southey ON Wordsworth.

OF Wordsworth, Southey writes in
1908, says Harold S. Scott in The At
lantic: He has written a mastery
poem called The White Doe of Rilston
Hall; or, The Fate of the Nortons.' The
poem is incomparably fine. 1t would
amuse you to hear how he talks Of his
own production. His entire and intense
selfshness exceeds anything you could
have conceived. / am more amused at
it than offended; not being sufficiently
attached to him TO feel pain at perceiv-
ing his faults, and yet respecting him
far too much on the average Of his
qualities to be disgusted. 1t is so pure
and unmiXed passion in him that Ben
Jonson would have had him in play
had he been his contemporary"

Talking to oneself has this obvious
advantage over any other form of ORA
,ory or gossip: One is assured of Il
sympathetic audience. But it has alsv
t!l!s peculiar drawback 1t is supposed
70 he one of the early symptoms of in
sanity. Wrongly so perhaps. A mad
doctor might rule the habit out of his
diagnosis. Nevertheless the popular
'.enef is firmly rooted, and it is for
teur of this belief doubtless that we
talk to ourselves even as we dress our
hair with straws so rarely.
1t may be said that we never do ad-
dress ourselves at any length except in
the delirium of fever. In moments
of ordinary excitement OF course we
utter 10 the wind some sort of appro-
pirate ejaculation. Delight wrings
from us a cry of "Hurrahr' or "Thank
heaven!' even though there be none by
to echo us. Similarly in any disgust
we emit one of those sounds whose
rather poor equivalents in print are
"Ughw and "FHugh" and "Tutr' Much
further than this we do not go. "Why,
what an ass am I!' cries Hamlet ia
one of his solloquies. Omitting the
first word and transposing the last
two, the ordinary modern man does
often soliloQuiZe TO that extent But
he could no more soliloquize to Ham.

oecasyliabics.
Nor is there any reason to suppose
that that class of the community with
which, contemptuous Of his own fiuen-
cy, Hamlet compared himself is or
ever was more prone to soliloquize
than any other, In the matter of solil-
oquies we cannot accept Hamlet as an
unbiased authority. We merely find in
him the possible origin of the belief
that talking to oneself is a bad sign

MILLIONS A YEAR
Incredible Amount of Money
Lost by the Working Glasses,
An Interview With George v. Ham
mOnd, Of Tacoma, Wash, a Man
Who Talks From Experience.

The money lost annually by skilled
workmen of all occupations figures up
to millions of dollars and is becoming
greater every year This amount of
money represents mainly time lost and
the serious effect upon the social com
fort of the workingmen and their
/ families is evident. Mr.. George "
Hammond, of Tacoma, Wash, said
the other day:
II have lost my share of time but |
am thankful to say that l have not
been losing any of late,'
You don't look us if you had lost
much through sickness
No, and | don't feel so. But the
fact remains that | was very sick
man. ! took cold along in 1889, and
rheumatism settled in my shoulders
and arms. | suffered for three years
and nothing relieved me until in April,
1892, upon the recommendation of my
sister, began the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and found
relief in the second box. | took five
boxes in ALL and now am entirely
cured and have had no occasion to
use them SINCE
Mr. Hammond resides at No 6lO n.
Steele st, Tacoma, Washington, and
at the request of the reporter made
affidavit to his above statement before
James III. Dege, IL notary public, on
July ), 1901.
There is n popular idea that rheu-
matism is caused by exposure to cold
and that Some localities are infected
with ii more than others. Such con
ditions frequently promote the devel-
opment of the disease but, from the
fact that rheumatism runs in certain
families, it is shown to be hereditary,
and consequently disease of the
blood
Frequently an individual in whose
family rheumatism has not occurred,
develops the. disease and when IL di-
agnosis of the case is made, ii is gen
orally found that the ailment is due
to arrangement of the blood.
External applications may afford tenn
porary relief, but TO cure the disease,
il is necessary to treat it through the
blood
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for pale peo-
pie go directly to the seat of the dis
order, purifying and enliching the
blood by eliminating poisonous ele-
ments and renewing health giving
forces. They are positive specific
not only for rheumatism, but for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitus' dance sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head
ache the after effects of grip, of fevers
and other acute diseases, palpitation of
the heart, pale and sallow complex
ions and all forms of weakness, either
in male or female. Dr.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People are sold by all
dealers or will be sent postpaid on
receipt of price, ifty cents box; six
boxes two dollars and fifty cents, by
addressing DR.. Williams Medicine Co,
schenectady, n. Y. Be sure to get
the genuine; substitutes never cured
anybody.

RoRst Peaeock.

In the old days a peacock was per
haps the most gorgeous and decorative
dish on the Christmas board. This was
prepared by first carefully removing
the skin without losing the feathers.
The fowl was then dressed, stuffed
with all kinds of good things. roasted
and finally sewed into Its skin, still re-
tanning the brilliant plumage. The
beak was gilded. and this dish, tit for
n king. was placed upon the table amid
the blare of trumpets and the raptur-
GUS applause Of the reyelers.

A Poverty Stricken Queen.

Partly owing to the fact that she was
welded to an avaricious king and part
" because she was generous with the
little money allowed her Elizabeth Of
York. queen of Henry VII, spent but a
small amount for dress. She was very
often In debt, and the sums she spent
were ridiculously small, 20 shillings $50
being the greatest amount expended at
any one time. Her gowns were mend
ed and turned, and new waists were
made for them, as is shown by the rec
ord Of bills paid to her tailor. These
bills prove that she wore her clothes
for a long time. for her gowns were
obliged to be newly hemmed, and also
that, though a princess Of the great
house Of Plantagenet, she wore shoes
costing but 81 cents, which were deco
rated with tin buckles!

A Strange Target.

In "The Book Of the Rifle" the Hon.
II. F. Freemantle tells the following
amusing story apropos Of accidents to
markers:
"Sir Henry Halford on one occasion
1T was not a very clear day-was
about to begin shooting at 1000 yards
and, thinking that the marker must
now be ready for him to begin, asked
him through the telephone. Are you
all rightT The marker replied, "All
right, SIR, In a minute;' but, unluckily,
Sir Henry took AN right, SIR instead
of the whole sentence and removed the
telephone from his ear. He lay down
and fired his shot, and on looking
through the telescope to see where 1t
had hit was Mortified to see the marker
with a perfectly white face staggering
toward his shelter. He was intensely
alarmed, and in moment there came
a ring at the telephone. What has
happened? Are you badly hurtT NO,
sir, am not hurt; but had a bucket
of whitewash between my legs paint
ing the target, and you put bullet Into
1t and splashed 1t all up in my face "
