TRAN empress, Maria Theresa
When Won Reuter- became choirmas-

Joseph Haydn among his pupils.
During a visit to the Hungarian
Prince Esterhazy, in 1873. Maria The
resa took occasion to say a word Of
praise to Haydn, who had composed
the music of the opera given in her
honor and had conducted the perform
ance. She expressed the conviction
that she had seen him before, although
she could not remember the occasion.

Then Haydn told of Whitsuntide
when, with other pupils of Won Reuter-,
he had been brought to Schoenbrunn to

the scaffolding Of the new wings Of the
palace. The empress caught sight of
them and sent word forbidding the

LEGENDS ABOUT DEW.

Curious Beliefs as to It's Origin and
Varied Powers.
In many places dew is looked upon
as tears of the angels and of the souls
In purgatory shed Oh account of the
sins of human beings upon earth, and
dew is collected to be used to cure GER
tain diseases, especially those Of the
eyes, freckles, badness, cramps, open
wounds and cuts. rheumatism. skin
diseases, burns, etc.
The virtues Of dew as beauty wash
are also well known, remarks the Jour-
nal of Religious Psychology. One leg
end tells how by licking the dew of
the plants on a certain morning when
all the birds drink 1t one can learn
their language.
Another folk. belief is that naked or
with only their dbirts on the witches at
the time of the new moon collect the
dew from the grass with bark sleeves.
BY this means they deprive of their
milk the cows that have been pastured
on the grass, and as soon as their
sleeves are full of dew they know that
their pots at home are full Of milk.
The Polish people of Wongrowitz call
the dew on which the birds are sup
posed to feed patasie mieko[. e.,

THE GOBLIN FRIAR.v
One of the specters That Are Said to
Haunt Newstead Abbey.

Haunt Newstead Abbey.
Newstead abbey, the home of Lord
Byron. has the reputation of being
haunted by more than one specter,
and many curious noises and strange
sights have been heard and seen by
residents and visitors there But the
best known and most noted specter
connected with the place and immortal
fzed in Byron verse is the Goblin
Friar" The particular chamber which
this specter is supposed especially to
frequent and which is known par
excellence as the haunted chamber
adjoins Byron's bedroom. Lord Byron
and many others not only believed in
the existence of the Black Friar, but
asserted that they had really seen it.
1t did not confine its visitations. how
ever. to the "haunted chamber" but
at night walked the cloisters and other
portions of the abbey.
A monk arrayed
In cowl and beads and dusky garb ap-
peared,
Now in the moonlight and now lapsed
in shade
With steps that trod as heavy, yet un-
heard.
This apparition is the evil genius of
the Byrons. and its appearance portends
misfortune of some kind to the mem
Der of the family to whom it appears.
Lord Byron fully believed that he be-
held this apparition short time be-
fore the greatest misfortune of his
life, his i'll starred union with Miss
Millbanke. Abiding to his belief in
these things. he said:
/ merely mean to say what johnson said
That in the course of some six thousand
years
All nations have believed that from the
dead
A visitant at intervals appears,
And what is strangest upon this strange
head
Is that whatever bars the reason rears
Gainest such beliefs there's something
stronger still
In its behalf. let those deny who will.

He who restraints not mis- tongue
shall live in trouble. Brahman Maxim
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-07-19

From "On the Branch" by Pierre de Coulevain.
 As in my time. I see girls dreaming and grandmothers telling their beads or grumbling. Sentiment, sentimentality, all that is feminine, the ordinary charity and nothing else as yet. Not a single aspiration toward a wider life, not a sign of Individuality.
 In these surroundings I am almost ashamed of my modernism. Accustomed as I am to the frank ways of the Eng hsh woman, to the open mind of the American woman, the French girl is to me an anachronism. She gives me the impression of a plant that has never had enough air and water, and which has difficulty in breathing. Slow and languid, she does not feel the mere joy of living, the need of action. She tries sports in order to sacrifice to fashion, but her body, badly trained for it, protests.
 The knowledge with which her brain has been crammed does not make ideas germinate there, and does not give her the desire to know still more. She seems to me tired, satiated, artificial already. SnOulQ llke to take her 1ntO the forest, to the mountain or the seaside in order to put her in direct contact with all the divine forces of nature. I should like, too, to take her on a pilgrimage to Italy, to Spain, and through France in order that She might know the treasures of beauty which are our inheritance.
 When I watch her, her needle plying backward and forward through a piece of silk or canvas, I long to shake her. I know what she is dreaming about. Without being aware of it herself, she is already subjected to the possession of man, Her thoughts wander toward the mystery that she suspects, disturbing images are formed in her mind, and the warm breath of instinct tarnishes the first bloom of her being. Mothers ought to remember. Mothersl They think of nothing but of guarding of their daugh- | ters, of giving them a liberal dowry and of arranging a rich marriage for them. They spoil their sons in the hope of at taching them to themselves and of thus winning them from their future rival | the daughter-in-law. This maternity is practiced with us still in the twentieth | century.

Our Athletic Supremacy

The American athletes and their friends have sailed for home, bringing away from Stockholm many prizes. In the Marathon run they were defeated by South Africans, but in general way they were the chief prize takers of the Olympic. The Americans scored 12S points, the Swedes 104, the British 66, the Films 46, the Germans 34 and the French 23. The show ing made by the Films was as surpris- ing as the totals of Great Britain and Germany were disappointing.
 The trouble with England and Ger many was class rule. They selected their representative athletes from the great universities filled as a rule by the sons of the rich, while America, more democratic, took them where ever they could be found. The other countries must be democratized also if they expect to win many prizes in the next tournament. The athletes of no country are confined to great uni versailles, and the American organi- zation does right to prefer a demo- cratic basis and policy.
 The next tournament is to be held in Berlin in 1916, and democratic America will be very apt to rub in the lesson that was excellently pre- sented in Stockholm. The public schools in this country contain more and better athletes than the universi- ties do. l

Good Road Days in August

The Alabama Good Roads associa- tion having designated August IA, 15 and 16 as good road days, it is earn estly hoped that the people through out the state will respond enthusiastic cally. The association has sent out formal appeal through the probate judges in the 67 counties of the state. This appeal is approved by President John Craft, First Vice President John w. O'Neill, Second Vice President H. K. Milner, Third Vice President John H. Bankhead and Fourth Vice Presi- dent Oscar w. Underwood.
 The good road days designated will find the farmers with ample leisure. No crop work will be pressing, and the weather in all probability will be dry. The object of inaugurating the good road days movement is to have all the people who are subject to road duty work the highways simultaneous ly in every section of the state; also to secure the cooperation of the property owners and have them furn- ish teams and labor, and see that the public roads through their property are worked on these days"
 The excessive rains last spring and during the summer have greatly dam aged even the best macadamized roads and have made the old country dirt roads rougher than usual. For weeks at a time many county roads have been impossible on account of the mire. Every farmer in every county of Alabama should exert himself on the 14th, 10th and 18th of August and assist in putting the roads in his neighborhood in high class condition. Nothing brings such satisfactory and unfailing results as the building of good roads. Nothing pays better. Every county that has made progress in macadamizing its highways can be counted on to make even larger expen- ditures in the future, and the counties that have been backward should wake up and try to redeem themselves.

Good Roads nuiIdIng

''The state highway commission the Alabama Rural Letter Carriers associa- tion and 37 county commissioners courts have indorsed the good road days fixed by the Alabama Good Roads association said man who has taken an active inter est in the movement.
 August 14. 15 and 16 are the days des- ignated on which the people throughout the state are asked to work the roads. Governor O'Neal will issue proclamation indorsing the state associations good road days movement.
 "Ten years ago few counties had macadamized roads, and Q campaign Of education was needed to stress the im- portance of good road building. Great progress has been made, but there is yet much to be done. The association de- serves praise for keeping up the agita- tion. It is hoped that within the next two or three years such a thing as a bad road in Alabama will be a rare exception to the rule.''
