Royal Jewels In Pawn.

his crown jewels for a million franca

they were only just redeemed by the
Moorish government In time to pre

Tbe sword of state, which is regard

pawned by a former king, while one
well known European monarch found
himself In sueb straitened circum

The Road to Success.
Just tack this up somewhere where
you can see it:
Success consists tn getting out of
yourself everything that’s Ln you. It
does not consist In doing almost quite
as much or a little more than the otlv-
er fellow. What the other fellow does
doesn't umount to a dent In a door
knob so far as you are concerned.
Tbe fact that he succeeds by laying
an Atlantic cable, buHding an Eiffel
tower. Inventing wireless telegraphy or
cornering the world’s supply of oil
doesn't make you a failure because you
haven't gut enough ready money to
buy an automobile. You're successful
when you put to some useful purpose
every ounce of energy, every grain ot
gray matter, every mite of muscle that
you've got. Y’ou're successful when
you've developed all there is to you
aud have given that to the world.—
Pittsburg Gazette-Times.
Stories of ths Paris Ceurta.
Among humorous stories of tbe Par
is Law courts it la told bow a well
known lawyer, M. Alem Rousseau,
was once pleading a rather tiresome
raao and, noticing that tbe judges were
paying no attention to blm, aald. "As
i tbe president la falling asleep I sus
pend my speech.” But tbe judge had
> just .woke up and cried. "And 1 sus
pend you from practicing for six
mouths.” Nothing daunted, the law
yer retorted. “Well, 1 suspend myself
forever and ever," and, gathering up
bis brief and cap. be left tbe court
and never appeared again.
A Paris barrister, M. Clery, however,
was more vigorous Seeing that tbe
■ president and the aeeeesors were all
asleep, be stopped, and, dealing a tre-
mendota« blow on the desk in front of
him that woke everybody up with a
start, he cried, “Yesterday at thia same
hour I was saying"— And tbe whole
bench rubbed their eyes and asked each
I other if they had really slept through
I twenty-four hours.
Tbe same counsel was pleading at
i Versailles on a cold day and remarked
> that the judges were all turning more
and more around toward a stove that
gave out a welcome beat “Tbe tribu
nal behind which I have tbe honor of
speaking" brought them all right about

He Had a Claim.
In a certain town was a young law
yer whose father was very rich and
who had been sent to an eastern law
school. Since his graduation be bad
done nothing except open an office be
cause be bad plenty of money. This
young lawyer was proposed for mem
bership In tbe local fire company.
"We cannot elect him," one of the
members protested. "Tbe constitution
of our company says that tbe mem
bers of it must sleep and live here In
the city, and be lives out of town on
a farm and not In the city at all. He
would be of no value at all In case of
a fire at night. He doesn't sleep here
at night."
“No," replied bls proposer; "It Is true
be doesn't sleep bere at night, but he
sleeps bere in bis office all day.”
And they elected blm on that ground.

A Mountain In ths Sky.
Somewhere many miles away from
this earth an enormous mountain
twenty miles high Is flying through
space. Tbe mountain Is known astro
nomically as the planet Eros. Tbe or
dinary man has long taken It for
granted that all tbe planets are more
or lees round in shape. Tbe small
planet Eros, however, is an exception
to this rule. According to the latest
astronomical information. It is a mere

(few are over ten or twenty miles
across) are not large enough to have
sufficient gravity to draw tbelr struc

tronomery Is that Eros passed very
close to us about Jan. 24. 18D+—before
the planet was recognized—and that
