MONARCHY IS RAIMENT. Clotkta Is tfc Pow That QTras Ik Haata Rae. . ' There, Is no power without clothes. It is the power that governs the huwso race. Strip Its chiefs to the skin, aud so state could be governed; naked of ficials could exercise no authority; they would look (and be) 'like1 everybody else commonplace, Inconsequential. A policeman In plain clothes Is one man; In bis uniform be Is ten. Clothes and title are the most potent tiling, the most formidable Influence, In, the earth. They move the humnn race to willing and spontaneous respect for the Judge, the general, the admiral, the bishop, the ambassador, the frivolous earl, Uie Idiot duke, the sultan, the king, the emperor. No great title. Is efijclent without clothes Jo supKrt It. In naked tribes of savages the kings wear siiiue kind of rag or decoration which they make sacred to themselves and allow no one else to wear. The king of the great Fan tribe wears a bit of leopard skin on his shoulder It Is sacred to royalty; the rest of him Is ierfectly naked.
