SUPERSTITIONS OF KINGS I I Nearly every ruler has his pet superstitions. For examp'e. King Kdward is said to have hall a fixed belic-t that misfortune wouid happen to him if two knives were allowed to lie on the table before him at the eame time Xor would he allow any gues-t to be served with more th-an one knife at a time. As soon as a knife had been used it was re-j>la< ed, but two IU;b' not lie upon the table together. The German l-.mperor has a still more s-trange superstition. He wears a ring which ha-, descended to him through the line of the I IIoheiiKoUerus and which has always been worn by the head ot the house. It is saiel that during the reign of John of Bradenburg a toad was observed to hop into the bedroom and disgorge a stone. The event was con- sidered to be of great significance, and the stone was mounted in a ring and has been worn in the wal described ever since. He has abo another lucky ring whieh one of hi- ancestors took from a Saracen chief during the Ci u&advss. but the ring originally hore a. text from the Koran, and this has been removed and a .Lat,in croas engraved in its place. Perhaps its magical properties took I flight at the time.

A certain Parliamentary candidate was holding a meeting in Anld Reekie at which the heckler was much in evidence, and the candidate failed to give a single answer which wa judged to be satisfa-ctory by the audieucs. ) Towards the end of the meeting an elector rose and quietly asked.

I For Women Folk. 0 -1 HOMELY H4NTS AND DAINTY DISHES I When plates or di^hes are m'ynt after baking, they ca.n be c-asily clewned by rubbing with a damp clorth dipped in ealt. "When tinned fruit- ie bought it Sfho.uld he turned out in.to a saucepan, about six or seven lumps of 1"1!ga.r and a teticupful of water added, and allowed to gently simmer for five minutes. This double* the flavour of the fruit, -ind does away with the raw taste. TTndoubted !v the best as1 well as the obeap- est weed killer for- paths is "rough ealt," obtainable at any large grocer's shop. It j should be broken up and sprinkled on the pathts as evenly ae possible. It gradually die-solves, and kills all weeds as it does fo. Onions An excellent way before peeling onions is first put them into a pan. pour boiijng water over them the water must b-e quite boiling), and let them titay in the water for about five minutes. Then take out and spread on to a tray, when the -skins come otf quite easily, and do not affect the eyes in any way. Excellent Hairwash j Dissolve loz. of quillia bark in a handbasin of hot water, when a lovely soapy lather is at once obtained by the natural saponio properties of the bark. This cleanses and beautifies the hair in a delightful way. The cost is trifling, ajid the bark can be bought at any drug stores. Once tried, always used. To Prepare Sour Herrings lake six Dutch picKied herrings, clean them out and remove the heads, put them in cold water to soak for a couple of hours. Put thean in a jar 1:1;18'-> or stone) and sprinkle with peppercorns and cloves-, about- half a teaspoonful together, the:i cut two medium- sized onions in slices, also one leinori (without the Tind), and lay these IJ.e.t;weün the herrings; then place six hay Leaves at the top and pour over the whole sufficient white lor brown if preferred; vinegar to cover them. Cover the jar tightly and let them stand for two or three days, when they will be ready to eat. These will keep a couple cf week- Facts About Salt It is wonderful the many things that salt may be m-.ed for. It is a capital remedy for rheumatism if taken regularly in a glass of cold water before breakfast. A nigh tly gargle oF salt and water strengthens a weak throat, and keeps off bronchitis. When eaten with nuts it aid, digestion, and it will relieve heart- burn if taken in cold water. It is also a. good thing for bums, and tor s-tingF of bees; if a thtick piaster of wet salt is tied on the place it will take the pain out. If the eh im- neyt" on fire throw salt on the fire. If there has been anything burnt in tbe oven thro.w salt in. and it will take all smell away. When soot dro-ps on the carpet throw salt on it, and then sweep it lip. If it is rubbed on silver, china, or earthenware it will take, tain." of tea or burns off. If applied at once it will tack,(> ont ink stains. In washing coloured clothes, if a handful is put in the water the colour will neither run nor fade. If u"erl in froety weather on doorsteps it fills the plaice of ashes, and i- much cleaner. Among it:=: many uses it will kill weeds on gravel walks.

LITTLE FLUCTUATION IN QUOTATIONS I [FROM THE EXCHANGE TELEGRAPH C0UPAKT.1 j LONDON, AVednesday. There has Iicen no increase in the volume of trading in Rubber Shares, business again being confined within narrow limits, while tliere was, consequently, very little fiuciua- tion in quotations. At the opening the tone was fairly steady, but subsequently prices dropped off all round, all the leaders being on offer. The tone continued dull until near the close, when there was a slight rally from the worst points, but the majority of the movements were in the downward direction, Linggis were finally 2s 3d down at 64-s, after touching 63s Set. and both Sumatra. Paras and United Sumatras were 9d down. Yallambrosa., were offered, and, although closing above the worst, show a loss of Is 9d. Highland- were marked Å lower without much business pass- ing, but Asia-tics wk-re steady, with buyers at Si. Ghristenvilles were freely dealt in when it became known that the committee of the Stock Excliailge had granted a special settle- ment, and these shares, which were almost unsaleable at one time, left off buyers at Is <ii.ount. Rubber Trusts fell away to 33 prem., and Rubber- Share Trusts eased off to 5 prem., but Eastern International Trusts were a. steady market at 24 prem. Anglo- Malays were 6d lower at 31s 6d, after being offered at 31s 3d. United Sirdangs were a good market at 7 11-16, but Bukit Rajahs fell back to 21. Krubongs were weak at J prem. Ceylon Timber and Rubber moved UiI to 2 13-16 bid on rumours of splitting of the shares, and Mine, Rubber, and General Trusts were a good market at 3-16 prem. Crude Rubbers maintained a firm tone at 31 prem.. and Doolgallas hardened up to par.

OIL BUSINESS QUIET I No Movement of Particular- Interest [FROM THE EXCHANGE TELEGRAPH COMPANY.] LONDON, Wednesday. I Bushier. in Oil Shares wason-atiextremely small scalc, the market remaining quiet throughout the day. with practically no movement of particular interest. The only redeeming feature was tlie way prices held their own. considering that dealings wco 1 educed to such narrow limits. Bakus opened at 5" 3d, but subsequently eased off and closed at 5. 611. Shell Transports were scarcely mentioned, and remained unaltered at 97s. A small business was done in Btir- niah's without having any effect upon the quotation, while Spies fell off to 29:; 3d. Lobitos were a trifle easier at 32s 6d, while Ksyp-tian Oil Trusts ieli The Maikop Group leceivecl little attention, but the tone was steady. Anglos were inquired for, and har- dened up to 1 1-16 prem., but Trusts were l dull lit 1 13-16, while others remained unaltered. Kern Rivers were easier at Is 6d prem., and Oil Trusts were also a trifle oil at 3d prem. Bibi Hybats were weak at 4s 6d. and Orans gofive way to 4 prem.

1 Bowling Tournament I. NOVICE'S TRIUMPH. English International Beaten The heavy rain that had fallen during the night made the green very heavy and sluggish for the fourth day's play on Wed- nesday in the Welsh Singles Open Bowling Championship at Dinas Powjs, and this factor was the main cause of some surprising results, A. Jones, a well-known English bowler, who has gained highest honours, and John Pollock, the well-known Cardiff crack. both suffering defeat a-t the hands of com- 1 parative novices at the game. To-day (Thursday) play starts at, 2.30, when all Igames to the section finals will be decided The referee for the da.y was Mr. R. Graham, Dina, Powis The English crack, Carrutbers. again gvaye a fine exposition, and though his opponent, Lang, sent down really excellent woods, he could only count on six heads out of -,bel eighteen the game ran to losing by 1-9 Oarruthers got his green a.iter three nds, and thereafter was always a winner, laying either two or three on nearly every head. The JSTewportonian had very hard luck on numerous occasions, his 'woods, perfect in green and length, just missing the point. The defeat of A. Jones by R. Jones, a. I) in as Powis novice, proved t.he surprise of the meeting so far as it has gone. The former is an English international and an old tourna- ment player. He has been in the money at t,he grea<t Scottish tournament at Moffat, while he has also been runner-up to Sned- don, the Scottish. international, in a Crystal Palace tournament. The local man in the early stages established a lead, counting on four out of six head,. The Englishman then got in and levelled the tecores on the ninth head, but the local man agein took the .i.erJ,.f!. his opponent seemingly being unable to find his green. At the lifle-entth head R. Jones led by 11-8, but helped a lie of 3, on the twentieth head A. Jones led by 15-14. Wit.h further shots of 1-2-2 the Englishman ran to 20—15, but then again fell clean off his game, and allowed the Dinas Powis man to count out on the next three beads with 1—3—2. The Dines Powis man's downfall. however, came in the next round, the holder, J. T. She-lion, bea-ting him in a game of ten heads by 21—0 Later in the day another surprise was provided by the defeat of John Pollock, 'S.ho won the event two years ago His conqueror, J, Rees, is a member of the Pen<M-t,n C1 u.o, Ja, nd only took up t.he game last se'as)n Throughout the tournament he has pta?ed an unorthodox game, but has pi aye 1 it with success Before meeting the Cardiff crack he had disposed of two strong men in John Williams, of the Mackintosh Club, and J. E. Fletcher, of Victoria- Park. When he und Pollock went down the rink had not fully recovered from the rain that had fallen during the night, and it was inclined to run a trifle heavy, a factor that was all against the Cardiff man. Rees opened in startling fashion, laying three on the first head, and following it with a couple on the return. The third head ialv Pollock laying the shot. hut Rees drove, and taking the jack, counted all four in. Pol-look counted for the fins-t time on the fifth head, the scores here reading 10-1 against him. In succeeding play Rees continued to miintain 111-s lead, th-e game progressing as folicrws.- Rees. Pollock. I Twelfth head 15 4 fifteenth head. 18 6 On the sixteenth head Pollock drew three lovely shots, and this proved to be his last counting, Rees winning two heads later. One of the best contests of the day was that between Scott and Atkinson, the Cardiff green player beating t,he Victoria Park man after a gruelling ga-me Lasting 28 heads by a shot. Both men played a lovely drawing game, and, though Scott at the tenth head led by 10-5, Atkinson got on level terms three heads later, and thereafter each man led in turn. At the fifteenth head the scores were level with 11 all. Five heads later Atkinson held the advantage with 16—13. Two heads later Scott got a couple in, and he followed this with a nice lay of three, and assumed the lead with 18 against 17. Each then got a single, and the game was called 19-18 and then 20-19 in favour of Scott. On the final head Atkinson drew to six inches of the jack, but Scott got in a lovely third wood, and Atkinson failed to cut him out with his last wood. The Weston bowler, Dauncey, played two fine games, but after beating Dr. Coventry he lost to Greenaway, the Newport, man winning by a couple of shots after playing an uphill game all through. Ae was the case on the two previous days, Pillans, the Scotsman, was again the centre of attraction. His opponent on Wednesday was Councillor John .Wander. Though opposed to such a crack, the Cardiff man played a gTeat drawing game, frequently having Pilla-n,« in diffi- culty. The holder, J. F. Shelton, further improved his position by accounting for F. Stableford in his section semi-final by 21-7, whilst two Mackintosh bowlers also. gained wine during the day, F. W. Thomas heating H. P. Jones by 21-8. but his club-mate, John Thomas, had a sterner fight, only beating Evan Lloyd by a shot. Results;- SECTION A. THIRD ROUND. R. Graham (Dinas Powis) beat R.

r Welsh Rifle Meeting I NEWBRIDGE MAN WINS.'CHAMPIONSHIP I The final stage of the Welsh Miniature Rifle Meeting began at Chepetow on Wednes- day morning. Unfortunately, the weather had undergone a complete change, and xain fell at intervals. Notwithstanding this, extra- ordinary shooting was made at the 100 yarde range. E. P. Morgan putting on a very fine 99 out of a possible 100. He wa-s followed by H J. Barnard. Newbridge, who succeeded in scoring 99 and 98 in his two shoots at the 100 yards Tange for the championship. He followed this up with 97 at the 25 yards range, and the excitement was intense, a-s it was seen he had a very line chance of beat- ing Plater. the hope of England." who had an ag-gregate of 389. Quite ooolly, Bernard went 10 the 50 yards range and scored 98. and thus created another record by scoring 1392 out. of a possible 400 for the champion- ship. Only Butson and D. J. Griffiths (last year's champion) now had any chance of robbing Barnard of the honour. Unfor- tunately, Griflith,s rifle" leaded," and this was sufficient to put- him out of count. With a good score (98) at 25 yards, many still favoured Butsan's chance, but his proepeot-s were blighted when he only scored 95 at 50 yards range and 94 at the 100 yards range in the second tit age. The afternoon was given up to shooting off a big number of ties. The English visitors warmly complimented the officials on the manner in which the meeting had passed off, and expressed 'the opinion that miniature rifle shooting in South Wales is of a higher standard than in any other part of the world.

I A NEW PREPARATION WHICH EVERY- ONE WILL NEED SOONER OR LATER. Almost everybody's digestion is disordered more or less, and the commonest thing they I do for it is to take some one of the many so-called blood purifiers, which, in many cases, are merely strong cathartics. Such things are not needed. If the organs are in a clogged condition, they need only a little help and they will right themselves. Cathartics irritate the sensitive linings of the stomach I and bowels, and often do more harm than good. Purging is not what is needed. The thing to do is to put the food in condition to be I readily digested and assimilated. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this perfectly. They partly digest what is eaten and give the stomach just the help it needs. They stimulate the secretion and excretion of the digestive fluids, and relieve the congested I condition of the glands and membranes. They put the whole distive system in condition to do its work. When that is done you need take no more tablets, unless you eat what does not agree with you. Then take one or I two tablets, give them needed help, and you will have no trouble. It is a common-sense medicine and a common sense treatment, and it will cure every time. Not )nly cure the disease, be: I¡ cure the cause. Goes about it in a perfectly sensible and scientific way. To End out just how much Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will help you, go to your chemist and purchase I a I/Iii 2/9, or 4/6 box; or if you will send I us your name and address we will send vou a trial package free.
