Elizabeth Christina

MARSHALL.
Charles she, like the present queen of
Spain, had first to espouse the faith
of her husband. And when all was
ready and Elizabeth was about to
depart for the home of her future
husband her pious grandfather, who
had urged the union, wrote thus:
1.-The Lord may make Lisebetchen an
other Joseph for whose sake the di-
vine blessing and protection may be
upon our house. Farewell, then, fu-
ture grandmother of emperors!'
Elizabeth Christian is usually
counted among the most beautiful
queens of history, yet she probably
won this reputation by her charm
ing manners rather than because OF
her perfection of feature. Lady Mon
tague of England while singing her
praises most enthusiastically admit
ted that she was not of the classic
order of beauty. ''She has match-
less cmplexion," wrote Lady Mon"
tague, "and beautiful hands, and IN
her mouth there are thousand
charms that touch the SOUL

army is composed of insccts the very

their cunning effectiveness as moth

warriors are consecratod to slaughter,

sanguine task that, as far as the

longer be a menace and a terror No

Decision In Subway Explosion Case

NEW YORK, April 2S.-After a de-
lay of eleven years, during which time
all the parties to the case died, a de-
cision was filed in the county clerks
Office yesterday awarding $166,277 to
the owners of the Murray Hill Hotel
for damage to the building by the
explosion of dynamite in front of the
hotel January q, 1902. The Judgment
is directed in favor of the estate of
Hugh Smith and against the estate
of John b. Mcdonald, the subway
contractor. The dynamite was for
use in the excavation of the section
of the subway under Park avenue.
The suit was brought in 1893 for $780,
900 damages against the city of New
York, the Rapid Transit Subway Con-
struction Company and John b. Nc
Donald. The case was thrown ont by
the trial judge, but the Court of APP

The Way to BE Great.

From f. W. Howe's Monthly.
Some people believe that in order
to be great they must write a book,
paint a picture, deliver an Grafton or
be elected to an office
Anyone may become great, in the
most insignificant community.
Greatness is getting to work early
and regularly; in working effective
ly; in meeting customers politely,
and treating them fairly; in increas-
ing your knowledge of your trade;
in realizing that good conduct for its
own sake is the greatest thing in the
world.
The degree in which you practise
these simple virtues will decide the
degree of your greatness.
Greatness is simplicity: simplicity
is effectiveness; effectiveness is sue
cess.

Science of Happiness

volume entitled 1.-The Science OF
Happiness by Jean Finot, author OF
problems of the Sexes" has just
been published by the Putnams. Too
many of the great men of the past
to whom the world looks for guidance
have stepped their pens in the murky
pool of pesSimism. The author with a
more sane outlook points to the road
that leads to happiness-a road which
Is not tortuous. labyrinthian path
through obscurity but broad high
way of light which lies open to the
common man. 1t is the will-o'-the-
wisps of false ambition, the pursuit
of unworthy, or at least unsatisfying,
goals, the author points out, that
have weaned us from the sure ap-
preach to felicity. Even the sorrows
of life have their place in the glorious
whole, through contrast setting forth
more dazZlingly the high lights of ex-
istence. The author examines into
the different manifestations of pessi-
mism throughout the ages and deals
a crushing blow to it's adherents. His
outlook upon the future is full of OPP
timism.

Fees of New York Lawyers.

From the Outlook.
OF the entire body of about 5000
lawyers in the city of New York,
probably 10 per cent. are in receipt
OF very respectable incomes. one
tenth of the 500 may be in receipt
of incomes of $4,000 or more; an
other 100 may be receiving between
$4,000 and $4,000, anither $50 be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, and the re-
mainder will receive from $4,000 to
nearly $4,000 If the incomes of law
yers were revealed, it would prob
ably occasion surprise to find how
few receive more than $500 a year.
| venture to say that at no time
and in no country have the fees re-
ceiVed by lawyers been as large as
those received by New York city law
yers during the last thirty years. A

income received by an American law
