make favorable progress.
London, June 26.-The following Off
ctal bulletin on the condition of the
King was issued at 1915 this morning:
His majesty had better night and
had some refreshing sleeps. He is i'm
proved in all respects. His constitu-
tional condition is quite favorable. The
state of the wound is also satisfactory >
Two o'clock bulletin: kings condi-
tion still remains satisfactory
The duke of Connaught who called
at the palace this morning, said:
News concerning the king is most
encouraging. His pulse and tempera-
ture are normal and his condition on
the whole is most satisfactory"
The kings progress in convalescence
ton in all official circles. His majesty
is already displaying the greatest in
terest in all public questions and is ex-
pressing his gratitude over the evil
oences of the worlds solicitude by
opening number of kilograms with his
own hands. The king saw several
members of his family during the
morning. In most of the churches
thruout the land today services which
were to commemorate the coronation of
the king are taking place in the form of
intercessory services.
The British Medical Journal says:
sShould the kings symptoms pursue
the course they have hitherto followed
there is good reason to hope for his
majesty's restoration to health. Owing
to the nature of the affection and the
character of dressings used, it is in
cyitable that his convalescence should
be somewhat prolonged, but we believe
If no complications arise there is no rea-
son to fear his recovery will not be
complete"
Absence of ambiguity in the language
OF the medical bulletins this morning
which, unlike previous statements, has
no qualifying Phrases, has done much
to restore confidence in the public mind
ir regard to the outcome of the kings
illness.
Improvement in the kings condition
this morning was most marked. Every
body in Buckingham palace is delighted
and high hopes are entertained that his
convalescence will be much more
speedy even than expected last night
AT No time has there haen any Seri-
GUS suggestion of the establishment of
regency. The most that was done was
IN the way of pure speculation, a sug-
gestion that the prince of Wales might
act for his father as king Edward (then
prince of Wales) frequently did for
Queen Victoria in former days and.
particularly, during her last illness, but
without his having formally been ap-
pointed regent.

A career Ending Joke.

/ This Is true story about one OF the
mayors of Kansas City. He was mayor
when the incident occurred. not so very
many years ago. Two newspaper men,
both very good friends OF the mayor,
were about to leave town, and they
asked Mr.. Mayor to help them cele-
brate their departure.
1t was hot day in summer, and aft
er an hour or two Of convivial indul-
gence the mayor of Kansas City was
very much under the influence Of liz
nor. The newspaper men were feeling
jovial, but they were still able to walk
around. 1t finally became necessary to
do something for the mayor. Seeing a
fruit wagon pass. one Of the newspaper
men ran out and hailed the driver.
When he drew up to the curb, he was
asked whether or not he wanted to
make So. He replied that he most GER
tainly did.
It was then explained to him that a
drunken man would be stretched out in
his wagon, face toward the sky, and
that he must drive through all the bust
ness streets Of the town and then take
the man home.
Not knowing who his passenger was
to be, the driver consented, and the
Joke was carried out to the letter.
Through the streets Of Kansas City the
mayor of the town, stretched out on an
open wagon asleep, was driven, and
there was placard that announced the
cause of the strange plight fastened
on the back Of the wagon. The mayor
was not reelected. Chronicle.

The Legend of the snowdrop.

An old legend gives the following az
the origin of the snowdrop: After Ad-
am and Eve had been driven from the
garden Of Eden Eve was disconsolate.
One day as she sat silently grieving an
angel appeared and sought means to
comfort her. She longed for the flow
ers, but the fast descending snow was
wrapping the barren earth in a robe OF
white.
AS the angel stood and spoke words
Of hope to the weeping, repentant wom-
an he caught a snowflake, breathed
gently upon it and said:
"Take form, pure snowflake, bud and
blossom and be comfort to humanity,
now and forever"
In a twinkling the snowflake changed
into a beautiful flower, as white and
pure as the snow itself, and when Eve
beheld the newborn blossom gladness
and hope came to her heart, and she
smiled through her tears.
Having fulfilled his mission of love.
the angel departed, but where he had
stood there Immediately sprung up q
circle Of perfect snowdrops.

was revealed the majestic size OF the
continent. for. with the exception OF
the Amazon and the Orinoco, no Amer

power and grandeur.
AS the Frenchmen inquired the
names of the Indian villages along the
banks they were answered Canada

Judge z. Boyd Faulkner has grant
ed writ of certiorari in the contested
election case of Doll VS.. Bender, candi-
dates for county clerk of Berkeley
county. This will bring the case up
to the circuit court at the next regular
term, in January, with all the records
and proceedings in the county conrt
for review by that court.
On the face Of the returns at the
recent election Bender was elected
clerk of the county court by majority
of 4, and on a recount demanded by
Doll, his Democratic opponent, his
majority was increased to IL. There
were several ballots rejected and OBJ
iected to in the recount before the
county court, and it is said by Dolls
attorneys that the ballots rejected will
elect Doll by at least 10. The case
will likely be taken to the Supreme

An Holian Harp,

To make an aolian harp construct
box of very thin pine, cedar or other
wood, five or six inches deep, seven or
eight inches wide, with length equal
to that of the window in which it Is to
be placed. Across the top, near each
end, glue a strip Of wood half an inch
high and a quarter Of an inch thick
for bridges. Into the ends Of the box
insert wooden pins, like those Of vio-
lin, to wind the strings around, two
pins in each end. Make sound hole
in the middle Of the top and string the
box with small catgut or first fiddle
strings. Fastening one end OF each
string to a metallic pin in one end OF
the box and carrying it over the
bridges, wind it around the turning pin
In the opposite end Of the box. Tune
the strings In unison and place the box
in the window. 1t Is better to have
four strings, but harp with single
string produces an exceedingly sweet
melody.

Laugh.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is
better than medicine. Learn Low to
tell story. A well-told story is as
welcome as a sunbeam in sick room.
Learn to keep your own troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to
care for your ills and SORROWS. Learn
to stop croaking. If you cannot see
any good in the world, keep the bad
to yourself. Learn to hide your pains
and aches under pleasant smile. No
one cares to hear whether you have
the earache, headache or rheumatism.
Don't cry. Tears do well enough IN
novels, but they are out of place IN
real life. Learn to meet your friends
with a smile. A good-humored man
or woman is always welcome, but the
dyspeptic or hypochondriac, is not
wanted anywhere, and is a nuisance
as well.
