a Queer as a Shopper.

The Queen, the Princess OF Wales,
Princess Charles of Denmark and
Princess Victoria walked from the
castle into Windsor yesterday after
noon and did some shopping.
The Processes filled their pockets
with lovely things, the royal party
staying in the shops considerable
time. "They give as little trouble as
possible said Mr.. Barber; 'and it is
a real pleasure to wait on them" The
Queen and the Princesses would not
even trouble the shopkeeper to have
some of the things wrapped in paper.
They simply put the small purchases
into their pockets and asked for the
larger things to- be sent ON to Ne
castle.
Her Majesty and the Princesss !;
did not pay for their purchases in
hard cash, but the Queen remarked
to one tradesman,. "You can trust
me?" They seemed to- make light
of the unpropitious weather and The,
wet pavemelts, and tramped along,
quite gay1y, holding an animated con-
versation and frequently stopping to-
look at the wares displayed in the
shop windows Of the High street,

an infant was born and lived for
three weeks with a hole through its
heart. Thousands of us are color
blind, others have no musical sense.
And there are many Laura Bridg-
mans, many Helen Kellers. The
queen of Roumania has or had at her
court in personal attendance upon
herself the daughter of a blind noble
man. She could neither hear nor
speak and had to be taught to COM
municate by holding the throat of
speaker and initiating the vibration
produced by the effort But what
grudge against nature must such
one as Lyon Playfair discca cred ever
feel!
Here was a girl who was blind,
deaf, dumb and could neither taste
nor smell. One might be pardoned.
for asking if such a life was worth
living. Yet there was a beautiful les
son in such an existence, as the great
warm heart Of Playfair discovered.
He sent her pretty finger ring, and
the poor mite replied in this pitifully
pretty letter: Dear Sir Lyon Play
fair; Sir Lyon Playfair sent Edith
ring in box. - Edith thank Sir Lyon
+ Playfair for ring. Sir Lyon Playfair
come to see Edith. Good-by. Edith"
During his visit the child had closely
examined his hands, wrists, arms and
face, her touch being marvellou5ly
accurate. A year later he went again,
to see her. At first she did not recog-
nize him and no one betrayed his
identity. At length she turned back
the cuff of his shirt and touched his
wrist. Her face lit up with intense,
joy. 1T is the Englishman who gave
me the ring" she rapidly spelled out
on her fingers. And in second she
had flung her little arms around his
neck and was weeping with delight
at the recognition.-St James Ga
zette.

Lad Changes His Plea.

After Anton Wicks, Is years old, had
pleaded guilty in Eau Claire to murder
In the first degree, he was remanded to
fail. An hour later it was announced
that Wicks would change his plea to
mot guilty" and that the claim Of self
defense would be set up. 1t appears
that Wicks did not fully understand
what it meant to plead guilty and sup
posed that lie was only admitting that
he killed His father. He acknowledges
that he shot the old man to death and
dragged the body into the house, which
had been set on fire, he says, by the
overturning of the stowe during the first
struggle, and he admitted that he blew
up the blazing house with dynamite, but
he claims the trouble was begun by his
father, who tried to. kilt him.

Long-Lost Brother Fcasnd.

After a separation since early boy
hood, forty-eight years ago, and after
losing trace of each other entirely during
all that time, Richard Jessmer of Apple
ton is entertaining the lost brother,
Frank, Of Habing, Mimi. Advertise
ments frequently inserted i'm the news
papers in an effort to find each other
proved of no avail. The fact that Rich
ard Jessmer owned property along the
Great Northern road and Richards CONF
ing upon a man who lived on one Of
these pieces Of land, led to, the reunion.
Frank, the western man, left homs dur

been all over the west since that time.

Lawmaker 100 Years Old.

The Tooth anniversary of the birth
of Senator David Warls, Ill. d., of
Frederic&town, N. b., was observed
recently He is believed to be the
oldest legislator in the world. In
honor of the occasion the mayor and
corporation of Frederictown presented
the senator with an address and a
luncheon. Many guests, including
public men, members of the bar,
clergymen and government officials,
were guests of the city. DR.. Wark
enjoys good health-his only inf1rm-
ity is slight deafness-and expects
to make the long journey to Ottawa
in March, when parliament assem-
bles. He has never missed attend
ing a session of the Senate since he
became a member Of it in 1876. Sen
ator Wark is a good walker, and he
seldom rides from his hotel to the
parliament buildings.
The venerable legislator was born
in Londonderry, Ireland, of Scotch
parents. He entered the New Bruins
wick legislature in 1912, and since
that time has been a member of some
legislative body.

A WOMAN'S CHARM.
Quality of the Soul, Not of the Mind
or the Eody.

Ouaiity OF the Souls NOT or the MIND
or the BODY.
A group of ladies, one afternoon,
were discussing the question of charm
in womanhood. The argument had
been started by remark Of one Of the
group concerning a certain woman
whose 20 years had in nowise lessened
her sympathy with youth. nor her i'm
terest in "all living"
"She must have been such an en-
chanting girl" the speaker said.
THAT does not necessarily follow"
another woman replied promptly, and
then she smiled at the indignant and
incredulous faces turned upon her.
What l mean to say" she explain
ed, lis that this lovely and subtle
thing that we call charm is the nat
ural bI0ssOming of womanhood - the
beauty that should crown it, that /
believe is meant to crown it sooner or
later, in every life. But all plants do
not blossom at the same season; there
are many-deIicate fragile things
that win our hearts for few brief
spring days, and then vanish; there are
others that wait the touch of frost for
their miracle, and others still that
bloom the whole year round. Which
things, my sisters, are a parable. The
most charming woman I ever knew
had had cold and reserved girlhood,
and repressed young womanhsod.
She was 80 before the Towering time
came; it was worth waiting for"
The Indignant faces had softened,
and the incredulols frightened before
the end of the parable" One after
another similar instances followed:
1.-THE most charming woman ever
knew was the plainest."
'The' most charming ONE i'm large
circle of relatives is the one who was
notoriously shy and awkward till long
after youth was past
When for curiosity a Vote was taken
concerning the age of '.the most charm
ing woman I know" it was discovered
that it average 20 years.
The dictionary defines charm as
shat which has the power to subdue
opposition and gain affectionAthat
which delights and attracts the
heart The secret lies in the last
phrase. Charm-real charms a
quality of the soul, not of the mind or
the body, anGl the soul Knows no such
thing as age.

THE COMMON PLIGHT.


There is no man, however poor his lot
But holds one thing too dear to be
forgot,
There is no man, whatever be his fate,
But sees one thing that's his, or soon
or late,
Yet neither can, while hope or memory
lives,
Give up his all for what another gives.
There is no man, how sad so e'er he
be,
But fancies that some one for him
would flee.
There is no man, how glad so mote
he sing,
But longs for, above all, some hidden
thing
Yet neither can, while friends abide
them still
Give up the cup should each at Marah
fill.
There is no man, nor ever was, I know,
Who could on friend a costlier gift
bestow,
Than once he got in earlier, happier
days,
From one whose charms he's long
since ceased to praise
There is no man-but why the theme
repeat?
Fen while we muse the play of life's
complete. H. V.
