The human mind Is pOwcrless to

ed depths of every ocean would be

and yet. when all this has been ac'

After all these countless ages,

A Cure For Rheumatism,

A we'll known member OF the bee
keeping fraternity has been lecturing in
Northumberland on that particular form
Of small industry to which he has de-
voted himself, and in the curse Of his
address he dwelt not merel, on thefnan-
cial but the hygienic advantages of
bee culture. He informed his audience
that he was the father Of twelve chill
dren, all living, and ascribed this fact to
the liberal use Of honey as an article OF
diet, adding that he gets good deal more
money from the local doctor for honey
. than the doctor gets from him for medi.
! cine. ...r. ..tt
More than that, he has derived another
personal advantage from keeping bees
in his complete freedom from rheuma-
tism, from which he previously suffered,
and has no doubt that this pleasing i'm
munity is entirely due to the beneficial
influence of bee stings. We have heard
Of people hagellating themselves with
netfles, but the beauty Of the bee cure is
that there Is no necessity for any exer-
ton on the part Of the patient. West

Girls Who HypnotiZe.

Two pretty girls sat opposite me. at
luncheon the other day, two healthy,
hearty, rosy, daintily dressed creatures,
who are very pretty disciples Of Mesmer
and understand the force Of hypnotic
suggestion. When the meal was over
and we slipped our coffee in the drawing
room, these sisters gave an exhibition
of their powers quite terrible to see,
since some Of their Manifestations were
really inexplicable. They found and re-
placed in a selected spot in my head a
hairpin I had secreted between the leaves
of book, and they came and went from
wide eyed dreaminess to active intelli-
gence as easily as pass in and out a
door. They are two young English girls
who have made of mind reading and
mesmerism a study and livelihood.
They are the daughters Of clergyman,
we'll bred and refined, and receive so
much to come to luncheon and exhibit
their powers after. For compensation
they will put one into gentle mesmeric
trance that one may experience the
strange sensation, or they will use hyp-
motto influence on each other, and the
one under the spell will do all sorts Of
interesting things by her sisters silent

Princess and Shoemaker.

On one occasion at BournemOuth Prin'
cess Maud went into a shoe store and
purchased pair of rubbers, or, as the
English call them, "galoches.' The
storekeeper was little abrupt, and as
the rubbers were inexpensive hedeclined
to send them home. The princess ac-
cordingly carried the parcel herself, but
within a few minutes she was met by
one of her suit in search of her, and the
dismay Of the churlish tradesman when
he heard who his customer had been can
we'll be imagined. He had, however, the
cool impertinence to place the royal arms
with the crest of the Prince Of Wales
feathers above the shop window and in
scribed in large letters on the plate glass,
"Patronized by Her Royal Highnsss the
Princess Maud" This so disgusted her
little highness that she had a special in
junction served on the man, which re-
suited in his taking the arms, ETC., down.
