Hoods were forbidden to all except those above the rank of esquire of the king's house hold. ' ; In the following century Margaret, countess of Richmond, mother of Hen ry VII., issued an ordinance for the "reformation of apparel for great es tates of women . In tyme of mourn ings." So it seems that men and wom en have met in the extravagance of sorrow. ':.. ;'' ; f . Even 200 years ago London trades men found that court mourning seri ously affected their business. Addison relates that at a tavern be often met a man whom be took for an ardent and eccentric royalist. Every time this man looked through the Gazette he ex claimed, "Thank God, all the reigning families of Europe are well." . Occa sionally be would vary this formula by making reassuring remarks respect ing the health of British royalists. Aft er some time Addison .discovered that this universal royalist was a colored silk merchant, who never made a bar gain without inserting in the agree ment, "All this will take place as long as no royal personage dies in the In terval'' London Chronicle. MENTAL INFLUENCES. The 8tate of the Mind Has a Direct ' Effect Upon the Body. A good deal is said, in these days about the effect of mind on matter In the way of the core of disease, but less is heard about mental influences as a cause of bodily ills, yet it is an old truth that the state of mind has a direct effect on the body. The gloom and depression caused tf worry and anxiety create a morbid condition of the physical system. It la Impossible to feel well physically when the mind and spirits are downcast The blood does not circulate properly, appetite falls, the head aches, and if these mor bid conditions continue more deep seated ailments are likely to arise, and cancer may be-one of them. ' With many persons a fit of anger is followed by an attack of indigestion. Excitement destroys the appetite, bad news creates nausea, fright causes falntness, and so on. Violent or -depressing emotions always disturb the equilibrium of "body and mind alike. This being the case, it is Inevitable that when these emotions often recur or become continuous serious physical results will follow. The obvious les son is, then, tbat mental serenity tends to health is. in fact, an essential element of health and that instead of resorting to mind "cures" after the health is broken it is wise to preserve the serenity as a preventive and safe guard against disease.

He Had 8eme Regard For th 8oelal , 8ide of Trade. The summer visitor in a small sea port town was amazed and amused at the assortment of merchandise display ed in the little store at the bead of the wharf. The showcase was devoted to an assortment of candy at one end and a lot of cigars and tobacco at the oth er end and no barrier between. Next to the shdwease stood a motor engine valued at several hundred dollars. Thinking to please the proprtetor, the visitor remarked tbat even the large department stores in . Boston could not boast of such a collection. "Well," he said. "I ain't aping them j stores, I an tell you. I aim to keep wuat my ioiks want When a man wants an engine for his bo't he wants it, and if the fish are running be can't wait to send way to Portland or Boa ton for it. Be wants it when he does, then and there." After a little pause be continued: 1 don't like the way they do business in them big stores, anyway. Why, when you go into a store up to Bos ton the first thing you know some body, asks you what you want "Now, .1 .never do .anything like .that If a man comes into my place I pass the time o' day and ask him to set and after he's set and talked a while if he wants anything hell tell me. "I never pester a man to buy. May be be ain't come to buy; maybe he's come to talk." Youth's Companion. The First Universities. To fix precisely the date of the rise of the first universities is Impossible for the reason that they were not founded, but grew. They were started by a few able men who bad something they wished to teach and youths wished to learn. .Gradually the free, voluntary center of learning became the organized affair we know as the QnJtursJty. Among the earliest of these centers 01 learning were Saler no, Naples and Bologna. Italy being the first land to experience the literary revival - We may say tbat Salerno university was fairly established by the year. 1000, the University of Bo logna by 1100 and the University of Naples by the year 1200. The Uni versity of Paris, which owes Its ex istence to the genius of Abelard, was founded about the same time. New York American. SPECIALS EM - iiiiJi! i- ' A inr.hAft widft.
