I shall never cease to regret the rich red beefsteaks I didn't eat during a period when I fondly trusted in the assertion of the doctors that red meat caused rheumatism.” “They've found out now that it's strawberries,” sald Mrs, Sylvester. “I was reading an article yesterday, by & doctor—" “No doubt you were,” interrupted her husband. “It's just the time of the year that the medical fraternity would choose for the publication of an article denouncing strawberries— right in the season when they are the most tempting. Why, I had a dish for luncheon yesterday that made life seem worth living again. So the doc- tors have combined to deprive us of the solace of eating fresh strawber- ries, have they? Well, they can't work it on me this time! I'm a pa- tient creature, but my patience has its limits. Not uii I've forgotten the long dreary winter, during which I abstained from cating raw oysters for fear of typhoid, ouly to read in the first montn of the year without an R an article by some noted medical man asserting that the percentage of ty- phoid due to oysters is so small as to be negligible.” “It's best to be on the safe side,” sald Mrs. Sylvester, “The sufe side, indeed!” he exclaim- ed. “Oh, certainly! You got a great deal of comiort out of being on the safe side when you used to arrange all the grape seeds so carefully along the edge of your plate. It you swal- lowed a single one by mistake you worried for weeks in fear of an at- tack of appendicitis! I don’t notice you troubling much about grape seeds in late years. And why? Simply be- cause your feminine credulity has been satisfiecd by the assertion of some doctor that grape seeds are not the cause of appendicitis, after all!” Mrs. Sylvester began to look alarmed. “We have been exhorted to wear flannels and not to wear flannels,” he went on. *“We've been admonished to drink water during meals, after having been solemnly warned never to do so0.” “They do seem to change their minds pretty often,” admitted Mrs. Sylvester. Sylvester continued oratorically: “Each succeeding generation of doc- tors since the days of Aesculapius, or whatever his name was, has pro- nounced false the opinlons of the pre. ceding generation.” His wife looked thoroughly fright- ened. “It's perfectly dreadful!” she exclaimed. “I really never thought about it before.” “Ah-00!" groaned Sylvester, who had so far forgotten himself as to draw back his left leg quickly. “What is it, Henry?" asked his wife anxiously. “Oh, I don't know what on carth we should do it you were to get sick, with the doctors all disagreeing and changing their minds every few minutes!" “Nothing's the matter with me,” he replied. “I was about to say, how- ! ever, that, of course, the doctors are bound to hit it once i a wlile, uad there may be something, after all, in that idea that strawberries cause rheumatism. I've been having a lit- tle pain in my left foot for a day or two, and as I've been eating straw- berries every day for luncheon, I don't know but it might be a good thing to stop in on my way to the train and ?sk the doctor what he thinks about | g “Do!" exclaimed Mrs, Sylvester, so interested that her own aches were forgotten. “It's 80 much more com. fortable to be sure.” —_———— Last Omnlbus in Paris.

It can be made with any small card- board box of a suitable size, and if the lid is not already hinged on it should be fastened on by pasting & plece of broad tape across the back. The front of the box should be cut out and hinged on at the lower edge in the same manner, and the whole box can then be neatly covered with ‘silk or linen.

At this season of the year the no-l lection of the “dressier” coats and suits is one limited only by the purse or taste of the buyer, and the most serious question confronting the av- erage man or woman along the sub- ject of “clothes” is what to buy that will be good looking and yet be serv- iceable in both rainy or sunny weather. The “cravanette” answers all requirements and is suitable for every occasion where a rain repel- lent garment is desired. The secret of the popularity of this material is that its appearance never indicates that it is a waterproot fabric, but when wearing it in a storm its rain-proof qualities are quickly appreciated. For auto wear, riding habits, cos- tumes for outdoor sports and for chauffeurs’ outfits this cloth is ad- mirable, as it comes in three weights and in various shades and weaves.
