Being a King No Cinch.
"I suppose you think," remarked
King Edward, as he wiped the sweatband
of his crown with his handkerchief,
"that this thing of reigning
is a soft snap, but it isn't. Of
course, things are a little better since
the leading monarchs organized a
union and insisted on an eight-hour
day, but It's no picnic even now."
"I had never heard of such a union.
Edward," I observed, as I ran
my thumb along his sceptre and found
that it had a mighty poor edge.
"Have all the monarchs joined it?"
"All the top-notchers have; a few
scrub kings are reigning out in the
brush, but they cut no grass. Most
of them were blackballed when they
tried to join, and so their being out
of the union is a ground hog case.
. Before we organized a king had to
be on the job practically day and
night. Many a time I had to get out
of bed at all sorts of hours and go
to the throne room and reign a few
lines in order to please some delegation
from the back precincts. Now
I begin my stunt when the 7 o'clock
whistle blows and finish at 4 in the
afternoon, as I do not take a layoff
at noon I brine mv grub with me.
You can see my tin dinner bucket,
with Its coffee-cup arrangement on
top, under the throne."
"It's a pretty fierce-looking throne,"
I said. "I'd as soon sit In a washtub.
Why don't you loosen up and buy an
up-to-date throne that you could
reign In without breaking your ,
back?"
"That matter is out of my Jurisdiction,"
answered the king, mournfully.
"The British monarchy has
outlived a good many superstitions,
but it still clings to a few. It is anchored
to the belief that the throhe
should be a good deal like a road
scraper. I could buy something fit
for a white king to sit In at an American
department store for two pun
thrippence or so, but there would be
a riot, if I attempted anything of the ,
kind. The idea of a comfortable
throne, with rockers under It, is re>pugnant
to all the Britons, and Britons
never, never shall be slaves.
"My idea of a really sumptuous
throne Is an American barber's chair.
When I was a young: man I visited
your blooming: country and had my
royal whiskers sandpapered off several
times and whenever the words
'solid comfort' are mentioned I think
of a barber's chair. It was really a
wondeTful contrivance. You took a
seat in it and the barber pulled a
lever and your feet went up and your
head went down and you had a
merry-go-round ride for nothing.
And your American barbers are so
courteous! If they happen to get
soap in your mouth they are always
willing to take It out with their fingers."
"So British superstition condemns
you to use that old bone-crusher of
a throne as long as you reign?"
"Yes. The original British throne
was fashioned of rock and it Is still
used at coronations. It Is like sitting
down In a stone quarry to use it.
We are strong on Jeffersonlan simplicity
In this country and the principal
throne manufacturers endeavor
to make their product as uncomfortable
as possible and they expect to be
knighted for doing it. As I said, we
have outlived some old superstitions.
In the long vanished days it was cus- 1
tomary to anoint a sovereign with oil. 1
The oiling of Queen Mary, for in- 1
stance, was a solemn function. If 1
.. _ I
a King iritMJ lllai uunaua;o iuk
surgent press would accuse him of '
being subservient to the Rockefeller
Interests."
"I don't bellerve I'll announce myself
as a candidate for king," I said.
"You have your head on straight
my dear son," remarked King Edward.
As I left the palace I heard the
sound of sobbing and I recalled the
words of the poet: "Oh, weigh
against a grain of sand the glories
of a throne!"?Chicago News.
Farmer's High Finance.
Speaking of the present prosperity of
the farmer, Assemblyman Warren Pine
of Riverside related a little story at
Trenton the other day which would
seem to indicate that the agriculturist
is not always far-seeing with regard
to his finances.
Some time ago, Mr. Pine said, he was
on a train and overheard the conversation
of two farmers who were on
their way to Trenton. First they talked
about the dry spell they had last
summer, then the game laws, and
finally one of them remarked that he
had heard that Josh Hankins had had
his annual hoe killine.
"Yaas," returned the other with a
chuckle, "and he didn't do a goshdasted
thing but bunco himself good
and plenty." '
"How did he bunco himself," queried
the first, wonderingly. "He got a good
price for 'em, didn't he?" 1
"Yaas," answered the second, with
another gleeful chuckle, "that was ther
whole derned trouble. He got such a 1
good price for 'em that he sold ther 1
whole bloomin' lot, an' didn't keep 1
none for his own eatin'."
"Ye hev kind o' got me. Bill," was
the puzzled response of the first. "Ye
will hev ter come again." 1
"It is as easy ter see as slippin' off
a greased log," said Bill. "He sold all
them hogs at $10 a hundred, an" now 1
he is buyin' them back fer his table in
pork chops an' scrapple lots at something
like 20 cents a pound."?Philadelphia

Imnrouina an Onoortunitv.?"I want i
each one of you," said the Ypsilantl
teacher to her class, "to write a sentence
upon the blackboard about one of
your parents. Maud, you may write
first" 1
Maud walked to the blackboard and <
wrote:
"My mother makes good biscuit." I
"Now, Maud," continued the teacher,
wishing to impress the exercise, "tell
how you know she does."
Maud turned again to the black- i
board and wrote immediately under
the first sentence, "My lunch." 1
"Very good," commented the teacher.
"Now, Bob Higgins, you may try."
Bob walked to the board with a firm
step and in the hand of a 10-year-old
wrote:
"My father sells Hour to Maud's
mother."
The teacher was thunderstruck by
this sentence, but, thinking to stump

LEGEND OF THE HOLY GRAIL. '
Precious Treasure Sought by Knights l
of the Round Table.
What was the Grail? Where did It
come from, and what became of it? |
Many people who have seen references (
to this one of the most famous legends <
In all history, have wondered how the (
old story originated, and how It came 1
down to us in its present form. (
oneny, uirw uc iuc ?>.? vuuv?.?ua.
it and the legend, as nearly as we can ]
know them, for the dust of ages which
has so long obscured them.
Many different writers have used (
this ancient story, which in Its primi- <
tive form, was of Celtic origin, and i
which was one of the most popular i
romances of the middle ages. The
first trace we And of It is as an unfln- j
ished poem?by Christlen de Troyee, i
a French trouvere, who died about ]
1195?called "Parceval," or "Le i
Conte del Graal," which was completed 1
by a person or persons unknown. On f
this poem, Volfram von Bschenbach, <
of South Germany, founded, about i
1210, his "Parzival," which was con- j
sidered the finest poem on the le- |
gend.
There are two versions of the ro- {
mance. In the oldest form, the hero (
is Parzival or Percival. In the other,
of which the best and most complete |
version, and the one most familiar to j
us, is by Sir Thomas Malory in his t
"Morte d'Arthur," the hero is Sir t
Galahad, the son of Lancelot du Lac. )
Tennyson uses this second form in his \
"Idylls of the King." On the other, ^
older version, Wagner founded the
music-drama "Parsifal." t
The Holy Grail, called the Sangreal t
by the ancient writers, was the cup t
from which Christ drank while at the '
Last Supper. Joseph of Arimathea, (
wishing to preserve something of our ]
Lord's, took the cup with him from
the table. During the crucifixion,
when one of the Roman soldiers
thrust his spear through the dying
Savior's side, some of the blood which
flowed from the wound was caught
by Joseph in this cup, which thenceforth
became doubly sacred.
Joseph took the cup to England,
and placed it in the abbey of Glastonbury,
which he founded. Here it
remained for many generations, an
object of veneration. Many mystic
qualities were attributed to it, and by
its beneficent presence peace and plenty
were shed over all the land.
So long as the guardians of the cup
were pure in thought, in word, and
deed, all was well. But at length a
young monk, to whose care it was
committed, forgot his vows. The Grail
vanished, and with it went the prosperity
of the land. Violence and distress
became the people's portion, Until
the reign of King Arthur. He did
his best to restore what he could of
happiness and prosperity, but without
much success.
One day, when the Knights of the
Round Table were feasting with the
king in the great hall at Camelot, a
soft radiance suddenly illumined the
place, and the air was filled with
sweet odors. The Holy Grail appeared,
veiled in a scarf of white samite, *
so that it would be seen only indlstinctly.
It hovered in the air above
the table for a moment, and slowly
I'aniaVta^ fl o-q in
vaiiiouvu ugiAiit.
Then rose in his seat Sir Gawaine,
the Courteous Knight, and vowed a
solemn vow to go upon the pilgrimage
of the Grail, so that, if by chance,
It might be recovered and brought
back, the torn land would be at rest j
jnce more.
Then appeared an old man, leading 1
by the hand a youthful knight of fair
countenance, and the old man said:
"Peace be with you, fair sirs! I
bring you here a young knight of the ?
line of Joseph of Arimathea"?and the
name of the knight was Sir Galahad.
Now at the Round Table there were
twelve seats for the twelve disciples
of Christ, and one for the traitor Julias.
None of the knights had ever 1
ventured to sit in that seat, since a
Saracen, who once placed himself .
therein, was swallowed up; and it
was called the Siege Perilous from that
clay. But Sir Galahad sat there un
harmed, so that the king and his
knights each looked at him in won- ?
tier; and on the table before him there
appeared these words:
"This is the seat of Sir Galahad, the
good night." So they marveled more j
than ever, and said:
"Ferhaps this is he who may
achieve the adventure of the Sangreal."
The knights then celebrated a
solemn mass, and set forth each on
his own way to seek the Holy Grail.
But only three ever saw it; and to
but one of these did it appear unveiled.
First of them all started out Sir
Lancelot du Lac, the bravest and most
accomplished knight of all the Table
Round. For many a day he rode
through pathless forests, until he
came at last to a stone cross, near
which was an old chapel; and looking
through a chink in the wall, he "
spied an altar richly decked with silk,
and on it a tall branched candlestick
of silver, bearing lighted tapers.
Here he would fain have entered,
but there was no door. So he laid
himself down upon his shield beneath
a tree at the foot of the cross, for it
was night. And as he lay between
sleeping and waking, there came a
sick knight, borne in a litter, who lamented
and complained, crying:
"Oh, sweet Lord, how long shall I
suffer thus before the blessed cup shall
give my pain relief?"
Then Sir Lancelot, as though in a
dream from which he could not waken,
saw the candlestick come out before
the cross: and after it came the
Holy Grail, veiled in red samite, and
borne by Invisible hands, and the
knight was healed of his disease.
Then the tapers and the cup returned
Into the chapel, and all was dark.
As the stranger knight kneeled before
the cross to give thanks, he beheld
Sir Lancelot, and wondered that
he could rest when the holy vessel
was present near him. But his squire
said:
"I trow this man is guilty of sins
of which he repenteth, but which he
hath not confessed;" and this was
true. For Lancelot was the lover of
his king's wife, Queen Guinevere, and
thenceforth the Grail was not for him.
So they departed, and Sir Lancelot
woke, and wept and sorrowed until the
break of day.
Then he arose and wandered on un- I
til he came to where dwelt a saintly
hermit, and to him he confessed his
sins. The hermit absolved him, and
ordered him to perform a severe penance,
and Sir Lancelot abode with
him for a while, and repented sorely.
It chanced, then, that one night he
came to a great caatle, guarded by
lions. And as he entered, he laid his
hand upon his sword, but it was
smitten out of his grasp, and a voice
cried:
"O man of evil faith, trustest thou
more in thine arms than in thy
Maker?"
Sir Lancelot crossed himself and
the lions suffered him to pass unarmed.
He came at last to a chamber
where the door was shut, and within
i voice, sweeter than any mortal's,
was singing. Sir Lancelot kneeled
iown and prayed, and the door opened.
All around him was a wondrous
brightness; and the voice said:
"Pntor nnt Sir Ijinfielot!"
In the chamber he beheld a table
[>f silver, and on It the Sangreal, veiled
In red samite. And about it stood
i. throng of angels holding a cross, and
the tapers and ornaments of the altar.
In joy and amazement Sir Lancelot
forgot the command, and stepped
forward to enter the room, but a hot
oreath smote him to the ground, he
folt himself lifted up, borne away, and
laid upon a bed, where he lay for
;wenty-four days; and in his sleep he
saw many a vision of strange and
wondrous things. When he awoke,
ind told those about him of what he
fiad seen, they said to him:
"Sir, you have seen all that you
ihall see, and the quest of the Sanjreal
is ended for you."
Sir Galahad, when it came his turn,
ode forth without a shield upon his
lourney, and on the flfth day he came
:o a great wftite aDDey, wnere ne raei
wo knights, who told him that withn
that place was a shield that none
night wear save he alone who was
vorthy.
On the morrow they rode to where
:he shield was hanging; when one of
he knights called King Baydemagus,
:ook and hung it about his neck.
Then came a riding knight clothed
n white armor, who tilted with King
Saydemagus, overthrew him, and

South Main Street,
wounded him sorely, for the shield
slipped from his shoulder and refused
to cover him.
The next day Sir Galahad put on
the shield, when it hung in its place.
He then rode to the place of meeting,
and asked of the white knight a solution
of the mystery.
The latter replied, "This Is the
shield of the gentle knight, Joseph
of Arlmathea, and when he died he
declared that none should ever after
safely bear It, save only the good
knight Sir Galahad, the last of his
line, who should perform many won
derous deed;" and speaking thus the
white knight vanished from sight.
Many great deeds did Sir Galahad,
and many a lonely heath, many a
gloomy forest, many a pleasant
countryside, and many a town, did
he visit in his wanderings, till at last
he came to the borders of the sea,
guided by a gentle woman, the sister
of Sir Perclval, a brother Knight of
the Round Table.
There he found a vessel in which
were Sir Bohort and Sir Perceval, who
welcomed him warmly. They afterward
passed over the sea to the great
rocks, where was a fearful whirlpool;
and there lay another ship, by stepping!
on which they might gain the land. |
The three knights went on board, Sir
Galahad first
Here they beheld the table of silver
and the Holy Grail, veiled in red samite;
they all kneeled before it, and'

a voice saying:

and when thou desirest the death of
thy body, It shall be granted thee and
thou shalt find the life of thy soul."
The ship now began to drive before
the wind till It came to the city
of Sarras. There the knights took
the silver table out of the ship. Sir

On reaching the city gates they met
a man upon crutches, and Sir Galahad
called him to come and help to
carry the table; when the cripple
arose and bare It with Sir Galahad,
although It was ten years that he had
not walked without aid.
The king of that city had just died,
and In the midst of the council a voice
cried out bidding them choose as ruler
the youngest of the three strangers.
When Sir Galahad was chosen king,
he commanded a chest to be made of
gold and Jewels, wherein he placed
the Sangreal, and every day he and
his comrades kneeled down and prayed
before It.
When It was a year to a day that
Sir Galahad had reigned in that
Mimtro ho wont In nnnn n Hnv tn iln
homage to the holy vessel. And first
he saw a man who kneeled before It
in shining raiment, surrounded by a
multitude of angels; and the man
rose, and said to Sir Galahad:
"Come, servant of the Lord, and
thou shalt see what thou hast long
desired to see."
And he stepped back, and the angels
with him, and lo! there was the
Holy Grail, shining as though with
the very light of heaven, and the veil,
of samite had fallen from It. When
Sir Galahad saw this, he trembled.
The stranger said:
"Knowest thou me?"
"Nay," said Sir Galahad.
The man said:
"I am Joseph of Arlmathea, whom
the Lord hath sent to bear thee fellowship."
Sir Galahad lifted up his hands to
heaven, and said:
"Now, Lord, if It pieaseth thee, I
would no longer desire to live."
And after he had prayed the angels
bore his soul up to heaven, and
a hand caiiiu from above and took the
Sangreal up out of their sight, nor
hath mortal man ever since beheld it.
