America has one advantage in the way of preparedness, Ather people aren't accustomed to violent death. The world relieved from debt for a year will feel so good that it will want the liability left off forever. Nature is grand. She put sap in trees as a protection against the sap who leaves camp fires. Another explanation of things is that a public office seems no bigger than the men who have held it.

Certain Gentry, The right Of the heads of a :13rit:- ish ducal heuse.to be hanged on a scaffold thirty feet higher than the. used for ordinary offenders is among the many hereditary privileges, smut: of them but little less curious, en- joyed by various members of the peerage. One of these rights, L. was revealed the other day, is that pos- sessed by scions of the House of Percy, of which the Duke of North- umberland is the beau, of being, bur- led in Westminster Abbey; All peers of the -i eaim, should the, become liable .0 the ,:.st penalty or the law, can exact the use of a ;silken cord instead of the usual heu.pen rope. But tlio Dukes of •Atholl are unique in numbering among their other special privileges that of tieing executed on a seai'told considerably loftier Llia,n that utilized for c,LLcn malefactors, be they nobles or coin- moners. Another unique- hale ditele right possessed by the Dukes 01 &the]], and one of which the present holder of the title avails hims=elf, is Lea. of maintaining a private army. ' omplete with artillery, the duke's "army" is 1,000„strong and is com- posed entirely of six-foot giants be - tonging to the Clan Murray, of whica the duke is the head. The Duke of Norfolk, as Earl Marshal. and Chief Butler of Eng- land, ]las 'die right to an escort of cavalry ton :any special occasion. The Newcastle, as owner of the Manor of Worksop — which, by the way, is pronounced "Worseup"—has the privilege of presenting the Bing or Queen with a right-hand glove for use at, their coronation and also of giving support on that occasion to the sovereign's arm when he or she holds the sceptre. Two persons in England,and two only, have the hereditary right to re- main "covered”— or, in plain lan- oguage keep on their hats — in the presence of •thee sovereign. One of ,hem is Lord Forester, premier bar- on of Ireland, and the other Michael Constantine de Coureey, who was created Earl of'Ulster for conquering that part of Ireland. The odd hereditary right or ap- pointing the Mayor of Newport is pos- sessed by Sir Maneine Owen Mow- bray Lloyd of Newport Castle, Pem, brokeshire, who claims the most an- cient lineage in Wales and is the only remaining lord marcher in England. This right is his by a charter dated 1215, which has been confirmed by four British monarchs — Edward L, Richard II., Elizabeth and James I. A little known privilege that all peers of the realm possess, but which none, so far as known, has exercised recently, is that of killing two of the Ring's deer when journeying to or from the sovereign's presence in obedience to the royal summons. The "bag" is limited to two deer and these must be slain in the presence of the King's forester. If that official is not at hand the peer is enjoined to blow several blasts on his hunting horn to summon him before pursuing bis quarry. Many traditional rights are also enjoyed by the Lord Ma—ear of Lon- don. One of these, recognised recent- ly, is that of Laing the first person outside the ren al family to be inform- ed of the birth of a royal priuxa or princess, The other rights include ad- mission to the Tower of London at any hour of the day or night, the Lord Mayor being supplied regularly with the passover.
