That of Dig Denis was a French gen'
eral's, which bis wires managed to get
blm Into. 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. One venerable Af
rican chieftain received his European
guests with an antiquated evening
shoulder cape of pink flowered satin
and spangles worn about his waist as
an apron, while his white wool was
martially crowned by a military hel

In connection with the Komnn Cath
olic ceremony of canonization there is
an official called "tho devil's advocate."
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.
