A BIRD OF LIGHT.
Th# Arctic Teen Shuns the Night by
Flights From Pole to Pols.
It used to lie thought that the golden 1
plover bore ofl the palm for length of
flight between summer and winter
homes, but an article In the National
Geographic Magazine awards that dis
tinction to the arctic tern. This bird
breeds as far north as It can fiud any
thing stable on which to construct Its
vest. It has been found within seven \
and a half degrees of the pole Itself.
And that nest was found surrounded
by a wall of newly fallen snow, which
the mother bird had carefully scooped
out from round her chick.
The tern arrives in the far north
about .lune 15 and leaves again for the
south toward the last of August, when ?
the young are able to tly strongly. Two
or three months later the birds are to ^
be found skirting the edge of the aut- |
arctic continent. II.mihi miles away.
What their track Is over that vast
space no one yet knows A few indi- ,
vlduals are occasionally -ecu along the I
New Knglantl or Island roust
in the fall, lint the of thousands \
and thousands of the e *::e ?..?frioiis birds
which alternate l'i?.ui pole (,i pole have j
never been met by ,ny tr.dued observ- j
er competent to le.ini their preferred !
path and their time s-?u*;!isle. They
must travel af least I miles each
day? apart from their lli-rltis In search
or In pursuit of foi.d to carry them
within teu or twelve weeks from one
end of the world to the otlfer
The arctic terns enjoy more hours
of sunlight than any other creatures
on the globe. The sun never seta dur
ing their stify at their northern nest
ing grounds, and during their stay in '
the south they -have two months of J
continuous sunlight and practical day- !
light for two months more. The birds >
have twenty-four hours of daylight for
between six and eight months of the
year.
FORESAW HER DOOM.
Warnings of Her Tragic Fate That !
Came to Empress Elizabeth.
In "My Roynl Clienis" M. Paoli. the j
famous French detective, writing of j
the unfortunate Empress Elizabeth of |
Austria, who was so foully murdered I
in Geneva !n IS'.IH. says that two j
strange incidents Incline one to the !
belief that the empress received a pre j
sentiment of her traffic end
"On the eve of her departure for j
Geneva she asked Mr Barker to read j
her a few chapters of a book by Mir |
ion Crawford, entitled 'Corleone.' iu j
which the author describes the detest j
able customs of the Sicilian Mafia j
While the empress was listening to
the harrowing story a raven, attracted
by the scent of some fruit which she
was or. ting, came and circled round
her. Greatly impressed. she tried to
drive it off. but in vain, for it con
stantly returned, filling the echoes with
its mournful croakings Then she rap
idly walked away, for she knew that
ravens are harbingers of death when
their ill om<*iert wings persist in flap |
ping round a living person.
"Again, a lady In waiting told me
that on the morning of that day she
went into the empress' room, as usual,
to ask how she had slept and found
her imperial mistress looking pale and
sad.
'??I have had a strange experience,
said Elizabeth. 1 was awakened in
the middle of the night by the bright
moonbeams which tilled my room, for
the servants had forgotten to draw the
blinds. I could see the mrfim from my
bed. and it seemed to have the face
of a woman weeping. 1 don't know
if it is a presentiment, but I have an
idea I shall meet with misfortune.' "
And it was a few hours later that
Lucchint killed her with a three cor
nered file clumsily fitted to a wooden
handle.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BF CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
Ttere is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
linflamed oondltlon of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube Is Inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or Imper
fect hearing, and when It is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and un
eiss the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
mal condition, hearing will be de
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
ere caused by Catarrh, which is noth
lug but an Inflamed condition, of the
mucous surfaces.
We will g{?e One Hundred Dollars

Catarrh) that cannot t*s cured by.
