In the dining room it went through the wail, burning a picture. Mr. Fortier was standing at the back door and lost part ef his boot. His son was sitting by the win- dow when the lightning entered, and al- though the eash and glaaa was smashed he was unharmed. A Prediction FolMed.

Napoleon III. one day took It Into his head to consult the oelebrated ohl- romanoleh, Desbarollea, who died the ether day at a very advaaoed age.
