When William Thaw, third, fell
in love with the beautiful Miss
Gladys Virginia Bradley of Bridge
port, Conn., and asked her to
marry him, she told him that if
he would come to her after six
months and show that he had for
saken the primrose path, and had
become a good boy instead of a
gilded youth, she would accept
him. Thaw, who always had in
dulged his delicate tastes with the
cream at the top of the bottle
of things, vowed that he would
lead the simple life and make
good. He did, and claimed his
bride in December, 1910. Thaw
has continued to be good, and
now his mother, Mrs. William
Thaw, jr., is to present him with
a fine country estate as a re-
ward. he has purchased ninety
acres Of the best land in the
fashionable Berkeley Heights,
near Pittsburg, and will build a
house that will be a splendid
monument to her sons victory.

Don't be disappointed if you fail to get lasting cure of piles with salves. The cause of piles is more than skin deep. It is sluggish, fabby veins-pockets filled with thick, bad blood.
 Hem Roid, a tablet tonic rem >edy, is taken inwardly, acts on the circulation and cures all kinds of piles thoroughly.

protest with the grievance committee

first prize be awarded TO his team.
Our total,score was higher than the
three teams which were awarded the
prizes" Captain Bulla stated. and I
! cannot understand why we were not

GERMAN LATCHKEYS.
Big Enough to Be Used a. Weapons Of
Attack or Defense.

Locksmithing in Germany is today
as important a trade as plumbing,
blacksmithing or the vocation OF the
barber, says our consul at Hanover in
a recent report. The first lock and key
were introduced into Prussia in the
fourteenth century and caused a con-
siderable sensation at the palace of the
elector of Brandenburg. He found
that by these devices he could do away
with the guard at his private doors
and thus materially reduce his house
hold expenses. Since that day the
schlosser, or locksmith. has been an es-
sential factor in German life.
The present German house key could
be used as a weapon of attack and de-
Tense, besides serving its original pur-
pose. 1t weighs on an average about
one-eighth of a pound. and as each per-
son entitled to carry a house and cor
ridor key has nearly a quarter Of a
pound Of soft iron in his pocket II
is conservatively estimated that the
amount of iron in circulation in Ger
many in the pockets Of the men and
in the hand bags Of women amounts to
1856 tons, besides an additional $500
tons for the keys to the interior Of
German homes. Thus something over
5000 tons Of iron are put into keys of
a size to be found nowhere in Amer
lea. However large the house or nu-
merous the apartments. the outer door
is locked promptly at 10 o'clock. and as
the German spends many of his even
ings out every person carries at least
one of these massive keys to effect an
entrance

The King Sent the Reply, and the Cap

Rear Admiral Sir Colin Keppel was
given the command of the royal yacht
Victoria and Albert by King Edward,
and on one occasion when the late king

would like to steer the yacht for a lit
tie way.
Admiral Keppel took him to the
wheel. and. having ascertained the
proper course to steer. his majesty
tried TO keep the yacht in it, with rath-
er poor success.
The vessel was being escorted by
squadron Of cruisers, and the cap
tain of one of these vessels. noticing
the wabbly course Of the Victoria and
Albert, thought he would rag" Ad-
miral Keppel on his bad steering.
He signaled a sarcastic inquiry "a 10

King Edward. seeing the string OF
flags go up. inquired their meaning.
Admiral Keppel went all the coIors
of the rainbow and tried to escape the
question but the king insisted When
at last he understood the meaning of
the signal his majesty went of into
peals of laughter. and after he had re-
covered a little he ordered a reply to
be signaled-
A few minutes later the captain of
the cruiser read this message: Pray
accept apologies. but am bit out Of
practice.-Edward."
Then the captain retired to his cabin
and kicked himself.-Pearson's Week
