A literary mystery of hundred

centenary number, recently issued, Of

most perfect ode in the language

The story is told of a man who
bought gallon of gin to take home,
and by way of label wrote his name
upon a pickup card which happened
TO be the seven of clubs, and tied it
10 the handle. His son, observing the
jug, quietly remarked, That's an aw

might come along with the eight OF

King Alfonso of Spain is said to be
a fatalist, and being of this temper
he is able to derive enjoyment from
occurrences that would alright most
people. A knife that he knocked out
of the hands of an assassin is hung
up in his den. The hides of two
horses killed in bomb explosions have
been made into rugs for his coy cor

was made on his life. and the next
day he visited the spot and pointed
