When travelling in the south Of Iro-
land Some years ago, was not little
surprised to hear every one in room
shout, God bless you, " when any per
son sneezod, and the God bless you"
was repeated for every sneeze. / have
since learned that this salutation has an
origin going back TO the sixth century,
when the black plague fell upon Rome.
Its victims showed the first symptoms
by sneezing, When the African king
Of Monomopata sneezes, oil those near
his person send up great shout, all
within hearing take it up, so that tho
snee2e may be said to go echuing
through the kingdom. Ono would think
the subjects would soon get hoarse if
their sovereign CHANGED TO have an old
fashioned New England hay fever.
When the king of Senaar sneezes, his
courtiers turn their backs on him and
give loud slap on their right thigh
There is a great deal Of character in the
manner Of snee2iug, and though even
George Washington could not bo dig
nified when he felt a sueozo coming on
and was in doubts whether it would
come to head on not it must be CON
tossed that good sneeze is moro pleas

to make for the Metropolitan of this city
in arranging to present to his patrons the
Giffen-Nell company st. Paul has from
time to time had some pretty enjoyable times
with the dramatic stock companies, and
in fact, the city has grown rather partial
to dramatic organizations Of this nature, and
for that reason it is more than probable that
the Giffen-Neill company will prove a mag
net of tremendous power for a long time
to come here. "Men and Women will be
the first play presented by the Giffen-Neill
company. The play will be readily remem-
bered. It's story is very powerful one and
has to do with love, fashion and financial

ceived. The characters all strongly drawn

pany should be very forcefully presented.

WHY NOT GO THE WHOLE COW,

The secretary of agriculture had his
attenlon called to the shipment of
corn from Baltimore to Copenhagen
AS faithful and an alert agricult,,rist
he wanted to know what corn was 90
ing to Denmark for The old saw of
there being something rotten in that
country occurred to him. He found
that the corn went there to be ground
into meal and to be sold to the farm
ers to be fed to their cows to produce
butter fat to be separated and worked
and nodded and packed off to Eng
land, where it took the cream of the
butter market. AS an intelligent Iowa
farmer Mr.. Wilson should have known
all this long ago, but the narratives
given out by the Turveydrops Of the
news bureaus lead to the conclusion
that it was a discovery for him. The
secretary acted with the rapidity of a
Greek retreat. He investigated our
butter exports and found them almost
nil because only poor stuff" was sent
abroad. If the Englishman, a fellow to
be courted when you have anything to
sell him and tabooed when he has any,
thing to sell you, could only get a taste
of the real stuff, Denmark would be
out in the cold.
So the secretary brought into play
all the vast machinery of his and of
the state department. He forthwith
instructed agents to buy up ton or
two of the giltest edged butter the
diaries of this nation produce, and
have it put up in all tempting forms,
from granules in glass jars to pats
and rolls in boxes and mass butter in
tubs. An agent Of the state depart
n,ent in Lunnon was directed to re-
eeive the butter, display 1t, hunt up
experts and have them taste it, find out
il 1t has too much or too little salt to
suit the English taste; follow ND the
