 There is trouble at the Vatican about the Pope's first legacy. A priest of Naples named Mi1oni left his whole for tune, sS0,oo0. to ''the reigning Pope" and died during the interregnum. In consequence Mgr. Rampolla has in structed the papal procurator in legal matters, Signor Galdo, to claim the legacy, but the relatives of Abbe Miloni contest his right and sa.--, with some ap- pearance of justice upon their side, that, as no Pope was living when the abbe died. the $So.0Oo belongs to his natural heirs. The suit is likely to be long and to afford scope for much in- tricate discussion. r@t

The only known survivor of the bar- tie of Waterloo has just died at the little Kentish village of Rolvenden. Mrs. pBarpsUA Moon, who was ninety-two years of age, was the daughter of a color-sergeant of the Third Battalion, Rifle Brigade who took part in the bat ties of Badajos, Salamanca, and Wa terloo. He died two years after Water loo, from the effects of a wound infiict- ed by a nine-pound shot. Mrs. Moon was born at Gibraltar in 1911, and was baptized at Malta. She was present at the battles of Quatre Bras and Water- loo, and, although only four years of age at the time, could in later life re- member having ridden in wagon with her mother across the field of Water- loo after the battle. .., ....

shaftsbury's Treasury Short.

The voters of SALISBURY held a
special meeting Dec. p TO consider
the report of the selectmen regarding
an apparent shortage, which appeared
very soon after his death. in the ac-
counts of Myron Barton, tor 70 years
town treasurer.
The apparent shortage was found
when the Rev. Merrill Hitchcock was
appointed treasurer and who declined
to take the office until he knew where
the funds were and received them. A
careful examination of the books, cash,
etc. was made. and the report made
to the town meeting was to the elect
that the deficiency was S4,so0, but
where it went to the examiners had
not been able to fiud out.
No one has any idea that Mr.. Barton
ever knowingly took one dollar 1fom
the town, but being an old man, his
system OF keeping books was obsolete,
and some errors must have erept in
somewhere. He was a leading mem
her of the Baptist church. His iather
was town treasurer for almost nifty
years before him, and he was one OF
the most respected men in the town.

tendent of the state hospital tor the

insane and that the probabilities are
that he was insane at the time it is

Consumption:

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scots Emulsionisthem
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypoPhos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

DON'T LIKE OUR COINAGE.
The Canadian Manufacturers Woulc
Drive United States Coins Out
Of the Dominion.

Toronto, Sept. 23.-To prevent the
circulation of United States silver in
Canada a resolution was passed at
the meeting of the Canadian Manu-
facturers association ealing upon the
government to remove from circula-
ton and to export all foreign silver
coinage and substitute Canadian
coinage. The reason for this action
is that, apart from the border Ameri-
can cities, Canadian silver coinage is
not taken at par in the United States,
while in any part of Canada American
silver is accepted at it's face value,
except the nickle. 1t is not probable
that the government will take any
action.
The manufacturers here fear the
competition of the American manu-
facturers. A fund has been started
among the members of the associa-
ton to carry on an educational cam
paign with a view to forcing the Can
adam government to erect a tariff
wall against the United States.
