Ellen Terry, the famous English ac-
tress, In the kindness Of her heart once
took girl out Of the poorhouse to train
hopeless and was continually breaking
plates dishes and everything she laid
hands ON, until Miss Terry thought that
in time she might break her, so she dis
missed her But, not wishing the girl
to come to any harm, when she was go

going to do for living. "Oh," she
said disdainfully, eff the wust come to

Old English Customs.

Sir Walter Besant's study of old Eng
lish customs shows that the doctors Of
several centuries ago prescribed for
fevers "a cold water affusion' with
drinking of asses milk When the
queen WAS III il: 1868 they shaved her
head and applied pigeons to her feet.
Powdered mummy for a long time was
to be a specific against dis
eases. 1t said that the reason it
went out Of use was that dealers took
to embalming bodies and then sold
them for genuine ancient mummies.

Why They Waited,

A story is told which couples the
names of Princess Mathilde and the
great painter Gerome. The princess
and the painter had both been invited
to dinner party. The princess arrived
long after the dinner hour was past.
The guests concealed their impatience
as best they could, until at last the
princess suddenly said: why. l nearly
forgot. Only this morning l received
a telegram from Gerome, who is in
Spain. He is unable to come tonight"
But why ID you not tell US before.

4 FAREWELL LETTER
[Original.l

tOriginaL1
Billy Bowen and | were lieutenants
on the old wooden United States ship
V. when she sailed into the harbor of
Nagasaki Japan. 1t was soon after
the civil war. and we had got our pro-
motion rapidly. neither of us yet being
twenty seven years Old. Billy was in a
fever of excitement, for his girl was at
Eagasaki. and he was going ashore to
meet her. lie insisted that | should
go with him, and We succeeded in get
ting leave among the first batch of Off
GERS permitted to go ashore. Billy met
his girl and persuaded her to marry
him before he returned 10 bis ship
The wedding OF course was u very
hasty affair Miss Etheridge was an
orphan and was il company Of friends
who Were not related 10 her.
She could marry whom she pleased
without consulting, Any one, NeFerthe-
less | saw that There was hitch in
her happiness. s;i!o WAS Ve3E much in
love with BiI!y--I ea''i5i see chat plain
ly-but for some reason or other appear
ed not to Wish to luarry HIM. Il /
have aay oua tr,eit 10 bl thankful for,
it is aa ability - refrain from pryin4
into other peoples a:lsi:l~ noticed
all this in Miss lstiIeiel&e but made
40 inquiries. There We're ut the cpre=
meny, which took place at Il hotel. 4
Mrs. Northington. a widow, and her
daughter Clara, Tie people With whom
Miss Etherdse Was travelling, and my
self. Billy was the happiest man il
the world, the only thing to mar his
happiness being that his honeymoon
must be deferred till the END of the
cruise, which would not be for several
months. Then the bride and groom
were to meet in America, Billy was to
get long leave, which would then be
due him, and they We're to go on an eX-
tended land tour
felt sorry for the couple when they
separated, as they did within an hour
after the ceremony. The ship was on
ly touching at Nagasaki, and Billy and
1 were expected back in twelve hours
from the beginning Of our leave There
was long adieu, the bride cinging to
her sailor boy till he was obliged to re-
lease himself from her embrace. On
our way back Billy volunteered the in
formation that the reason of his witn's
having been reluctant to marry Hin
was because in doing so She would
probably lose fortune. B;.iy said
that the wedding was to be K apt secret
till he met his wife in America, when
they were to break the matter as op-
portunely as possible to some one from
whom the fortune might come. Hs
ended his remarks by requesting me
to keep mum. OF course l promised.
Not long after leaving Japan we put
into Hongkong. Billy was taken i'll
with some cursed Chinese fever, and
1t was decided to send him ashore to
a hospital. He was a great favorite
with the captain, who, knowing of our
friendship, sent me with him to look
out for him. Billy died in two days.

When he knew he was doomed, he
wrote a few lines on bit Of paper
which he folded and handed to me,

seal it. l did so, and he wrote his

handed the message to me, charging
me with It's delivery.
l did not have Mrs Bowen's address
or l would have sent the note to her
