Berlin, Oct 5.-There are in eX-
1stence more than 1000 orders and
decorations conferred as a mark of
honor and distinction and for service
rendered. To this number of stars.
''crosses" and medals, Emperor Will
lam has just added two more. Now
some of the German papers are begin
ing to ask questions whether there are
not already such a large number that
many of them will soon begin to
lose the distinction and honor that
30 long attached to their possession
There is not a principality, however
small, which has not half a dozen
"orders" with which the ruler can graft
fly the vanity Of his subjects. The 26
states which make up the German Err
pire, alone have several hundred. Were
the rulers of the German states to en-
change with one another, all their
''Orders', each would have more than
could find room upon his chest. Rus
STA, Austria and England each have an
imposing list of stars" and Crosses"
some as large as small saucers.
In few countries is there such a crav-
ing to be the recipient OF an order
as In Germany, Austria and Russia.
IT exceeds even the craving for Of
flee among American politicians. The
pride and satisfaction of an Austrian
or German, who has just received an
"order." rs they are called in German,
Ss almost beyond conception to any one
not familiar with this peculiar trait
Of character. And. 1t is not confined to
monarchies. What a son Of the Re-
public Of France would not do for the
coveted cross Of the Legion Of Honor,
could hardly be chronicled. whils in the
United States this same feeling finds
expression in the many beautiful in
signals worn by members of the secret
societies.

The Hundred Club" lin French, the
"Club des Cents') is a new association
Of automobile owners in France whose
object is to bring back into their an
Gent excellence the inns along rural
routes.
Before railroads spread their steel
network all over the land, French coun-
try inns had a reputation for good
things to eat Dainty cooking and
wines Of vintages that were sacred were
met with everywhere. But when travel
took to railway lines instead Of pri-
vate conveyance and swaying mall
coaches, the inns lost their clients and,
naturally, where there was no demand
there came to be no supply.
Then the automobile was born. With
this mode of travel. touring became
more and more common. Country inns
regained their importance but, sad to
say. the new crop of inn-keepers are
not always equal to their jobs. They
have been serving the coarse appetites
Of yokels for so long they think any old
vino is good and any old food sufficient
for mortal ne DIS.
The Hundred Club" has set about to
change all this. They are going to ed.
ucate mine host" and boycott the inns
that don't Keep l. clean house and a
palatable table.

Deaths From tie Disease Make Up Half the

same time gourmets, are eligible to

perity to many little wayside hotels.
Here are some Of the maxims printed
for circulation among Inn keepers:
1.-THE Hundred Club" favors small

I'VE insist on good cooking.
"A good hotel is recognized by its
good coffee. No chicory. Good coffee

"A hotel-keeper who has not his spe-

not worthy Of the Hundred club.

1.-THE only factory the Hundred club
admits Of for the preparation Of meals
is-the kitchen.
Fancy cooking is often the enemy
OF good cooking.

at table. in tiny blazing-hot dining
room, with eight big gas Jets burning
away. Then we would go into the
drawing groom. In about 40 minutes
we would go back to the dining room
for another session. Victor Hugo was
very sober. He never drank drop of
liquor or smoked a cigar. He drank
wine, observation-disclosures knows, how
much sugar he put in it!-and took It
like water. He cared little whether the
wine came from Bordeaux or from the
suburbs Of Paris; he could not tell the
