can tons across the square to the great,
white royal palace from which she
hopes some day to oust Oscar II. 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-

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..

up the side of the horse, and placed
his paws upon the sultan’s knee. The
horse, wild with fear, snorted and
reared, and the sultan held him in
with a firm hand. Those who saw

How Tom Hart Ik Eyes.
Tom Benton waa Jus getting well
from an attack of the meantes. 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

TvpoKraphiral Errors.
Typographical errors sometimes are
really the cause ot serious trouble and
annoyance. 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.

The Queen's Gold Spoon.
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!
