STUCK TO HIS FAITH.
Anyhow 1t Paid the Young Prussian
 Not to Change It.

Anyhow It Paid the Young Prussian Not to Change 1t.
 A king of Prussia who reigned about the beginning of last century was not ed for his geniality, and often in the course of his walks through the streets would enter into conversation with his subjects.
 One day he met young man and asked him what his faith was. The youth, who was somewhat of a wag answered, smiling, q believe what my tailor believes" The king entered pleasantly into the joke and then ask. ed again, And what does your tailor believe in?" "YOur majesty" replied the young man, "he believes that he will never get the 30 marks which ] owe him, and I believe 1t also."
 The king laughed heartily at the out spoken and unrestrained way in which he had answered him, and then gave him 30 marks "Now. then. you car pay your tailor and so change his faith" The young man fancied, how ever, that he could use the money for better purpose, and the tailor nat uraliy went unpaid.
 Not long afterward the king met the same youth, who, as he saw his maj esty approaching, tried to escape down side street. The king had, however, espied him and called after him. The youth, somewhat crestfallen and abashed, approached his majesty, who at once asked him if he had paid his tailor. A smile passed over the young mans face as he replied, Your majes- ty, l could not change my faith for 30 marks.''

 The Haag circus will exhibit at the fair grounds next Monday afternoon and evening. The following is from the Gulfport Times :'' Without doubt Gulfport never has seen such a crowd of people as were here to see the Mighty Haag Railroad Shows. Both in the afternoon and evening the tents were crowded with people. and in the afternoon hundreds could not secure tickets as the ticket wagon was closed before two o'clock. Long before time for the parade to make it's appearance the streets were crowded with people anxiOusly awaiting it, and not one was disappointed, as Mr. Haag has spent plenty of time and money on his parade. Never in the history of Gulf. port have there been as many pretty girls. funny clowns and good music in one parade. The Gulfport Times is sure it voices the sentiment of the people when it says, give us more shows like Haag.''

THE SUBTLE ASIATIC.
His Illustration of the Saying That
 "CIothes Make the Man."


 | Some hundreds of years ago there lived in Agshelin, q little town in Asia Minor, an imam, or village parson, the Khoja Nasr-ed-Din Effendi. Concern l ing him MT. H. c. Lukach tells some ! stories in his book, '"rhe Fringe of the East"
 One day a camel passed along the Street in which the khoja lived, and one of the khoja's neighbors who had never seen a camel before ran to ask him what this strange beast might be.
 Don't you know what that is?" said the khoja, who also had never seen a camel, but would not betray his igno- rance. '"That is a hare a thousand years old''
 A great man once gave feast to which, with much condescensiOn, he caused the khoja to be bidden. Ac- cordingly on the appointed day the khOja repaired to the great mans house and found himself in the midst of a fashionable and richly clad con- pany, which took no notice of the poor imam in his @lreadbare black gown No one greeted him or spoke to him and eventually he was shown by a servant to the lowest seat. After a little while the khoja slipped away un- observed and went into the hall where some of the mighty ones had left their outer garments. Selecting mag nificent gown richly lined with fur. he put 1t on and returned to the room. Nobody recognized this resplendent parsonage. whose arrival excited uni versal attention. The company rose to salute him, and the host, who had previously ignored him, approached, lowing, and inquired after his honor able health.
 The khoja stroked the sleeve of his borrowed garment. Answer, furw he said.
