| She Plays Upon Sentimental Wonfanss
| Heartstrings to the Tune of 1000 Francs.
A very curious case of witchcraft,
which carries US back to the middle ages,
has just been examined by the correc-
tional appeal court a middle aged Ia
dy, AZ years of age, living at Fontaine-
bleau-Mlle. Bauchet-wished to know
whether her lover, a handsome soldier,
would ever return, so she went to con-
suit Nine. Bretheaux That reputed
| witch Immediately announced to her
client that she had been placed under q
spell, and that it was urgent to remove
it. To accomplish this 81 francs 80 cen.
times, sheet and chemise were nee.
essary. The money and the articles were
brought the next day by Mile. Bauchet.
Nine days later Nine. Bretheaux said
that she had removed the spell which
had been thrown on Mile. Bauchet, but
she had discovered that the witches of
the country in which her lover was liv.
ing had thrown spell on him The
witch" declared she would succeed in
saving him, but to do so she wanted 1871
francs and a dozen linen pocket hand
kerchiefs.
A few days later the ingenious cheat
succeeded in getting her victim to give
her an additional sum of 500 francs on
the pretext that she had been obliged to
burn a gold crucifx at the shrine of the
Virgin. and that she must go on with
her incantations if the soldiers life was
to be saved 1t was not till some time
after this-after Nine Bretheaux had
swindled her of 975 francs so confines,
to say nothing of the sheet, handker-
chiefs, etc. that the confiding victim
related her adventure to less credulous
friend and at length discovered she had
been swindled. The case was tried at
Fontainebleau, where Nine. Bretheaux
was condemned to three months impris-
onment. The appeal court confirmed the
sentence. Paris Correspondent

AN OLD LADYs PROPHECY.

The Seventeen Year Locusts and Boy Babie,

of the Hudson river cities recently. She
was in her ninety third year and was

ported that farmers in the vicinity OF

II year locusts in the grub form, the
first appearance Of these insects, it was
stated, since 1877 Giving her speota-
cles little nudge, the old lady looked
up from her paper and exclaimed:
''Herel That means warl In 1860 focks
of these locusts-great big, clumsy things
were found all over the country, and
on the wing Of every one of them coulf
be plainly seen the letter W. The grea
war of the rebellion followed / tell
you We'll have war either here or il

Another sure sign she added, SIS
the fact that all the babies this year are

was little girl that in the days Of

was always plainly indicated by the
great birth rate of male children. Look

In Canada perhaps 10000 women wear
trousers during the winter-of course

ularity of the masculine garment is
growing with remarkable rapidity. Tha
trousers are now and have been for years
in use for horseback riding. The fencing

the fashionable boarding schools for la
dies trousers are worn exclusively and
with excellent effect and comfort. In
Europe for the past two years Turkish
trousers have been worn by fashionable
women for climbing the mountains. The
same are worn in the Scotch highlands
by English women. The bathing dress

During the past year the Chris
tian Endeavor movement in Eng

publish portions of the Christian
Endeavor literature in the Welsh
language.
The famous author, Rev. Josiah
