duke of York, who became king as James

-Four months before she had tipped the
scales at ll3, and she remarked that she

SO myself, for she insisted on holding a
satchel and an umbrella. but to my sur

After roundly berating me, the scales

she flounced but and lost good Gus

Is to the good, as in the case of stout
woman, who found she had lost three
pounds and was so tlcklod that she imme-
diately ordered barrel Of -four and said
she would call TO bo weighed again in a

The account of the origin of the Chicago
fire which attributes the starting of Ii TO
the kick of Mrs. o 'Leary's cow Is exactly
correct. The writer happened To bo among
the early arrivals ut the fire while 1t was
whetting its appetite on the little cottages
of Mrs. OLeary's neighbors, and a few
days after strolled over there to determine
exactly the place of starting. BY accident
rather than design Mrs. O'Leary herself
was encountered. She was modest wom-
an, who sought no notoriety, but told her
story simply. There was nothing remark
able in the facts, only In the results. Chi
cago had good many more milk cows
then than now, although the present num-
Der Is much larger than Is generally sup
posed. Ii was matter of economy in the
case OF the O'Lcarys. The open prairie
near by offered free pasturago, except the
slight cost OF herding, shared between the
different owners of tho herd. Not infrc-
quently the milking was postponed, from
one cause or another, until evening and
