celebrated of all are the factories
which is exported to all the principal
cities of the world.
A tourist who visited Brussels at
the time of the Balkan war tells an
amusing story on himself He admits
he had become somewhat nervous and
excitable as result of his experiences
before reaching Belgium, so was de-
lighted to find himself safe and sound
in Brussels, where he put up at small
and quiet hotel But on retiring he
failed to find the expected rest, for his
dreams were suddenly interrupted by a
loud controversy, and after threats in
vehement French he was Mortified to
hear the sound of firearms.
Rushing from his chamber, he halt
ed one of the hotel attendants and told
him some one was being murdered
next door. But to the chagrin of the
traveller. the man only replied with
smiling shrug: But, no, monsieur, 1t is
only the play house." and the next
morning the American had pointed out
to him the gay posters of the popular
melodrama which was being performed
at the theater adjoining his hotel.
Throughout all Belgium the old Latin
saying is still current, to the effect
that Brussels rejoices in noble men.
Antwerp in money, Client in halters.
Bruges in pretty girls and Malines in
fools.
Malines got its unfortunate reputa-
ton, 1t is said, because once upon a
time some of the good burghers mis-
took the moonlight shining through
their cathedral tower for fire, and
the fire engines were called out to az
tinguish the conhagration.

because he had not placed its tower

Another splendid building in the
square is the Maison du Roi The
house of the king has three stories
and boasts an open gallery, like the
Italian loggias of the Venetian palaces
on the Grand canal, where the Brus-
sells grand danes could stand to view
the fetes and ceremonies taking place
In the Grand palace below. The man
sion has recently been restored and
lavishly regilded from top to bottom.
The enormously high roof, with its
rows of projecting windows, topped by
a quaint lantern, now is seen In all its
pristine glory.
Close by the Maison du Roi is the
building known as the Pigeon, the de-
ughtfully quaint guildhall Of the paint
ars which is decorated, not with
birds. but with four reliefs of lion
heads. Beyond is La Taupe, the guild
hall Of the tailors, but none of the
vuildhalls are older than the end OF
he seventeenth century. The greater
part of the square was destroyed by
The French under Villeroi in 1895. For
tunately, the city hall and kings man
aop escaped the fate of the other build
lngs in the Grande Place owing to the
TACT that they were isolated.
Brussels is a bright and healthy city,
and its museums and works OF art as
well as its historic associations, its IA
nous art schools and conseryatoire
have caused it to become a favorite
,olony for European and American stu

EFFECT OF LONG ASSOCIATION
Marked Facial and Other Resem-
blances Noticed Among Those who
Have Been Together Years.

That persons who live together for
a very long period not only acquire the
same mannerisms. but grow strong
facial resemblance is an established
fact But it is little known that the
same condition often exists among
mistress and servant being associated
together for a long period OF years.
There Is usually a strong desire on the
part Of most servants to ape their
mistresses, and this. added TO the TACT
of constant noarness. often extends
to facial resemblances.

In the eighth century on Doth

inner boulevards built upon arches
which extend through the city. The
old ramparts were leveled about fifteen
years ago. as in the city of Louvain, to
be converted into attractive prone
nades. No European city can boast OF
handsomer boulevards than those OF
Brussels, which have been constructed
through the heart of the old town.
Promenading along the broad, shady
avenues, completely lined on both sides
with Parisian-looking shops, gay with
lne carriages, autos and vehicles OF

dreds of stylishly gowned pedestrians,
the reason Brussels is known as Lit
