ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE.

Mr.. j. II. French of Barre, Vt, says,
II desire 10 let the world know
where they can not only find relief,
but a permanent cure. For The last

from rheumatism, indigestion and

had elapsed after the eruption of 1892.
when in the autumn Of ls9s blue flames
began to emerge from the mouth Of the
largest crater and a great deal of vapor
was emitted from the lesser orifices.
1t was then announced that Etna
seemed to be preparing for an effusion
Of lava. probably on the south or
southwest slopes. The expected erun-
tion, however did not begin till the
morning Of July 10, 1899. when great
volumes Of smoke and lava began to
issue from the main crater, but after
several days the activity gradually
subsidized, and Etna soon resumed its
peaeefulsaspect and has since seemed
TO be in slumberous condition.

Why the Play Was Grand.

was, and they were discussing the new

portions have been generously revealed

him in.
did you like the play?" asked the
girl In brown.
1T was simply grand" replied the
girl in blue. Didn't o go?"
NO." said the other. Somebody told
me it was a modern play and that he
wore high boots and riding breeches.
What did he wear?"
Somebody told you wrong" said the
girl in blue. He didn't wear boot at
all. He was too lovely for words. He
wore-well, they were just the same as
they were in The Sign of the Cross,
only another color"
The girl in brown looked regretful.
"It must have been a fine play" L1e
said.
1T was perfectly grand" repeated
the girl in blue.

THE LUCK OF EDENHALL.
Sir Richard Muaarave's Fairy Goblet
In the Bank Of Enuland,

IN tho 6ank OF England.
London Telegraph: Many things Of
priceless value are stored In the strong
rooms and vaults of the Bank OF Eng
land, but it Is doubtful whether they
nave ever before contained al article at
tributed to the manufacture of real fairies
like the glass beaker," known as the
Luck OF Edenhall," which, II Is report
ed, has been intrusted for safe custody
TO the authorities I" ~Threadneedle street,
owing to Sir Richard Musgrave having
let for IL time his residence In Cumber-
land. 1t is composed OF very thin glass,
ornamentod on the outside with a variety
of finely executed colored devices, and
the fact that the leather case In which IT
is enclosed bears the sacred monogram
"lHS,'' has led to the belief that II was
originally intended for n chalice. It's his
tory is unknown, but the tradition Is to
the effect that one Of the servitors at
Edenhall surprised at nighttime a band OF
fairies disporting around st. Cuthbert's
we'll in the grounds of the mansion and
took the cup from them. AS they flew
away one Of them piped:
If this glass do break or fall,
Farewell the luck Of Edenhall.
Since then the supernatural article hes
remained an heirloom Of the family.
Bongfellow, in one Of his poems, allows
the beaker to be broken, but his was
merely a flight Of poetic imagination. 1t
is intact In every particular, and is likely
to remain so in tho keeping OF the bank.
The only other vltreous article extant al
legged to be Of supernatural origin is the

Tho Prince Described.

Canistota Clipper: While the big pa
pers Of the day are devoting columns
of space every day to the forthcoming
visit Of Prince Henry, brother of En-
peror william, to this country, 1t will
not be out of place for the Clipper man
to give an account of our short meeting
with him. 1t was in July, 1899, that the
writer was on board the hospital ship
Relief en- route home from Manila,
just convalescing from an attack of
typhoid fever. While we were in the
harbor of Yokohoma, Japan, the prince,
at that time commander of hat divis-
ion OF the German fleet, came on board
the ship to inspect it, at that time the
Relief being the only ship of it's kind
in the world. AS this was to be IL
first sight of royalty of course we were
all anxious to see what it would look
like. When he came we saw q short,
chunky man with a kindly face covered
with a soft brown beard, and not one-
half so bedecked with gold lace and
ornaments as were our own officers
on the ship. The prince went over the
entire ship and every few minutes
would stop and make some pleasant
remark to a soldier who seemed to par
ticularly strike his fancy, a thing that
an American officer would never do
only as duty demanded 1t. With that
way about him he cannot help but
make friends among the American peo-
pie while he Is the nations guest and
If he should visit out state we will be
found carrying a banner In the front
rank to welcome him among us.

Nor I weren't neither" says l."
And with that he winked n pinched
me hard.
Just you mention them words to
your squire, JIM" he went on. Nor
he weren't, netherlands the words.
Three years he were the man OF this
island, light and dark, fair n rain;
n sometimes he would, maybe, think
upon a prayer (says you), and some
times he would, maybe, think of his old
mother, so be as she's alive (you'n say)
but the most part of Gums time (this
is what you'll say)-the most part OF
his time was took up with another
matter. And then you'll give him a
nip, like j do"
And he pinched me again in the

that's neither here nor there; for how

sure. Well, there's my boat that / made
with my two hands. 1 keep her undel

the worst. we might try that after

that?"
For just then, although the SUI had

"They have begun to fight" l cried

And / began to run toward the

Tit-Bits: This is a story of a man who
has become a successful merchant. A
few years ago he was employed as an
office boy and messenger for q large firm.
He was sent to collect an account from a
firm which was considered very "~shaky,"
and was told to get the money at all
hazards.
The debtors gave the lad a check for
ESQ. He went to the bank at once and
oashed 1t, and was told by the cashier
that there was not enough funds to
meet it.
How much short?" asked the lad.
Thirty shillings," was the answer
1t lacked but a minute or two Of the
time for the bank to close. The boy felt
In his pocket, took out 30 shillings and,
pushing the money through the window,
said:
Put that to the credit Of - G. Co"
The cashier did so, whereupon the boy
presented the check and got the money.

chagrin can be better imagined than de-
scribed when they found out the trick
that had been played upon them.
