HOW LOUIS XIV. GOT A WIFE
A WiIlful Little Spanish Princess
Make Up Her Mind to
Marry Him.

When Infanta Maria Theresa was ten
they began talking about a husband
for her. But here, unexpectedly, the
little girl showed will of her own.
She said she wanted to marry her
cousin, the young king of France. She
had never seen him, except in picture,
but she had heard great deal of him.
Spain, which had been the most pow
erful of nations, was beginning to go
downhill, and France was coming up.
1t was the most refined, the most splen
did and the wealthiest Of nations. It's
young king, Louis XIV, was said to be
perfect fairy prince. No one else
was so handsome; no one else had so
bold a spirit, or so gracious manners, or
were such magnificent clothes with so
grand an air. Maria Theresa thought
he would just suit her.
And then, quite suddenly, Infanta
Don Balthazar died, and Maria Theresa
became the heiress presumptive to the
Spanish throne. Then there was, no
more talk of her marriage to the king
of France; if she was to be the queen
of Spain. she would have to stay at
home. Then there came another sud
den change. The king, her father, de
cided to marry again, and whom should
lie take for a second wife but that
very Mariana of Austria, who had
been intended for his SON s bride. ).
Afterwards, Queen Mariana had two
little sons. Infanta Maria Theresa was
no longer heiress to the throne, and
there was no reason why she should
not leave the country. De Gramont
the French ambassador, came seeking Il
wife for his young master, and Maria
Theresa's childish wish came true. She
was greatly pleased. She used to run
away from her ladies-in-waiting to the
room where hung the portrait of the
handsome French king, and curtsy to
it, saying with a laugh:
THAT is for my bridegroom"
SO the king of France, with a mag
nificent suite, journeyed down from
Paris to the frontier of his kingdom;
and the Spanish princess, with mag
piticent suite, journeyed up from Mad
rid to the frontier of hers; and there,
on an island in the Bidassoa, which is
the boundary stream, they were mag
nifcently welded. The brides dresses
filled II large trunks, covered with
crimson velvet and mounted with sill
yer; 30 morocco trunks contained her
linen; so mules were laden with her
toilet plate and her perfumes. Besides
all this, she took with her quantities of
presents, among them two chests filled
with purses, gloves, perfumes and
whisker-cases, for her future brother
in-law, the duke of Orleans. | cannot
tell you exactly what "whisker cases"
were, except that they were made Of
leather, and that the dandies of that
time went to bed with them on their
mustaches. Perhaps they were some
thing like curl-papers.-Isabel Nc
Dougall, in St. Nicholas.

REGULARITY PAYS.
Feeding the Hens Between Meals Is
n Practice That Is Not to
BE Commended.

Have a regular hour for feeding the
hens, and promptly appear on the scene
with the feed at that time. Give moth
ingin the intervals between these hours.
We have seen it advised 30 keep pail
of grain in the poultry house from
which a handful may be taken and
scattered on the floor every time the
place is entered. The theory is that it
has a tanning effect upon the hens, and
inspires confidence in and affection for
the owner.
When this is done, however, the hens
will always be petitoning for food when
the owner is in sight. They will tumble
off the nesting boxes at the first sound
of his footsteps, and will crowd up
against the wire in state of excited
expectancy whenever he nears the
house or yard. The hens will be more
quiet and contented if they are given to
understand that there are regular feed
ing times and they can expect nothing
between the hours appointed for that
purpose. They will devote themselves
more industriously to scratching out
the grain which has been buried in the
litter and will not discontinue this work
to claim "bonus" at the hands of the
owner every time he appears in the vi
cinity of the quarters.-Farmers

ROUP AND IT'S CURE.
When the Disease Has Reached the
Advanced Stage the Hatcbet
Is the Only Remedy.

Symptoms of roup may be described
thus: Fowls begin coughing, sneez-
ing and sometimes their breathing is
heavy, accompanied by a wheeling
sound; eyes become infamed, head
swells, have watery discharge from
nostrils, which sometimes has an Of
fensive odor; they are drinking al
most continually if they have access
to water, which is Indicative of their
being feverish.
AS the disease advances the head be-
comes infiamed, swelling on one or
both sides, frequently obstructing the
sight, the eye sometimes being entire
ly destroyed. 1t may be noticed that
when fowls are affected with this dis
ease they have splendid appetites and

years, it appeared, must / stand and face
this bowling wind which bore against me
like a living thing
The tempest, which had come in the teeth
of smiling day, was marked as well by
capriciousness as by violence. As the ghast
illness of early dawn broke in the east, and
| gradually awoke to the fact that morning
was at hand, the wind fell as though
chopped off or as if we had suddenly shot
into the lee of a vast wall In half sense
less fashion, like man under a drug, tried
with fruitess efforts to shake off the feel
ing of utter carelessness which had fastened
to my senses. With the calmness of abso-
lutte indifference | marked the sudden drop
ping of the wind, though knew full well
that it portended an increase of the gale,
but when, Tor how long, from what quarter
or with what force, the Almighty alone
knew; as for me, / cared not if it blew the
vessel out Of water. With the same dull in
difference | marked our new danger and
every detail attending it. With the sudden
calm we were at the mercy of the long,
green, foam-capped pillows which charged
toward us like moving hills. They came not,
like rollers, with the regular swing of the
ground swell, but every surge was the head
waters of a mighty dam broken loose, its
crest made up of mad, throbbing mass of
liquid torn into shreds and cross seas by it's
own weight and violent motion. The face
of the world was a vast tumult of yeasty,
ash-colored madness cut by the darkness of
its hollows; terror (if could have felt it,
not = horror; more sublime than grand,
more swfsl than sublime.
