as she had directed, a quantity of gold
and. silver coins, said to amount to
about $4,000, were found under her
mattress. It has always been believed
that this money had been given to the
old woman to keep by horse thieves,
who either had died or been run out
, of the country and had been afraid to
return to get it.
About the early part of the last cen.
tury there were several gangs Of horse
thieves that operated along the coast
from Virginia to Florida, and it was
from the hanging of some of these men
by mob, headed by man named
Lynch, in Virginia, that the term
lynch law" is said to have been de-
rived. Mrs. Prescott lived in very
isolated part of the district, and it has
always been believed that these
thieves used to make her house their
stopping place and gave her the money
to keep and that she was afraid to
tell Of it's possession even on her death.

VITAL IMPORTANCE or SLEEP

sleep, as factor in physical econo-

alton and digestion. Those who live
normally, who throughout all ordinary
exlgencies maintain natural attitude
toward life, its strains and RESPONSE
bllltles, may expect to enjoy a full
measure Of this restorative function.
How much one needs is not to be de-
termined by dogmatic rules or prece-
dents, nor does each one require the
same amount under every condition Or
circumstance. There must be enough,
daily and weekly, and of suitable char
acter, to restore the balance of neural
energy reduced by whatsoever of ia

otherwise the sensorium resents this
deprivation in one way or another
IN those whose lives are full of re-

them for concentration of attention,
the habit Of taking short maps is found
to be most refreshing and invigorating.

"lAlNTED Money! FOR CHARITY

An interesting story is that of what
is known as the prescott Fund" of
Prince Williams parish, now parts OF
Hampton and Beaufort counties, South
Carolina. It seems that in the early
part of the last century an old woman
who lived alone In an isolated portion
of what was then Beaufort District
was on her deathbed, and sent for a
lawyer to draw her will to dispose Of
the little hut and the few acres of land
she had. .@"t
After she had designated to whom
these were to go the lawyer told her
that TO avoid any legal trouble over
her will she should insert clause dis.

use Of the white poor Of Prince Will

than to rub off the seas or the lakes

Sun Flower Seed in Russia.

A traveller says that one of the
first things that struck him on his
arrival in Russia was the enormous
quantity of sunnower seed consumed
in that country. The seeds, which are
oleaginous and have an agreeable
taste, are constantly chewed by the
people. The outer husk is detached
with the teeth and spat out. These
husks are seen scattered about on
pavements and garden walks, in rail
way carriages, tramway cars and
cabs, on the floors of restaurants and
private rooms. On days of public
festivity the ground everywhere is
covered with them. At every street
corner a brisk trade is done in the
seeds by old women.
