Of all the manias that afflict mau kind tlio most ancient and curious Is probably that for collecting. The vic tims collect pretty nearly everything from books to shoe buckles and from pots to postage stamps, but giant eol lectlng was the hobby of Frederick William I., king of Prussia. - Nature dwlgned him for a recruit ing olllcor; dentin? mndo him a mon arch.

St Louis Tost-DlBpatch. A Smile- From a Stranger. Most of us owe debts of gratitude to strangers whoso kindly smile has sent sunshluo tnto our aching hearts and has given us courage when we were disheartened. It Is a great thing to go through life with a smiling face. It costs little, but who can ever estimate Its value? Think how the pleasure of life would bo Increased If we met smiling faces everywhere faces which radiate hope, auushlue and cheer! What a Joy It would be to travel In a gallery of liv ing pictures radiating hope and cour age! - Who can estimate what beautiful, smiling faces mean to the wretched and the downcast, those whose life burdens are crushing them? Many of us carry precious memories of mulling faces which we glimpsed but once, but whose sweet, uplifting expression will remain with Us forever.

Epicures accustomed fo dining In be tels and restaurants study the policy of each fashionable place and readily tolMust why they go to one place or void another, They have their likes and dislikes, aside from actual eating, regarding tho waiters, the music, the ventilation and a hundred and one other things a casual visitor would fall to appelate. For Instance, at oae restaurant only single portions are served for one per son. At another, where the cooking la equally good, half portions, nearly or quite as largo as the single portions of other f laces, are served for oue per son. There was a little dispute at a woll known hotel over a mistake In an order of trout and chicken that made a difference of several dollars on check for a rather slmplo dinner for two. It was settled "out of court," as It were, and quite agreeably, but hotel managers regret and try to avoid these mistakes, especially when the customer Is regular visitor, for they know he never forgets the details of his eating and Is slow to forgive an error. . Another peculiarity of diners is as to the location of tables.

The Brit ish fashion la this matter has been the rale with maritime people In general, That blue was ever selected for the king's naval service was a fortuitous happening.

While the king was still not quite decided be saw the Duchess of Bedford In a riding habit of blue faced with white and enlivened with gold lace. It was a revelation. Here, the king declared, was the uniform for bis sea service officers, and no more waa heard of French gray. The navy took to blue, and every other navy has taken to It since. Fall Mall Gazette.
