The Southern herald., 1910-10-28

NJ Lucien Magne, the French in
spector general of historical monu-
ments, has made one of the most re-
markable discoveries of recent years
in the old abbey of Fontevrault. That
certain Of Englands kings and queens
were buried there was we'll known,
but it has always been told that the
tombs were rihed many years ago.
Henry II. and Richard l. were buried
there, as were the wives Of King John
and Henry II.
The architects who were engaged
in restoring the abbey, after digging
down to the original level Of the nave
and demoIlshing the seventeenth-cen-
tury partition, discovered traces of in
scriptlons and paintings in an arched
recess of the northwest wall of the
transept 1t would seem that the abb
bess, Louise of Bourbon, in redecora-
ting the cloisters had closed up the
opening of the tombs, and hence they
had escaped being rifled as so many
other tombs were in the revolutionary
movement of 1889. And so they are
unearthed today-the actual remains
of Richard the Lion-Heart, and of his
father. Here the archaelogists and
other onlookers had before them all
that remains of the once fiery Richard
The most curious detail, however, is
that the sixteenth-century builders,
who transferred the tombs of the
Plantagenets to this side chapel, did
not hesitate to bend forward the up
per part of Henry lis skeleton down
to the lower part in order to shorten
the tomb SO that 1t might serve to
support the vaulted arch designed to
protect the second pair Of tombs; and
he who died of broken heart through
the ingratitude Of his sons was thus
cruelty and irreverently maltreated
3 after death. 1t is believed that the re-
mains of all four sovereigns will be
reburied under its own funeral monu-
ment at the entrance to the choir OF
the newly-restored abbey.

in Washington who devote themselves

ROMANCE OF A LOTTERY.

For some time no claim was made
for the chief prize of $4,000 in the
Brussels Exhibition lottery. The iden-
tity of the winning ticket has just
been established in curious way,
A young Belgian miner who had pur-
chased a ticket for the lottery was
killed while at work through a stone
falling on his head some days before
the results were announced. Accord
ing to custom he was buried in his
best suit of clothes.
When the weeks passed and the
prize remained unclaimed the young
mans relations remembered that he
had lottery ticket In his waistcoat
pocket, and applied to the authorities
for permission to exhume the body.
After some delay the request was
granted, and the winning ticket was
found in the dead mans pocket.

PUZZLED
Hard Work, Sometimes, to Raise
Children.

Children's taste Is ofttimes more 20

food to at the body, than that Of
adults. Nature works more accurate

A Brooklyn lady says: "Our little
boy had long been troubled with
weak digestion. We could never per
suade him to take more than one taste
Of any kind Of cereal food. He was
weak little chap and we were puz-
Eled to know what to feed him on.
"One lucky day we tried Grape
Nuts. Well, you never saw cliild
eat with such a relish, and It did me
good to see him. From that day on
It seemed as though we could almost
see him grow. He would eat Grape
Nuts for breakfast and supper, and ]
think he would have liked the food
for dinner.
"The difference in his appearances =
something wonderful.
my husband had never fancied CO
real foods Of any kind, but he be-
came very fond Of Grape-Nuts and has
been much improved in health since
using 1t.
I'VE are now healthy family, ana

"A friend has two children who were
formerly AFFLICTED with ricketts,. l was
satisfied that the disease was caused
by lack Of proper nourishment- They
showed 1t. So l urged her to use
Grape-Nuts as an experiment and the
result was almost magical.
"They continued the food and today

MONOPLANE HAT IN PARIS.

Considerable sensation was caused
on the Paris boulevards by a lady
with a monoplane hat. The hat, which
was exactly the shape Of a Bleriot
monoplane, was fastened on with two
large pins having ebony propellers by
way of knobs, and these propellers
turned in the wind. The new fashion
obtained so much recognition that the
owner of the hat called a taxicab. But
to the crowds intense amusement, the
lady could not get in through the door,
and the hood had to be lowered before
she could enter.

ANT THAT "CANS" FOOD.

Capt. Percy L. Jones of the United
States army medical corps makes an
interesting statement about certain
ants that attack the larvae of flies.
They do so in a way which proves
that they are no novices at the proce-
dure. One will attack an extremity,
and apparently bite 1t, and as soon as
the larva begins to coil and makes ef-
forts to escape, numbers of others will
Immediately jump upon 1t, and in the
course of a few moments the larva
will be apparently dead. l believe
that the ant introduces some venom in
the act Of biting, formic acid in char
acter, which preserves the larva as
food until such time as the ant needs
it-cans it, in other words"

MACHINE FOR WASHING MONEY
Device Which Scrubs, DlsInfeets and

Owing to the popular agitation in re

of the paper money in circulation, the
treasury department In Washington is
now making the experiment of laun.
dering all the grimy bills that are re-
turned by the banks for redemption,
says the Bookkeeper. For some time
past the department has been redeem
ing and destroying about $2,O00,0O0 in
bills daily, most Of them being one
and two dollar denominations, and

ing them to circulation was one of the
economies suggested by Charles d.
Norton-now secretary to the presi.
dent-formerly assistant secretary OF
the treasury. The machine now m
use is the invention of Frank B.
Churchill Its method Of operation ia
to take the bills, spread them on a
screen and pass them rapidly through
a solution Of soap and water, which
takes off the CRIME. Another disk then
carries them through a strong solu'
tion, which acts as a germ destroyer,
after which a third bath removes all
traces of the other two washes and
prepares the bill for the platter
which Is similar in character to the
roller used in pressing new money.

Although millions of names are col.

census, 1t is impossible for the officials
to satisfy the requests of many per
sons, who are under the impression
that the bureau is admirably fitted to
locate lost persons.
Letters are daily pouring in from all
parts of the country asking for news
of individuals who have deserted their
wives and families and who are being
searched for by relatives. While the
census office is for statistical purposes
the names are not arranged alphabet

She has seldom been Ill during her
long and strenuous career, and then
only with slight colds, headaches, and
such minor ailments.
