Ridley write# to Bos­ ton Herald, Tills is the story told me about 1846: My grandfather wns captain of a schooner that went to Grand Banka fishing, They had a man aboard that' was tormented, so they say. by a witch. He would lie in his berth hours at 4 time insensible, When he recovered he told them the witch had turned, him Into a horse and rode him around on the Sable Island. His arms war# black and blue where she bad kicked him when be attempted to kite her. When be was told to pump a pail of water from the cask, It would t>e salt and rough. The next one pumped by another crew wonld be all right. While stirring up dough in the galley the bowl of the spoon would drop off and a twin would appear In the handle. Hi* was annoyed so much that his health failed and he was sent to the. galley to do what he could. It has been said that you could only Shoot a witch with silver, so my Fraud- father took his'silver sleeve, buttons end loaded the gnq and told, the man to.shoot the-witch when she appeared again; One day they heard, the re­ port of the gun and rushed to tb* cabin to. find out the cause. The man lay insensible on the floor, fnd there was a spot of warm blood on the shins. He was never, troubled after that Me was asked the reason of his be­ ing troubled* but he did not know. He said he lived on Cape Cod, and one day he wad traveling along, the road 'and called at a house. There waa po onp m> but a goat wp# lying on the -hearth. There was a pan of dough­ nuts to a pan. He took a few and passed on.. He said when she took him’ and rode, him around Sable island she twitted him of stealing, the dough­ nuts, That was as near as he could see about It, From about 1800 for a long time my grandfather was pilot, in Boston har­ bor and a man of Intelligence, and although f wm# small I fully believed that he believed the story he toM me He gave mC the gun -that Urn witch was shot with..

One of the revolutionary discoveries of the last few-years.Is the presence In pur food of certain substance# that in minutequantity are essential- to life and health. Men, pigs, fowls and rats develop beriberi on an exclusive diet of ripe that has been poUshed, hut are cured by a very small amount of watery Or alcoholic extract of tbe rice-polishings. In a paper to Liver­ pool chemists, Prof. W, Ranetdeu lately mentioned that thl# 0 anU-hsri- berl vltamlne” Is now proven to be neither.protein, fat, carbohydrate, nor other previously known constituent of plant* or animals. Hr exists- In suffi­ cient proportion in most foodstuff#, but Is absent from white flour, pol­ ished rice and arrowroot, and probtbly also from corn-flour, sago and tapioca, *The absence o f another, vitamins, which may be also Indispensable to man, haS been shown by other re­ searches to be a cause of acre eyes and arrested growth In rats and mice. It exists in quantity in yolk o f egg, cod-liver oil, most animal fats, milk, cheese, green leaves, soya beans, mil­ let and flaxseed, bnt Is absent from Iard,\aud alt vegetable oils. „ A third vitamine is indicated, its lack being chtefly responsible for scurvy. It Is present in all fresh vegetables, fruit and meat, but lacking in dried vegeta­ bles and dried *eed& . The Edward Wren Co, Mail That Is Put Ahead,* “ "It“Was not expected, probably, when the United States parcel post system was established, that It would, bo pos­ sible, to a few years, to Stick a stamp 'on a day-old chick, or on a hooey bee, and have It delivered by Unde Sam, This is not, of course, exactly a lit eral possibility even yet, for chicken# and bees must be properly boxed and the stamp affixed to the container; but the opening of the ma|l# to these liv­ ing commodities'has proved a great convenience and has facilitated too work of beekeepers and poultrymen alike, 'Few people realize how largo is the number of bees shipped each spring from the southern to the north­ ern states, and even to Canada.
