a Deserted VILLAGE.

The site of the erstwhile flourishing
village Of Brendon is represented by
few gaunt stone chimneys, a stray
cluster of rooiiess cottages, a dilapi-
dated Dissenting chapel, ghostly
railway station and one fair-siZed
shop, which serves the needs of the
scattered community living ON the
Brendon Hills, says Fl. G. Archer, in
the Wide World Magazine. But for
many years the deserted village was
lett just as 1t was when the miners
occupied it, and as such presented an
extraordinary sight silent, grass
grown streets of closed houses, shCo;.
inns and places of worship. IL was
only comparatively recently that the
buildings were razcd and the materials
{: which they were composed s,ld and
carried away. To-day the most tan
giblc lelic is found at the junction of
the roads just outside the village-a
quaint, square, plain building, over the
porched entrance to which is the word
"Beulah," and the date of erection,
1861. This is one of the little chapels
built for the miners. No attempt has
been made to preserve it from decay,
and not SO long ago the pedestrians
could stroll in and find the sunlight
streaming, through the translucent
windows and their borders of colored
glass, making the interior grotesquely
gay. The pulpit and pews then re.

the seat-holders' names were yet to be

MoRoccANs USE LOVE CHARMS.
Queer Means Employed by Women to
Gain Affection.

Mrs. Mansel-Pleydell writes of the
curious charms used by the women of
Morocco: Moorish women resort
much to charms to gain lovers or to
keep their affections when gained.
There Is one charm which is seldom
known to fail. 1t consists of shred
ding a small piece of an undergarment
which the man has worn and. after
certain incantations have been said
over 1t, of rolling the particles into
the shape of a small ball. This is EN-.
bedded In larger ball of clay and, aft
er being Slightly dampened, it is kept
in pot over the embers of live char
coal. Il have been assured that as
soon as the heat penetrates the clay
the man, whoever he may be, will lay
aside whatever work he is doing at
the time and fly to the arms of the
woman who invokes the charms. AS
long as the ball is kept warm so long
will the heat of love burn in the
neart OF the lover for that woman.
Another spell much resorted 20 is cast
by cutting off the tips of donkey's
ears, cooking them and mixing them
In the mans food. He then becomes
as foolish as donkey with love for
the charmer who has provided his
"nsavory rcpast." q.

that Of the young Brooklyn plumber.

In BEDTIME HOURS
SHORT DISCOURSE ON PROPER
METHODS OF SLEEP.
ritter Declares the Human Race Does
Not Know How Properly to Woo
"Nature's Sweet Restorer'-
Beware the Snorer.

Man is the only animal that sleeps
on it's back, says the New York Press
Many animals sleep on their sides,
but most sleep prone-that is, face
down. Dogs never dream when prone
but invariably do. so when sleeping
on their side. All of us from the
country have seen Bung, the hound,
chasing rabbits in his sleep. An ami
NAL would be perfectly helpless If it
slept on it's back. And so is man help
less in that position.
If some other fellow wants a fortune
let him invent a pillow that will allow
IA man or woman or child to sleep face
down without having to twist the neck
nearly out of joint. We still style it
the "back-up cure" and introduce it in
all homes. There is no excuse for
lying on the back and keeping the
spine hot all night, while the front of
the body-the abdomen, the stomach,
the chest, the throat, etc.-is allowed
to become chilled. A hot spine is a
disease generator. And, on the other
hand, a cold spine is death.
Snoring is an Internal nuisance to
who sleep on their fronts never snore
Those who sleep on their backs in
varably do The palate as we know
1t is the roof Of the mouth and the
floor Of the nose. Some style it. the
hard palate. Back near the throat is
the soft palate. When you sleep on
your back this gets down about the
breathing apparatus and you snore.
Some snores are worse than the mid
night howl of hyena. Never marry q
woman that snores. Ask her before
you propose if she is addicted to snor.
ing, and If she says Yea" avoid her.
. 1t is much easier to relax when
sleeping on your front than when
sleeping on your back And what we
all 4s16d after touching the bed at
nightlss relaxation. 1t is a billion
pities that some scientist cannot teach
the art Of relaxing. Our strenuous
life, Of course, is not blameless in this
matter. We go to bed in excitement,
and the nerves are strung all night.
That is to say, we go to bed in full
tune, like piano, and cannot pos.-,b.y
let the strings down: Therefore we
do not rest. Could we relax we could
sleep four or FIVE. hours and arise re.
freshed; but as we cannot relax, we
groan and dream and sweat and roll

nine hours, and get UP with a;swelled

Willy NATIVE KING
HAS PROVED MATCH FOR AvARI.
cIoUs WHITE MAN.
Indian Monarch Of the Mosquito Coast
Of Nicaragua Both Far-Seeing
and Wise - Refuses to
Grant Concessions.

DR.. L. E. Flanagan, a former citizen
OF Charlottesville, Va, but who has
for the last five years been living at
Cape Gracia, an important town on
the east coast of Nicaragua, Is at the
Belvedere, says the Baltimore Ameri-
can. The doctor is friend of Gen.
Zelaya, president of the republic of
Nicaragua, and has been honored ny
him with several important Offices.
There is probably no richer cGun
try in the world than Nicaragua% said
Dr. Flanagan. 1T is, however, almost
In virgin state, as there has been
scarcely any development of it's great
resources. President Zelaya, the able
and energetic chief executive, is Civ
ing the country most excellent ad-
ministration and enjoys the absolute
confidence of the people. The natives
of the Mosquito coast, as my section
is called, are known as Mosco, or
Sambo Indians. and are queer mix
ture OF indian, nero and Caucasian
elements. with the native Indian type
predorainating, Though most of them
show their strain of African blood by
a Kindness of the hair. while others
are fair-haired and light of skim as Q
reminder of Scotch buccaneer progen
1tors. Not one in fifty Of these Sambos
ever slept in bed and not more than
one in five ever handles piece of
money. The older members of the
family sleep in hammocks woven from
the fibers of the hennequin or the
banana stalk, while the juveniles curl
up on the floor. They are about as
near to nature as any people under
the sun, for nature supplies them
with everything necessary to sustain
life.
These Sambos are nominally under
the Nicaraguan government, it is true
but they pay direct allegiance to Il;
King, monarch Of their own tribe.
His authority extends over many viii
lagos and settlements, embracing
coast line Of $50 miles, and he is by
no means figurehead, for in periodi-
cal revolutions he often holds the bal
ance Of power and dictates terms to
the'contending leaders. The Mosquito
coast is the most backward, CONNER
eially and industrially, of all the re.
sions bordering on the Caribbean, and
for this the San1bo king Is directly re.
sponsible. He is shrewd enough to
know that wherever the white man
gets footing the native soon van:
ishes, and therefore has he refused
the granting Of concessions, for the
exploitation Of the. valuable forests Of
his kingdom, nor will he allow his
subjects to sell their lands Thus this
willy Indian ruler, who can't write his
name, has, managed to hold his terri
tory in . its primal state against the
avaricious schemes Of the white man.
His people obey him unquestionably
and the general government Is con-
t 70 let him alone" ... g..
