A Home Ruler Before Gladstone.

Sir Wilfrid Lawson was a home
ruler long before Mr.. Gladstone. In
1881, when the Liberal government
was engaged in a policy of active re-
preston in Ireland. Lawson, in an ad-
dress to his constituents at Carlisle,
summarized the situation with charac-
tertistic shrewdness. 81 am convinced
Of one thing" he said, that, as sure
ly as I stand here. a disaffected nation,
hating the rule Of the nation that gov
erns it, is not a source of strength
to that country, but a source of weak
ness to everyone concerned in the
matter. Suppose you had a house.

SECRET BURIED IN A TOMB
"Jerome," fIova Scotia's Lesless Man
of Mystery, Silent for Half
Century, is Dead.

Within a few hundred yards Of a
beach where ffty-one years ago two
fishermen found him with his legs
amputated, "Gerome." Nova Scotia's
man of mystery. died a few days ago,
silent to the end about his identity.
Although he undoubtedly possessed
the power of speech, "Gerome" had
not c~Onversed with anyone in the half
century he had been cared for by
Didier CCmeau and the latter's sons
and DAUGHTERS. During all OF this time
"GerOme' had remained a mystery TO
the settlers here. most of whom are
known as returned Acadians," being
the descendants of the compatriots OF
Evangeline who returned to this part
of their adopted country after their
expulsion by the English in 1855.
Away back in the summer of 1861.
according to tradition. a ship differ
ent from those usually G e here, put
off a small BOAT which made for the
shore and deTosited above the tide
line an object that several hours later
was discovered to bs a man. His legs
had been freshly amputated and there
was a jug Of water and a package OF
ships biscuits beside the man, who
had suffered greatly from exposure.
Wrapped in blankets and taken to
the Comeau house. where, ever since
he had been a welcome member Of
the household, the man was finally
revived by a physician. In half a doz-
en- languages the man was asked:
what is your name?" To this
question. in italian. p%ropounded by the
elder Comeau, the mar made NUT
tered reply: "Gerome," Never after
that, however, did "Gerome" utter a
word except on n occasion. when
asked where he came from. Trieste"
was the reply made, seemingly in an
~unguarded moment.
Physicians from all parts Of the
world who have visited this land Of
Evangeline in the fiftyo-ne summers
that have elapsed since "Gerome" was
found on the beach, have studied the
mans case. Most of them have agreed
that he might have spoken had be de-
sired to do so: one or two have vouch-
safed the opinion that some terrible
experience through which "Gerome"
passed frightened him out Of his
senses and rendered him unable to ut
ter an Ineligible word.-New York

Sir Henry Irving a Victim.

Mr.. Grossmith, the noted English
funmaker, just deceased, was an in
veterate joker. and Sir Henry Irving
was once his victim when they were
both staying at the same hotel at
Manchester. Mr.. Grossmith, seeing an
enormous crowd outside the hotel,
said to the porter: care these peo-
pie waiting to see me?" On being told
that they were waiting to see Sir
Henry he turned up the collar Of his
overcoat. adjusted his eyeglasses,
pulled his soft hat down over his eyes,
and walked down the steps with the
Irving gait. There was great cheering,
but when Sir Henry Irving went down
later the crowd had dispersed. After
ward, when Sir Henry heard Of the in
cident, he said to Mr.. Grossmith, with
a twinkle in his eye: you ought not
to have done that; I pay those people
to come here every night."-London

Tears and Their Cause.

Tears have no more to do with sor-
row than with any other emotion, and
their persuasive powers should be nil.
Weeping is merely the dregs Of q
used-up emotion Of any character
whatever. Children cry even moro
easily than women, because their
nervous system is less stable; men
cry less because theirs is more de-
velOped and in better control.
