The Grand Duchess Sergius in becom- • ing abbess of a convent has followed the example set by several members of the Austrian Royal family. The Archduch- ess Elizabeth, the. only child of the Crown Prince Rudolph, was up to the time of her marriage abbess of the eon - vent of St. Theresa at Prague. This post is of quasi episcopal dignity, for the holder, when the Emperor of Austria is crowned King of Bohemia, is deputed to crown the Empress. The archduchess used to appear at all state functions in her conventional garb and carrying a pastoral staff. With a mitre perched on her curly head the seventeen -year-old ab- bess made a picturesque figure,•—London Chronicle. Red, Weak, Weary, Watery Eyes. Relieved By Murine Eye Remedy.

May Day in London was the occasion of a labor demonstration in Hyde Park which was more imposing than usual. About eight thousand persons marched from the Embankment with bands and banners, and some two thousand children were brought in brakes by the Socialist Sunday School Union. _Messrs. Herbert Burrows, Ben Tillett and Victor Grayson were the chief speakers. The resolution carried simultaneoushly at all the plat- forms demanded "free maintenance of all children in the national schools, the organization of unemployed labor on useful and productive work, an eight hour working day, such amendment of the old age pension act as will secure adequate pensions for the aged and in- capable, universal adult suffrage, pay- ment of members and eeletion expenses, and proportional representation." The inclusion of proportional representation in a resolution of this kind is very in- teresting and marks the rapid progress which the idea of this most desirable re- form is making.—The Spectator. • A PIANO FOR 50 CENTS, A EEK Thi:: is a. golden opportunity for any- one to own an instrument.

A Relic of Prehistoric Rays --Now .Efrain Facts, Sir Victor Horsley gave an explana- tion of a curious habit the other night when delivering the Cavendish lecture before the West London Medico -Chir- urgical Society. Out habit of swing- ing the arms when walking—which, Sir Victor stated, is quite unnecessary— was a relic of the days when we walk- ed on all fours. Then we had to use our arms as well as our legs. Although their use serves no purpose when walk- ing upright, we still keep on moving all four limbs alternately in progres- sion. Sir Victor set forth some new facts concerning the functions of the cerebel- lum, the mysterious and little under- stood hind part of the brain. Primarily, the cerebellum must be regarded, said the lecturer, as a sensory organ which has an important part in the cermet per- formance of many of our "automatic" actions. Standing, walking and run- ning are good examples of such ac- tions, which cannot be accurately car- ried out without normal, well-balanc- ed cerebellum. New-born animals, the lecturer continued, cannot stand; they sprawl, and before they can stand, walk, or run they must ,acquire this power. For the convenience of Cie this ability to stand must be secured with- out the animal having consciously to think what he is doing. The fully de- veloped cerebellum supplies this power unconsciously. In proof of this Sir Vic- tor pointed out that the cerebellum of a full-grown cat showed fully developed cells and fibres, whereas in the newborn kitten's brain the cerebellar portion is not yet organized into active nerve tis- sues. .

Cooper, Vicar of Filey, has juet started on another of those lengthy tramps which have justly earned for hint' the sobriquet. of "The Walking Parson." This year he is bound for Lourdes, and, with the exception of the cross Channel, he proposes to do the whole journey of five hundred miles on foot. Among other long tramps aeoomplished by Mr. Cooper are his walks from Ham- burg to Budapest and from Hamburg to Venice., Of all his wandering yarns "The Walking Parson" associates the Sur- rey Hills with the most amusing. He was walking briskly along when he was accosted by a weary wayfarer. "Sixpence is all I want," whined the stranger: "that small sum stands be- tween me and starvation." "If," said Mr. Cooper, who among other things is a total abstainer, "I give you six- pence, what ,assurance have I that you will not get intoxicated?" "Sir," exclaimed the other, "do I look like a person who could get intoxicated— on ntoxicatedon sixpence?'' -From' M. A. P. When.

Found in Heart of Maple, Where it Had Been for 30 Years:. A pint bottle filled with rare old whiskey, the age of which is un- certain, has been found here, j.m- beded solidly in the heart of a maple tree almost four feet in • diameter. President Graham of the Park Board concluded that there were too many trees in Bayliss Park, a breath- ing spot in the centre of the city, so he concluded to cut out a number of the maples that were .planted more than fifty years ago, when Council 'Bluffs was first given a place upon the Iowa neap, One particular tree that was in the eouree of a new path that was pro- poeed was marked for the sacrifice. The choppers felled this tree, find- ing it solid from circumference to centre. Sawing the trunk into four foot lengths, eight feet from the butt, the saw just missed a. long necked black bottle. Observing it the chop- pers carefully hewed away the wood, when to their surprise, wee, brought forth, tightly corked, a bottle of one pint capacity, filled with liquor. The cork was removed and the odor of liquor became apparent. It was sampled oy experts who pronounced it whiskey of a most superior quality. Haw the bottle of whiskey got into the centre of the hugh maple tree is a mystery that even titre oldest settler is unable to solve. At no place about it was there any cavity and count- ing things of wood from the place where erre bottle was lodged, each one of which represents a year's growth of the tree, it must have been there thirty years. Besides this, old set- tlers state that the bottle is of the type in use from fifty to sixty years ago. The bottle and contents have been placed in the public library as a curio. --Council Bluffs correspon- dence Sioux City Journal. 4..• A Little Wisdom Here and There. You can turn a crank down, but he always turns up. A woman is extolled for her virtues, and adored for her 'weaknesses. While mere talent pauses outside the thresholcr, genius enters in and makes a suecessful bluff. Half the world doesn't know what ex- cuse the other half has for living. The man who draws on his imagina- tion should not overlook to pin "no pro - est" to his draft. The world expects a man to make a fool of himself over a woman, but it never forgives a woman who makes a 'fool of herself over a man. To know thyself is wisdom; to know how not to impart that knowledge to otlsers—that's cleverness. Marry for money, and you wish you had married 'for love; marry for love, and you wish you had married for money. You never really know a woman un- til after you Havemarried her, and then the knowledge isn't of much use to you. True consistency is a jewel; and the most charming women display the least jewelry. Love in a cottage is romantic, but no mere woman objects to- rose-colored silk curtains at the windows. You can't tell a man's character by his clothes, but you can often judge a woman's lack of it by hers.
