A speclalist in dlpsomania was talk- ing about the cunning with which dip- somanlaes in continement will obtaln liquor. “A certaln noted but intemperate ac- | tor,” said Dr. Gresham James, “was once locked up by his manager in or- der that he might not spoil the even- ing performance by overdrinking, His confinement was close. Windows, doors—everything was locked and bar- red. “But the actor beckoned to a man in the street, showed a greenback and bawled to him through the closed win- dow to go and buy a bottle of brandy and a clay pipe. “When the man returned with these purchases the actor called: “‘Stick the pipe stem in through the keyhole.” “This was done. “‘Now,’ said the actor, ‘pour the brandy carefully into the bowl. “As the fluld fell into the bowl the actor sucked it up, and when his man- ager came to release him that even- ing he lay in a corner quite glorious- ly drunk.’’— Pittsburg Chronicle-Tele- graph. The Way It Read. The editor of a little paper was in the habit of cheering up his subscrib- ers dally with a column of short perti- nent comments on their town, their habits and themselves. The depart- ment was the most popular thing in the paper. The editor, as he saw it growing in tavor, gradually allowed himself a wider latitude in his remarks until the town passed much of its time conjec- turing “what he’d das’t to say next.” On a hot day when the simoom whis- tled gayly up the street of the town, depositing everywhere its burden of sand, the editor brought forth this gem of thought: “All the windows along Main street need washing badly.” The next morning he was waited on by a platoon of indignant citizens, who confronted him with the paragraph in questlon fresh from the hands of the compositor and informed him fiercely that he had gone too far. After a hasty and horrified glance he admitted that he had. It now read: “All the widows along Main street need washing badly.”—Everybody's. His Mother’s Ruse Failed. A Kansas City professional man, ‘who is prominently identified with Mis- souri politics, tells the following story on himself: “My folks moved from Indiana to Johnson county, Mo., when I was six years of age. We settled on a farm near Holden. The first Sunday we were there and while the family was preparing for Sunday school it was discovered that I did not have any shoes. My mother, realizing that ‘folks ‘would talk’ if one of her children made his first public appearance barefooted, suggested that I have a cloth tied around one foot to create the impres- sion that I was unable to wear shoes because of a sore foot. So the rag was tied on me. Everything went along smoothly, and I learned all about bears eating the bad children up when I heard a snicker from a boy I after- ward licked. He was pointing to my right foot. I glanced downward. “The rag had slipped off, and my mother's ruse was exposed.”—Kansas City Star. Speechléss, but Graphic. A knowledge of the art of drawing s sometimes very useful. A well known caricaturist had done himself very well at a dance and was being put into a cab by some friends, none of whom knew where he lived, and he himself was more or less speechless. At last, however, he managed to extri- cate a pencil and a sheet of paper from his pocket and drew a sketch, which, when finished, he handed out of the cab. The drawing was a clear sketch of a well known church steeple In Langham place. They all recog- nized it, and, with shrieks of laughter, handed it to the cabman, who re- marked: “All right, I knows {t—Langham street,”” and he drove off.—Illustrated Bits. The Stage Doorkeeper. It is one of the traditions of the pro- fession that every actor and actress on entering the theater shall say “Good evening” and on leaving “Good night” to the stage doorkeeper. Dur- ing the many dreary hours I have been permitted to stand in the stuffy hallways of many stage doorkeepers I have never known an actor, from the haughtiest Shakespearean star to the lowliest- chorus girl, fail to greet the stage doorkeeper with enthusiasm, and I can remember but few instances of the greeting ever having been re- turned.—Charles Belmont Davis in Outing Magazine. Her Secret Sorrow. “That woman over there has some hidden sorrow,” declared the sympa- thetic one as she came in and ‘took her seat at a table not far away. “I have often noticed her. See. Her com- panion orders everything she could possibly want, and yet she sits there sllent with a face like a mask. I am awfully sorry for her.” “Don’t you worry,” advised her pessi- mistic friend. “That's ber husband with her. She's bored, that's all.”— New York Press. Question For Question. “My son wants to marry your daugh- ter. Does she know how to cook a good dinner?” : “Yes, If she gets the materials for one. Does your son know how to sup- | ply them ?”—Baltimore American. Idleness always envies Industry.— Itallan Proverb. Not the Store He Meant. Crumpled in his hand was a batch of shopping bills, whose intermittent rus- tiing, as the clutch of their possessor relaxed and again tightened, afforded ample testimony to the cause of his lordship’s displeasure. Gently and with all her wooing arts evidently in hafr trigger readiness the young wife approached the offended sne and began: “Lovey, now don’'t sit here pouting all by yourself like a bad natured lit- tle boy. Such actions, as you' very well know, if you'll only stop to think tt"over, will not at all contilbute to the making of that blissful home you were 80 prone to picture to me during our courting days. Don't you recall it, dearfe, and how eloquent you used to grow over the happiness the future bad in store for us?”’ ‘With the spell of his displeasure partly broken by her persuasive man- ner, and yet with some touch of tart- ness in his tone, he turned and replied: “Yes, I do, but I assure you, madam, that in that remark there was not even a remote hint of a department store.” ~—Boston Courler. Both Were Collectors. A local newspaper artist got a letter owe day from a man over in Indlana ‘who said he was making a collection of sketches. “I have drawings from ‘well known newspaper artists In near- ly every state in the Union,” the In- dlana man wrote, “but I have none from Ohfo. I have seen some of your work, and I think it 1s good. If you will send me some little sketch for my collection I shall have it framed.” The artist noticed from the letter- head that the Indiana man was con- nected with a bank in one of the small towns over in the state of literature. That gave him a hunch, and he wrote back as follows: “I am making a collection of ten dollar bills. I haven't secured speci- mens from every state in the Union, but I have several tens and a few twenties, and I am particularly anx- lous to have a ten dollar bill from In- diana. I notice that you are employed in a place where ten dollar bills are kept, and if you send me one for my collection I shall be glad to have it framed.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Presence of Mind. Although it is not given to every- body to know exactly what to do at the right moment, one woman at least can lay claim to a presence of mind ‘which may, without undue exaggera- tion, be considered phenomenal. This woman's little boy was ailing with some trivial childish complaint, and the doctor ordered him some medicine. He had just taken his daily dose when his mother said, with some ex- citement: “I quite forgot to shake that bottle afore giein ye't, Johnnle. Come here.” Johnnie obered, and, much to his as- tonishment and disgust, was subject- ed to a vigorous shaking from the strong arms of the parent, at the conclusion of which he was laid down with the remark: “There, my laddie, that'll dae. It should be gay weel mixed up noo, I'm thinkin’, but don’t let me forget again.” 3 Johnnie promised.—Pearson’s Week- 1y. A Wardrobe In a Hat. Grandfather De Voe is an artist who appreciates fine millinery. His young married daughter, however, was prac- ticing domestic economy when a hat, a beautiful creation in real lace, ar- rived for little Elise from her devoted grandparent, whose eye had ' sur- rendered to this bit of baby appare} the moment he saw it in a department store. “That hat is entirely too extravagant for this family,” remarked the young mother. “I'll take it back and see what I can do.” A few days Inter the grandfather called to see the baby in the new hat. “Do let me see how she looks in it,” he said. “And how did you like it?” “Very much, father, thank you. They gave me two hats, two dresses, a sweater and 39 cents in change for it.” —Youth’s Companion. b Signs of Long Life. In view of the diversified testimony of present day centenarians on the sub- Ject of longevity and its causes, it is Interesting to get a little light on the subject from Queen Elizabeth’s time. “Bacon took a deep interest in lon- gevity and Its earmarks,” says a phy- slcian, “and Bacon’s signs of long life and of short life are as true today as they ever were. You won't live long, Bacon pointed out, if you have soft, fine hair, a fine skin, quick growth, large head, early corpulence, short neck, small mouth, brittle and separat- ed teeth and fat ears. Your life, bar- ring accidents, will be very lengthy if you have slow growth, coarse halr, a rough skin, deep wrinkles in the fore- head, firm flesh, a large mouth, wide nostrils, strong teeth set close together and a hard, grisly ear.” The Claw of the Devil. In the middle ages people recognized ‘witches and possessed persons by seek- ing on thelr bodles for what was called the claws of the devil. It was a more or less extensive part of the skin; in which the subject was Insensible to any touch or prick. The expert Intrust- ed with this work would close the eyes of the subject and, armed with a sharp needle, prick here and there the differ- ent parts of the body. The sufferer was to answer with a cry to each prick, and the claw of the‘devil on & certain spot was:recognized from the fact that he did not cry when this spot was examined. — From “The Major Symptoms of Hysterla,” by Plerre Janet. % Learn to Be Genial. There are many people who excuse themselves from the little familiarities and kindnesses of life- on the ground that they are not natural to them. These people say they are reserved by disposition and cannot be free and easy in meeting ‘other people. But ‘we can learn to row a boat or to write shorthand or to speak a new language. That unaffected simplicity of address which made Ruskin so approachable to child or man was the.work of long life’s discipline, { The Unveiling. Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards, they simply unvell them to the eyes of men. Sllently and | perceptibly, as we wake or sleep, we Brow and ‘wax ‘strong,- we grow and Wwax weak, and at last some crisis shows us what we have become.— Canon Westcott.' A Modern Heart. Tges “Do you see that lady over thered 8he broke my cousin’s heart.” z “Was she &6 cruel?” % “No, but the day before he. broke off his engagement to her she Inheri 200,000 marks.”--Fliegende Blatten, ‘The Uncertainty of Things. This is the great misfortune of life— that it 1s changeable and neyer remains In the same state. ‘“Man,” says Job, “that 18 born of woman Is of few days and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower and {8 cut down. He ne:':? 8lso as a shadow and continueth not. What is more changenble? We are told that the chameleon assumes in an hour many colors. The sea of the BEuripus has an evil name for its many changes, and the moon takes every day its own pecullar form. But what 1s all this compared to the changes ‘of mean?- ‘What - Proteus ever-assumed so many different forms as man does av- ery hour? Now sick, now in health; now content, now discontent; now sad, now joyous; now timid, now -hopeful; now susplclous, now credulous; now peaceful, now - recalcitrant; now he wishes, now he wishes not, and many times he knows not what he wants. In short, the changes are as numerous as the'accidents’ In-an hour, so that every one of them turns him upside down. The past gives him paln, the present disturbs him, and the future causes him agony.—Luls de Granada. Bathless Rural England. Actual facts upset many a sclentific theory. Theoretically, nine-tenths of the rural population ought not to at- tain ‘maturity; as in fact, they are the longest lived community in the em- pire. We ought to vary our diet, and, if not sworn vegetarians, take ®o much meat to so much vegetables and the rest. But the countryman does not take meat—or hardly ever. He cannot afford it. His wages are high- er than his father's were, but then, meat 18- proportionately costller than was formerly the case. He Is for the most part a vegetable ‘feeder. . He should .frequently bathe, but he does not bathe at all. “How is it, then, that- these men live so long and so rarely experience illness?’ one of the kind was asked the other day. “Well, you see, sir,”” was the answer, ‘“we don’t need no baths. In the summer we sweats so at our work that that serves for all the year round!” Ru. ral England does not bathe. Colliery England and chimney sweeping Eng- land do.—8t. James' Gazette, Chicken, Creole- Style. Doesn’t this suggestion In the Ladies’ ‘World for chicken, creole style, sound good? ‘Wash one-half pint of rice In cold water until no more of the flour dis- colors the water; then place the rice tn a quart of boiling chicken or veal stock and cook untll it Is tender; season with salt and white pepper. Drain out the rice and pack it Into a buttered ring mold; then Invert on a hot dish and let the ring slip out. In the meantime have cooked chicken cut into small pleces and reheated in a tomato puree, seasoned with browned onlon, to which add one green pepper cut into-small Dleces after the seeds are removed. Beason with pepper if liked qulte Hat, salt and butter and flll the center of the rice ring. For a company meal the | green‘pepper can’be omitted, and two canned red Spanish peppers can be put through the mincer and after heating disposed on top ‘of the chicken when It Is placed in the ring. A sprig of pars- ley should decorate the side of the dish. Medical Treatment at Night. Medical freatment almost -wholly conflned to the daytime'is thought by Dr., Lauder, a French physician, to be 8 serfous ‘mistake. Disease 18 most actlve at night—asthma, epllepsy and other attacks coming then almost en- tirely—and observations have shown that medicine ' administered in the night hours, or both night and day, than an equal dose all given in the daytime. It is explained that'in the nocturnal fasting state the body ab- sorbs remedies. with greater emergy, while they are eliminated less quickly. In many instances disease has resist- ed medication by day, but has ylelded to night treatment. 8ame Kind of Cat. “Ethel, aged eight, had succeeded In -making her-dog stand up -on-his hind legs, but her efforts to make the cat ‘do likewise resulted in the little- girl getting & bad’ scratch, “whereupon she | exclalmed, “You d—d cat!” Her horrified mother, who overheard ber, punished her severély, but, not “disheartenéd; Ethel the next morning again endeavored to -Induce puss to emulate the dog, and again she felt the force ‘of the feline claws. *“You"— the angry child began, when her moth- er sald warningly: “Ethel!” “Well,” she continued, “you are just the same kind of a cat you were yes- terday.”—Judge. Willing to Compromise. During- a' match at St. Andrew’s, Scotland, a rustic was struck In the eye accidentally by a golf ball. Run- ning up to his assaflant, ‘he yelled, “This "Il cost ye £6—£5!" “But I called out ‘fore’ as loudly as I could,” ex- plained the golfer. “Did ye, sir? re- plied the troubled one, much appeased. “Weel, 1 didna hear.
