenth year. Dean Wellesley, to whom the young prince showed the letter. at once detected the serious error into which the queen had fallen, but he thought it best to say nothing.-London Truth.

 And why should not lick you. pray?" thundered the schoolmaster.
 "W'y, sir. COS I think Eve lad enough" gasped James. Yesterday the boy as played truant with and I fell out and he licked me, and a man we threw stones at caught me and licked me, the driver of cart we hung on to licked me, the owner of u cat we chased licked me. Then when l got home mother licked me, and after that father licked me, and then mother licked me again for calling her a sneak for telling father"
 "Well," responded the master grim. ly. "by this time one licking more or less won't make much difference, and it seems hard I shouldn't have my whack. Come here, sirw-London An Sw0rS.

earcas&io Cabbv.

A certain nobleman, who may be called Lord K, bears the reputation of being somewhat stingy in money matters On wet afternoon he hired a cab to take him to Victoria station. Arrived at the station, he handed the cabman a shilling and of course was met by the inevitable demand for an extra sixpence.
 Certainly not" said the other promptly. You came the longest way as an excuse to extort money. Why didn't you go through St. James park?"
 The cabman saw he had no chance and said sneeringly:
 ''Cos St. James park is closed. That's why"
 "Nonsense." said the other sternly.
 ''It's right, though" was the grave reply. ''They say that Lord X. dropped a shilling coming across the park last evening, and the gates are closed until they find it."-London Tit-Bits.

 He wasn't good at conundrums. but when his turn came to ask one at little social party he thought he could remember a good one he had heard. It was the old riddle:
 ssWhy is a woman like the ivyg
 The answer, of course. is the gallant expla aaation:
 Because the more you're ruined the closer she sticks.''
 But he got it mixed and asked:
 'Wby is the ivy like a womanY
 None of the ladies present could give an appropriate reply. so he himself ventured this maladroir solution:

on our streets and bed the sand streets
with them, instead of trying to burn
them. There is one thing the Wom-

against everybody littering our side
walks and streets with loose papers
that makes Ocala on a windy day the
untidiest city in the state. Loose pa
pers and non-enforcement of the spit
ting ordinance is no credit to either
our taste or our tidyness. What is
the use of a law if it is not enforced .?
