Stanley Was a Wait.

Stanley, the famous explorer, was
waif, and his original name was
not Stanley at all, says the Delinea-
tor. The little boys "real name"
was John Rowlands. He was born
near Denbigh, Wales, in 1910.
When he was three years old he was
put in a poorhouse at st. Asaph.
1t was ten years later that he sailed
away to America as a cabin boy. In
New Orleans a merchant by the
name of Henry Morton Stanley
adopted him, and the little boy was
given his name. The "John Row

and it was Henry NJ. Stanley, Jr.,

THE SACK MOVED.
A Young Girls Terrible Ordeal In q
Lonely Farmhouse.

A young girl had a terrible expe-
rience at a lonely farmhouse on the
estate of Count Karolyi, near Buda-
pest. Early in the evening a man,
apparently almost exhausted by car
ryfng a heavy sack, knocked at the
door of the farm and begged for a
nights shelter. The only occupant
Of the place at the time was the
farmers young daughter. She nat
uralE refused to admit him, but at
his earnest entreaty allowed him to
leave the sack. The stranger, de-
posting his burden in the kitchen,
then left, and the girl continued
her preparations for an evening
meal.
A noise caused her to look
around, and to her horror she saw
that the sack was moving. Then
the blade of knife appeared, slow
ly cutting through the sacking.
Thoroughly terrified, she picked up
her fathers gun and fred. The
moveRent stopped at once, and
blood commenced to Ocze through
the sScking.
The girl, now almost mad with
alarm fed from the house. AS she
tore down the road she fortunately
met her father, and he, having OBJ
tanned the assistance Of two gen.
darm@, hurried home. The gen.
darmes speedily cut open the sack
and inside found the dead body of
a burly man, armed with a revolver
and a knife, with a gunshot wound
in the head, which had evidently
caused death.
Suspended from his neck was a
whistle, and, believing it was intend
ed as a means of summoning ac-
completes, the police blew a series
of calls. Almost Immediately three
men ran up and, seeing themselves
trapped, opened fire with revolvers.
A desperate fight followed, the gen.
darmes using their revolvers freely.
One of the robbers was shot dead,
and his two companions were cap
tured.

Cocaine.

Cocaine is an alkaloid of a small
shrub found in Peru and Bolivia.
The official name of the drug as
used in medicine is cocaine sui,
phate, a salt derived from the shrub
treated with sulphuric acid. Cocaine
is composed of carbon, hydrogen
and nitrosyl reduced to sulphate.
Each element of the compound has
direct influence on the nervous
system, blood and lymphatics. 1t
possesses the singular property of
killing all sensation of pain in the
parts where it is locally applied
while elevating the mind of the pa
tient to a high pitch of exaltation.

With Fathers Music.

Bragdon, the composer, was
working on his symphonic poem
when the baby's lusty cry was
heard from the nursery. Bragdon
bore it manfully for five minutes,
expecting baby's mother to come to
the rescue. Then he opened the
door and shouted upstairs:
What is the matter? Harry, are
you teasing the baby?"
"No, papa"
You must be doing something
to make him cry"
NO, papa-truly! All Ethel and
l did was to try to sing him to sleep
with your lullaby"

Mr Burns told me repeatedly that

that ne personally sincerely appreci-
