VULCANO'S VOLCANO.
A Natural Weather Prophet and In
faIIibIe at That.


AS a natural weather prophet, and in
fallible at that, the volcano on the is-
land Of Vulcano, twelve miles north Of
Sicily, in the Mediterranean, Is be
lieved TO hold the record. The fol-
lowing Is from an account Of a dinner
given by the Geographical Council
Club of England In 1893: Captain
Wharton, the photographer to the ad-
miralty, told how he had once an
chored in very deep water on the east
side Of Yulcano, the southernmost Of
the Lipari isles, but that he had kept
up steam with the intention of being
Off Immediately If the wind changed to
the east He mentioned this to an
Englishman who lived on the island
and was in charge Of some boraX
works. But said the man, there IS
not the remotest chance Of the wind
going around to the east without full
warning What warning" asked the
other. Oh was the rejoinder, the
volcano always warns us! The vol
canov said Wharton. Yes, the vol
cano. A "fumarone" always emits
whistling sound before the east wind
begins to blow Shortly after this
Wharton was looking at Strabo and,
to his astonishment, found that that
writer mentions the fact. The Eng
lIshman had never heard Of Strabo in
his life. Strabo died as an old man
about 25 A. d., 30 that this excellent
fumarone must have been giving its
warnings well nigh 1000 years at
least"

CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL.
Only One English King, Henry ~.
Has Been Entombed There.


Has Been Entombed There.
The ancient cathedral at Canterbury
shelters the remains OF only one Eng
lish king. Henry ". That this par
ticular monarch should have been en-
tOmbed there is the more remarkable
since he breathed his last in the Jeru-
salem chamber Of Westminster abbey,
and 1t might naturally have been sup
posed in the circumstances that he
would have been laid to rest in the alb
hey, where so many other OF England'R
kings sleep their last sleep. 1t seems,
however. that Henry before his death
gave orders that he was TO be buried
IN the cathedral at Canterbury oppo-
site the tomb of his uncle, Edward,
the Black Prince.
For hundreds OF years a story was
current that on the way down the rtv-
er a hurricane arose and that the peo-
pie on board the vessel, convinced that
the storm was caused by the fact that
a kings body was on board, cast the
corpse into the water In the dead Of
night and. filling the coffin with rub
bish, brought it with all pomp and cir.
cumstance to the cathedral. Some
years ago the dean and chapter resoly-
ed to get at the truth Of the story.
So they opened the royal tomb and
the kings lead coffin. For one brief
moment dean and chapter gazed upon
the kingly lineaments Of that monarch
whom Shakespeare describes as "sky
aspiring Bolingbroke." Only for a mo-
ment, however, as the body crumbled
to dust almost at once. But Canter-
bury now knows beyond eli doubt that
an English king rests within its walls.

clasped her large. shapely hands above

observed her companion, with just a
perceptlbe stress upon the last word.
A silence followed, in which the ap-
palllng beauty of a California August
held them spellbound. Miss Chester
ton drew sharp breath; then she re-
sumed the conversation once more.
"All men don't" was her somewhat
incoherent remark.
Dinsmore had the air of man sud

She flushed and looked injured AL

"Incredulityw calculated Dinsmore
in suppressed voice, his head thrown
back upon his chair and his eyes lifted
to the passion flowers
His companion sat upright, looking
at him with fiery scorn. He met her
eyes brazenly. Never had he seen her
appear so superbly beautiful. But he
only said:
Don't sit UP like that in a Hongkong
chair; it's inartistic. Moreover. it's un-
gracious, and woman should never
be ungraciOus"
You're horrid, Ralph Dinsmore," was
the only reply she vouchsafed him, but
( he noticed that she sank slowly back
upon the cushions. One couldn't af-
ford to look awkward in the eyes OF
any man, even a man that one fully
intends TO refuse
The warm gold OF the afternoon sun
light was gradually paling, and chill
was creeping stealthily into the suave
air. Dinsmore, recognizing the signs
of late afternoon, looked at his watch.
Just a half hour until the o'clock
boat would bear him away from this
corner In paradise back to San Fran
cisco
He drew a small case from his pock-
ct and calmly handed II to Miss Ches-
terton.
You like old Jewels See what you
think OF It," was his matter OF fact
comment.
She obeyed him. drawing from the
case a ring Of quaint workmanship in
which two beautiful pearls were Inn
bedded
Beautiful" she exclaimed enthusi-
astically. "Exquisitew But she did
not look toward him. What It is for
and where did you get it?" she added,
struggling to appear natural.
For an answer he leaned toward her
and took 1t gently from her clasp.
Then he lifted her left hand and calm
ly placed 1t on the third finger, holding
the hand firmly in his while he said
Ruthoritatively:
That Is what 1t Is for As for the
rest, it has been in the Dinsmore fam

It's way along the floor Of the veranda
and up one Of the wicker legs of Miss
Chesterton's chair as II 1t recognized
the woman as unerringly as did the
serpent IF old
little scream broke the stiffness.
Coming back from a dreamy, sensuous
contemplation Of the passion flowers
that hung like jewels among the dusky
rafters Of the porch, Miss Chesterton's
startled glance fell upon the long, fat,
glutinous snail stretched out upon the
arm OF her chair, as If enjoying well
earned rest after the prolonged trip
from IT'S home at the root Of the clump
OF Gala lilies
Gracious" she exclaimed as Dins-
more leaned toward her questoningly.
How on earth did 1t get hereY"
History repeats itself" was his
meaning reply as he watched the in
truder, whose horns pointed upward in
an aggressive fashion. II hope you
are impressed by the fact that It's err
rand is evidently with you. You will
notice that 1t is perfectly contented
there, and by the way 1t opens that lit
t.e circular window in the side of It's
head | should think It was listening
for what you might have to say"
For moment they watched the slug
curiously. Then a drol thought light
ened her face like a fash Of sunshine.
and Dinsmore waited for an explana-
ton.
Il was thinking OF Eve" she said
softly. THE sight Of the serpent
must have been as bracing as a tonic
after the enervatlng beauty OF Eden.
No wonder that she listened It's a
positive Joy to rest ones eyes upon
such ugliness after all this binding
beauty. Absolutely I've been fighting
the heartache-wrestling with a desire
TO moan and weep"
And yet you screamed at the sight
OF IT,"
The words In themselves were in
nocent enough, but the tone was
thoughtful, and Dinsmores long,
searching look gave them signif-
cance that caused her to feel conscious
and then redden with annoyance be
cause She had done 50. To divine that
underneath his words might lie an i'm
plication that her efforts to discourage
his suit meant no more than her star
tied cry at the appearance of the slug
was womanly intuition But to show
that she had OWNED it was a very
different matter, a break more worthy
OF some rustic schoolgirl than OF
Eloise Chesterton. He continued TO
gaze at her until she felt like an In
sect impaled upon pin point for the
benefit Of an interested student. At
last she could endure it no longer.
Probably Eve screamed. too, Just at
first sight of the serpent" she remark
ed desperately, Then, with an inward
groan she wished she had not spoken.
DinsmOre laughed out, a little note
OF triumph in his voice.
IF you think so, I'm sure that she
did" was his reply. Thank you rcr

a powder that you might carry in a

drop pinch Of the powder into water.
A teaspoonful OF the stuff would swell

that II should be tried on the dog 1t
