"HERBEs o. VERTUE."
Rosemary and Rue Held High Estate
Among the Ancients.

Among the AncientS.
OF high rank among the ancient and
medieval 'herbes O. vertue" was rue.
This plant, "the herb of grace" prob
ably gained it's reputation for break
ing the spells of witchcraft, because it
was so often employed for sprinklIng
holy water. Spenser includes this
herb In the ingredients of charm by
which the aged nurse endeavored to
change the current of Britomart's
thoughts when she fell in love with the
image Of Sir Artegal in magic mir
ror. Another favorite amulet was YER
vain, the holy herb, which was much
used in ancient religious rites and sub
sequently for decorating the affairs Of
churches. Roman heralds always
crowned their heads with vervain
when they either declared war or made
a truce.
Rosemary was valued for it's powers
Of strengthening a weak memory;
hence it became the symbol of remem-
brance. Rosemary was also used as
love charm. the reason being "both
'ChuC, uuc lONC SOQuSSS, dstu TOSe-
mary, or sea dew, were offspring Of
the sea, and therefore as leye was
beauty's son rosemary was loves near
est relative" Anne Of Cleves wore
sprays of rosemary at her marriage
with Henry VIII, as this flower was
then used by brides instead of orange
blossoms, and wedding guests wore it
Instead Of white favors. Rosemary
was also closely associated with funer-
ais, the mourners each carrying a spray
to drop into the grave at the conclu-
sion Of the service.
Powdered rosemary applied to the
face was supposed to have magical eff
fects for restoring faded beauty, and
bath Of rosemary taken three times a
day was said to restore youth and Wig

RETURNS FROM EAST.
w. J. Donelan Experienced Interesting
Sight at York, Pa, Silk Mills,

From Mondays Daily.
w. j. Donelan, proprietor of the ST.
Louis store, and Mr.. Parks, manager
of the cloak department, returned this
morning from an extended purchasing
trip in New York City and Philadel-
phia, Pa. Mr.. Donelan also visited
the "Moneybak' silk works in York,
Pa, of which he is sole agent for OF
tumwa. In speaking about conditions
IN the east, Mr.. Donelan was very en-
thuslastic. He remarked that things
presented prosperous appearance,
that plenty of money was in circula-
ton and that almost every line of bus
mess was thriving. With reference to
the cotton and wool market, he said
ton demands almost twice as much as
1t did this time last year, while wool
has advanced to noticeable degree. In
Little Falls, N. Y, some of the cotton
mills have closed down, because of lack
of material.
In York, Pa, Mr.. Donelan met with
a novel experience in being shown
through the two large silk mills of the
"Moneybak" Silk Co. Mr.. Donelan
spoke of the perfect process the Mon
eybak' silks went through, of see
ing large bales of raw material from
China and Japan, and of witnessing
the interesting sight afforded by the
running of the powerful machinery into
the two mills as it made up the goods.
With reference to the stock of gar
ments for women which he and Mr..
Parks purchased, Mr.. Donelan empha-
sized on the fur lined garments. The
styles this year are changed from
those of last year in that even walk
Ing lengths will be worn in skirts
while the tight fitting and loose back
jackets will be from forty-f1ve to fifty
inches in length. The Elton style suits
with double vests in all colors is some
thing new purchased by Mr.. Donelan.
These suits are a new thing on the
eastern market being shown but a
week. The vests are in contrasting
cclors to the suiting and are very wide
girdled

as If his pockets were bullying with
money looked at me.
Hello! A second Baldwin, is it.?
he said, and seeing the letter in my
hand took it and read all about my
wonderful case. Then he threw me SIS
and walked on Now you see why
didn't want to give UP the letter for
a receipt for brace at the hospital,
don't you?
Well, | swear it wasn't more than
three minutes when up walked anoth,
ed Teller and sang out like the first:
"Hello! Another Baldwin,
"Then remembered all at once
that there was Teller with broken
neck by the name of Baldwin going
around exhibiting himself in the side
shows of circuses and getting lot of
attention and money for doing it. So
said to the man:
Yes, sir. a second Baldwin, and
here's letter to prove it,
And he gave me dollar.
ITO make long story short, col
lected more than the price of my
brace that day, and quit at o'clock,

For nearly six months l kept up

Feisnns Sickness Profitable.
An equally satisfactory method for
the hobo who is tired of begging, to
get "a series of good meals and good
sleeping quarters is to pretend to be
sick. OF this method one of the best
known of the knights of the road said
recently:
When I want a change of diet or
feel like viewing the passing world
from quiet retreat, fool the police
and ambulance doctors and lay up in
a hospital for couple of weeks. In
hot weather it's dead easy to keel ov-
er in the street and make out that
you've been touched by the heat.Some-
times when my stomach is feeling par
ticularly strong l eat soap and get pal.
pitation of the heart. Sometimes | let
on I've got awful pains all over me-
There are any number of ways of
breaking into the hospital. Getting in
is the principal thing. Once you're
there you can develop all sorts of puz-
zling symptoms that will make inter-
esting study for many of the retired
hoboes who strike this city on their
wanderings are exceptionally intelli-
gent men and interesting takers and
their accounts of their various expert
ences are often very unique.
Their life is a battle of wits and
with their intimate knowledge of hui
man nature they seldom fail to sue
coed to degree which is startling to
the man who believes in working for
what he earns.
