What say you, my lord of York ‘2" York was willing: thought it would be just the thing. from the other place; as-Brandoa' from. Louis, and that tells it all. Hefiry turned to Wolsey, “Have you ever heard anything equal to it, my lord bishop '3” -v-â€" â€"â€" My lord bishop. of course never had, nothing that even approached it. “What are we to do about it?” con- tinned Henry, still addressing Wolsey. The bishop assumed a thoughtful expression, as if to appear deliberate in so greata matter, and said, “I see but one thing that can be done.” And then he, threw in a few soft, 0in words upon the troubled waters that made Mary wish she had never called him “thou butcher s cur,” and Henry after a pause askedz‘ W here is Brandon? He is, a good fellow, after all, and what we can’t help we must endure. He’ll find punishment enough in you. Tell him to come homeâ€"I suppose you have him hid around some placeâ€"and we’ll try to do something for him.” “What will you do for him, brother?” said Mary, not wanting to give the king’s friendly impulse time to weak- “Oh, don’t bother about that now.” But she held him fast by the hand and .would not let go. “Well, what do you want? " ..t with it. I suppose I might as well give it up easily; you will have it sooner or later, Out with it and be done.” “So be it, then,” said Henry. “Now I am going out to hunt. and will not listen to another word. You will coax me out of my kingdom for that fellow yet.” He was about to leave the room ,When he turned to Mary, saying: “By the way, sister, can you have Brandon here by Sunday next? I am to have a joust," So after all, Mary, though a queen, came portionless to Brandon. He got the title, but never received the estates of Suffolk. All he received with her was the money I carried to him from France. Nevertheless, Brandon thought himself the richest man in all the earth, and surely he was one of the happiest. Such a woman as Mary is dangerous, except in a state of com- plete subjection, but she was bound hand and foot in the silken meshes of her own weaving, and her power for blissmaking was almost infinite. -. Mary thought she could, and the great event was accomplished. One false word, one false syllable, one false tone, would have spoiled it all had not Maryâ€"but I fear you are weary with hearing so much of Mary. And now it was, as all who read may know, that this fair, sweet, willful Mary dropped out of history, a sure token that her heart was her husband’s throne, her soul his empire, her every wish his subject, and her will, so mas- terful with others, the meek and lowly servant of her strong but gentle lord and master, Charles Brandon, duke of Suflolk. Note by the Editor.-Sir Edwin Casko- den’s history differs in some minor details from other authorities of the time. Hall’s chronicle says Sir \Villiam Brandon, fa- ther of Charles, had the honor of being killed by the hand of Richard III. him- self at Bosworth Field, and the points wherein his account of Charles Brandon’s life differs from that of Sir Edwin may be gathered from the index to the 1548 edition of that work, which is as follows: Charles Brandon. Esquire, is made knight, created Viscount Lysle, made duke of Suffolke, goeth to Paris to the Iustes. doeth valiantly there. returneth into England. he is sent into Fraunce to fetch home the French quene into Eng- land. He maryeth her, and so on until he dyeth and is buryed at \Vyndesore. wI\I<â€">â€"_m"ehitiion is rhade in ahy of the chron- icles of the office of master of dance. In all other essential respects Sir Edwin is corroborated by his contemporaries. Curious Habit In a. Dog. 1 A certain Pomeranian has a most ex» traordinary habit at mealtimes which appears Worth recording. This behav- ior is the prelude to only one kind of foodâ€"i: e., bread and milk. It consists in first wiping the nose smartly to and fro on the flannel on which the dog lies, and this is repeated between each mouthful. To such an extent is this eccentricity carried that she refuses this kind of food altogether if there is no flannel to wipe her nose on. The curious part of the whole episode is that there is none of this wiping with bread soppcd in gravy. It seems to be suggested by some irritation peculiar to warm milkâ€"London Times.

The two young men had induced the deacon to take his first Turkish bath. They had got him properly attired, or, rather, unattired; and had him con- ducted into the hot room. The deacon didn’t enjoy it, but he i was game. He rolled around nervous- ly on his cot, and every time he moved he seemed to strike a hotter spot. But 5 he stood it like a man until the pcrspi- f ration made rivulets innumerable in 3 running off him. Then he lifted him- self up on his elbow and said plain- tively: “Let’s get out of this.” But the young men only laughed and told him to keep quiet; that it was just getting comfortable. When he finally absolutely refused to stand it any longer they led him into the steam room and sat down to gossip and enjoy his discomfiture as he felt himself Slowly boiling away. And the deacon seemed inclined to lose his temper. It was aggravating tc be so extremely uncomfortable when they apparently were enjoying them- selves and would oflfer him no means of escape that would, to say the least. be dignified. _ Butv there was an end of it. He got ' “05‘ out, and as he looked “more in sorrow 1 0‘3 11 than in anger” from one to the other of W be: them one asked: vent “W’ ell. deacon.

Take an ordinary copper cent p1ece,. stamp it with a private mark, put it into circulation, and what are the chances that you will ever see it again? There is one man who says that he tried the trick and succeeded at it. He is a business man who refuses to allow his name to be used ‘in print about the story, but he tells the tale to many‘of his friends and he vouches for its In 189-1, he says. he found a cent piece.- dated 1893. in the restaurant of the Lafayette hotel. He pocketed it for ICAL‘_ guy ""‘-‘-d '__V _ luck and as a memento of a jolly little dinner scratched his initials on it just over the feathered head, while on the cheek he added those of the hotel. Un- til 1896 he treasured the coin, then drew it out of his pocket with a hand- ful of other change and before he real- ized it the cent piece had gone the mys- terious way of all money. A year ago he chanced, being of a curious turn~of mind, to fall_ into con- versation one evening with a profes- sional beggar at Broad and Chestnut streets. He uphraided the man for get- ting so mueh money for nothing. “Oh.” said the beggar, “I don’t get so much. That's all I’ve got in the last hour." And he held up a cent piece. XI.- {1.1“ 11D “VI“ “1; u v“..- At that moment the electric light fell upon the coin. and the business man, to his amazement. caught sight of the let- ters "H. L.” on the cheek of the face. He took the coin and examined it more closely. Sure enough, there were his own initials just above the feathers where he had placed them a half dozen years before. I! .-t once his prejudice against begging finished. “I'll give you a dollar for that coin!” he cried. The beggar grew wary at this eager- ness and demanded $33. Needless to say, he got it and also of course the cent piece has never since left the business man’s adorns. Singers’ High Salaries. Heinrich Conried, who has had so much difficulty in arranging the sala- ries of his artists that he declares their engagement to be the most difficult part of the work of putting on grand opera, has an explanation for the ori- gin of the exorbitant prices demanded by foreign singers when America is mentioned to them. A number of years ago he was in Europe engaging artists for his comic opera company. He offer- ed a certain singer $200 a week to come with him to America. The singer had been used to getting about a third of that sum and was on the point of ac- cepting when he was approached by Anton Seidl and asked his price. He at once demanded $300 and finally com- promised on $250. W'hen he came to read the contract he found that. after the American fashion. he had been signed for $250 a performance and not for that amount per week. Fearing that Mr. Seidl might change his mind and try to break the contract, he took the first boat for New York and was on the ground two months before the opening of the season. - Girls In Turkey. In a recent book on his native coun- try an intelligent Turk writes: “For;- mcrly girls in Turkey were not allowed to learn the mystery of caligraphy. We have had some excellent poctesses in days gone by. but none of them could write; they dictated their inspira- tions. The common explanation given of this traditional prohibitionâ€"for it is a custom rather than a ruleâ€"was that if girls once learned writing they might have indulged in talismanic pas- times and eventually have become witches. As a matter of fact, the real reason was quite diflerent. There was a fear, perhâ€"aps not ill founded, that, having once learned to write, they might hasten to make use of the ac-‘: complishment by composing love let- tels to 301mg men w ith whom they; could not otherwise communicate, for: the strict seclusion of females cuts off all intercourse between young people’ of opposite sexes almost as soon as they have ceased to be infants.’ The Unconquered Boers. A party of unconquered Boers has just arrived in Batavia, traveling to a Dutch colony under the auspices of a Boer relief fund committee. The gov- ernment has assigned an abandoned estate for them to settle upon as small cultivators. These Boers will be utilized for ex- perimental purposes. There is much distress among the lower class of Eu- ropeans and Eurasians in Java. Many of them seek grants of land on easy terms, on which they could start cul- tivation in a small way. As most of them have no experience in farming, the government hesitates to put them grvsizifevveipected to show how to cutti- vate the- land and make money out or it. â€"â€"â€"- a- . on the {and from fear of failure.

As is well known. political prisoners in Russia and Siberia are treated with a rigor and cruelty unknown in any" European country except Turkey. The mental sufferings undergone by prison- ers Who are sentenced to the latter form of punishment are so terrible that they not infrequently go mad or lay violent hands on themselves. One of the most terrible cases of this kind re- cently occurred in the prison fortress of Tomsk, in Siberia. where. according to the St. Petersburg Life. one of the political prisoners, finding existence in- tolerable. killed himself by drenching his clothes with petroleum and then setting himself on fire before the ward- ers could come talliflwm A MARKED CENT. watch chain. whinh it now WESTERN a FAIR, LONDON FURNITURE An exhibition of merit.
