Only once did it occur as late as the 25th of April in the ".j \ 19th century. It is booked to come but once again on the 25th of April during the present century. There is a current belief with the people that a late Easter denotes a cold and backward spring. But this.does not always follow, since the season, in the presence of a late Easter, may be mild and open. Edgar Sandifer Dead. , Mr. Edgar Sandifer, a son of Mr. P. W.

Jt o jrtwrlj Thedford's Black-Draught comes nearer regulating the entire system and keeping the oody in health than any other medicine made. It is always ready in any emergency to treat ailments that are frequent in any family, such as indigestion, biliousness, colds, diarrhoea, ana stomach aches.

OPERA GLASSES. Poor One* Are the Cause of a Host of Ocular Infirmities. The woman was not old, but she complained that her eyesight was falling fast The oculist was a fatherly looking old gentleman; consequently he felt privileged to put a few questions decidedly personal and apparently nonprofessional. , "Do you go to the theater often?" he asked. "Once or twice a week." "In what part of the house do you sit?" ?11? J - /.ntlnn, " noma 111 LUC H/y ?a?icij, Laurt the hesitating reply. "And now what grade of opera glasses do yon use?' "I'm afraid," said the woman, "that they are not good." "I thought so," said the doctor. "Thafs what's the matter with your eyes. Poor opera glasses are ruining them. If I had my way there wouldn't be a cheap pair of opera glasses on the market. They are death to the eyes. A couple of seasons of theater going in the top gallery with poor glasses for a steady companion are sure to damage the best pair of eyes in town. Better a hundred times let the glasses alone. If you have a good, strong pair, all right?go ahead and use them. Iff not trust to the naked eye for making out the mysteries of the play.

HISTORY OF SHEEP. Associated With Mankind From the Earliest Known Days. Of all domesticated animals the sheep has from time immemorial been most closely associated with mankind, writes R. Henry Rew in*Outing. An erudite author sixty years ago, having laboriously collated an assortment of allusions to sheep made by sacred and profane writers, concluded that "the history of these animals is so interwoven with the history of man that they never existed in a wild state at all. Biblical history from the time of Abel is full of allusions to the flocks which formed the chief possessions of the Jewish people and their neighbors. The spoils of war and the tribute of T.OOOQ J b-In era lni-orpOtr consisted of sheeD. Y OUVJiM UtU^w ?v^Dw.^ ? Thus we read that Mesha, king of Moab, was a sheep master and rendered unto the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs and a hundred thousand rams with the wool. Moses after his victory over the Mldianltes obtained as loot no less than 675,000 sheep, and long before the Christian era sheep were cultivated in western Europe. Spain and Italy possessed them from an unknown period, although long after Borne was founded the inhabitants had not learned to sheer the fleece, and until the time Of Pliny the practice of plucking it from the skin was not wholly abandoned, so long that the humble shepherds of Syria preceded in their knowledge of necessary arts the future conquerors of their country. A Vale of "Tlppin*." N To tip or not to tip the person wno but does his or her duty Is a question recalling an Incident set down In Walpole's "Reminiscences" of how a king once unwillingly encouraged the custom. "This Is a strange country," commented George L "The first morning after my arrival at St James I looked out of the window and saw a park with walls, canal, etc., which they told me were mine. The next day Lord Chetwynd, the ranger of my park, sent me a brace of carp out of my canal, and I was told that I must give 5 guineas to Lord Chetwynd's servant for bringing me my own carp out of my own canal in my own park!" * The British Coast. The most dangerous part of the British coast Is that between Flamborough head and the North Foreland, including as it does both the Humber and the Thames. The next most dangerous district Is that between Anglesea and the Mull of Cantyre, which includes the Mersey and the Clyde. Next comes that between Hartland point and St David's head, which includes the Bristol channel. The district between the North Foreland and St Catherine's, including, of course, the strait of Dover, comes but fourth on the list A W>?>oat Victim. "Say, master," said the tattered tramp, "cant yoose stake me to er dlmet Pm de victim uv er washout" "Victim of a washout!" echoed the portly dtteeo In evident surprise.
