RULE OF THE ROAD
A London policeman Explained tho
r Matter Very Clearly
The first day In England says an
American traveler my heart jumped
into my thront several times Riding
on top of a bus the driver would al
ways turn toward the left when wo
were about to pass nuother vehicle
nud although I knew that that was
the English custom I held ou tight
and got shivers anticipating a collision
every time One morning I stepped
up to u policeman at Kings Cros3 to
get my bearings and as ha was dis
posed to be talkative I kept him com
pany
Among other things I asked him
whether there was any rule requiring
pedestrians to keep to the left No he
told me it was only for the roadway
that the rule held
I then asked him why It was that
In England they always turned to the
left whereas in all other countries the
rule was to turn to the right
10 h Its very importnnt to keep to
the left he said seriously I knew it
was very Important to observe the
rule of the road but why turn to the
left
HWcII he said TU show you Now
you come here and he led me to tho
middle of the roadway You see he
continued how the traffic moves along
tljc two sides of the road
Yes 1 saw and a pretty sijjhl It
was too a string of all sorts of con
veyances comirg toward us on iur
right and mother moving away from
us on the left ia far as te could
bee
Well now d vs very bn
pressivo suppose ou were drivric
along in the niidiiif here and auoi C
kerrlgo was coming tho other wy onil
suppose you fumed to the light Cvt
you see you would be getting in tV
wy of all those vehicles
Yes I saw that
Well thats why we always turn
to the left
I learned afterward that the bobby
expected a tip for all the information
he had given me Youths Compan

A ROYAL DESF0T
Wurttemberg Prince Who Sold His
Subjects Like Cattle
Cruel and despotic were some of the
petty princes who ruled the father
land before the Napoleonic wars swept
them away Charles Eugene of
temburg born iu 172S died in 1793
and during his sixty five years of life
tormented his parents his wives and
his subjects His first consort Fred-
ericka of Beyrouth was worthy of
him When entering WurttemLerg
soon after their marriage the girls
threw masses of flowers in front of
them vWhnt d6 those dogs want
the princess asked her husband They
were always quarreling and never
spoke to each other without snarling
The prince was always short of money
and sold 0000 of his subjects to Eng
land to raise the wind He took the
poor wretches from the fields clapped
a uniform on them and sent them to
their destination as if they were cattle
Once he called all tho young men of a
certain district before him and made
the following speech My brave boys
do you want to go to fight in the ranks
of the English heroes against the sav
ages of the continent No reply was
made for the moment Then a number
of tho youths stepped forward and
one of them said We do not want to
be sold like sheep The prince prompt
ly gave orders for two of them to be
seized put against a wall and shot at
once Then while the blood was run
ning from the mutilated bodies of the
two unfortunates the prince by divide
right said Run away You see I do
not want to impose my will on you I
think of your welfare like a father
does of his children You want to
fight by the side of the valorous Eng
lish All consented Schiller heard his
father tell this story and he himself
related It In a scene of one of his
Plays-
Phil Mays Drawings
The late Phil May was popularly
supposed to be the lightning artist
par excellence of England It is quite
true that he could draw many wonder
ful things straight ofT But when a
subject bad been chosen for a iun h
illustration many drawings were mi Jo
from a model or models who first id
to bo discovered By a process of se
lection each drawing of the subject
bore fewer lines When the draw bit
was published most of thoe who lu
ed at it thought that it had been do
with a few rapid strokes of the pen
whereas it probably represented a
weeks hard work London News
Bank of England Watchers
When you enter the Bank of Erg
land by any door four pairs of eyes
vatch you though you are nun ware
of this fact Situated close to the
doors are hiding places in which are
four guardians of the bank You can
not see them but they can watch y
with the aid of reflecting mirrors
which they ean see your entrance ad
exit and every movement from the
time you enter the portals of wealth to
the moment you leave them
