This thrifty little town Was truly a surprise to lis and we found it fully equal to any we have previously given mention in this paper. Of course it boasts of its churches, schools and lodges, and indeed has occasion for pride. Its business men are as a unit and while there is a pleasing absence of cut-throat competition, prices are amazingly low along all business lines. This necessarily invites patronage for miles about and as a result the town is adVHncmg in a substantial manner. With pleasure do we point to these

8lz Original lilnai for a Charily or Church AITalr. Persons who contemplate giving a bazaar will find a few pointers in the following account of a Christmas charity bazaar given in an eastern city re-1 cently. The principal stall repre-1 sented an Adirondack log cabin decorated with rifles and fishing rods, skins and furs. The girls who presided over this wild domain wore picturesque green and brown .shooting costumes, with soft, felt hats, high leather lnoots and the rest of the becoming paraphernalia. The oddest of all the stalls was a postotlice nianagod by smart French gendarmes and postillions in red, blue and gray costumes. This was a most useful institution, where parcels were kept for purchasers or sent to their homers— for a consideration. An "international stall" was arranged as a ship or barge, pennons of all countries hanging from the mast and rigging, the American flag being consipcuous, of course. Here the assistants wore heraldic costumes simulating gold or silver armor, draped with flags of different countries and having wreaths of oak leaves, laurels and "national flowers"—lilies, daisies, goldenrod. shamrocks, thistles, roses, etc.—in

Th« Duke W»M Aliirmeil.
That stately building. Sion house, which shows so impressively over a dull reach of the Thames, above Brentford, with the lion of the Percys stretching himself on the topmost gable, came to the Percy family,as everybody knows, when Henry VIII "dissolved" the monasteries and swallowed the greater part of the mixture, says Household Words. There was some good sediment left, however—even better than the "scum" at Camacho's wedding—to be distributed among the king's faithful servants, and old Sion nunnery, with its pastures and gardens, was given to the Earl of Northumberland to serve him as a kind of summer house. The sisters who had formerly dwelt there emigrated en masse and still keeping together as a religious body, eventually founded a new Sion—not so stately as the old— in the city of Lisbon. Early in the present century the reigning duke of Northumberland, being on his travels, looked in upon the humble sisterhood and was cordiaHy received by the mother superior, who showed him certain historic relics, among which were the keys of the old home on the Thames, which keys the sisters had taken with them in their flight "And," said the worthy prioress, "we still cherish the hope of one day returning to our former home." "But, madam." exclaimed the duke, a little bit alarmed at the notion, "since you left we have changed all the locks."
©MMron's Parties.
A word of warning on the subject may not be amiss at this season. It is impossible not to recognize that the -so-called "pleasure" of a children's party involves a very large measure of excitement both before and after the •event, so that, apart from the exposure ito the chances of "chill," and improper food and drink on the occasion, there iis an amount of wear and tear and •waste attending these parties which ought to be estimated, and the estimate can scarcely be a low one. It may seem ungracious to strive to put a iHmit.on the pleasures of the young, but It must not be forgotten that early youth Is the period of growth and development, and ihat anything and everything that causes special waste of organized material without a compensatory stimulus io nutrition ought to be avoided. Turning from the physical dangers to the mental and nerve injuries inflicted upon the growing organism, these are certainly not to be disregarded. Excitement rages in the little orain from the moment the invitation has been received until after the evening. Sleep is disturbed by

NOVEL STALLS FOR BAZAARS. WORRY AFFECTS THE MIND.!' MILTON'S MULBERRY TBBB
It Destroy* Certain 11 rain Cell* by Diminishing Their Vitality.
Modern sconce lias brought to light nothing more curiously interesting than the fact that worry can kill. More remarkable still, it has been able to determine, from recent discoveries, just how worry does kill. It Is bellewd by many scientists who have followed most carefully the growth of the science of brain diseases that scores of deaths set down to other causes are due to worry, and that alone. The theory Is a simple one—so simple that anny one can readily understand it. Briefly put, it amounts to this: Worry I injures beyond repair certain cells of the brain, and the brain, being the nutritive center of the body, the other organs become gradually injured, and I when some disease of these organs, or a combination of them, arises, death

each girl was dressed to represent a flower. At the oriental booth a throng of veiled and richly-clad houris sold embroideries, rugs, copperwork, Turkish sweetmeats and other eastern treasures, while a troop- of pretty, fairhaired girls, dressed as peasants and with wreaths of scarlet poppies in their hair, sold "Russian" furs, enameled metal and books by Tolstoi, Sienkiewicz and other Russian and Polish authors. The Holland stall was in charge of girls dressed to suggest delft china and wearing the curious Dutch peasant caps. They dispensed ail kinds of gingerbreads, sweets and eatables. The Japanese stall was full of slender brunettes in bright-tinted kimonos, and at an Italian stall with peasant saleswomen cheese and wine, frutt and plaster casts—strange mixture—were sold. j.
finally ensues. Thus does worry kill. Insidiously, like many other diseases,
1
it creeps upon the brain in the form
1
of a single, constant, never-lost Idea, and, as the dropping water over a period of years will wear a groove in a stone, so does worry gradually, 1mperceptibly, but no less surely destroy the brain cells that lead all the rest— that are, so to speak, the commanding officers of mental power, health and motion. Worry, to make the theory still stronger, Is an irritant at certain points, which produces little harm if it comes at intervals or irregularly. Occasional worrying of the system the brain can cope with, but the reiteration of one idea of a disquieting sort the cells of the brain are not proof against. It is as if the skull were laid bare and the surface of the brain struck lightly with a hammer every few seconds with mechanical precision, with never a sign of a let-up or the failure of a stroke. Just in this way does the annoying idea, the maddening thought that, will not be done away with, strike or fall upon certain nerve cells, never ceasing, and week by week diminishing the vitality of these delicate organisms, so minute that they can only be seen under the microscope.
HOW TO PREVENT DREAMS.
Simple Remedy Advanced by a Physlclan to Insure Wholesome Sleep. From the Washington Star: "After a series s! experiments on myself and others," ventured an experienced phyBician, "I am convinced that many annoying dreams, which in many instances rob sleep of much of its recreation and benefit, can be prevented if persons will take the trouble to do so. There uie dreams which are produced by an overloaded, stomach and indigestion. These can be prevented by not overloading the stomach and taking care, especially in the evening, to not eat that which experience has demonstrated is not easily digested. A fairly filled stomach, however, is less conducive to dreams than an absolutely empty one. I think I can safely jay that if those persons who are troubled much with extra dreaming will wear extra long sleeves in their nightgowns they will find a remedy thereby. What is even better than long sleeves is '.o put a rubber cord in the hem of the sleeve, so that they will not slip up on the arm. The rubber cord should not be tight enough to interfere with the circulation of the blood In the arms, but tight enough to keep the ends of the sleeves well down on the wrists. To the bachelors and others who cannot have their sleeves properly arranged the same euect can be secured by wearing a wrislet on the wrist or, better yet, to pull a sock over the hands and pin the leg of it to the sleeves of the nightgown. In addition to preventing dreams this simple arrangement will be found extremely comfortable during the cold nights of the next qouple of months. A little in quiry will convince anyone that those whose wrists and forearms are uncovered are annoyed most by dreams.
The sock used aB a kind of an extended glove will effectually stop them, but It must be attached to the sleeve of the nightgown, otherwise the sleeve will work up the arm and the desired effect lost My remedy, in brief, is to keep the hand, wrist and forearm well covered."' W

It Is Now Vary Much Decayed anil Hat Had to lie Propped Up. In the gardens of Christs college, Cambridge, stands a venerable mulberry tree which, tradition says, was planted by Milton during the time when he was a student at the university, says Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper. This would be between the years 1624 and 1632, for the following copy from the Latin of his entry of admission accurately fixes the former date, and his admission to the degree of M. A., to which lie proceeded in the latter year, ended his intimate connection with the university: "John Milton, native of London, son of John Milton, was initiated in the elements of letters under Mr. Gill, master of St. Paul's school was adn_'i.:ed a lesser pensioner Feb. 12, 1624. under Mr. Chappell, and paid entrance fee 10s." He was then 16 years and 2 months old. The tree so intimately associated with his name is now much decayed, but in order to preserve it as much as possible from the ravages of time many of the branches have been covered with sheetlead, and are further supported by stout wooden props, while the trunk has been buried in a mound of earth.
The luxurianee of the foliage and the crop of fruit which it annually bears are proof of its vitality, but to insure against accidents and perpetuate the tree an off-shoot has been planted close by. In the event of a bough breaking and falling it 1B divided with even justice among the fellows of the college, and many pieces are thus preserved as mementos of the poet. It was during his residence at Cambridge that he composed his ode, "On the Morning of Christ's Nativity." "Lycidas," too, is intimately connected with Milton's life at the university, since it was written in memory of Edward King, his college friend and contemporary, with whom he doubtless shared the same rooms. In those dayp students did not, as now, occupy separate apartments, as witness the original statutes of the college: "In which chambers our wish is that the fellows sleep two and two, but the scholars four and four "in consequence of which a much closer intimacy was formed among them than Is now possible. Dr. Johnson relates that*Milton was Hogged at Cambridge,but the fact Is doubtful, though there Is reason to suppose that he had differences with the authorities in the earlier part of his college career, since he was transferred from the original tutor. This tree is still pointed out to visitors, and was, until recent years, especially marked by a bough of mistletoe growing upon it.
SIGHT SEEING IN DELHI
Some of the Wonder* of the Indian City Described by a Visitor. You may like to have an account of the day I spent at Delhi. I went down on Sunday by the morning train, arriving about a quarter to 11, and had a hard day's sight-seeing that would have done credit to a yankee. I went to the Jama Musjid, which is, I think, the finest mosque of its kind I have seen. It has two minarets, each 130 feet high, so 1 had an opportunity of gratifying my taste for bird's *Ye views again, and certainly this was the best I have ever seen, for, apart from a magnificent view of the city, I could see many of the famous ruins which cluster profusely for miles round Delhi.
A little to the south, near the Jumna, stands a tall shaft, surrounded by ruins, which was set up by the Emperor Feroz Shah, who reigned at Delhi the fourteenth century. Then, three miles to the east, I could see the ruins fthe old fort, and not far from it the tomb of Humaion, the second Mogul emperor. Scores of other ruins could be seen In the distance and I much regretted that had not time *.o drive around and see some of them, but np doubt I shall have another opportunity. When I came down I was shown some relics of Mohammed, including his foot print in stone and a hair of his beard. The keeper of the relics, who kept them very carefully locked up in a small casket, could not explain why his hair was red. I then drove to the palace, which contains much less to see than the fort at Agra, and I had not much time to see what there was. The private hall of audience is very fine, all in white marble, and you can see (he place where the peacock throne used to stand, which was valued, if I remember rightly at £6,000,000. It was carried off by a Persian gentleman named Nadir Shah, who is said to have possessed himself of a few trifles, amounting in all to the value of £142,000,000. The pearl mosque is extremely beautiful and of the purest white marble, but it is not equa*' to the pearl mosque in the Agra fort.
American Crew* on Torpedo itoutn. One notable and commendable feature about the. torpedo fleet now in this harbor is the fact that the crews are made up of Americans. There is scarcely a foreign countenance to lie seen and good expressive "United States" is the language of the fleet. The men are big, strong, healthy young fellows, with ruddy cheeks and clear eyes. They are the kind of men that a good Judge would pick to do dangerous work in defense of their country, and there is no doubt that these men the "men behind the guns" upon whom depend the honor and effectiveness of the craft—would be found equal to the occasion should an emergency arise. It is to be hoped that it will not be long before Assistant Secretary Roosevelt will have the crews of tbe greater shipp of the navy "Americanized" up to the standard of the torpedo fleet.—Savannah (Ga.)

THE PROTECTED BOSTON I AN,
Hand i»r the Public Is in Everythlnc That lie Doe*. An imaginary Bostonian, on rising in the morning, says Prof. Eugene Wambaugh in the Atlantic, finds bis whole toilet, his breakfast and breakfast service under government supervision. Nor do this average Bostonian and his family escape from the public control upon rising from the table,. The children are by law compelled to go to school, and though there is an option to attend a private school the city gratuitously furnishes a school and school books. As for the father himself, when he reaches his door, he finds that public servants are gircflingi his trees with burlaps and searching, his premises for traces of the gypsy moth. Without stopping to reflect that he has not been asked to permit these public servants to go upon his property, he steps out upon a sidewalk constructed in accordance with public requirements, crosses the street paved and watered and swept by the public and enters a street car whose route, speed and fare are regulated by the public. Reaching the center of the city he asceuds to his office by an elevator subject to public inspection, and reads the mail that has been brought to hia. from all parts of the United States b^ public servants. If the dimness of his office may cause him to regret that sunlight appears to be outside public protection, he may be answered that by recent provisions the height of buildings is regulated and the malicious construction of high fences is prohibited. If now he leaves his office and goes to some store or factory in which he owns an interest he finds that for female employes chairs must be provided, that children must not be employed in certain kinds of work, that dangerous machinery must be fenced, that fire escapes must be furnished and probably that the goods produced or sold must be marked or packed in a certain way or must reach a certain standard. Indeed, whatever this man's business may be, it Is almost certain that in one way or another the public's hand comes between him and his employe, or between him and his customer.
CLIMATE OF ICELAND.
Wot So Forbidding It Would Seem to Be. Iceland is' ribt by any means so forbidding a country as its name implies "It is no more a land of ice than Greenland is a land of verdure, says an exchange. It is not nearly so cold as many placc in the United States,* not to mention the Canadian dominion. The 50 and 60 degrees below zero registered every winter in the Northwest territory and Assiniboia, and even the 35 and 40 below experienced in Monttiua. and North Dakota, are unheard of in Iceland. Neither is the other extreme of great heat felt, sueh as these very regions in North America endure. No Icelander knows what a temperature of 100 in the shade is. There are no sudden fluctuations or great changes the climate is remarkably equable. A variation of 30 degrees in a month is probably not on record In the Island. The equableness is due, of course, to the same cause that produces a similar effect in the British Isles—the gulf stream. This great ocean current washes the southern and western shores of Iceland, insuring a mild winter and a balmy summer. There are glaciers, but they form no icebergs. The sea around the island is never frozen, nor, indeed, is any floating ice seen save on rare occasions off the northern coast. Now and then in summer prolonged storms will carry floating ice across from the Greenland coast and drive it upon the northern shore of Iceland, together with cold fog and rain. In this way polar bears are also sometimes landed on the island. On the other hand, the winters are so mild that thunderstorms often occur. In fact, most of the thunder storms in Iceland are In the winter months.
