MAKING A WILL If You Draw Up Your Own, Stick to tho Most Simple Terms. "If tin; people," said a lawyer, "who for whatever reason prefer to draw wills without resorting to legal advice would keep just one thing in mind a lot ol' trouble would he saved. It is nothing save insistence on simplicity. Simplicity is the main thing to make a will effective, and apparently it Is the one thing that the will makers for get about. High sounding words and half remembered law phrases come to their minds, and into the documents these verbal extravagances go. There appears to be a popular impression that, for example, to say - I give and bequeath' is a stronger way of saying 'I give.' Again, take the matter of directions. Here a desire to bo explicit frequently results In contradictions, and the longer u sentence in a will is the more likelihood there is of its be ing open to mlnlnterpretation. "No will should be drawn without at least a couple of drafts having been made of it, each one being gone over carefully with the idea of simplifying and clarifying it. Give the time to it that the importance of tho action de mands. Know what you want to do and study out the best way of ex pressing yourself. Don't put off mak ing a will. I'm superstitious enough to consider that tempting fate. And when a will is drawn remember that it lias no legal binding unless the sig nature Is v itnessod by two persons, who must themsolv< -i witness ihe doc ument in presence of Ihe testator and each other."- New York Press. A BROKEN CUP. The Way a Queen Saved an Old Serv ant From Dismissal. A charming story is told of the for mer queen regent of Holland, the moth er of Queen Wilhelmina. The old king had bought a fine service of Sevres porcelain for the use of the royal fami ly. and he gave orders that any serv ant who should break any piece of it should be punished by being instantly dismissed. One day a man who had been many years in the royal house hold confessed to the young queen that he had broken one of these Sevres cups. Queen Kmnia spoke comfort ingly to him and suggested that he should mend the cup. That, said the man, would be useless, for the king would surely notice the cracks. Nev ertheless the queen told him to mend the cup as neatly as possible and to be sure to give it to her that afternoon at tea time, when the king would be pres ent. Tea time came, and the queen, after drinking from the mended cup, suddenly pose and let it fall to the floor. It was smashed to atoms. "Think of me as one of the most awkward of your majesty's servants," sho said humbly. "I have broken one of your precious Sevres cups. You must dismiss me at once. I don't deserve to be retained In your service." The arbi trary old king was highly amused at her demure manner and considered the matter a good joke. He never knew the true story of the broken cup. Chess and War. The origin of chess is shrouded in mystery. There is little doubt, how ever, that Its birthplace was in India and that it is an offspring of a game called chaturanga, which is mentioned ill oriental literature as in use fully 200 years before the Christian era. From India chess spread into Persia and thence into Arabia, and ultimately the Arabs took it into Spain and the rest of western Etiroi e. The game was in all probability invented for the purpose of illustrating the art of war. The Arab le end upon this point is that it was devised for the instruction of a young despot by his father, a learned Brahman, to teach liini that a king notwithstanding his power was depend ent for safety upon his subjects. The Greek historians credit the invention of the game to Palainedes, who, they claim, devised it to beguile the tedium of the siege of Troy during tho Trojan war. The Slippery Pronoun. Many are tho circumlocutions which have been devised by civilized races in order to avoid the bluntness of direct address. In fact, it may be said that at the moment when a nation stand ardizes its language it begins to have trouble with its pronouns. "Thou" has of course become obso lete except In prayer, although it flour ishes colloquially In the north of Eng land. The second person plural is substituted. In parts of the south "you all" is heard, a further step to ward refined elusiveness. In France and Germany "thou" has been retained in familiar or semicon temptuous speech. In Spain and Italy, on the other hand, the third person is substituted habitually In place of it.— Harper's Weekly. Touched. Mrs. Homespun—TsJie comic papers say you fellows never work.

Wonderful Memory of an Old Tim» Missouri Lawyer. One of the most picturesque of the early lawyer;, of Missouri was Billy Campbell, who came from Virginia in ISI2O and opened an office in St Charles. He was a man of great abil lty, a classic scholar, an orator and a political writer of unusual power. I'.ut he was indolent, careless about collect ing and spending money and so lazy that physical exertion of any kind was positively painful to him. He had a most remarkable memory, as proved by the following incident: Campbell who was a Whig, represented his (lis trlet in the state senate several years. On one occasion he was lying on a bench in the senate chamber, apparent ly sleeping, when the Democratic mem bers came into hold a caucus. They at tempted to arouse him, but heap pea red so soundly asleep that they de cided to let him alone. The next day a complete report of the proceedings of the caucus, including a verbatim copy of the resolutions adopted, was pub lished in the St. Louis Republican. A row followed, and the secretary was charged with having been bribed to re port the proceedings of the caucus. After the excitement died down some what Campbell admitted that he had been awake all tho time and that he had done the reportorinl work entirely from memory. Kansas City Star. A MUFF BED. Surprise of a Man Who Thought It Had to Do With Sleep. A man who saw on a sign the words "muff beds" and imagined that a muff bed must he something to sleep in, a brother or cousin or other more or less distant relative of tho sleeping bag, such as explorers carry with them, found upon Inquiry that Ills im agination had carried him very far from the truth; that the muff bed is in fact not a bed at all, but is the trade name for the inner part of a muff, tho body of the muff—in short, the part you put your hands in. The muff bed consists of a double walled bag made in cylindrical or oth er shape, according to the style of muff, and then stuffed with down, the quality and quantity of the down de pending on the character of the muff. The making of muff beds Is a busi ness by Itself. Some of them are sold to the furriers in the simplest form, just the bed or bag stuffed with down, the furrier putting in the silk or satin lining when he puts on the fur. Oth ers are made with tho silk or satin in ner lining attached, to be ilnished up when the fur is put on. There is at least one concern in New York that makes a specialty of muff beds and turns out many thousands of them an nually.—New York Sun. Wanted a Rebate. In a rural community in one of the middle states dwelt a man who made a vow in 1&.H5 that he would wear his hair and beard uutrimmed until John C. Fremont should be elected president of the United States. He kept that vow for forty years, at the end of which lime lie had nearly a half bushel of hair i a his head and face. Then, coming to the conclusion, toward which his mind had been gradually working for a longtime, that General Fremont's death in the interval had practically absolved hi: i t'l'i ui his. vow, ho decided to have his hair cut and his beard shaved off clean. Oil his next visit to the county seat he went to a barber shop and was soon relieved of the hir sute bun! n lie had carried for four decades. "How much?"' he asked. "Have to charge you half a dollar for that job," said the barber, looking at the mass that lay 011 tho floor. "Half a dollar!"' he gasped. "Don't I get anything for the hair'/" The Actor and the Critic. One of tho near comedians who al ways affect to be entirely careless of newspaper criticism recently struck from his list of bowing acquaintances a critic noted for his candor. The player met the writer and a friend while crossing a park square and ex changed a few words of greeting and as ho passed 011 heard this conversa tion: "Who was that?" "Oh, that is L., the actor!" "He does not look much like an actor off tho stage." "Still less when he's on the stage," returned the critic. -Argonaut. On New England Tombstones.
