WAS THE HOME OF KINGS.

This English Palace, Recently Sold,
Nearly Six Centuries Old.
The cause of a cold shiver running
UP and down the back of the British
public has been removed, says the Kan
sas City Star. The old palace at Rich
mond, linked with the royal houses Of
England for full 400 years, which has
been IN the market for some time and
which 1t was feared would fall into the
hands of that ever present bogey, the
American millionaire, has been corrall-
ed by an Englishman. And therein lies
a tale of how the American million
alre missed a grand opportunity of be-
coming possessed of a royal palace with
ghosts, a hidden treasure and 8 history
Of royal occupancy extending over four
centuries.
1t Is doubtful if many other palaces
in England can show a pedigree so long
as that of the house of Richmond. 1t
dates back to the fourteenth century,
when Edward II. lived therein and
brought his long reign to a close by
dying within its -four walls.
Servants Were not as deco-ous or as
honest in those days as they are to-
day, for we read that Immediately it
became known that the monarch was
dead his domestics pillaged the castle
and carried off almost everything of
value. That was rather hard on his
heir, but the latter does not appear to
have suffered very much, for with the
help Of his famous master o: works,
Godfrey Chaucer, Richard. II. added
considerably to the building. Anne,
Queen Of Richard H.. died within it's
walls, whereupon that monarch, out of
misery and grief, RACED the palace to
the ground. 1t was subsequently re
stored by one of the Henrys.
A wonderful story Of buried treasure
dates from the occupancy of Henry
VII, who died in the palace after a
residence of eight years. lie is said
to have left, buried in its secret vaults,
$9,000,000 in gold. jewels and plate.
History fails TO supply the interesting
news as to whether or not it was recov-
cred by any subsequent occupant and
there is a bare chance that it still may
be hid away beneath the walls of the
building.
Much-married Henry VIII. lived
there for awhile, as did his daughter,
Bloody Mary" During the ~latter's in
teresting reign it served as a prison for
her sister, the Good Queen Bess,' upon
whom it was finally settled. Queen
Mary came there with her newly we'd
ded consort, Philip of Spain, and the
couple spent the happiest time of their
married life within its confines.
The last royal parsonage to live in
the old castle vas Queen Charlotte. AS
1t stands to-day it is but an inconsid-
cradle portion of the original Palace of
Sheen. as it was known. 1t has five
reception rooms and ten bedrooms. The
major portion of the palace was pulled
down during the Civil War. The re-
naming portion, however, stands Just
as it was restored by one of the early
HenrysEone Of the most interesting
historical relics of the England Of the

Blessed are the meek, for they shall
possess the land.-Matthew 8, A..
The world does not esteem meekness.
This virtue is looked upon as imprac-
ticable because it is held as a negative
quality among the forces required Of
practical living.
The error most persons make is in
But Jesus Christ would not have coun-
seled meekness as one of the finer
qualities Of life If it were a drawback
to legitimate endeavor in our workaday
struggles. It is not reasonable to sup
pose that He would have placed a
heavy handicap on those who seek to
follow after Him.
No, indeed. Christ left us in His
own life a beautiful example of what
meekness may accomplish, and yet He
was one of the bravest Of men in that
He lay down His life for His friends.
The scriptures, too, tell us that Moses
was a mar exceeding meek above all
men that dwelt on EARTH" but he
stands out prominently as a man who
did things.
The meek man is a type of a great
moral force among us, for he is capa-

came the promise of reward in, the
words, "and you shall find rest for
your souls"
The weak man, or the other hand,
never has a chance of exercising meek
ness. He never oyercomes, but yields
to the opposing currents of nature.
'.The slings and arrows of outrageous
fortune" behold him bending as the
willow before the storm. But as only
he who bears the brunt of the battle
really knows the danger of the fight,
80 also it is only the man of strong
impulses that knows the difficulty Of
c%onquering them.
"Do thy work in meekness," says
E~cclesiasticus, "and thou shalt be be-
loved above the glory Of men," 1t is,
moreover, a mistake to fancy that
meekness can come from flying from
your fellow men or by living a life of
do-nothing, for meekness is not to be
found in conditions, but in the hearts
and characters of men-in a heart that
palpitates with a fellow feeling and in
a character that grows broader with
loving activity.
In the requirement of meekness

effacement count unless these are for

Of the meek man is not to crush the

How Her Life Was saved When nit

ten by II Large Snake.
How few people there are who are
not afraid Of snakes. Not long ago
a harmless little garter snake fell on
the wheel of an automobile which was
being driven by a woman. The woman
promptly tainted and the car, left to
it's own resources, ran into a stone
wall and caused a serious accident.
The bite Of a poisonous snake needs
prompt attention. Mrs. X. NJ. Fishel,
| Route No. /, Box 40, Dillsburg, Pa,
!! tells how she saved her life when bit
| ten by a large snake.
ION August %, 1905, l was bitten
on the hand twice by a large copper
head snake. Being a distance from
any medical aid, as a last resort l
used Sloan's Liniment, and to my as
constituent found it killed all pain
and was the means of saving my life.
l am the mother Of four children. and
am never without your Liniment.'
