Whether it be the size to carry in a small purse or an extensive wall decoration depends upon the new owner's taste and mode of life. The traveler will like something taking up no room. One just setting up housekeeping may appreciate a large calendar that will figure as "a picture on the wall." Unless chosen with great discretion these large picture calendars are not as likely to please people who already have an oversupply of ornament, and are, mayhap, overparticular. Besides a large picture calendar is very unsatisfactory unless it harmonizes with the other pictures and furnishings. j8 4 GAVE DINNER PARTY. Mr. and Mrs. A.

Some Peculiar Ones That May Be Seen In England. The English village is very dear to the hearts of poets and painters, and thousands of them are certainly charming. A few. however, are mone amusing than anything else as. for instance, one which consists entirely of old railway carriages, even the chapel being composed of four horse trucks. Another village, with a population of 1,100 and taxed at the valuation of $8,000. has neither school, church nor other public building, the only thing of the sort being a letter box on a pillar. Villages with but a single inhabitant are not unknown, one of them being Skiddaw, in Cumberland. The single villager complains bitterly because he cannot vote, there being no overseer to prepare a voters' list and no church or other public building on which to publish one, as the law requires. The lonely rate payer in a Northumber- ' land Tillage has declined to contribute money to maintain the roads, remarking that the one he has is quite good ; enough for its use. In the isle of Ely is a little parish with about a dozen inhabitants that has no rates, as there are no roads or public institutions of any kind and consequently no expenses. Kempton. near Bradford, can probably lay successful claim to the distinction of being the longest village in the world, as it straggles along the road for a distance of seven miles. Sometimes a village will entirely disappear, having been built either on the edge of the crumbling cliffs that make part of the coast line or over an ancient mine. One of the latter class is in Shropshire, and each year one or more of the cottages tumbles as the earth sinks beneath it. Harper's Weekly. His Little Scheme.

V and Catherine of France lUepj right, bj u. Autkar.) ' A reckless, daredevil boy chanced to meet and to fall in love with a halfstarved, ill-dressed girl about five hundred years ago. Because the boy happened to be a prince and the girl a princess that same love affair led to a series of terrible wars and to the conquering and final losing of a great nation. The boy was "Mad Prince Hal," son of King Henry IV. of England. The girl was Princess Catherine, daughter of insane King Charles of J'rance. Unlike most royal martriages, theirs was a genuin love match. Nor did "the course of true love" run smooth. "Mad Prince Hal's" wild pranks had ted the English to tremble for their .kingdom's welfare in the event of his coming to the throne. Yet when, in 1413, he succeeded his father as king, he sobered down as by magic and proved himself a wise, able ruler. Almost his first act after becoming King ,Henry V. was to ask the hand of Princess Catherine in marriage. He had seen but little of the princess; yet he had learned to love her, and he sent for her at once to share his crown. But by his counsellors' advice he also asked that he receive (as her dowery) The Coat of One Love Affair. the provinces in France that had in bygone years been captured by England and that were now French territory once more. The French government angrily refused to grant these terms. Not at all discouraged, Henry resolved to win the princess and the provinces as well. So, declaring he !had a hereditary right to the French throne, he declared war on France, and in 1415 invaded that country. He could not have chosen a better "time for his attack. The king of France was insane (playing cards are said to have been invented to amuse this craiy monarch), and the kingdom rwas rent by two warring factions. Princess Catherine had been sadly neglected and had had a wretched girlhood. Her father being insane, the jcare of the girl ahd been left tp her mother, an idle, wicked woman, who ;did not give Catherine enough food nor clothing. Ragged, hungry, illtreated, the poor child was an object of pity until her father, in a lucid interval, removed her from her mother's charge and sent her to a convent to' be educated. It was largely on account of this 19-year-old girl that France, in 1415, was Invaded by an English army. Henry swept all before him. The French opposed him at Agincourt and are said to have outnumbered his army by ten ;to one. Yet he won a great victory, crushing the national pride of France. lA second invasion ended even more (triumphantly. The French, utterly overwhelmed, begged for peace. The terms Henry granted were unheard of 4n their exorbitance. First and foremost he demanded the hand of Catherine. Then he compelled his beaten ifoes to agree that he should succeed crazy King Charles at the latter's death as ruler of France. In the meantime he was to govern the realm :as regent. ; He married Catherine and took her iback to England with him in triumph. Her fatherland's fall was the price of tier hand. And her husband had brought about that fall. She and Htary were married, and early in 1421 she was crowned queen of England. The next December the couple's A Q'jeen's onIy son known Second Romance. history 83 Henry VI.) was born. Few children have started life with such prospects. For he was heir to the combined thrones of France and England. A few months later Henry V. and Catherine went again to France. There, when only 35 years old, Henry died. Catherine brought her little son back to England. There, on crazy King Charles' death, the boy was crowned, while still in his cradle, king of England and of France. But he lacked his father's genius and inherited some of his grandfather's, old King Charles', insanity. As a result, he was destined to lose both kingdoms and to die in prison. Catherine, though she had apparently returned her husband's adoring love, was quickly consoled for his death. She secretly married a Welshman, Owen Tudor. The anger of the court over this marriage caused her to pine away and die at the age of 36. She and Owen Tudor had two sons. The elder of these (the earl of Richmond) became later the father of Henry VII., who founded the Tudor line of kings in England. Dr. Hale Abolished the Calendar. I doubt if he ever became quite conscious that he was an old man. What Lowell wrote of Emerson was emphatically true of Edward Everett Hale: "He has that privilege of soul which abolishes the calendar and presents him to us always the unwasted contemporary of hig own prime." In 1906. when he was over 84 years old, I said to him: "How is your eyesight?" "Good." he replied; "I read as often without my glasses as with them." William M. McElroy in Woman's Home Companion. "Dr. Pckeit Is devoted to science, isn't he?" "Devoted? So much so, that he even married a chemical blonde." rt is not usual for a ship on the high seas to elect to cast anchor on the deck of a passing steamer, but that is what a four masted schooner did once in the Atlantic. The two vessels grazed In the fog. and the "catted" port anchor of the schooner caught in the steamer's deck "by a fluke." It fastened to an engineer's stateroom in such a manner as to bar his exit, but fortunately the chain parted just as the room, was being ripped into fragments. The schooner followed the steamer to its destination to recover her anchor.

And in Doing So He Makes a Statement That His tence Is Most Brutal One Ever Pronounced.

New York, Jan. C Charles W. Morse, who three years ago was called the ice king, who controlled a chain of banks with deposits reaching nearly $100,000,000, whose private fortune was estimated at $22,000,000 and who was master of a fleet of between 80 and 90 ocean-going ships, Sunday left the Tombs between three United States marshals on his way to Atlanta to serve a prison term of 15 years. Except his wife and his two sons, not a single friend was at the city prison to bid him good-bye. No heroics, no display of sentiment marked his quiet departure. A moment before leaving he was all outward appearances the same self-contained man whose behavior through two years of disaster and imprisonment has been the amazement of his enemies no less than his friends. Just before the train drew out his two boys, whom he had asked not to accompany him that far, went into his stateroom for a last hand grasp. Tears welled to his eyes then and he could not speak. He shook hands with the young men in silence and then made a sign for them to go away. Mrs. Morse said good-bye to her husband in view of half a dozen keepers in the corridor on the ground floor. A dozen "trusties" with mops were cleaning the cement floor at the time. As Mrs. Morse kissed her husband and turned away the men brought their mop handles to parade rest and then started beating time on the floor in token of their appreciation of a man they considered "game." The demonstration was stopped instantly by Warden Flynn. Morse's statement, given to reporters before he left, is bitter and dramatic. "I am going to Atlanta to begin penal servitude under the most brutal sentence ever pronounced against a citizen in a civilized country," is his opening sentence. "I have hoped," the statement continues, "with that hope that comes with a consciousness of my innocence, that I will not have to close out forever the light and liberty of this world under such an inhuman sen-tence-"I had felt that the fact that I had paid a fine of $7,000,000 and served a year in prison would satisfy the cry for a victim, and I have steadily believed that the courts would be compelled to give me a new trial. "When I learned that the private detectives of the prosecution were the keepers of the jury, that the jury drank like men npon a jaunt or a holiday rather than citizens engaged in a serious service, and that as a result two of them were rendered un

Data Regarding News Print

Paper Sent to the Attorney-General. PRESIDENT RIDDER ACTS HEAD OF AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS' ASSOCIATION SHOWS SOME GOOD EVIDENCE TO BACK CONTENTION. Now York. Jan. S. Herman Ridder, President of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, invited the attention rf Attorney-General Wickersham on December 2 to statements made at a banquet of paper dealers in New York in which it was claimed by a representative of the Interna tional Paper Company that the President of the American Paper and Pulp Association. A. C. Hastings, was ad vising paper mills what paper prices should be. The Attorney-General referred the matter to United States Attorney Wise, of New York, who asked for specifications. As a result of that request, John Norrls, Chairman of the Committee on Paper, of the Publish ers' Association, has submitted detailed data purporting to cover the following matters: List of the Data. 1. Restriction of 4S news print paper mills in use of news print paper, which restrictions make impossible either an open market or public quotations of paper prices. 2. Action of news print paper mills east of the Rocky Mountains In refusing to sell f. o. b. mill for spot cash or In quoting excessive price because presumably It would Interfere with a "gentlemen-! agreement," 3. Refusal of many news print paper mills to sell other than thirty-twe-pound paper. 4. Restrictions on contracts by many mills to one-year periods and inclusion of wrappers on rolls In actual gross weight to be paid for. 5.

"Trade customs" adopted by paper makers and used by them as basis tor concerted action in regulating prices. 7. Meetings of paper makers ta discuss prices. 8. Reported agreement upon news print paper price by two large paper making concc---s. 9.
