SHE LIVED WITH SKELETON
Aged and Eccentric English Woman
Expected Termination Of Dead
Spinster Friend.

The discovery OF a skeleton Of a
woman who died apparently two or
three years ago, and whose remains
have been kept in bedroom by an
other woman, so that they could both
be buried together" has been made by
the police at Gyimborne, Dorset, Eng
land.
An inquest was held the other day,
and as strange a story was told as has
probably ever been heard in coro-
aer's court.
Sarah Mary Kearley, spinster, aged
sixty-four, said the remains which
we're found in bed were those Of Ellen
Griffin, who was nearly seventy years
Of age and who had lived with witness
over thirty years after leaving service
together in London.
"One morning. continued witness,
Miss Griffin was not so well, and she
tainted and died before I went to work.
I slept in the same bed two nights with
the body, thinking that she would
come to life again"
Witness said she did not tell anyone
'of the death as she intended keeping
the remains as long as she lived, so
that they could both be buried to-
gether.
They had no quarrel, witness de-
clared, and added she worked for and
kept Miss Griffin. who could only do a
little sewing.
The town surveyor, who said he had
known Miss Kearley for many years,
said that both women We're eccentric.
A doctor said the skeleton was found
In a natural reclining position. There
was not a vestige Of flesh remaining,
and from an examination his opinion
was that death was due to natural
causes.
An open verdict was returned.

QUEER WHIMS FOR FUNERALS
EngIishman's Coffin Made Of 1000
Matchboxes-Unusual Burial
at Sea.

An enormous crowd gathered at
Chester d few months ago to witness
the funeral of an electrical engineer,
who was carried to the cemetery in
coffin that had been laboriously con-
structed by himself out of 1000 match
boxes. These, with their tops visible
and advertising their respective max
ers, were vanished over and strength
ened inside with wood. On the coffin
was placed an electric battery says
London Tit-Bits.
Some years ago a maiden lady died
at Calemis-sur-Lys in France, who
was reported to have been a cham
pion snuff taker. She enjoyed singu-
larly good health, retained all her
mental faculties and died at a ripe
old age. Her funeral was most ex-
traordinary. Her wish was that her
coffin should be filled with tobacco,
the floor of the mortuary chamber
carpeted with it and the heir to the
property charged to scatter tobacco
before the hearse on the way to the
cemetery.
A lady who left Liverpool some time
ago by the Lucania crossed the At
lantic on unique mission. A promi-
nent New York business man, who
died recently, directed in his will that
his remains should be cremated and
the ashes scattered on the waters of
the Atlantic from Cunard steamer.
The Lucania, being the special favor
lite of the deceased gentleman, was
selected, and the lady in question, at
a time fixed, SO that simultaneously
the family could attend a memorial
service in New York, cast the ashes
from an urn into the ocean. A Ger
tificate was given by the captain Of
the Lucania stating the latitude and
longitude in which the ashes were
committed to the deep.

FEET DEMAND PROPER CARE
Arc Hardworked Members Of the Body
and Deserve Better Treatment
Than They Receive.

Women who spend hours caring for
their hands pay little attention to their
feet. They are such hardworked mem
bers of the body that they deserve bet
ter treatment.
Feet are best kept in condition by
shoes that fit. Never economic in
shoe leather, and do not yield to vanity
and get footgear that is too small.
Frequent bathing keeps the feet
from being tired and swollen and 1t
prevents roughness Of the skin that
leads to callous spots.
Water in which a bit Of washing
soda has been dissolved is restful. Hot
salt water is equally refreshing, while
a vigorous rubbing with alcohol will
quickly relieve a burning sensation.
Pumice stone, used frequently, keeps
the skin smooth. 1t is especially neces-
sary on the heels and on the ball Of
the foot, where the weight of the body
rests in walking.
Never cut the nails too short, as they
are more likely to become ingrown.
And file them smooth with sandpaper,
SO they will not catch and pull the
threads Of your stockings
Occasionally visit chiropodist. He
will detect any irregularity in the
growth of nails and money and pain
are saved.

STRICT ENGLISH COURT RULE
Queen, Shocked az La.Sity In Society,
Makes Erasures IL Her vis-
ltine Lists.

Queen Mary is making her infu-
ence and her strong personality felt at
court in no uncertain manner, and
those who wish to be received and to
be held in good repute within it's
charmed circle must look well to their
manner Of going.
Never before have there been so
many erasures from submitted lists
and never has the line been SO sharp
ly drawn as to the proper qualifca-
tions as at the present time, the New
York Herald's London correspondent
states. No lady who steps out of her
sphere of true womanliness and cor
rect feminine modesty; no one who
has a breath of scandal against her
or him (for the male sex is also in
cluded in the ban), and, above ALL no
individual who has figured as a prin-
cipal in the divorce court need seek
to find favor with Queen Mary, and
such one applying for a Command"
to the royal presence will surely meet
with a prompt refusal.
The queen-and the king is said to
be in cordial agreements deter
mined that her court shall. as far as
possible, be one Of absolute purity.
She has been much shocked at the
many causes celebres and their un-
edifying details, as well as by the So
called recreations and amusements of
certain section of society. More
over. it is reported that the queen
views with great dislike any further
laxity in connection with the divorce
law. She regards the marriage tie
as sacred and binding, and while de-
ploring the lightness with which in
many cases the contracts are under
taken, she yet holds that once it has
been entered into it should be held in
violate.
1t is even whispered that Queen
Mary has brought her influence to
bear on the subject to very material
extent and that government inaction
with regard to the findings of the re-
cent divorce commission is thus not
a little accounted for.

CANDY FOR INFANT BRIDES
Marriages In One Caste In India Al
ways Occur Before the Age
Of Twelve.

Four hundred weddings were cele-
brated simultaneously on a recent
Saturday at Surat, India, among mem
bers Of the Lewa Kunbi caste, accord
ing to the London Mirror.
None Of the brides was over twelve
years of age, the majority being from
one to six years old, while the bride
grooms varied from three to nine.
Most of the contracting parties sat or
lay on the laps of their parents during
the ceremony, and were given sweets
to keep them quiet.
The caste only celebrates weddings
every ten or twelve years. It is quite
common thing for the children of
the caste to be married when they are
only four, five or six years of age, but
marriages at an earlier age than four
are exceptional.
These baby brides, of course, do not
join their husbands when they are
married. They wait until they reach
the age Of ten or eleven, when there
is a second marriage.
Should a baby brides husband die
before she reaches the age for the sec
ond marriage she becomes a widow
and has to remain so all her life.
In such cases the widow at once
loses caste. Her ornaments are taken
off her and she becames a sort Of out
cast, looked down upon and generally
made household drudge.
The husband, on the other hand.
should his baby bride die before the
second marriage, may marry again.
In fact, he is expected to do so within
a few months Of the death Of the
bride.
II he does not marry again within a
few months he loses caste. His fel.
lows refuse to smoke or drink with
him.

these time-honored affairs are apt
nowadays to be given with some new

pensive than the tin shower, but It

HIS LUCKY LUCKY MISTAKE
Accidental Exchange Of Manu-

Two Aspiring Students.
BY MILDRED CAROLINE GOOD

''This is a great moment in your
life, my son" said the mother OF

clared Algernon Barclays sister
Don't you think so, Irma?"

sweet as her eyes answered the deep
love light in his own.
"Well, we will soon know" pro
claimed Adolphus himself Where is
my manuscript? All, here. Good-by."
and kissing all three Of the best
friends young man ever had, the
hope of the Barclay family made a
rush for the railroad depot.
A year out of college, critic and au-
thority on ancient literature, Adolphus
was striving hard to win the tutelary
plum of Harris college. 1t was a two
thousand dollars per year position,
with perquisites. In case he won it,
there would be a wedding, family
removal, and he would feel settled for
life.
So far everything looked favorable.
Adolphus had appeared before the au-
gust college faculty and had read his
paper on Egyptian poetry He had
made a hit. 1t seemed as if his posi-
tion was assured. A few days later,
however, the president of Harris wrote
him to come down with something
bright and interesting, and give the
students sample Of his erudition.
Il understand a good many wealthy
men send their sons to Harris, >"
Adolphus explained to his mother. II

cater to them. If | make favorable
impression on the students, | fancy
I will be acceptable all around"
The result was the manuscript in
the black leather roll which Adolphus

now carried It dealt with ancient
romance, precisely the thing to suit a
lot Of young fellows, he decided.
Adolphus caught the train just in
time, threw his roll up in the car rack
and sank into his seat to move along
to make room for a second hurry-up.
This latter also carried a manuscript
roll the exact counterpart Of that be-
longing to Adolphus. He likewise
tossed this into the rack, and smiled
broadly as he said:
"Music?"
"oh, no." replied Adolphus lee

for his manuscript roll and rushing
for the depot platform.
In due time Adolpbus arrived at the
college town. A committee Of seniors
met him at the hotel and then escort

were inclined to be chummy with
Adolphus.
Il wish had made that lecture a
little lighter and more entertaining

thoughts, as he faced a throng in the
chapel composed entirely of students.
They were lively set, and the hum
OF careless chatter indicated that they
would be restless or riotous, just as
the humor took them.
Adolphus had been studious col.
lege man, and his trend was dignifled
and grave. He ascended to the ros-
trum and opened his manuscript roll.
