protection and security to some which
should be given to all alike in the en-

on the ground that "the regulation IS

THE MYSTERY OF THE NORTH SEA

NAMED impenetrable since the British and Ger

glimpse has been given the operations of the two
great naval ornaments either of which is vastly
greater power than has ever assembled on the sea
under a single flag.
For years the two nations have been building war
ships against each other in a mortal rivalry that at
engh has brought the nayies face to face the
battle-ground which both have chosen For long ago 1t
vas declared that the question of supremacy must be
fought out in the North Sea- To be prepared for this

missed the women who had amused
him and spent his last hours with his
eonfessor, preparing his soul for
death. A few days after the king
had died Du Barry received a lettre
de cachet, ordering her to enter a
convent. Instead of this Du Barry
lived in retirement in chateau
which the king had given her. Not
many years later, when the French
revolution had dethroned the Bour-
bons, Du Barry, the one-time favorite
of a king, was seized by the mob and
sent to the guillotine.
Agnes Strickland, who was born on
August 10. 1886, in London, is well
known, in England especially, as the
historian and biographer of the Eng
fish queens. When the idea first en-
tered her mind to write the biog-
raphies of all the queens of her
native land Victoria was a young
girl and had just assembled the
throne, and because Miss Strickland
obtained permission to dedicate her
work to Victoria, the success of the
venture was assured. When, how
ever, Miss Strickland came to the
lives of the queens of Henry VIII.
and asked permission of the authori-
ties to look into the papers relating
to the lives of these unfortunate
queens, she was at first refused, but
later, when this refusal was changed
to permission, Miss Strickland was
able to- publish some surprising de-
tails of the lives of those much
talked about queens.

know If the fishing in the neighbor-

A telephone salesman approached
butcher to terminate a contract en-
braced in the recent order of the New
York P. S. c., which was afterwards
recalled. At the mere thought that
it was intended to deprive him of his
telephone, the butcher seized a cleav-
er to enforce his protest. Simultane-
ously the salesman seized a stool. and
together they invented a new dance
not known as the hesitation, the
salesman making the best explana-
ton possible meanwhile. Fortu-
nately, the street door was open, and
at the. first opportunity the salesman
backed out. A passerby stopped long
enough to ascertain the cause of the
dispute, and promptly called up the
local office from a nearby telephone
and explained that the salesman had
conducted himself with exemplary
tact and cleverness. When the order
was withdrawn the butcher explained
that he would allow no one to take
his telephone from him.-New York
