FRIDAY, SOME GOOD YARNS. ces of Admiral Montagu ncerning Royalty. Jthe Hon. Victor Montagu, s| in hus reminiscences just published, some good 'stories of sport nd abroad. A sailor of the } :hool--he served in the Crimean War and helped to blockade Sebasto- has been famous in the social e of the most distinguished enthusiastic members of the Royal Yacht Squadron. Admiral Mon- tagu has had the friendship of several kings, and among the best of his friends was King Edward, the present King, and the German Emperor. His genial anecdotes about them have more than a literary interest. It was at Cowes that he was on closest terms ol friendship with these monarchs, though King Edward had been friends with him since boyhood. He telis an amusing story of how he was commanded to dine with Queen Victoria, at Osborne, one evening at 8.30, and immediately afterwards re- ceived 'a huge envelo with a mas- sive seal from the Hohenzollern, ecom- manding him to dine with the Kaiser He goes on: Reader, put yourself into my flan- nels and jersey for a moment--tired, with double honors and not having the slightest idea which command I was to obey on such # momentous occa- sion He signalled frantically to the royal yacht for the Prince of Wales" advice in this dilemma, but the Prince (af- terwards King Edward) did not re- turn to his yacht until 7.30. ° What made the dilemma worse was that one costume was needed for dinner with the German Emperor and another for the Queen. When the prince answer. ed the signals his advice was to obey Queen, Victoria first and proceed afterwards to the Kaiser. The Ad- miral rushed into tights and long stockings, and drove madly to Os- borne. After dinner the Queen excused him, and he resumed his journey in a fly. My next difficulty to find a place in which w change from tights into full naval uniform." 1 decided to do this in the cab, and implored the driver to go slowly downhill. As everybody knows there is little diffi- | culty in pulling off one's clothes and putting others on in a cab, even in total darkness, but there comes a 'mo- ment when one has to stand up w complete one's toilet, and to stand up in a low fly is no easy task. "Driver, ' just pull up a moment," I said, "and vpen the top of the cab." "It's pour ing with rain, sir," was the answer. "Never mind that," I said. "You get cn twp, wo, and hold your coat over | me." This arrangement answered beautifully, and in due course I ar- rived at the landing, and went of in a steam launch to make my obeisance !

Admiral Montagu tells 'several stor- ies of King Edward's delightful kind- | ness of heart. The admiral suffers from deafness, and was troubled at the thought of this when the King invited him to dine with the Czar ol Russia on the Victoria and Albert. "After dinner on board, the King espied me, and beckoned me to ap- proach, when he said: 'Victor, I am ! going to present you." Bo I merely remarked: 'Oh, sir, this is a great honor, but 1 fail to see how I shall be able to hear wigaé the Emperor bays." He smiled and said: "You are not the first deaf individual the Em- peror has addressed. I will tell him all about you. Do your best.'

Soldier and Sculptor. It is said of Captain Adrian Jones, who has designed the four-horse chariot, weighing upwards of thirty tons, which is to be erected near Hyde Park Corner. London, as a memorial to "Peace," that he is probably the only living sculptor who understands a horse from tail-tip to nostril. As a boy he loved and studied horses, and would have liked to become an artist, but his father had other plans, and' he entered the army. He saw much active service, and was then advised to become a sculpter, having devoted most of his spare time when in the army to painting and sculpture.

MONKEY LAND, : Where Armies of Gibbering Apes Make Life Miserable. If at any time you should happen to be in India, just remember to let | the monkeys alone, for to kill one | would mean to get yourself very ocor- lially disliked by the Brahmans, whose religion forbids them to take the life of any creature. As a result the people of India are overrun by a great many animals i which they can make bug a feeble resist ance, the monkey in particular being a real tyrant The shops of the cities are without doors and windows, and whatever is' offered for sale is exposed to the open air. The monkeys are always at hand watching their opportunity and if the merchant absent himself for a meo- ment, instantly the nimble apes are helping themselves to anything they fancy. On one occasion the streets of Be- nares, the sacred city of India, had become 'so overrun with these impu- dent little plunderers that the mer- chants held a meeting and decided that something must be done. Inas- much as their religion forbade them to kill the monkeys, they decided to banish the pests The streets were surrounded and in- vaded, the monkeys were all captured and placed in cages. Then they were | taken to a large forest at a consider- | able distance from the city and freed in the middle of the trees. The scam- pered into the branches as if they were having a very good time; and there the merchants left. them and returned to their shops, rejoicing that now they could nod in peace. That eveming there was a rare sight in Be nares. Into the streets, just at dusk, there came a greal capering army of apes. They-were the monkeys of Be nares, who had found their way home from the forest into which they had been banished, and, though they must have been very tired from traveling on foot so long a distance, their joy on reaching home again was so grea that they boled like a troop of school children coming home from a picmic. Being town bréd monkeys, they hed not emoyed country life. Next day they were all at their old posts, raid- ing the food shops with renewed and eager appetites and greatly refreshed impudence. The Effects of Arsenic. "You no doubt have observed the lily white complexion of eome women. These women are sacrificing years of their lives for that beautiful ekin b: the use of arsenic," said D. V. Duval, a chemist, of Manchester, Eng. "It is a well-known fact that thou sands of women in all countries of the world use the poison in small quan- tities to bleach their skin. It is an effective means of whitening and clearing the complexion, but the com- plexion given by its use has no per- manency unless the absorption of the drug be continued. "Arsenic, as science has long told us, is an accumulative poison. en one takes it either by preseription for the upbuilding of an appetite or for the bleaching of the skin he does not feel any ill effects for several years. The effect of the drug is bracing and makes a person feel like eating. It also aids the digestion. The average user of the poison takes it in such small quantities that he does not rea lize how much of it will accumulate in his system in the course of four or five years. "Being an accumulative poison it often takes that length of time to see the results of the drug. Then the user may complain of not being able to control his fingers or toes. quently he loses control of his hands and arms. Arsenical poisoning is the result. "Five years ago in Manchester there Sev- eral thousands of persons were strik- en. Several hundred died and the medical profession of England made a thorough investigation of the malady The investiga- their product which was found to con- tain a small quantity of arsenic. This drug, imbibed in small quantities in beer, had gradually accumulated in the bodies of thousands of persons, had impoverished their blood and left a great percentage of them helpless." Too Expensive to Eat. Mr. George Graves, who is appear ing with such success on the variety stage in "Koffo of Bond Street," in London," is an enthusiatsic sports man, and recently had a day's shoot | ing in Norfolk. Missing his train back he endeavored to estch it at' Cam- to the bursting of a tire. In order to appear at the theatre he was com- pelled to charter a special train from the University town. Mr. Graves' re mark, as he alighted from his expen- sive conveyance at Liverpool street and handed his man a brace of ridges, was very characteristic of him, "Get these birds stuffed, they come too high to eat." : Ambassador as Mountaineer, Mr. James B , the British am- at Washi , who was re- cently granted an audietice by the | King, was born in Belfast seventy His father was Bcotéh and Irish. He is credited with speak--or acquire--near- ly every known language. He has talked with African kings at the coun- cils; has banquetted with the Dyaks; has climbed some of the highest mountains in the United States; has stood on the top of Mount Ararst-- the fir4 man since Noah--has been in Russia, in India, and Japan, and knows nearly every part of the British Empire, even to the Fiji Islands. Prevaricator. The word prevaricator is from the Latin and originally meant a strad- dler with distorted or misshapen legs. In the Roman courts of law the ex- | pression was applied 10 one who in a suit was discovered to be in collusion with his opponent to compass some dishonesty. As falsehood was the ne cessary part of such a performance, the word by and by came to have the significance al present attached to 'id There is an ancient saving, femous among men, that thou shomldst not judge fully of a man's life before he dieth, witeiher it should be called blest or ubse- | IN 1898 The London Lancet, after a careful examination of Scott's Emulsion reported that "the preparation fulfills ALL the requirements and presents ALL the conditions of a very satisfactory emulsion. In appearance and consistency it is not unlike cream and under the microscope the fat globules are seen to be of perfectly regular size and uniformly distributed So well -has the oil been emuish fied that even when shaken with water the fat is slow to separate. The taste is decidely unobjectionable and the Emulsion should prove an excellent food as well as a tonic." We believe no other preparation of Cod Liver Oil hai received such weighty commendation and if the same high au- therities were to examine it now they would find it even finer, more digestable, more palatable and more satisfactory in every way; in fact, SCOTT'S EMULSION has so long been the one satisfactory and perfect Emulsion: that it is accepted as the standard by medical practitioners all over the world, by the public and by hundreds of imitators, for it is the one and only Emulsion imitated. The imitations are in name only for no other preparation of Cod Liver Oil is so pure, so perfect and so beneficisl. SCOTT'S EMULSION has become the world's Standard Body-Builder because of the perfect purity of its ingredients, its absolute freedom from ALCOHOL or any other harmful substance and because the results from it are uniform and far greater tham from any other preparation.
