A Case in Point, “Tt takes all kinds of people to make a world.” “Yes, yes. That's quite true.

JOHN WARE. “That notice was so extraordinary that I stopped over for a late train and called on John Ware. He was a genial old man and willing to talk. He said he was a person to whom people vol- untarily confided secrets; that many persons in bursts of confidence had i written letters to him which they no { doubt | written, afterward regretted having “Sometimes they said, ‘Destroy this;’ sometimes they didn’t. Anyhow, John Ware had kept most of those in- criminating letters. But now that he was getting old he had seen what harm might result from those letters falling into strange and unscrupulous hands, and he had burned them and had taken that novel way of notifying hi; correspondents that they were Bafe. “That talk with John Ware set me thinking. The first thing I did when I got back to New York was to burn & batch of letters.” BEAUTY NO LONGER A MARVEL Time Has Gone By When World Stopped to Wonder at Loveli- ness of Women. ‘Within the last week two well-known, beautiful, rich society girls, both young, both popular, with all doors to which society has the key flung open before them, have elected to go into an East End hospital and scrub floors for pauper invalids. Perhaps they will not stick to it; the important thing is that they want to try it. The fact is that we are no longer sufficiently satisfied with beauty to think a woman has justified herself by being good to look at. Thirty or forty years ago people came from every part of the world to see ' Georgiana Lady Dudley, Mrs. Langtry and Mrs. Cornwallis-West walk in the park. At an earlier date the beautiful Gunnings caused riots, so great was the anxiety to see them. Anne of Austria drew people from the most' inaccessible cor- ners of what was then a very inacces- gible world, who made their way with vear-long journeys to Paris, caught a glimpse of her entering her carriage and went home again saying they had seen loveliness itself. Today we would not cross the road to see a pret- ty woman, possibly because there are s0 many of them. Indeed, beautiful women of today are more admired by women than by men. But in any case beauty as a profession is dead. —lnn don Truth. Sneezing as an Omen. The only attention we pay to a sneeze at the present day is to en- deavor to get rid of the chill which causes it; but a sneeze in the days of old Greece was a matter of great con- cern and import. There was then a god of sneezing, and great undertakings would even be abandoned if a man sneezed at an inappropriate moment, the act being looked upon as the oracle of the god. A sneeze between midnight and noon was looked upon as a fortunate sign, but between noon and midnight it betokened great misfortune. To sneeze to your right was lucky; to the left unlucky. Two or four sneezes were lucky, one or three very un- lucky and any undertaking in hand should if possible be abandoned; more than four sneezes did not count. There 18 a saying in many parts of England today: “Once a wish, twice a kiss, three times a letter, four times something better.”” If people sneezed together it, was a good . sign, particu- Jarly if they happened to be discuss- Ing business. Oranges Once a Prohibited Fruit. Oranges were for some years a pro- hibited fruit in Holland. When the Batavian republic was established the badge and color of the stadtholder's family became so hateful to the popu- lar pariy that, not satisfied with ex- pelling their prince, they passed a law forbldding the sale of oranges and car- rots, and ordering all persons who grew lilies or marigolds in their gar- dens to pluck up the plants and de- stroy them. This prohibition remained | in force until 1806, when Napoleon made ‘his - brother Louis king of Hol- land, SAFE REMEDY ENDS GATARRH MISERIES Gives Instant Relief, Cures and Pre- vents Catarrh and Cold in the Head.

Ely’s Cream Balm will relieve you imme- diately, and a 50 cent bottle will more than likely work a complete cure. All druggists sell it. FRANTIC SEARCH FOR WOOD Superstitious Customer in Modern Barber Shop Had Hard Time to Find the Object Desired. “Well, how’s the neuralgia?”’ queried the barber, sympathetically, as he poised the razor over Thompson’s lathered face in a tonsorial emporium. “Haven’t had any since last”—and then the barber was dumfounded to see his customer rap hard on the arm of the chair. He was further aston- ished when Thompson sat up, jumped to the floor and ran‘to the marble wash bowl, where another customer was in process of being shampooed. Thompson reached under the stool on which the customer was sitting, and rapped it. Then, with a look of dismay he turned wildly and made a sprint to the cigar counter at the far end of the room. There he rapped his knuckles on the wooden frame, while barbers and customers, in various stages of barbering and hair cutting, stopped and stared. “It's all right,” he grinned from be- hind his coat of lather. “Had to touch wood, you know, after making that statement about not having had neu- ralgia. I sure don’t want it again.” “You surely don't have much wood in these places,” he observed as the barber somewhat gingerly began the shaving operation anew. “This chalr is made of enamel, glass, nickel and leather, that stool seat is made of some kind of leatherette composition, and I do believe the only thing in your shop made of wood is that cigar counter frame.” Then Thompson's barber and the other barbers went on sghaving. Just Occurred to Him. “It never struck me before,” said Mr. Wimpleton, “but Dr. Temple stopped ‘me this morning to tell me what a big, handsome, manly-looking fellow our son had grown to be.” “I don't see how you could help no- ticing it,” his wife replied. “I have been aware of it all the time; but I guess a mother is more likely to look for such things than a father is.” “Oh, I've realized that Will was handsome and manly-looking, all right. You never have been any more proud of him than I have been.” “But you just said it never ha struck you before.” “I'mean it never struck me beforyg how much he resembles me.” Its Suggestion. “When I asked our new girl #f ahet could do anything in the line of puid ting up vegetables she replied, ‘T can| can’” "My dear, that sounds as if she wid 8 French chorus girl” mmediate Effect of Great Kid- ney Remedy is Soon Realized. - According to my experience I do not consider there is anything, to jequal Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root for kidney affection. Twice it relieved me when I was completely helpless. The last time I was traveling in Texas, when my kidneys became af- fected, and for ten days I suffered excruciating pain, accompanied with severe chills. Several years pre- vious having been relieved of a sim- ilar attack, I naturally sought relief as before, from Swamp-Root. After using four of the large size bottles, I was completely restored and went on my way rejoicing and praising Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. This was three years ago, and I have had no indication of the return of the affliction. “Your very truly, J. C. SMITH, Jr., 108 Johnson St. Jackson, Tenn.
