HOSPITALITY THAT IS REAL Comparison of the Modern Dinner Party With the Spirit It Vaihly Emulates. It is easy to be hospitable when one has a surplus, but even more delightful to receive the hospitality of those who only have enough. These give you of themselves; the rich often only of their purchases. What they are and what they have, they give freclv enough, and they are entirely without that simian and vulgar notion of hospitality that when one entertains one must give not what others are accustomed to, which has made the modern dinner party such an arid thing. Who would not irive all the chef-tinkered f o dishes lie has ever eaten to have a chop and a potato and a pipe with i Doctor Johnson; or a cigarette with "Chinese" Gordon or Robert Louis Stevensonor a curry with Clive, or a buckwheat cake and sirup with Lincoln; or a sausage ;ind a glass of beer with Goethe: or a glass of jiuiich with Vasa or Gustavus Adolphus; or to have said "Skaal" over a glass of the plainest vintage with Djornson and Ibsen; to be put to sit it the same table with those modem vikings, Sven Hedin and Nansen and Amundsen? The Scandinavian, the democrat of the most ancient lineage in the world, seems to know better than almost anyone else what independence means.?Price Collier, in ScribnePs Magazine. GONE BROKE Tn* U t Pills?I hear the bankers are down and out. Mills?Did the panic do it? Dills?Oh! no. They escaped that, but they passed the summer trying to fix over an abandoned farm. WAR REVIVES OLD HYMNS. An interesting feature of the changes in sentiment brought about in the flapsburg monarchy by the war is the new popularity acquired by the old Kossuth hymn. Until recently that stirring Magyar song was frowned upon by the authorities as revolutionsry; now, with the substitution of the name of Francis Joseph (Ferencz Jozsef) for that of Kossuth Laios, it has acquired a new meaning and the streets of Budapest resound with its strains, as do the streets of Vienna with Haydn's "Gott erhalte," to the satisfaction of Hungarians and Austrians alike.

I IEAR OF GEM PRODUCTKM Output of the United States Has Beci Satisfactory in a Great Variety of Ways. The gem industry of the United States in 1913 was marked by a fairly large output of sapphire, a real advance in the work of testing the Arkansas diamond field, and a greater activity in the Nevada opal field. There was, however, a decrease in the production of most of the other gems mined. The total production was valued at $319,454, according to D. B. Stcrrett of the United States geological survey. The output of sapphire in Montana was the largest ever reported to the survey, and the value is estimated at $238,635, or over $43,000 more than in 1912. The sapphire consisted of both blue and varicolored gems and culls for mechanical purposes. In Arkansas one diamond-washing plant was in operation about three months and recovered several hundred diamonds, and the construction of another plant was practically completed. Many new claims were located in the Xcada opal field, the development of winch, along with those previously opened, resulted in a fairly large output of beautiful gems. The imports of precious stones for 1913 were valued at $45,431,998 and were the largest in the history of the industry. A REAL ONE "Is he a good doctor?" "\T.iw hp's a nimek." ROUMANIA'S NEW KING. King Ferdinand of Roumania, succeeding the late King Charles, was in 181)9 declared prince of Koumania and heir apparent to the throne. Physically he has never been very robust, and the threat of tuberculosis has hung over him for years. He is said to have little taste for soldiering, his mind leaning rather toward science, and his education has been along this line. He is described as shy, reserved and unbending. He married the Princess Marie, daughter of the duke of Edinburgh, a brother of King Edward VII of England. MIGHT BE WORSE.
