a square piece of cloth over the heads
of bride and bridegroom wnno tney

and was intended to hide the blushes
of tho fair bride. Widows were not so

How He Discovered Hla Charmer Wa
Fickle.
She was piotty. attractive und very
Donular. He was as unsophisticated
.mil unsuspecting as alio was clover.
She was n stallor and ho could not
make himself bollovo It. Hut, now,
for the trifling sum of live cents de
noslted In tho coin box of a tolephono,
and the results thereof, he Is wise and
she Is nono the wiser.
On tho first day previous to that of
my story, he hud called her on tho
'nhone. und was met with tho stall
that siio was not reeling very wen, u
. ii .. I
ho had better call her again- In the
morning.
As ho was walking to tho drug store
the following morning his gaze fell
upon a lonesome looking nickel lying;
in the gutter near the curb. Upon
closer Investigation ho found the dato
on the nickel stamped 18S5.
"Why," ho mused, '"that ought to
be a lucky coin, that's tho sumo yoar
I was born. Wonder if it Is lucky?"
And he lighted a cigarette and took u
deep Inhale. So on to tho drug store
he wont, this unsuspecting youth,
carrying his lucky nickel. He was In
such a hurry to put tho coin to the
test that he merely nodded in answer
to the clerk's friendly greeting,
After calling for her number and
relighting his cigarette he was told
to "drop in a nickel, please; here's
your party." But Instead of the usual
"hello!" he heard something more like
this: "V3, send It to Mr. W. H. II,
at tho Virginia Hotel, Columbus, Ohio,
and charge It to . Oh, Maude! Go
to the door and call Bobble quick."
(Now Maude wns tho girl's name and
Bobblo was her little pet fox terrier.)
Then over the phone came three or
four short whistles, followed by, "Here
Bobbie! Come in here," unmistakably
Maude's voice.
He had heard enough, so he hung up
tho receiver and decided to tell the
operator she had put him In the wrong;
pew. Of course, she was very sorry
and said for him to hang up and she
would call him when the line was not
busy.
During the two or three minutes"
wait he was busy framing up a little
speech, congratulating her on her
Bpeedy recovery. And as he was
thinking he couldn't help smiling
about the lucky nickel, now lost again.
His meditations were suddenly, but
pleasantly. Interrupted by the little
buzzer on the phone, and again he
turned and buried his nose in the
transmitter. '
"Hello! Is this H s residence?
Is Maude there?
Islvsck in bed
What! You say she son)0 peasant8 fieiHng potatoes Huh
Well, that's too bad. Btrcet with a few clover touch- ho
I guess It won't make any difference
who this Is. Good-by."
And as he rose to go he muttered
to himself:
"'Tis but a tangled web we weavo
When first we practice to deceive."
How He Worked the Artist.
This account of how an intimate
friend of the great artist Kyosal ol-
tamed ono ot tne painters urawmgs
is from Mrs. Hugh Frazer's "Letters
from Japan:"
Kyosal always refused if asked out-
right for a sketch. So his friend be-
can the negotiation bv onerlnc tne
artist an excellent dinner. When
Kvosal had drunk deeply and seemed
in a mellow humor his host called for
drawing materials, saying inai ne
felt an artistic lancy tamng posses-
Ion nf lilm. No one was sururlsed.

themselves In this way after a feast.
The servant then brought nn enor-
mous sheet of white naper and spread
it on the floor with tno urusnes ana
Indian Ink beside it. ine crauy nosi,
without looking nt his guest, sanK
on his knees nnd began to draw, ap-

Incoherent lines. Kyosai watcneuine

irritation, and at last Jumped up
dashed the tyro aside and tore tho
brush out of his hand, exclaiming:
"Out of the way, you wretched
bunder! I will teach you how to
draw!" And tho result was a price
less sketch, which remained In the
possession of the wily entertainer.
Dyeing Real Flowers.
"Every onco In awhile some florist
gets busy and puts some odd colored
blossoms In his window as an extra
attract on to the display." said a
clubman. "I Just noticed one down
the street It consisted of a bunch of
Impossibly green carnations. At first

they wero made of paper, but they got
Interested when they round out mat
they were 'natural. Now. anybody
who wants to have any of these freak
flowers can get them by buying some
kind of aniline ink, any color desired.
Carnations are the easiest to color

stems in a glass filled with ink.
Their stems are soft, and in a short
