in Richard III. Keene is very popular
with those who love the drama as origin

Keene is following fast in the footsteps of
Booth and he interprets the master with
an Interpretation equal to Booth in more
instances than one. Richard HIP will be

self, that he can discover the difference in
their ages. 1t can be done by the following
ingenious rule: Let the younger take as
many mines as there are figures in the num-
Der representing his age and, from the num-
Der thus formed, subtract his age He
should then ask the older person to add
this difference to his own age, then to take
away the first figure of the amount and add
it to the last figure. The result will be the
difference in their ages.
Suppose Harry, IL years old, tries it with
his Uncle John
There being two figures in IL, Harry starts
with SO, from which IL being taken there re-
mains g.
Supposing that Uncle John is 40, and fig
ures honestly he will calculate as follows:
DO added to 81 equals 127 Removing the left
hand figure, L, and adding it to the last fig
ure, z, the result is 28-the difference in their
ages. If to 90 is added II, Harry's age, we
have 40, the age of the older person.

Contagious Blood Poison

is the constitutional blood disease which
has for several centuries past been infest-
ing mankind with it's annoying features
and destructive results, and is now the
great bane of the human race. This is
the worst of all blood contagion, as the
horrible poison is transmitted from one
generation to the next, and even the
third and fourth. We do not hon.
estlv believe that the terrible scourge
has ever been cured and thoroughly
eradicated from the human body by any
other remedy than SWift's Specific, and
we further say that Swift's Specific has
never been known to fail to make per-
msnent cure in any case when it has
been taken before eny of the vital or
gans had become so impaired as to rem
der cure impossible.
Swift's Specific entirely cured me of
a severe case of blood poison which OBJ
stinately resisted and refused to be
cured for over 26 years. The regular
medical remedies of mercury and pot
ash only added fuel to the flame. suf-

''She is the best girl in the worldI' said

'Oh, am afraid to think of that" re-
turned Mrs. Nolen, pressing her white
hands nervously together. ''It is so easy
for girl to make mistakes and for her
mistake would be fatal!'

generally the bulk of the money, goes to
the first born; the other boys get posi-

service or the church They are seldom
fitted to enter the learned professions,
and it is not considered good form for a
gentlemans son to go into trade. Of
course the army and the church don't
afford accommodation for all applicants,
and the consequence is that every year a
number of young Englishmen are thrown

Germany Annexes Our Flag.

The Germans, who are annexing
everything, have now laid their hands
upon the American flag. The origin of
the famous "Stars and Stripes' has been
the subject of many contradictory leg
ends, all of which, says one, must GER
tainly be untrue, and every American
has hitherto been free to accept which
of the variations he pleased as the one
true history. German historical criti-
cism," however, has busted itself with
the examination Of all these legends, as
with the Book of Genesis and the
Psalms Of David; and it has not only
discovered them all to be devoid In au-
thenticity but has RECONSTRUCTED" the
historical fact. The "Stars and Stripes
was the invention of German woman,
the wife of a German farmer in Penn
sylvania. She made the first pattern
of the United States banner, and sent II
to the Governor of the State. He was
delighted with it, and forwarded 1t to
the Congress, and that august body
adopted it with enthusiasm as the ma
tional flag.
