His Fears Realized.

For years the old country couple had looked forward to spending a holiday In London, and one day they found themselves in the very busiest part of the city Together they stood watch ing the traffic, to which there seemed no end. They did not know how to cross the street.
 "Whatever you do, Liza, don't git separated from me-" said the old man to his wife. "and. whatever you do, don't cross the road without me-"
 Then q kindly constable came along and. seeing the old woman hess:tAtn6. took her by the arm and csn0enced to pilot her to the opposite sidc.
 "nang my buttons" criel out the old man in alarm. ''1 allus tolG Scr that some one wud take fancy to Ter, but didn't think any one 'ud lave the i'm perance to take CT afore my very eyes!"-London Tft-Rits.

Reached the Limit.

A Providence girl. who has been married about six months, had we'd ding cards short time ago from an old school friend who had given her q wedding present. which, of course, de manded one in return. Among her wedding presents the Providence girl had duplicates in the shape of two sil- yer card trays, and in a spirit of econ omy she decided to give one of these to her friend. It was marked with her own initials, but it would be only I matter of a few minutes to have them removed and the proper monogram cut. She took it to the jeweler and explain ed what was to be done. He picked up the tray, looked at it closely and smiled
 Madam" said he, fit will be i'm possible. have already changed the initials on this same tray five times. and it has worn so thin that l cannot do it again without cutting through the bottom. m."-Providence Journal.

Medicine In Ancient Ecypt.

There is much evidence in inscrip- tions and manuscripts that the ancient Egyptians p&acticed medicine and sur gery extensively. Probably their prae. tiee was based on little knowledge of anatomy. Each physician treated only one or two diseases. The sick were exposed in public places so that others who had suffered similarly might tell them of helpful remedies, Diseases Of the eye were best understood and re- ceiyed both medical and surgical treat- mcnt. The most important medical manuscript found in Egypt is the Uapyrus Ebers, written 5000 B. c. and discovered in Memphis. Disease, ac= cording to the Egyptians, was due to the anger of some deity, the result of the triumph of evil in it's struggle with good, an idea which is still very gen. eral throughout Africa and Asia ana which at some time has been prevalent in modified forms in almost every race. -"Records of the Past.'

In a Eoo.

Nothing has such d bewildering eff feet as fog. Only animals which find their way by scent can get about in it with any certainty. Birds are entirely confused by it. Tame pigeons remain all day motionless and half asleep, hud- died up, either in or just outside their pigeon houses Chickens remain mo- tionless for hours during heavy fogs
 No bird sings or utters call, perhaps because it fears to betray it's where abouts to an unseen foe. During one very thick fog blind man was found wandering about a certain district of London. This man was in the habit of coming up every day from suburb, carrying notes and parcels, and had scarcely ever lost his way before. Ask
 ed why he had gone astray (for he was quite blind, and it was supposed that weather would have made no differ ence), he said that in fog the ground ''sounded quite differently."-

Entranced.

The happy couple dashed through the showers of rice and old shoes and reached the train.
 "Oh, George" whispered the blushing bride, do you hear what they are shouting?'
 "No," replied George, trying to loosen a white ribbon that had been attached to his silk hat "What are they shout ing?'
 ""They're off! They're off"
 George smiled broadly as he helped her aboard the parlor ear.
 "Oh, that's all right, my dear,' he assured "All couples are little off when they are starting on their honey moon."

KNIT GOODS BUYERS FORGING OPENING

New York, May 29.-!t become more apparent each day that buy ers1af knit goods are doing theil. utm1 1<st to force the opening of sprHhg lines for 1908. Manufac- turers nave been endeayorinS to delay the opening of new lines for next year as long as possible, as they believe such action will bene- fit the trade and also the manu- facturer will be in a better posi- ton to size up the situation re garding prices. On the other hand buyers are well aware of the pres ent situation in the market, and seem firmly of the opinion that de- lay in opening new lines will only mean the paying of higher prices when they are opened. More or less of an understanding existed early this month between manufac- turers of knit goods to the effect that the spring season of 1905 would be delayed as long as pos sible, and that the new lines would not be opened until after the first of June and if possible as late as June 15. This plan, however, has not been adhered to, as quite a few 1 I. lines and a large business has been dchA on medium and cheap goods. A ndmber of buyers representing large jobbing houses throughout the country are at the present time in this market looking at merchan- disc for next spring, and others are arriving daily. They state that they are anxious to get their pur- chasing over, and although prices have been advanced sharply on many lines, they appear to be per fectly willing to pay these prices pr,viding they can get the mills to accept iron-clad contracts. Of course every effort is being made to push prices down and to force the seller to recede from the prices he has announced. It is needless to say, however, that these tactics are not proving at all successful. The lines shown so far plainly in dicate that the manufacturers have
 made every effort possible to keep prices down and to reduce the cost
 of production, as far as possible,
 especially on tn medium and lower
 priced goods. There will be
 great shortage of what are termed
 popular-priced garments to retail at
 70 cents and 50 cents per garment, and where lines of these shown it 2 very plain that they are not up Y0 the standard of the past spring. 6yhe finishing has been cut down as much as possible while the sizes nave also been reduced.

A young man engaged board and lodging in private family who were extremely devout. Before each meal long grace was said.
