The sudden deatji in
Sir Clifton Robinson,
king,” was being discussed
York club. j
‘‘Sir Clifton Robinson,” said a New
York man, “built miles and miles of
street railways in this country. He
liked this country. He especially
liked our young men.
"I once heard him say that our
young men were not mercenary—that (
it was practically unknown for an
American young man to marry for
money. But a young forelgnei, he de-,
dared, would marry his grandmother
If there was a hundred a year In it.,
“A Chicago woman on a liner, he.
said, once remarked:
“ ‘Yes, Mabel was engaged to be.
married to a handsome young count j
she met in Budapest last summer; j
but there was a cruel misunderstand-,
Ing.’
“ ‘Indeed, how was that?’ asked an
other woman.
“ ‘The count,’ was the reply, ‘un-'
derstood her father was a multimil
lionaire.’ ”

Two Kinds of Riches.
Dollar chasing by day; bridge whist,
by night; home a place for sleeping
only, is not success. Live today. Make
It successful. Make It a day of prog
ress, kindness and work. A lot of Buch
todays in your old age will be pleas-,
ant to look back upon.
If your todays are dollar chasing
and character killing, looking back
ward In the old age days will be a I
cheerless picture. “Yes,” says Bill
Success, “you can be rich—there are;
two kinds of riches, dollars and happl- j
ness.” !
There are two doors, Dollars at the
left and Happiness at the right, and,
the ticket taker is at the entrance and
his name is "Compensation.” Go in
either door, but there are no rain
checks given or money back. You must
choose which door you will take.
There’s an inner door to the Dollar
entrance marked Failure. There s an
inner door to the Happiness entrahce
marked Success. You may go in either
entrance, but you must pay the prlca

A little known story of the Jewish
race in Portugal is told of King Jo
seph I. of that country. On one oc
casion the king ordered that all Port-j
uguese who were in any way allied to
or descended from the Hebrew race
should wear yellow hats. The old
_i_ Dnmkel fhnn mlnUtor In
rum 4u>o --»-—
chief, shortly afterward appeared at
court with three yellow hats under his
arm. The king smiling, asked him:
“What are you doing with these?”
The mar*is replied: “I have them
In obedience to your majesty’s com
mand, for I really do not know a singlt
Portuguese of note who has not Jew
ish blood In his veins.”
“But,” Insisted the king, "why three
hats?”
“One is for myself,” answered th«
marquis, “one for the Inquisitor gen
eral by your side, and one Is, In case
your majesty should desire to be
covered.”
Smuggled Bracelet In Photograph.
Of smuggling tricks there is no end.
The Bangor (Me.) customs officials had
a new dodge sprung on them one day
recently In an attempt to get a gold
bracelet through without the payment
of duty.
Some one took a number of cabinet
photographs, but before tying them to
gether to make them appear as a bun
dle of photos he carefully hollowed
out a hole in the center and deposited
the bracelet therein. A superficial ex
amination o? the package would have
caused one to think that It was elruplj

Beating the Bachelor.
In Sicily the fir tree la unknown
as a Christmas adjunct, but the very
ludicrous custom of "beating the
bachelor” is observed by the women.
All of the unmarried men in the vil
lage are driven into the church after
mass by the outnumbering women,
and run about the sacred edifice and
beaten until they declare (often false
ly) that they will wed ere another
Christmas come around.
