The Death Of Queen Elizabeth.

OF the efficacy of physie Queen IEliz-
abeth had always been skeptical Now
ten or twelve physicians came to the
palace, each promising, with all man
ner of asseveration, "her perfect and
easy recovery if she would follow a
simple course of trea tment. But they
spoke in vain. Nor could the protests
of Councillors, divines and waiting wo-
men induce her to- accept medical as
sistance Her melancholy was settled
and irremovable,' and she had no wish
to prolong it by lengthening out her
life She only broke silence to mur-
mur: II am not sick; I feel no pain,
and yet | pine away" She was asked
whether she had any secret cause of
grief She replied that she knew of
nothing in the world worthy of troub-
ling her. AT length, by force Qt is
said) she was lifted from the cushions
and put to bed. Her condition under
went no change. Gradually those about
her realized that she might live if
she would use means but that she
would not be persuaded; and Princes. rs

week they looked forward to a renewal
of her old vivacity and the dispersal of
her lethargy. But during the week it
was perceived that the ground she had
lost could only be recovered by mira

On Wednesday, March 23d, her Coun-
cilors entered her bedchamber to re-

MRS. JONES' SUGGESTION.
A WomanIy Woman in a Woman's
Political Club.

The buzzing of the wheels of thought
filled all the parlor, for the Woman
Political Club was in session.
There was the tall woman who said:
"'It is our pride, ladies, that this club
never does anything which those men
can laugh at" There, too, were the
little woman who always brought a
layer cake, and the woman in the seal
skin sack and spring bonnet, whose
contribution to the afternoon affairs OF
this club was always pound OF salt
tines and some macaroons.
Thought filled the air. The destiny OF
nations was hanging in the balance, for
the subject of discussion was: Should
the Senate Not Confirm the Arbitration
Treaty Between the United States and
Great Britain at the Earliest Oppor-
tunity?"
1T seems a crying shame" said she
of the sealskin sack, that these two
great nations, sprung from a parent
stem, should plunge into deadly strife
on account of a boundary dispute of

public
Mrs. Chairwoman," then spoke the
woman who always came in a carriage
with blue monogram on it, and never
brought even blanched almonds to that
tea. Mrs. Chairwoman, as / was say
ing the other day to my young friend

tries are so closely bound together by
international marriages. by common
CUSTOM by yweekly steamahs, and by so
many ties that it would be an ever
lasting disgrace should carnage and
bloodshed stain = the = the chariot
wheels of peace"
''She speaks so WE'LL said the young
woman with the violets. Her husband
is a lawyer, you know. I was almost
afraid that she would forget it."
The little woman who always brought
a layer cake leaned forward. A tense
expression was on her face. Her eyes
were filled with the awakening of an
is true. and had no blue monogram
either on a carriage or on her station
cry. She was on the fringe, yet she
was SO useful, for her layer cake was
always good.
Mrs. De Jones wishes to speak," re-
marked the woman with the sealskin
sack, in a stage whisper.

of those faculties on whose unrestricted
exercise her queenIy fame seemed to
her to depend. By refusing to be party
