To Got Into Soma of Them One Hat to
LIm a Stepladdar.
Tbo European bed always strikes the
uninitiated American tni relet aa u
huge joke. In Fnuice they commence
to Impress tilrn with their height and
narrowness, and he look* dubiously
at the enormous Turkey red cotton
"couvre pled" ot eiderdown, which
?eetus something like a mountain, and
he wonders how be I* ever going to
bear all thnt extra weight on lit* per
son. Hut when he bun slipped be
tween the sheets and the grateful
warmth communicates itself to his cold
bones? If It Is winter tbey arc sure to
be like icicles? he discovers Unit it Is
deceptively light and dellclounly com
Cortabie.
In Switzerland the beds attain a
little more height, but It Is In Gcr
many that they become of such an
altitude as to necessitate a pair of
steps to* mount them One tourist,
finding thnt one leg of the steplndder
was broken, solved his dlflk-ulty by
golug to the extreme eud of the room,
taking a running start and lauding
with a flying leap In the midst of the
Turkey rod eiderdown. He crawled In
under the crocheted counterpane and
was soon fast asleep. Some time in
the night he became sleepily aware of
a consuming thirst and started to get
out of bed for a drink. A startled
shriek, followed by some swear words
that even the thick headed German
watchman understood, penetrated to
the remotest chamber in the Inn.
"I was half awake," he explained
afterward, "and had been drenmlng of
standing on Table rock. In the Yosem
Ite. I sorted to get out of bed- and
began to fall. Naturally I supposed I
was plunging to the bottom of that
precipice, nnd I'll leavo It to you if any
one wouldn't have let out a yell when
he thought he was going to be dashed
to death."
Sometimes In European hotels the
tourist Is taken solemnly to one side
and told that by paying a few fraucs
or lire more he can have the royal
bedchamber A certain hotel In Sor
rento. where a dozen or more royal
beads have lain In one season. Is even
more generous, for If the rooms are
empty they make no extra charge.
And the traveler lores to recount when
he Is back on his native bentb how bis
cheek pressed the same pillow that
had been used by the little queen of
Holland or the king o* Saxony.? New

ForThree Long Years. Suffered Great
Deal. Cuticura Soap and Ointment
Brought Marvelous Results. In
Few Weeks Cured Completely,
?
"I xai troubled with acne for three Ion*
years. My face was the only part affected.
! but It caused (treat disfigurement, also
t (tillering and k*n of sleep.
At first there appeared red,
hard pimples which later
contained white matter. I
suffered a great deal caused
by the Itching I was In a
state of perplexity when
walking the streets or any
where before the public.
"I used pills and other
remedies but they failed com
pletely. I thought of (tiring
I up when nothing would help, but ?omethiog
i told me to try the Cuticura Soap anil Oint
j ment. t sent for a Cuticura Booklet which I
| read carefully. Then I bought some Cuticura
Soap and ointment and by following tbo
1 directions I was relieved In a few days. I
i used Cuticura Soap for washing my face,
1 and applied the Cuticura Ointment morning
and evening. This treatment brought mar
velous results so I continued with it for a
few weeks and was cured completely. I can
truthfully m y that the Cuticura Remedies
are not only all, but more than they claim
to be." (Signed) G. Haumel, 1015 W. 20th
Place, Chicago, III., May 28. 1911.
For more than a generation Cuticura Rem
edies have afforded the most economical
treatment for affections of the skin and scalp.
A cake of Cuticura Soap (25c.) and a box of
Cuticura Ointment (50c.) are often sufficient.
Although sold throughout the world, a liberal
sample of each, with 32-p. book on the skin,
will be sent free, on application to Potter

THE KING CAN 00 NO WRONG. I
Nsithsr Can H? Kw?r D<? Acttrdinf U
British Law.
It to a curious |>uliit of Hi It Mi taw
that the king never dies. of. to pot It
In another wiiy. It would he useless for
any barrister lo argue tb.it tbe ruler's j
predecessors hare really died. since the
utmost the law wilt admit to that there
may be a "demise of the crown." mean
lng, of course, simply that there baa
been a transfer of the ryyal authority
from one person to n not her
-It to a maxim thai "the king can do
no wrong," and under the law be
would not be held personally responsi
ble for any crime or "tort*" thai he
chose to commit at any time. At any
rate, we are assured by high constltn
Monti 1 authorities that the law sbonld
actually and literally be so construed
and that the statutes hold that any In
jury bto majesty niUrbt Inflict upon a
subject must be oecr11>ed to tbe king's
advisers. Oue IUIiir seems to be cer
tain, and that to that bto majesty can 1
under no cir- nmMnnees whnt*?ever be
arrested. Nor. moreover. rttHM his
Roods be distrained or taken In eieru

A quaint feature of British law I.
that in theory Hie king Is present at
tbe law court at every sitting, though
he might In inilnt of fact iictniilly t*"r>
the continent or elsewhere It follows,
therefore, that It to Imiioxslble to non
suit him as plaintiff should he not put
In an appearance wbeh his case 'a
called, since the law specifically state*
that the king to there. In a similar
sense tbe king is always constructively
present In parliament, though be be
In fact thousands of ml!** from bis
shores.
His majesty to under tbe Isw the
nominal guardian of all infants. Idiots
and lunatics, and to blm to granted
the sole right to print tbe Bible, tbe
Book of Common Prnyer and all acta

that should he so desire tbe king could
forbid tbe printing of any or all of
them anywhere within bis dominions.

MINED THE ROAD.
Tha Voluntear* Wip*d Out tha F?, but
It Waa a Sad Story.
"1 can tell yuu the saddest thing thnt
happened during tbe whole war," aald
an old negro to a group of listeners.
Tbe story tvas this One night !t was
reported that the town was In peril of
attack from the enemy, and the fight
ing forces were quickly mustered One
of tbe volunteers conceited tbe Idea of
mining tbe rond and touching the fuse
In time to annihilate the fo? There
was plenty of powder, and tbe scheme
was adopted. Tbe re?t of tbe defend
ers stood some on one side of tbe road,
some on the other, ready to discharge
their rifles Into what might be left of
the assailants.
Tbe day passed without Incident, but
as the night wore on tbe strain of the
situation began to tell on tbe nerves
of the defenders. Presently, bowerer,
there was tbe sound of boofa on the
highway, approaching rapidly. Such
was the state of mind of the defenders
that the sounds appeared to Indicate
the coming of a mighty cavalry fori o.
It was a terrifying moment A vivid
flnsb lighting up the seen# as the first
horseman reached tbe spot told that
the mine had been exploded and It had
dooe Its work There was not a vestig*
of an army to be seen when tbe smoke
cleared away excepting tha scatterwl j
fragments of a big black mule.
The party laughed as the old man
concluded his tale. "That's a good
enough story." snld one of them, "bot
what was there so sad about It?"
"It was my mule, sahr was the old
negro's pathetic reply.
A Battla of Language*.
Three or four languages strove for
mastery In ancient Gaul, which la now
France. German was spoken by the
12.000 Frank Invaders. Popular r?atln
was spoken by 0.000.000 Ualto-Romans.
Mtemry I>at1n was tbe language of the
church and or literature. Ixrw Latin
was afterward the language of the ad
ministration German wai tbe first to
succumb In four centuries It cea?ed
to be understood by the soldiers, and
In seventy years more It had become
an object of ridicule. Bot It survives
In more than 1100 words, expressing the
things of government law and war,
and thua forma no Insignificant part
of the French language.

the purpose of Identlflcatlon In case of i
