Oourt etiquette is the oo^tof ralee
which encloses the sover^faK^keepe

Prince Oortschskoff, who for many
yews was the Prime Minister of Rus-
sia. was noted for his obsérvanos of
minutest petpteot etiquette is his rela>

in, tho English aaabassador, onee ask-
ed him if the Ewperor*e cold was bet-

his eyee, Oortschakoff answered in a
reverent tone.1 mm
"His majesty has deigned to feel a

It was the characteristic

The Spanish court is notid for its

The oounclllers did not really get

ttsiiig the royal fee^, i The foi-
ling extract from a foreign periodical il-
Inetrates how ooatly it is to offend
etiquette: ft '
. One of the vhief reasons of the Duke
of Aosta's unpopularity during the bHe!
reign and before his abdication, was
that he would take no pains to studv
the complicated etiquette of the Escuri*
el. He eought to introduoe simple men-
ners, in a country where even beggars
draps themselves proudly iu their tat-
tered mantles and address one another
aa."S«nor Oaballsro."
< Hs one day told a muleteer With whom
he had atopped to tulk on a country
Toad under a broiling sun, to put on hi*
hat. Ha forgot the fact that by order-
ing asubjeet to cover himself in the.
royal presenoe, he crcated him a gran-
¥" Marshal Prim, who Was standing by,
hutUy knocked the muleteer's, ««id*
dress out of his'hand, and set' his "Mbt
upon it, at the same time offering the
man'some gold. ¡ M' ¿í '
But the muleteer, who wta mortally
ofltnded, spurned the money,' A few
daya later, wheu Prim was assassinated,
a rumor was circulated among the peo-
Sle—but without truth, it seems—thai
le mortified muleteer who had narrow*
ly missed becoming a grandee wae aa
aoosssory to the orime. ^ ""
At another time, King Amadeo inooa-
sideratoly addressed a groom of his in
the «eoond person eln guiar as tfc "Hap-
pily, the man wae an Italian, for, as a
a court ohamberlsin represented to Hit
Majesty, a Spaniard spoken to witb
this familiarity might haveolaimed that
the monarch had dubbed him cousin—
that is had ennobled liim.
Another thing which the much wor-
ried Italian Pnnee had to leafn, was
that a Spanish King must not sign any
letter to a subject with any friendly or
complimentary formula, but must sim*
ply write. "Yo El Beg" (I, the King).
In the caso of Carlyle, who creaked
and groaned under dypopsia for errar
eighty-four years, sp.upoommon a,oaeef
Doubtless, no one would think of speak-
of him as an illustration of health; but
was there not in him more of the eea#noe
of bodily health than in Keate, wlio pro-
bably enjoyed far more in hie sherrt life
than ever Carióle did in his long ons,

Perhaps Sir Andrew Clark I would say
that health is one thing, and strfngth
another; and that while joy in lifmg is
the definite oriterion of health, it is not
at all a oriterion of tehaoity or strength.
But is joy in living the criterion-aven
of health in all kinds of orgaaizatione
alike ? u it'dot true that otae disease,
and that sometimes a mortal disease,
leavee the overspill of joy almost'aollf-
feeted, while aaotber, without tho
smallest deadlinees, will extinguish
while if lasts every possibility of joy 1
Every one knows hew much of radiaitea
of life consumption often admite and
how muoh of gloom is due to every slight
affection of the liver. Surely tbOfteater
number of medical men would aardly
subscribe to Sir Andrew Olarh'e doo-
trine, that in all kinds of constitutions
joy in living is the criterion of jhealth.
Excess of vital energy which aoee not
consume itself in any form of action fre-
quently bubbles over in opere delight)
but sprtly thers mey be ¿ó suoh excess
in many constitutions in whisht he bal-
anoe of perfect health is still maintained.
A constitutional gloom sometime ?tooaeto

whether it seas anew foro of ambu-

maybe the company was running'

'iCome, you. raise up, you shrimp, or

snoring on the middle seat ''Xou

the drummer raised Up apparently half

conductor^ "it is near breakfast time,

'Talking about ahoot!n$" said the
old kicker, as ,Re paid Üls faro to the
conductor, "I liave come nearer being
shot this 4th of July, than ever before in
half a century of celebrating, and r be-
ll :ve the time has oomo When the
Fourth ahould bo abollahed.
"O, my ge-o-d," said the UMOrMM*
man ton a front seat. "Listen to the
traitor! Palsied be" the hand that
abolishes* Ik jPalsléd be the brain that
diotates it, and palsied be the ploklód
tongue that tongues suoh an idea."
"Chesnut," said the floor walker.
"Bats," said the deteotlve.
"You red-headod auarchlst," said tho
drummer, "would you abolish the
only day in the year that has a smell
of patriotism, because somo boy fired

forefathers fought to establish and
maintain, because you burued your
lingers trying to head oft a nigger
chaser, orbeofoae a pln-wheol would
not whirl and sputter. You are a trai-
tor with a big T," and tho drummer
olimbed over tho back of the seat and
sat with the floor walker, rather then
be eontamlnated by contaot with one
so disloyal. .
It lan't that I don't love 4th of July
and appreciate what Its oolebration
teaches," said the old kicker, looking
around at his persecutors, ' 'but it la the
