In Bed for Sixty-two Years. Miss Chloe Lankton died in New Hartford last week in her 78th year. She was born in 1812. At the age of 16 she was attacked by it lnziludy which has kept her in bed ever since. She has lived 62 years in bed. The sick room was cosin arranged, so that she could help herself to many things. A- bout 30 years ago the story of her life was written and published in The Sun- day School Union. When her parents died she was cared for by friends. She never complained, and was ever cheer. ful and patient. One of her great trou- bles was the diliiculty of having her bed made. The late John C. Smith, of New Haven, invented a little derrick. The patient Would have a strong cun- vas placed beneath her, which was at- tached by a simple tackle to the derrick, and she would be swung oil from the bed as it‘ in a hammock. Mr. Smith redliot baked potato from the can, for which they paid a penny each, and pro- cccded on their way. Joe had recog- nised his customers, and on the next day his “' tater can ” was decorated with a flaring gilt sign, showing the three feathers and the legend : “ Purvcyor to H. R. H. the Prince of Wales.” He stationed his apparatus opposite Marl- borough House, to the Prince's mingled amusement and dismay. The Prince sent an equerry to order him away, but Joe refused to budge, and kept on doing a rushing business. At last the Prince ordered Sir Francis Knollys to buy him off, and the feathers were removed.â€" London Special. Archbishop Fabre, of Montreal, has instructed his clergy to pray that the influenza scourge may be taken-away.

At a recent sale of American-bred merino sheep. at Sydney, the great price of 455gs. was paid for a ram, and the average for sixty-seven rams was £103 123, and £107 188 4d for eighteen ewes.
