In a strict sense you do not
catch cold, but rather the qold
catches you.
It catches you when your vi
tality is low, when the circula

draughts of cold air, etc.
The right thing to do Is to re

in the start and stop it before
it has you firmly caught.

If the Iking has escaped he owes
his life to the valor of his body guard.

was caused by a woman, Mile. Caby.de
Lisa, a French dancer, according to
a story told by high governmcit offi

Advises from the German embassy
are to the effect that the king flaunted
the woman in the face of his followers,
heaped Jewels worth fully a million so
lavishly as to almost drain tha Por
tuguese treasury. According to the
story he made no pretensions of con
cealing his'" relations with her. He
lodged her at the palace an. i she ac
companied him everywhere. King Man

time in the underworld whr it is
said, he met LlJa according io reports.

f OLD FAMILIES.
In Europe and In the Orient That
. Are Really Ancient
In Great Britain and on the conti
nent those families pride themselves
that count their ancestry through ten
generations, but their claims to really
ancient lineage seem insignificant
when compared . with those of certain
houses in the orient . ' , !
We read that the oldest family In
Great Britain, the Mar family In Scot
land, may trace its pedigree 'to 1093.
Then, too. we have the Campbells of
Argyll, whose date is put down at 1180.
The Grosvenor family, that of the
Duke of Westminster, refers its origin
to the same year that, the Conqueror
"came over"-l. e.. 10M. The Austrian
house of Uapsburg ,goes back farther
than that. Its date being 932. wBlle
the Bourbons proudly mention 8G4 as
the date of their origin. ,
But none of them is to be mentioned
in the same breath with the emperor
of Japan, whose office bos been filled
by members of bis family for a period
of over. 2.500 years, the present ruler
holm? the one hundred and twentv sec
ond in the line. The first emperor of
Japan sat on the throne about the time
when Nebuchadnezzar was flourishing
-that is. in 630 B. C.
Another oriental branch, the descend
ants of Mohammed, presents claims not
to be dismissed. The nronhet was born
In 670, and a list of his descendants
nas been carefully retained, being duly
set forth in a volume kept in Mecca.
Little or no doubt exists of the authen
ticity of the long list of names of Mo.
hammed's descendants as registered In
this sacred book.-Hsrper'a Weekly.
Government Land".
The land owned by the United States
government exceeds in area the region
east of the Alleghanles.' enough to
make two states like Texas, twelve
like New York and fifty like Massachu
setts. Rltd Antiquities. .
Striking resemblance has been point-

Governed by Ancestors.
The Gambos of South Africa believe
that their ancestors, whose wishes are
interpreted by the sorcerers, ; direct
and govern every act of the people.
They find auguries, too, in the flight of
and the eagle, the writhing of the ser
pents, the timidity of the molej the
changing colors of the chameleon, the
barking pt actions of dogs and foxes
and even the circumstance of a pest
of files. If a native shudders Involun
tarily the act is regarded as a sign
tnat some 'misfortune Is about to b
f all him. ' ;. v; ;
Wheat. ,
. Wheat Is the chief basis of the na
tional nourishment of Englishmen,
Frenchmen, Spaniards, south Italians
in north Italy maize takes precedence
and Hungarians, and It holds complete
supremacy In North America and Aus
tralia.' In German speaking central
Europe wheat has a large consump
tion, but not to the xtent that it ls
used in the lands named. The prlnci-i
pal food is rye bread, not because of!
the poverty of the people, but because!
its taste is better liked. In Russia rye
bread has a decided lead. !
A Question of Identity, ' i
A question In a recent examination!
on "The Merchant of Venice" was:
"Give three reasons why Shylockj
bated Antonio." '
One little girl wrote as one of berl
reasons: . I
"Shy lock hated Antonio because hei
was a Republk-an." ' ' : ,
1 he teacher was puzzled. Where!
could the child have got that idea? I
Then she remembered that Shy lock I
once said of Antonio, "How like al
