The most graceful woman among European royalties. Queen Alexandra, would perhaps come an easy first; our Queen is six Inches taller than King Edward. The Cr.ar is also much smaller than his beautiful consort, and according to the same authority, the German Empress has a greater height than the Emperor. The King of Italy Is known as one of the smallest rulers ot his time, ond scarcely reaches to the shoulders of the truly regal Montenegrin Princess whom he married about seven years rTO. The Queen of Portugal also, we are told, Is taller than King Carlos, ond likewise the Queen of Denmark. Queen Louise Is a Swede, and belongs to a nation of big people. The Queen of Rumania and the Queen of Spain also equal, if they do not exceed, their consorts In height. Westmin ster Gazette. Ghost Hookworm?

It Is manifested In the library and takes the form that the books rannot be kept In order. They move about, or are moved about, from slielf to shelf. If you arrange the works of Shakespeare in correct cr C.vr tiu one shelf by next morning the volumes are scattered anyhow on different shelves. This has gone on for years. At different times the library has been searched, and lock el, watches have been set all night, servants have come and gone, but the mysterious occurrence goes on, and Is vouched for not only by the family but by the guests who have clayed In the house. There Is no legend to account for It. Appeal to Force. In 1817 one Richard Thornton, called to the bar of the King's Bench In England, charged with the murder of Mary Askford. in open court threw down the glove and defied his accus er. Whereupon there was a pretty to-do. Wager of battle, it was sup posed, had died a natural death In the dark ages, but Lord Ellenbor ongh, after much consultation of pre cedent, held that it was still the law of England and ordered a field to be prepared. Thornton's accuser there upon declined combat, the prisoner was discharged. Next year Parlia ment passed an act abolishing this privilege of appeal to the strong right arm. Medical Trninlng.

GRAFT IN CUSTOM HOUSE Importer Want to Know If President Will Back Collector Loeb. York. Nov. 2. Importers who have been connected with the graft ring In the customs service are plan ning to send lejtal representatives to Washlneton to find out whether Pres Idont Taft and his advisers intend to back Collector Loeb In the policy of protecting confsssed customs tnieves. There are a number of Importers who have received the tip that they are to be prosecuted for participating in or conniving at fraud. They have heard that the government has In preparation more than luo cases aeai lne with organized thievery. Theli attitude is that if they are to be brought to court they want to see the crooks within the service punish ed, not rewarded.

Puffed Wheat-lOc Puffed Rice-I5c These are the foods invented by Prof. An derson, and this is his curious process: The whole wheat or rice kernels arc put into scaled guns. Then the puns arc revolved for sixty minutes in a heat of 550 degrees. That fierce heat turns the moisture in the grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tremendous. Then the guns are unsealed, and the steam explodes. Instantly every starch granule is blasted into a myriad particles. .The kernels of grain are expanded eight times. Yet the coats are unbroken, the shapes are unaltered. We have simply the magnified grain. One package will tell you why people de light in them. Order it now.
