"Nominally, the retailer makt-. much
larger profits, but his exH'iises are
heavy. The trouble is that owing- to a

porteriiouses, sirloins and prime ribs
are too hihrh. while other cuts that in
the hands of skillful cook would be
equally food, are too low."
Not Mereiy an Ornauicut.
The prince of Wales is said to have
an extraordinary and accurate know 1
edtfc of thesiyns. colors and membership
of all tirders of merit. It is a matter in
which he x-riiiits no trilling, too. At a
recent state ball, a beautiful young;
tfirl wore a flitteriu jeweled decora
tion oil her breast. She danced opH
site the prince. When the quadrille
was over, lie said, gently: "That is a
pretty ornament. .May I ask t whom
it boiongV.'" "To Lord lslaiik," said
the frightened frirl; "he is my fiance.
He allows me to wear it." "Can you
unfasten it easily?" "Yes, your high
ness." '"Then may I ask you to take it
on, and to tell Lord lilauk that it
means .something" more than a bit of
pold and a few diamonds to be worn

ABOUT PLIGREtiS.
The 111 vers, fur Ki.iuile, May He ere
.le ereM 111 IliMuiHe.
A story in one .of the mairazines
aiMiut a woman named livvcr. w In.
haunted i-.-nea Iog-ists and e.xjierts ii
heraldry until she satisfied herself that
her family name was lie Yore, and im
mediately adopted that patriotic patro
nymic, affords no end of amusement to
paragra pliers as illustrating- the height
of absurdity in tin- quest of ancestry,
says the I lost, hi Transcript. Hut may
not the worthy Mrs. )ivvci- have Itecit
justified in her action? It is very prob
able that Pivvcr is a ph-ln-iaii deform
ity of IK' Ycre. which time, custom,
carel.-ssiiess and imtitl-r-nce to de
scent brought about. Names sutrcr
just sm-h milt ilat ions ami at rit ion iu
the course of time, and arc ground
down to an indistinct sound, losino
edge and accent ill the process. We
once heard of a man who signed his
name Simmer without the slightest
suspicion that genealogy would have
justified him in writing it Seymour.
This very beautiful ami cuphoiiius
name is treated with barbarity by
many who bear it. who pronounce it
ocnioic. utterly oblivious that it comes
from St. Maur. in which form it is now
w riltell bv t h.' d like of Somerset . w hose
heir is Lord Soy inoiir. This family of
c uioiirs. b riling the name iu its
am i. -ut and authentic form, and con
serving its concentration as Seymour
in one of their t it les, undoubtedly are
moved by th.' purMise of letting tin
world know how they would have it
pronounced. 'I .-y are a very old
race, associated with St. Maur in Nor
mandy before the Conqueror invaded
Knglaii.l. They arc as proud as the
proudest. When ir LMward Seymour
joined William of Oraii-rc at Kxoter.
the latter said: "I think. Sir Kdwnrd.
that oil arc of t he fa mil of t he .1 ukc
f Somerset." "I'ardoii me. sir." said
the aristocrat of arisf.x-rats. speaking
as the head of the elder branch, "the
duke of Somerset is of my family."
If a man or woman in America thinks
it worth the time and trouble to trace
descent iii search of an ancestor it is
quite possible that he or she may make
a discovery gratifying to family pride.
S.x-ial lines have I wen much more close
ly drawn iu lir.-at Lritain iu the last
two centuries than th.-y were iu the
times of the I'lantagcnets ami t h
Tu.lors. It was 110 iiio. .111110. 11 thing
four hundred years ago for tin- sons of
nobles to go into trade iu association
with men who had made their way
from very humble beginnings. The
sons of country knights were often
glad to be taken into the counting
house s ami households of t he rich Lon
don merchants. Marriages often fol
lowed that united the tradesman's fam
ily with old. historic lines. fry kind
ly relations sprang up between the pal
aces and "the cit." Kcn inonarchs
did not disdain to mate w it h ladies of
no higher rank than simple gentry.
Kdwar.l 1Y. married Kliaboth Woo.1
ville. who. though tin- daughter of a
baron, was the widow of a simple
knight when the king, who wasalways
taken by a pretty face, met her. The
mighty Oiioeii Kliabet h had among" her
near k insf. .1 k 011 her mot lu-r's side some
good nature! ever day count ry M-ople
who bore the name of llr.M ii. and w ho.
w hen she came to the throne, visited
London iu the expectation of ncxitisin.
The great queen was more Tudor
than I trow 11 by t he way, Owen Tudor
himself w as but a plain Welsh knight
w ho made a lucky marriage - and she
sent her country relatives back with an
intimation that court life was not their
sphere, and with no sinecure to console
thetu. 1 r. I K.I an eoiiject 11 red t hat the
slang phrase: 'Astonishing the
Lrowiis," long in vogue iu Kngland,
may have had its origin in this inci
dent. The Lrowns were ty-s. for
there was many a plain coun
try gentleman who might with gclioa-log'u-al
justification "call the king
his cousin." All this has changed:
caste has hedged itself iu within tin
last t wo centuries; classes do not min
gle so much as t hey did iu the time of
the Tudors, w hich is t he best M-rio.l for
A mericans to st udy when in search of
ancestors. if a lady or gentleman with
a taste for ancestors wauls to gratify
it. it is only au embittered enemy ot
the heraldry otlice who will seek to
thwart the endeavor.

Kival of th. Stork Collar.
The stock collar has a rival. It is
made of silk or satin and veiled with
mousseliue de soie, which is shaped
like a turned down collar and trimmed
with two narrow frills of yellow Yalen
eiennes lace. The collar is much more
dainty than the stock and is a charming-
and becoming- finish to any Inidice.
Another new idea is the satin collar,
trimmed with rows of Valenciennes
lace, lilack or mauve satin collars
with yellow lace arranged to form two
poiuts iu front, are loth new and
pretty. To be worn with gingham, or,
in fact, any of the cotton dresses, there
are deep collars of mull trimmed with
embroidery. Thoy are made to form a
yoke and epaulets, and are convenient
because they launder easily and so
freshen up a gowu. Some of these
broad collars are edged with two
rows of braiding-, through which nar
row ribbons are run. The effect is
pretty when the ribbons contrast well
with the color of the g-own. Chicago

was in the city to look ut some South
American snakes procured for him bv
a local dealer in foreign animals. The
reptiles. ay.s the Times Herald, were
all that the professor desired. The
purchase was made, the snakes were
chloroformed and the professor placed
them in a blue cloth bag he had ear
ried with him for the purpose. He then
went to the northwestern depot, took a
seat in the smok -r, placed the hag !
side him on the seat and proceeded to
enjoy a cig-ar ami the afternoon pafier.
t hi the same train a qtiartetteof hiea
go business men usually meet for a
quiet rubber on their way to their sub
urban homes. They happened to have
t heir seats on the other s' ' of t he aisle
from the professor. On the opposite
side facing- the professor, one of the
players called the colonel had his seat.
The coloiu-1 is known for his weakness
for Kentucky juice and carried his us
ual allowance on this occasion. The
play started and so did the train. All
of a sudden, as the colonel arranged
his cards, he happened to look over to
the professor's seat; he was observed to
start, and was evidently disturWd
atxiut something. This was ren-ated
M' vera I times during the journey, and
the colonel was playing in bad luck
and had to stand the joking; of his fel
low players.
Thr ft he players had now reached
their stations and said g-oid-by to the
colonel, who had a little further tc
travel. Suddenly a peculiar hiss was
heard. The professor started up. looked
at his bag for a second and then with
practiced hand caught the head of a
snake protruding from a bag.
The colonel had leeii ail interested
w it ness of the incident, and a feeling
of relief seemed to pass over his face.
Turning- to the professor he said: "Sc
it is real live snakes. liood Cod, I
thought surely I had them; why iu
thunder do you carry such beastly ver
min around w ith you?" T he professor
explained the reason and that probably
one of the snakes had not been suffi
cient Iv chloroformed.
The colonel has had to stand a (rood
deal of joking since then and has been
inviting his friends to his favorite dis
pensary. ODDS AND CURIOS, "f

In the northwest forests where but a
few years ago vice most hideous Ix.hllv
paraded itself in the public ga:e ami
almost to the present lurked butlittle
coiiccaled iu the iieighlxirh.Mnl of popu
lous communities, ex (x-rieii.-.-.l search
fails to find any vestiges of the deprav
ity that formerly prevailed. Occasional
discovery of haunts like those that
once infested the ent ire northwest re
gion now raises a decidedly indignant
outcry against such monstrosities of
the past.
And yet. says the Chicago Journal, it
was only eight or ten years ago that
every settlement in the pineries and t he
mining camps of the northwest vied
one with another in infamous and law
less practices. Citizens of more than
one locality in Michigan or Wisconsin,
after pointing out the improvements of
a decade iu the apearaiice of their
thriving city, conclude a tribute to Un
moral standing of the place and its c it i
zens wit u the statement that a score of
years ago this was by reputation "the
most disreputable town iu the I'nite.l
States."
In every lumbering town was to lx
found from two to a dozen st.x-ka.b-s.
dens of infamy where womanhood was
held as cheaply as iu any harem of au
oriental prince. At lirst these st.xxl on
frequented streets, later in by-ways of
the city, tinally retreating lx-fore the
advance of public decency to the cover
of the w.xxls. half a mile from any
highway. Hither were brought young
girls enticed from Chicago. Minneap
olis, and even more distant cities.
Kvery dive had its procuresses in every
city within reach. I'nder the control
of brutal men and hardened women
the youthful victims were inducted into
their lives of shame, never to Ik- re
leased until death came. High walls
of sixteen-foot timber placed ou end
surrounded the rude huts. At the
barred gateway was kept a kennel of
tierce bulldogs, trained to pursue only
the unfortunate women that might at
tempt an almost usclessTtlight.
The disappearance of even the very
walls that sheltered these iniquities is
something marvelous. Some were
razed to the ground by woodmen,
wearied of the immorality they fos
tered. All have vanished except a few,
which stand decaying and deserted re
minders of the old strongholds. One of
these is in the pine w.xxls across the
Menominee river from Norway. Mich.
It was otic of the most notorious resorts
of the northern region. Within the
stockade stood a comin.xlioiis two-story
frame house. The stockade itself was
of planking, sixteen feet high, with a
strong gate facing the front out ranee
of the house, ou either side of which
was a kennel of dogs. The escape
of a woman, disguised as a man
iu order to deceive the dogs, was the
means of bringing to notice the char
acter of the place and its tenants.
She had been lured to the place with
assurances of reputable employment.
Twice before she had attempted
to escape, eluding the dogs by her
change of appearance, but had l'-n
overtaken by the keeper of the place.
A prominent lawyer in Norway swore
out a warrant against the slave master
and secured conviction ami a heavy
tine. A few rejietitions of this treat
ment convinced him of the advisability
of a change of business. He betix.k
himself to the copper mining country
ou the shore of Lake Superior and en
gaged in legitimate business. He is
now the jwjssessor of a fortune of tive
hundred thousand dollars.
The house he once occupied when en
gaged in his soulless business still
stands, dilapidated and tenanted only
by the horrible assx-iatioiis, and jx-r-haps
by the sutferiug spirits of the past.
On the decaying framework of the
stockade still hang the long planks,
separated by wide gaps, through which
may le seen the desolation within. The
gate and the kennels are gone. The
doors have fallen and the thin part i
tions are broken through. It looks
what it really is, one of the last of its
kind.
Exaggerated stories occasionally
reach the public of the revival of these
old haunts, but their untruth is evident
from the character of the inhabitants
that now make up the xpulatiou. Like
all sections of the country, there is
more or less immorality permitted in
the northwest towns, but the old-time
stockades have disapjieared- So. too,
have the gambling resorts, around
which so much lawlessness centered.
The stirring scenes that made those
localities so interesting from a distance
are unknown now, succeeded by the
tameness of business enterprise. b
servance of the Sabbath and of Un
civilized customs of Christendom is not
on the 1'uritan order, but does not dif
fer from that of any section of the pro
gressive west. These parts have lost
their well-earned reputation as "the
toughest in the United States."
Naming h 11 area In (iermaay.
In some provinces of the (Seruian
empire there is an old decree in force
forbidding the giving of names not
found in the calendar of saints or
taken from ancient history. An Kng
lish gentleman writes to the London
News, saving that while in th-rmany he
wished to have his sou baptized Fran
cis, but was prevented by the authori
ties from doing so on the alxive named
grounds. He explained that Francis is
bhort for Franciskus. which is in the
German calendar, and that Sir Francis
Drake and Francis llacou might ! re
garded as belonging to ancient history.
Hut no attention was paid to this plea.
He finally appealed to the courts, but
the case was decided against him. and
he will have to pay a tine or be sent to
prison.

The king of Belgium, when walking

As the last lx.at was als.ut to leave the
