The Royal Month and the Royal
Disease.

Sudden changes of weather are
especially trying, and probably to none
more so than to the scrofulous and con-
sumptive. The progress Of scrofula
during a normal October is commonly
great. We never think Of scroRula-its
punches. cutaneous eruptions, and
wasting of the bodily substance-with
out thinking of the great good many
sufferers from it have derived from
Hoods Sarsaparilla, whose radical
and permanentcures ofthis one disease
are enough to make it the most famous
medicine in the world. There is prob
ably not city or town where Hoods
Sarsaparilla has not proved it's merit
in more homes than one, in arresting
and completely eradicating scrofula,
which is almost as serious and as
much to be feared as it's near relative.

Defends Female God.
Mr.. Roberts ran the whole gamut of
Mormonism. He defended the idea of
female God and of coha bitation in
heaven: declared that Jesus Christ was
the product of ply sical cohabitation.
and strongly asserted the doctrine that
Gentle marriages are for this world
only, and will not exist in the future
state, while Mormon marriages arc for
time and eternity. He warmly defend
ed tine life and character Of Joseph +.
Smith.
The announcement that Mr. Roberts
would speak in reply to the ministers
drew an enormous crowd, Outsiders
in large numbers were present. The
occasion was one of the sessions of tine
annual conference of the Young Men s
and Young Women s Mutual Improve
ment associations. and Mr. Roberts s
defense of polygsmous living was de
livered before and appIauded by an
audience made up in large part Of
young people.

Poe's Devotion to His Wife.

No picture of Poe in Philadelphia
would be complete, writes e. 2. ODER
holtzer in Book News, if we do not
remember his poetic attachment for
his girl wife and his love for high lit
erary ideals, so faithfully evidenced
in his own writing and in his criticism
of the work Of other men. His love
for his wife was a sort of rapturous
worship of the spirit of beauty which
he felt was fading before his eye"
Mr.. Graham wrote after the poets
death: 81 have seen him lowering
around her when she was i'll, with all
the fond fear and tender anxiety of
a mother for her firstborn, her slight
est cough causing in him a shudder, a
heart chill that was visible. | rode
out one summer evening with them,
and the remembrance of his watchful
eyes eagerly bent upon the slightest
change of hue in that loved face
haunts me yet as the memory of a
sad strain" Re~collecting that when
she was gone honest sorrow mingled
with the poverty that hung about him
like a thick cloud through which nc
sun shone, we can afford to forgive
much in those last misspent days.

residence, but his pen continues to
paint word pictures of Virginia life.
It Is the antebellum Virginia and the
Virginia of reconstruction days which
mostly engages Mr.. Pages talent.
Born Of n Of the fine old families
of the state, his books are alive with
the traditions of the landed aristocrat,
the planter, the proud old military
man and the pretty girl of the manor
house.
It is this constant working over or
material from a day that is past which,
according to Mrs. Harris, accounts FOR
the waning popularity Of Mr.. Pages
writings. The present generation OF
readers is said to be more or less IN
different to those historic times when
the south was struggling in the throes
Of civil war and reconstruction. AS
the writer mentioned says:
HE has interpreted what was at the
time he wrote the spirit of the south,
that armored and helmeted spirit
| which survived the defeats of the civil
war, riding unconquered and uncon'
ouerable through bereavements, pow

Visitors From Space.

Whatever be their origin, it would
seem that these solid bodies (meteor-
ites) are hurting through space at We
locities which may be anything be-
tween ten and forty miles a second. If
they come near enough to this earth
to be attracted by it, their course is
changed and presently they enter our
atmosphere. The result is a sudden
check to their speed, owing to the in
tense resistance and friction engen-
dered by contact with the air partl-
Giles. What happens may be Hkened
to the sudden application of the wooden
brake block to the rapidly moving
wheel of an express train. Heat is
generated in exchange for motion, ana
the trail Of sparks from the checked
wheel is represented in the checked
meteorite by a luminous trail. we
commonly call it a shooting star, ana
if its mass be small it is possibly alto
gether dissipated in heat and gas or 1t
may ultimately find its way to our
earth as dust. Such 'meteoric dust
has been found on the eternal snow
of mountains where dust of the ordI-
nary type would be impossible. Ii,
On the other hand, the mass Of matter
be large, it's surface only will be al
fected bv the sudden heat generated,
and it may fall to the ground entire or
possibly explode and be scattered III
fragments we a wide area.-Cham-

a Mise Answer.

IT takes but an ordinary man TO re-
firm an angry answer to an insult.
The extraordinary man is he who, I'M
der such circumstances, holds himself
so well under control that he controls
his adversary also. Persia once pos
sessed such a man and was clear sight
ed enough to make him a judge he
was the chief Judge of Bagdad in the
reign of Caliph Hadee, and bis name
was Aboo YuSuph. He was q very
wise man, for he knew his W de-
ficiencies and was actually sometimes
in doubt as to whether he possessed
sufficient wisdom to give a just de-
cision in cases peculiarly shrouded IN
mystery. 1t is related of him that on
one occasion, after patient inYestlga-
ton of facts, he decided that he had
not sufficient knowledge to pronounce
on the case before him. There was
in his presence a pert courtier, one OF
those men who take long to learn that
wisdom and ~impudence are not closely
related.
"Pray, do you expect that the caliph
is to pay you for ~ignorance?" he
asked, hoping to place the judge at a
disadvantage.
81 do not" was the mild reply
"The caliph pays me, and pays NE
we'll. for what l do know. Were he &c
attempt to pay me for what do MOI
know the treasures Of his empire
would not suffice"
