A Royal Lesson BEING the pet of the family, Prince E more of less spoiled as a child, and some interest- ing stories have been told concerning his wilfulness. In common with many other little boys, his Imperial | Highness had a rooted aversion to soap and water, | J and often refused pointblank to allow his nurses to | | wash his hands and face. One morning, to his unbounded delight, he was allowed to go out unwashed, and for a time he reveled in his freedom. Happening to pass the sentinel at the palace gates, he was surprised to find that the man did not salute. In high dudgeon, the young prince sought the Emperor and poured out his tale of woe, expecting to have the guard reprimanded. But, to his astonishment, the Kaiser merely said: “The soldier did quite right. Surely you do not expect him to salute a dirty boy.” The lesson had its effect, and henceforth the nurses experienced no trouble.—M. A.

NEW HAVEN man was praising the late Judge David Torrence, of Derby, Conn. “Judge Torrence,” he said, “uttered many an epigram from the bench. In a case concerning a noise nuisance a scientist was once testifying before him about the speed of sound. ‘ound,’ said the man, ‘travels at the rate of 40 yards a second.’ All sound ?" asked Judge Torrence. Il,’ replied the scientist “The judge smiled. ““T'm sure you're wrong,’ he said. ‘Ihave | noticed a great difference between the speed of certain kinds of sound. Thus, slander travels at the rate of quite 1,000 yards a second, flattery sco yards, while truth makes only a few feet a second, and, as its progress is, truth often fails to reach the goal, no matter how short the distance.’ —Indian- apolis Star. Punishment for Excessive Speed HERE, is one way, and only one way, declares the Ohio State Journal (Columbus), in which exceeding the speed limit car be stopped. It has been found impracticable to arrest and fine chauffeurs or oxtners, for fines are of little consequence to the most serious offenders. Other suggested remedies have likewise failed. But the one offered by this paper and others is thought to promise well. After calling attention to the difficulties hitherto en- countered in enforcing speed ordinances the article continues: There is a way out of this—a clean, clear, just way, and that is to ignore the personal issue altogether, and not to consider who is to blame or whom to fine; but just arrest the automobile, try it for plunging through the streets, reckless of life or limb, nd sentence it to the pound or garage for twenty or thirty days, at the expiration of which time the owner may go and release it by paying for the keep. There would be a great advantage in treating the matter thus. li would retieve the situation of any personal blame. Neither the chauffeur nor the owner would be held to personal account They could drop the matter and go about their business without feeling they have violated the law, for really the automobile is the guilty party, And whether it is or not ought to be a matter easily determined by a policeman of good common sense. ‘The efficacy of a penalty of this nature would be immeasurable. The indignity, the loss of liberty, and the excruciating confinement would be a sore trial to the poor automobile, and it would feel like never again violating the law or flying in the face of public sentiment ‘The only way then to treat this great menace to the peace and safety of a community is to institute proceedings ad rem and make the automobile itself feel the pain of its guilt. That would settle the matter. After a few pangs of conscience, the jig would be up.
