gratify the desires of our patrons. The offerings de

THE POPE'S VALET.
Tho Signal That Will Tell of tho
Pontiff's Death,
riom the l'.ill Mall (l.izettr
That wonderful old man, I.eo XIII,
has leally made another recojfeiy. It
was onlv this moinlng that, turning
to Ills peisonal attendant, he said,
with a sweet Millie. "Well, Plo. I won
clei what they vlll say now, those
clever persons w ho have killed and
bulled me so often In the last twenty
ycnis."
Pftv Plo c'entia, the privnto st
vnnt of l.eo XIII. halls from Caiplne
lo, the blithplnce of his master. He
Is mote even than n faithful und privi
leged servant, he Is a constant com
panion. This Intimate connection with
his holiness dates back even before the
ascension of Leo XIII to the papal
throne. Plo Invntlibly Meeps in a
small chamber next the bed loom of
the pope, nnd thcie Is between the
two so thin a partition that ho can
even hear tho pontiff's breathing. At
all times ho Is able to keep surveillance
by the aid of a little glass window,
which Is at tho bead of bis bed. With
tho telephone he Is put In constant
communication with the pope's doctor.
Prof. Utpponl, who lives out of tho
Vatican ltesldes this eminent phy
sician, there ate two assistant doc
tens, who live In the palace nnd have
th- caro ot tho health of the 300 bouls
who tompilbo the population of the
Vatican. In iho dnys of Plus IX thero
wero many more who made their abode
theic.
Hven now that tho pontile is so old,
nnd far from feeling lobnst, he Insists
on tlslng in ly. About C o'clock Cav.
Plo I'ontia knocks at his door, enters,
opens the shutters, and retires Imme
diately, as his holiness has never liked
nssUtanco iu Ids oidlnnry dro-fltig, but
lately he has bad to give way some
what, and his valet returns to buckle
his shoes nnd tlo the whtlo sash ho
weais with his wlilto robes.
At night voty llttlo military watch Is
maintained. There Is only a Swiss
guard at tho door of tho papal apart-
