The Bottle at Ship Launches.

Down to Charles lis time it was
customary to name and baptize a ship
after she was Notwithstanding a.
week or two after. The old Tudor
method used for men-of-war was still
in use. Pepys' Diary" shows that.
The ship was safely got afoat, after
which some high parsonage went
aboard with special silver standing
cup" or 'faggon" of wine out OF
which he drank, naming the ship, and
poured libation on the quarterback.
The cup was then generally given to
the dock yard master shipwright as
memento. When did the present usage
of naming and baptizing a ship before
she is sent afloat come in? 1 trace the
last explicit mention of the old method
to 1864, when the Royal Katherine was
launched (see Peyps). The first mention

TIE WRONG MEDICINE.

Thousands of people yearly treat their
ails with the wrong medicine. They
are in the habit of jumping at the first
cure alp they see advertised, and fancy
they are going to be benefited People
should use more caution in selecting
their medicines. These are times when
the country is flooded with the printed
boasts of experimenters. Those who
have piles in any form cannot be too
careful in it's treatment The delicate
membranes may receive injuries from
humbug remedies that will lead to the
most complicated eruptions. Pyramid

to medical science. 1t purifieS the af-
fected parts, reduces the tumors AMI

are troubled, try it. 1t is prepared by
the most skilled specialists who have
made the curing of piles and kindred
troubles a life study. 1t is now the
best known pile remedy before the pub

other known remedy. Hundreds who
have been treated surgically without
results have been completely cured by

with dangerous drugs nor run the risk
of painful surgical operation. This
remedy is a prompt, perfect and per-
manent cure for the most persistent
case of piles 1t is manufactured by

During the past week theater goers In
Sacramento have demonstrated theti
fine appreciation of strong, Wholesome
and high class work by giving goou
business to the Nance O'Neil Company
at the Opera-house for six consecutive
nights and a matinee. 1t was pro-
nounced a reckless venture when Man
ager Ficl1s wrote the engagement. 1T
was said to be an impossibility for any
one dramatic company of the order re-
ferred to. to hold up business here for
such length of time; that it would be
possible only in cases OF extraordinary
attra ctions in the hands of large and
splendidly equipped troupes. But the
prophets failed. Nance O'Neil came
with a good, but not notable company
good stock actors in some cases, fair
support in others. and with but two
persons on the roster in support" fam
Gus in California for artistic work. Yet
she and her troupe so we'll pleased that
despite heavy storms throughout the
week and strong counter attractions,
good houses prevailed and the engage
ment was an all around success.

Forget Me-Not" fame 1t has been
written for Charles Cartwright. The
story is one of the Dartmoor wilds,
some fifty years ago, when railways
were in their infancy and held by COM
mon folk to be the invention Of the
devil, ghost story for the freight,
so the author describes it, combining
a psychological problem" with a love-
tale. The piece comprises three acts,
the action of which takes place on the
''All Souls Eve of three successive
years. The scenes represent three in
teriors in an old ramshackle Devon;an
hall on Dartmoor. Of characters there
are six only-Jasper Acland of Tortres
and his pretty ward, Berry Pomeroy
of Starcross; young Stafford Yeo of
Bideford, mariner; Dr. Downer Butler,
the keen, polished physician of Ply
mouth; Silas and Abbey Wreford, the
old steward and housekeeper at the
manor. The title has been selected,
but is d secret as yet.

The late Nutcombe Gould seems to
have died at the moment when his pros

Miss Ellen Terry is said to be the

A correspondent of the London

Great excitement exists in Partisan
theatrical circles in consequence of the
controversy raised over the ticket
mongering scandals which cause SO
much annoyance to French and, above
all, foreign play-goers. One of these
is the hawking of 'billets d'ateur' at

Quinton Hogg TOLD the other evening
a story of his first Introduction when a
boy to Ruskin. Il burst with a laugh
into a room, and was suddenly pulled
up by seeing a gentleman leaning over
a Turner which my sister was copying.
He looked around with a somewhat for
bidding look, and said, .Ah, you had
better laugh when you're young, for
every year you live you will be more
and more miserable That was the
poets message to me! But perhaps 1t
was only meant as rebuke to the
temerity of youth in rushing between
him and his idol Turner
Of the late Horatio Tennyson young
est brother of the poet laureate, Lady
Taylor used to tell an amusing story.
Going into a room at Farringford one
afternoon in dim light she saw a figure
stretched at length upon a sofa. She
addressed herself as to. the poet, but a
correcting voice from the cushions came
forth; Pm Horatio, the most morbid

Isabelle Cromwell: There promises to
be a Balzac craze all over the country
this winter. The author is constantly
drawing more and more attention, until
it appears now as if he were to become
the rage of the season. This is the
reason that he occupies such a prom
inent place in my lecture series.
When the second of Norman Hap
goods political essays appeared in the
London Contemporary Review the
Spectator said that his skill in MAX
ing Lord Roseberry's humor, illustrate
his whole character was very rare, ana
was enough to prove that Mr. Hapgood
would be heard from again along the
same lines. Lincoln's character offers
peculiar opportunities for the treatment
of humor and it's relation to the deepest
mental and moral qualities, and this
opportunity is used to the full in the.
new biography.
