A STRENUOUS RULER.

James IV. of Seotland.
One of the interesting character of
history la James IV, king of Scotland
from 1473 to 1513. lie was athletic.
courageous and fond of adventure, la
putting down insurrections and Im
proving the criminal administration of
the country be was foremost In tbe
ranke and did not abun a band to band
contest He married a daughter of
Henry Til. of KoglaDd and made a
treaty which eecured peace between
the two countries. - lie labored to build
np a navy and develop commerce and
showed aklllful diplomacy In dealing
wltb other nations. He was killed la
battle at Find den, where bis army
was dlaaetrously defeated by Henry
VIII.
Those were atrenuoua times, when It
waa necessary for a king to be a fight
er and to Inspire bla obstreperous sub
jects with some degree of terror. Ktag
James need often to go about the coon
try In different disguises, aot only be
cause be loved adventure, but because
be could tbaa aacare Informatloa on
tbe state ot tbe aatlea at drat band.
It la related of the vigorous Bcottlah
king that once when wandering through
the hills during the night he waa over
taken by a violent atorm and waa
obliged to take shelter In a cavern near
Wemys, which la oae of the moat re
markable antlqultlea of Scotland. 1 Hav
ing advanced eome way In. the king
discovered a number of men and wo
men reedy to begin to roaat a sheep for
supper. From their appearance be sus
pected that he had fallen Into evil com
pany, but as It waa then too late be
asked hospitality from them till the
tempest was over. Tbey granted it
and Invited the king, who waa un
known to them, to alt dowo and Join
thera at aupper. Tbey were a notort
oua band of robbers and cutthroats,
and this fact noon dawned upon James.
Aa soon aa tbey had finished their
aupper one of them presented a plate
on which two dagger were laid In the
form ot a 8t. Andrew's cross, telling
the king that thla waa the dessert tbey
alwaya served to atrangera; that be
must choose one of the daggera and
fight him whom tbe company selected
aa his antagonist. The king, realising
that be waa to be murdered, instantly
seized both daggera, one In each hand,
and plunged them. Into the hearts of
the two robbers nearest to Mm. He
then dashed out of the cave and made
his escape, returning aa aoon aa pos
sible wltn a body of soldiers, by whom
the whole band was arrested and pub
licly hanged. Punxsutawney Spirit
A BRAHMS ANECDOTE.
The Man Who Spoiled en Evening Fer
the Great Composer.
Among the Brahms anecdotes which
are popular In Germany thla one waa
contributed by Krau Lulse Pool.
Brahms liked Baden-Baden, and took aa
much pleasure In a winter visit to the
place aa Id the crowded summer time.
The residents knew this when tbey In
vited him in 1870 to come and direct
some of bis works. After tbe con
cert the friends of the master assem
bled at Goldemen Krans by invitation
of the oberbunrermelster ganner to
"drink a glass of wine." The session
lasted long, but graduslly the company
grew entailer. Presently they had all
gone except Brahms and CorneUua
Rubner. After awhile even Brahms
suggested home, and hla young com
panloo eagerly agreed to adjourn the
aesslon. On the way home Brahma
asked his companion, whose name be
had not beard, "By tbe way, do yoa
know thla young director Rubner?"
"Are yon Interested In him J" be ask
ed by way ot answer.
"Certainly. Adolf Jensen thinks he
Is not only great bug genial. Don't you
know him?"
I know him very well. He Is aa ar
rogant conceited fellow, who can do
nothing and knows nothing."
The pleasure of the evening was
spoiled by this harsh opinion as to a
man whom Brahma had made up bis
mind to like. The next morning be at
tended, wltb soma others, a breakfast
at Jensen's, . where he told the story.
He had hardly finished when the door
opened and Rubner walked In.
"That's the man who slandered your
friend," aald Brahms, and when ev
erybody laughed he suspected what
waa tofd to htm aa aoon as the first
man recovered.

THE STAGE KISS.
M wests tke Oealas ot the Aster mm
tke Actress.
Tbe stage kiss la Important There
m nothing which so testa tbe genius of
an actor and an actress aa the ability
under Just such circumstances to pro-
done tbe illusion of love. On the stage
K la necessary for them to forget tbeir
rt personalities, to smother their
awn feelings, one for the other, and In
me place of the warped though genu
ine kiss we see at the railroad station
and the ateamshlp wharf present to
our eyes by the magic of their acting a
highly artificial product
And tbla highly artificial product be
cause It la art and because It la pro
duced by art Impresses us as real aad
genuine wsere the actually real and
genuine would have filled oa only with
derision and contempt Just aa real
tears on the stage would fall to move
on. Indeed, tbe beat stage kisses, the
kisses that are moat convincing In the
way of reallam, are usually gtven and
received by actors and actresses whose
feeling for each other In private life is,
to say the least Indifferent Frequent
ly, it audiences only knew, they watch
lovemaklng on tbe stage between men
and women who are literally at dag
gers' points wltb each other.
I would not go so far aa to say that
such a state of feeling alwaya contrib
utes to good stage lovemaklng and to
realistic stage kissing, but I do know
that It Is an axiomatic truth, recog
oassd by theatrical rnanagers every
where, aot to engags playfoik lovera
to enact similar rotes In a drama If It
Is at an possible to get any one else-

fiP8vANb Tipping,
The Ceataaaarr Baaetlaaa oa Beats
tke Ataaatle LlBeaa.
Do aot take fright at what yoa may
bear aboot excessive tips oa steamers
and in Europe. They are numerous, but
Bead oot be large. To scatter your
money wildly In tips will mark you
aa a novice. All the eerranta will
quickly spot yea, pans the word around
and fleece you. Tipa vary, of amass.
In accordance wltb the grade of steam
ers, hotels and other accommodations
If you travel In a specially equipped
floating palace you must expect to pay
at least 20 for steamer tips. On regu
lar first class steamers, however, the
following are customary and will be
ample: Stuteroom steward, 12.50; state
room stewardess. $2.50; dining room
steward, $&B0. These are obligatory.
On the cheaper first class steamers
they may be reduced to $1 each and
ba entirely dlguitled. It all depends on
the boat. By bilking with other pas
sengers you can readily learn tbe cus
tomary acale for your ateanier. If you
use tbe bathroom recularly. pay -the
bathroom steward $1; If leas frequently
this might be cut to 25 cents a bath.
If you read books from the library,
give tbe steward a tip varying from
$1 down to 25 cents, according to grade
of steamer and frequency of hia aervlce
to you.
Tbe deck steward's gratuity la a
variable quantity; be has opportunity
for getting tips from ao many people
that be fares better than inside etew
arda, who are restricted to a certain
number; bonce' do not be uneasy about
him. Give him what you think be baa
earned In waiting on you, according to
relative aervlce with the other stew
ards. A dollar la the maximum expect
ed on ordinary boats.
Thus your total tips need not exceed
$10 a voyage and may not be mors
than $5. Be reasonable In what you
' require of stewards, and If yoa should
1 ask anedal BArviae of them antakle the

STRIKING EYEGLASSES.
Mm Law vhtafc Dedans It sta Asrarsf
Talcs Ofa-asa.
It Is the common opinion tbat tot
striking a man with glasses oo there
k a aererer penalty than tor striking
him Tinder similar circumstances when
ba Is not wearing glasses. Careful
search, howerer, does not bring forth
any statutory prorlslon which declares
tbe offense greater when the man who
la struck wears glasses. The preva
lence ot this Idea la doe, no donbt to
the probability ot tbe Jodge In each
eases glvlog tbe conricted the extreme
penalty. Tbe legal term for assault an
te each circumstances Is "mayhem,''
signifying that the assailant baa In one
-way or another deprived his rlctlm of
(he power of defending Mmserf,
Daring an altercation from which a
struggle Is apt to enaoe any one wear
ing glasses would be wise to remove
them, unobserved If nnsslhle, however,
becauae If noticed it might act aa a
Signal to begin bostUltles.
Many think that glasses would ba a
sjoorco of general protection- re these
aasss and often take satvsjstagaoa that
groond. but this as wnsn. because aa
esaut would hold It worse to strike a
Been with glasses tbaa oae without
unless the assailant struck directly at
bla opponent's eyes. With tbe Intent to
wound or realm him, and whether ose
were hit elsewhere tbaa on the eve
would not eater tba easa at aU,
Circular-Wsekly.

Business
You never heard of a man
hatinff to consult an oca hit on
account of weak eyee caused
irom look in? on tbe bright side
of thinfft. IsOts of people In the
world would re real good iftheT
didn't think tbey were to flood.
Then take tau other fellow who
hai trouble and trip to drown
them. In near every case, he
seems to think they are located
In hfa utomnch. IVnrry It tbe
undesirable thmiehtt a fellow
can't help thinklnir. Oh Per up!
Ymt nre not half an bed off na
you think you ere. Proiwrity fa
in the air, and although It may
not have struck you yot, it will
in a few dnys nr 'a few weeks, bee
cause we're going o' have sev
eral more yenrs of It. Hoch, bow
this store is erowtm. People
from all over the world are flock
ing to Medford on account of on r
wonderful prosperity. We'll
soon have U have about two
more stores right here In this
town, I think if you haven't,
been in, it's about time yon were
comiug- There it lots of good
stnf to look al You needn't
hurry about buvtng all we want
is to have you look and not over
look. MILLER & EWBANK
