The Crimea and the whole Black
sea region, owing to the sparse popu-
lation TO consume II, had a great sur.
plus of wheat. For centuries IL was
coveted by all hungry nations-and
exploited by the one with the strong

had feasted upon the grain-raising
lands beyond the Bosphorus, Mithri-
dates, as a preparation for his life and
death contest with Rome, fell upon
the corn fields of the Crimea. Because
Sicily was yellow with wheat from
earliest memory, through ages and
ages she was raided by all the powers
of the world. II was because OF
Egypt's corn, more plentiful than any.

Sicily, Sardinia, Spain and Egypt that
she could become mistress of the
world.

Women Of Rrunsela.

The length OF life OF an averaE,
woman, in Brussels, at least is super
ior TO man. Statistics show that dur
ing the last two years the feminine
element has predominated in the
Brussels population. In 1908 there
were only 7s4s boys in the Belgian
capital between the ages Of 10 and
10, and 1908 girls OF the same age.
After 20 years the difference increases
in favor OF the woman. and while
Brussels only possessed e,3s3 males
OF 20 70 rs years and e.1s1 Of 25 20
80 the fairer half OF the human race
was represented by 11.701 and 10.s9s
respectively. The supremacy the
feminine element keeps positively to
the end, as far as Brussels IA con
cerned While Brussels has only IS
men Of IS or 90 years and ten mona
genarians only, she can count lsi
women between the ages Of So and
90. 35 Of IS years, and six Of more
than 95 years.

In Cromwell's
Time
BY FRANK n. SWEET

Twas the 9Th of September, 81, as
I rode up the Newbury road. II
seemed that years rather than few
days, had passed since / fought with
my liege on Inflated Worcester field
And now in the bitter anguish OF my
heart, cursed the fates that had made
Cromwell ruler Of England, and my
king an exile from his land.
Thus ran my thoughts, when a sud
den scream came from the road be-
hind.
Hastily tightening my armor,
wheeled my horse and waited. Around
a bend in the road came two men, and
betwixt them maid, quite sad and
forlorn. The sight Of their Puritanic
garb set the blood tingling in my
veins.
Whence came you, sir?" demand
ed he who appeared TO be in com.
mand; you look jaded."
Verify, Master Rowe" sneered the
other casting a suspicious glance at
me, "he seems surely spent, as though
he had ridden from afar, from Worces.
ter field"
But cared not to disclose myself
so early in the play, and so turned to
them with a light laugh
Softly, softly, Master Rowe" an.
swered, "all in good time. But whence
take you the maid?"
"She hath a ribald tongue, even for
a royalist, and dost this night, with the
help Of God, lodge in Newbury Jail"
he answered.
Mechanically gave my name in an.
swer TO their questioning glances, for
l was looking at the maid, from the
dainty poise Of her head to the modest
show Of ankle meath her gown. AL
ready knew my heart was no longer
my own, and the wistful look she bent
on me searched out my very soul
Awhile sat in silence. Then I
threw myself from my horse and
walked past them. they making reluc-
tant way for me.
What name, child?" l asked.
Margaret Grant, sir" she answered
prsttily, dropping me a courtsey. Then,
with a sudden defiance: II believe IN
y king"
Say no more. child" interrupted;
-and care you 10 so TO Newbury?"
Nay" she made answer. drawing \
pace nearer me. Twas entirely un.
looked for. this act Of confidence. and
II set the red blood dancing merrily in
my veins.
Then" quoth I. unsheathing nv

rot CO."
In an instant tho two had drawn.

Good Health HssIts.

Of the days work. and your Ill health
Will not be taceable 10 your habits Of

BY eating a portion Of meat with one

and water, every need OF the body can
be supplied without overlooking the

Meals, TO do good and maintain the
