Wreck Of the White Ship,

The most famous Of all royal ship
wrecks il probably that Of the White
Ship. which gave Rossetti the subject
4 one Of his finest ballads. Henry |.
iad crossed to France to secure the al
cgiance Of the Norman barons and was
returning in triumph. Prince william,
the kings favorite son. did not sail
.honrd his fathers vessel. but followed
the White Ship, commanded by Fitz-
Stephen. the royal hereditary pilot.
Somewhere in midchannel the White
Ship separated from the feet and went
down with all on board. and Henry
never smiled again."
That historically stifed smile also
gave rise to the ribald verse-it came.
me thinks. from some Twainish Amer
lean:
Many wicked smile he smole,
And many wink he wunk.
But never never smole again
After the White Ship sunk.
London Spectator.

Erroine IL tho Royal Fur,

The fame Of the ermine as a crea'
ture 'patronized by royalty" dates
back to the reign of King Edward ILL.,.
who made it punishable offense for
any person except those Of royal birth
to wear the fur Of this handsome lit
tie animal. This tyrannous restriction
has been long removed. but ermine. OF
course. is still the royal fur and proba-
bly, owes its long continued populari-
ty rs an article Of personal adorn'
ment more to that fact than anything
else. 1t has. however. the great draw
back Of losing its pristine wilderness
after Il few years. while. owing to the
variation in the quality Of the fur
found on different animals of the tribe.
erlnine is far harder to match than
many other skins employed in the
making Of human apparel.-London
Globe.

Breakfast For q Man.

Just what is the correct food for
breakfast? Some hold that the Scot
fish hardness is directly due to the
national devotion to oatmeal. On the
other hand, famous physician once
adduced, as proof Of the superior vigor
Of the inhabitants Of Scotland, the fact
that they can survive such n lot Of
oatmeal. To add to our confusion,
here are the views Of old Mr.. Jordan.
He had brought up from the village
station the trunks and express pack
ages belonging to the artists from New
York who were spending the summer
In the cabin on the old Jordan place
and had waited good naturedly to open
the boxes for the ladies.
On opening the box of groceries he
found that one package had been pierre
ell by il nail. AS he looked at the con
tents sprinkiing themselves literally
over the floor. he smiled toleranrly

Tho Jerusalem Chamber.

One Of the rooms in Westminster ab-
hey that are Of peculiar interest is the
Jerusalem chamber. which was built
more than 500 years ago and was
probably at one time the abbot's with

that Henry ". died, in curious fulfill
ment of prophecy that he should die
in Jerusalem:

Which vainly l supposed the Holy Land.

The introduction. as an experiment,
Of automatic machines for stamping
letters by the London postofiice has
excited much interest in Austria. and
the chamber of commerce at Brunn
has petitoned the ministry Of COM
MERGE to introduce the system into
Austria. Stamp collectors, however,
are alarmed. as they fear that if this
method of stamping letters is univer-
sally adopted and postage stamps con
frequently become obsolete the public
will no longer take an interest in old
postage stamps and existing collec-
lions will lose much CO their value

fox coming down the road at full speed
and about twenty feet in the rear

race for nearly q mile. The pace was
terrific. and neither runner seemed to
gain an inch on the other for the whole
distance But the cat evidently had
more endurance and would have over
taken the fox had It not been for the
