Consequently it Is easily wetted and does not dry quickly. Lunatics' Letters.

Saxe was a marecbal-de-camp at twenty-four, marshal of France at forty-four and at forty-nine gained the famous victory at Fontenoy. Irish LaBgnafe Is Difficult. The Irish language has only eighteen letters. Sometimes each letter is writ ten separately and not Joined together, The chief difficulty in learning Irish Is that there are Innumerable abbrevia tions for words and phrases. The Irish language Is nonphonetlc, the words rarely being a key to the correct pro nunciation. Walking. An averaco walking pace of a healthy man or woman Is said to be seventy-five steps a minute. ., Sheet Anchor. The "sheet anchor," the name given to the largest anchor carried by a ves sel, is really "shote anchor," and so called because of its great weight which makes It easy to shoot out In case of emergency. Patent nights. Every patent contains a grant to the patentee, his heirs or assigns, of a right to manufacture the article spec! fled during the term of seventeen years. Snffollc, England. Not only the nasal sounds, but many American phrases, the quite common In Suffolk, England, among the farm ers and the peasantry, and the stranger passing an afternoon In Woodbrldge market might fancy himself In Mas sachusetts. Cress Is Very Healthful. The old Greeks and Romans held cress In the highest esteem, crediting It with wonderful restorative powers for both mind nnd body, possessing the double quality of food and medicine, The true epicure prefers cress, as the Frenchman does his radish, for break fast with a dash of salt and thin slices of bread and butter.

THE ROYAL BOX. When King Edward was Prince of Wales he was known In familiar cir cles as "Teddy Wales." -King Leopold of Belgium delights In a collection or ancient timepieces, one of the most valuable being a master piece which , belonged to Marie An toinette. The late Czar Alexander III. of Rus sia was once considerably embarrassed by a circus of performing fleas, sent him by Prince Henry of Reuss as a birthday present. The young king of Spain is an expert In the use of the sword. When a child he practiced with wooden swords with the young nobles of his court.

The memoirs of General Kuropatkln, a work covering the' Russo-Japanese war, are being published in Moscow under the direction of the author. The most remarkable thing about the career of Justin McCarthy is the tremendous amount of work he has been able to accomplish. Novelist, journal 1st, historian, politician and party lead er, he has found time to travel widely and to cultivate delightful social rela tlons with most of the leading literary. artistic and political people of his time, THE AUTOMOBILE. An English medical authority says fast automobile riding has much the same psychological effect as getting drunk. Automobile temperance might not be a bad plan. Buffalo Express. A bill In the German relchstag pro vides that automobllists must pay life annuities to those dependent on per sons killed by their motor cars or to persons permanently injured by such accidents. It sounds like an extreme measure. But Is It? New York World. Legislation respecting the automobile Is new and experimental, but brief ex perlment has demonstrated the necessi ty of broader public safety legislation. legislation that will cover all possible conditions, legislation that will protect the prudent automoblllst and punish the reckless and negligent.

He puts in all his work before he gets the job and forgets to keep up appearances after he has it Atchison Globe. We hare no word to say against pol itics. Only it need not absorb us com pletely.
