A valuable feature of the nrst Of these two
volumes Is tho clcarncss with which the author
brings out the nature of the powers lodged in
Lord Baltimore as Lord Proprietor OF Maryland.
The model for the political organization of this
colony was supplied by the great northern
bishopric of Durham, which, by the end of the
sixteenth century, was the only complete In
stance loft in England OF a palatinate. or king
dom within the kingdom. At the time when
Lord Baltimore's charter was issued 1892, the
bonds of connection between Durham and the
rest of England were three: First, tho Bishop
was O tenant in capife of the Crown, besides
being an officer of tho Church and a men,
Der of tho House of Lords: secondly. tho
Council regularly paid its share of tho ma
tionai taxes; thirdly. cases in litigation between
tho Bishop and his subjects could be appealed
to the Court of Excheouer in London. Saving
these important limitations. Durham was indie
pendent. Tho only way in which the Kinp
could act within its limits was by addressing
the Bishop, who, by way of climax to his many

A pipe made out of a seals tusk was
g. at the Weare Office recently. The
stem is nearly foot long and is

Tho artist was an Indian, and the
little sketches in India ink show up
very well against the ivory background.
There is q reindeer about to fall un-

Another ornament Of the same char

lineations of other Alaskan scenes, with
the fox and the white polar bear in evi-

the latter.

If an account of the shocking gun
shot accidents were kept every day
during the hunting season, a large
volume would be filed. Ga the day
of the unfortunate gun shot accident
at East Salem, Juniata county, No
vember Sth, there were other shoot
ing accidents. At Shenandoah VIM
Smith aged % years died of lock jaw
caused by revolver shot through
his right hand. At Po:tstown, Pa,
on the same day Hazekiah Carson,
died from the effects of a gun shot
wound, he WAS eyed 70 years. At
Ephrata, Lancaster county, Jacob
Adams aged 20 years, accidentally
shot off his chin and greater part Of
his face; he had the stock of his gun
resting on the ground and by some
means it was discharged. On the
same day Samuel Hoover and Elijah
Hessler of Reading, went hunting,
while walking in the road toward the
hunting ground, Hessler's gun was
discharged. He Was carrying it un
der his arm. Hoover was few feet
in advance of ifessler. The contents
OF the gun passes! through Hoover's
body. He lived only short time.
Hessler is almost frantic with grief.

OLD BARRIERS AXE SCARCE.

After Reaching 20 They Usually Retiss
or Enter Another Occupation.
Ibid You ever notice, " said veterx1
tonsorial artist, who had shaved New
Haveners since 1878, to New Maven
Register man. "that you only see few
old barbers?''
why is it?''
There are a good many reasons, -
answered the veteran knight Of thu
blade. II suppose the chief one is that
a barber's hand becomes unsteady after
he gets to be about 40 years old and he
has to give up. A good many BARRIERS
drink hard, and that makes their nerves
and hands unfit for service, and they
retire before they cut their customers
threats. Still, will say that in all my
experience Of 81 years I never saw a
man badly cut by barber, not even by
an accident for which the barber was
not responsible. -
What becomes of the BARRIERS after
they retire?'
"Oh, some of them go to the poor
house, he replied, with twinkle in
his eye, "and some of them, who have
saved their wages, buy little places ana
live on them, perhaps running farm.
Some of them, of course, go into other
business, perhaps bookselling or else pe-
come insurance agents. I have heard Of
BARRIERS who gave up the business and
became butchers. This isn't such wide
difference from their former business
(what are you laughing at0 as it might
seem. No. 1 don't mean that they learn
to carve people or even to skin them in
the barber business. but they learn how
to handle blade skillfully and they
make first class meat cutters"

confronted with the following notice on
q signboard over the door of one of the

was learned that the purport of the sim

m THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.


The Duration of Life Varies According 60
Circumstances.
Among the long lived in the animal
kingdom we may mention birds. fish
and reptiles. although even in the lower
animals the duration of life varies i'm
mensely, according to the species OF
fish, the carp are especially long lived
Among birds, some of the parrot spe-
cies are supposed to live over 100 yearA
The swan, the raven, the eagle, are also
credited with great length Of life.
In the mammalia, the elephant at
tains the greatest age. 1t grows for 25
to 80 years and is said to live from 100
to $50 years and even longer. We have
no accurate means Of asce-taining the
whales age. A lion is said have lived
70ye:.rs in the Tower, but there is no ev-
idence that he attains any thing like that
age in the natural state. Forty years IL
recorded by naturalists as the extreme
,age. The camel may attain the age Of
90. 1t eats little and drinks less. The
horse is comparatively q short lived ami
NAL. but it is a we'll known fact that
when he does little work and passes the
greater part Of his days in pasture he
may attain to about 40 years of life,
but when a horse is hard worked and
fed, moreover, upon beans. oats and
other ossifying foods his days are much
shorter.
In the vegetable kingdom the yew at
tains great age. Those at Fountains abb
bey are about 1900 years old. Two
orange trees at Rome, planted respcc-
lively by St. Dominic and Thomas
Aquinas, are said to be from 500 to 600
years old, and there are records Of trop-
ical trees that, counting by their rings,
are supposed to have attained the age
of 500 to 1000 years. Nineteenth Cen

Not by COddlinc, but by Becoming Able

1t is not always sufficient to point
out danger. 1t is often of even greater
Importance to show how the danger
may be averted. Most people properly
recognize cold rs avoidable and think
they are greatly TO be commended for
the prudence they exercise III protecting
themselves. but if they did but know it
they are really doing all they can to
make themselves susceptible to colds by
weakening their resisting powers.
A German professor once wrote n
long treatise. with q learned title. on
how TO avoid catching cold After trac-
ing the history Of colds from the earliest
ages. studying their causes and symp-
toms and cataloguins the remedies
which have been used by the most emf
nent physicians Of all times he conclud-
ed with a short chapter Oh prevention.
His plan was to iuurc the back of
the neck to drafts by having some one
direct current of air upon it I'm
flows three times dav.
the wI..er had Ine correct idea, al
though its practicaR application was
clumsy and he was long time in reach
ing it The best and only way to escape
colds is to meet the causes that produce
them and not to run from them.
Let the body lie hardened by a cold
sponge bath or even a cold plunge, fol-
lowed by brisk rubbing with a
'scratchy' towel, every morning. Let
the clothing be adapted TO the season.
though always as light as possible, but
keep the eek uncovered-no turned up

let the temperature i'll the house rise
above 90 degrees in the winter Air

no matter what the outdoor temperature
may be- Always have fresh air i'll tho

trary Notwithstanding
In word, don't lie always afraid Of
catching cold. don't ccddle, but meet
cold and wet snd changes Of tempera-
ture like man. or rather like horse,
and you will then run "a better chance
of being as strong as horse.
OF course you must strengthen your
armor where it is weak, but if you rec

The sign which caught Mrs Dawson's

Mrs Dawson had the woman1y love
for bargain. She had often spent 10
cents car fare to secure some lovely
treasure that was marked down from

was more than provoked that Dawson,
who was with her, did not grow enthu-

Mrs Dawson. why not order it now

Dawson was certain the suits would
be as cheap next week, but his wife re-
fused to move on and dragged the help

clerk assured them that it was the bar

was positively the last.
With mental protests, but with out

He called in four days and took the
