Queen Victoria. She Is, therefore, a
niece of King Edward and as much
English as German But she loves
Greece, and in the palace of the king
of Greece, her father-in-law, she is thor
oughly at home. She likes the beau
tiful Queen Olge. her mother-in-law,
and has shared with her many public
triumphs.
All the grandchildren of Queen Vic
toria have literary aspirations, and
Crown Princess Sophia is no excep-
ton. She has written a little and
done it very well. And now she longs
to appear more extensively in public
literature. She has undertaken the
writing of a book. just when it will
be done no one knows, not even the
crown princess herself. But the fact
that she is writing it makes her in
teresting. "She longs to join the
ranks of studious queens ard be
known as Sophia the literary" says a
court 1ady.

Miss Blanch Grey, 174 Alabama
street, Memphis, Tenn, a society Wom-
an of Memphis, writes:
''To a society woman whose nervous
force is often taxed to the utmost from
lack of rest and irregular meals I
know of nothing which is of so much
benefit as Peruna. I took it a few
giving away, and it soon made itself
manifest in giving me new strength
and health.''-MisS Blanch Grey.
Mrs. K. Schneider, 24o9 Thirty-sev-
enth Place, Chicago. Ill, writes:
"After taking several remedies with

catarrh, and I believe that received

I cannot thank you enough for my

Peruna cures catarrh wherever To-

pEcuL1AR1T1Es OF SLEEP.
The Body Almost Invariably Assumes
the Position to Which 1t Is
Accustomed.

There are few persons who can tell
Offhand just what positions they as
sumo to invite sleep, and yet there is
not an individual in the world who
has not some trick of distributing
limbs and trunk to insure slumber's
blissful spell which he practices un-
consciously. This, says the Family
Doctor, is a night habit, as perpetual
and immutable under normal condi-
tions as the succession of the sea-
sons. No sooner are we really off to
the land of nod than the night habit
asserts its dominion. Our hands and
arms seek the same parts of the bed
or the same portions of our bodies
upon which they have nightly rested
since infancy; our feet and legs
stretch at the same angles or loose
" entwine in comfortable relaxation,
as commanded by unconscious will.
It is seldom of our own deliberate
volition that we place our bodies in
position for sleep, as you will find
tonight on going to bed if you re-
member these words. In truth, il
YOU do not seek to combat the in
stincts you will be surprised at the
dispositions of the various members
involuntarily made. If you endeavor
to go to sleep by new arrangement
of the body you will also be sur
prised by the revolt against slumber
which will surely ensue, but even be-
fore the struggle is well begun you
will probably surrender and permit
the all-masterfuI night habit to re-
instate those little details of position
which long practice has made neces-
sary to your comfort.

Long Journey of a spoon.

A curious find has. just been made at
Samrishamn, in Sweden. At low water
a sailor discovered among the stones
on the beach of Massakasbay there a
teaspoon of brass. After cleaning it he
found engraved on the inside the pic
ture of a man-of-war, with the. words
Maine and $3.50 tons" The spoon
would therefore appear to have be-
lohged to the ill-fated Maine, sunk in
Havana harbor in the spring of 1898,
and it needed four years for the ocean
currents to wash this tiny object
ashore on the coast of southern Swe-
dem. Y. Sun.

rHE POTATO AS A MEDICINE.
Consadered especially BeneacisI to
Patients suReriHE from Certain
Forms OF Diabetes.

The good results of administering
potatoes in certain forms of diabetes
Ere affirmed by a French physician,
Dr.. Mosse, who states that he has eff
fected cures by this means, says
Literary Digest. an. Mosse thinks
says Revue Scientifique, that this
treatment probably acts by alkali-
nization of the humors, in the same
way as the treatment by the alkaline
mineral waters of Vichy; besides
this, potatoes contain eyeglasses, and
bring to the tissues ferments~ favor
able to those oxidations that are
habitually retarded in diabetic pa
TENTS. The quantity of potatoes
that should be taken by the invalid
varies from two and one-half to three
times that of the bread eaten. But
altered potatoes should not be en-
ployed; when jeIlied. they contain
sugar; in too warm a medium they
begin to sprout and their germinat ton
also develops sugar, as well a 500
ianin.'
The writer remarks that in the
| spring, when potatoes are scarce and
not very good, potato-bread may be
used to advantage, although little
known. This is prepared by mixing in
proportions varying from one-quarter
to one-third, wheat flour with mashed
potatoes. This food tastes enough
like ordinary bread 10 make it palata-
bic to persons who feel that they must
have plenty of the latter. The use
of the potato instead of bread deprives
the body of certain useful phoSphates
that are contained in the latter; but
this objection may be removed, we are
told, by adding eggs to the diet, es-
peciaily the yolks,

PRINCETON, Dec. DR.. A. +. Ortmann
Of the school of science here recently
received from John NJ Clarke, New York
/ State paln ont ologist for Identification the
body of an octcpus-like creature taken
from Onondaga Lake. He has Just COM

the Atlantic coast from Cape Cod to New

The specimen examined by DR.. Ortmann
| differs from the ocean-bred squid in only
one particular, and that is in the absence
of certain delicate membranous folds on the
powerful arms that stretch out in front of
the diminutive head. The absence Of
these folds may DO real variation in the
Onondaga Lake specimen, but DR.. Ortmann
is inclined to believe that the membrane
has been lost through abrasion or i'm
perfect preservation. In every other re-
spect the New York squid appears to be
identical with those found in the north
Atlantic.
The creature is said to Ina we been caught
by a Mr.. Terry of Syracuse when he was
fishing with net in shallow water for
minnows, and several Of his fellow citizens
have vouched for the genuineness of the

said to have been taken near the spot
where Mr.. Terry caught his, by a man
named Long. Both squids were taken
from the lake alive.
