GUS piece of workmanship in the form
of skull is the property of the Dick
Lauder family. 1t was originally the
property of Mary, Queen of Scots, and
was bequeathed to Mary Setoun, her
maid of honor, February 7, 1857. On
the forehead of the skull are the SYM
bols of death, the scythe and the hour
glass. At the back of the skull is Time
and at the top of the head is the Garden
OF Eden and the crucifxion. The watch
is open by reversing the skull. Inside
are the holy family, angels and shep-
herds with their focks. The works
form the brains. The dial plate is the
palate. Another skull shaped watch
which belonged to Mary was a gift
from her husband, Francis III. Arnold

She entered Ninth ward drug store

directory lay with the easy Indifference
that only woman can assume when
she goes shopping with no intention of
buying anything. She was young and
pretty and well dressed, and as the po-
lite clerk looked up and noticed that
her gloved fingers rather fumbled with

counter and proffered his assistant ce

al Military Park Commission.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., August Z, 1895.
1t appears from numerous letters by
this Commission that its previous cir.
cular in regard to furnishing quarters
in camp barracks has been construed
to mean that such barracks will be
erected without regard to the orders
received, and that those desiring these
quarters can obtain them upon their
arrival at Chattanooga. This, however,
is not the case.
Congress made no appropriation for
Tree quarters, a plan was devised by
winch barracks accommodation could
be provided by the Citizens Committee
OF Chattanooga at very low rate for
all who might order such sufficient
time in advance. 1t is the intention to
extend barracks as orders for accom-.
modatlons are received. Such accom-.
modations can not be provided under
applications received after August 80,
1895.
Those who send two dollars to Cap.
tain Charles F. Muller, Chattanooga,
Tennessee, will receive in return a
ticket which will entitle the holder to
comfortable barrack bunk for the
entire time of his stay at Chattanooga,
including safe storage for hand baggage
and toilet accommodations. 1t will
be necessary for each person to bring
his own blanket and towels. The bar
racks will be constructed upon the
plan adopted at the last Grand Army
Encampment at Washington City,
where a very large number of veterans
were thus housed. Such structures
will be erected in Chattanooga where,
within convenient distances, meals and
lunches may be obtained at reasonable
prices.
Communications in regard to bar.
racks addressed to Captain Muller, who
was selected by the Citizens Com
mittee to take charge of this work, will
receive prompt and reliable attention.
The indications of very large at.
tendance at the dedication are such as
to lead this Commission to urge that
all contemplating attendance make
arrangements in advance for quarters.
A Citizens Executive Committee, of
which Captain Fl. S. Cham berlain is
Chairman is now canvassing the city
OF Chattanooga to find quarters in pri-
vate families for those who desire such
accommodations. Full information
may be obtained by addressing that
Committee, and assurances have been
given that rates will be reasonable.

Hard Times for Hired Girls,

In olden times domestic servants were
practically slaves and could be bought,
sold or even killed at the will of the
mistress. Frequent instances are given
by old writers of their having been i'm
prisoned in iron fetters and scourged to
death for the most trivial offenses.
Besides this in those days the rather
humiliating name given to domestics
in Anglo-Saxon was "halfcetan, d" or
loaf eater, which proves that even then
their food was more or less begrudged
to them.
During the middle ages the lot of
house servants had considerably i'm
proved. They were, comparatively
speaking, quite well fed, but at all
periods the sleeping accommodation left
much to be desired.
1t was customary for them to sleep
on bags of straw laid on the benches
and tables of the great hall.
Even so late as the reign of Eliza
beth in England they lay on pallets of
straw covered by sheet, with good
round log instead of pillow.
An old chronicler says, "As for SER
wants, if they had any sheet above
them it was we'll, for seldom had they
any under their bodies to keep them
from the pricking straws that ran thro'
the canvas of the pallet and raised
their hardened hides. Vogue.

Historic Timekeepers,

Mary of Scotland had her watches.
In those days there was great variety
in the shape of the watch. A favorite
shape was that of a skull; another was
that of coffin. Descriptions exist of
several of Mary's crystal case. There
was one coffin shaped in which cat gut
supplied the place of the interior chain
in the modern watch. One very marvel
