How Famous Hymn Was Written.

AS Tennyson's nurse was sitting one
day at his bedside, sharing to a de-
gree the general anxiety about the
patient, she said to him suddenly:
You have written a great many
poems, sir, but l have never heard
anybody say that there is a hymn
among them all. I wish, sir, you
would write hymn while you are ly-
ing on your sick bed. 1t might help
and comfort many poor sufferer"
The next morning, when the nurse
had taken her quiet place at the bed
side, the poet handed her a scrap of
paper saying: Here is the hymn you
wished me to write"
She took it from his hands with eX-
rressions of grateful thanks. 1t
proved to be Crossing the Bar the
poem that was sung in Westminster
abbey at Tennyson's funeral, and
which has touched SO many hearts.

Burns, Wyo-"The trouble began on
my baby when she was about four

at first and it grew larger and larger
all the time on the back OF her head.
1t looked scabby and it itched and
burned and she began to scratch 1T
and scratched until it would bleed.
Sometimes she could not sleep and
felt pretty cross.
"The trouble lasted till she was a
year old and l saw an advertisement
of Cuticura Soap and Ointment, so
sent for some. First I washed the
sore part with the Cuticura Soap and
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
and left it on for a while, then
washed it again with the Cuticura

NAVY TIP LIMIT SOC. A DAY
Official Recognition Given to That
Sum by Controller

Washington, Sept. l7.-If naval Off
GERS find it necessary to tip more
than 80 cents day they must bear
the expense themselves, even though
they are travelling on government
business.
This rule was emphasized today by
George f. Downey, the Controller Of
the Treasury, who ruled that William
W. Miller, second class electrical ex-
pert for the navy al Newport News,
must stand the loss of 35 cents paid
to the tseward on a boat running
from Newport News TO Lewes, Del
Tips at the rate of 80 cents a day to
walters were allowed, but Controller
Downey could not sc any justification
for tipping the steward.
The auditor OF the Navy Depart
ment disalolwed all tips attached to
Miller's expense account, but Control
er Downey held that a precedent had
been established in previous case,
so that the 30 cents a day-10 cents
a meal-would be allowed.
