Times When the Sun Failed.

The ancient historians mention seV.
eral instances of the SUN "going out"
or failing to shine and give forth its
usual amount of heat and light for
periods of time varying in length from
three hours to several months. Ac-
cording to Plutarch the year Al B. G.
was one in which the sun was "weak
and pale" for period approxlmatlng
eleven months.
The Portuguese historians record
"seyeral months of diminished SUM-
light in the year 934 A. D., and, ac-
ccrding to Humboldt, this uncanny
period ended with ''strange and start
ling sky phenomena, such as loud at
unospheric explosions, riffs in the
vallted canopy of the blue above and
in divers other rare and unaccountable
freaks" In the year 1901, on Sep.
tember Doth (See Humboldt's "Cos-;
mos'0, the sun turned suddenly,
black and remained SO for three
hours. and did not regain its normal
condition for several days. Accord
ing to the noted Helmuth's "Solar
Energy" the days of seeming inactiv-
ity on the part of the sun (the days
following the sudden blackening of
the great orb) were noted for apeculiar
greenish tinge, and are marked in old
Spanish. French and italian records
as "the days of the green sum-" Feb
ruary, 1106, A. D., is noted in the an
nails of marvellous phenomena as q
month in which there were several
days that "the sun appeared dead and
black, like a great circular cinder
floating in the sky"
"On the last day of February, 1906"
says Cortvza, an old Spanish writer
on astronomy, astrology and kindred
subjects, "the sun appeared to 60
suddenly out, causing a darkness over
the country for about six hours" In
1241 the European countries expert
enced another siege of supernatural
darkness which the superstitious
writer's of that time attributed to

to the bottom of the bodice, is wide

The depth of water has considerable
effect upon a vessels speed, shoal
water retarding her. In some ships,

shoal water, the stern, or after.part,

This is caused by the water not filing

water at the stern causes the ship to
settle there and be pursued by huge
wave. In one of our small, very fast
ships this settling, or "squatting," as
it is usually called, was so marked
that the crest of the following wave
actually boiled over the stern and
broke upon the deck, and in some

BULLET FAILED.
Our Sympathies Always Enlisted in tho

Our Sympathies Always Enlisted in tho
Infrlnities of the Veteran.
(From the Herald, Woodstock, Vd.)
There is an old soldier in Woodstock, Va,
who served in the war with Mexico and in
the war OF the rebellion, Mr.. Levi McInturf.
He passed through both these wars without
serious wound. The hardships, however,
told seriously on him, for when the grip at
tackled him four years ago it nearly killed
him. Who can look upon the inflrmities OF
veteran without a feeling Of the deepest
sympathy His townspeople saw him con-
fined to his house so prostrated with great
nervousness that he could not hold knife
and fork at the table, scarcely able to walk,
too. and as he attempted it. he often Stun
bled and fell. They saw him treated by the
best talent to be had-but still he suffered on
for four years, and gave up finally in despair.
One day, however, he was struck by the ac-
count OF a cure which had been affected by
the use Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills. He i'm
mediately ordered box and commenced tax
ing them. He says he was greatly relieved
within three days time. The blood found its
way to his fingers, and his hands, which had
been palsied, assumed natural color, and
he was soon enabled to use his knife and fork
at the table. He has recovered his strength
to such an extent that he is able to chop
wood, shock corn and do his regular work
about his home. He now says he can not
only walk to Woodstock, but can walk across
the mountains. He is able to lift up fifty
two pound weight with one hand and says he
does not know what DIR. Williams Pink Pills
have done for others, but knows that they
have done great work for him.
Ee was in town last Monday, court day,
and was loud in his praise Of the medicine
that had given him so great relief. He pur-
chased another box and took it home with
him. ID. McInturff is willing TO make afi.
dsvit to these facts.
The proprietors of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
state that they are not patent medicine, but
prescription used for many years by an en-
inent practitioner, who produced the most
wonderful results with them, curing all forms
of weakness arising from watery condition
of the blood or shattered nerves, two fruitful
causee Of almost every ill to which flesh is
heir. The pills are also a specific for the
trouble peculiar to females, such as suppress
sions. all forms Of weakness, chronic consti
patton, bearing down pains. etc., and in the
case of men will give speedy relief and effect
q permanent cure in all cases arising from
mental worry, overwork or excesses of what
ever nature. They are entirely harmless and
can be given to weak and sickly children
with the greatest good and without the
slightest danger. Pink Pills are sold by all
dealers, or will be sent postpaid on receipt OF
price (50c. a box or six boxes for S2.5C-they
are never sold in bulk or by the 100) by ad-

Spring hats are made of rough
straw, or a mixture of straw and felt
braid. Velvet bonnets and hats will
be worn until late in the season, and
there are some extremely pretty
shirred bonnets end hats of thick,
gauzy stuff in spring colors, with
spring blossoms and twigs for trim
ming. Turban shapes are popular,
and some of the new models have
brims in coronet effect. This style
that is always liked, as it is becoming
to very many persons. The Mary
Stuart shape and the close-ftting bon
net that has not been out of fashion
for the last quarter of q century, are
among the standard imports in this
line.
A great deal of ribbon will be used
as trimming and velvet in profusion.
Rosettes are still worn, but are less
fashionable than loops of soft, puffy
effects. A new model has a scarf of
bias velvet tied in large single knot.
This is attached to one side OF the bon
net, which is small poke, and under
meath this knot are the stems OF three
: long plumes. These curl up over the
top of the bonnet, and the scarf is
twisted in q soft roll and passes over
the edges in front of the crown.
There is a pronounced line between
crown and brim on some Of the new
bonnets, and this is thought to be the
forerunner of the old-time style with
haring front, prominent crown and
ruf1led curtain.
For children, the sailor hat is the
accepted style for ordinary wear, and
may also be worn for best, but for the
finest hats it is often the case that the
brims are rolled and pinched in vari-
GUS waEs, with trimming of bows,
loops, rosettes, plumes and aigrettes.
For best, there are little bonnets of
soft silk with box-plaited fronts and
soft crowns.
Side combs are very stylish and
grow more and more elaborate. They
are now made so that the top stands
out from the head, instead of lying
close; they are fligreed and jeweled,
and in some instances have fringes of
jeweled white hanging from them.

Why She Never Married.

When man tempts fate by remind
ing spinster of her condition, his
punishment is generally swift and
sure. In county of Ireland where
the Quakers are numerous the entire
body on one occasion gathered to-
gether for one of their quarterly
meetings.
After the exercises of the morning a
public luncheon was held, at which
all the Friends attended. The CONVEX
sation turned to matrimony.
"Bridget, said an unmannerly
youthful member of the society,
speaking across the crowded table to
prim, elderly maiden lady, "wilt
thou tell me why thou hast never
married9"
"Certainly, friend William" re-
sponded the ready Bridget, in voice
audible over the ROOM. st'Tis be-
cause I am not so aisy pleased as thy
wife was. "-Tit-Bits.
