She has gone to Sweden's capital armed with bundles of documentary evidence and backed by a formidable array of legal talent, and she Is prepared to stay there until she can persuade the Swe dish people to help her swap her bon net for a crown, her hotel room for a palace. And, mind you, Miss White's ambi tion does not spring from an unsound mind. i>he Is a bright, intelligent American woman, and actually has good grounds for her claim. She al leges and is prepared to prove, she says, that she Is a lineal descendant of Sweden’s most popular king, Gustavus Adolphus, whose direct descendant, Gustavus IV., was deposed in 1809 be cause he embroiled the nation in too many foreign wars. Miss White thinks that she could give a better sample of ruling than her anfortunate ancestor. Every Swede knows that King Oscar Is descended from the Barnadotte fam ily, which three or four generations back was not even a noble one, but if Oscar is handicapped in the line of an cestry he has the advantage of Miss White In other respects. In the first place, he has possession, and would probably hold on to his throne as long as possible. Then, he Is a very popu lar monarch, and Miss White, while her claim has been discussed to some ex tent In the Swedish papers, la psrnenal- ly unknown. A Fatherly Assurance. - Mrs. Cumrox’s son was studying hii Latin lesson. There was the tremolo of discouragement in his voice as he remarked: * “I don’t seem to get along with thii lesson very well, father.” “Can’t you say any of It?” “Yes; I can say ‘amo, amas, amat,; and then I always forget what comes next.” “What does those words mean, John ny?” asked Mr. Cumrox, who deserves credit for being always ready to add to a somewhat deficient early educa tion. “They mean *1 love, thou lovest, he loves.’ ’’ “It does seem too bad to see you starting in so soon,” the old gentleman mused, “with the difficulties that baa always surrounded that verb. Bui fou might as well commence young to learn that them words In one way or another causes two-thirds of the both eration that occurs in this life.” “Please can I quit school, then?” “No; it wouldn’t be any use. You couldn't dodye ’em, and you might as well go right along and get as familiar with them av possible. You’ll find that learnln’ ’em ain’t half the worry that handlin' ’em Is after ye know ’em..

The horse, wild with fear, snorted and reared, and the sultan held him in with a firm hand. Those who saw him. say that he was not in the least disturbed. He put his hand on the lion’s head and stroked it. Then he turned to the chief officer of the court and asked: “How many pounds of meat are given to this Hon dally?” The officer told him the quantity. “Let the Hon have ten more pounds.” said his majesty, and the beast, as 1( an actual petition had been granted, withdrew from the horse’s side and lay down again, quite pacified. “These animals,” said the master of the horse, “understand what is spoken, although they have not the power of speech to tell what they want.” “Mashallah!” gravely responded another. feTlBJffgD ^LIMITED DOUBLE DAIDt SERVICE To Atlanta, rbarlotte, Augusta, Athena, Wilmington, New Orleans, Chattanooga.

He waqted to fet up and lay with the other boys,/but the doctr had said he must lie gtlll in a darkroom for an other day or two. “Much he knows abouthow a fellow feels!” grumbled Tom tc^lmself. “A little light won’t hurt nybody, and I'm going to read my nw book If I can’t do anything else.” Tom pushed open the binds and read until Nora came in wit bis supper. ‘Tomorrow I shall get u> and have a good time,” he thought, ’Vta not going to lie here forever." That night Tom wok* up with a sharp pain in his eyes. Tiey had never ached so before and he screamed for his mother. She bathed them in ,cx>l water but they still hurt so mucf that the doc tor had to be sent tom “You’ll know enough to obey orders next time, won’t you, young man?” he asked when he heard what Tom had been doing. “You'll tbep those eyes of yours bandaged Iff several days yet, if you want to g« rid of that pain. It’s lucky for yo ., you don’t use tobacco, or your eyes would be a great deal worse than they are now. Have you heard about Burt Cirter down at the Mills?" “No, what Is the mattejr with him?” asked Tom. “I’m afraid he’s going to lose his eye sight entirely,” said the doctor. “He’s been smoking clgaretts pretty steadily and drinking beer every day and now his eyes are paying the penalty. They are going to take him to n city oculist tomorrow, but I’m afraid no one can help him.” “Why, his eyes used to be as strong as anything,” said Tom. “He could look right up at the sun when all the rest of us had to use smoked glass, and he says he always reads on the cars; I can’t, because it makes me dizzy." "Well, I’m thinking he never will again,” said the doctor. “He has abused his eyes once too often, and now It looks as if he werb going to be blind for the rest of his life.” Tom looked pretty sober. “Miss Gray told us all these things in the physiology class,” he said, presently, “but we boys thought she was Just try ing to scare us; maybe she wasn’t, though.” ‘No, indeed,” said the doctor, “she was telling you the truth, and you’d better be thankful you’ve found it out in time.

On other occasions they are simply amusing. Some years ago an advertisement of a political meet ing was inserted in a Philadelphia pa per. The advertisement was Intended to announce that a well-known leader would address “the masses" that evening. Owing to the misplacement of a "space,” however, the public of Philadelphia was informed that the address would be delivered to “them asses at National hall.” A re ligious paper called the Gospel Ban ner, which Is published at Augusta, Maine, once attracted attention through the prank of a printer, who transposed two words of its motto, so that it read: “In the name of our God we will up set our banner." The omission of a comma was the cause of a suit for libel brought against a western newspaper by the Inventor of a patent medicine. A testimonial to the worth of his compound was In serted In the paper, and read as fol lows: “I now find myself completely cured, after being brought to the very gates of death by having taken only five bottles of your medicine.” The couyna, which should have come after the word “death,” was unnoticed by the compositor.

A curious story is told by I^ady Middleton of how one of Queen Vic toria’s smallest gold spoons was lost and found. A lady attended a state ball In a dress, the skirt of which was arranged in perpendicular pleats In front, stitched across at intervals, and unknown to her, a gold teaspoon got lodged at sapper In one of these re ceptacles. Of course there was one spoon missing after the ball, and the fact caused great perturbation to the official In charge of the gold plate. The next spring the lady went to a drawing-room In the dress she had worn at the state ball, and as she bent low before Her Majesty, the pleats expanded, aiwl the gold spoon fell at the queen’s feet!
