The dry cold weather of the
early winter months is productive
OF great deal of Group among
children. Mothers should be on
the lookout for it, and be prepared
TO arrest it as soon as the first
symptoms appear. True Group
never comes without a warning; a
day or two before the attack the
child will become hoarse, and that
symptom is soon followed by a
peculiar, rough cough. IfChamber-
lain's Cough Remedy is given as
soon as this hoarseDess or cough APP
pears, all danger and anxiety may
be avoided. 1t has never failed,
even in the most severe cases.
There is no danger in giving the
Remedy fer it contains no injurious

1t is a cause for comment that
there has been sudden falling of
in the number of visitors to Califor-
MIA this winter. Last year where
there were hundred of tourists,
this year there is scarcely one.
The reason for the change lies IN
the fact that California prices have
scared the provident easterner until
he is ready to exclaim "Dellver me
FROM the greed of Californians."
Real estate prices and hotel rates
in Southern California, where most
of the tourists went, were enough
to give them an attack of Gts, and
when they went back to their homes
in the east they advised their friends
not to tackle California, if they
valued their lives.

A EeInarkahlA Rock

Professor Henry Beals, fellow of the
Royal Society of London, has been making q
special search for rocking stones" His
journeynIgs have been very successful His
search for rocking stones" has been made in
conjunction with geologists on the Continent,
who are seeking TO establish beyond contro-
versy the theory that these great rocks and
curiously balanced stones, which in many in
stances are as large as a small house, were
carried on floating icebergs during tho mys-
terious era known Us the glacial period OF
the rocking stones he has discovered but one
new example in addition to that already
known. This is at Noank, on the farm of
Caleb Haley, a New York fish dealer.
This stone is estimated to weigh twenty-five
tons. 1t has n rocking scope of six inches
and can be readily moved by the hand Only
one other stonc is known of in New England
that Lanesborough, Mass A photograph has
been taken of Mohegan Rock, also known as
Shehagan, in the town of MontviIle This
rock was used fortress and watch tower
by the Mohegan Indians. 1t is now known
to be the largest specimen of erratic bowlder
in this country thus far discovered. 1t Is
forty-five feet high and seventy feet long,
and is calculated by scientists to weigh 10000
tons, an enormous load for a foe of ice to
carry. 1t is evidenced by the large flakes of
the stone which the insinuating frost and
storms Of centuries have Clipped from 1t.
One OF these fragments is sixty feet long and
twelve feet thick, and its estimated weight Is

THE TOILET OF DEATH.
Preparing French Criminals for the Fal
of the Guillotino's Knife.


of the Guillotino's Knife.
Toward 4 or O'Clock, when everything is
ready outside, the warden of the prison, ac-
companied by several officials, goes to the
condemned mans cell, and, shaking him by
the shoulder, announces that his demand for
pardon has been rejected, says Paris let
ter, AS soon as the prisoner has dressed him
self he is, if he so desires, left alone with the
chaplain for few moments; afterward he is
led to the toilet room. First, his shirt collar
is cut away sufficiently to allow the guillotine
knife to fall upon his bare neck then he is
fastened with a cord starting from the shoul-
ders and connecting with another cord that
binds the two wrists a third cord goes from
the wrist to the knees, where it is Joined to
another cord already passed around the legs
Thus strapped the culprit is obliged to
march as straight as an [, with his head
thrown back. When the preparations are
ended the procession starts for the guillo
tine, tho prisoner being supported by two of
the headNnan's aids and accompanied by the
executioner, the chaplain and the other off
cials. The huge prison doors are thrown
open and the first object the condemned man
sees is tho black trapeZiform knife, which,
contrary to the general impression, is not
concealed from his gaze The distance from
the door to the gullotine is scarcely twenty
steps, and as soon as the criminal reaches the
swinging board the chaplain quits him, the
cxccutioner seizes him and pushes him on to
the bascule. Panl PAM click and thud
the fall of the knife, the heavy sound of
the body falling into the brand box. The
movements are almost simultaneous: The
knife falls The criminal disappears
As soon as the ceremony is over the body is
placed in a wagon and conveyed to Ivey
cemetery, where it is buried iii the turnip
field When the parents reclaim the body
and it is inferred in another part of the GENE
terry no name is ever put upon the headstone,
IN order not to excite public curiosity. When
the body is not reclaimed the project of
police authorizes the faculty of medicine to
take it. Strictly speaking, the corpse ought
not to be delivered TO the faculty until after
twenty-four hours, this delay being accorded
to the family to make its demand; but the
custom is to give up the body Immediately
after simulated burial when the authorities
are certain that it will not be reclaimed
During the whole of this lugubrious cere-
mony the chief executioner never touches the
victim. The toilet and all the operations
that require contact with his person are per-
formed by the aids.-Paris Letter.
