Honors of this description oro In the giving of the king, or, rather, bis majesty bestows thorn on person at the recommenda tion of tho prlmo minister, who really has tho final say In tho matter, TItleo are conferred either directly or Indi rectly directly when no third per son recommends a candidate for royal recognition and Indirectly when a third person brings a candidate's name forward, he having good and valid grounds for doing so. The former method, however, Is the one which Is usually adopted. It Is the duty of the prime minister to distinguish a name celebrated In polities, science, art or literature and to decide -whether the merits of any given prominent person deserve recognition at the hands of tho king, .

Chi cago News. WOMEN OF PARAGUAY. More Than Enough Is Too Much. To maintain health, a mature man or woman needs just enough food to repair the waste and supply energy and body heat. The habitual con sumption of more food than is neces sary for these purposes is the prime cause of stomach troubles, rheuma tism and disorder's of the kidneys. If troubled with indigestion, revise your diet, let reason and not appetite con trol and take a few doses of Cham berlain's Stomach and Liver Tiblets and you will soon be all right again. For sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists. Subscribe to The Morning Astorian Patient and Good Naturad, Barefooted and Whits Robed. Paraguay Is rich In local color. The picturesque character of the native population, with their quaint Indian features nnd Jtf bits of everyday life, la' interesting to anybody fond of ob-acrrlng't-trange phases of human life. By nature these people are patient and gentle, seldom complaining, chattering and laughing from sunrise to sunset and taking small thought of what the morrow may hare ln store for them. It Is hard to Imagine how Lopez could ha vo drilled them Into fighting material of strength enough to keep ln check the combined forces of Argen tina, Brazil aud Uraguay for five long, weary years, and it speaks volumes for the Indomitable energy of the man that he was able to sustain his position for so protracted a time. Clothing Is very much of a superflu ity ln Paraguay, says the Boston Transcript. The attire of the women Is a cotton chemise with a long sheet like shawl, or manta, passed over the head and around the body ln Moorish fashion. The dress of the men is equally simple, consisting only of cot ton shirt and trousers. Both sexes are guiltless of foot covering. At times an almost uncanny feeling rises when a group of these white robed, dark hair ed maidens pass suddenly .with the silent tread of unshod feet. Of a morning la the market places the women folk flock to sell their wares, carrying on their heads the bas kets containing the few cents', worth of native produce they have been able to gather together for disposal ln the' towns. The soft Guaranl language, the common tongue of the Paraguayans, adds further charm to the scene.
