Mrs. Lumpkin's husband was the late

Some of it is blue and some of it is yellow, and some of it is shell pink. but all of it is silk with silver buckles meant to be worn where Bobby Shafto, in the old song, wore his, and there are several hundred pairs of it. They the pairs-were intended to be pre- sented to the women in the audience on the ocasion of the one hundred and fiftieth performance of certain opera the theatrical man manages, and when the appointed time was come. and the glittering things were piled on tables in the theater lobby. only three women in the house paused to take their choice. As souvenirs-well the man ager simply couldn't give the things away, and they are gathering tarnish in the trunk here now, for he left them in disgust at this point in his tour The matinee girl is willing to accept clocks and pictures and spoons and goodness only knows what eles as sou venirs. but there are things she draws the line at.

It has a very singular effect upon magnetic needle, and will influence it at dis tance of even TO feet The electrical strength of the tree varies according to the time of day, it being strongest at midday and weakest at midnight. In wet weather it's powers disappear altogether Birds never approach the tree, nor have insects ever been seen upon it.
