Kissing Carmen"

One of the most popular operas Of
the present day, Carmen" underwent
an unfortunate experience, but achiev-
ed success too late, alas, to console the
disappointed composer, whose death
was accelerated, it is said, by the i'll
reception accorded to his chef d'oeuvre.
Carmen" was, in fact, actually Kissed
of the stage on its first performance
in Paris in 1915, and poor Bizet died
shortly after, unable to foresee the
and best work. whose stirring music
SO admirably fits the thrilling Spanish
libretto it illustrates.-Cornhill Maya

NATURES CATARRH CURE.
Sensible and Scientific Way to
Cure This Disagreeable Disease.

In no other way can catarrh be
cured as naturally and quickly as by
the use of Hyomei breathed through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit.
In this way all the air that enters
the nasal passages, the throat or the
lungs, is filled with Hyomei's healing
medication, reaching the most remote
air cells of the respiratory organs,
and soothing and healing the Initiated
mucous membrane.
So strong is Fred D. Pierce's faith
in the power of Hyomei to cure ca
tarrhal troubles, that with every
dollar outfit he sells, he gives guar
antee to refund the money unless it
cures.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but S1OO, extra bottles, if needed, SOC

VIRGINS CARLANDS.

Ken. cri-la I'm an English Church to
Gi.I:. RE to First Love.
There are seven virgins garlands'
still in existence in AIinsterley church,
SaIoy the first of them bearing the
date l5.,-i and the last 1751.
They consist of silk ribbons and
paper. ball shaped, and are covered
with rosettes, the inside center of the
cane or wire frame supporting a pair
of paper gloves. They represent ro-
mantle custom of very ancient origin
and are sacred to the memory of girls
who while betrOthed in their youth
lost their intended husbands by death,
vet remained true to their first loves.
Each maiden designed her own gar
land, and at her death this simple EN-
blem was borne before her by the vii
lage lasses, the white gloves being aft
erward added. After the obsequies
these garlands were suspended in the
village church on a rod bearing at It's
extremity a heart in the shape of an
escutcheon, upon which the initials and
date were inscribed. These were Origi
nally fixed above the maiden's pew.
Some of the earliest and forgotten
garlands were composed of real flow
ers, but later the covered hoops de
scribed were substituted

HEAVY POSTOFFICE
BUSINESS
LOCAL STAFF HAS TO WEIGH ALL
MAIL WITHOUT EXTRA ASSIST
ANCE, WHILE MAIL HANDLED
HERE INCREASES VERY RAPIDLY.

The postofiice force is laboring under
the difficulties of extra work with the
usual staff during the past few days as
the result of orders from Washington
regarding the weighing OF all mail mat
ter handled through the postofiice. This
order has gone into effect all over the
country and the local office is not the
only one that is doing extra work.
The orders provide for the weighing of
first, second. third, and fourth class, as
well as contract mail to ascertain the
weights of the different classes for the
Washington authorities. The object is
to fix the rates for the different varieties
according to their weight and the test
will be in effect for six months in order
to get an accurate idea.
The local office like most offices in
cities of this size, is compelled to work
short handed because OF the small staff
allowed by the salary apportionment.
The result is general CONGESTION in
most places which causes the public to
wait until eNasperated before having
their wants attended to.
