ening to withhold a legacy in the event
the beneficiary joins specified
church. Judge Frank B. Whiting, in
constituting the will of Mrs. Ann I. Nc
CURE, who died in Winchester in 1879,
held the above view in a case sub
mItted to him in the corporation court
in that city few days ago.
The opinion was rendered in the
suit OF Hunter H. Mcclure, trustee
under the will Of Miss Annie Mcclure,
a daughter of Mrs. Ann E. Mcclure.
against the heirs of Miss Annie Nc
CURE.
The testator devised a house and
lot in Winchester jointly TO her two
daughters, Miss Celtic MCGUIRE and
Miss Annie Mcclure, but stipulated
that il Miss Annie MCGUIRE should
"join the Romish church" she should
forfeit her one-half interest in the
property. II is understood that Miss
Mcclure did unite with the Catholic
church, and the present suit was
brought to determine il her interest in
the property had been forfeited.
Under the decree of Judge Whiting,
just rendered, he held that the stipu-
lation contained in Mrs. McGuire's will,
to the effect that if her daughter Miss
Annie Mcclure should "join the Rom
ish church" then her interest in the
property should be forfeited, was
against public policy and is void and
of no effect under the laws of Vir-
ginia, and that she miss Annie Nc

house and lot devised to her by her
mother.

More About the BoOnsboro Cave.

Last Monday the caverns recently
discovered near Boonsboro on the
farm OF e. E. Hutzell, Of Hagerstown.
wore again explored. The entrance,
which had been closed. was opened,
and surveyors from ]. B. Ferguson &
Co. and number OF individuals went
through portions OF the caverns. The
surveyors made some measurements
while in the caverns and will make a
report later to Mr.. Hutzell. An in
terested explorer was David Wyand, OF
Keeydsville, who despite his four score
and ten years made a trip to the
cave and spent some time going
through portions OF it.
Samples Of stalactite and staIagmite
formations were found and brought
out. These specimens are OF rare
beauty, some of them being pure
white. Visitors to the caverns tell of
some beautiful sights discovered, in
Guiding a formation Of white rock re-
semblng lot Of blankets. At an
other place waterfall is represented
and at another a pipe organ. One of
the remarkable features about the
caverns is the dryness. There is no
mud and no water dripping from the
formation Of rock which form the CELL
ing.
The extent of the caverns is still
unknown. There are many openings
yet unexplored which may lead into
caverns covering miles. The portion
already explored covers a large dis
lance.
The opening was again closed Mon
day evening by Mr.. Hutzell. and will
remain closed until the arrival of ge-
ologist, who will make a scientific ex-
ploration and report.

Catarrh Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
Their is only one way to cure catarrhal
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have
a rumblng sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever
Many cases Of deafness are caused by
catarrh, which is an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on
the mucous surfaces Of the system.

wax-Farming In China

One OF the occupations Of China
which is little known to the outside
world is wax-farming. A tiny insect
is cultivated with great skill by the
Chinese Of a certain district, because
of the fine white wax which il produces.
The Scientific American describes the
work Of those wax-farmers.
This little insect, which is hardly
yet known to Western science, has
many peculiarities, on. Of which is that
for the successful production OF wax.
two stages Of its life must be passed
in very different regions. The earlier
stage, in which the females develop
until almost ready to deposit their
eggs, is in the CHEN Chang Valley in
the Western part OF China, where
grows a tree, at an altitude Of Ave
thousand feet, on which the insect
passes that stage of its existence. In
May IL is time to remove the colonies
OF wax-makers to the lower altitude
of Szechwan province, where is found
another tree, feeding upon which the
insect makes it's wax.
This removal is one OF the most
picturesque features OF the industry.
Thousands OF porters are employed in
II. The colonies OF insects removed
from the trees are wrapped in leaves
OF the wood-oil tree. Packed careful
ly in baskets, they are slung from the
shoulders Of the porters, who must
bear them from two to four hundred
miles. The way lies over the rocky
paths and heights OF the Szechwan
mountains, through several cities, and
ends at the farms where the masters
OF the bearers await them All the
journey must be made at night, as the
suns heat would develop the insects
too fast.
At that time of year it is the custom
OF the cities along the way to leave
their gates open all night in order that
the progress Of the bearers may not
be interrupted. With the baskets sus-
pended from their shoulders, the por-
tiers run in weird procession at their
top speed from dark till daylight.
Clad almost invariably in r; i-proof
straw, they carry picturesque nterns,
which swing as they run, tii9 ing the
fantastic shadows OF thsir dies all
round.
At daybreak the msn md some
dense shade for their burGln :, prepare
their meals and 90 to slec7. At night
fall they arc under way agein.
At the farms where the wax Is to be
formed the leaves containing insects are
tied to the limbs Of trees, where the
heat OF the sun develops them. Crawl
ing out, the males proceed to form
cocoons, and these are the source OF the
wax. In a short time the entire trees
are covered with the shining white, so
that, but for the heat, one would be-
lieve they were hidden in frost. This
white covering Is sometimes a quarter
OF an inch thick over most OF a tree.
II is scraped on and refined, and from
1t are made candles for the household,
objects for the temples, and many
other things, and an annual tribute
OF the best quality is sent to the en-
press at Picking.

In Poland hunger is not confined prin-
cipally to the cities, as is the case in Aus
tria and Hungary, but extends into the
towns and villages and even the coun-
try districts. where the ebb and flow
of war has prevented all production for
the past five years. Thousands of chill
dren are trying to exist on a coarse
bread made OF oats and the bark OF
certain trees, on grass soup and on wild
roots and weed seed
Under nourished, hungry children in
Czecho- Slovakia approach in numbers
those of Poland. Estimates by officials
of the American relief administration
of the number in immediate need of re-
lief place the figure at 100000. This is
about 40 per cent of the Guild popula-
ton.
Two out of every three babies born ir
Czecho- Slovakia in recent months have
died as the direct result OF underfeed
ing. MIX can not be obtained anywhere.
Men and women alike have barely existed
on a starvation diet. Few mothers them
selves are sufficiently nourished to he
able to nurse their babies, and in hun
dreds and hundreds of cases the babies
die in their mothers arms.
The children of the newly born Baltic
states of Esthona, Letvia and Lithu-
ania are having an even harder fight for
life than these struggling governments
Children in Esthonia who are right down
at the starvation line, number some
