Curious Royal Privileges.

A King has man; privileges, but th» oddest of all King Edward's m Borely th« right he has by statute to the hem of eve y whale caught on the coasts <f hit kingdom. The tail is to go to tjpaita Alexandra, the oljeot of this division to guarantee th»6 the Qaeen's «fardrob« shfctll be furnished with whalebone. King Edward is not likely to receive many whales, however lotig he may reign, bnt there are many perquisites of thp. Crown which are not so rare ds whales 'tttKiig l*nd. The King !s entitled, for Instance, to every stargeon broiaght to land m th« United Kingdom ;oae of them, catight la the Thames, was on the table of Qaem Victoria's wedding bar,qnet. The King fhonjd receive, too, every year from divers persons a tablecloth worth. tfa*e« shillings, two white dftyes, two. white haree,, a catapult, a popn^l cf cujnln seed, a horse 9nd haiter, « pair of scarlet hope, a curryecmb, a pair of tongs. » crossbar, » coat of grey far, a nightcap, » falcon, a lance worth two shillings, and a diver needle from his tailor.

Irate Lady Guardian Dog-Whips a Major.

Mrs Morarv, a member of the Lew ishara Board of Guardians, dog-whipped Major West, a military gentliman, and a member also, at the close ef the meeting on March 4th last.

At a recent meeting Mrs Mor*n had questioned the right of Major West to his military title, and had repeatedly called him 'Mieter' instead of 'Major*. This had caused some friction between the pair, r and Major Wesjt jocularly offered to produce his ccnoiniesion if Mrs Moran would produce her marriage certificate—a condition she considered insulting. At the meeting Mrs Moran was forcibly removed from *the room by the chairman's order, but was allowed to return upon promising to behave. She was speaking subsequently on a question of contracts when the chair man ruled her out of order. She refused to obey the chairman's ruling and the meeting broke up m disorder. As the members were leaving the room Mrs Moran produced a dog-whip, aud rushing up to Major West she struck him on the head with the laeb, exclaiming, "You cur ! Scoundrel, this is my revengt?' The whip was wrested from her hands, and once more she was removed from the room. A policeman was sent \ for, but Major West refused to give her into custody The majar took the blows calmly, smoking a cigar the while, The othpr Guardians were uofeeiing enough to laugh at the incident.

A Unionist Ahd Old Aqb Pinsiohs —Sir Fortesque Flannery, TJnioui«t representative of the Shipley Divison of Yorkshire, feas laid before Parlia ment a Bill embodying his Ichfme of old age pensions. It is proposed to confer pensions of not less than fife Bhilliugs per week on persons of 65 years and upwards. They must, how ever, be persons of good character and have given evidence of thrift m their past lives by belonging to Benefit Societies or Friendly Societies for • substantial period. With:these {invita tions it is estimated that the plan will entail an expenditure of £2,000,000 per annum. The Bill is backed by the Hon L W Rothechild, Fir H Vincent, Kr 3 Rankfn, Mr W R Bonefield, Mr W, Carlisle, and other members.

Striking a Gold Mine.

I The surprise of a man who sinks fthofe to ' make a well and strikes a gold mine is no I doubt a pleasant one.

She writes :— '"About six weeks ago"1 first tried Dr i Morse's Indian Root Pills. I nru«"> Btate I that I found them a most superior medicine. IMy complaint was peculiar to women, ! langour, Debility, and Bilious attacks, ! which combined to make my day# perfectly I wretched. Indeed, there were spells when I ! used to wonder m the morning how I could j manage to set about my household dobies ; i but they had to be done, and I would I struggle through the day when I should have ) been m bed. You oan imagine by all thil how agreeably surprised I was to get inch * valuable medicine, especially after this failures of bo many others. Dr Morse't Indian Root Pills have made me vigorous i and well. I noticed the change from the ) first dose. I have since reoommended them to many of my friends, and they have given perfect satisfaction m every oases" Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills positively «ure Biliousness, Indigestion, Constipation, Dys pepsia, Pilca, Pimples, and Blotches.
