A Profitable Dream. F.

Tunis must be capital place for
those who live and thrive on the credul-
ity of their fellowmen. 1t is said that
lady there recently announced that
she had a dream, which she considered
as a Divine revelation, that who ever
drank the water of her cistern would
not be liable to take the cholera, and
she offered to furnish the water at a
penny drink. The people thronged
to taste the water, and in two days
more than twenty thousand persons
had paid their pennies, and imagined
that they had obtained immunity from
the dread disease.

EIRsT OF AooEgo ANIMALS

Supposed to Have Lived on Western Prai-
rIes 100000 Years Ago.
In the rooms of Prof. Z. d. Cope, at
Philadelphia. the person fortunate
enough to gain admission, says the ST.
Louis Republic, may see the creature
which all naturalists are unanimous in
pronouncing the first representative
of the hoofed-animal species. The an
imal is not alive, neither is it entire so
far as flesh and blood are concerned,
only for the fossiled bones, the speci-
men is perfect. It is not larger than
a yearling calf, and not nearly so tall,
and was found in the Wind river coun-
try in Wyoming. Prof. Cope named it
Thenacodus primDvus when it was
first discovered, giving it as his opin-
ion that it was akin to n specimen
which was found several years ago in
France (the paleothcrium1. and which
gave Cuvier and the other naturalists
so much trouble to classify. At the
time of the discovery of the French
specimen the savants of Europe decided
that it was the ancestor of ''hoofed
critters but the Wind river fossil,
which is easily distinguished as being
n type of the same, is believed to be
much more, ancient. Cope's curiosity
was found in rocks belonging to the
eocene period and the time when it
grazed on the western prairies has been
placed as far back as five hundred
thousand years. Every bone is perfect
and in place, and the specimen could
not be purchased for ten thousand dol
lars. 4

DRAWING ROOM KICKS.

The Limit Set on the Number of Presents
tions to the Queen Has Raised Racket.
Aristocratic and fashionable people are
said to.be in a.state Of hysterical indig
nation over the official announcement
that only 200 presentations will be made
at each of the two drawing rooms held
by the queen this month. Such an arbi-
trary limitation is declared to be with
out precedent, ungenerous, despotic, I'M
just and what not, and it is suggested
that Lord Darlington, Liberal lord
chamberlain, in enforcing such an arbi-
trary rule is acting in the interests of
his party in the hope of stirring up
strife against the court as well as against
the house of lords"
1t is needless to say that his lordship
is quite innocent of any such dark de-
sign and is in no way responsible for the
obnoxious regulation, which is due to
the queens own orders. A drawing room
is certainly very fatiguing ceremony
for the aged sovereign, and one can I'M
derstand and sympathize with her anx-
iety to Limit the number of presentations,
but the change has been made SO sud-
denly that, according to the aristocratic
grumblers, it will entail heavy losses
upon families who had already prepared
to present their daughters by taking town
houses, ordering dresses, etc. Now they
learn that the lord chamberlain lists are
full, and that they will have to wait for
months and possibly whole year.-New

ROYALTY AND POLITICS.
Some Features of the Coburg Wedding With
More Than Personal Significance.

Some Features ofthe Coburg Wedding With
More Than Personal Significance.
The personal affairs of sovereigns and
princes continue to engross large share
of Europe's attention. The Coburg we'd
ding was the elimination of a carefully
arranged series of festivities in which
representatives of nearly all the royal
families of Europe took part. Perhaps
it is more correct to say that the news
which the German emperor disclosed
with unconcealed delight after the Co
burg ceremony was the real climax of
recent personal and political events in
royal circles.
The betrothal Of the czarowitz and
Princess Alix of Hesse is undoubtedly an
event of the first Importance in the de-
velopment of the European political sit
uation. 1t comprises another triple ALI
ance between England, Germany and
Russia, which may prove only less strong
than political bonds ratified by treaty.
The news is received with chagrin and
disappointment only in France.
One feature of the Coburg wedding at
tracts political attention-namely, the
absence of Prince Ferdinand This is all
the more marked because the prince was
in German territory at the time. The
fact indicates that the car is still i'm
placable, and that he refuses to recognize
the present status Of Bulgaria, and de-
clined to allow his relatives to attend the
ceremony in company with the usurper.

not to cook the ham.
One spring morning farmer knocks
at the kitchen door of a city house, with a
basket Of freshly laid eggs for sale. The
mistress expresses delight at obtaining
them, declaring, however, that it is her
invariable custom to pay for articles aft
or they have appeared on her table and
then only such price as she thinks fit.
Expecting an early settlement under
those conditions and being in need of
cash for the interest ON the mortgage ON

terms and departs Week after week
and month after month go by, but no

he calls at the house to inquire, the
maid informs him that her mistress bids

use of the eggs, but that she hopes very
soon to find place for them on her
menu. In the autumn the farmer is sur
prised to have the maid hand him the
basket, saying that as the eggs have
lost their freshness and are UNBEATABLE

for the opportunity for purchasing and

When any cleaning or sweeping is in

be allowed to hang in the air until the

return. Heavy hangings will absorb the
odor from cigar smoke or from any food

care should therefore be taken that they
