She dreaded. lest their speech t betray them. Pe- ter was betrayed to the encmies or Jesus by his Galilean tones. Words betray not only nationality, but also give an indication to character. In the former case it is by the manner of speaking; in the latter it is by the substance of thought. Care should be exercised as to' what words are allowed to come out of the mouth, According to them men are coarse or refined, shallow or thought. ful, unleirned or cultured. Words are the winged messengers of the mind. Once let loose they cannot be recalled, but Journey on doing good or evil, blessing or baning. Words are fossils contaming the his. toty, sovial and moral, of past ages. They: are: seeds from which action grows. They are flowess which spread perfume abroad. They may be daggers that stab the heart, or upas trees that poison all who come under their in- fluence. Too great care cannot be taken as to how words are placed. The tremendous power of words is well expressed by Byron: "But words are things, drop of ink, Falling, like dew, produces That which makes thousands, per- haps millions, think." A good deed or an. evil deed af- feéts only those immediately concern- ed, but when the story of it is - told it may affect the whole world. Shakespeare has won more battles than did Henry V. His written words have stimulated the spirits and strengthened the arms of thousands of English soliers." How great is the power of words! A word may be a torch to set men's hearts on fire, Mare Antony's words inflamed the Roman mob) against the murderers of Caedar. Lincoln's words at Gettysburg, by firing the spirit of the pation with true patriotism, did as much to bring the Civil War to a successful conclusion as did Grant's sword at Richmond. The words of Adams, of Franklin, of Payne, and of Alexander Hamilton made the Ameri- and a small upon a thought, can War of Independence. The words ofl Rosseau, Voltaire and the Encyclo- pedists roused France to bloody revo- lution. A spark carelessly dropped may set a city on fire, 50 a word or phrase may make a war.

The for sett) directing and rt of the select committee the king's civil list has again fixed the total of the British sovereign's. income at £470,000 ($2, 350,000), the sum paid yearly to King Edward.

He receives ' than half the sum paid to the Ger- man y £310,000 less than the income of the Austrian emperor, and considerably less than the king of the comparatively poor kingdom od Italy. The royal income is divided into six sections. During the last reign the division was as follows : ' Privy Purge wu. «wo si cnn Expenses .

They are a hight which says that the harbor of sucvess can be safely gained by application to the work in, hand. The spiritual world is studded with word-beacons that point the way in storm and darkness, Words sometimes are wreckers' lights luring goodly vessels on to rocks and shoals; many a life has had a vicious bent en to it through impure literature, ords are a salety-valve. "Give sorrow words: the grief does not speak Whispers the o'er-fraught heart, ~~ bids it break." There ws relief in expression. To re- late obe's sorrows to another human being often brings surccase from sor- row. It is true that, "Sorrow e¢bbs, being blown with wind of werds." . Words are a sword. Evil is in the land. The pulpit, the platform and the press have in their hands a two- edged sword with which to drive it out. Slavery was abolished in the ci- vilized woeld by means of words that roused to action. Intemperance is be- ing driven rapidly by the same force from its strongholds. Virtue and vice exist in a nation in proportion as the words of the inhabitants are clean or unclean. When the monster vice is a- broad it requires the angel with the flaming swords of words that stir men's blood to slay it. Words are a balm. The soul is suf- fering; how soothing is a wo sympathy. In the heat of the day at the height of the struggle a man is smitten down. Left to himsell he 'de spairs. His thoughts are gloomy and he is incapable of action. The true friend comes along; he places his words well. The despairer is strength ened and under their influence can once more begin the battle of life. There is balm in Gilead so long as the friend with the sympathetic word is near at hand to be a physician to the soul. The advice, "Take hped, be wary how vou place your words," is excel- lent if taken in the very broadest sense, Men are judged by their words. They do evil or good by their words, By their words they strength- en, or cast down, Words should be placed with care and not thought- lessly uttered. Scott truly wrote: "And many a word, al random spok- en, . May soothe, or wound, a heart that's broken." Let every word be consciously aim- ed at a mark, or so cultivate the spi rit that even random words which em- anate from it will have power to soothe and strengthen. that and - The works department pays for the maintenance of Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, and any private resi: dences which the sovercign may own. 1 hat ipdefinite name of "Expenses" covers the necessarily en ormous household bills of the Court in London and elsewhere. The house keeping of King George and Queen Mary at Marlborough Hoyse was: al- ways careful, thorough, and economi- cal. It is not generally realized that the sovereign whose duty it is to travel up and down the country laying foun- dation-stones and opening town halls, pays the fall prices for the railway travelling of himself and his suite. He has also to meet the expense of enter- taining foreign royal visifors as well as to pay for those Sontinental tours 'which have durmg the last few yéars been imstriimental in changing the whole aspect of international -- affairs and vastly strengthening the position of this country.

He took the greatest interest in the cultivation of all sorts of trees and plants, and had agents in various parts of the world to secure the best and most handsome shrubbery possible, with which to adorn the royal gardens. One day a famous scientist made the king a pre sent of a magnificent orange Lee in full bloom. The orange was at that time unknown ig the region of which we are speaking, and the king was delighted. He had the trée plapted in the palace gardens, 'anli saw that it was carefully guarded. A certain am- bassador from the wesi saw this: tree and offered the king a large sum for a cutting of it. The king, however, refused, for he prized the tree as a rarity, and did not wish it to be come plentiful. Now, the chief gardener had a beau- tiful daughter who atly admired the tree, and who A, re come and it and dream of the man Her father would not let allant youth, because he was poor. It happened that the gardener accidentally broke off a piece of the blossom, and the girl, stooping, picked up the spray and twined it carefully in her hair. Later as she wandered in the garden, whom should she meel but the ambassador. He was quick to notice the spray in her hair, and offered lux a vast trea sure of gold in * exchange for it. She sold it to him dnd at' once bestowed the money on her lover, thus sweeping away the only = obstacle that came between them. They were married without delay, and, we presume, lived happily ever afterwards. On her weddidy morn the gardener's daughter secreily --bbtained another spray of the tree and wore it in her hair, 'hoping that the blossom would bring her good fortune in the future as it had in the past. Thus she set sn example that has ever since indue- od brides to wear a crown of orange blossoms in honor of H.M.

Cremation has been practised by most of the nations of the earth from the earliest ages, and, although in pa- gan countries it may have taken the no doubt that its adoption by the an- cients was for the most part prompt- form of fire worshiping, there can be ed by other than religious reasons. Greeks ascribe its introduction to Her cules, who, having sworn to transmit the body of Argus to his father, thought this the most convenient way' of fulfilling his. promise. According to Homer, the burning of the dead was a common practice among the Greeks long before the Trojan wat, but the carliest record of it is among the Scythians, who inhabited the vast re gion known under the name of Tar tary. Slender accounts handed down concerning the manners of some of the ancient natives of Hindustan also al Jude to the custom. The idea of purifica- tion by five was in all ages. universal.

Some believ- | ed that the body was unclean witer the | departure of the soul, and it was | therefore deemed necessary that it | should be purified by fire.

The Athenians invariably after a battle burned the slain. With a Grain of Sait, The earliest record of the saying "with a zrain of salt" dates back to the year 63 B.C.; when the great Pompey enteicd the palate of Mithridates and discovered amony his private papers the description of an antidote against poisons of all sorts, which was com- of pounded herbs. These, ac- cording; to the recipe, were to be taken with a grain of salt. Whether this was meant seriously or as a warninz sarcasm is not known, but th-heeforth it boeame the custom to say that | doubtful preparations should be taken | with a grain of salt. From this the | meaning got transferred to sayings of doubtful truth, 'Attic salt" was a Greek synonym for wit or penetration, and the Latin word "sal" had some- what of the same meaning. It is ths easy to see how the saying "cum grano salis" could have come to mean the mecessity of accepting doubtful or Suspicious statements 'with a grain of salt."
