QUEEN SAAV'S READY WIT.
A Story Appropriated From the An
nals of Irish Royalty.
The anger of King Colm was terri
ble. .'Tvras a fortnight before he could
address himself to his queen or look
her in the face a ad speak to her and
what he come to say to her then was
that she was a shame and a disgrace
to him, but sure what could he ex
pect anyhow when he was such a no
torious fool as- ever to marry a beggar
of a race of beggars. "Get up," says
he, "and dress yourself, and leave my
sight and my castle for evermore."
"Very well and good, me lord," says
Saav, says she. "I'm ready. I was
prepared for this, as you'll remember.
before ever I married you; but," says
she, "you remember your agreement
three back burdens of the greatest val
uables I choose to carry out of your
castle at my Jarln?"
"Thirty-three," says he, "if you like.
Twill be a cheap price to get rid of
you."
"Thanky, me lord," says she. Til
only ask three. And before I've got
them out mybe you'll think lfs
enough."
"What Is the first back burden you
choose?" says he.
"A back burden," says she, "of gold,
silver, diamonds and Jewelry."
; In a short time the king had a bur
den of them piled on her that near
almost broke her back, and with it she
went out over the drawbridge.
When she laid it down and come,
back in again says the king, says he.
"What will your second back burden
ber
"For my second back burden," says
she, "hoist up on me our baby boy."
The king gave a groan that'd rent
rocks. But he wasn't the man to be
daunted before, any woman. He lifted
with his own hands the boy In whom
his heart was wrapped up and, settin'
his teeth hard, put' him on Saav's
shoulders. She carried him out over
the drawbridge. , -. , ;
When she come back again says
Colm, says he, "Now then, name "your
third and last burden, and we're done
with you forever, thank God!"
Says Saav. says she. "Get on me
back yourself." : '
King Colm and his good Queen Saav
lived ever after the happiest and most
contented couple that Ireland . ever
knew, a parable for all kings " and
queens and married couples In the na

as her husband lived ever after and
died the justest and most generous,
most reasonable, sensible, affable and
amiable king that Ireland ever knew

. Whistler lt Them Wait.
Whistler's laxity in the matter of
engagements, was notorious. No one
ever knew If he were coming or not
to affairs. But his point of view is ex
plained In his answer to a friend of
his who knew that he had an engage
ment to dins with some swells in a
distant part of London and who felt
that it was most impolitic for Whistler
to offend them. It was growing late,
and yet Whistler was painting away
madly, intently.
; "My dear fellow." he said to him at
last, "it is frightfully late, and you
have to dine with Lady Such-a-one.
Don't you think you'd better stop?"
"Stop? ."fairly shrieked Whistler.
"Stop, when everything is going beau
tifully? Go and stuff myself with dis
gusting food when I can paint like
this? Never! Never! Besides, they
can't do anything until I get there!
They never do!"
Popular Jokes.
The most popular Joke which has
been published In any language in the
history of rhe world Is stated to be
that which appeared in an obscure cor
ner of the Punch almanac for 1845. It
read. "Advice to persons about to mar
ry Don't!" It would be Interesting to
know who was its author. Another,
founded on a similar subject, was the
"Advice to persons who have 'fallen in
love' Fall out!" One of the most bril
liant things that ever appeared in our
contemporary was the brief dialogue
between an Inquiring child and his im
patient parent: "What Is mind?' "No
matter." ""What is matter ?' "Never
mind." Westminster Gazette.

"Benson was a good friend, of mine,
and I hated to lose him. He always

"What's the matter? Has Benson
left town for good?"
"No."
"Surely he isn't dead?"

JEFFRIES IN OAKLAND.
San Francisco. July 6 It Is difficult
to imagine a greater change in a man
than that presented in James J. Jeff
ries today when he stepped from his
private car at the depot in Oakland.
Jeffries was not the same triumphant
Jeff who boarded another private car
in the same station less than a month
ago bound for the battle ground at
Reno. Then he looked every inch the
athlete trafined to the minute. Today
he presented the appearance of an old
man, broken and dejected and the pic
ture of weakness. . -
A fair-sized crowd met the fallen
idol at the station but there was
scarcely a cheer. Jeffries' old admir
ers seemed to feel that he would pre
fer to efface himself from the scene as
quickly as possible.
The boiler maker went direct from
the depot to the home of his old friend
Dick Adams, where he will remain a
short time before going to southern
California.

There's no end to the good stories that this store
spread before folks at 45 cents. It is an amazing collec
tion. Each day it grows bigger. Such an assembly of
books at such a small price is of interest to every man and
woman who enjoys reading. It is of double interest just
now for it sparkles with the sort of books that one likes
to take along on vacation trip. Chambers, and IcCutch
eon, and Einehart, and Tracy, and such writers are well
represented in tablefuls of good reading.
They are good books, mechanically, too. Some of
them seem to be actually the editions that were sold at
$1.15.. .They are all printed in good clear type upon good
paper and are bound in substantial and attractive fashion.
They will look well upon the library table. More than
that; they are good companions, entertaining from cover
