How kinq Signs Laws.

Most people will tell you that the
king must sign every act Of parliament
before it becomes law. 1t will astonish
these people to know that acts of par
Lament are never signed by King
George. When parliament passes an
act. as, for example, the recent military
service act, which conscripted all the
single men. copy on vellum was
placed in safe custody in the house Of
lords and endorsed by the clerk Of par
Lament. If the act is one concerning
money, as for instance, the budget, the
vellum copy Is also endorsed by the
speaker. How does the king give his
consent to an act of parliament? Well
he gives it by what is known as a royal
commission. All the various acts that
are passed at about the same time are
named in this commission, and the king
signs this. The king must actually
sign this commission. but should he be.
for any reason. not able to do so, the
royal signature may be specially
stamped upon the paper. But accord
ing to the law this stamp can only be
used 'in his majesty's presence and by
his majestys command given by word
Of mouth. A stamp of the kings sig
nature Is always kept ready for this
purpose.-Pear son's Weekly

is 1T ART?

Here is a picture in exchange show
ing a procession on Washington's
birthday, fair young woman leading
the train, and off at the side, with a
purpose, no doubt to adorn the pic
ture, is a young woman sitting down
with her legs exposed to the knees.
So it is with so much everyday art
now; that female nudity is the main
feature and meant to be the principal
attraction. 1t is strange the women
will tolerate the practice of making
their charms so common; or do sc
many of them enjoy the distinction?
There is one thing to be said about it,
which is, that the world is not improv-
ing under the influence of the exhibit
If one examines the matter closely
one will come to the conclusion that
beauty and impurity are not so far
apart as to need no caution. The wide
spread habit Of nude expositions in the
newspapers needs some strict regula-
ton, for it does much harm ~ Ohio

THE JOY STUFF.

Howe's Monthly: These Sunshine
magazines make too much of cheerful
ness; too much of radiating joy. The
most effective man is genteel and
quiet; no one should be a crouch, but
quiet politeness beats radiating joy.
The brotherhood of man, as taught
in the Sunshine magazines, is mainly
nonsense. None of us love our fell
low men particularly; many of them
bore us abominably. If you are fair,
polite, temperate and efficient, you will
be as cheerful as you need be- The
cheerfulness admired by the world is
the result of good health; Of doing
good work; of being as successful in
life as you should be

The world has lost its silence. That's
the trouble with it. BY silence, we
mean, of course, a sense of leisure.
That is surely gone The lamps are
no linger lit on quiet Every minute
is packed with noise or action. The
photograph, the movie, the auto
mobile always mean something to
hear, something to see, somewhere to
go. That is the constituency the mod
ern artist addresses. 1t has developed
in him new technique, spur-of-the-
moment style. Were a Dickens here
to-day, who would listen to him?
Certainly people Of professed culture
would not. They no longer read
Dickens. Thackeray grows tiresOme
with the years. Trollope, whose fic-
ton surely was engaging, is a dead

SOCIAL EVENT IN ATCHISON.

Ed Howe went once to a party in
Atchison, given by Kitty Everest. AS
he was leaving, she said, "Now, Ed.
for heavens sake say something orig
inal. I'm tired of hearing that they've
had a perfectly lovely evening or that
they have enjoyed themselves SO
much" Whereupon Ed replied:
well, Kitty, since you insist on the
truth, I may as we'll tell you, I've had
a hell of a good time! Good night"
And Kitty, lifting up her beautiful
face in eager enthusiasm, using in
reply that limpid and sparkling Eng
lish that has made Atchison famous
for fifty years, answered sweetly:
"Well, Ed I'm damn glad of it," Thus
adding a spontaniety and freshness to
the leave-taking that gladdened the
evening perceptibly.
