The discovery of the long lost colors of the old 50th regiment in the garden of Funtington house, near, Chichester, is a reminder of the strange fates that have befallen so many of these glor- lous military emblems, London Tit- Bits remarks. The colors of the 81st foot—since disbanded—were captured by American pirates during the war of independence and hidden away in Ireland; the colors of the 20th regi- ment were deliberately burnt prior to the surrender at Saratoga to prevent their capture by the enemy. At Bergen-op-Zoom the Royal Scots, to save their precious colors from fall- Ing into French hands, sank them deep in the river, though the enemy later fished them out; and when the second battalion of the 8th foot was disbanded at Portsmouth in 1816 the colors were cut into small pieces and distributed among the officers. One of the colors of the 1st North- amptonshire regiment, which had been carried right through the peninsular campaign, was discovered some years ago in a pawn broker’s shop, though how it got there is a mystery to this day. A similar uncertainty attaches to a pair of old colors of the 2d Bor- der regiment, which were recovered from a London pawn broker, who was offering them for sale, by Lord Archi- bald Campbell in 1888. Four years later four colors which had accompanied the Gloucester regi- ment in Egypt and in the peninsula were recovered from a York pawn- broker. It appeared that, having been bequeathed by an old colonel of the regiment to his son, they were ulti- mately secured by a servant, who, fall- ing on evil times, pawned them for a few shillings. SEVILLE STILL HAS CARMENS Thousands of the Picturesque and Charming Cigarette Girls Are Employed There. The most astonishing building in the Calle de San Fernando is the im- mense two story baroque edifice that covers more ground than the cathe- dral plus the court of oranges, and serves the purpose of a tobacco fac- tory. The portal is adorned with busts of Columbus and Fernando Cortes, and I wish very much that we had had time to go inside and see these many cigarette girls at their work. As we passed I thought again of Carmen and the story of Bizet’s fantastic Sevillian opera, for about 5,000 Carmens, or “cigareras,” like Carmen, are em- ployed in this factory, and attire them- selves today in gay gowns and fas- cinating mantillas, with flowers tucked under their ears and coquettishly placed in their hair, very much like the heroine of the opera. Like the opera, also, adjoining the factory are the artillery barracks, and one imag- ines it to be quite possible that some impressionable Don Jose should be fascinated by some of these piquant and Pretty Carmens.—From “Royal Spain of Today,” by Mrs. Tryphosa Bates-Batcheller. See Value of Exercise. There is no doubt but that exercise is a good thing for those who do not get it, but to many the daily use of dumb-bells, weights and ' similar ap- paratus grows irksome, the reason be- ing a lack of stimulation owing to the fact that the person taking the exer- cise sees nothing accomplished as the result of the work and time spent. Gladstone preferred to work at the woodpile, and here and there was the constantly maintained interest of see- ing the pile increase after each period of action. The same has been accom- plished in a real up-to-the-moment manner by a French inventor who has taken an exercising machine which is rather familiar in the shape of a bicycle on a permanent stand, and he has combined this with a storage bat- tery. When the various members of the family are taking their daily exer- cise on this machine they are storing up current to be used in the form of il- luminant after nightfall, Architects Held to Account, It is unusual for a house, however small, to be erected in France without the service of an architect, who not only draws the plans, but actually su- perintends the work. Usually it is he who orders the building material and assures himself that its quality is up to specifications and requirements. The contractor and his workmen per- form their duties in conformity with the architect's orders, and the latter, who is usually a man of capital, ad- vances the funds required in order that the contractor need not wait for payment until the building is com- pleted. Moreover, the French law im- poses on the architect a serious re- sponsibility, since he, as well as the contractor, is responsible for all de- fects of construction during a period of ten years.

Although every one pitied him and wanted to be kind to him and there was not a home in the town that would not have been glad to take him in and keep him, Bruce, a shepherd dog, wandered disconsolately about the streets of an Arkansas town. He was pining for the only master he had ever known. For fifteen years he had had all that a dog wants—a good home and somebody to love continu- ously, and now that his old master had gone away to California he was broken-hearted. Perhaps, too, he grieved over his master’s fallen for- tunes and the fact that he had failed in business and had been compelled to remove to another place. Surely it was a hard fate that parted an ever- faithful dog from his life-long friend. But kind eyes and sympathetic hearts noted the old dog as he tramp- ed wearily around the town, seeking the one who was all the world to him and refusing to attach himself to any other. Touched by the dog's misery, some one proposed that a collection be ta- ken to send Bruce to California to his master. The suggestion met with en- thusiastic approval. The hat was passed and it required but a few min- utes to secure enough money. One of the old dog’s friends made a crate, furnished it with enough food tc last him a week, and Bruce was start ed on his long journey to rejoin his master. And now, in the town where Bruce lived so long, they miss their old fav- orite; but a warm glow comes over the heart when some one remarks .about the happiness that must have come to the faithful old fellow when he found his master. CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST Poultry Breeders of Today Might Profit by a Study of Methods Used by the Egyptians. The announcement is made by a British scientist that he has discov- ered how the ancient Egyptians incu- bated chickens to the number of 120, 000,000 a year. He has found incu- bators which he declares were used in Egypt 5,000 years ago. The secret has been well guarded, but it is laid bare at last. They had no oil stoves or gas or electric heated incubators, but they had ovens which worked much better, even though they required more constant tending. Each oven was calculated to hold 7,000 eggs, and the fuel by which it was heated consisted of chopped straw and dung, but for the last ten days of the hatching the energy was supplied al- together by the chickens themselves. It is the commonest error of those operating our modern incubators to use too much heat, especially toward the end of the period, and now we may learn from the old Egyptians how not to do things as well as how to do them. The use of the straw and other light fuel shows that the Egyptians were most careful to avoid too in- tense heat at any stage. We thought that we were the first to use incuba- tors, but we are fifty centuries behind the times. How to Keep Eggs Eleven Months. One of the oldest methods of pre- serving eggs is to dip them in a bath of silicate of soda, or “liquid glass;” but recently the wisdom of this meth- od has been questioned, it being said that the eggs absorb soluble silica in sufficient amount to make them unfit to be eaten. Dr. Bartlett, an English chemist, has been testing eggs so preserved, and has proved that if the bath con- tains free soda the eggs absorb it and their whites become like jelly. But when a ten per cent. solution of sili- cate of soda be used there is none of this absorption. After being im- mersed for eleven months the eggs contain no more silica than when fresh. They are in very much better condition than when preserved for the same length of time by freezing, as the pores of their shells are her metically ciosed. Spondylotherapy. Spondylotherapy is the gospel of seeing red. It has been invented and promulgated by a San Francisco phy- sician, and already numbers its little squad of devotees. The spondylotherapists declare that red is the greatest human energizer. A man or woman who is an habitual victim of weariness may be stirred to ambition and activity by wearing a red shirt, red stockings or a red neck- tie. A room papered or painted a glaring red is the ideal workshop. Redness tends to bring out the maxi. mum of human efficiency. There is no case of laziness so serious that it cannot be cured by persistent spon- dylotherapic treatment. Why He Left Scotland. At a Caledonian banquet in Lon- don a Scotsman who had settled in the metropolis made a speech, in which Scotland and all things Scot- tish were so fulsomely praised that an Englishman, who sat next him, said when he had finished: ? “If Scotland is all that you Scots- men say it is, why don’t you stay “Weel,” answered the Scotsman. “Ah’ll tell ye hoo it wis wi’ me. When Ah wis in business in Fife Ah fand a the fowk wis just as cliver as mesel’ an’ Ah cudna gar the two en’s meet. ‘Sae Ah cam’ awa’ Sooth, an’ sin’ syne, ‘man, Ah've been daein’ rale weel.” | WANT A SEASON TICKET FOR THE CHAUTAUQUA WEEK ] ‘EVERY BODY'S DOING IT" In the use of ordinary pills the dose must be increased the longer the pill is used. That means the pill habit is being established. In the use of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets the dose is diminished instead of increased. That means that permanent benefit is being established. The “Pellets” are an aid to Nature, and when the natural functions are re-estab- lished the “Pellets” having done their work can be dispensed with. They are invaluable in cases of constipation and its myriad consequences. ——The WATCHMAN enjoys the proud | distinction of being the best and cleanest | county paper published. = Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
