A FAMOUS CORDIAL.

The French government has won its case in the English courts over the right to use the name "Chartreuse" in selling in England the famous cordial which was made by the Carthusian monks before they were expelled from France. As the sequeserator of the Carthusian property the government has continued the production of the cordial and sold it under the old name. But the expelled monks have set up a new distillery in Tarragona. Spain. and claimed that the name stil belonged to them exclusively. As far as England is concerned the high court of justice declares that the French government on the explusion of the monks. became entitled to the business of La Grand Chartreuse. particularly including the distillery and its assets and good will" which last has a somewhat iron ical sound.-Springfield Republican

captain. ut occupies an immense
eddy about the fifty-sixth degree Of
west longitude and between the TWEEN
ty-secOnd and twenty-eighth degrees Of
north latitude. There is a great differ
ence of opinion regarding the origin of
this floating mass. Some believe 1t to
be detached from rocks at q considera-
bic depth in the latitude where it
floats. Others suppose it to come from
the shores of the northern seas, having
been detached from the rocks by the
violence of the winds. Some again I'M
agne that 1t comes from the rocky
shores Of Florida and Mexico, while
many others agree with me in believ-
ing that it has never had any other
than its present place of abode. No
one has ever seen 1t attached to rocks,
nor have roots ever been discovered
belonging to it,

What a Mans Beard Tells.

"You can tell some of mans habits
and read some Of his traits of charac
ter from his beard" said the Old bar
Der. "If man spends his days at n
desk beside window his hair and
beard will grow faster on the side to-
ward the window. Plants and boards
both flourish under the influence Of
sunlight Why, one Of my customers
found the effects of the side light SO
pronounced that he changed his office
desk to face the window. Another in
teresting fact is that, when man is
up late or works long hours, he needs
a shave oftener than If he took the
usual amount Of sleep. That's because
in being awake he keeps the vital proc
esses Of his body in greater activity
than when asleep. The growth of the
hair depends largely on the circulation
Of the blood, and the heart slows down
when we sleep. "-Kansas City Star.

Foo and Sound.

In fog at sea the toll Of bell
buoy is singularly grave and solemn,
we'll matched by the weird note of a
whistling buoy. Unfortunately the
value of both is lessened in foggy
weather from there being but little
motion of the sea. Nothing, too, is
more difficult than to distinguish in a
fog the direction from which a sound
comes. This is in part due doubtless
to the interference offered to the
straight course of the waves carrying
the sound but also probably to the
absence of the normal, although I'M
suspected, coordination of eye and
ear in locating the origin of sound.
The assistance of the eye on sea and
land Is instinctlvely given to the ear
In many different ways. In fog
the ear has only itself to trust to-

answered thus: "Sir-The Southeastern
railway Is the very worst railway in
the world. The engines are asthmatic.
It's lamps are trimmed by foolish vir-
gins. Its fares are excessive. Its car
riages let in the snow in winter and
are furnaces in summer. Its motto is
unpunctuality. Its principal station is
approached through the neck Of bot
