won a bride. He was 30 years old
when he met damsel of ID, with
whom he at once fell in love. The
child took no notice Of him, but he
gave her the story to read. ms effective
a manner of counting in this nineteenth
century as ever was Othello's in an
earlier one. Two years later the young
lady was at a public meeting where
Captain Reid spoke on behalf of the
Polish refugees. "An electric thrill
seemed to pass through me as he en-
tered the room," she said afterward,
and when the meeting was over she
went up to him. 81 leave for London

"Please send me your address"

with some embarrassment. He In

"Dear Captain Reid-As you asked me
to send you my address. l do So" BY
return of post came the answer: "Only
say that you love me and l will be
with you at once" and then the reply,

The HOG.

No other animal has been more modi-

Grated in the process Of civilization,
get back size and strength. At a year
old they are formidable at 2. murder

Strange and almost weird is the cere.
mOnial which accompanies the burial
of Spanish kings. The pantheon, or
royal tomb, is at the palace Of the
Escurial. situated 5000 feet above the
level Of the sea and some distance
from the capital. Only kings, queens
and mothers of kings are buried there,
the collins of the kings lying on one
side, those of the queens on the other.
After lying in state for several days
in the throneroom in Madrid an enor-
nous procession is formed, accompany
ing the body to the Escurial. A halt
is made on the way, and the corpse
rests there for one night.
In the morning the lord high cham
and says in loud tones, SIS your majes-
ty pleased to proceed on your jour-
ney" After a short silence the pro-
cession moves on and winds up to the
grand portal of the palace. These
doors are never opened except to ad.
NIT royal parsonage, dead or alive
When the casket containing the re-
mains is at last placed In the vault
the chamberlain unlpcks it and, kneel
ing down, calls with loud voice
"Senor! Senior! Senor!"
After a solemn pause he cries again
"His majesty does not reply. Then II
Is true, the king is dead"
He then locks the coffin, gives the
key to the prior and. taking his stan
of office, breaks it in pieces and filings
them at the casket. The booming OF

nounce to the nation that the king hal
