Love's Supreme Test.
"Nqbody will set out a woman's
garbage can for her but her servant
her (husband or her lover." This is
not the persiflage of a yaudevil.list or
the epigram of a philosopher or thr
mocker)* of a cynic. It is the grave
declaration of a referee in a divorce
case where it was proved' that the de
fendant husband had not only carried
h(\me groceries for the co-respondent,
but, had looked after the garbage pail
Shakespeare classed the lover along
with the poet and the lunatic, because
they "are of imagination all compact."
The referee in this case classes him
with the husband and the .servant be
cause of a Servitude absolute. The
argument of the referee in support of
Ills conclusion was quite simple. "A
man's affection for a woman." he
said, "is shown by his willingness to
take trouble on her behalf, to do lit
tle services for her, to do with a will
ing hand that which a man not Jn
love would .deem tiresome, trouble
some and disgusting."
Then it is not the champagne din
ner nor the lobster supper, nor the
auto ride nor the diamond ring nor
even the sonnet nor the offer of mar
riage "that constitutes the supreme
test of love.
Colony Lives as injthe Past, ii,'
Wrapped In the dark superstition
of the middle ages, a colony of Rus
sian Cossacks still endeavors to hide
itself away in Anatolia,'Asia Minor
affording a rare field for research for
.the student of the historical. About
3,000 of the forefatlijjfs of these Cos
sacks left Russia for voluntary exile
350 years ago. Their departure was
occasioned by an attempt to enroll
their names for census purposes'in
writing. According to the creed of
these peasants, the writing down of
their names Jeopardizes their chances
of salvation, for it involves the Curse
of Antichrist, enabling him to set his
seal upon them. During the whole of
this time the Cossacks have kept
their identity absolutely intact. The.v
speak a Russian dialect bearing the
same relation to the language of the
present day as does our modern Eng
lish to that of Cftaucer. They wear
the Russian dress of three centuries
ago, and even grow herbs, uncultivat
ed elsewhere in Anatolia, to make the
dishes that were the'food of mediae
val Russia. wc
A Tragedy.
All was excitement in the Simperly
household, chortles the Philadelphia
Times. W.rdie Flnklewix was coming
from far-off Samoa to claim pretty
Sallie Simperly as his bride.
Carefully,, and with the light of un
dying love in her eyes, Sallie Simper
ly took Ferdie's seven photographs
from the left hand bureau drawer and
arranged them on the piano in the
parlor. Tanned by the Samoa trade
winds, Ferdie strode into the parlor
to take his beloved in his arms.
"And my seven pictures have been
ever a source of Inspiration to you
while you let your fingers stray over
the keys in some melody of love!" he
cried as the simpering seven met his
gaze.
At that moment little Susie Simper
ly entered the room,
"O-o-o!" she exclaimed in her inno
cent childish way, "I observe seven
likenesses on the piano which I can
not recall having hitherto noticed."
"Good night and good-by!" said Fer
die Flnklewix.
Origin of the Stocking.
A writer in a French newspaper has
been investigating the origin of stock
ings. It appears that Henry II. when
preparing for the marriage of his sis
ter in 1559 first conceived the idea of
silk hose, and was the first .to'jwear
silk knitted stockings at that epoch
making event. A hundred years later
one Hindres established a factory for
stockings in the Bois de Boulogne.
This was the first hosiery. factory in
France,. It was a success at the start,
fftid, when it received protection from
the then ministers, it was a kind of
gold mine. In 1663 the venture was
turned into a company. From it arose
"the Society of Silk. Stocking Makers."
A Good Pole Horse.
Prospective Purchaser—I want a
horse to use in my work.
Dealer—Well, what kind of work do
you do?
Prospective Purchaser—Wire repair
ing.
Dealer—Here she is. Just the horse
you want, young man. All you have
to do is to show Maude a picture of
an automobile and she'll piimb *.ele

"Well," demanded the cold-vfsaged

"Madam." he replied, "I am the ex

likewise my gun and purse. I am foot

"We've got nothing in the house

in the same lofty tone "but I pray

A Modern Type.
They are usually of a willful falr
ness,-with' flesh kept firm by the mas'
seuse their brows are lowering, and
there is the perpetual hint of hard
ness in their faces their apparel is
exceedingly good, but their manners
are ungentle, their voices harsh and
discontented there is no light in their
eyes, no charm or softness in their
presence. They ar& fitting mates, per
haps, for the able-bodied pagans who
are overrunning the earth, but hard
ly suitable nurses for a generation
which must redeem us from material
ism, If indeed we are to 'be redeemed.
Facing them, one wonders if race sui
slde is not one of nature's merciful de
vices. How should they or their off
spring ever replace our old-fashioned
lady? Yet they are the natural'prod
uct of much of our modern wealth,
as she was the natural product of the
comfortable life of a generation of two
ago.—Tho Atlantic.

Walnuts High In Fooo Value.
The food value of walnuts is very
high. They are very rich in fat, con
taining as much as 63 per cent, while
the proteins amount to nearly 15 per
cent. It has been calculated that 30
large walnut kernels contain as much
fat tas 2-% pounds of lean beef, and
yet the walnut 'H used as a supple
ment to a square, meal. Added to
this the glass of. port, say .two fluid
ounces, contains besides 180 grains of
alcohol, 70 grains of grape, sugar. In
the combination, therefore,' we have
all the -elemeuta which -make.
for a
complete diet—viz.:-.Fat, protein, car
bohydrate, to which may be added
mineral salts. Port and walnuts after
a meal are therefore, .from a nutritive
point of view, "ridiculous excess,*'
and may lead to digestive disturbance'.
Both walnuts and port wine contain
tannin, which is unsuited to some con
stitutions. J..,

That the claim to an Interest in the

those unknown defendants claiming bj.,

.the fact that the records of
show that by a certain, deed dated 18th

jortlon of the property above described
".vas attempted by said deed to be con
veyed and nowhere upon tho records
Joes there appear any deed or convej

iffs state the fact to be that by a
certain deed dated 2nd of July, 1855,
iliown of record in Book E, lage 3,
the said Catharine Douglas under the
name of Catharine M. Douglas, conveyed
^11 her right, title and interest in and

149, above referred to, had no right,
title or interest in and to said prop
erty, and that all interest which the
jold Catharine Douglas had or could
claim in and to said property is now
he property of these plaintiffs.
That the claim to an interest In said
eai estate above described made by..the
defendant, Joseph C. Jones, and those
unknown defendants claiming by,
Lhrough or under him, is derived from
Lhe fact that the records of said county
•show that by a certain deed of date

was attempted to be conveyed to the
said defendant, and nowhere upon the

onvey a portion of said property had
io rlglit, title or interest In said prop
erty. and could not and did not con
vey, any right, title or interest in said
property by their said conveyances. That
the said deeds purporting to convey
an Interest to the said defendant were
"executed through mistake and the de
scription therein contained was erron
eous that grantors had no authority
co convey the property described or
inv interest therein, and that the said
defendant under said' instrument took
and received no right, title or Interest
in said property under said conveyance,
and never assumed ownership nor took

property has ever been the property of
the plaintiffs and their grantors.
That the mode of devolution of 'the
