a round sab of sandstone 1914 inches
in diameter and three inches thick,

from the Harelston stone quarry,
three miles distant from Brington,

are, it is said, to be found precisely
similar. The lines, figures and shield

shield are the letters Il. W., and it is
considered probable that the dial was
made for Robert Washington, second

BEGIN WITH asp"
A Curious Fact Regarding Words with
Spiteful Meanings.


Has anyone ever noticed how many
words that denote violent action be-
gin, not with ST." but with ESP"
Sarah Grand's favorite words like
spank, spark, spasm, speed, spill, spin,
spit, split, splinter, and splutter,
spring, spurn and squirt all begin with
these mysterious two letters, while
spears, spurs and spikes, if not violent
in themselves, generally conduce to
nearly as many violent actions in 9th
ers as their neighbor, spite.
is it possible that the effort neces-
sary for pronouncing effectively words
beginning with this diphthong in
itself suggested the idea Of violence?
lfso, it can only be o English ears, for
Italians and Spaniards manage to lisp
out "sp's" prettily enough.
While on the subject of words, it
may be noticed that a new word to de-
scribe gentleman who is, ifanything,
oyer-eareful Of his appearance is afelt
want Coxcombs. bucks, macaronis,
swells, Washers, and dudes have all
had their day, and the two last names
are now hardly, if ever, heard.
Yet the new word, when it comes,
must not have any contemptuous
'ignidcation as have fop or totf,
but must be an epthet such as
a self-respecting man would re-
eeiye in the spirit Of Lord Topping
on, who, when styled the prince Of
coxcombs, replied that he was proud
to be at the head Of SO prevailing a
party"
The French some time ago found
the exact word wanted in "vingtieme,'
which seems TO have quite replaced
the 'incroyables,' "muscadins,'
"petits creves" and "gommeux" Of th'
past.-Pall Mall Gazette.

KING CARED FOR THE cow.
How Victor Emmanuel Of italy Served
One of bis Own Subjects.

King Victor and the queen Of Italy
we're walking few days ago near the
Chateau de Racconigi and, the after
noon being warm, her majesty became
Thirsty, and said she would like. to get
I glass Of milk or water somewhere.
An old woman was taking care Of a
COW near by, and the king Went and
asked her for little milk Fancying
that the young man was an ordinary
tourist, the old peasant answered that
her COW had no milk.
"But you have some water at
lomeY - asked the king.
"Of course, have" was thereby.
@Will You be good enough to fetch
me some?s continued the king.
Eyes, if you will take care Of my
cow until come back, answered the
old woman.

and from that moment he kept his
eyes on the COW.
Ten minutes later, says the New
York Herald, the old woman came
back with a bowl of fresh water
"How is it," asked the king, ''that
there are SO few people here today"
Because they have all gone to the
chateau to see the king, queen and lit
Tie princess" was the reply "Only
old women like me have been left at
home, and so we'llnever have the luck
10 see the king and Iris family"
"You are mistaken, my good wom-
an" answered the king, as he handed
hera new gold piece. "Iamthe king,
and this lady is the queen"
For some moments the old peasant
woman was so surprised that she could
not speak; then, in faltering voice,
she cried:
pardon me, your majesty, but /
really had no notion that you were
the king"
The royal couple tried hard to calm
her. and at length succeeded, but even
as they were strolling away she was
still reproducing herself, and saying
over and over again;
"How crazy must have been to ask
the king to take care ofmy Govt"
