Feared Burial Alive,

To be buried alive was the greatest
fear of a doctor who died recently at
kidderminster, England. 1t was found
that he had instructed his trustees
that his remains should be cremated
five days after his death. but unless he
died of some disease which necessi-
tated it, his body should not be in
closed in a coffin during this period.
and if so, he desired the trustees to
personally ascertain that life was ex-
tinct, my chief dread being lest by
accident | may be cremated or other
wise disposed of while | am still
alive" and he directed his trustees to
carry out his wishes concerning his
cremation and burial as contained in a
sealed letter given TO them respec-
lively in his lifetime

Soldiers Pay Withheld.

In the prolonged campaigns of for
mer times British soldiers often re-
ceived no pay for years, and con-
sidered themselves lucky if they then
obtained a small part of what was due
them. In one of his dispatches, May
2L 1903. Marlborough complains of the
great hardships suffered by a certain
regiment, to whom S27,50O was due.
and pointed out that il would much
contribute to the service if some part
Of it were paid TO enable the colonel
the better 20 clothe his regiment and
the officers to support themselves in

Incident. On a branch circuit there
was some peculiar trouble. Fuses would

signs Of trouble. first on one side and
then on the other, investigation was
made. Covers were removed from. the

Perhaps you have wondered what
has become of all the old bicycles. Not
so long ago everybody had one-fa-
ther, mother. children and aunts from
the country. Aud then, in the night.
motor cars got cheaper and all the
bicycles disappeared. Like the Palm
Beach suits they are all here in Flor
Ida. There are bicycles everywhere,
on the fiat, hard, beautiful roads. on
the curbstones. leaning against the
piazzas, in the streets. II the mo-
tor car has swept them from the north
ern streets, 1t has not done that here.
Men, women and children on bicycles
whirl about the streets, tingling their
little bells and the mOtOr-car drivers
look out for them. Just beyond the
veranda at Palm Beach were hundreds
Of bicycles waiting to be hired. Out
on the shaded roads were other hum
dreds bearing their gayly attired bur-
dens.
In the lobby, where was making my
way to the desk. were dozens of wom-
en- dressed for wheeling.-Margaret

After her death it was to go to Am
herst. How Doctor Crane saved the
life Of Empress Eugenie from Paris

of the empress from Paris to Deau-

He arranged passage on Lord Bur-

MAKING More Wood Flour.

One Of the new Industries increased
by the European war is the manufac-
ture of wood -four in the United
States. Last month over 10000 tons
valued at $500 900 was manufactured
chiefly in small mills which are scat
tered over the country from Maine
to California. The flour is used In
the manufacture of linoleum as
substitute for the cork imported from
Spain before the war, and also enters
largely into the composition Of some
of the heavier and handsomer wall
papers. Wood flour Is made from
sawdust and other waste lumber
which until a few years ago was
burned at most American sawmills.
