gagged himself to Miss Edith Speers, Of
that city. Miss Speers followed him
here with the intention Of battling the
efforts OF his relative to put him in an

edged his mental weakness and Miss
Speers consented to his confinement.
Saturday, however she swore out q
writ OF habeas corpus, alleging that
Ransley has recovered his senses.
Miss Speer has been In this city ever
since her lover was committed. She has
visited the asylum several times and Is
now firm IN the belief that Mr.. Ransley
has recovered his normal condition Of
mind. A few days ago G. w. Baker,
counsel for Miss Speer, received letter
firm Mr.. Ransley begging that he be re-
stored to liberty. This nerved Miss
Speer to make another attempt The
superintendent and directors of the asy-
lum have been made parties defendant.

FROM NATURES sToREHoUsE.

II stands to reason that a medicine
which will destroy the germs of conta.
gious blood poison and counteract the ef-
fecis of mercurial poisoning may be de-
pended on to overcome the diseases that
have their origin in malaria or that have
their seat in an impure condition of
the blood. This is what S. S. S. has done
and what it will do, as its popularity at.
tests. As a preventive and remedy for
the long list of affections that display
their activity during the spripg and sum-
mer months, 1t stands without rival.
The secret of this is that 1t IS q remedy

GOOD SKATING ICE.
What Kind is the Best, Where 1t is FoAnd
and Which is Safest.

What Kind is the Best, Where 1t is Fodnd
and Which is Safest.
''What is the best kind to skate On?"
was asked of Champion Figure Skater
Bacon the other day.
Gas nearly as l can describe it, was
the reply, cit is the kind which appears
to be blackish green in color, and yet is
very clear. This ice is always intensely
hard and solid, and is as smooth as
glass. This kind of ice is only pro-
duced, I have noticed, after a very Sc
we're frost, when there has been no snow
or wind. We don't get much of this
right around here, but it is common in
Maine. / consider this ice to be the
very best for the use of expert skaters,
but a kind less smooth and hard is bet
ter for beginner who has not yet Sc
cured full command over his skates"
''What other kind is there which the
skaters like?''
''There is kind known as greasy
ice, which is frozen at comparatively
higher temperature than the other [
mentioned. This is very good for skat-
ing. Then there is snow ice, which is
full of flakes, hollows and air bubbles.
This kind is very treacherous, and
should be at least two inches thick be-
fore it may be considered safe for skat-
ing, and then only while the process of
freezing is still going on. What makes
this especially dangerous is that it
breaks up without giving any warning,
as the clear, darl1-colored ice always
does. The air bubbles are to blame for
this.
''How can you tell when the ice is
dangerous; that is about to break up?"
''Pure ice, unmixed with snow, al
ways gives plain warning before y
breaks up. Bending ice is not danger
GUS as long as the cracks in it are few
and far between, although they may be
of considerable length. But when these
principal cracks begin to be joined by
others which intersect and bisect, then
look out. Water will bubble up through
these cracks, small pieces will rush
through, and wheeling, creaking noises
will be heard, caused by the broken
edges grating together. That is the
final warning of breaking up, and the
danger is imminent. Snow ice is vastly
more treacherous, notwithstanding the
fact that it may be considerably thicker
than the hard clear ice.'
SIN what places doyou generally first
find good, safe ice?"
always on marshy fields which are
protected from the wind, and where the
water is only a few inches deep. Ice
will be found in such places before there
is a sign of it on deep moving water."-

Couldn't Stand the Odor.

A very amusing story was told about
Chancellor Bismarck by Earl Russell.
The incident occurred at Versailles
during the war of 1870. Lord Russell
was to have an audience, and he was
waiting for Count Won Arnim to leave
Bismarck's study. Presently Won Arnim
came out, tanning himself furiously with
his handkerchief.
81 really can not understand" he said,
show Bismarck can live in such an at
mosphere; he is continually smoking,
and the strongest cigars, too. I had to
ask him to open the window, for l could
not stand it.
Then he took leave of Lord Russell
and went his way. AS soon as Lord
Russell entered the room Bismarck said
to him:
"What strange tastes some people
have! There is Won Arnlm, now, who
has just gone out of the room; it is fad
of his to scent himself up to an unbear-
able degree, and to-day the perfume was
SO intense that had to open the win

A Cruel Christmas Time Which Tradition
Sanctions in Germany.

Sanctions in Germany.
There is queer old custom in some
parts of Germany and Austro-H Hungary
which are distant from the centers of
civilization. It is a cruel custom, too,
but sanctioned by tradition which
comes down from the days of myth and
fable. ST. Nicholas day, which comes
on the 9th of December is observed
much as we observe Christmas. Stock
ings are pinned up the night before and
are filed with candies and nuts and the
square or heart-shaped cakes which are
always associated with st. Nicholas day
in German childs mind
But the day has it's drawback 'Be
good or the Habergais will come" is a
threat that never fails to inspire terror
to the infant mind, and with good rea-
son, for the Habergais does come, and
ST. Nicholas day is the time for his ap-
pearance. An unearthly monster is
rugged up in the form of a goat with the
aid of sheets and poles and a man inside
for locomotion. The "Habergais' looks
more like ghostly giraffe than a goat;
however, it's goat in the legend. Ac-
companied by the bishop and the devil
close behind tour of the village is
