At the Turn of the Tide

1t was asserted by Aristotle
that no animal dies near the sea
except at the ebbing OF the tide.
This idea in some form or another
has been popular for centuries.
Such a notion, | find, still eN-
lists at Gravesend. An old salt
who used to sit by a dying man
in an ale house on the shore of
the Thames told me he noticed
my patient was always worse at
the turn Of the tide, and then got
better after the tide had turned.
Readers of Dickens cannot forget
the account in David Copper
field of Mr.. Barkis going out
with the tide"
According to Aristotle and Mr..
Pegotty. it is at the ebbing of
the tide that death always occurs.
But at Gravesend, l am told, it
does not matter whether the tide
is at the ebb or flow; it is just
at the turn of the tide that death
occurs. 81 have often seen it
happen, sir" an old shrimper
said to me quite recently.

DON'T USE SURNAMES.
Only Christian Names Signed by
Majority of Royal Houses.

The origin of most royal houses
was similar throughout Europe,
and kings and their families,
speaking broadly, never had or
used surnames. They signed
their Christian names alone.
So universally was this the case
that it became rigid etiquette that
a person of royal birth should not
use surname, though there have
been numbers of cases of dynas-
ties, like our own Stuarts, like the
Bernadotte dynasty of Sweden or
like the Bonaparte family, who
unquestionab.y and Individually
had inherited surnames. But it
has always been a puzzle why the
cadet members of our own royal
house do not subscribe them
selves as peers by their peerage
designations, as do other peers.
However, the fact is they do
not, but it has not been discov-
cred what are the rules which
govern their signatures. The
sovereign signs by the Christian
name and usually adds "R." or
"R. and l." Princes and prin-
cesses sign by their Christian
names, and sometimes, but not
always, add the letter "P" When
or why this is added or omitted is
not known.
But the habits of royalty lead
others into strange happenings.
There was an occasion upon
which Queen Victoria after a
function" was asked to sign
visitors book. Her majesty
wrote Victoria R. and l." Prin-
cess Henry of Battenberg then
wrote Beatrice p The turn Of
the local Mayoress came next,
and she signed Elizabeth" The
surname was hastily written in
the following day, but too late to
prevent the story gaining car
rency.

Mr.. Bryan is meeting consid-
cradle opposition in his endeav-
or to line up the entire demo
cratic party behind him. The
Nebraskan made several mis-
takes in his preliminary cam
paign; the most serious was in
not allowing states that had fav-
orite sons to select a delegation
for them, without opposition.
Had the Lincoln man not mixed
in" in Minnesota, he would not
have had to fight as hard as he
is now doing. Still, the indica-
.tions are that he will be nomina-
ted at Denver and then defeated
in November. That's what a
large number of the democratic
party want and that's also what
will do the party the greatest
good. But the orator of the
Platte sees things through his
own colored glasses, which never
fail to give him a roseate view.

a guest OF Spybuck, chief OF the
Shawnee tribe, during the last In
dian powow and celebration at
Collinsville, |. t.
This young woman speaks Eng
lish without accent, and is said
to be the handsomest Indian
woman in the Southwest. Her
hair is long and silken. and her
eyes are blue and sparkling. She
is said to be singer of unusual
ability. Her father owns 2.2oo
acres of lands under cultivation
and is a breeder of blooded stock.
Their home is about nine miles
from Lawton. Okla, and is mod

she is passionately fond of horse
back riding, and her friends say
she can rope a wild steer more
easily than any of the men about

TOOTH PLUGGING.
Mr.. Killlinton Changes His
Views Regarding Old Song.

Mr.. Killkinton Changes His
Views Regarding Old Song.
"You remember" said Mr.. Kill
kinton. that grand old song,
'Grandpa's Teeth Are Plugged
With Zinc?'
"Well, | always supposed that
that zinc business was simply a
grotesquely humorous flight of
fancy. I never thought that any
body's teeth could really be filled
with zinc; but now | am not so
sure about that.
Lately l have had four teeth
filled. and no two have been filled
with the same material. One was
filled with malgam. one with gold,
one with porcelain and one with
gutta percha; and now the mate
rial they used to fill grandpa's
teeth within the song doesn't
seem to me anything like SO ridi-
culous as it did.
Il have seven teeth yet to be
filled, and if the dentist keeps on
as he has begun, using something
different for every tooth, why, l
wouldn' t. be surprised if before l
got through / had one tooth at
least filled with zinc.

In the Kings Pockets.

Like every man who values the
look of his clothes, King Edward
carries very little in his pockets
besides a handkerchief. In his
waistcoat pocket he carries a gold
pencil case, a cigar cutter, a little
passkey, a gold watch, carefully
regulated by Greenwich time, and
half a dozen sovereions. In his
coat pocket he carries tiny note
book, and in the winter he puts
his gloves in the pocket of his
topcoat. The king never carries
a cigar case, except gold case
which holds one cigar, but he al
most always has a small box of
lozenges. Unlike his nephew,
the kaiser. he never carries
fountain pen in his pocket.

Fast Trains in England.

The quickest run in England
is the North Eastern's from OAR
lington to York, forty-four and
a quarter miles, at speed of 61.7
miles per hour, but this can
scarcely be ranked above the
Great Westerns run from Pad
dington to Bristol via Bath,
I18 3-8 miles, at speed of 5o.2
miles per hour.
The longest run is the Great
Westerns from Paddington to
Plymouth, 225 "a miles, at a
speed of 54.8 miles per hour,
though the Midland has one near
ly as good, from Leeds to St. Pan
cras, 100 Ia miles, at $50 miles
per hour.

Granville S. Pease, better
known as "Old Pease", has just
rounded out fourty-two years in
Minnesota journalism, all of
which has been spent in Anoka.
Few country editors can point
to a more successful record.
And the best of it all is that the
bald-headed proprietor of the
Union has prospered financially
and has a comfortable pile of
filthy lucre to provide for his old
age. Pease is an independent
fellow but always says what he
thinks and strikes straight from
the shoulder, and that's the main
reason for his success. May he
continue many more years at the
Unions helm.

THEY WON'T SHUT DOORS.
They Will Ride Backward, Re-
ports a Traveller of Englishmen.

ports Traveller OF Engishmen.
Travellers returning from Eng
land tell of two habits of the peo-
pie Of that country which inn
pressed them. One is the aver
age Engiishman's aversion to
shutting the door behind him.
II don't know how it is in the
English houses" remarked one
who returned recently from
abroad, sfor I was not in one of
them, but I stayed in a hotel in
London where there were a good
many English people, and dozen
times daily had to get up and
shut door to keep the draught
away.
at didn't make any difference
whether it was a servant or a
guest who went through, the door
was left open. This was in the
spring of the year. too, when the
weather was chilly. l noticed
the same thing in railway coach
es and hotels of smaller towns"
The other English popularity
is a preference for riding back
ward on trains. The Snglishman
will make for the seat with it's
back to the engine every time,
plant himself down in it with ev-
cry evidence of comfort and look
.wonderingly at anybody who
picks out seat facing the direc-
ton the train is going. Not once
did one American travelling in
England see native choose a
seat facing the front of the train
unless there were no other seats.

Cedar Shavings for Dogs.

If your dogs are troubled with
feas very simple way to get rid
of the pest is to provide beds of
fresh cedar shavings, or, better,
cedar excelsior in the kennels or
wherever the dogs sleep. The
scent is not at all unpleasant to
the dogs, but is abhorent to the
feas. When a dogs coat gets
thoroughly scented not only do
the heas leave him while asleep,
but they will not jump upon him
when he is out in the sand dur
ing the day.

TIME TO QUIT POOLING

Minnesota republicanism is in
a bad way. The party is all
split up into factions, each one
of which is paying more atten-
ton to the humiliation of the
other than it is to the good of
the party. For the past few
years the party has suffered
from it's leaders, with the result
that the people became tired
and placed a democratic govern
or in the statehouse. Republican
leaders do not appear to have
learned their lessons, for the
pickering, bossism and strife,
are just as much in evidence to-
day as they were in 1904. Here
we have Dunn and Young throw
ing bricks at each other and
calling each other bad names;
while one of them stands up for
Jacobson and the other berates
him, charging him with being the
tool of the interest. The fight
between these three is growing
fercer each day and the indica-
tions are that it will result in a
convention row of no small d.
mansions.
Meantime the people are grow
ing more Disguised than ever.
If this thing keeps up, the re-
publican party will be so torn
with dissension that the demo
Gratis can elect not only gov
ernor but can make a clean
sweep in the statehouse. Pos
sibly that would do the republi-
can party more good than any
thing else that could happen to
it.
In these days of independent
voting it behooves a candidate
for Office to pay some attention
to the desires of the people. The
rights of several hundred thous-
and voters weigh more than the
aspirations or the personal diff
ferences of Bob Dunn and Ed.
Young and Jake Jacobson. Bet
ter stop your squebbling, gentle
men, and give the people a
chance. If you keep up this
foolishness much longer you'll
be laid away in nice little politi-
cal graves and there'l be few to
shed a tear.

French Writers and Sports.

The present literary generation

the most assiduous manner, one

Chicago women have started
a movement which has for it's
object the recognition of the
value of the police. The good
women would have every child
salute a policeman when he
meets one. They argue that the
work of the policeman is arduous
and that the officer is entitled to
far more respect than he gen.
orally receives. It's a fine thing
to have the young and rising
generation entertain more re-
spect for authority than they do.
It's also due the faithful and
deserving policeman that his
services should be more highly
appreciated. The movements
a good one; push it along.

great, could give an adequate rem
dering of Irish life without in
