The rule has long been enforced in other transpontine dependencies of the British Empire. But for some reason or other it has been, ignored both in Australia and in India.

The object of the prohibition is so obvious as to scarcely need explanation. For it is manifestly contrary to the interests and to the dignity of the crown that the latterts representatives should place themselves under obligations to private individuals, who may or may not look for a return.

It is a big, cumbersome, noisy, and effective piece of mechanism, equipped with a pair of HERMAN DANTZIG is one of the forty-five persons who were directly employed in putting together the pair of shoes you are now wearing. He received them from his side partner," the puller over," in the form of lined uppers, the vamp of which had been roughly drawn over the edge of an Insole attached to the last. Herman passed them through the machine under his chargethe nigger-head "thereby completing the operation of drawing the upper over the edge of the Insole and temporarily fastening it there. He passed it then to the third member of the lasting teen'', in which he works to have the edges trimmed. For his share in lasting your shoes Herman received one-third of seven cents.

and on that day he lasted enough to earn $3.8,5. His average wage Is $21 a week, which represents his ability to so shape shoes that they induce neither corn nor bunion, When the order was received from Blank Co. for a lot of vici kid shoes a ticket was made out in the office for each dozen pairs of the shoesa case "having a description of the stock and style of each part that enters into them. The numbers of different sizes were specified also. This ticket was given to the foreman of the cutting-room and by him to one of the cutters, who took it to the stockroom and obtained the can finely chopped leather.

The whole passed through another machine that sewed on a strip of leather around the edge of the sole; and another which pressed this out so it would be horizontal when the shoe rested On the sole; another machine that pressed a sole on it; another which stitched the sole and the strip together producing a welt" shoe; and another which sawed off the surplus leather from the edge of the sole. At the last corner of the room the last was pulled out, then it went down-stairs to have the heel put on and the edges of the sole and heel again trimmed and finished, and a final finishing coat put on the bottom. Between these operations were other minor onesthe putting in of eyelets and hooks. which was done In the stitching-room by girls operating machines. 'On the Idtwer floor a girl who took the shoes off the wheel rack for the last time and packed them in the case numbered to correspond with the original stock ticket, set down in a book the number of each man who had worked on them.

In the pages of a big book were many columns, one for each operation of shoemaking. In that representing lasting she set down the number of the team, composed of Jim, Harry, and Herman. Each of those men had also in a private workbook set down the number of that pair of shoesor rather the case num filll' 1 1 1 Tit r. fir-Tr-p; zt '1 li 1 L. 41 L.14.., -I: i '3 1 Qtr rt 1 1 i 1 t14? tiff dlio 11110 1 1 FL 714 1.2, While I do not for one moment believe that Lord Rosebery has ever dreamt of marrying the Duchess of Albany.

who is of all the members of the British royal family the one whom he knows least, yet it would not astonish me beyond meawure if she were to become the wife of another peer of the realm who has been devoted to her, and who was at one time mentioned as a possible husband for Princess Beatrice before she married Prince Henry of Battenberg. I mean, of course, Lord Beaconsfield's former private secretary, formerly known as Monty Corry," and who now occupies a seat in the Upper House as Lord Rowton. It is true that he is prematurely aged and has become exceedingly gray. But still at the same time the Duchess may think that it is well to reward many years of devotion. That she contemplates matrimony I quite believe.

and I should imagine that her intentions in this respect do not meet with the approval of Emperor William. For. according to letters which I have received from Berlin, the relations between the Duchess and the Emperor and. Empress, which until recently were of the most close and intimate character. have all of a sudden become strained to such a degree that her son, the young Duke of Coburg, who had been receiving his military education at the Cadet school at Potsdam in order to be under the immediate eye of the Kaiser, and to enable him to see as much as possible of the latter's sons, who are boys of the same age, has been transferred to the cadet school at Lichterfelde, which is more remote and where he will be out of touch with the imperial family.

And the Villa Ingenhain, which he has hitherto occupied with his mother and sister at Potsdam, is about to be closed up, the inference being that the Duchess will not be either at Potsdam or at Berlin during the remainder of the summer, the autumn, and the winter. The Kaiser is known to disapprove strongly of marriages between such of his relatives as are of royal blood and mere nobles or commoners. He treated his aunt's husband, the late Prince Henry of Battenberg. with the utmost contempt, and has held aloof in a pointed manner from the Duke of Fife. The marriage of the Duchess of Albany to some English nobleman could alone account for the sudden change of his sentiments towards her.

love3y daughters of Colonel Peers Williams of Temple House, Buckinghamshire, ran off with the father of the present Duke of Marlborough, and it was owing to this that the Prince on his return quarreled so violently with the late Duke of Marlborough, who had until that time been his friend. Lady Aylesford figured as the corespondent In the divorce suit brought by the Marchioness of Blanford (mother of the present Duke of Marlborough) against her husband, and in spite of the fact that Lady Blanford obtained her divorce on the strengih of Lady Aylesford's Intimacy with the Marquis of Blanford, yet when afterwards Lord Ay lesford endeavored in turn to obtain a dissolution of his marriage on the ground of the evidence in the Blanford case, his application was refused, the court taking the view that If his wife had erred, so, too, had be. Shortly after his defeat in the divorce court he was overtaken by financial ruin. and Packington Hall, near Coventry, and his other country seats were seized by the bailiffs. Like so many others of his order he sought relief In the bankruptcy court.

There has always been a question as to whether he really died at that time, or if he merely.

like so many others, caused his deatil to be proclaimed in order to be able to start Life afresh under a new name, and without being handicapped by his past career. In any case there was some trouble with the Insurance companies about the matter. ...7,, 11 1 Ilke f' 3 ii0 1 Ir -A 1 7,111, i 6, SHOE LA5TER5 LAW i I 5.11 ii5 I ritIvE it Irk i 1 Of i 7 14 or '''''Ilt i 740i.1:1 I 1 i I 1 I i 1 I I 4' 1 "4.

All these operations are done quickly and in unison. rp to the jaws of this machine Herman brought your right shoe, and at a touch of his foot on the operating lever the nigger-heed drove a peg In one side. To this Herman fastened the end of the wire from the spool.

YARDS 'Whatever may be said for or against Siste Teresa," George Moore's last novel, It must be judged as fine and remarkable books are judged. and the casual criticism which the jaded reviewer applies to the ordinary book will not serve. It is, to begin with, a brave book. taking cognizance of things as they are, without deference to the chaste feminine mind, which, by passing the truth by as undesirable, hopes to frown it out of existence.

The book is a continuation of the store of Eve len Innes, that highly organized being who, physicaliy, spiritually, and intellectually, exceeded in ardor and power the ordinary person. and who added to her enormous capacity for enjoyment one distinct talent. She was a singer. The cir- under which she set aside a side a Fr eat reputation and entered upon a quest for the cure of world-weariness is related in the previous volume. In this is told the story of her life in the convent, and she achieved the ecstasy of religion, and how it failed her, till she was swept back and almost submerged again in the turbulent sea of her Own desiresthose desires which neither art nor love, thought nor prayer were able to entirely satisfy, but which bore her from known to unknown things.

The reviewer was not aware that women wbo had suffered the sorrows of Magdalene were aceived into the conventual life in these modern days, save in one order set apart for such and bearing the name of her who laved the feet of our Lord, and is inclined to think Moore overstepped the facts in stating that Evelyn was received into an order of vir- gins devoted to the adoration of the sacrament. But whether this be actually the case or not, the book remains a marvel of psychological COMAS ency pursued with something of mystery and exaggeration, but none the less absorbing in interest. "Sister Tereea Is an excellent example of the truth that no arrangement of external vents, commonly known as a plot, can equal in interest and vitalfty the tragedy or the comedy of a soul. has succeeded in making the relation of events. such as accidents and adventures, seem trivial indeed.

The book is destined to create much adverse commentand to be extensively read. i It is not a ladylike book, and win be rejected by excessively ladylike persons, who do not Dnd it within the range of their conventions to admit the storms and struggles of the eager and creative nature, and who, quite I likely, are unaware of them. It Is not improbable, too, that many adverse criticisms will be made of the life of the convent as delineatedthe convent with its small wrangles, its endless small talk, almost Infantile In its character, the wearing jealousies, the hardly sustained ecstasies, the unacknowledged doubts, and the strenuous efforts of nature to assert itself. It will be felt, too, that the utterances of Mick Dean concerning religion and the religious vocation are those of sanity and sense. Since life has been given to us it is given for acceptance and not for refusal," he urged.

You will lose your soul, Evelyn, by stripping yourself of your womanhood. which God gave you to serve him with, and by renouncing your art which was given you that you might reveal him to others. You will lose your soul by seeking God in prayer books rather than in the stars, and by seeking him in scrolls rather than in the sunset and in the morning winds. The corevent is an unspeakable degradation of self, and therefore a degradation of God." That she found it so eventually, yet abided there, broken in spirit, with her voice lost, her courage gone, her sacrifices grudgingly acknowledged by those who derived the benefit from them, is logical; and the punishment which was to be expected for one 'who espoused many phases of life passionately, who never accepted anything. no matter how age-honored, without inquiring into the cause of its existence, and who had aspirations which nothing mortal and no known revelation could satisfy.

It is a book which will be disapproved of, as has been said, but it is also a book which Goethe would have enjoyed reading could It have been placed in his hands. (J. B. Lippincott Scribner Fiction Number. The fiction number of Scribner's Magazine is, as might be expected.

Besides being the warm personal friend of the King, he Is an favorite of the Queen and is often invited by her down to Sandringham to visit herself and Princess Victoria when the King is away, and there are no other guests asked.

There' is, in fact, no peer who is to such an extent the amico della casa at Sandringham as Lord Rosebery, and it is certain that were the King and Queen to be called upon to choose a -son-Inlaw among the British aristocracy, there Is no one whom they would prefer to the Earl. If he contracts the royal alliance which he is reported to have been contemplating for some time past, it will probably be found that his bride will be Princess Victoria, the one lady of the reigning house whom he knows more Intimately than any other, and with whom he has been on terms of close friendship ever since her earliest childhood. It is true that he would be the senior of his wife by nearly twenty years. But. after all, he is a man of the same age as the Duke of Fife, the husband of Princess Victoria's sister Louise, and he is so youthful looking that the incompatibility of age would not be apparent.

The engagement which has just been announced of Queen Alexandra, goddaughter of Lady Alexandra Finch, to Mr. Danby serves to recall to mind the somewhat stormy careers of her beautiful mother and of her genial father, the late Earl and Countess of Ayiestord. The late Lord, who used to be known by the nickname of Joey," was one of the most intimate friends and cronies of King Edward when the latter was still Prince of Wales, and accompanied him to India as one of the principal members of his staff. While with the Prince in the Orient, his wife, Lady Aylesford, one of the many ber of the dozen pairsand at the end of the day their book was checked off with that of the girl in the packing-room, and the team was credited with. seven cents for each pair.

Ninety pair of shoes thus passed through the hands of the three men between whistles that morning. The noon whistle had not blown by several minutes when the whole team laid aside work and started for the stairs. As they were on piece and not on time work no close watch of minutes was kept. Across the street was a saloon where dinner was waiting on a limited number of tables, and as the lasters were on the fifth floor and had to walk down they started early to get first place at the table. A minute later a stampede was on in the factory.

That dinner across the street is an institution. There is no bother of selecting dishes or courses. Every one is served alike. At each place that noon was a bowl of hot noodle soup. On each table were piles of fresh rye bread.

Each man sat down before the soup and fell to. Waiters bustled to and fro with beer steins, one of which went to each man. Then came the hot dishesto each a big plate of steaming hot boiled beef, with horseradish sauce and boiled potatoes. By each place was a dish of green tomato pickle, and on the tables were young onions and radishes. There was plenty to eat, and it tasted good.

The cost was 15 cents to each man. For those who preferred there was a glass of claret instead of beer. There were places for fifty men In the saloon, and twice that many were served. That day the lasting team handled 165 pairs of shoes. The best the team has ever done is 240 pairs, netting each man $5.60.

That is too much money, according to Herman. The money's all right," he said, but there's no use killing yourself. It's a good job at $150. The leather's clean and the shoes smell good, and the factory's as nice a place to work as you'll often find. A man can go to the ball game on Saturday and to a picnic on Sunday, and still have enough to pay his board and save a bit and pay his union dues." vas with which the shoes were to be lined.

With patterns of the specified sizes he cut the lining and passed it with the ticket to another cutter. who secured the leather stock and cut the several pieces for each, shoethe vamp. the quarter. the foxing, the tip, and the back stayand then the lot went through the hands of a boy, who stamped the size numbers on them. Eventually they passed through the stitching-room, where vamp and quarter were attached, foxing, tip, and back stay and many bits of trimmings sewed on, and the whole came down.

to the lasting-room. There Herman Dantzig and his two mates were waiting for them. Dantzig Is a young fellow who rents a room of one of his married mates, boards with the family, and has not a care this side of the ocean. He came to work that morning at 7 o'clock finished up a lot of shoes that had been begun the day before, and was ready for your vie! kids when they were rolled up to his corner of the factory on a wheeled rack containing two dozen pairs. Jim, the puller over," stood at a table that looked half desk, half counter, having an iron spud on which to put the hard maple last.

The last is the shape of the shoe, It is the block upon which the real work of the shoemaking is done. Up to that time the upper Is merely a shapeless vamp and quarter, firmly stitched. On. the last it takes the shape that makes it comfortable or uncomfortable, a fit or not a fit. The vamp is to be stretched tightly over the block and temporarily nailed there until the sole can be put on and finished and the shoe made all but the heeling.

The lasts came first to Harry. the third member of the team, who tacked to each one the insole of the shoe. Jim was equipped with a queer tool like an exaggerated pair of pliers, with a hammer attached on one side, and with the jaws curved and filled with sharp snakes' teeth." Placing the last on the iron spud, sole upward, he drew over it the upper. Catching the edge of the leather with the pliers he drew it tightly over the toe of the last and. Chair.

As a small girl, when she got into a passion, her mother used to make her repeat poetry until she quieted down. She had kept up the practice, of herself, in later years, finding it wholesome and easy discipline.

She tried it now, and became so absorbed that her tingling nerves soon found relief. By that time, the stranger who had come to her rescue had left the car, to her great satisfaction. Her ride was a long one, and before reaching home she was cool enough to conclude that except for staring at her, the man had done a kind action in a gentlemanly way. He meant well enough, I dare say," she told herself, but if I ever see him again I shall pay him that five cents or die." It was with this resolve that for weeks and months she kept a constant lookout for the unknown. All in vain, however; notwi thstanding the fact that he carried away with him a mental photograph of a charming face, framed in a fluff of brown hair, with large brown eyes, and rosebud mouth, quivering with the look of a frightened child, a face which he told himself he could not fail to recognize wherever he might see it.

Nearly a year afterwards Bessie Ayres went to a neighboring city to officiate as maid of honor at the marriage of her father's niece. There was to be a round of gayeties, of luncheons and dinners and theater parties, and she found the bride-elect bemoaming the fact that the best man could be present only for the wedding ceremony. A substitute had to be provided for him even at the last grand rehearsal. I wonder that Mr. Ross didn't choose some one who had more time to give him," Bessie remarked.

So do agreed her cousin. I told Ned as much, but no, my dear, he thinks more of Mr. Benson than of his own brother, and won't have even him in his place. Indeed, I believe be is really grateful to Mr. Bens-on for coming at all.

and it is hard for him to get off. You see the head of the firm is ill and in Europe, and only Mr. Benson can fill the place. As it is, he comes and goes at night, so as not to be away but one day." Bessie was not pleased. In spite of the serene confidence felt by every one else that -whatever Mr.

Benson did was sure to be done well. she bad her misgivings, and the maid of honor plays a responsible part at a fashionable wedding. Still she was wise, and held her peace. The all-important day came. The bride was a radiant vision In sheen of satin and shimmer of lace," and Bessie, after completing her own toilet, turned away from the mirror with the sustaining consciousnes that she also did credit to the family reputation for beauty; pink and silver became her marvelously well.

Mr. Ross and his best man were waiting at the foot of the wide staircase as the bride and her attendant came down for the start to the church. Miss Ayres, Mr. Benson." Lloyd Benson instantly redognized the girl of the street car. Bessie did not raise her eyesas her father always said, she was a person of one idea at a time.

Just now that idea was the duty of the hour. She bowed mechanically, and attended to the bride's train Instead of looking at the man who handed her into the carriage. It was not until the ceremony bad passed eff beautifully, the wedding breakfast was over, and bride and groom had departed for Mexico, in a shower of rice and rosebuds, that Bessie found time for a really good look at her fellow-second in the great event. Once more a pair of blue-gray eyes, twinkling with amusement, met hers. For an instant Bessie felt dizzy, and a startled look of recognition swept across her face, then she recovered herself and smiled.

I think I owe you five cents," she said. Indeed, why and wherefore?" I think you know," she replied. Besides, there is a year's Interest due on the debt, and I shall be glad to pay it." You are a conscientious debtor." said Mr. Benson, laughing. Will you pay me with a cup of tea? Ned tells rue that you and I live in the same city.

Seriously, Miss Ayres, I have 'been looking for you ever since that evening. If only I bad known you were Judge Ayre daughter! I know your father eighty, as who does not?" Bessie picked one of the flowers at her belt to pieces while be spoke. Mamma's day is Wednesday," she said, softly, when he paused. Thanks; then I may call? Since my best friend has married your cousin. you and I are connections of a sort, are we not? So this is an au not good-by and Bessie whispered: I hope It is not ramma.s you and and Bessie whispered: I toPe It Is 11" EVER.

thought Bessie Ayres, had she been in so unpleasant a predicament. Her purse was gone; it was not in her muff, nor yet in either pocket of her jacket. When, where, or how she had lost It she had not the idea; not that that mattered much, except the disagreeable fact that she was in the street car, miles from 1 Li home, with therein outside falling in a steady drizzle, and that she had not five cents wherewith to pay her fare. What could Tr she, what would she do? 'V (V Will the conductor put me off? she said to herself, or will he trust me for my fare if I proanise to mail it to him as soon as I get home? He must know papa by name," and then she thought gt Alt that if he doubted her honesty in one respect he would do so in all, .4 and might not believe that she was Judge Ayres daughter. Well, he may put me off if he likes.

I can ge to a drug store I and telephone for a cab." Then her face grew blank with the recollection that in order to telephone she must have twice the amount needed for car fare. As the thought drove her sense of helplessness home afresh. she looked up involuntarily and caught two blue-gray eyes fixed on her, and twinkling with amus'ement. She turned pink with vexation. Thinks it funny, does he?" she thought.

I just wish he were in my place!" The young man, standing near, looked away instantly. When he boarded the car Bessie had at once attracted his attention as an unusually pretty girl, and he had watched the little pantomine with interest, thinking, meanwhile. that he had rarely seen so expressive a face. c.Z.1 .,) Poor little girl," he thought, pityingly. i She looks ks as though she expected to be ar- 1 rested.

This study of English nonconformity is in some respects to be ranked with the first novels of The language. It certainly is one of the most Po pular of the author's works.
