All Because of the Way He Solved the Closet Space Problem. 1 must tell all my bLrothers how my wife and I have solved the problem which so bothers those who dwell where there is but little closet room. With one dressing case between us., there was not room for all our things. As to the closets, they were crammed full, and even under the bed there were many hat boxes. So I purchased another dressing case. 1 then tcok all my clothes, which had been crowding my wife's in her dressing case, and arranged them in my own. In the top drawer I put my handkerchiefs, collars and ties and all those other little articles of finery which every man loves so wuch. In the second drawer | placed my shirts and underwear and devoted the lower drawer to my trousers, neaily folded, and my hosiery. My wife was de- lighted, as it gave her her own dresser all to herself and relieved the closet somewhat. But in a day or so the new plan proved to have a few defects, so at my wife’s suggestion I emptied one of the upper drawers in my dresser, putting its contents into the other and allowed my wife to use the now vacant recep- tacle for a few of her jabots, scarfs, etc. The second day it was decided that my shirts and trousers could oc- cupy the same drawer, the lowest one, so this was fixed, and into the second drawer my wife moved a few of her petticoats and such things. Soon finding that 1 was still using too much space, I permitted her to put my collars and such effects into the lowest drawer with my trousers, etc., thus giving her both of the upper drawers and the vext and still leav- ing me plenty of room in the one bot- tom drawer. Since then. however, I have found that 1 do not require so much space for my few things, so have taken them out of the bottom drawer and packed them into a hat box, which I keep under the bed, thereby giving my wife all the drawers in my dressing case. ' I find the present arrangement very satisfactory, as all I have to do now is to empty the hat box on the bed when .I want anything in it and then, when I have made my selection, sweep the other articles back into place. In this way I have solved the dress- ing case problem, and everything is quite pleasant in our home.—Paul West in Delineator. “Can be depended upon” is an expression we all like to hear, and when it is used in connection with Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy it means that it never fails to cure diarrhoea, dysentery or bowel complaints. It is pleasant to take and equally valu- able for children and adults. Sold at Barker’s Drug Store. WEST POINT . UNIFORMS. Cadets Must Sacrifice Comfort For the Sake of Looks. “It is true.,” said a retired army offi- ver in a discussion of West Pointers with the Washington Herald, *“that many West DPointers acquire a figure of perfection of symmetry and a car- vinge the acme of manly grace. but these are due not to any ingenious ap- pliances, but to the systematic drills #nd exercises that make the cadet, to u certain extent, an athlete. - At the outset these young fellows are put through what are called the ‘setting ap' exercises, their object being to straighten the body and develop the chest. One might suppose that it would require a great amount of such exer- cise to make any marked showing. but three long hours of such exercise daily will soon produce beneficial results in the most stouped forms. “The cadet uniform is also a great help in this direction. The dress coat is tight, very tight. The shoulders are heavily padded in order to give them a square effect. The chest is made thick, so that there will be no danger of wrinkling. And in size a new dress coat seems always to be designed for a boy several times smaller than the one who is to wear it. A new dress coat, in fact. is always a source of suffering to its owner. When he first puts it on it buttons readily about the neck, but seems to lack about six .nches at the waist. The owner may squirm and wriggle and attempt to re- duce his waist to a minimum circum- ference, but his maiden efforts are never sufficient to button the new dress coat. Experience is a great teacher, though, and the young fellow laugh- ingly requests one or two of his friends to lend their assistance, and he finally succeeds in buttoning the coat. All this for the sake of looks. Comfort has no place in the makeup of a West Pointer; it’s discipline and looks.” WATCHED OVER BY SATAN. Superstitions That Twine About the Mandrake Plant. The little plant the mandrake has a wealth of tradition centering round it such as is seldom found in floral lore. Quite an insignificant little plant with a spindle shaped root often divided into two or three forks and rudely re- sembling the human form, it is doubt- less from this latter fact that it has derived its name. Langhorne in the latter part of the eighteenth century tells us to : Mark how the rooted mandrake wears His human feet, his human hands, while it was once believed that a per- son pulling up a mandrake would in- stantly fall dead. This was said to be because the mandrake had a human beart at its root and when pulled it would scream in such a fearsome man- ner as to terrify the hearer to death or else induce madness. Shakespeare alludes to this where he says: And shrieks like mandrakes torn out of the earth, That 1iving mortals, hearing them, run mad. And again in “King Henry VIL” where Suffolk. asked by Queen Mar- garet whether he has not spirit to curse his enemies. replies: Would curses Kill, as doth the mandrake’s groan, I would Invent as bitter, searching terms As curst, as harsh, as horrible to hear. From time immemorial the man- drake has been associated with en- chantments and has ever Leen be- lieved to be one of the most powerful charms of witches. Mr, Conway in a paper on “Mystic Trees and Flowers” states that *‘by popular superstitions in some places it is said to be per- petually watched over by Satan, and if it be pulled up at certain holy times and with certain invocations the evil spirit will appear to do the bidding of the practitioner.”” — Westminster Re- view. .

The talipot palm of Ceylon has gi- gantic fanlike leaves, which when fully expanded form a nearly complete circle thirteen feet in diameter. Large fans made of them are carried before people of rank among the Cingalese. They are also commonly used as um- brellas, and tents are made by neatly Joining them together. They are used as a substitute for paper, being writ- ten upon with a stylus. Some of the sacred books of the Cingalese are com- posed of strips of them, The Modest Hunter. “Can you show me any. bear tracks?”’ asked the amateur Nimrod. “I kin show you a bear,” the native repiied. “Thanks, awfully, old chap.

The Holland ‘Primrose. i There is a plant in Holland known as the evening primrose, which grows to a height of five or six feet and bears a profusion of large yellow flowers so brilliant that they attract immediate attention, even at a great distance, but the chief peculiarity about the plant is the fact that the flowers, which open just before sunset, burst into bloom so suddenly that they give one the impression of some magical agency. A man who has seen this sud- den blooming says it is just as-if some one had touched the land with a wand and thus covered it all at once with a golden sheet.
