Rogers Sharp Tongue.

Rogers and Luttrell were sauntering
through the Louvre together when some
ladies accosted the former gentleman. A
few words We're exchanged, followed by
formal bows, and they parted. Luttrell
rejoined his friend, saying: 1T Is a GU
rious thing. One of those ladies came UP
to me and said, is your name LuttrellY' -
'And was it!'' said Rogers This peculiar
rejoinder conveyed sneer that perhaps
no other than the mordant tongue of Rog-
ers could have uttered. The only wonder
is that it was forgiven.
We learn from the ''Greville Memoirs
that Rogers and Luttrell were always
bracketed together-intimate friends-sel-
dom apart and always hating, abusing
and ridiculing each other
The covert sneer conveyed in the words,
"Was it your name:' is explained by the
fact that the society wit, who delighted
two generations by his brilliant talk, was
n natural son of Lord Carhampton. In
early life the earl was known the Colo
mel Luttrell Negotiated in "Junius' Let
ters,' and of whom Horace Walpole
marked that 1.-The court had crammed him

Pleasant Treatment of Disease.

the belief in wttchcraft is slowly yield
ing TO education. The medical litera-
ture consists of ancient manuscript
family prescription books and printed
volumes distributed by peddlers. The
older the prescription the greater the
credit. The peasant nowadays, while
carefully concealing his ancestral be-
liefs. is yet. when disease affects him,
inclined to revert to the old charms
and remedies. DIR. Zahler attributes
such efficacy as they possess to what
is now called suggestion" but admits
the part played by the use of herbs in
all primitive medicine.
