He's a Wonder to His Wife.

A Missouri lady is trying an expert
ment. Her husband is brilliant man,
but loquacious. Realizing his short
comings, the wife is feeding him on
fish. Three or four times a week she
prepares fish in some delectable way.
He is showing some uneasiness and
has a marked prediction for water,
but being innocent of his wifes mo-
tive, continues to eat the dishes set be-
fore him.
To her pastor, the wife recently con-
fided:
You see," soberly, John is a very
remarkable man, but he wastes too
much time sermonizing when he should
be thinking. He talks altogether too
much. To counteract this, / am feed
ing him fish. During the last two
months have served him with seven.
teen different varieties of fish cooked
in forty-seven different ways" a
why fish," asked the pastor, great
ly interested.
Because replied the wife, fish is
food for thought"
Il see," said the reverend gentleman
"but have you noticed any marked
changer
The wife's face grew sad.
DO you know, Mr.. Jones, that hus,
band of mine is such a chatterbox
that / do believe he could eat the
whale that swallowed Jonah and never
lose syllable!"-Woman's World.

GUARDING ROYALTY AT NIGHT
Elaborate Precautions That Are Taken
to Insure the Safety Of European
Crowned Heads.

+ Every night the palace at which
King George is sleeping is patrolled
by night watchmen, who pass along
the corridors, throughout the night,
inspecting doors and windows. These
watchmen wear carpet slippers to
deaden the Sounds of their footballs,
and are specially trained to know ex-
actly what to do in case of fire. In
addition to the night patrol. there is
always sentry on duty outside the
chamber in which the king sleeps.
King Alfonso of Spain is guarded at
night by specially selected soldiers,
who take charge of the keys of all the
doors each night. These men pledge
themselves that the doors shall not
be unlocked until daybreak, and no one
is allowed to enter or leave the palace
until the night is over. The guards
sleep outside the royal bedchamber,
so that no one may enter during the
night
King Albert of Belgium is another
carefully-guarded monarch whom no
one may disturb once night has set
il. Soldiers patrol the corridors Of
the kings palace, and his special valet
locks himself in the kings antecham-
Der, which no other person is allowed
to enter. The valet is forbidden to
open either door until morning under
penalty of death.
The car of Russia, the closest
guarded of any monarch, is protected
at night by several companies of SOL
diers, including Englishmen, members
of the secret police, and a body of
Cossacks. The various companies work
independently of one another.
The sultan of Turkey is nightly
watched over by very large number
of soldiers and councillors, who re-
main within the neighborhood of his
bedroom until morning. The sultan
changes his sleeping apartment Of
tener than any other monarch. He
has the choice of two-score bedcham-
bers, and he visits many Of these in
turn throughout the year.
His holiness the pope is guarded by
an attendant who is able to watch the
welfare of his master through spy
hole in the wall of his bedchamber,
so that the pope Is always under OBJ
servation. ..

RATHER A PECULIAR HOBBY
Chief Executive of New York Said to
Have a Marked Fendnesa
for Pigs.

SPigs Is pigs" with Mayor Gaynor
Of New York. They are his favorite
animals, on foot. Besides raising
quite a number himself at his farm
Deep Wells, at st. James, L. l., he al
ways displays an interest in pigs
owned by his neighbors.
He insists on them raising pigs.
The pigless folk of st. James hear
from him (and he uses just as sharp
language in his neighborly converse
ton as he does in writing letters to
rat catchers, etc), and hear from him
often until they annex a few pork
ers" as a side line. Several denizens
of that locale admit they keep few
pigs just to keep peace in the village.
Once a boy did him really good
turn and he desired to show his ap.
probation of the act. OF course the
boy got a pig for his reward. When
the mayor goes for his jaunt through
the countryside he calls on all the
farmers who raise pigs. The others
do not receive a visit from him.
Whenever he hears that pig is i'll,
no matter If 1t is six miles away, he
goes tc see that pig. And he usually
prescribes some home remedy for the
animal. He has been known to walk
ten miles on the hottest day to visit
an indisposed pig.
When the mayor visits his country
place at the end Of each week during
the summer there is always a group
OF villagers on hand to greet him. AS
he goes among them shaking their
hands, instead of acquiring about their
health, he says: "How are your
Digs?"-New York Herald.

BRAIN REMAINS ACTIVE
EXPLANATION OF THE WORKINGS
OF soMNAMsULIsM.
Authenticated Cases Of Remarkable
Performances Are Many-One
Man Made Long Journey In

Various stories are told of acts COM

these bear all ear-marks of having
been done with bot& body and mind
active and awake, the performer, on
his awakening. is unconscious Of their
execution. We herewith give few of
the most interesting and seemingly
Incredible of these authenticated tales:
"A certain member OF foreign uni
versity, having devoted himself during
his waking hours to the composition
of some verses, which, however, he
had not been able to complete, seems
to have been honored with more sue
cess in a visitation from his muse dur

following night he arose in his sleep.

exulting in his success, returned again

"a rope-maker in Germany often fell
asleep while at work, and either cdhtin-
ued his work in the proper way or use
lessly remade cordage already finished.
Sometimes when walking long dis
tances he would similarly be over
taken with sleep and go on safely,
avoiding horses and carriages and tim
Der lying in the road. On one occasion
he fell asleep just as he got on horse
back, yet he went on, rode through q
shallow river, allowed his horse to
drink, drew up his legs to prevent his
feet being wetted, passed through a
crowded market place, and arrived
safely at the house of an acquaintance.
His eyes were closed the whole time,
and he awoke just after reaching the
house."

whenever an incorrect expression fell
from his pen. Though his eyes were
apparently fixed upon the paper when
he wrote, 1t was clear that they exer.
cised no optical functions, for he wrote
just as well when an Opaque substance
was interposed between them and the
sheet of paper. Sometimes an attempt
was made to remove the paper, in the
idea that he would write upon the
desk beneath. But 1t was observed
that he instantly discerned the change
and sought another sheet of paper
as nearly as possible resembling the
former one.
AT other times blank sheet of pa
per was substituted by the bystanders
for the one on which he had been writ
ing, in which case, on reading over, as
1t were, his composition, he was sure
to place the correction suggested by
the perusal at precisely the same in
tervals they would have occurred in
the original sheet of manuscript. This
| young priest, moreover, was an able
musician, and was seen to compose
several pieces of music while in 6

lines of the music paper for the pur
