A QUEER PICTURE THING.
The Way Orc Art Treasure Was Res.
cued From oblivion.


Few chapters In the worlds history
are more curious and interesting than
that which deals with the fortunes Of
its art treasures. In the cathedral at
Montreal Is, or was few years ago,
a large piece Of tapestry which had
been discovered In back street Of a
New England town. The story is told
in Mrs. Silsbee's Half Century Of
Salem"
One day certain Mr.. Miller passing
through Derby street saw woman
beating clouds of dust from carpet.
Something peculiar in its appearance
made him stop and look closely at it,
when he discovered, to his astonish-
ment, that it was splendid piece Of
tapestry, with life sized figures
wrought from Raphael's cartoon,
"Feed Ny Lambs"
The woman was quite willing to
tell how she obtained it, 1t was. in
fact, a standing grievance to her. Her
husband was sailor. and when he
went out on one of his voyages she
had begged him to bring her carpet
for her best room. AS it happened, he
did not visit a port where he could
buy a carpet, but rolled up in little
shop on the quay at Malta he had
found the tapestry and purchased it,
thinking it might answer the purpose.
1t was too large for the room, and the
woman had to turn big piece under.
She folded the piece back, revealing
part of the superb border Of fruit and
flowers, wrought in silk and gold
thread as fresh as when 1t was first
worked. But the owner eyed it with
contempt, She never did like the
queer picture thing, she declared.
1t was the opportunity Of lifetime
Mr.. Miller promptly offered her the
choice of any carpet in the stores In
exchange for her queer picture
thing" and the woman as promptly
accepted the offer. They went down.
town together, and she selected, with
unbounded delight, hideous pattern
Of glowing reds and green's. Her face
was full Of triumph when she re-
turned. The best room at last was to
have carpet that was carpet!
It Is safe to say that no bargain ever
gave more complete satisfaction to
both parties than the one made that
morning in Derby street, Salem. ..s,s.,

Of Dennis Has3er, who disappeared six
weeks ago. leaving wife and three
children here, has been found in the

condition that it was impossible for
the coroner or the police to tell the

neighbors had believed that Hasler

A GREAT WORRY CURE.
Common Sense IL the Best Remedy
That Can Ne Prescribed.

SVAA&VA
That Can he Prescribed.
I once asked a physician what cure
he could suggest for the worrying hab-
it. II would prescribe common sense"
he said, land If man or woman
hasn't got stock on hand and cannot
cultivate one the medical man is pow
erless." This worrying nonsense grows.
The best means to cure it lies in the
hands Of the woman herself.
If she will just call little horse
sense to her aid, resolve not to borrow
trouble, to be cheerful and think upon
the right side of things, she will live
longer and be able to retain her beauty.
Every woman has the strongest desire
to keep her good looks. Why, then,
does she take the course which is sure
to make her yellow skinned, dull eyed
and thoroughly unlovely?
The Englishwoman is greatly ad-
mired for her utter refusal to worry or
to be worried. Consequently she. looks
young at fifty. Undertaking no more
than she can comfortably carry out
and firmly believing in the coming of
another day, she does not procrasti-
nate, but simply will not let the domes-
tic machinery grind her dbwn to i'll
health and an early old age.
She is frequent bather and regards
health as the prime factor of life, to be
looked after before everything else.
She sleeps nine hours and also takes q
nap during the day, arranging her
work in the most systematic manner.
Her little memorandum slip always
shows two vacant hours-they are for
rest. She eats heartily, but of the most
digestible food, and would rather have
mouthful of good food and go partly
hungry than eat whole meal Of
cheaper ,things.-Philadelph Inquirer
