''Then, by st. Patrick, I'll tell the tale
to you as we go there.
When Costa returned he said to
O'Ryan, "You are to have a chance tt
tell your tale"
We were soon conducted to the Don
where we were presented to the king.
His majesty listened to Costa's story
of our coming to the capital. Then
Organ wa permitted to tell his story.
He was questioned sometimes in a
mirthful way, and then severely, about
his service in behalf of the princess.
and then questioned about Vasca and
his valor, and about Vasca's actions in
behalf Of the princess.
After all this the king looked at me
and said to Organ:
"Stand back, sir, let me look at this
new recruit"
He motioned me and / approached.

Uncle Joe's Check.

Col Henry Casson, sergeant-at-arms of the house of representatives, has the original check given by Speaker Joseph c. Cannon a few years ago to book agent, and about which an in- teresung story has been told
 An agent visited the speaker and in terested him in an elaborate edition of something which Uncle Joe didn't want, but bought When the books arrived Uncle Joe examined them and decided at once that something had been put over him. When the agent came for his money the speaker de- termined to make him indorse terse sentiment on books, so he wrote out a check for s73, the amount due, and on the back of It inscribed:
 Pay to the order of Mir. Blank, in full payment fer an edition which was not worth a d., and dear at that price, but for the ease and grace with which he put 1t over your Uncle Joe It WAS well worth the money "-Hu- man Life

He had played martial airs all through the fight and the name was changed to Trask rock in commemoration of his bravery. Trask at the time of the war was a boy of eighteen, and long after the war he visited the site of the rock and the battle and told the story. It is said that more han 100 lives were lost on the American side in that fight out of about 400 engaged
 In the year 1928 the Dyce's Head lighthouse was built on the north side of the entrance to the harbor, being named after the first settler in that part of the town It was originally built of wood and was very shabbily constructed. It became so much in need of repairs and so unsafe that in 1858 it was torn down and another one built in it's place. The head was properly named for John Jacob Dyce, who owned it in 1775.

It was once surrounded by water, by reason of the trenches dug by the British while the territory was in their hands In 1872, but it is now part of the mainland.
 The town has relics and historical bits of interest. forts of French. Brit ish and American build. and an old blockhouse, all of which interest the historian. One of the most interest ing of these old sites is "Trask rock" once called "Hinckley's rock It is situated on the western shore. It was the landing place of the Americans at the time of the Penobscot expedi- ton, when they made an attempt to secure possession of the island
 Trask rock Is of a peculiar white ness. It is large and showy, made conspicuous by background of bowl ders and precipiee It is situated about halfway between the point where the blockhouse was located dur ing the war, and the present site of the lighthouse on Dyce's Head This side of the island being weakly pro- tected in 1912, the Americans were enabled to make a successful landing.
 The landing took place on the night of July 2S The weather was damp, and a slight swell tossed the vessels as they moered along the eoastline just beyond the reach of the British musketry on shore. About three o'clock in the morning preparations were made for a landing. In the screen of low-hanging fog about 400 marines and militia landed on and near the Trask rock.
 A section of the landing force was under command of Captain Hinckley, who, landing on the Trask rock as the British opened fire, urged his men on up the steep bank. He was killed in the rush by a shot fired from a force of the enemy on the rock which long bore his name. As "Hinckley rock 1t was known until after years, when a MT. Trask. who was a drummer in the American ranks. visited the town.

COULD NOT STAND SUFFERING
 FROM SKIN ERUPTION

T have been using Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for the past three months and I am glad to say that they cured me of a most annoy ing skin eruption. It began by my no- ticing red blotches appearing on my face and scalp. Although they were rather disfguring, I did not think any thing of them until they began to get scaly and dry and to Itch and burn until could not stand the suffering. Then 1 began to use a different soap, thinking that my old kind might be hurting me, but that didn't seem to do any good. I went to two different doc tors but neither seemed to relieve me any. l lost many nights sleep in con- tnual scratching, sometimes scratch ing till I drew the blood on my face and head. Then I started in to use the Cuticura Remedies and in two months 1 was entirely relieved of that awful pest. 1 am so delighted over my cure by Cuticura Remedies that shall be glad to tell anybody about it." tSigned) G.
