Famous Old London RrIdue.

London bridge reached the height of its glory in the reign of Queen Eliz- abeth, when the city built a gate and tower three stories high at Southwark end, and the wonder of London. Non- such house, "a huge wooden pile, four stories high, with cupolas and turrets at each corner, brought from Holland, and erected with wooden pegs instead of nuils," reared itself over the seventh and eighth arches, on the north side of the drawbridge. The whole bridge, in those days, was one wonderful street of shops and dwelling houses, with n chapel built or restored with great splendor." Yet, but a hundred years or so later, the scene is changed in- deed. The houses and shops and the chapel are still there, but hundred years old.-Chrlstian Science Monitor.

Nova sootla's Sheep Industry.

The sheep industry In Nova Scotia Is more than 200 years old, records of 1893 telling of 1T3,271 sheep in Ar cadla. The province now ranks fourth among the provinces in the number of sheep, with 200,979, standing second to Quebec in price received for wool. Nova Scotia owes its superior quality to its low shrinkage. as compared with wool from other parts of Canadn. The climate on the mainland demands shel- ter for sheep during the winter months. though on certain islands along the south shore they are out the year around and feed on the sea kelp washed up on the shore. These are the wild sheep descended from those brought In by early settlers. Enter prising farmers on the south shore, seeing that they fed of the kelp In winter, eorralled them on nearby is- lands.

The BalaIaIka.

The balalaika Is not an entirely un- known instrument in England. The ln- terest taken in all that pertains to Russia, especially in all that relates to art, has enabled this variation of the ancient Persian tambour to find welcome in London. It had season of great success in the later ninetIes, after its revival in Russia. For cen. turies it had been neglected, but the great Russian musician, Andreev. saw in 1t the possibilities of expressing the national music of his country and formed the first Balalalka orchestra, which played before Nicholas the Sec ond in 1898, and became the forerun- ner of the popularity of the lnstru- ment not only in Russia, but in other countries where 1t was played.

BIoodieas Combat Between Sons Of MI. ksdo, With ths Throne as Prize
 S<r @a Victor.

The sporun8 Japanese gentleman knows all the fine points about wres- ding. HE enthusiasms on this sub ject are Informed enthuslasms, and he inherits them from long line of an. cestors, says Julian Street In Mo Cures. When the Greeks and IeCInans wrestled, the Japanese were WreStiing too. Tn the Ninth century the JESSnese throne was wrestled for A mi6ado died and left two sons, and these, instead of going to war with each other, left their claims to be settled by a wrestling match.
 The sport Is. furthermore. asso- ciated in a manner more or less d. aphanous with Shintolsm. Certain Shlnto traditions are connected with 1t, and the matches used to he held on the grounds of Shinto temples.
 The attitude of the sporting Jap anese gentleman toward wrestlers re- sembles that of Che sporting American or Englishman toward pugillsts and jockeys. It Is chic to know them. but not as equals. One Is very genial with them and at lhe same time a lt- tie patroniZlng, whereas they are ex- pected to assume slightly deferen- tial manner. Perhaps the attitude of the Japanese sporting gentleman to- ward his favorite wrestlers Is rather more like that of the Spanish sport ing gentleman toward bullhghters. for in both countries 1t Is customary for the wealthy patron to give expensive presents to the hero. But whereas in Spain handsome iewelry Is sometimes thrown to the bull-fghters in the ring, 1t is the custom in Japan for the fan to throw his hat, coat, pocketbook, cigarette case or what not to the pop ular idol, who later sends the trophy back to the owner, receiving in ex- change U valuable gift-frequently a gift of money.

 "Oh. have a very good time, al- ways hiding when I've made a mistake, and always appearing when I haven't. That's the way I do.
 "They don't like me much around here, and really like myself better than anyone likes me. But tfet makes no difference.
 "I'm happy so long as I can say I told you so' That is my joy in life"
 Strange" said the boy.
 "Very curious" said the girl.
 "well, it doesn't seem curious to me-" said the young lady. "I'm not beautiful, nor am I ugly. I'm neither one thing or another. I'm a good deal of a nuisance, but I don't like to change my ways"

Value of IndlNidualitY.

There is something in you that makes you little different from every body else, something that sets you apart. and differentiates you, and that something is one of your most valua- ble possessions. Be sure that In your ambition to be like some one you ad- mire, you do not put imitation above self-develOpment, and obscure that priceless treasure, your individuality. Girls Companion.

INVOKED AID OF ST. WTUS
In the Past Many Have Had Implicit Faith In the Powers of An
 cient Holy Man.

For some reason a chapel was ded- Icated to that holy man of the Fourth century who was martyred under the Emperor Dlocletian-St. Vitus-whose festival Is celebrated on June 1b. We are told that to this chapel came an nualIy many women who labored un- der nervous or hysterfc infliction im- polling them to violent motion. This ailment came to be known as St. Vitus' dance, and perhaps the term was grad ually extended to other affiictions ln- volving involuntary muscular motion. Scientifically this disease Is known as chorea. Another explanation is that In certain places fin Germany during the Seventeenth century Is was be- lieved good health could be obtained for year by dancing before the saints image on his festival day, and that 1t was In this way the original St. Vitus' tiu'.ce was confounded with the dis ease. The aid of this saint is also in- voked against sudden death, hydropho- bia, and so on.-ChIcago Journal.

There are known only five gem-opal regions in the entire world. For 500 or 600 years, a deposit in a remote section of northern Hungary has been mined by local peasants. The removal of opals from this region ceased about 20 years ago. For the most part, stones from northern Hungary are milky white.
