THE CHRISTMAS DINNER.

In spite of the fact that the word
"dyspepsia" means literally bad COOK,
it will not be fair for many to lay the
blame on the cook if they begin the
Christmas Dinner with little appetite
and end it with distress or nausea. 1t
may not be fair for any to do that
let US hope so for the sake of the cook!
The disease dyspepsia indicates bad
stomach, that is a weak stomach, rath-
er than bad cook, and for weak
stomach there is nothing else equal to
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t gives the
stomach vigor and tone, cures dyspep-
sia, creates appetite, and makes eating
the pleasure it should be.

THE QUEENS TOMB.
Is Ready-The Epith Composed by
 Victoria Herself.

Queen Victorias tomb is ready for her. It was built from the designs suggested by herself and under her own supervision. The burial place of the British sovereigns is in the famous chapel of St. George, within the castle walls at Windsor, which was built by Cardinal Wolsey, and is considered one of the most beautiful examples of ecclesiastical architec- ture in the world. But Victoria would not allow the remains of her consort to be placed in the gloomy crypt She insisted in building for them mausolem upon her own pri- vate property, within the grounds of Frogmore house, which adjoins those of Windsor Castle It's stately dome has been within sight of the windows of the apartments she always occu- pied in the castle. It is simple but beautiful structure of colored marble, mosaic and bronze, and is intended for only two persons-her late hus- band and herself The body of Prince Albert has been lying there for many years with a beautiful sarcophagus beside it that awaits her mortal re- mains.
 The epitaph, composed by the Queen herself, is simply this
 'Victoria- A Ibort
 Here at last I shall
 Rest with thee;
 With thee in Christ Shall rise again.
