The Princess of Wales will take with her more than 100 dresses, and all of her magnificent jewels, which have been heavily Insured against loss. Wants Easy Sailing. The royal party will cross the ocean on the battleship Renown. The rea son Is the proneness of the Princess of Wales to seasickness. She declined to spend n month on the water on an ordinary liner, and so, at great ex pense, the Renown, which has been built for steadiness in a rough sea. ias been fitted up as a huge steel yacht. In the admiral's quarters of the vessel upholsterers for the past three months have padded and quilt ed the Iron cells Into a series of bou doirs, reception rooms and sleeping rooms. Sleep Next to Armor. The officers quarters on the war hip have been commandeered to make further private rooms for the royal suite, and the officers, during the voyage will have to rest content with accommodations in the gun houses of the warship's huge rifles. The rifles have been removed to pro vide improvised bedrooms and dining rooms. The result has been to meta morphose the grim fighting machine Into a strange effeminate ocean ferry.

While the prince and his wife are In India, they will be the direct cause of an expenditure of an average of $5000 a day in entertaining and trav ellng. While they are thus reveling in riches, there will be perhaps 6,000, 000 people of India stricken by fam Ine, for Indications point to this year being one of the worst in India famine records.

Poole was a collector, too, of books, letters and programmes relating to the stage. He bud a remarkable faculty for matching old paper and could put a corner or a patch on a letter or n playbill so neatly that it could be no ticed only under a magnifying glass. Mr. Poole's famous feat of splitting n magazine page into four leaves or lay ers was brought about by an English lulayer, who showed Mr. Poole a page split in three leaves with the printing on It unmnrred. The American said that he could do all that the Englishman had done, and more, and ufter some experiments produced a page of the Century Magazine split In four leaves. This was taken to London by a book collector, who had gone ubroad to add to his library, and after the page had been the rounds of the clubs there It was sent to Paris and caused the Frenchmen to wonder. Portland Advertiser. THE SUN AND MOON. 1 TAT sick NOW IS THE TIME TO CET YOUR SUPPLY THE PEOPLES WAREHOUSE WHERE IT PAYS TO TRADE Wi )nalnt Folklore Stories Concerning These Luminaries. The most touching of all folklore sto ries may be found in Charles V. Lum- mls' "Pueblo Folklore." It is one of the many myths of the moon and beau tifully conceived. The sun 1b the All- father, the moon the Allmother, ana both shine with equal light in the heav ens. But the Trues, the superior divin ities, find that man, the animals, the flowers, weary of a constant day. They agree to put out the Allfather's, or Bun's, eyes. The Allmother, the moou, offers herself as a sacrifice. "Blind me," she says, "and leave my hus band's eyes." The Trues say, "It U good, woman." They accept the sacrifice and take away one of tho Allmother's eyes; hence the moon Is less brilliant than the sun. The man finds rest at night, and the flowers sleep. In Mrs. Leiber Cohen's translation of Sacher Musoch's "Jewish Tales" there is a variant of the sun and moon story derived from the Talmud. Briefly told, the sun and moon are equally lumi nous. It is the moon who wants, to be more brilliant than the sun. Deity is angered at her demands. Hor light Is lessened. "The moon grew pale. Then God pitied her and gave her the stars for companions." 1m (inindf Tank House Hunted. Fire was discovered this morning I t 8 o clock In the tank house on the Stover property across the track.
