The Spirit of Winter.

The spirit of winter is with us,
making It's presence known in many
different ways sometimes by CHEEKY
sunshine and glistening SHOWS, and
sometimes by driving winds and
binding storms. To many people it
seems to take a delight in making
bad things worse, for rheumatism
twists harder, twinges sharper, ca
tarrh becomes more annoying, and
the many symptoms of scrofula are
developed and aggravated. There Is
not much poetry in this but there is
truth, and it is a wonder that more
people don't get rid of these tilments

that Its cures are radical and perma-

cemetery,s Strange Uses.

According to the reports submitted
by keepers of Pere Lachaise. the IA
nous Partisan cemetery is utilized for
many other objects besides the burial
place of well-to-do families. 1t Is a re-
sort of thieves who steal the bronze
and brass work, which they take bit
by bit from the tombs and hide In
their pockets. 1t is also hunting
ground for collectors of curios, who,
armed with hooked sticks, break the
windows of the little chapels over the
tombs and abstract small vases of sill
yer and other precious metals.
Women. too, make practice of
stealing wreaths Of imitation pearls.
which they place under their dress
and afterwards sell to dealers as their
own make. The cemetery is likewise
the resort of sentimental lovers.
When those seen kissing are very
young, the keepers take their names
and communicate with their parents.
Thus is many a schoolgirls romance
nipped in the bud.
Young and handsome women.
dressed In the deepest Widows weeds,
are sometimes seen weeping at the
tombs of people in no way related
to them. This is with an eye to the
coming of a male CONSIDER who event
ually departs with the supposed wild
ow on his arm. For these reasons
and others II is thought advisable to
increase the number of keepers.
