Lord John Rusaell wrote to Rogers
"As you would not wear the laurel

More than six months pwsed after

Tennyson at last He has himself
given a curious aroount of the way In
which he received It. He told his
friend, Mr. Knowles: "The night be

Prince Albert's liking for my 'I

German.' In the morning the lotter
about the laureateshlp was brought to
me and laid upon my bed. I thought
about It through the day, but could not
make up my mind whether to
take It or refuse It, and at last
I wrote two letters, one accept
Ing and one declining, and threw
them ou the table and settled to decide
which I would send after my dinner

curious that Tennyson In his first ap
pearance at court exactly followed
Wordsworth's precedent. He dressed
at Rogers' and wore the old poet"

I well remember," Bays Sir Henry
Taylor, "a dinner In St, James place,

make It do. Of Tennyson merely as
laureate there is fortunately little to

Rand ! Health ful.
Some time ago when an item went
the rounds of the press about the large
number of bow-legged children in Cin
clnnatl it was suggested that sand piles
should be provided for children to play
in. The sand-pile idea has been
adopted, not only for the bow-legged
children but for all the little tots, and
promisee to be carried to a novel ex
tent. Many of the school yards have
now In one corner large piles of sand
in which the little tots roll and play
to their heart's content. Care Is taken
to provide clean sand secured from one
of the bars in the Ohio river, and it Is
changed often enough to make it per
fectly healthful. It is declared to be
the best thing possible for children to
play in, and some doctors have ad
vised the making of mud pies
as a regular prescription for Dunv
youngsters. They say that there Is
nothing like contact with Mother
Earth, and that If the children do not
get healthful sand or dirt to play in
they will wallow in the gutter or yards
and be contaminated with all sorts of
disease germs. City Legislator John
Regan has gone further and has in
troduced an ordinance in the city coun
cil to shut the worthless element out
of 8th street or Garfield park and give
it over to the children. He proposes to
have sand piled in the corners of the
parks and let the children play all they
want. Mr. Kegan, who Is well known
in New York, says that this should
certainly be done. New York Journal

MINORCA IN THE LAST CENTURY
A riaaaaat lalaad lababllM by luru
I'aapla.
Minorca waa a pleasant Island, In
hlblted by an unpleasant people, aaya
Temple Har. The countryside waa cor
rred thick with olive trees, though tb
wood looked more Inviting than they
were, for the ground waa atony. Ther
were no rivers, but there waa water la
abundance, for the Mlnorcana werw
adroit well-alnkera. There were bo
meadows, so it was hard to paiturw
horses, but mules thrived onu bow anl
were useful beasts much more wo than
the horses. "The horses, like their ma,
tera. have a certain atatellnesa in their
gait that promises more good than U
In their nature, for they are both ar
rant Jade at bottom." This I the Judf.
ment of a man who knew them both.
The Mlnorcana, a naturally list leaf
people, did not favor traveling. Therw
waa one shelter house on the Island, thw
Casa del Rey, at Alalor. the first stag
out from Port Mahon on the road north
ward to Cludadella. Here the traveler
might count on finding a bed, for whlcn
he would have to pay 1 shilling. If he
carried food with him he might sup;
otherwise he must go to bed hungry.
There was one cart In the island.
The ordinary education of an En
gllsh gentleman In the elghtenth cen
tury constituted a man of learning la
Spain. When we remember what that
education amounted to we can form an
Idea of how much a Spanish gentleman
did not know and Minorca was rather
worse than the mainland. One traveler
who returned from the long and peril
ous Journey to the neighboring Island
of Majorca reported with a scared face
that they were teaching a new philo
sophy there, the foundation of which
was reason. The total population of the
Island was about 16,000. The Minor
cans were permitted by the Spanish
government to possess one knife for
each household, but they were com
pelled to keep it chained to the kitchen
table.
Enough corn was grown on the Island
to support the people, but not the gar
rison. The farmers trod out their corn
with oxen and ground It between
stones, as was done In the days ot
Oman, the Jebuslte. nut It Is not to b
supposed that they were ashamed or
even conscious of their backwardness.
On the contrary, they held It to be im
proper to know more than a Minorcan
and highly Irreligious to try experi
ments. Their vines, for example, were,
never pruned for those reasons, and one
of our officers, who pointed out the;
value of this simple operation of hus
bandry, was rebuked for his profanity
as if God who made the vine did not
know how It ought to grow better than
any heretic of an Englishman! -

Little girl asks If it Is not allowable
to have her name on visiting carda.
Answer: Dy no means. Until a vnuna
lady has grown to an age when ah
Is received into society, she should not
have a visiting card. It is customary
in cities if young girls are taken out,
and any necessity arises, to write their
names on the visiting cards of their
mothers or elder sisters. A schoolgirl
Is not supposed to be a member of so
ciety. The eldest daughter of tha
household when she reaches proper age
nas ner caras engraved "Miss Smith."
Her Christian name Is omitted. Thla
indicates that she Is the eldest daugh
ter, as no other member of the family
nas a rigni 10 use tne name in tnla
way. If her aunt is Miss Smith mat
ters become somewhat complicated; but
tne ract that there is another Mlaa
Smith In the family does not alter the
situation. One household managed thia
condition very well by writing in pen
cil In the lower left-hand corner of thw
card, merely the Christian name "Mlaa
Mary." This was done both by the
aunt and niece, either one being Justly
entitled to use tne name Miss Smith,
Therefore they compromised the mat
ter in this agreeable fashion, and every.
ooay understood tne reason.
How ITa Waa Idcatlflad.
On one occasion the prince of Walea
wanted to give Frederick Febvre the
noted French actor, some testimonial ot
appreciation and consulted hra compan
ion in the box. "I can't buy him some.
thing; that would be banal. Do you
think he would like to have my cane?"
It was decided that the cane would do.
So, stepping to the green room, the
prince paid the actor a few compliment!
on the English part he was playing and
begged him to accept the cane, saying
it had seldom left him for ten years.
He added that he hoped to see the cane
with Febvre on the stage. The inci
dent was reported and Febvre spent
the following day dismissing a queue
of Englishmen who invaded his lodg
ings trying to buy the cane. After
ward, when giving private entertain
ments in London, he repeatedly heard
himself identified by the remark made
in the audience: "He's the one that got
the cane." Argonaut.
