King Alfonso Manifests Signs Of Insanity.

It is feared that King Alfonso, OF
Spain is insane. A Madrid dispat, h
OF last week says that he continues to
embarrass his encourage by his un
conventional doings. Visiting the
Cathedral OF Leon he shocked the holy
men of the place by facetious remarks
about the saints whose remains are
treasured in chests. He then went up
to the organ loft to play a chant.
Suddenly he struck up a march and
cried out loudly, Attention, quick
march,"

jumped fence and commanded the
aged dean to follow his example, but
graciously excused the deans disobed.

possible for the aged dignitary. These
recent pranks and eccentricities add
force to the gossip started by previous
outbreaks and fears are openly ex.
pressed concerning his sanity.

The ChanSelinS Child.
The Scientific Explanation Of
the Change Formerly At
tributed to the Fairies.

In folk lore stories there is frequent
mention Of changelings - children who
were changed by fairy influence Some
loving wife and proud husband found
their child weak of body, and some
times weak OF mind II grew up to
be fretful, sullen and perhaps spiteful
1t seemed impossible that love could
bring such a child into the world.
So the child was called fairy change
ling, a child substituted by the fairies
for one whom in their envy for its lovli-
ness they had carried away.
We hear no more of fairy stories

lovely children must have healthy par

Winter Bouquets.

Dried grasses, pressed ferns, pressed
flowers, autumn leaves, everlasting
flowers, cattails and many other beau
tlful things may be prepared during
the long summer days to brighten our
homes during winter.
The best way SO cure grasses and
grains is by sticking the stems in a
box of dry sand. In this way they
cure in their natural graceful positions
and do not have that stiff appearance
as when dried with heads down.
They keep their color better if gath
cred just before they are ripe.
All of the wild grasses are pretty for
winter decoration, and there are many
varieties as we'll as different colors and
shades. Oats, wheat, barley, cheat,
etc, are all pretty.
There are many pretty berries found
in the woods that keep we'll. Those Of
the bittersweet, sweetbriar, wild rose,
pigeonberries and many others are
found in most localities.
Cattails should be cut before they
are fully ripe, otherwise they are very
troublesome in the house.
The foliage OF the rosebush, ferns
and bright autumn leaves when nicely
pressed make pretty ornaments. Be
sure to gather some bright red leaves
of the woodbine and sumach.
If goldenrod is picked just before
the buds open, and dried in the dark,
it will keep its color and the buds will
expand as it dries; this is also true of
many chrysanthemums. Wild flowers
should be dried quickly to preserve
their beauty. Many seed pods are
also quite ornamental.
When making up your bouquets, ar
range the grasses and leaves, then
place the berries and flowers among
them.
II any have short stems they may be
glued to small twigs that will bring
them to the required height.
Do not crowd too many in the vase
or they will not be so pleasing. Have
enough so that when one bouquet be-
comes dusty it may be thrown away
and fresh one take its place.
The time to prepare for winter is
during the summer. Seeds of briza,
agrostis and other fine grasses, also OF
everlasting flowers should be sown At
least by midsummer, to have cutting
material by autumn. And the wild
grasses, ferns and everlastings must be
cut and cured at the proper season in
summer to have fine specimens for
winter decoration.

George promptly.
The first young man was dazed, and
then he appealed to couple of type

They sweetly assured him that the
bowl contained celery.
Then he turned to . man at the end

"What do you say it isl" he de-
