usual type, but when MT. lAallom had examined it closely from a scaffold he found the face was a perfect carlcature of William of Orange, whose bald head with his wig removed, showing fringe of sparse gray hair at the nape of the neck, is to be seen quite clearly at short range. This clearly intended in- suit is accentuated when the head of Diana is seen. She is seated on a crescent and appears as a beautiful woman. But looked at intently it is discovered that she wears three faces. one in front and the others on either side of her head, with the ears forming the noses. These features have sinist- ctr expressions.

WANDERING OF A ssEAGIrr1.

On October 2S last there was shot at Ouchy, on Lake Leman, a seagull aged about sixteen months which was found to be wearing on it's claw a silver ring engraved with the words "Vogel station, Rossitten 20." Rossitten Is situated in the Lido of the Courland lagoon, be- tween Konigsberg and Memel, in the Baltic, 1,5OO kilometres from the Lake of Geneva.
 M. Forel of Lausanne communicated with Dr. J. Thienemann, director of the pathological station at Rossitten. Ac- cording to the latest notes the gull No. 20 was matched there and was marked with the ring when few weeks old, before it could fly, on July 4, 1905. It seems probable that 1t had thus made two winter migrations before it fell a victim to the human barbarian.-The Westminster Gazette.

A KING cARICATURED.

How Painter Got Even With Mon
 arch-Curious Discovery 20O-Year-
 Old Secret.
 After having remained hidden for more than 200 years there has just come to light an insult to William III. of England, contained in a carlcature of that monarch, skilfully concealed in the painting of "The Kings Staircase" in Hampton Court palace, London, done by Antonio Vefrio. At the same time the discovery was made that the ceil- ing done by Reubens in the Whitehall palace for Charles l. contains mystic characters which have vet to be ex- plained These revelations are made by Charles Allom, artist decorator othe king and Prince of Wales. There has also been found a sinister triple faced Diana. probably modelled after the feat ures of some court lady possibly. Mary. Williams queen, to whom a cupid, wearing the features of the king, mounted on black donkey, is paying adoration.
 It was determined recently to restore the mural and ceiling paintings of the kings great staircase in Hampton court palace. This staircase and the additions to the palace were designed by Christopher Wren. The painting was done by Antonio Verrio, an Italian, who, an ardent Catholic. was bitterly opposed to William of Orange, because of the latter's Calvanism. This relg- ious devotion Is the secret of the long hidden insult. Verrio, who was born a Neapolitan, in 1884, became great painter of historical subjects, At the invitation of Charles II. he went to England and decorated Windsor Castle, and did the famous picture in the great hall of Christ's hospital, 90 feet in length. Redgrave, the great art critic, says Of Verrio and the work which is now in the public eye; "At the time of the revolution Verrio absolutely refus- ed to do any work for William III, but after employment by Chatsworth and Burleigh he finally painted his well known work, the great staircase at Hampton court"
 Now it develops that the real reason of his submission to the kings com mand lay in the opportunity he saw to revenge himself upon the Protestant monarch. The ceiling and walls fere painted with figures of the mythical gods and goddesses of various incl dents. Near the top of the stairway, directly alongside of a heroic picture of Mercury, there appears among the many Cupids one of larger size than his fellows. He is upon a black don key and gazes upward at Diana in an attitude of supplication and adoration. At distance the Cupid appears of the

He has quite frequently calls by telephone during business hours and it frequently happens that he is not able immediately to answer the calls, although it is never more than a quarter of a minute before he responds. T have to leave my work and step to the forward office, he says, which is perhaps a distance of forty feet to reach the phone. take down the re- ceiver and no one answers.
