Three Tombs Mt Westmfn ster.

In the east walk Of the cloisters at
Westminster abbey there are three
most interesting graves-thOse OF
Thomas Betterton and his wife, better
known as Bess Saunderson, and the
ever fascinating Mrs. Bracegirdle. OF
all the people who lie within these hal
lowed walls it may safely be said that
Betterton has the best claim CT all TO
this privilege No small measure OF
praise must be accorded to this gifted
actor for the fact that he almost more
than any one else was responsible for
the resuscitation Of the English drama
after the stern regime OF the PurltanS.
Mrs. Braccgirdle was either adopted by
Betterton or placed under lis care, and
she very soon took all hearts in Lon
don by storm She achieved her great
est success in acting in Congreve's
plays. Her artistic career. however,
was q comparatively short one, for
Mrs. Bpacegildie retired from the
stage in dudgeon when Anne Oldfiell
first became her dangerous rival. She
lived on in honorable retirement and
beloved by all, high and low. far and
near, until the year 114S. when she was
buried here beside her Old friends the
Bettertons.-LOndo: Mail.

Venus Among the Incas.

The only planet which the Incas had
discovered was Venus, which they
called the hairy on account Of the
brightness Of it's rays. They said that
being the most brilliant of the stars,
the sun would not permit it to be sep
arated from him and obliged it to attend
his rising as we'll as his going down,
just as at the courts Of kings only the
most distinguished lords and the hand
soonest ladies were admitted to the GER
emonious royal risings and retirings.
1t appears nearly certain that the In
cas- spoke of Venus under twoi Indifferent
names, according as it preceded or fol-
lowed the sun To this day the native
PcruvianS name it in fanciful language
the eight hour torch and the twilight
lamp. AS this star served to show the
Indians when it was time to prepare
the maize for cooking. they also gave it
a name indicative Of that act. A chapel
in the Temple of the Sun was conse-
Grated to this planet.

How Dreams Are Weighed.

An ingenious instrument which DEM
OnstrateS the close connection that eX-
lists between dreams and brain calcula-
ton is known as the tilt board" A
long, shallow tray big enough for a
man to recline upon is balanced exact
ly upon steel blade. y subject is
placed upon it and put to sleep. where
upon the end containing his feet gen
orally falls. But eventually the subject
begins to dream, and then the tray con-
tanning the sleeper's feet reascends. the
extent to which it moves varying &C.
cording to the vividness of the dream.
The explanation is that the blood
leaves the brain of a sleeper directly
the mental activities cease, and, the
head as a result becoming lighter, that
end of the balance rises. When the
sleeper dreams small quantities Of
blood are recalled to the brain to sup
ply the dreams, and the balance is
gradually changed. In this way
dreams may be weighed.

AuctiOEeers In England.

The auctioneers of the United King
dom cannot claim to belong to very
ancient profession so far as that coun-
try is concerned. Though auctions were
familiar institutions in ancient Rome,
the first in the British islands is said
to have been held about 100, when
Elisha Yale, governor of Fort George
(Madras), put up for sale his trophies
of the east. and, although auction"
was defined in 1913 as "a making a
publick sale and selling of goods by
outcry," it does not appear to have
been recognized then as British insti-
tuition. The word "auctioneer" does
not occur before the eighteenth cen
tury

The Morris family is getting plen-

probably call it sympathy" and the
other side calls it "notoriety." There
is no occasion for all this hubbub
though. II any official action is taken
in regard to roughly handling Mrs.
Morris, all that could be done would
likely be to discharge two policemen
and a negro laborer. People are in

some go peaceably and some do not.
Assistant Secretary Barnes had a
right to ask the lady to leave, and
upon her refusal, TO have her taken
away. He of course did not antici-
pate or sanction any brutality,
and no one is to blame for the Excess
sive force used except those who used

probably been grossly exaggerated.

People should have higher idea
of citizenship than to be ever ready
to rush into court and attempt to
invalidate a law and disorganize the
machinery of government for the
sake of few dollars. If the license
ordinance just passed can be annull-
ed it can only be through some triv-
al technically. as it is well-known
fact that every city in the matter of
raising revenue by license tax, has
almost arbitrary power. subject to a
few constitutional limitations. If a
few people every year were able to
drag the license ordinance into liti-
cation and suspend its operation, the
city and taxpayers would suffer great
Inconvenience and loss of funds APP
propriated for public purposes.

RIGHT NOURJSHMENT.

We think of nourishment
as food-meats, soups, vege-
tables, ETC., but that's only half.
It's not the food alone that
counts but the good that we
get from food that furnishes
nourishment. A pound OF
steak is of less value to a
weak stomach than a crust OF
bread is to a strong digestion.
But weak stomachs can be
made strong. Begin by eat
ing less; have regular hours
for meals; avoid fancy things
and about a half hour after
eating take a tablespoonful of
SCOTS Emulsion. It's a fact
of medical history that people
have lived on not much else
but SCOTS Emulsion for
long time-not only lived but
gained flesh and recovered
their strength and health.
From the pure Norwegian
cod liver oil to the last drop
Of glycerine, SCOTS Emulsion
contains Just the strength
giving and health-building
Elements needed for low vital
ity, weak digestion and poorly
nourished bodies.

II There Were More stalls

The new market house on South
Second street between Broadway and

tai of S4,730 a year above all ex-
penses. 1t is the same every year az
no change has been made in stall
rent.
Treasurer John Dorian and Audi

Of asserting the applications and Ia
king money for bench rent and find
that every stall and bench on the
market house has been applied for
and many applications will have to
be turned down. the market house
not being large enough to accommo-
date all persons desiring benches and
stalls.
The farmers and butchers may
have until tomorrow TO come in and
place appl!cations.as the rental OF the
benches. ETC.. will have to be brought
before the board of public works for
ratification.
Those who rent stalls and benches
may pay semi-annualiy or annually,
whichever way they desire. and gen.
orally the majority take out half
year license. This brings the city for
the first six months about so. 400,and
this amount is being collected by the
treasurer for the coming six months
rental.
