KING LUDWIG, of Bavaria, is said to dislike
women so intensely that he will allow them to
perform no service for him, even that of mend
ing his clothing-being an impecunious monarch,
he is sometimes forced to wear darned socks.
Evidently his Majesty is troubled with form
of the 'antipathy" which sflicts the truly orig
inal hero Of Oliver Wendell Holiness story now
running in the Atlantic Monthly. This unfor-
tunate young man faints and lies at the point of
death at the near approach of any blooming
young woman. There are indications, however,
that his is likely to be effected, on the prin-
ciple that like like, by the cautious intro
duction into his presence of certain peculiarly
attractive maiden. The chance that he may be
killed instead of cured by the experiment lends
somewhat novel interest to the tale but there is
sufficiently comfortable assurance in the
readers mind that the result will not be fatal to
prevent any serious anxiety. Friends of the
Bavarian King may CLEAN some facts from
Holiness method of treatment which will at
least mitigate the severity of his disease suff-
GENTLY to allow of the mending of his socks by
a member Of the darn-ing sex.

A New YORK jeweler has an order for neck
lace made of mummy eyes, taken from subjects
found in South America. When the old Peru
vians died and were mummifed, centuries be-
fore Pizarro's time the men who did the en-
balming had trouble in making the face look
natural. because the eyes disappeared. So they
took the eyes of kind of fish with long Latin
name, and used them instead. Tae eyes of the
dsh were spherical, and the Peruvians cut them
across tranversely. The exposed fat section
somewhat resembles in appearance the human
eye. These planed off eyes were dried and hard
ened, and were put in the mummy's eye sockets
Properly placed, they gave the mummy natural
air, and there was no necessity for closing the
eyelids Mummies are plenty in Peru, and the
eyes we're easily obtained. They are not pearly,
but shine with dull luster like an opal without
fire. The material looks like fine amber.

he was a tower of strength to the sec
ton in which he lived. He had lived
q life Of SO much usefulness. so full
of good deeds and charity, sc pure and
blameless that it was natural that he
should bear the respect and confidence
and affection Of all his neighbors and
friends.
He was, almost it may be said the ia
ther of the Savannah Valley Railroad.
He gave it impulse and shape, and la
bored increasingly for its welfare, spend
ing his time and his talents and means
for it, For some years he was Presi-
dent Of it. but in all capacities he was
its firm advocate and friend. 1t is pc
culiarly sad that Just as it is nearing it's
completion and he had the prospect Of
seeing and enjoying the early f~ruition
of his hopes, that he should be called
away.
Few men were better prepared to die
than he. Truly he walked with God /;
and however suddenly the dread mes
senger came, he found him ready to
journey with him upon that "bourne
whence no traveller e'er retnrns.n
