Unntiinc a chicken ranch near Ta-, coma, Wash., is a man named Nich-! olas Thien, who, in his younger days was cab driver to Cleinenceau, and who has accompanied the French premier to many a combat on the j "field of honor." "No one in any country." he remarked the other day, standing among his chickens, "has fought so many duels as M'sieu Cleinenceau. They i came from what he wrote in his pa-1 per. But he was so strong. He always won. No adversary could hold ; a sword against him. "It was against ihe law, of course." added the old Frenchman, seventytwo now, in a whisper, "so we always slipped out of the city for these fights." M'sieu Thlon's cab stand used to he in front of L'lntrasigeant, Clemencean's paper. Almost nightly, he says, the present premier would com? out of his office and hail cab 8088. "He got the name 'Tiger,'" M. Thien ; explains, "because he was always the boss, like the big striped cat is the boss of all animals. "Ah, my friend, those were the hap-; py days! Of course I will not Insult my chickens. They are good ones, as chickens go. But it is a tame life here. I dream often of the old days when M'sieu Clemenceau would hall me 'long about two o'clock in the morning and we'd be off." KEPT SHOES AS ORNAMENTS | American Footgear Considered by Unfortunate Serbian Woman as Altogether Too Beautiful to Wear. Anything tlint will kpep the feet from the ground is considered a shoe In Serbia. In the remote rural districts of the country it is said that many of the people live and die without owning a pair of shoes. In the bitterest weather they travel througlu mud and snow without adequate foot covering. They consider themselves fortunate if they can secure old gunny sacks or heavy | cloth, which they tie about their feet with twine in winter. The first American-made shops that were distributed by the American Red Cross created a tremendous stir among the people of the distant villages. One old woman who had never owned a pair before took the shoes that had hepn given to her to her home and put them on a shelf above the fireplace. She was as pleased as a child! ' 1 * 1.1 U.1..AA I to own mom. out noimng mum nniuulier to wear them. She said that she Intended to save fljem for fetes, or1 perhaps for her burial. They were "much too beautiful to he worn." she said. Gem's Romantic History. Truly romantic is the story of the; Braganza diamond, n stone >of 1,600; carats, and "as large as n goose's egg." which, for more than a century, has 1 been the proudest possession of the Portuguese crown. This amazing stone, which Mr. Streeter, the great authority on gems, has valued at ?r?S,000,000, was picked up by three Brazilian outlaws in the half-dried bed of the ' Ahaite river, In the province of Mlnas j Geraes. The outlaws took the stone to the nearest village priest, who obtained access for them to the governor, Into whose possession It was given. The , diamond, the largest and finest hither-, to found, was dispntched to Lisbon, with the result that the thrW outlaws received the royal pardon and a rich reward, while the' padre to whose; friendly offices they owed their good fortune was given high preferment In , the church. Flower Gardens of Holland. It was only after the fall of Con-; stantinople in 14.r?.1 that Holland be-1 mine such a pay land of flowers as It now is. Many Dutchmen went to the I East during the years of the great crusades, and those of them who loved beautiful things brought seeds with them. When these were planted in the rich soil of Holland such wondrous flowers appeared as had never before been seen In that country. The people became wildly enthusiastic over the new colors and scents and foliage brought to them from the East, and in Holland there sprang up a great love for gardening. Orchid Hard to Secure. Nearly all the orchids found in Burma can he grown with a little care and attention in private gardens. There is one exception, a sweet-smellIng species called ta/.in by the Burmese. and which Is usually brought to market in Christmas week in Rangoon. It only seems to flower in the most malarious and least frequented local! tles,_nnd at a time of the year whleh Is the fleers' matlnp season, and when they are most danperoits to human beinps.
