ery opportunity to become models of
queenly grace and beauty. God bless

months Mr. Buky has been operating
a linotype machine on the Ocala Star,
and while he is an enthusiastic star
gazer for Ocala, he is still the friend
of Palatka and its main defender in
the Marion county capital. In the re
cent game of ball between the clubs
of that city and Palatka, and when
the club of this place was being
laughed at as mere amateurs, Buky
turned the tables by betting 2 to 1 on
Palatka and winning $10. For more
than 11 years Mr. Buky was a valued
employe of the Palatka News. And
in the war with Spain he went to the
front with the Palatka company, be
ing with the company and at the
front at the battle with the scrub
palmettos inthe outskirts of Fernan-dina.

she "never heard tilui express any par
ticular admiration fur the primrose,
which It is always said was his favor
ite flower, though n great admirer of
Ills used to send him big buuehes of
them from Torquay every spring."
f'irant Dull', when discussing the prim
rose cult with Lord Pembroke, was
tulil. "There ale two stories about It,
but certainly be once told Cory. 'I like
to lie ill the country when the prim
roses are nut."' A consensus of opiu
Ion seems to favor the idea that 111

STUCK TO HIS FAITH.
Anyhow It Paid the Young Prussian
Not to Change It.
A kttiK of Prussia who reigned about
the tH'trimiiii j of last century was not
vd for bis ueniaiity, and often in tin
course of bis walks thioiib the stiecis
would enter Into conversation with his
subjects.
One day he met a yonicj mail anil
asked biin what his faith was The
youth, who was somewhat of a wa
answered. siiiiHny. "I believe what in.v
tailor believes." The kln; entered
pleasantly into the joke and then ask
ed niiain, "And what does your tailoi
believe in?" "Your majesty." replied
the youiiK man. "he believes that he
will never et the lit) marks which I
owe him, and 1 believe it also."
The kins laughed heartily at tile out
siKiken and unrestrained way In wh.i-h
he had answered him. and then cave
him 30 marks "Now. then, you can
pay your tailor and so cliunue his
faith." The youiiK man fancied, how
ever, that he could use the money for
a better purpose, and the tailor nat
urally went unpaid.
Not long afterward the king met the
same youth, who, as be saw his maj
esty approaching, tried to escape down
a side street The king bad, however,
espied him and called after him. The
youth, somewhat crestfallen and
abashed, approached his majesty, who
at once asked him If he bad paid his
tailor. A smile passed over the young
man's face as be replied. "Tour mnjes

30 marks."
