That of Little Denis was a hussar's, and Its Intricate cut, numer ous buttons, straps and buckles and painfully small size proved quite too much for him. He sent the prince a despairing message begging help, and ft relief party of delighted midshipmen was sent to dress him and bring blm aboard. They fulfilled their errand; but, with the mlschlevousness of their kind, they so tightened every fastening of his overtight attire that the poor youtb was nearly bursting with combined pride and suffocation when he arrived, and it was evident he could uever be got out of his unwonted finery by any method less drastic than cutting blm out Still, no manner of wearing a com plete costume ever equals in comic ef fect some of the savages' combinations of unrelated items.

When the church Is ready to proceed with the steps preliminary to the can onization, an able man is appointed to assail the memory of the candidate and to bring against 'him all possible charges, which the other side must satisfactorily dispose of. This accuser is known as the "devil's advocate," and not until he is silenced by the dis proof of his charges can the canoulza tlon be accomplished. John Fox, Pres. F. L.
