A Tip for a Naval Officer.
An officer of the navy, who shall be
nameless, io deference to bis extreme
modesty, exhibited a curious trinket
in the corridor of the St. Charles last
evening, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat. It was a five cent coin
about which a narrow gold hoop bad
been welded. On the hoop was the
legend, “Reiuium Donum," in small,
black, enameled letters. “I am going
to give it to my wife for luck,” said its
possessor. “The story is this: I was
at Key West docks one day while the
row was still in progress, helping with
some repairs on the torpedo boat Por<*
ter, when three ladies put in an sp*
pearance, eager to see sights. They
were wealthy Bostonians, and as they
bad the necessary credentials I volun
leered to show them around. I must
have been a pretty disreputable look
ing individual, for I had just crawled
out of the engine room, and my old
blue blouse and cants* trousers were
a mass of oil and grime, but there was
no lime to fix up, and I proceeded to
my duties as cicerone just as I was.
The visitors were greatly interested,
and, as they insisted on seeing every
thing, we were upward of three hours
in making the rounds. I took them
aboard an auxiliary cruiser, explained
the working of the guns, showed them
a Whitehead torpedo, and left nothing
of interest unseen. When the tour
was finally completed I suggested that
they take a cup of tea at the officers’
mess, supposing that they understood
my rank from salutes and salutations
as we made the rounds, but they look*
ed shocked and embarrassed. T am
afraid,* said one A of them, 'that we
would hardly be welcome without a
regular invitation.* A t that she opened
her purse and extracted thia nickel.
‘Here’ my good man,’ she continued,
‘take this fer tobacco.’ I was so stnnn
ed I forgot to thank her, and, nodding
pleasantly, the party sauntered away.
The boys rigged me a good deal about
the affair, but I concluded to keep the
nickel in the family as a sort of talis
man. A jeweler at Jacksonville put
on the baud.”

T. B. a prominent druggist of
Greensboro, Ga., writes as' follows:
“I have handled Dr. Pitts’ Carminative
for eight years, and have never known of
a single instance where it failed to give
perfect satisfaction. Parties who once use
it always make permanent customers. We
sell more of this article than all the other
Carminatives, soothing syrups and colic
drops combined.” For teething children
it has no equal.
Good Goods, Well Advertised-
Going the rounds of the press is an
item stating that the Royal Baking
Powder Company is the largest adver
tiser in America. Os course, the busi
ness itself must be an enormous one to
justify so great an expenditure in
publicity. There is no fallacy more
dangerous than that success can bo
gained by advertising an article of in
different merit. But, given an article
of the highest quality like Royal Bak
ing Powder, which when the house
keeper has once used she finds if she
desires the host food she cahoot do
without, then the greatest measure of
success is attained by keeping it con
tinually before the public. Great
merit and good advertising are both
essential to make a product a great
success. The Royal Baking Powder
possessing the first, its proprietors
bsve wisely used the second, and the
result is apparent throughout the land.
The Royal company believe that there
is no medium for advertising like the
newspapers, since in these enlightened
days everybody reads them.

A KING’S INGRATITUDE.
Bow Lowta FhlMppv »•»•** the ®ea
•rosity of Americaas.
Gauverneur Morris, at one time Ameri
can minister to France, with tiw generosity
always shown by our
unfortunate, upon tearatag of the, fortarn
condition of the Duke of Orleans (after
ward Louis Philippe, king of the F«moh),
offered his assistance to secure him safe
conduct to Philadelphia. The Orleans
family at that time were proscribed in
France, and in consequence were unwel
come visitors to any of continen
tai Europe, being compelled to live in dis
gUMorris not only invited the duke to ac
company him on the voyage from Ham
burg to Philadelphia, but at the same
time transferred to the prince an order
for £IOO to defray hts expenses from Bale
to Hamburg. The timely assistance was
accepted with effusive gratitude by the
royal Frenchman. When he reached Ham
burg, he found that Mr. Morris had been
Intrusted by the president of the United
States with a diplomatic mission in Ger
many, and therefore their departure was
delayed.
At length the Duke of Orleans sailed
for Philadelphia on the America, where
arrangements had been made for his
brothers to join him. The three prinoes
were received with great cordiality by
Washington, then in the last year of hie
presidency. They were present at his fare
well address to congress and witnessed the
inauguration of John Adams. An invi
tation to spend several days at Mount Ver
non was eagerly accepted. General Wash
ington himself arranged the Itinerary of
their proposed trip through the country.
Every substantial assistance was given the
three princes, whose mother and sister
were wandering from place to place in Eu
rope, always under proscription.
After traveling extensively north and'
west they determined to go to Cuba, hav
ing learned that their mother was living
in Spain, where the Duchess of Orleans
vainly sought permission for her children
to join her. No sooner had they landed in
Cuba than they were confronted with the
order of the Spanish king refusing them
permission to remain in Havana, or “any
other part of the Spanish dominions in
the new world.” In a letter written sub
sequently to Morris the Duke of Orleans ‘
expressed lively sentiments of affection
and gratitude toward the United States.
But when he came to the throne as
“kingof the French” he treated the claims
of this country with the most contemptu
ous unconcern until President Jackson
ordered our minister to leave France and
called upon congress to give Louis Phil
ippe a lesson by seizing French ships and
cargoes. Then and only then were our
claims settled.—Washington Post.
Old Jake's Shoes.
There is an old one legged negro named
Jake Lando in this city who would attract
attention anywhere by the picturesque
dilapidation of his attire. He la as nearly
a walking ragbag as it is possible for a
human being to become, Slid how he holds
himself together is a profound and inex
plicable mystery. His complicated tatters
are all the more conspicuous from the fact
that the old fellow always wears an ex?
cellent shoe on his remaining right foot,
and he seems to possess a great variety of
different kinds. Back of this circum
stance Is a quaint little story. Old Jake’s
farmer master lives at Baton Rouge and
has also but one leg—the left.
At intervals he sends the crippled darky
an assortment of shoes for which he has
no use, all being right, and he has kept
him supplied in this manner for many
years. As it is impossible to sell odd
shore, the old fellow is compelled towear
them, and while the rest of hla attire
would indicate that he is in pretty hard
lines, there is no gentleman in New Or
leans who keeps better shod. What Unde
Jake will do if his benefactor should hap
pen to die is a question. He would no
doubt find some difficulty in discovering
another one legged philanthropist.— New
Orleans Times-Democrat.
