Wilbur went from the bedside of his

John had died at the hospital at the

In 1873 John and Wilbur were mar

Of the Sites twins married an elder
sister of the Worth twins, and the two
families were thus connected in man

sons for the prophecy are so cogent
that there is no room for doubt. says
the London Express.

date when the Constitution of The
German Empire" was first framed. and
add the figures. The result is 10. II
this is added to 1910 we get 1S71-the
year when the German Empire was
founded
Now add together the figures of that
year. Result, II. Tack this on to
1871. and 1883 comes out-the year
when Germany lost her first two En-
perogs-the Emperors William and
Frederick.
Repeat the addition process. 1-l-S-l- S-t-S
equals %; 1SSS-l-25 equals 1913.

A annwsoMn cuRr.

Diseases have been treated In many
odd ways in the hope Of cure, says the
London Chronicle. One of the oldest
and most grewsome is alluded to by
the Vicar of Filey in his account of his
walk to Rome. On the way he came
across German, who mentioned,
rather mysterlously, the Hanoverian
method of execution by decapltation.
Being further questioned, he said that
at one of these executions he was in
charge of an epileptic girl. who was
brought there to drink the warm blood
of the executed criminal, as it was
considered an infallible cure for fits.
This took place in 1857, and the man
had in his possession an illustrated
paper of that time which pictured he
incident.

Ailments.
Considerable attention has been at
tracted to the new humane rubber
horseshoe which recently appeared on
the market. The primary object of
shoeing to-day Is, or at least ought to
be, for the purpose of controlling and
directing the growth of the feet so
they can act as a base to support The
limb properly. Lameness in horses
while unshod is often very dissimilar
TO the same ailment while in shod
condition. While unshod the sole Of
the foot Is most likely to suffer, but
when poorly shod the portion above
the sole becomes the centre Of pain,
which causes general disturbance.
A horse often becomes lame because OF
insufficient quantity in the matter OF
