In the long line of cabs and automo- biles in front of a big New York hotel was one car around which a few idlers had gathered. Something was wrong Prone upon the ground lay an animal of some kind. A dear old lady hap- pened along. She saw the little knot of people and put up her glasses to observe the cause. Then she saw the brown fur of the thing on the icy as- phalt. “Poor creature, poor creature!” said she aloud in her compassion. “Is its leg broken?” She pushed close to the prostrate figure in the brown fur. | It moved. The dear old lady took a closer look. Then she made a sound approximating a ladylike snort. It was the chauffeur of one of the taxi cabs, clad in his brown fuzzy coat, in the usual attitude of flatness, tinker-| ing the under part of his machine with | a monkey wrench. The dear old lady, all her sympathy curdled, hurried on. GREAT PAINTER'S EARLY DAYS Zlem Was a Tallor's Assistant, and Worked. His Way to Italy to Study. Ziem, gitting cross-legged on a w! ble beside a window, worked as a-tall- or's assistant for several years. His life was thrown into a new channel by the arrival in the courtyard of an Ttalian family in which there was a handsome, auburn-haired girl, who sang as a ballad singer. The father played a hurdy-gurdy, thé mother made lace, and a boy performed divers gym- nastic feats. The girl had. a fine voice. Her father wanted a new coat and asked the elder Zlem to make It and Mme. Ziem to take in a part of the family as lodgers. She took in the boy and girl. The latter lifted the future painter out of himself with her Venetian songs and accounts of the glorlous city to which she hoped soon to return. Her name was Caterina. When she went away Ziem felt miserable. He lost spirit and could not shake off the sort of paralysis that had seized on all his faculties. At last he determined— with the help of his needle and his talent, as he thought, of portrait paint- er and violinist—to make his way to°| Venice. They answered to his hopes of going down by water to Marsellles, for he knew no geography, and thence to Rome. 1t would be now curious to see the portraits of Saone and Rhone captains of barges, wine and wood rafts that he did for them in lieu of passage money. In Rome he got in with paint- ers and tourists. The former helped him to enlarge his artistic culture, and the latter took him about as a guide. But Caterina and Venice lay on his heart, and he took the bold resolution of golng on foot to the city of his dreams. He so fell in love with it the first day he went on the Lido that he did not break his heart when he heard that Caterina had not turned up, but had gone to Paris to serve as a model. THIS IS THE AGE OF WOMAN Everywhere She Is Doing Now What Formerly Was Considered the Work of Man. It may be difficult to tell what is a woman’s age, but unquestionably this Is it. Men’s colleges into which wom- en have made their way have had to drive them out again in order to give the men a chance at graduation hon- ors. From the pulpit and the bar down to the coal mine and the iron furnace women are doing what used to be regarded as man’s work., The liter- ature of the day is overwhelmingly feminist in its character and very much of it is the work of women. Men are being told things about wom- en that it was not deemed proper for their fathers to know, and as for them- selves, they are being shown up with- out remorse. ‘Within a few days illustrations of | the feminist revolution, physically and intellectually, have become public. Man is destined to lose even his | physical superifority. The superinten- | dent of a hospltal in Boston, where | 3,000 babies are born annually, says: | “We have noticed that girl bables are getting taller and_that_they are ap- | pearing in this-world lately with more real vitality than formerly. The boy bables continue om the average, both fn weight apd height.” 1 Bird and Beast Sanctuary. Remote from all large centers of population a bird and beast sanctuary has been established in the Upper Engadine in Switzerland. This is the Val Cluoza, near Zernetz and not far from the Ofen Pass. It is a well wooded spot of considerable area carefully watched, and in the summer continually patrolled by keepers, One of these, who has just returned to St. Moritz from a visit, found the park completely snowed under to a depth of more than four feet, In it were flve herds of chamois, one of which numbered 147 head, besldes & great number of roebuck and deer, to- gether with bears, foxes and other smaller Alpine animals. Flocks of snow hens were also wintering.in the sanctuary with numerous crossbills, titmice and other small birds. It is hoped that the establishment of this reserve will prevent the threat- ened extermination of wild -beasts and birds in the Alps. Waste in Coal Range. Economic waste, represented by the coal range, was strikingly illus- trated in tests made recently at the London electrical exposition. Demon- stration proved that the shrinkage of meat when cooked in a coal range is surprisingly great. A leg of mutton weighing eight pounds and eight ounces showed a shrinkage of two pounds and eleven ounces when cook- ed in the coal range, whereas a leg of mutton welghing nine pounds show- ed a loss of one pound and four ounces when cooked in an electrio oven. The shrinkage for the gas oven ‘was two pounds and four ounces on an eight-pound leg of mutton. A Reforming Influence. “That automobile I bought has been doing wonders for me,” saild Mr. Chug- gins. “Fresh air and all that thing?” “It has benefited me morally as well sort of | a8 physically. It has led me to avoid Intoxicants and to lead a life that will insure me as peautiful an oblfuary as vporsible’ Big Bags of British Hunters. The shooting in Great Britain for 1911 is over as far as grouse are con- cerned. The heaviest one-day bag ob- tained in Scotland was that of Lord Dalkeith and his party on the Duke of Buccleuch’s Roanfell moor, in Rox- burghshire, when eight guns killed 2,523 birds. In England the best one-day bag was that of the Duc de Luynes and five other guns on Lord Strathmore’s Wemmergill moors in the Upper Lune- dale district of Durham; 1,599 birds were killed during four drives in stormy weather. On the Duke of Devonshire’s Upper Wharfedale moore in Yorkshire 14,918 birds were killed in twenty-two days, all by driving; and there were usually nine guns out. The best bag was ob- tained on August 18th, when the King was included in the party, and nine guns killed 1,580 birds on the Barden and Rylstone moors.

WHO’S RESPONSIBLE ? Our principal work is the filling of prescriptions. When a doctor gives a prescription he places his own reputation and the welfare of his patient in Our responsibility is We know and realize what depends on us and thoroughly understand our business. all times we are fully capable of knowing the seriousness of our calling. A good druggist fills every prescription as carefully as though it were In asking you to bring your prescriptions to us, we do so with conscientious confidence. You will find us worthy. YOUR HEALTH DEPENDS The best drugs are needed if any are required at People may run chances on cheap clothes, but with medicine it is a case of health, and fre- quently of life or death. For prescriptions: having the doctor’s prescription filled, it should be taken to the store that makes: a specialty of keeping only the purest and best drugs, with ex- perienced, licensed pharmacists to compound Juwely Stue At In Bemidji, Min ‘What can tiie wind be looking for the . Wweary world around? ‘What aid it lose those years ago that it -has never found? It seeks it through the summertime— sometime you see it pass So silently and stealthily it barely bends the grass; It tiptoes to the willow trees that stand beside the brook, Then races to the orchard just to have another look. It searches up and down the hills, and searches on the plain, And runs all eagerly along among the drops of rain; It roams the long miles of the ses; and flings aside the spray As though it had no time to pause and must not stop nor stay, And then it circles fast and far across the desert sands Or creeps in pagan palaces in all the heathen lands. It hurrles down the city street, 1t leaps across the lanes, It lotters near the cottage and it shakes the window panes, It shouts along the mountain side -and sways the mighty pines, It weeps above the autumn lands and lifts the withered vines— Yet never, never has it found, whereve: it may go, The thing it must have lost one day a- many years ago. And no wtonight it has returned to moan and sob and sigh, To peer among the forest trees whose naked arms Iift high; 1t rumbles in the chimney and it rattles at the door— I wonder what it lost and now can never find once more. Soon it goes by north and south and on by east and west Uike some lost soul that journeys out up- on an endless quest. Ice. Ice, llke many other incidents in Hife, is free when we don’t want it. Just now there is a great deal of ice. Peqple are simply falling over it. Next summer. the iceman will tell us with a doleful countenance that be- cause there was. a shortage in the crop this winter he has to charge us about slxty cents a hundred. At one time the entire surfacé of the earth hereabouts was covered with a thick layer of ice. Of course, though, nobody lived here in the sum- mertime when nice ice could have been had for the picking. Ice gives us its greatest joy when We see the coal dealer fall on it. Hair. Men have less hair than women, and most of them have less hair than formerly. This is because of the hats worn by men. They (the hats) are ugly as iron pots and no more comfortable. They compress the scalp and kill the hair. Thus men become bald and gain the reputation of indulging in much mental effort, ‘Women have more hair than men becauge they wear light hats, and also because they wear more hair. Men would wear as much hair as ‘Women if they could afford it. Too Short. Mr. Bluntly, the grocery ‘man, Has led his trade to doubt him. He's ‘caustic in his talk, and has Buch a short weigh about him. Olly Talk. s “The isles of Greece! Tne isles of Greece!” ‘ The fair young elocutionist waved her arms wildly as she hurled this bunch of Byron at her audience, “Good gestures,” sald Mr. Knowsitt, “but very poor.in pronanciation. Think of spending money to learn elocu- tion, and then committing such an er- ror as to say ‘lles of Greece’ for ‘olls of grease.” “But,” gald 'Mrs. Knowsitt, in an spologetic way, “perhaps it is a dialect recitation.” No Difference. Mra. Peck—I expect there is a good deal of truth in that old adage about “Those who marry in haste repent at Yolurs” 52 0 5 - Mr. Hen Peck—Yes, but the other fellows do the same thing.

Even in this rich country, only one family in ten csn afford to hire a cook, and in the far west such a per- son is seldom obtainable at any price. Now, by the fireless cooker all womén who have to prepare their own meals will be emancipated from the hot. stove slavery, which is particularly cruel in our sultry summers. It mokes it possible for them to ‘cook breakfast, luncheon and dinner at the same time, in perhaps an hour, leav- ing the rest of the day free for other work. Brolling, steaming, stewing, baking, frying, roasting—everything, except crisping and toasting—can be done with these boxes in their most {mproved styles.—Century. * Exceptions. . “The pass system has been general- " .| 17 abolished, hasn't it?" “Not so generally.
