WATCH OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.
Heirloom Treasured by Descendants of
Mary Setoun. FaYorite Maid.

The descendants of Mary Setoun, one
or the four maids of honor to Mary
queen of Scots, have in their possession
q curious watch, which was given by
that queen TO her favorite. The watch,
which Is in the shape of a miniature
skuii, is about two inches and half in
diameter. IT is supposed TO have been
purchased by Mary herself when ON
visit to Blois with her husband. the
dauphln Of France, as it has the name
OF celebrated BloiS manufacturer eu-
graved on It.
The entire skull is curiously engraved
On the forehead there is a picture of
death, with the usual scythe and hour
glass. lie is depicted as standing be-
tween palace and a howell, to show that
ne IS no reSpecter of persons, and under
neath is the familiar quotation from
Horace: "Pallida mors aequo pulsat pede
pauperum tabernas Regumque turres"
AT the back of the skull is another rep
resentau0n, this one being of time de-
vouring everything. Time also carries n
scythe and beside him is the emblem OF
eternlty-the serpent with its tail in its
mouth
The upper section of the skull is divid-
ed into two pictures. On one side is the
crucihxion with the Marys kneeling at
the foot of the cross, and on the other
side are Adam and Eve surrounded by
animals in the garden of Eden.
Below these pictures, running right
round the skull. there is an openwork
band, to allow the sound Of the striking
Of the watch to be heard. The openwork
is a series of designs cut to represent the
various emblems of the crucihxlon, such
as scourgeS, the cross, swords, spears,
the lantern used in the garden, and so
forth. All OF the carvings have appro-
pirate Latin quotations.
By reversing the skull and holding the
upper part in the palm of the hand and
lifting the under jaw on its hinges the
watch may be opened and on the plate
inside is a representation of the stable at
Bethlehem, with the shepherds and their
tiocks in the distance.
The works of the watch are in the
brains of the skull, the dial plate being
where the roof of the mouth would be in
a real skull, This Is of silver and gold,
with elaborate scrolls, while the hours
are marked in large Roman letters. The
works are remarkably complete, even In
a large silver bell with g musical sound,
which holds the works in the skull when
the watchsis closed.
This curious old watch is still in per
feet order and when wound every day
keeps accurate time. 1t is too large II
be worn and was probably intended for n
desk or private altar.-'rit- Bits.

Doing Great Work.

Florisant, Mo. Dec. 19.-(SpeciaL)-
That Dodd's Kidney Pills are doing a
great work in curing the more terrible
forms of Kidney Disease, such as
Bright's Disease, Dropsy and Diabetes,
everybody knows. But it must also be
noted that they are doing a still greater
work in wiping out thousands of cases
of the earlier stages of Kidney Disease
Take, for instance, Mrs. Peter Bar
teau of this place. She says:
Il have been subject to pains in my
back and knees for about three years.
but since 1 have been taking Dodd's
Kidney Pills l have been entirely
cured"
Others here tell similar stories. In
fact il this part of Missouri there are
scores of people who have cured the
early symptoms of Kidney DiseasS
with Dcdd's Kidney Pills. The use o.
the Great American Kidney Remedy
thus saved not only the lives Of Kid
ney Disease victims, but thousands OF
other Americans from years of suffer

Awaited Themselves of Leap Year.

The young women of Kenosha, Wis,
took every advantage of the leap wear
and the opportunities which 1t offered
them to become wives, as the report of
the marriages in that county for the past
twelve months shows an increase of thir-
ty-seven over the previous twelve months.
During the year ending on December l
there were 292 weddings. There is one
interesting fact in connection with the
records and That is that 13S of these mar
riages were performed on orders or spe-
cial permits issued by the county Judge.
The Kenosha brides and grooms have
not as yet been able to get away from the
old lax Wisconsin marriage laws and
many Of them have sought to have the
marriage performed by the county Judge,
as IN this way the weddings were carried
out without any publicity.

HOW TO FIND GROUSE.
Uncertain Birds, to Which Rules Do Not
Always Apply.

The ruffed grouse is one of the uncer-
tain birds to which no hard and fast
rules will apply, yet he has a few small
peeuiarities of which advantage may be
taken. In wild, heavy woodland, his
original haunt, he has a weakness for
two things-an old tote road, or any sell
dom-used road, and the bank of a stream.
A man trying a bit of woods with which
he Is unacquainted probably will see
more grouse near an old road than any
where else. In hilly country, the lower
slopes of the rayines are apt to be the
best of ground. In level country, the
long strips of thicket bordering large
blocks of standing timber are ideal
places, and il the thicket happens To
mark the edge of a clover field so much
the better. Never pass even a small
thicket which stands out in a clover field
with wood upon any side. Grouse are
fond of clover, and until winter sets in
are apt to be in any fair shelter near the
held. Later, in snowtime, the borders
and interior of large woodland swamps
are the chosen places. If there be a
region of thick, low-lying forest, having
close grown beech ridges here and there
these surely will repay the labor of beat
ing them, for they are almost certain to
be the stronghOlds of all the ruffed
grouse of the neighborhood Old wind
falls and slashings are good, because
they afford acres OF the sort of shelter
the birds prefer in cold weather. Should
single bird flush, proceed warily and
ready for instant action, for q second,
and perhaps three or four, stragglers may
be within gunshot of the spot. Ground
good for one bird may be as attractive to
three or four, although each individual
remains some slight distance from the
others. When beating border thickets
with comrade, prefer to work in the
cover about along the line where thicket
and forest join. Most men will choose
the outside but ruffer grouse almost in
variably dash for the wood, hence across
the line of fire of the inside man. Such
shots are none too easy, and trees have
a knack of getting in the way. yet as a
general thing the inside position means
the most fuu.-Outing.
