WINDSOR IN WINTER SOMETHING OF THE FAVORITE HOME “ OF HER MAJESTY, Tiow the Queen's Residence is Heated and Lighted—Four Methods and Materials and How They Are Employed—Coal by the Traia Load. For lighting the castle four methods are available, all of which are more or less in operation, viz: Gas, oil, candles and the electrie light, while for warming and cook- ing, wood, coal and gas are used. During the residence of the court some hundreds of persons are in the castle, besides-the royal family and the visitors, consequently Lue adequate provision of all these proces- ses is of a somewhat gigantic nature, keeping many servants constantly em- ployed. For the general lighting and heating gas and coal are adopted, but this is not so in the Queen’s own rooms, nor in many other of the royal apartments. In the matter of fires for her own rooms the Queen strictly banishes coal). She hasa confirmed preference for wood only. Spe- cial supplies of wood have to be obtained for this purpose from the thickly timbered hills a few miles up the river, above Wind- sor, Where anumber of workmen are re- xularly employed on this task. The tim- ber, wher felled and roughly trimmed on the spot, is brought down to a wharfon the river side, where it is dressed and cut upinto blocks of fixed sizes. It is then stacked to get seasoned, and as required supplies are brought down to the castle for consumption in the Queen’s rooms. Gas and oil are excluded from her Ma- jesty’s apartments. Her light is provided by means of wax candles, all of one special pattern, their daily removal being the duty of a special official. In some of the other apartments gas is utilized, and in other parts oil lamps are burned, gas sup- plying the quarters of the staff generally. Noreover, although the Queen bars all but candles for her own private use, she has permitted the introduction of an electric light plant. Thisis placed underneath the north terrace, and is in charge of a special engineer, under the general supervision of a prominent electrician. This plant has never been largely used, but the light has been led into and applied to the main cor- ridors, to one or two of the royal apart- ments and to the library. A year or so ago the original plant was replaced by newer and more powerful machinery, which would probably suffice to light the whole of the castle if the Queen so willed, but this has not yet occurred, nor is she tikely to sanction it. Electric bells and telephones nbound throughout the castle, but electric light is allowed very limited play. The coal required for Windsor Castle chiefly comes from certain collieries in North Wales, brought in train loads of perhaps 500 tons ata time. From the sta- tion it is carried to the castle, in various parts of which are deep and spacious cel- lars, into which it is tipped. Thence it is conyeyed as required tothe different rooms and offices, numbering some hundreds. Lifts are almost unknown in the castle, consequently the coal has to be hoisted from the cavernous cellars and carried hither and thither by coal porters. The replenishing of the fires is carried out upon a most careful and effictent plan, footmen and other higher servants receiving the coal from the porters and passing it on to the royal pees ea at intervals through- out the day. Each official connected with heatingand lighting the castle has his allotted duties and recogrized position, and thus the resi- dence of the highest lady in the land is lighted and warmed in efficient manner by many and various processes.—London News. New Light on Courtship and Marriage. An English writer has recently been giving some what he calls “new light on love, courtship and marriage” that is worth considering. Anybody, he says, who has not yet fallen in love can readily raise the vision of the subsequent dear one by looking at himself in the glass. If he be stout, the girl will probably be thin; if he have asnub nose, his love will center ubout the Roman one; if he be dark, 10 to 1 a blonde ultimately captures him. Thus nature corrects defects and strives to realize her ideal. The same holds good in a measure of the mentai qualities. A fool should make it his business to fall in love with a clever woman, and, conversely, a wise man should marry a fool if he has any respect fornature. Note, further,that girls with Roman noses are, as a rule,good house msnagers; but against this amiable quality must be set the fact that your Koman nose is essentially managing in every direction and is not content with domestic duties alone. Your Roman nose, in fact, requires a complete surrender and is rarely happy till she gets it. Nuses, he thinks, are a leading index to character. Avoid asharp nose. If, besides being sharp, it is tinted with varying shades of red or blue, or is blue pointed, there is an asperity of temper, which it would not be well for you to encounter. Let your converse with “blue points’’ be confined to the oyster bar, then. Avoid the blue-nosed maiden as you would the blue-nosed ourang-outang—both are capable of infinite mischief. He also cautions us against red hair and bushy eyebrows. In selecting a husband “choose a sensible man, one of solid, mature judg- ment.’’ Excellent advice, only a bit too general, as is his infallible recipe for win- ning his leve. To do so a woman must possess womanly graces, the power of setting out her qualities so as to inspire the teuder passion and gift of fascination. hat is the whole secret. Stub Ends of Thought, A woman talks at her best when she doesn’t know what sheis talking about. Domestic felicity is of as many types as religion is. We unconsciously judge all men by our- selves. While a man is thinking how a thing ought to be done, a woman will do it. Cupid always goes about with his bow and arrows loaded. A wise man discovers by patient study what a fool stumbles upon. Women admire handsome men, and love homely ones. No woman should ever worry over the loss of A man Whe hadn't the courage to usk for her. i Compliance, “Leave the house.” For an instant he confronted the girl in silence. “Very well,” he answered, with an ef- fort.

A French dramatic critic, with some show of medical knowledge, represents that nearly all actors and actresses ont- rageously violate nature in their imita- tions of death He cites in corroboration of his charge, the customary theatrical death of Camille, in the younger Duma’s favorite emotional play of that title According to the author, his heroine is affected with pulmonary cousumption, and an incidental attack of hemorrhage of the lungs extinguishes her life. There is absolute y nothing dramatic to be made out of this mode of dying; if fidelity to fact be obeyed. The gushing of a stream of blood from the mouth would be realistic, but the imitation of such a pht nomenon is never made by actors, male or female, nor any discreet manager tolerate such a piece of stage business. Again, the whelming suffocation which produces the rapid death in Camille’s case is never accompanied by convulsions, such as her dying representatives on the stage almost always assume. In natural death from thiscause the sufferer simply collapses from failure of the vital powers. Theatrica) poisoning scenes are also us- ually untrue to nature. It is popularly believed that when a fatal dose of laudan- um or morpuine is swallowed the victim immediately sinks into a death-like sleep, as is commonly seen on the stage, where- as the first effect of this poison taken in like quantity is invariably to excite and enliven. Nor is the mode of dying after the hack- neyed cardiac stagestab in conformity with the laws of nature. The actor sim- ply falls at full length, or in a heap, whereas the every-day member of society gives aspring when the heart is struck before entering eternity by this unhappy gate. Even the modern Othello has not inherited enough of Shakespeare’s won- derful fidelity to truth tc die naturally after a stab through the heart.—Cinciunati Enquirer. over- Sweating Waiters. Waiters in the foreign restaurants of London have distinct grievances that should be remedied, if the statements of a German waiter in a contemporary are to be believed. He makes complaint of the annoyance and anxiety suffered by him- self,in common with other members of his class, owing to a system of sweating of the most obnoxious kind which, he asserts, is practiced in restaurants that are kept and mainly frequented by foreigners. The proprietors of these establishments not only pay their waiters nothing, but exact from thema premium of sometimes as much as half 4 sovereign for the privilege of attending to the wants of customers and performing other duties for twelve or sixteen hours a day. In those restaurants largely patronized by Englishmen and Americans it seems that these men are able to 22rn a more or less meager income, even though their masters impose a fur- ther tax upon them by charging for at- tendance in the bill, but where the cus- tomers hail from countries in which tip- ping does not obtain they find the struggle for existence both bicter and disappoint- ing. The Old Czar and the New. Almost the last thought of the late Czar was for the theatre employes, who, in a way, would be among the chief losers by hisdeath. Opening his eyes with an effort, he signed te the Czarowitz to approach. “Do not let the theatres suffer on account of the long mourning. [ do not wish so many people should be reduced to misery on account of my death.”” The new Em- peror did not forget his father’s dying words, for one of his first acts was to give 500,000 roubles toward the support of the actors and actresses during the time that they were to be out of employment. The new Czar has receive his late fath- er’s Ministers with cordial warmth, and when M. De Giers, the Minister for For- eign Affairs, requested permission to re- tire from his post on account of ill health, Nicolas II. expressed a hope that they might work together for many years to come. But M. De Giers replied, “See, your Majesty, my feet can no longer carry me.” “It is not your feet, but your head of which I have need,” responded the Czar. Music and the Honeymakers, The belief that becs can hear, and that they find music in sounds which to human beings are hideous, is at least as old as Virgil, and probably a good deal older. Hias not Virgil described—and have we not all heard in our childhood—how any- one can persuade bees to twarm by bang- ing a gong in an intelligent and insinuat- ing manner? Beekeepers, it is true, have of late years abandoned the practice, but the belief in its efficacy still prevails toa considerable extent. At last, however, Sir John Lubbock comes to knock the il lusion on the head. He made some experi- ments with honey and a musical box,wish- ing to know whether the tinkling tunes would have the same effect upon bees as the sound of the dinner bell has upon a hungry terrier. He found that the bees, however hungry, never rose to associating the idea of the music with the idea of meals, and he draws the inference that they cannot hear. The argument certain- ly sounds conclusive, but Sir John could hardly have surprised us more if he had told us that bees could not sting. Stone That is Flexible, It may be safely said that no specimen in a geological collection is more curious than the bar of flexible sandstone, which can be bent with less pressure than that required to bend a piece of wet leather of the same size. In an article upon the sub- ject in the Mineral Collector we are told that “when a thin slice of the stone is Jooked at under a lens by transmitted light the fragments are seen to be locked ! together like the parts of a sectional , oy, fixed, but only loosely. The simplest way of explaining how this stone was formed isto say that grains of sand were once cemented firmly together by another material. which has been partly dissolved, Jeaving countless natural ball-and-socket joints of jagged shape behind.” Church Bats, It is a queer fact that inthe basement of acertain Lewiston church live bats that never go out, but exist upon the mice they can catch there. The janitor says that a dozen of them will watch for a mouse, and when he appears swoop down upon him, and after a lively battle he is conquered, If any of the bats are overcome in the fray they are eaten, too. The basement was en- tirely freed from them once, The furnace tender would leave the window open till midnight, and then close it while the bats were outside, and they had to find another abode.

Miss “Four years ago while in the old country | (England), my daughter Hannah wis sent away | from the hospital, in a very low condition with consumption of the lungs and bowels, and weak action of the heart. The trip across the water to this country seemed to make her feei better for a while. Then she began to get worse, and for 14 weeks she was unable to get off the bed. She grew worse for five months and lost the use of her limbs and lower part of body, and if she sat up in bed had to be propped up with pillows. Physicians Said She Was Past Ali Help and wanted me to send her to the ‘Home for Incurables.’ But I said as long as I could hold my hand up she should net go. We then began Hood's: Cures to give her Hood’s Sarsapariila. She is getting strong, walks around, is out doors every day; has no trouble with her throat and no cough, and her heart seems to be allright again. Shae has a first class appetite. We regard her eure as nothing short of a miracle.” W. Wyatt, 88 Marion Street, Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario. Hood’s Pills are purely vegetabie and verfectly harmiess.
