Qreat World War la Alleged to Be Re-
sponsible for the Collapse of
Her Throne.
One highly significant personage
has quietly disappeared from public
\ iew in the course of the war—a very
great and powerful ladv who, though
a commoner in name, style and title,
exercised a moro royal sway upon
our lives and our opinions not long
finee, says the London Gentlewoman.
True, her dictates and rulings had,
of lati years, become of lessened re-
gard, and her pertinacious author-
ity had met with some ridicule in-
stead of the almost universal rev-
erence of former days; still this si-
lent resignation, this complete re-
tirement from the arena, is surpris-
ing, and more surprising still is the
fact that nobody seems to have noted
it. Can it be that Airs. Grundy is
definitely defunct? In the strictest
confidence, almost in a whisper, let
us agree that she has had a long
inning, and that we will try to man-
age to get along as best we may with-
out her.
With womankind working in male
attire, and doing all sorts of things
of the most ungrundified descrip-
tion; with a sort of grownup feeling
that we can manage our own lives by
the light of our own good sense and
good taste, and with a profound con-
vietion that the future must be bet-
ter than the past, let us trust that
she has gone and left no issue.

OLDEST EUROPEAN ROYALTY.
Though the late Emperor Francis
Joseph was the oldest reigning sov-
ereign in Europe, he was not the
oldest royalty, says London Tit-Bits.'
The Empress Eugenie s four years]
older, while the dowager grand
duchess of Mecklenburg-Strelit/, the
grandmother of the grand duke, was
eight years older. Thus the last snr-
iving grandchild of George III was
the oldest royalty in Europe, the
elder sister of the late duke of Cam-
' ridge, and consequently the aunt of
','tieeu Alary of England. It was on
■ I tine 28, 1843, that her niarriago
took place at Buckingham palace.
>he received an annuity of ? 15,000 a
year from the British exchequer,
which, being paid since for the period
<>f 13 years, would amount to tht
tidy sum of $1,095,000. But when'
the war broke out it was announced
that the annuity, as the lady wn« liv-j
ing in Germany, would be stopped. '

is fhe True Test
Of Cheapness!
Price can ofter be used as a strong argument in
in some lines of business, because a cheaper
grade often answers the purpose of the customer.
But in the drug businesss it is different. Cheap
drugs will never take the place of pure high-
grade ones. Quality—regardless of price—should
be thl chief co> -ideration of careful drug buyers.
What you buy here in the line of drugs and
medicines will be of right quality, and the price
asked wil' be right, too.
Right goods, right service and right prices are
usually closely associated. Come here for Drugs
and Sundries.
