ola rime Pri.e money,

Sea battles at the present time do not
result in such great rewards of prize
money as formerly. English sailors In
times past have brought great fortunes
home after their successful cruises. In
the war with Holland, 1651-54, Eng
lish ships are said to have taken LOO
prizes, worth $3O.OGO.0OO. In 1857 tho
Spaniards loaded British sailors with
treasure. They seized two of the Span
ish galleons so richly laden with gold
and jewels that 1t took thirty eight
wagons to carry the treasure from
Portsmouth to London. In 1761 came
the historic capture Of the Hermione,
the Spanish treasure ship from Lima.
The admirals and captains received us
their share 1926, 600 apiece, the lieuten-
ants $65,OOO, warrant officers about
$4,000, petty officers nearly $4,000
and even the common seamen $500
each. On arriving at Portsmouth the
seamen bought up all the watches 4
the place and fried them over the gal
ley fire.

Excr neud a cento nook,

'This volume" said the bibliophile,
lis cento. 1t is composed of detach-
ed sentences taken from the works Of
Thackeray. 1t makes novel, sensible,
but short, and it was composed in sew
en- years by bedridden baroness. The
best known cento is probably the EN-
press Eudoxia's Life of Christ made
entirely of lines from Homer. There is
a similar life, composed by Ross, that
consists wholly of detached lines from
Virgil. Centos are often very valuable.
One compiled by Alexander Hamilton
from Milton's Paradise Lost sold not
long since for $500. The book was a
history of America"

Some boys in an English school were
asked the other day to define editor"
Here are some of their definitions: IAN
editor is man who handles words, y
IAN editor makes his living out Of the
English language" San editor is some
body who does not do anything him
self, and when somebody else does
goes and tells other people all about
it." IAN editor is n man who has the
industry Of beaver, the instincts of n
bee and the patience of an ass"

A Plague of cnterpillar..

OF the plague of caterpillars that
overran the Scottish lowlands in 1854
Richard Bell in his book MY Strange
Pets" says, 1.-THE caterpillars marched
In armies straight ahead, and the con-
sequence was that when they encoun-
tered sheep drains,' which are open
drains about eighteen inches deep and
eighteen inches wide at the top, they
tumbled into them in such numbers
that their dead bodies damned up the
water and they might have been taken
out in barrow loads"

The verb collar" has long been used
transitively. meaning to seize or take
hold of a person by the collar; moro
loosely, to capture" The verb was
thus employed early in the seventeenth
century Steele, in the Guardian, No.

collar any man" Other instances are:
Gentleman's Magazine, lTG2. Ills lord

How Dnnting Advertised His Cure.
An amusing story is told by the writ
er Of some "Recollections of Royalty"
Of IN interview between the late Ouch
ess Of Teck, who was somewhat In
clined toward embonpolnt, and William
Banting, who made himself famous
many years ago by recommending a
course of diet for the reduction Of cor
pulency, which has been named from
him "banting."
The duchess, who naturally expected
to see thin man, was surprised Mt Mr..
Banting's ample proportions.
"Your system does not appear to
have made you very thin, Mr.. Bant-

IF you will allow me, madam, will
undeceive you." Mr.. Banting said. TAX

the slender proportions Of the real

Every little while-once in a month or

on Saturday night and engage a room.
Sometimes they go to the theater, but
more often they simply remain in their

their real treat as they call it, which
is nothing more than breakfast in bed.

Why Suffer From Rheumatism9

Why suffer from rheumatism when
one application of Chamberlain's

quick relief which his IMMINENT af-
fords makes rest and sleep possible,
and that alone is worth many times
its cost. Many who have used il hop
ing only for a short relief from suffer
ing have been happily surprised to
find that after awhile the relief be-
came permanent. Mrs. V. H. Leggett,

THE OHIO PLATFORM.

The Ohio state convention has
written the first Republican platform
Of the year, and it may well be taken
as an index to wha all of the Repub-
lican state platforms will express. 1t
begins with a boast as to what Presi-
lent Roosevelt is trying to do, pro
misses enforcement of existing laws
covering railway rates and discrinli-
nations, and favors such further leg
station as may seem. after investiga
ion, to the Republican congress and
Republican administration to be
wise and conservative
1t is evident that the enforcement
# existing laws is a failure, and that
President Roosevelt alone can do lit
tie more than write urgent messages.
Then, what is there in the balance
of the Republican declaration? They
say that they favor further legisla
ton. "such as congress and the ad-
ministration may consider wise and
conservative" They have nothing
definite to offer, no stated plan or
object-the same Die generaIities and
fantastic ~fapdoodle, expressed IN Ian
