THE French government has appro-
priated 10000 francs for the making
of casts from sculpture in the Trocadero,
to be presented to Harvard and Yale uni
versities. This is a gift much to be COW
eted, and one which ii was thought some
months ago was to go to the National
Gallery as we'll. Had it been known that
the National Gallery would have been
glad to have received such a gift there is
little doubt that an additional appropria-
ton Of 1900 francs would have been
cheerfully made to cover the cost France
is proverbially generous in such matters.

 Dr. William Belmont, of Clevc- land, Ohio, says " Your Castoria stands first in it's class. In my thirty years of practice can say I never have found anything that SO filled the place."
 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich, says prescribe your Cas- toria extensively as I have never found anything to equal it for chill dren's troubles. am aware that there are limitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's."
 Dr. Charming H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo-, says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is a great consideration in view of the fact that most medi- cines of this character are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything shat ever prescribed.

TALES FROM OVER SEAS.

Charms as cures for sickness were common in England a century ago. Lady Wake who was born in 1900, tells of a grewsome cure adopted for the removal of some birthmarl1s which disigured her face Her mother was persuaded that "a dead mans hand laid upon my cheek and hands would effectually remove the marks she writes. .tAs man could not be killed for the occasion it was necessary to wiat until some one died. An old man at last did die in one of the nearest cottages and I was taken there in my sleep I remember, afterward, being constantly stopped by the widow, who always examined my cheek in order to ascertain the state of her husbands body. as the marks. she told my nurse, would certainly fade away as he turn ed into dust. Whatever the cause of the cure, the marks in time disap- peared."
 Hints conveyed by dreams are oc- casionally worth hearing" says the London Chronicle ''The late Lord Dufferin, when in Paris. dreamed that he was in a hearse on the way to the cemetery. A few days later as he was about to enter the elevator of eer- tain hotel, he was startled to find that the attendant was double of the driver of the hearse in his dream. He thereupon promptly left the ele- vator and walked upstairs The car ascended without him, but as 1t neared the top something in the mechanism gave way and the passengers met their death. Had they also, one wonders, been forewarned in a dream?''
 Sultan, Prince Bismarck's favorite boar-hound, attacked a passing rail- road train and was cut to pieces.

The New Queen and Gossip.

According 10 a writer in a contem- porary. Queen Mary has d great dis like to gossip and all kinds of back biting and scandal, and intends to use her influence to drive away this habit from society. I feel sure that all my readers will sympa thize with her in her efforts, as a recent case has shown how much unhappiness can be caused by repeating idle gossip and slander- But this betraying of ones sisters af- fairs in the market place is not en- tirely feminine aspect of human na- ture and men, though perhaps not quite so prone to it as women. are also adept at the hateful business. It is not to be supposed however, that Queen Mary can alter human nature, but We can all wish her success in her campaign.

COLONEL JARVIS PiNcHED. Fake Policemen Have Fun with Ser
 lin Colonel

Thirty members of the Farmers club" a branch of the Union League of New Haven. including Major w. H. Lyon and w. F. Parker Of this city. were held up near Derby Saturday by two fake policemen while speeding over nice patch of real good" state road en route to the farm home of Att torney Robert J. Woodruff.
 The farm of Farmer Bob Woodruff was to be the first stop. and Colonel Jarvis as president of the club was Woodruff in the proverbial large touring car,'' when the arrest took place.
 The first intimation of impending trouble came with a sound of crashing brushwood such as is made by hip pcpotamus at play in a woodbin- Ten carloads of farmers pricked up their ears and there was grinding of brakes as two huskies in the telltale blue uniform of the constabulary gal loped across the road, accompanied by a large gate. Planting it directly in the path of the cars the limbs of the law motioned for Q halt and issued a formal statement to the effect that the hull blamed bunch" were under arrest.
 There was brief period of impres- sive silence as the members of the Union League Farmers club adjusted their nerves.
 ..Arrested!" exclaimed Colonel Jar wis with rare composure.
 'sPinchedi" assured the constabu- lary.
 Woodruff.
 Exceeding the speed laws" came the grim reply. You were going 40 miles an hour. We timed you alI."
 '-ImpossfbIei" exclaimed the car owners in unison.
 Well, a fe1ler was killed here this mornin' an we've got to put a stop to this sort of thing" insisted the con stabulary.
 Do you know who we are?" ven tured a deep voice from car No. 3.
 NO: and we don't give whoop," came the laconic reply. You just fol- low us up the road.''
 Two forms were noticed looming up off the horizon this moment. They were coming from the direction of Prosecutor Woodruff's farm. Could it be a rescuing party? Quite so!
 Who should it be but Prosecutor Woodruff and his brother. Frank c. Woodruff. What? Can they be laugh ing? Yes. sir! having the chucl<le of a lifetime.
 A sigh of relief swept over the Farmers club as they realized that the entire affair was a joke. Introduce l tions to the two "constables' as farm hands on the Woodruff farms then and the party continued on errupted-Meriden Record.

Dr. w. l.. Leister, of Rogers, Ark, says :" As a practicing phy- sician use Castoria and like it very much"
 Dr. w. T. Seeley, of Anity, N. Y., says "I have used Jour Cas- toria for several /ears :@ ny practice and have found it a safe and reliable remedy"
 Or. Raymond M. Evarts, of Santa Ynez, Cal, says After using your Castoria for children for years it annoys me greatly to have an ignorant druggist substitute some thing else, especially to the pa tient's disadvantage, as in this case. I enclose herewith the wrapper of the imitation"
 Dr. R. Nj. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo, says Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepa- rations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice be- cause have found it to be thor oughly reliable remedy for chill dren's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as have, will join me in heartiest recom- mendation of Castoria."

Prominent Physicians Addressed H. Fletcher

Dr. L. O. Morgan, of So. Amboy, NJ. says: "I prescribe your Casto- ria every day for children who are suffering from constipation, with betAer effect than I receive from any other combination of drugs"
 Dr. IF. J. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Casto- ria and found it an excellent remedy in my household and priv ate practice for many years. The formula is excellent"
 Dr. Wm. l.. Bosserman, of Buff falo, N. r., says; "I am pleased to speak good word for your Casto- ria. I think so highly of it that I not only recommend it to others, bat have used it in my own family"
 Dr. F. Fl. Kyle, of St. Paul, Minn., says "It affords me plea sure to add my name to the long list of those who have used and now endorse your Castoria. The fact of the ingredients being known through the printing Of the formufh on the wrapper is one good and sufficient reason for the reoom- mendation of any physician. I know of its good qualities and rec commend it cheerfully."

To the Last for Annexation.

In the remarks of the American press upon Goldwin Smiths relation to the cause of continental union, that Is to say the union of the United States and Canada. we note here and there the impression that his faith weakened toward the last in consequence of the development of the imperial idea that naturally followed the participation of the colonies in the Boer war. The decline of Canadian interest in the question of annexation to the United States, or rather equal union with the United States, never changed Goldwin Smiths view of the manifest destiny of the two branches of the English speaking people on. this continent. The following is an extract rom an un- published letter written as lately as March of last year:
 I came to Canada believing. as a1- most all our public men in England, including even Disraeh, did, that inde- pendence was the ultimate destiny of the colonies I was diSillusioned in the case of Canada when I saw how totally deficient in compactness her territory was and how strong, com pared with the general population, was the French element. Compared with yOur population Gin the United StateS) the French element would be trif1ing and would be soon absorbed. AS sure Iy as the ultimate union of Scotland with England was dictated by nature, so surely dictated by nature is the ultimate reunion of the English speaking race on this continent. It will become more pressing in case of a formidable development on the side of Japan and perhaps China It will be greatly to the advantage of my own country which will thenceforth have on this continent instead of a precari ous outpost a natural and very pow erful ally.
 Here are presented, briefly and forci- bly, both Goodwin Smiths expectations as a philosophical observer of events and his personal hope as a patriotic Eng1ishman-New York Sun.
