LUCKY SlXPENCE SAVED HIM
Good Story Of How Fate interviewed
to Preserve Beau Brummell to
hiStory's Pages.

The old superstition about the lucky
charm of a crooked siXpence arose
early in the Eighteenth century, and
its author was none other than Beau
Brummel, the most famous of the
worlds dandies, Brummel, although
Wales, came from common enough
stock, his grandfather having been
valet. But he saved, as did Brum-
melFs father, and Brummell had some
S150,000 to serve him. lie became
great gambler and a good loser, often
stalking thousands of pounds. one
night he played at Walters club, and
when he rose from the table he was
pauper. Not only that, but heavily
in debt.
He wandered out into the London
streets, with head downcast; and as
he strolled along he picked up
crooked sixpence. In a whimsical mo-
ment he returned to the club ana
matched it with chance friend. He
won, matched again and again, and
won each time. The game changed
to shilling matches, and then to gold
pieces and Brummell at the end OF
a few minutes found himself with two
or three pounds. He went to the
gaming table, sat down, and when
dawn came and the game closed he
had won over 1900 pounds. or about
100000 The crooked sixpence he car
ried with him for years, and shortly
after he lost it his bad luck arose
again. and he once more became a
pauper.

BILL FOR PLURAL WIVES
Roumanians Would Follow Example
 of Their Crown Prince.

Berlin, July 22.-The Roumanian Parliament is about to be asked to legalize plural wives, according to dispatch from Bucharest.
 A semiofficiaI Bucharest news paper announces that at the next session of the Chamber of Deputies a bill will be introduced making it legal for men to have two wives if they so desire to challenge fate.
 The bill. it is claimed. will enter Parliament with the support of a number of deputies, The attitude taken is that if the heir to the throne can marry two wives, sue vessively, Roumanians should have the same rights and privileges.
 The crown prince married Iizie Lambrine eloping with her to Odes- sa, where the couple were welded in church. She refused to be di- vorced, but the crown prince recently married Princess Helena of Greece. A special law was passed to legal ize this union. It is this latter mar riage which has started the move ment for law legalizing two wives for every man who thinks he can stand the double yoke
