M u lti Hafld, sultan of Morocco, was • born gambler. While be was still sultsn the French resident-general In Morocco gave 4 party in bis honor and. knowing the inonarcb'a passion for gambling, organized a baccarat game While M ulai Hafld was winning, a British newspaper man named Loris who was losing, said: “ Yon do wrong to take that money. It's against th. teachings of the Koran.** That s< whriled the sultan that be was on tlx point of giving back his winning»., when he saw nearby the French chief justice, a recognized authority on Mussulman law. T e l l ifle,” said the sultan, “ whether It Is against the Koran to take this money.** The jus ’ tlee remained silent a moment before replying. “Your majesty, If you have played a straight game, you cannot touch thia money because it Is mere hazard that made you win and It Is forbidden by the Koran to take ad vantage of hazard. But If you— how shall I say?—forced your luck— I mean, cheated a little— you may pul the money In your pocket because you w..n It by your skill and cleverness.’ The sultan smiled. “Thou art the greatest and most learned Judge 1 have ever met," and he pocketed the money.

Alclde Mlrobolant wished to sig n ify bis undeclared passion for Blanche Amory, he sent up to her a special dinner, the dishes of which were de signed from beginning to end to sym bolise her maidenly virtues and bis own admiration for them. He wound up with “au Ice of plombiere and cherries . . . in the form of two hearts united with an arrow, on which I had laid, before It entered, a bridal veil In cut paper, surmounted by a wreath of virginal orange llow era.” I f Mousleur Mlrobolant could do so much with a mere lee, to what heights would his symbolism have soared In the architecture of a wed ding cake? It Is d e a r that he would have had no sympathy with a cake which depended on a classical sever ity of line for Its effect.— Manchester Guardian.
