THESLEEPINGG GIRL OF THENELLES.
She is as well known TO the Picard
peasants as Mollie Fancher has been to
the people of Brooklyn and New York.
Only, living in a more or less sparsely-
settled district, the marvel has lasted
longer. There have not been the multi
tudinous happenings of every day to
take the place of the sleeping girl in
public notice. The country people call
Margaret Boyenval La Carnotte, and 1t
is a morning greeting of the Picards:
81 see it is you, and not la Marmotte
who has awakened"
-Four times the world-renowned Char
cot has gone to stand and watch at-the
bedside of this wonder. Bropardel and
Berillon were also among the visitors,
and every day in the last 13 years the
village doctor, who joys in the name OF
Charrier, has knocked at the Boyenval
door and made medical notes of all facts
concerning the sleeper.
When first she fell into this mystic
Tious sleep Marguerite Boyenval was
only 10 years old, mere child in her
looks and in her ways. She was pref
ty-the prettiest girl i'm the neighbor-
hood-of fine, erect carriage, hapPyand
full of fun.
Now that the 10 years have gone, she
lies there, her head fallen over upon
her shoulder, her arms hidden under
the coverid, her face pale and hollow
cheeked-more like a dead woman than
one asleep.
Says Journalist Chinchalle, of the
Figaro, who went to see the sleeping
woman: 81 have seen many things, but
never such a spectacle as this"

PROTRACTED SLUMBER.
Peculiar Case Of "the Sleeping Girl
of Thenelles."
For More Than Thirteen Years She Has
Been In Bed without Awakening
Looks More Like a Dead Woman
Than One Asleep.

There is a sleeping woman in
Thenelles, in France, in the province
of Picardy, who bids fair, if she is fortu-
nate enough to live so long, to rob Rip
Van Wrinkle of the record for protracted
Sleep
Compared with this woman, the hero
of Irving's famous tale, the hero whom
Joe Jefferson has so well and so often
pictured, is not to be mentioned at all,
for everybody knows that his sleeep of
20 years was only story book Sleep
born in the imaginative mind of a prince
of writer's The sleeping girl of The
nelles is a matter-of-fact proposition
She is in the flesh, and for - long,
dreamful years has been sleeping away
there in a homely cottage about 20
miles from St. Quentin
All over France they know her as
ia dormeuse de Thenelles"-thes sleep
ing girl of Thenelles-and a Paris paper
says that since the original story of the
sleeping beauty in the wood there has
been no case so strange as hers.
The name of this extraordinary young
woman is Margaret Bayenval- The way
in which her siege of sleepfulness came
on is most interesting. She had a
nervous attack, which resulted in a
fainting spell In the midst of this
she fell just on the threshold of the
humble cottage, where, with her mother,
she lived.
Half conscious, the poor girl was as
sisted to n bed, disrobed and put to
sleep. From that sleep she has never
weakened. Thirteen years and five
months have passed away, and still so
deeply buried in sleep iSsshe that the
people in attendance upon her are con-
yinced she will die without ever re-
gaining consciousness of the things of
this world. The fame of her sleeping
has gone out through all the country.

One OF the most interesting Of Glas-
gov enterprises is what may be de-
soribed as municipal time for the entire
city. Some years ago the experiment
was tried Of placing municipal clocks
in prominent positions all over Glasgow
and regulating them by syrchroniza-
ton. The present scheme is much more
elaborate and is nothing less than the
establishment of Il system cf standard
time, by means Of electrically controlled
clocks, regulated every second from the
stellar clock at the observatory. a rog-
ulating clock, directly controlled from
the observatory, has bccu placed ia tho
city chambers, and this IN turn controls
three circuits of public clcoks at vari-
GUS points in the city. In the meantime
only about dozen clccks have been
provided, bat if the trial proves suc.
cessful the corporation intends TO erect
from eco to SEQ 8 inch diais, thas FRO
yiding a reliable system of atanlard
time for oil parts of the ciiy This eS-
tension Of the circuit will involve the
laying Of 81 miles of wire. 1t is hoped
also 70 include time keeping in privaso
houses. Westminster Gazette.
