Incidents and Views of the furbnr --King Unrecognized Eatering k Delhi, TAKEN HONE ON A MATTRESS. The°official story of the royal visit to India and the. ceremonies of the Durbar, by the Hon. John Fortes- cue,, has just been, published in London. The author is a frank oritio, and some of his criticisms are likely to cause considerable comment. "Por the first time," lie says, "the three eke flags borne by a royalyacht-ad- miralty .flag at the fore; Royal Standard at the main, and the Union Jack of an' Admiral of the fleet at. elle mizzen—were seen east' of the Mediterranean ; and it seem- ed a pity that, there was but one escorting cruiser to do.. honor to .the occa'ion " "Early in the voyage," the chron- ieler states, "the King expressed his desire, though he did not make it his command, that such members of the suite and their servants as re_ quired it should be re -vaccinated. To eo wise a measure there were no conscientious objectors." Sea -sick Travellers. The Medina encountered gale after rounding Ushant, and the vessel pitched badly. "Considering that most of the people in her were old travellers or seafaring men, the amount of sea- sickness was.astonishing. Officers, men, and passengers all Buffered alike, the men perhaps most se- verely of all.' . . The truth is that the British sailor of these days so rarely leaves home waters that he has little experience of long heavy seas." Queen Withstood Heat. Referring to a wireless greeting •froan Delhi to the King the writer says :- ' "If all wireless telegrams • re- ceived during the voyage had been of the like innocent tenor, the King would have.enjoyed more repose in the course of it than he did." During the visit to Bombay their Majesties gave•a •State dinner on. board the Medina. Though the din- ner as held on deck, the -heat was such as to make full dress European uniform very trying. to wear. None the less the Queen, who was wear- _inget white dress embroidered with gold, never looked better than on that 000asion, and the guests soon discovered that the • temperature made no ,difference to the welcome accorded to them by their Royal hosts." Concerning the state entry into - Delhi the official historian says :— "The whole body of the specta- tors, Europeans only excepted, was silent after the Oriental fashion; but the truth must be told outright that the King -Emperor was not re- cognized as he passed. He alone wore the uniform of a:. Field-Mar- ahal, but this does not to a "native eye differ materially from that of a general or staff officer. '. . His Majesty' s equerries could hear the spectators -murmuring as they passed that the King was not there.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills snake just the new, pure blood needed to feed the sciatica nerve and drive out the racking' pain. It has been proved. over and over again that they can do this and we offer now the follow- ing additional piece .of evidence. Mr. E. H. Pastorious, Harrow, One., says: "Some years ago I was terribly afflicted with sciatica, starting just in my hip and then ex- tending through the legto the foot. At the time I was attacked I was away from home and had to be brought home on a mattress in a spring waggon, and the agony of the trip was almost more than I could endure. Reaching home I was not able to sit up and remain- ed' in bed for six, wocke. The doc- tor did not help me and I tried a number of medicines recommended by neighbors. I paid $5.00 a bottle for one preparation, but .it was no better than the rest, and I began to think there was' no cure for me. 4Vhile'suffering this untold misery man is a worthy successor to the Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were re- illustrious humorists; who preceded commended and my wife got me 5, h. in theeditorial chair. .ernrKrtrl��4�+el+ice .

L Sentry's Orders. • An amusing example of discipline came under the historian' notice at Delhi. "The pavilion of the polo ground wasreserved for such spectators only as had been provided with a ticket. The Adjutant -General of the Army t•' . was stopped by the sentry and required to produce his tidket. By accident or• mishap he had tone, and was proceeding to explain when the sentry cut him lehort with: 'Beg pardon, sir, but my orders are to admite no one without a ticket,' to which unan swerable statement the Adjutant - General, being responsible for the r discipline o4 the army, cheerfully bowed his head and fetched; a wide compass to seek� .legitireate en- trance. elsewhere.

E Day by day, as Mrs. Woth't; household and kitchen furniture and g1•oeeries slowly disappeared, she saw that the moment approeoh. ed when a final stand must be made. One morning, when Jimmy, son of the borrower, appeared at the back door with the statement, "Ma wants the wash -boiler," Mrs. Worth,determined to wet. "You tell yeur ala that when she brings back what she has already borrowed, I will lend her the boil- er In a •little while Jimmy reappear- ed, "Ma wants to know what she has borrowed." "There is a quart of flour," be- gan Mrs, Worth, "a peck of pota- toes, a cup of sugar, a can of cof- fee, a half -pound of lard, some on- ions, and butter and spices.; the screw -driver, the hatchet, a pair of scissors'"—she paused, recollect- ing, --"three spools of thread, a pa- per of needles, and--" But Jimmy was gone. Presently he rapped on the back door again. "Ma says for you 1» write 'em down.. I' forgot some of 'em." Mrs. Worth sat downwith pencil and patiently made an alphabetical list of all the articles she could re- member. Jimmy took the list and disap- peared,' A half-hour later he once more appeared at the back door, and announced: "Ma says if you'll lend her the wail -boiler to carry them in, she'll bring 'em home," Or Late, for That Matter. "What's your opinion of the high price of coal this year ?" "Well, for one thing, it's liable to ` prevent my wife doing her Christmas shopping early," Trial is Inexpensive.—To those who suffer from dyspepsia, indiges- tion, rheumatism or any ailment arising: from derangement of the di- gestive system, a trial of. Parme- lee's Vegetable Pills isrecommend- ed, should the sufferer be unac- quainted with them. The trial will be inexpensive and the result will be another customer . for this ex- cellent medicine. So effective is their action that many cures can certainly be traced to their use where other pills have proved in- effective. While the snail has lungs, heart. and a general circulation and is in everyrespect an air -breathing crea- ture, it can nevertheless exist inde- finitely without inhaling the least breath of air, the element that is usually considered the essential in existence in all creatures supplied with lungs. "To all; organized creatures," said Leppert, 'the removal of oxy- gen, water, nourishment and heat causes death to ensue." When that statement was made Leppert did not appear to consider the snail as one among the great host of "or- ganized beings, for experiments by Spallanzani have proved that any. or all the usual life conditions can be removed in the case of the snail without • terminating its existence or in any way impairing its func- tions. The common snail retreats into his shell on the approach of frosty weather and the opening g or mouth of its shell is hermetically sealed by a secretion which is of a silky tex- ture •and absolutely impervious to air and water. 'In this condition it is plain that it is, deprived of three of the four elements of life mention- ed above—air, water and nourish- ment. The fall of one inch of rain is equivalent to one hundred tons of water per acreof land. Minard's Liniment Cures Golds, &o, These Pills Curs Rheumatism. — To the many who, suffer from rheu- matism atrial of Parmelee's Vege- table Pills is recommended. They. have a pronounced action upon the liver and kidneys and by regulat- ing the action of these organs act as an alternative in preventing the admixture of uric acid and blood that causes this painful disorder. They must be taken according to directions and used steadily and they will speedily give evidence of their beneficial effects. Displacement. "Do .you think the automobile will displace the horse?" "No," replied the reckless driv- er. "We can't even get the pedes- trians off the roads." Do not let a cold settle on your lungs.

Nothing improves a child's voice as much as 'singing easily, quietly and sweetly. An imperfect ear can. be .trained by persistent effort, and 'even if the child's singing voice is not perfect, the benefit of its trying to vocalize pleasantly will be felt. in the speaking voice. Neither chil- dren nor adults should sing higher or lower than nature intended them to. When aboy's or girl's voice is changing in pitch they should be ad- vised not to sing. The voice should be used sparingly when one is suf- fering from a cold in the head, sore throat, or weakness after illness. In such cases muscular action has to make up for lack of lung power and energy. The result is a thick- ening of the v Deal -cords anti an added huskiness and harshness which may not pass away. eeeeeeeeeeeee Not Merely a Game: Too many view matrimony as a game when they ought to consider it their life work.
