1t is generally agreed that dueling
took it's rise from the judicial combats
of the Celtic nations. The first formal
duel in England was that between VIII

1900. though 1t was pretty popular as

England dueling was checked In the
army In 1892 and gradually disappear

more enlightened public opinion. Duel
ing was never as popular in this coun-
try as 1t was I'm Europe, but never

fought here. The code may be said
to have received its death sentence

Mother Ross, the Trooper, Was Buried
With Military Honors.
For q member of the so called weaker
sex to be laid to rest with military
honors Is an event OF rare occurrence
and no less distinction.
To earn such a tribute, argues serv-
ices Of the highest merit, and very few
women have had the opportunity Of
qualifying for such honOrs. still fewes.
having achieved them.
OF these few. perhaps the most ia
nous was Mother Ross. Her life was
a military romance. In the year 1868
she Joined the army as a man. and
1t was not until she had served for
thirteen years that her real sex was
discovered.
As a trooper in the Scots Greys she
took part In the battle of Families and
was hit by almost the last shot fired by
the French. Then it transpired that
she was q woman. Later she married
a soldier and In the capacity Of regi-
mental cook accompanied him on ac-
tive service.
So imbued was she with the fighting
spirit that when any scrap was 60
ing on she would abandon her sauce
pans and fire her musket with the best
of her comrades In arms. BY Queen
Anne she was granted a pension of n
shilling a day on her retirement.
Her death took place In 1880. and she
was laid to rest In the burial ground
Of Chelsea hospital The funeral was
conducted with full military honors,
earned by right valiant service Oh

CostlY Coats.

An Indian prince after a court func-

with a friend, also an eastern poten-

then that his friends private secre.
tary might put 1t In the safe for the
night. 1t was a silk frock coat. but
tercup yellow and heavy with jewels.
How much may you be worth with
your coat on?" the prince was asked.
About 100000" was the reply.

his friend sadly. "My dress coat Is
worth not much more than half that

THE CRESCENT MOON.

Artists Have q knack Of Getting Il
Wrong In Pictures.
It Is astonishing how many artists
spoil what otherwise might be good
pictures by enormously depicting the
concave side Of the moon turned to-
ward the place Of sunset, writes Percy
Johnson In Popular Astronomy. The
convex or lighted side Of her crescent
is always presented to that part of the
sky In which the sun is situated.
The ley moon appears first as a deli
cate crescent In the evening Don after
sunset and sets almost Immediately.
The following morning 1t rises soon
after the sum-. Night after night 1t ap-
pears as a larger crescent farther and
farther from the sun, but always with
the illuminated side directed toward
the latter.
When about ven days old the moon
shows half her surface lighted up. She
Is then In her first quarter and is
just on the meridian at sunset. The
gibbous phase Is now entered upon un-
til full moon, when she rises as the sun
sets and Is on the meridian at midnight.
Now the light begins to disappear on
the side opposite the sun and the light.
ed side is directed toward the east.
She rises about midnight when she has
reached her last quarter" and gradu-
ally the crescent diminishes, and she
is seen only In the light Of the dawn.
Then she Is lost In the suns rays to
emerge again a few days later as q
new moon In the west.

CLOTHES IN SARDINIA.
Natives, Look a. Though Dressed For .
Medieval Pageant.


Large white sleeves beneath the
slashed sleeves Of his jacket. a full,
short, bright colored skirt and close
fitting white trousers tucked into high
boots or leggings constitute the typical
attire of the Sandman. One ould
think that a native thus bedight had
stepped from his place In a pageaL.
Of the middle age instead OF being
CARRIED In the customary costume for
feast days.
In some districts Of the island the
men ear a pointed cap resembling a
Phrygian bonnet, long and narrow
like a stocking, reaching almost to the
waist. This point is either worn
down over the shoulder or folded on
top Of the head and may be used as a
pillow at night. 1t is apt to contain
anything from bread to snuff, which is
indispensable to the older Sard. A
queer custom of some Of the younger
men Is to let the hair on top Of their
heads grow often to fifteen inches in
.ength and then roll It up into a puff,
which looks like a %pompadour across
the forehead.
Not only In their features, but in
their language do the natives Of Sar-
dinia retain traces Of the many races
which have occupied the island
through the centuries Phoenicians.
Cartha ginans, Romans, Saracens, Ital-
ians and Spaniards. Many dialects are
spoken, but Italian is now taught in

which the king avoids food waste III

with Premier Borden of Canada.
With the premier. Mr.. Hazen sat
at the imperial war conference, anu
the two were among those who dlnea
with the king.
Everybody in England has enough
to eat. but the country has come TO
realize that no food is to be wasted
at this time" Mr. Hazen said. King
George is Joining with his people IN
the food economy practices We were
his guests at Windsor Castle. and
found that no wine, beer or spirits OF
any kind were used in the kings
household The fare at the table has
been reduced to the utmost simplicity,
and waste IS avoided. For instance,
you cut your own bread. There Is
the loaf and the knife and you cut
what YOU want This is done to pre-
vent waste No toast Is allowed, be
