CAMERON COUNTY PRKSS, THURSDAY, JULV 16 ,1908. A Trying f/lomcnt. Professor I.: ;• M Sfliroetter waa colled 1" t! ; / . ii Prince Fred erlck in 1 II'M'M:!- I'II- Morrcll Mac kenzie lnui •.1 s.-in licuio. The priu-o, cvi,i.. . usiuclinj; (lie worst, turned to N-.-iirortter ; r Hk- examina tion and ,s:i!d, "t reoni-si !lie truth as to 111. ailment." Si liroetter hesitated and mailt' 1111 effort to direct (lie con versation in anoiher direction, l>nt Frt deriek insisted. "1 am a soldier," lie said, "and ran look death in the eye. 1 u«J\ you now plainly, to the point, Is my complaint cancer?" Sehroetter could hardly contain himself, and years after the :;eene when lu- re called il lie spoke of it as (lie most painful in his life. 11c conducted the crown prince to a chair and asked him to he seated. Then lie said. "Your im perial highness, you are suffering from a serious complaint, and il is possible that it may develop into carcinoma, but that cannot be determined posi tively a I this moment." Frederick be came deathly pale, but never for a moment lost his self control and smiled grimly when he thanked the physician for his honesty. Coming to an Understanding. in the amiable way of villagers they were discussing (lie matrimonial af fairs of a couple who, though recently wed. had begun to lind (he yoke of Hymen a burden. „ "'Tls all along o' these hasty mar riages," opimd one f.tuMlic old gentle man. who : • 1 !>e» i 1 j.-h to the fore in the t):.'< :• >" ' did not un derstand e oihiT. ill! nobbut knowed each <•; her for .t matter o* sev en year." "Well, that seems long enough," aid an interested lady listener. "Long cno'! Bah! Ye're wrong! When a body's coortin' be eanna be too careful. Why, my coortship lasted a matter o' nineteen year!" "You certainly were careful," agreed the lady listener. "And did you find your plan successful when you mar ried V" "Ye jump to conclusions," said the old man impatiently. "I understood her then, so I didna marry her!"— St. James' (Jazette. Poor Comfort. Apropos of (he pretensions of those who might be con ted ;is in society, Mrs. Rloomlield Moore in her book on "Sensible Ullijuette" tells (lit! follow ing story: A snobbi.-li young man and his sister after their return home from an even ing party were criticising the company, quite unaware that their sensible old uncle was lying awake in his chamber and could hear every word from where they stood in the corridor. "Why, even the Grinders were there, and you know their father was a gro cer. 1 Mas never in such a mixed com pany," said the sister. "And we will never he again if I can help it," answered the brother. The uncle called out: "Children, what do you thiuk your grandfather was? lie was a bootmaker, and some people say not a very honest one either. Now goto bed." Cramp Rings. Formerly it was customary for kings of England on Good Friday to hallow certain rings, the wearing of which prevented cramp or epilepsy. They wore made from the metal of decayed cotllns and consecrated with an elab orate ceremony, some details of which are still preserved. They wore "highly recommended by the medical profes sion" about 155", for Andrew I'.oorde in his "Breviary of Health," speaking of cramp says,"The kynge's majes ite hath a great, helpe in this matter in hallowing crampo ringes with out money or petition." Occasionally cramp rings played a persuasive part in diplomacy. Lord Homers, our am bassador at the court of Charles V., wrote in 1508 "to my lorde cardinall's grace" for some "cranipe ryngs," with trust to "bestowe them well, by God's grace."—Westminster Gazette. Persian Burials. In Persia two sticks a foot long are placed in the coflln to prop up the arms of the corpse when it rises from the gravn and is being questioned by the angel Gabriel. After it lias satis fied the angel that it is the body of a true Mussulman it will receive strength to stand alone. A glance from a dog is necessary to drive away the spirit of defilement, and for this pur pose a street cur is brought into the room of death and its eyes led to the corpse by a tempting bit of bread laid on the still breast. Restlessness. Mere restlessness is not a matter for which physicians are often consulted. It is on the face of it an unimportant malady, but when it exists in sufficient intensity to form the subject of com plaint and to Induce the s, offerer to seek advice it is usually found to be the superficial indication of a grave underlying condition.—Hospital. Change of Heart. Parson Primrose—Why do you think it was out of place for your father to say grace? Freddie—Because it was only a few minutes afterward that he was swearing over having to carve the turkey.—Philadelphia Inquirer. Labor Saving Devices.

"In the south seas whiskers is a rari ty," sal 1 a sailor. "Most ot them there Maoris has hairless laces, like a girl's When a young Maori, at the age of six teen or so, finds himself endowed with whiskers he bie: ses (he day when in was born, for now. by tar, he know.- his whiskers will keep him' from want in bis old age.

The Bottle ai Ship Launches. Down (o Charles 11.'s time it was customary to name and baptize a ship after she was launched, sometimes a week or two after. The old Tudor method used fort: I'li-nl'-war was still iu use. Popys' "Diary" shows that. The ship v is safely got afloat, after which some high personage went on board with a special silver "standing cup" or "flaggon" of wine, out of -which he drank, naming (he ship, and poured a liha I ion on tiie quarter deck. The cup was then generally given to the dockyard master shipwright as a me mento. When did the present usage of naming and baptizing a ship before she is sent afloat come In? I trace the last explicit mention of the old method to 1(101, when the Koyal Kathorlne was launched (see Popys). The first men tion of smashing a bottle of wine on the bows of a British man-of-war that I have found is in a contemporary newspaper cutting of May, 1780, de scribing the christening of 11. M. S. Magnanime at Doptford, but nothing is hinted that it.was then a new custom. —London Notes and Queries. Almost et Rest. A kind hearted but somewhat close listed man who was sorely afflicted with a conscience came to a friend, holding a visiting card in his hand. lie looked deeply troubled. "1 know," said he."this man wants to borrow money. I know he will drink it. What am I to do?" "it is perfectly simple," said (he friend. "Send down word that you are out." "I cannot," he said. "I have never told a lie in my life." "Then," said his friend, "lend all youi money to 1110. and you can tell him you haven't a penny in your pocket." After some hesitation the kind heart ed man complied and, having seen Ills caller, returned. "Well," asked his friend, "are your conscience and mind at rest?" "Not quite, man,"he replied, "but they will be as soon as you have given me my money back."—Bellman. Ho Writ. A well known dramatic critic visiting Stratford 0:1 Shakespeare's birthday and, hearing the clangor of the bells which, from their tower in the old church where the poet lies buried, awoke the little town to its devotions approached a wintry headed street sweeper in front of Irving's inn and said: "Who is the folio-., they're mak ing this fuss about? 1 see you have Shakespeare hotels, Shakespeare gin gerbread, and only the other day I saw a man driving to town some pigs called 'Shakespeare's best.' Who is he —the fellow who lived in that tumble down shanty yonder?" The "oldest in habitant" megaphoned his ear and, wheezing, replied, "I think he writ." "Oh, ho writ, did he? What did he write —books, confessions of a deer stealer, magazine articles—what?" "I think be writ for the Bible." A Decorated Interior. Mrs. Graham is an estimable lady whose hobby is house decoration. One day the lady was careless enough to drink a glass of red ink, believing it to be claret. She was a good deal scared when she discovered her mis take, but no harm came to her. The doctor who was summoned, upon hearing what had happened, dry ly remarked to her, "Mrs. Graham, there's such a thing as pushing this rage for decorated interiors too far."— Argonaut. Memory Training. If men only realized liow great an asset In life is a retentive memory they would take care to see that their chil dren's were properly trained.
