Frederick the Great, of Prussia, had
a way of his own of dismissing com
plaints to which he did not care to
listen. On a certain occasion the mer
chants of Hreslail applied to Frederick
aitainst the ruinous competition of
Jewish dealers, "How is it," asked the
monarch, "that the Jews manage to
draw such an amount of business into
their bauds I" "Sire, they are up early
and late, traveling from place to place,
living very economically, and content
with small gains on rapid returns.
Very well." said Frederick, "go thou
and be Jews so far as the conducting
ot thy business is concerned. '

Old Cabinet,'" Seribner's Magazine.
In Germany fashion Is sometimes com-
Itelled to make concessions to good tas te.
A Berlin correspondent tells ol an amus
ing petition recently presented to the
superintendent of theatres there. In
which the signers complained that on
account of the towering siierstriicture
worn by the ladies on the top of their
heads, and on the summit of which many
perched a hat, it was iuitossibIe for jxt-
soiis In the back row of seats to see the
stage or the performance. The amiable
director found himself in an uncomfort
able liosition. He desired to please
the frequenters of the opera, and yet it
was a delicate matter to provoke the
displeasure of the ladies. Filially he
inserted in all the leading newspaiiers
a notice stating that such a ietitioii had
been sent to him, which he would pult-
lish, with the hope that the ladies would
save bun the necessity of issuing an
order in regard to the costume to be
worn by oirera-goers. The notice had
the desired effect, and it was amusing
to see the marked change in the style of
coiOure on the succeeding evening.
Some time before, a gentleman took an
equally effective plan to clear the ob
struction between him and the stage.
A lady sat iu front of him with tower
ing braids and a high, plumed hat. He
stooped over and asked her several
times to be kind enough to remove her
hat. Mie sat bolt upright, not even con
descending to look around at the speaker.
and tlmre was a still higher elevation of
tne towering massol velvet and plumes.
Ihe gentleman quietly took out from
beneath his seat his own "cylinder"
and placed it upon his head. Iu an in
stant there were several cries of "hats
off," while the lady, supirosing, of
course, they were intended for her,
hastily untied her hat ami laid it in her
lap, to the great amusement of those
who witnessed the geutleman s ruse.
