A form of amusement to which King - Pepin was `partial was what were termed cours plenieres. These were assemblies at which, upon the king's invitation, all the lords and courtiers of France` were expect- 7 ed to be present. They were held twice in each year-at Christmas and l and generally lasted for about a week at each time. Sometimes these gatherings took place at the king's palace, sometimes in the neighborhood of one of the larger French cities and sometimes in somerural district. While the festival lasted the king took all his meals in public, bishops and dukes alone being privileged to sit at the royal table. A second table was provided for abbots, counts and other leading men, and at both tables there was shown more profusion than delicacy, both in the qual- ity of the meat and drinks and the man- ner in which they were served. Flutes, hautboys and other musical instruments were played before the bearers of each. course as it was removed from the tables. When dessert was served, 20 heralds, each holding aloft a jeweled goblet, shouted thrice, Largesse, largesse from the most potent of kings! As they shouted they scattered among the crowds handfuls of gold and silver coins. Then the trumpets were blown, while the better class spec- tators shouted and the meaner sort scram- bled and often fought vigorously for the money scattered by the heralds. , fVLn_lnn `TYT I\ nnnnnn '\I'I` 1: Ann` a".t'\I\ ".l\ LLIUIJOJ uuauuvnou vuv uunuluuu ".7 Charles VII of France put a final stopto the cours plenieres, alleging that the ex- pense attendant; upon his wars with Eng- land made it impossible for him to con- tinue them. One of the severest causes of expense, it was explained, arose from the fact that, beginning with King Pepin s time, etiquette and custom alike demand- ed that the king should upon these occa- sions give an entire suit of new and gor- geous clothing not only to his own servants and retainers, but also to those of the queen and all the princes of the blood royal. These garments WI.-: said to be livres--that is, delivered at the king's expense--and from this word the English word llvery was derived, as was the custom of providing servants with liv- ery, from the above mentioned practice of certain of the French kings.-London Society. lmpecunious Titled Parisians Drew Lots to Decide Who Should Marry Her. Lilian Bell. in a letter from Paristo The Ladies Home Journal, writes that the most shameless thing in all Europe is the marriage question, and proceeds to narrate the experiences of a rich Ameri- can girl who came to Paris with letters to friends. On account of her wealth she was invited everywhere by mothers of marriageable sons, but being unable to speak French was not much of a success. She went tea convent to learn French, and was shown much attention by the Duchesse do Z---, who was determined that her son should marry her. Sudden- ly, to the amazement of everybody, the heiress sailed for America without a word of warning. The duchesse was furious. `You must follow her, she said to her son. `We cannot let so much money es- , 9 nu_- ___ .....I.J L- -...l:I Inn I-nnnnunrl SUI). "WU uuuuuu Jun BU ILILIDII nuvuvJ vs cape.

When the other impecunious young nobles heard that the duchesse no longer had any claims upon the Ame:-ican s mon- ey, they got together and said: `Somebody must marry her and divide with the rest. We can t all marry her, but we can all have a share from whoever does. Now we will draw lots to see who must go to America and marry her. The lot fell to the Baron de X--, but he had no money for the journey. So all the others raised what money they could and leaned it to him, and took his notes for it, with enor- mous interest, payable after his marriage. He sailed away, and within eight months he had married her, but he has not paid these notes. His wife won't give him the IJI-I\JDIJ lllJV\ money!"

But it is not so in France or in French literature. The real French gentleweman deserves to be better understood, for he is totally unlike ` the heroines of modern novels, whose writ- ers know about as much of aristocratic life as the author of The Lady Flabella in Nicholas Nickleby. The pictures presented in Octave Feuillet s writings are perhaps the truest to nature as it-is seen in some melancholy cases. But he himself certainly would have been ready to admit that the women he met in daily life had nothing in common with his mor- bid heroines. As he belonged to a good old family of the upper bourgeoisie, he had better opportunities of knowing the society ` which he depicted so powerfully in his novels of fashionable life than have the upstarts who describe salons of which they have never crossed the threshold. . L- ,- __-_1__ -n 'n1...-(1I-4. -1, LIIIVU UUVUI _Ul.'UEUUu'|llU ULILUBI-I\ll\Ae _ But even in the works of Feuillet, al- though the frame is accurate, the portraits are those of exceptionally diseased minds. Women like Mme. de Champallon in M. de Camors or the dreadful J uliapde Tre- cosurmay exist in France or elsewhere, but those who know French society will certainly recognize more readily women like Mme. de Gamers and her charming mother or the Suzanne of La Clef d Or, with the home of Sibylle and the dear old people so delightfully described there. Many examples might be quoted equally sweet and pure among the heroines of; Feuillet s impassioned narratives, and one u is oonvin_ced that these have been more taithfullly copied from nature than the others. nu, - a--;. 2- J.I._L LI... ..-....L uvan-:I\`fI!

The fact is that the great majority 01 French novelists belong to the Bohemia of literature and are not admitted within the precincts either of aristocratic circles or of the less rened but equally strict bur- geois homes. They know only the border- \ land, peopled in general by the wealthy and adventurous foreign set which huddd and expanded during the second empire and has now taken its place by the side 0!

That's where I learned human nature before we youngsters knew anything about the ways ` of the world and had a comb with a piece of paper over it and a jew s harpand a mouth organ for the orchestra. I'll never forget when we gave `Red Handed Anto- nius in the barn-8 cents for adults, 1 cent for children over 5 and free seats for the balance. Everything was real. I had a corn knife for a sword, and there wasn't a soldier in the squad that didn't have a musket longer than himself. When we fought, the anger of battle amed from our eyes, and when one fell he went down so hard that it took weeks to remove the bruises. The audience would get on their feet to cheer, and it tool: half a dozen husky marshals to keep them from going after the villain with pitchforks. nun.-- u. ........... 6-Irena can I-ml-uanrl Antn. 311851` IILIU Vlllllu vvauu yuauuavanuu When it came time to behead Anto- nius, the excitement was intense.

When-I removed my coat and rolled up my sleeves, the breath- ing stopped. J ust here my father entered . by way of a granary door and carried me kicking oi! the stage.

"3 Among the historical incidents connect- ed with the rathhaus is one relating to an old judge who laughed himself to death. One sultry day, reads the record, during a t recess of the council the members were leaning from the windows of the rathhans in the hope to catch any stray wind. It was the periodof hoops and voluminous skirts, and maid shared withgmistress the mania for distended attire. On this pulse- less summer day a pretty servant girl in `a wide hooped skirt and a gay bodice made her way through the loitering groups up to the fountain. She filled her tub` and lifted it to her head, but in this move- ment, lo, the wonderful skirt was wrested from its fastenings and it dropped to the ground; Thejudge had seen the maid ap- proach the fountain like a ship under full sail, and when he _now beheld her, col- lapsed and abeshed, he was filled with such humor that upon the spot he lau hed himself to deat'h.--Stuttgart, by. lsie A II._ 1..

A., have now played out their schedule of matches, and, as a consequence of Wednes- - day night s match between Barrie and Oril- lia, the result is a tie, each team having won _ two games. That match was the hardest fought and probably the best "played of the series, the teams having. to play one hour 4 and thirty minutes before the result of three goals to one in favor` of Barrie was known. The game `started o' decidedly in 0ril1ia s favor, but it was during the rst half they played fastest, and to an unbiased observer, their strength seemed to wane, while Barrie Club increased their pace. At the end of the first half 'Orillia had scored, and at the end of the hour Barrie had also scored. An extra ten minutes left the tie still standing, and so did the second extra ten, but the third ten was only two minutes spent when Barrie scored, and by the end of the time had scored a third time. The game all through was an excellent `exhibition of hockey, fouls and off-sides being very scarce, this giving the teams very few rests, and in this fact told in favor of Barrie. Referee Irish enjoyed the game immensely, and was always fair in his decisions. The umpires were Heber Phillips of Toronto and Walter Gow of` Osgoode Hall, Toronto. A new andgimportant feature in this game was that the umpires were enclosed in a wire cage, built purposely for them, which prevented any interference from the public. The teams were :- Orillia-Hanley, goal; Tait, point: Pace, cover-point; Curran, Newton, Connors, Blain, forwards. , ` ` "` ~--| . A_..b-II -unhnh o T_oir'mou.1. irzlr To IJIGIII `V.
