*“■• ■ * i i'iiiiii WASN’T ENTITLED TO MEDAL President of Anti-Cruelty Society Made Decision Positively Brutal In Its Frankness. “Mrs. Waldorf Aster at the port of New York declared the other day that she never wore aigrettes or the teath er* of song birds, or the plume* of anything that flies. Yet she was wearing sables at the time; her boots were of calfskin; her gloves were kid, and she would go to the Ritz-Carlton for luncheon and swallow tiny, living oysters, afterward eating young trout, cutlets of lamb, grilled quail, and so forth and no on. Oh, consistency!" The speaker was Dr. L. G. Witherspoon, the San Francisco dietician, lie continued: "Maa is cruel toward the animals. There is no denying it. And hence Mrs. Waldorf Astor is rather foolish to prate of her kindness as regards aigrettes when, on her behalf, wo filter daily birds and sheep, sables and seals, fish and kids. “Yes. as the world is constituted, • any talk of kindness toward animals strikes me as absurd—reminds me, in foot, of the Anti-Cruelty Society of Nola Chticky. "A man with a big club appeared at the annual convention of this society end demanded tho annual medal, or . first prize. “‘What kindness,’ the president asked him, 'what kindness have you si >wn, my man, toward the lower animals that entitles you to our medal’’ “ 'Wai. yer honor.’ Said the man. 'I spared the life of a b'ar. I might ’a’ killed him with this here club. But I jet him off.’ “Where was this bear?” the presi- . dent asked. ‘Where was he, and what ' had he done to you?’ “ 'He’d killed my wife,’ the man replied. ‘“Ho, bo!’ cried the president. ‘And ’ you demon! our gold medal? My friend, you’ve been sufficiently revs arded already.’ ” OPENED UP WESTERN CANADA Prince Ri vert, Famous Soldier, Was Fi.-si. Governor of the Hudson's Bay Company. Six years from this month will mark tl.e tercentenary of the blrjh of i’Hnce Rupert. gr- it English military offi< ■ r whose nama is forever associated with western Canada by reason of the fact that he was one of the organJr.crs and the first governor of the Hi: iron's Bay company. The territories of the company, now the west<n provinces of the dominion, were Ic-t called Rupert's land in honor of t’-e nr-"'e Rnpert was the third son < di’.rk V. of Bohemia and Elix- ; h. sister of Charles I. of England. He was not'd for his reckless bravery in battle, v. hlch be first displayed on the continent. He then went to England to assist bis uncle, Charles 1., t d in 1618 was ma 'e admiral of the E fleet. Aft r the restoration he v .s made lord high admiral and fought i ain-t the Dutch. His later years ■were largely devoted to scientific study i d the affair as the Hudson's Bay company. Charles 11. granted a charter t.. Rupert and 17 other nobles.and I 1c.2 n, incorporated them as the ■ uor and company of adventurer.-. of Ergland trading into Hudson's ! y.” The pan played by this comj rln 'ae development of the west . c> ■ ftl u'.es one of the many romantic cl : ■ rs in tin* history of the North American continent. Sublime Effrontery. Laboucherea grandfather, Pierre Caesar, was one of Napoleon’s broken-. On one occasion Pierre Caesar was sent by Mr. John Hop* (his employer) to England to see Sir Francis Baring on some burines* and fell in love with Sir Francis' third daughter. . Dorothy. Before leaving England he tusked Sir Francis to permit him to become engaged to his daughter. Sir Francis refused. Pierre Caesar then ' said, "Would it make any difference • to your derision if you knew that Mr. Hope was about to take :Ae into partnership?" Sir Francis unhesitatingly n lniltu-d that it y-ould. Pierre Cncrar then went lack to Holland and sugg - ted to Mr. Hope that he might be inken Into partnership. On Mr. Hope d<«crontging the idea, he said: “Would it make any difference to your ’ d«' islon if you knew that I was enpared to the daughter of Slr-Fraacis Baring?" Mr. Hope replied. "Certalaly.’’ Whereupon the wily clerk said. "Well, lam engaged to Mlsa Dorothy Baring” That very day he was able • to write to Sir Francis announcing th-' news of his admission to partner- '■ ah Ip tn tl.e house of Hope, and in the same tetter ha claimed tho hand of hi* bride.
