She lived in Ontario, ' and her husband had settled on u j farm in one of the new provinces in the far west. After they were mar ried they set out for their new home in a freight ear that the bridegroom . had specially fixed lor the journey. “The front half of the car was ' arranged as a sleeping and li\ijig I room and kitchen combined. They ! , had the necessary tables and folding chairs, box cupboards for the dishes and supplies and a big oil stove. Camps hung from tlie roof of the ear. ship fashion, and the whole in terior looked particularly cozy when the bride had finished the work be gun by her husband. “The odd pari of the outfit was the fact that the rear half of the ear was fitted up as a stable for the j two horses that were a part of their i wedding gifts. The journey ended i safely and happily, I should imag ine, from the letters I have had from the bride. No girl who could have a private ear or a steam yacht Jnr such a journey would be more enthusiastic t ban rn\ friend was over her economical and unique honey moon.” New York Press. Our Financial Fiction. Through its unconscious exaggor | ationTTf 'superficial, temporary traits evil the ephemera) fiction of any period, taken in mass, may end by) producing on entirely genuine rec ord. To give an example, Thack eray pi the most general way tells how Colon* I Newcome lost his mon ey and then goes on to explain in delml how Hint loss affected him. But after reading a half dozen re cent specimens of American busi j ness novels you feel like a graduate : from some hideous commercial col lege. You could fleece the gooff J colonel and evade jail without fur j th#r instruction. A dozen such ; books as “Ee Nalml/’ would not equip you with so intimate n knowl edge of the bourse, yet succeeding generations can enjoy Baudot's sto ry, while, to risk prophecy, will any but future ethnologists find their ' account in our sordid tales of ra- ! j pine? —Marv Moss in Atlantic. A Tonsorial Adviser. - An enterprising barber in New | York has on his business cards: “1 take great delight in announcing to my kind and faithful patrons that I have engaged M. Brillouct of the . Boulevard do lu Madeleine, Paris, i to remain with me for the ensuing : year as a tonsorial adviser. His ' reputation is worldwide. Few men know how they want their hair out or their beard trimmed. Hero is a competent artist to suggest the style best suited to improve the ap pearance of all who do not shave as well as of those who do. The hock hair is of great importance. Most barbers mutilate it. A man , with his beard trimmed one way i may have a misfit look. Just the touch of a scissors in the hands of an artist may render him hand some.” The Russian Losses. Some striking figures are pub lished by the Novoe Y'reniya as to the forces at the disposal of the Russian commander in chief in Man- 1 ehuria at the close of the late war. When peace was concluded General , Einevitch had at his disposal 12.500 , officers, 017,000 men and 270,000 , horses. But from the beginning to * the end of the war there had been carried to the front 20,000 officers, 1.270,000 men, 2)10,000 horses and ' more than 1,000 guns. Subtracting these figures and making allowance for the 80,000 men already on the h spot when the war broke out. the j , Russiart losses appear roughly 7,500 officers and 433.000 men. A Qu»«n'i Queer Position. The legal position of Queen Alex andra is very curious. So far as her private business is concerned she is not regarded by the laws and cus toms of England as a married worn- ! an. The idea of the law is that af fairs of state consume all the time of the king, and, therefore, no re sponsibility for the queen's private business rests upon him. If the queen contracted debts in her bus- j band’s name he would not be re sponsible for them, as any other husband would. The king cannot be sued for debt, but the queen can be. v Taxing the German Emperor. Although the German kaiser’s automobile is the only one without a number in Prussia, and conse quently is not taxed, nevertheless his majesty is taxed for carrying a gun. He recently paid for his an nual license, which reads ns follows: “Valid for one year. Twelve months' shooting license for his majesty the kaiser and king living at Berlin— j from IVo. 1, 1005, till Nov. 3Q, 1000.
