F0RESAW HER DOOM.
Warnings Of Her Tragic Fate That
Came TO Empress Elizabeth.

In MY Royal Clients NJ Paoli, the
famous French detective. writing OF
the unfortunate Empress Elizabeth Of
Austria. who was so fouly murdered
in Geneva in 1898. says that two
strange incidents incline one 10 the
belief that the empress received a pre-
sentiment Of her tragic end
"0n the eve Of her departure for
Geneva she asked Mr. Barker to read
her few chapters Of book by Mar
ion Crawford. entitled 'Corleone. In
which the author describes the detest-
able customs Of the Sicillan Malta.

him. AS a man in the ranks he would
have been a SOLDERING and steadying
influence. And it is important TO re-
member that, even as a leader, dis
playing a remarkable fallibility, he
did Indirectly serve the cause he
cherished by winning the generous
regard of men of all parties, who,
when bitterness was at its height,
found their passions insensibly mod
flied by the fact that this good man
was their friend
We dislike, therefore, TO think of
Mr. Mccarthy as a member of Par
lament, much less as a leader. We
delight to recall his achievements as
literary man and to dwell upon the
charm of his companionship His
novels were the bulk of his offending
in the former character His bio
graphies were accurate, illuminative
and models of taste, and his History
of Our Own Times" is one of the few
books that must survive, because of
its fair judgments, its penetrative
analyses, the depth of its perspective
and the charm of its style. These
things, we are persuaded, will stand
and so, especially here in Boston
where Mr. Mccarthy was known and
we'll beloved-he was one of the very
few men ever elected by the Papyrus
club to honorary membership-will
the memory of his at-homeness, il
one may so speak, in the house OF
his friends. Always unpretentious
and sometimes a trifie shy, he reveal
ed in congenial associations the
wealth OF his experience and the
treasures of his fancy, and, whether
he spoke to one or a score, dominated
the talk in spite OF himself. He
served Ireland faithfully and accord
ing to his best intention. But nc
paltry prejudice withheld his appre
citation of men "of his kind" in any
race, and there are such men every
where who will feel his departure as
a personal loss.-Boston Transcript

A BIRD OF LIGHT.
The Arctic Tern Shuns the Night by
Flights From Pole to Pole.

TH9ntS from TOle 70 Toles
II used to be thought that the golden
plover bore off the palm for length Of
fight between summer and winter
homes. but an article in the National
Geographic Magazine awards that dis
tin.tion to the arctic tern. This bird
breeds as far north as il can find any
thing stable on which to construct its
nest. 1t has been found within seven
and half degrees of the pole itself
And that nest was found surrounded
by a wall of newly fallen snow, which
the mother bird had carefully scooped
out from round her chick.
The tern arrives in the far north
about June 10 and leaves again for the
south toward the last OF August, when
the young are able to fly strongly Two
or three months later the birds are to
be found skirting the edge OF the ant
arctic continent, 1000 miles away.
What their track is over that vast
space no one yet knows. A few indi-
viduals are occasionally seen along the
New England or Long Island coast
In the fall, but the hocks Of thousands
and thousands Of these gregarious birds
which alternate from pole to pole have
never been met by any trained observ-
er competent TO learn their preferred
path and their time schedule. They
must travel at least $50 miles each
day-apart from their flights In search
or in pursuit Of food-to carry them
within ten or twelve weeks from one
end Of the world 10 the other.
The arctic terms enjoy more hours
of sunlight than any other creatures
on the globe The sun never sets dur
ing their stay at their northern nest
ing grounds. and during their stay In
the south they have two months Of
continuous sunlight and practical day
light for two months more The birds
have twenty four hours Of daylight fol
between six and eight months OF the
year.

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS
Don't Mistake the Cause Of Your
Troubles

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame
weak or aching back they think that
it is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think ii
will soon correct itself. And so it is
with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders That is just where
the danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to dropsy
or Brights disease. The best endors-
ed remedy for weak or diseased kid
neys is Doan's Kidney Pills. Resi-
dents of this vicinity are constantly
testifying
Fred Thompson, farmer, of North
Bennington, VT, says: For some
time my back was lame and ached Sc
verely and ! was hardly able to bend
or stoop. Doan's Kidney Pills were
finally brought to my attention and
began their use. They made me feel
