Membership Is .radically confined to the people whom the King regards with favor, or who are In the more exclusive ct.iirt ?rt. Should liU Majesty by liny chance visit any of the clubs to which lie belongs he Is by his own request, treated like any other member, bat It need hardly be said that no one would ever dream of Rppronching him unices special permission were given for the purpose, nnd the King always gpeakl lir pt to any one with whom he de sires to converse. One of the most expensive clubs Is the Naval and Military, founded In 1S2. It is frequently spoken of Ft t!io "In and Out" Club, because the two words placed over the f-:!evays.

Mf.. tin painting of an o!d-tlme sea tnilmn of that town, who long years si;o was lost wlt.i all on board his ship In tho China seas. The ship sailed from the home port with every pros pert of a successful voyage, but she never returned to the home land. Years went by nnd she was given up ns lost; Her name was taken from the shipping list, nnd no news came hack to the waiting oneg at home. Ijong afterwards a passing vessel picked up off the African const the portrait of an American sea captain such ns the Chinese artists paint, and on the bnck of the picture was the captain's name and that of the port from which ho sailed. The painting was forwarded to the little American town, and it wns found to be a picture of the Scarboro sea cap tain, master of tho lost vessel that had left the harbor so many years ago. Kennebec Journal. The Jokes of the Hen. The rays and skates are the Jokes of the sea. Their bodies are as flat as the pancakes made by the man In white on a gridddle In the window of a "beef-and" restaurant. Thfir eyes look upward and they have tails as slender and tapering as a whip of a ringmaster of a circus. In the United States the most common rays are called "skates." The whlp-talled rays, because of SPOTTED STING-HAY. their long, slender tails with their erectile spines at the end, capable of Inflicting severe and dangerous wounds, are frequently called sting rays. The common stlng-ray feeds on oysters, clams and other valuable mollusks and In the Atlantic waters Is known as the "clam-cracker." Of the skates, tho commonest as well as the smalleit spcclos ou the Atlantic coast Is known as the tobacco-box; the largest Is aptly called the barn-door. On the Western coast of the United States is found the big skate, which reaches a length or six feet, two feet larger than Its Eastern relatives. f:,V:.- COMMON SKATE.
