LEGEND OF THE LACEMAKEPt.
Hon- ii n nines .Maid Wni Vlltil
With a Vision.
Her jewels if great price were not the
only things bjqueathed to her daughters
by tho Kmpress of Austria, bno loic a lor
tiino In a collection of lnccs to tho eldest
that has already proved a bono of conten
tion between tho two ladies. Tneto laces,
It Is claimed by connolssours, nro priceless
and should novcr bo trusted beyond tho
walls of a museum. Should they bo seen,
however, a fresh Impetus might bo given
to tho Industry of lacemaklng, now In a
languishing condition. Tho queen ol tno
Belgians was the first to sound tho trumpet
of alarm about this falling off in Flanders,
tho cradle of tho art of lacomakmg.
As the legend runs, it was Jaqueuno,
countess of Flanders, who was deeply In
lovo with her noble husband, tho hand
some Hcncllck, but who did not return
this Render feeling with tho ardor it de
served. Ho had even made eyes at the
countess' maid, Serena, who, for tho solo
crlmo of being beautiful, was sent by her
mistress to a dark and nolsomo place or
concealment In a corner of thopalaco. The
room whero the poor girl was confined
opened on a small, damp garden, and
there she would sadly sit and mourn for
her Moved, tho equerry LiUitpold.
One day her eyes filled with tears. She
prayed to the Virgin to corao to her rescue
by some miracle, and then, raising her
heavy eyelids, sho beheld a million white
silky threads, so tenuous and arranged in
such wonderful patterns that sho was lost
In admiration beforo them.
By and by she began to wish she could
Imitate the lovely patterns of good Mary's
threads, for evidently they had been
placed thero in answer to her supplication.
At last, after a montn oi patient nnu arau
ous toll, sho achieved a pieco of gossamer,
cobwebllko wort that rivaled the mlracu
lous threads arrayed by her holy patron.
The laco was sent to the countess, who
shed tears of delight at tho sight of so
much beauty. Tho next step was to send
for tho captlvo and marry her to the
equerry, bestowing a sum of money on the
happy ialr that would huvo kept thorn In
comfort over after, but Independently of
the countess they becamo rich, for tho
votincr woman taught her art to seven
daughters, from whom descended all the
Bruges lacemakers.
This U a sweet romance, but from
whom did this pious Serena receive the
threads with which she Imitated tho heav
only cobwebs!1 It has been suggested that
sho unraveled her stockings and again
that sho plucked tho golden hairs from her
head, but why will folks bo so dreadfully
practical? It is sufllclont that tho hand
made laco of Flanders is tho most ex
quisite thing wrought by human fingers,
and the fatal looms havo almost de
stroyed Its art with their now Industry. It

THE SAP OF TREES.
Contrary to (tie Popular llellef, It
Never Descend.
Probably nearly nlno out of every ten
bcllovo that sap aweiids In the spring and
returns In the fall. Although I havo
never been able to find anytlilng to tho
contrary In any book 1 havo over seen, 1
know from long nnd careful observation
that this Is not ho. Tho sup never descends.
It fulfills Its olUce in causing tho growth
of the leaves and lidding another to the
rings wlilch Indicate tho minimi growth of
the tree. So soon in tho leaves fall tho
sap 1xglus to ronseond. This mil bu proved
In various ways. Any fnrmer who has
cut a pile of hard wood In November has
noticed the mp llles gathering around tho
ends of the sticks on warm nays, nioy
are attracted by tho sap, which can bo
seen Issuing from tho ends of tho sticks,
which saphnd already liogiin to ascend be
fore the sticks wero cut.
Any hunter who 1ms sot a lino of log
traps for sable has noticed the sap flowing
miiu maple sticks m warm days in No
vember. Partridges begin to bud In No-
vomljer and find something besides dry
twigs or thoy would not bud. But a still
mnm miivlimlni? ornof Is that tn somo
warm falls I have known maple sirup to
bo niado and sold In quantities of soveral
gallons nt a time. Pussy willows, whorp
growing In wet places, often bloom In
warm November and December. One can
sco that the buds on tho horse chestnuts
aro swelling In .lanunry. Tho sap which
Is proved to bo present In all thoso cases Is
not tho snp whloh went up In tho spring
descending, but now sap, which Is going
up.
No ono over speaks of tho sap In a corn
stalk going down In tho fall. It has fed
tho leaves and matured the corn, and Its
work ended there. So In tho trco each
year tho sap has finished Its work when
tho loaves havo matured nnd a now crop
of sun at onco begins to tako Its place. Of
courso this sap cannot ascend when tho
wood Is frozen, but whenever tho wood Is
thawed It keeps ascending.
Another error Is that trees In growing
carry their branches up with them as they
grow, or, to make It plnlner, that a llino
which Is llvo feet from tho ground win m
tlmo bo ten feet. Tho fact Is that limbs
grow as much lower on the lower sldo as
they do higher on tho upper sldo and no
more. A limb which Is an inch in ill
ameter, if It grows to bo threo Inches, will
bo an Inch farther from tlio ground on
the upper sldo and an Inch nearer on tho
under sldo. Tho forks or crotches In trees
often get to lie considerably higher from
tho two branches which form It growing
together an they Increase In size. Tho top
of tho tree grows up, but limbs do not

Is a certain mystery enveloping the

When he arrived the young prince

doctor. He was so weak that he could
not stand. At times he was unable to

In heartrending terms to save him from
the awful pains In his head. Toward
the end these pains Increased, causing
frightful scenes. He died In a delirium,
alone with the two doctors entrusted
with tho case.
It seems strange that no relatives or
friends were summoned to the death
bed. The proprietor of the sanitarium
declined to state the cause of death
and the registrar at the town hall said
the death certificate was under lock
and key, and would be shown to no
body. '

A Remedy For the Grippe.
A remedy recommended for patients af
flicted with the Grippe is Kemp's Balsam,
which is especially adapted to diseases ol the
throat and lungs. Do not wait for the first
symptoms of the disease, but get a bottle to
day and keep it on hand for use the moment
it is needed. If ncgleotcd the grippe has a
tendency to bring on pneumonia. The Balsam
prevents this by keeping the cough loose. All
druggists sell the Balsam.

Washington. Feb. 9. -Tlioro was nn
olmoBt complote relcnso yesterday of
tho tension under which tho rapid oc
currence of ovcntB in tho Philippines
has held the officials of the adminis
tration since tho first startling news
from Manila Saturday night. This wns
brought about through tho receipt of
a bulletin from General Otis summing
up the lutcst results 6f tho fighting ho
has had with tho natives, uonorni
Otis' dispatch was as follows:
'Situation rapidly Improving, ito-
connolssnnco yesterday to south sov-
oral miles to Lagunado hay, to south
east eight miles, driving strnggllng in
surgent troops in various directions,
encountering no decided opposition.
Army disintegrated nnd natives re
turning to villages displaying whlto
flag. Near Caloocan enonry made n
stand behind entrenchments; charged
by Kansas troops, led by Colonel Funs
ton. Close encounter, resulting In rout
of the enemy, with heavy loss. Loss to
Kansans, Lieutenant Alford klrled, six
men wounded. . On tho 4th Agulnnldo
Issued proclamation charging Ameri
cans with Initiative, and declared war;
Sundny Issued another calling to resist
foreign Invasion; his influence
throughout this section Is destroyed;
now applies for a cessation of hostili
ties and conference; havo declined to
answer.
The statement that Agulnaldo's in
fluence has been destroyod and that
the Filipino leader was seeking for a
cessation of hostilities and for a con
ference was most acceptable, and was
Interpreted as an admission that he
had realized his terrible mistake. It
Is entirely Improbable that he will he
able to restore . anything like the
status quo or to obtain anything like
the same terms as were possible last
week. No one here now knows Just
what General Otis intends to impose
In tho way of terms. Ho has absolute
power in that respect. "Should ho nsk
for Instructions on any point," said
Secretary Alger, "he will be told to
exercise his own discretion."
In this view of the case it will be
seen that no ono here can tell at pres
ent how Otis will act toward Aguln
aldo's application. But the opinion Is
expressed by men hero who know Gen
eral Otis' experience with the Indians
that ho will make the laying down of
arms the condition of dealing with tho
Insurgents, and If that condition-Is
met, of course It will mean a speedy
termination of the rebellion.
