His name shone radiant. embossed In gold,

But of the ether silenced poet no man spake.

AAto Folding EedA.

All purchasers of folding beds do not
buy them solely for the sake Of saving
room. According to manufacturer,
some people with ample house room
at command buy them, for one reason,
SO that the rooms in which they are
placed can be put to other uses than
as bedrooms.
This manufacturer mentioned one
New York family in whose house are
eleven fine folding beds. Any room
in the house designed for and equipped
as a sleeping room could be easily
transformed from a bedroom to one
that had no appearance Of sleeping
apartment whatever.
There are produced nowadays fold
ing beds of one kind and another that
are sold at low prices, but the most
costly of the finer folding beds may
easily be pretty dear affairs.
The manufacturer told of one elabo-
rately designed and finished folding
bed that cost $1,000, the cost of the
carving alone having been S3O0.-New

Viscount Bury asked for leave to in

Queen Anne which makes it necessary
for members of the house to seek re-
election on accepting Office in the gov

no useful purpose. Mr.. Vernon Har-

against leave being given even to
bring in such bill. The speech,
which occupies six columns in Han

throughout, induced Viscoun. Bury to

QUEER ARE WOMEN.

"Women are critically curious Great

Many OF them lost not only their homes

clothing, and money as well. Some
furniture was saved from the fiery flend
