Charles VI of France seems really to
have loved the fair lady, Isabella of
Bavaria, whom he married at Rheims
on November {, 1880.
Charles was called the Well-Beloved. /"
He was a lovable chap, fond of sport,
brave in battle, good-natured and un-
Outstanding.
An adventure of his early married
days shows the sort of man he was. He
was then travelling over his domain,
showing himself to his people, and insti-
tuting popular reforms.
From Toulouse he started back toward
Paris, sleeping the first night at Cha-
teau Neuf d'Aulroy, and then continuing
to Montpelier, where he was so mag
nificently entertained that he remained
for three days.
The fair ladies of Montpelier futtered
about the young monarch like butter
flies, doing everything in their power to
ssmuse him; but Charles was signing in
wardly for Isabella. To his brother, the
Duke of Touraine. who accompanied
him, he said: Il wish we were in Paris,
for I have great desire to see the
queen"
He smiled at the duke.
IT suppose" he went on, that my
desire to see the queen is no greater
than yours to see my sister-in-law, your
wife"
my lord" retorted Touraine, I'VE
ahall never get there by wishing It; the
distance is too great"
This was true, for Paris lay $50 leagues
from Montpelier-that Is to say. about
$50 miles. (Some accounts give the dis
lance as 191 leagues, or 573 miles,.
Charles considered this distance.
"I think, If I pleased" ne told the
duke, that could very soon be in
Paris"
"Then 1t must be by dint of hard rid
ing" said Touraine, land not otherwise,
and can do that, too"
Come" challenged the king, "who
will be there. flrst-you or l? Let us
wager on it."
The Duke of Touraine loved money
greatly. He bethought himself, now,
that he was sturdier than the king.
with all my heart" he answered.
"'What amount shall the stake be?"
Charles suggested SEQ fracs. The
duke accepted. They set of the next
morning. Charles took one route, the
duke another.
-Four and a half days later Charles
reached Paris and rode at once to the
Hotel de Saint Pol, where the queen
and the duchess lived. AS he entered
he was confronted by the duke. He
had made the journey in four and one
third days, sparing himself by riding

has shown the deepest interest.
He wants the new Memorial Bridge
over the Potomac to Arlington, now un-
der construction, named after that
Swedish-born American patriot, John
Ericsson, and also to name the boule-
ward approach to the bridge Ericsson
Boulevard"
Ask KnutSon about Ericsson and he
will unhesitatingly tell you that it is
his opinion that he, next to Lincoln and
Grant, did more than any other man to
save the Union,
Born in Sweden" he says, Ericsson
was a great American patriot.
ct was he who devised the Monitor,
which enabled the North to maintain
the blockade and win the war. He in

his invention of the screw propeller

One famous psychologist says that We

that Amos n Andy have come forth
with the salt of salvation. That salt
is laughter, which in all times and in

narcotic. All you have to do is sit,
