Each Great Stamp of the Realm Only Lasts About Ten Years.

Whenever a new monarch ascends

the throne it becomes necessary to provide e. new Great Beal of Great Bf\_l»HlD. the emblem of sovereignty, which is appended- to the most import- ant clues of public documents, such as writs for summoning Parliament, treaties. and official acts ot state. The G19” 5981. like the new coinage, is struck at _$119 MIM. and is usually made of silver, although there have 3:23 occasions when gold has _been Th_c ,Great §eal of King Edward was

°l 5|lV6l‘. 6 mches in diameter. and °°°t Just °v_er $2.000. ii was uia mi- nute work involved in designing the Great Seal which made it so costly.

Generally speaking, the Great Seal H1555 _f0l’ Bbout ten years, by which time it becomes somewhat worn, the Qcusequence being that the impression is imperfect. No fewer than four Great Beals were made for Queen Victoria, several of them being in use for a considerable time. A new one was made for Har lute Majesty in 1838, after her accession, others being ne- °°SS'1|'Y 111 1860. 1878, and finally in 1900, the last three costing $2,050, $2-550. and $2.000-respectively.

Tho_old Great Beal is one of the

pei'quisitss_of the Lord Chancellor's office, and is handed over to him after being slightly defaced by the reigning monarch.. On the delivery of the new Great_Seal by the Mint, a meeting of the Kn_ig_in Council is summoned, at which it is handed over to the charge of the Lord Chancellor by the King. The old Great Beal then undergoes n pr_ocess_ called_ "demasking." The King simply gives it a gentle blow with a. hammer, _just sudicient to make a slight but distinguishing mark, after which His Majesty presents it to the Lord Chancellor.

The new Great Seal, which in May,

1900. was substituted for the old one that had been in use since 1878, was given to Lord Halsbury, who was then Lord Chancellor, by Queen Victoria. The death of Her Majesty eight months afterwards rendered another Great Seal necessary--the first and only Seal of the late King Edward- and when this was ready, late in 1903, the last Great. Seal of Queen Victoria also fell to Lord Halsbury, after it had been only three and a

half years in use.

- Fishing ln Sydney Harbor. A tenant of most of the shores

around Sydney is the toad-fish, which looks like a toad elongated into a fish, with a tough, leatbery, scale- less skin, and a bloawd body, dark- mottled brown above, and white be- neath. _

It is usually about five inches long,

and _disproportionately broad, but swims very swiftly, and is, for its size, as bold and voracious as the shark.

The toad-fish, which swarm evéry-

where, no sooner sees a bait dropped into the water than they dnrt towards it by dozens, and tight among them- selves for the honor of swallowing your hook, generally taking the pre- caution' to biteoff your line at the sumo time.

This extreme anxiety to be caught

might perhaps be _pardoned were the greedy little wretc es fit to eat, but they are highly poisonous.

As they thus effectually put a stop

t.o angling by biting otf every hoo dropped in the water before any other tisli lind time to look at it., they espe- cially enjoy the benefit of the fishing spear, upon which many hundreds, if not thousands, are frequently impaled ui succession.

This sounds wantonly cmel, but let

no oneipronourice it so who is not well ucquninted with the toad-fish; from those who are, I fear no reproof. Whe_.n speared, they directly inflate their leuthery skins like a. balloon, and eject a. stream of liquid from their mouths, with a. report as if they 'had burst.

If flung again into the water, ho_w-

bver woundod,_tbey _instantly swim about, and begin eating; and should one be n little less active than his fel- lows, they forthwith attack him and eat him up. M_

He was, indeed, the first Labor member to _bo admit- ter to Ministerial distinction; thus the then Prince of Wales invited him to spend the week-end at Saiidring- ham.

CROSS UN FL0l.lDE|| FIELD. ”

Mlsapprehenalons Concerning “Klng'a

' Stone.” Although Flodden was fought close

upon 400 years _ago it is only during the last month that there has been unveiled a monument erected upon the site approximately of the centre of the battlefield, "To the Brave of Both Nations"--Olim Hostes, Nunc Friitres.

Much confusion, writes s correspon-

dent, hus arisen heretofore from the presence of the reputed Bybil's Well with its inscription on Flodden Hill among the trees above Blinkbonny, where it had been placed, or .rather misplaced, by the late Marchioness of Waterford with entire disregunl of his- torical accuracy.

The prevailing misapprehension con-

cerning “King’s Stone,” another sup-

positious site memorial conisfilsting of an unlicwn column, has prob ly been _perpetuated by if it did not originate in Scott's notes to “Marmion/' in which it is alleged to mnrk the spot where James fell. As a matter of fact this was a. very ancient tribal gather- Eng or trysting stone transported from

-mine ilistiince either mecliariicallyoor hy gin;-iul action) and is situated a ut tlireii-quarters of a mile northward from the locality of the final scene of thc biittle.

'l`hc niemoriiil cross, which wus un-

veiled by Sir George Douglas, is the outcome of ii giant. effort by English- uicii iind Scotsinen from both sides of the border. The idea of making the eite near where _the closing tragedy -if the battle to/ok place originated iliree yours ago with the Berwickshire Nuturiilists’ Club. ~

With regard t/o the numbers that

took part in Flodden, although the Scottish army assembled in August on the Borough Moor of Edinburgh ii computed to have numbered in all 100,000, the camp of James on the iiioriiing of September 9 did not con- tniii probably more than 35,000. lint the-se comprised the flower of the Scots' army. The numbers of the two forces which faced one another, though nt first largely in invor of the Scots

after the dramatic disappearance ol Home and Huntly's division of 8,00( to 10,000 men shortly aftei-_ the begin ning of the battle.

The arm mostly used by the Scots

was a keen and sharp spear fifteen feet long. Targets also were carried by them. and when the spears failed they fought. with “great and shnr swords." Flodden was the last field upon which the bows of yew und ‘clothyard shafts were employed by the English.-Westminster Gazette.

The Hen Derby.

It is said that the crowning triumph

of Sir John Astley, that inventor ol absurd contests, whose forte it was to arrange races between animals 'which iiiiture apparently had madefmost uu- suituble for the purpose, was’ the' in- stitution of- the'only'races_ that ever took place between chickens.

The story isthnt the idea came to

Sir John dui-ing e. visit to a friend who kept. ii large number of hens. He noticed how rapidly the chickens used to si-urry to their mother when food was thrown to her. This furnished the ingenious Sir John with a clever notion, and at mess, he then being quartered at Windsor, he accordingly unfolded to his brother officers his pliins for n great chicken race.

He bought from a farmer a hen and

n brood of chickens. Each officer wus to choose n chicken and mark it with ii ribbon, so that he could easily re- cognize it. The chickens were to bo placed about fifty yards away from their mother, and whichever of tlieiii reairlieii her first. in answer to lier ciicklo when food was tbrownto her wiis to be ndjudged the winner.

And so this riduculous “hen Derby"

came off in the barracks at Windsor, and was witnessed by nearly the whole brigade of guards, who traveled down from London especially to seo it.

The race was such ii success that it

wus arranged to repeat it the follow- ing week. It might possibly hnve be- come a regular institution and n rac- ing stable of chickens might have been added to the attractions at Windsor had not St. John’s chicken won on each occasion with such ensc its to cause suspicion in the minds of his competitors. Indeed, it was found, it is said, that in both races Sir John had selected a. stury young cockcrel who was much too speedy for his sis- ters. When victory was a certainty for one particular competitor the contest, of course, lost interest, and so the chicken ruces at Windsor came to ii sudden end.

' Britain’s Youngest K.C.

One of the most brilliant men of

the day in England is Mr. 1". E. Suiitli. who defended Ethel Lenovo at the Old Bailey. This youthful K.C.-he is the young-

est King’s Counsel England has-first onine into general public prominence by a brilliant defence at the Old Bail- (-,y iii i902, when he appeared for Gou- die, the Liverpool bunk forger. Later, lhc entered Parliament, and created il sensation by his maiden speech, in 1006. It is almost. certain flint, when the Unionists return to power, Mr. F. E. Smith will be in the Cabinet.

On one occasion, at the opening of

And his extraordinary energy enables him to put in n. long iliiy in the courts and a long night in the House, and still look fresh and fit

Official Ignorance.

Ono of tho best of the many stories

of liiiglish official ignorance of the coloiiics is recalled by P. A. Silburn in "'l‘lie Governance of Empire." Lord Palmerston was forming a new Minis- try and in a preliminary council was nrriinging its composition. I-_Ie had filled up all the portfolios with _the exception of the Co onial Office. First one nnmd and then another was sug- 'gested and thrown aside. At last he

T he World's Greatest

Musical Invention _i the Player-Piano

Call in to-day.

The player-piano is one of the most marvelous and in-

structive of all inventions of man. It enables any ordinary mus- ician .to preform with the skill and technical precision of a Fader- ewski, Lizt or Rubinstein.

_ _ Even the riches and glory of Croesus and Solomon could not command an instrument or a collection of instruments that the player-piano brings to the average home. The player-piano is one of the most wonderful achievements of a wonderful age.

The player-piano is indispensible in every home of culture.

It plays compositions of the masters as only they could play them, and everything that can ble played on an ordinary piano is rendered perfectly by the player-piano. Then' it can be used as an ordinary piano also. . _

We would like to show you our player-pianos. It will be

an entertaining and instructive treat for you-and a pleasure for us.
