Cluneys and French Embroideries ALL HIS GLORY OF THE PAST Actor Who Has Once Lost Favor of the Fickle Public Seldom Able to Regain It. He was gaunt and drawn, a striking contrast to the rather heavy face, the confident air, and the swagger, which had extended even to the buttons on his coat but a few years ago. At that time ranting melodrama was a popu lar art, the star an elaborately built piece of mechanism, and this man the star's chief support. His fate was a common one, dra matically emphasized by his outward appearance. Like a dilapidated sign flapping in the wind, his threadbare "prop" frock coat told the tale of for mer glory, while the resignation that poured in a flood light of despair from his moist eyes attested that that glory would never be renewed. Like the old profile engine which was wont to thrill the gallery with its factitious bombast, and which now rot ted, forgotten in the storeroom, this poor human, whose art at its best had been but a "profile" one, was forgot ten and wasting, waiting lijce the other to be swept out In the great mass of uselessness, his ephemeral mission ended, his purgatory, nature's storeroom, a waiting room of poverty and despair, lightened by a rapidly fading ray of memoriesmemories of a short-lived lime-light popularity.

Personally we'd be inclined to ren der a verdict after the fashion of the immortal Paddy Divver. As the Btory goes, a loyal henchman of the clan, named Danny, was arrested for an en thusiastic and successful assault.upon an innocent third party. It was just before election, and Danny sent for his leader. The leader heard Danny's story and went to see Paddy Divver. "Judge," he said, "I wish you'd be light on Danny. He's a good fellow, and can help us a lot in 4he election." "All right!" said Paddy, "I'll give him thirty days!" "But that will keep him in jail over the election!" the leader protested. "H," said Paddy, "I mean the plaintiff!" :\%to to Discipline. -k :^V The young teacher should learn and the older teacher remember that for every teacher that fails on ac/eount of lax discipline, there is another who fails pn account of over-government. Some teachers assume the same atti tude as the policeman who found two men talking on the street corner and ordered them to move on, as there was an ordinance prohibiting crowds gathering on the streets. One man re monstrated, saying that two did not make a crowd. "One makes a crowd, if I say so," answered the policeman* A teacher who assumes that whatever he says is law, and it is law because he says It. is making a sad mistake.

The sphere of foreign affairs is one In which a British monarch, for all his complete subordination .to constitu tutional forms, still exercises real pow er. Unlike the late king, who was his Dwn traveling ambassador, and whose personality made him welcome in the capitals of Europe, George V. chooses to work through his ministers, but there is every reason to believe that ihe monarch's views will carry weight with the cabinet.'
