, AN UP-TO-DATE PROPOSAL. The Wooer Wasn't Handsome, Bat HU Bank Account Was Fair I to Contemplate, i I “Yes, I put your father onto a good thing last month.” i “Did you? That was nice of you. Papa asked me the other day if I knew you.” “What else?” i “When 1 told him I had met yon he asked me if I thought you had the money-making instinct. And I told him I didn’t think you would be asleep when dividend day came round.” “That was nice of you. I gave your father a good tip yesterday. He took it, tdo. It must have netted him a couple of thousand.” “Why, you ard quite a good fairy, Mr. Slimmer. I’ll remember that tip the next time I strike papa for my pin money.” “But why not give poor papa a rest?” , “I beg your pardon?” “Why nOt let somebody else put up for the pins? I happen to know that papa isn’t on Easy street often enough to establish a permanent ad dress there.” “Pray make yourself a little plain er, Mr. Slimmer?” “That's quite impossible, Miss Bim ler. I feel that nature has done her worst for me.” “Ah, you are fishing for a compli ment.” “No, Miss Bimler, you wrong me. I have no time for fishing, but let me particularize. I am neither young nor handsome. My temper is fairly good, my health excellent. That, I think, disposes of the minor details. Here is a schedule of my worldly possessions—subject, of course, to the daily fluctuations of the market. May I trouble you to look it over?” “With what end in view, Mr. Slim mer?” “I will come to that presently, Miss Bimler. I have shown your esteemed father a duplicate of this schedule. It seemed to please him. He even intrusted me with a note for you. Here it is.” (He hands her a sealed envelope, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer, which she opens with a “Pardon me.” It contains but two lines. “My dear, nail this chap—l need him in the business. Your doting papa.”) “It is quite evident, Mr. Slimmer, that you have made a favorable im pression upon papa.” “And how about papa’s daughter?” “Will you make that a little clear er, Mr. Slimmer?” “With pleasure. How does the sum total strike you?” "Oh, the schedule? Why, it seems very satisfactory.” “And—and will you share it with me. Miss Bimler —Bubject, of course, to the market fluctuations?” “Oh, Abner, this is so sudden.” Quick curtain. THE WELL-DRESSED WOMAN. A Popular Fancy of Smart Dreasers la the One Idea In Color of Costamen. i The smart girl is showing a decid ed preference for gray this winter— steel-gray, not the perishable silver shade. Her covert-cloth coat, with its strapped or slot seams, is no long er in tan; it is now made up in steel gray. Gray squirrel is the fur of the moment, and squirrel fur and orange velvet is the smartest of com binations, says Woman’s Home Com panion. The one-color idea is another fad of the smart girl. Whatever color she selects for her very own, she is careful to see that a suggestion of it is visible in every costume she wears. If gray is the color she chooses, she will not only have her calling-costume of gray, her rain coat gray, her furs and velvet jacket the same shade, but she will be par ticular to have even her dress acces sories in gray, too. For the smart girl who affects gray there is a new style of umbrella. It is made of dark gray silk, with a bor der of a lighter shade of gray. The handle is gun-metal, and in place of the usual tassel there is a small gun metal trinket suspended by a short chain passing through the hole in the handle. This, too, is gun-metal. It looks like an oval-shaped case, and when opened it may contain either a bit of a mirror, a coin-purse or a powder-box. Fillet of Chicken Broiled. From the breast of a chicken cut the four fillets, which can be easily separated, and remove every particle of fat or skin. Dust lightly with salt. Butter a piece of heavy white letter paper and wrap it lightly about the meat. Lay on a broiler over a clear fire and move constantly over the heat. The paper will brown and gradually char, but before it takes fire—you must lift it from the fire just before this happens—you will find the fillet nicely cooked and much less dry than if cooked directly over the coals. —Good Housekeeping. A Slljiht Difference. “Of course, it won’t go any further.” promised Mrs. Black, when a secret had been confided to her keeping. “What I heard just goes in one ear an’ out t’other.” “No, it don’t!” cautioned her bosom friend. “It often goes in one ear an* out your mouth.”—Woman’s Home Companion. Cooked Beef In Tomato. Cut beef into thin slices, place in a spider, cover meat with canned to matoes, add one tablespoon butter, season with salt and pepper to taste. Stew slowly with spider covered. Serve hot. —Boston Globe. Unconscious Prom Group- During a sudden and terrible attack of croup our little girl was unconscious from strangulation, says A. L. Spafford, post master, Chester, Mich., and a dose of One Minute Congh Cure was administer ed and repeated often. It reduced the swelliug and inflammation, cut the mucus and shortly the child was resting easy and speedily recovered. It cures Coungbs. Colds, LsGrippe, and all Throat and Lung troubles. One Minute Cough Cure lingers in the throat and chest and the enables the lungs to contribute pure, health-giveing oxygen to the blood. EH T. Reynolds. THB FRIDAY, PLENTY OF LEMON JUICE. U Taken In Abnndanee It la a SnPe Cure for That Terrible Rhenrmatlam. The idea of treating rheumatism with lemon juice appears to have had its rise in Germany. The method con sists in swallowing the juice of one lemon on the first day, of two on the second day, and so on progressive up to 25 lemons. When this limit is reached the number of lemons is pro gressively diminshed, says the New | York Herald. Mr. Desplats, of Lille, has recently adopted this treatment with some of his patients who suffered from articu- ! lar rheumatism. In one case the pa tient was able to drop the treatment at three lemons. In another he suc ceeded in effecting a cure at 25 lemons so complete and so persistent that at the end/ of ten months the patient had not once had an attack, whereas pre viously he had suffered periodically every month. The third case was one of ankylosis, so bad that the patient could not dress himself without help. To-day he has almost entirely recov ered the use of his limbs, and is free from pain. M. Desplats has also tried this mode of treatment on a patient suffering from attacks of rheumatism accom panied by disease of the heart, for which all means adopted had proved merely palliative. After a few days the patient experienced a manifest re lief of the articular symptoms, but he also experienced pain in the upper right side of the thorax, the pain be ing extremely great and tenacious. In another case there was the same improvement, though in a less marked degree, and the pain in the thorax made its appearance at the end of the treatments. A third case gave the same results. Another pa tient suffering from rheumatism that had proved refractory to salicylate and to thyroid when treated with cit ric acid in doses of from two to ten grammes daily improved considera bly. Whatever interpretation may be placed on the action of lemons in gen eral and citric acid in particular, these results are, beyond question, interest ing to chronicle. FOR THIRTY-NINE CENTS. How a Washington Man Was Made a Lawyer Without Much Formality. A local business man. who was once the representative of one of the big mercantile agencies tells a story of how he became a member of the bar in the state of Virginia a number of years ago says the Washington Star. He had occasion to go to one of the inland counties of the state to make an examination of the count}' records in, order to ascertain the standing in the county of a number of country merchants. Upoif reaching the rail road station he found it necessary to drive a distance of ten miles or more over a road which was a mere apol ogy for a highway. Reaching the county seat he went to the clerk’s office in the courthouse and proceeded to look over the records as he had done in many other places without any ob jection being offered. While he was still on his first book, he was asked by one of the clerks If he was a mem ber of the bar. “Not in Virginia,” he answered, in a tone indicating that he was a member of the bar elsewhere. “I’m sorry,” said the young man, “but in this county it is against the rules for anybody other than a law yer to handle the books” It was explained to the clerk that the legal talent in the firm’s employ could not be found, and as the law yer lived more than two miles away, he would not have time to get him un less he missed the next train. “There will be no trouble in arrang ing the matter,” the clerk informed the Washingtonian. Entering a private room, the oath subscribed to by attorneys was admin istered, and a certificate showing the stranger was a full-fledged lawyer was handed over to him. “What shall I do now?” the clerk was asked. “Pay the fee,” he answered. “What is the amount?” “Thirty-nine cents,” was the clerk’s prompt response. The money was paid and the man from Washington returned home and told how he became a lawyer for the small sum of 39 cents. Family Poison Book. “It would be an excellent idea for every family to have a little book giv ing briefly prompt antidotes for vari ous poisons,” said a prominent New York doctor. “Physicians know that there are scores of cases of accidental poisoning never heard outside of the family concerned. I’ve had several eases of poisoning by an accidental dose of chloroform and aconite lini ment that almost everyone keeps and one woman gave her child muriatic acid that was kept for cleaning the marbles. Prompt action is the great thing in eases of poisoning,” contin ued the doctor. “By the time one can get help from a doctor or druggist it is often too late to save the patient. A few antidotes for the common poi sons would be easy to learn. Still, if there was such a book I suppose most persons would be too much excited'to use it in time of emergency.”—H.‘ Y. Times.

Eli T. Reynolds, WILL PROTECT SPONGES. Device by Which Divers Could Stay jl Long; Time Under Water Sup pressed in Levant. The sponge diver of the Levant will bow have a new lease of life. The “skafander” has been suppressed by Bamos, Crete, Cyprus, Tunis and Egypt. Turkey and Greece have de cided to follow suit. The “skafander” is an apparatus which enables a diver to remain under water for an I hour or so, in submarine garb, at a depth of ten or 15 fathoms. It has been suppressed because the diver sweeps the bottom clean of sponges | large and small, and destroys tlie seeds and germs. The law has simply put the finishing touches on this class of diver, however, as near ly all of his kind ultimately perish from palsy of the lower extremities, etc. Very few sponges have been produced of late, because of such devastation, but they will now have a chance to grow, says the New York Tribune. G. Bie Ravndal, United States con l sul at Beirut, Syria, has been making investigations of the sponge fisher ies, and has sent some results and photographs on which to base a de | scription. In addition to the “ska fander” the natives resort to har pooning, primitive diving and dredg ing. The diver uses a wooden or zinc cone, shaped like a water bucket, open at the top and having a glass bottom. Through this water tel escope he surveys the bottom at depths up to 180 feet, and locates the sponges desired. The diver then plunges, and is carried to the hot tom by a heavy stone slab, or sink er, which he holds in his hands, at- I tached to a cord. He hastily grasps ias many sponges as possible, and : places them in a net around his neck. Signaling by means of his cord, he is quickly yanked to the sur face. It is largely a question of yank —the stone yanks him down and his associates yank him up. At greater depths along the coasts of Asia Minor, dredging is resorted to, es pecially in winter, when the storms have torn away the seaweed and left freer access to the sponges. Syrian waters grow the finest qualities o' sponges. The Mediterranean also produces the cheapest varieties, but none like those found off Florida and Cuba. The Syrian product Is gathered and conveyed to Tripoli and Latakia, where it is disposed of at sponge auctions for shipment to the commercial capitals of the world. New York invests about a half mil lion dollars annually in sponges. The trade has been generally wrested from Smyrna and Trieste by London and Piraeus. The industry has been nearly ruined by use of the “ska fander," but is expected to revive un der the suppression now being en forced. WITHIN PELEE’S CRATER. Description of tlie Awful Cauldron from WhlcU Flowed Death and Destruction on St. Pierre. In this untried ground, with the confusion of mist, rain, steam and dust, and the booming of the crater ■ at our very feet, there was no temp tation for writing any but the most appealing facts, writes George Car roll Curtis, in Century. These in their roughness may possibly give to others the impression of Pelee’s cra ter with something of the freshness of the field itself. From my rain soaked field-book, therefore, I teai these notes direct: Three thousand four hundred and fifty feet. Sulphurous fumeß. Block strewed surface. Dust in the air. Roaring, pulverized sulphurous de posit, as on eastern side of crater. 2:28 p. m.—Great roaring outbreak; gradually subsides. Hovey says, “Hear that, old man!” Continued rain; blows heavily. Sulphurous fumes. Rocks tumbling. 2:so.—Still heavy cloud. Bursting and failing of rocks continue. Re main on inner side of crater. Heav iest sonnds come from N. GO degrees W. by comparison of observations Brown dust mingles with steam of crater cloud. Hovey thinks we are nearer tlie cone than before. Con stant eruption which varies in strength. 3:38. —A crash. Feel the heat from it. 3:s2.—lncrease in explosion. In this connection it should be noted that at about four o'clock Thompson, the pilot from the sloop in St. Pierre roadstead saw a “great smoke” shoot up from the crater. A French gunboat taking soundings in the harbor blew her whistle (which we, within the crater, heard), and put to sea. The tug Rugby, which had brought six priests to search the St. Pierre ruins, hurried them aboard and left. Daneerous Acquiescence. “What was the cause of Vawdvill going to the hospital?” asked Fu tilities. “An Irish friend was telling him that the Hibernians of the country were going to put a stop to actors impersonating them on the stage Vawdvill agreed with him.” "But that didn't cause the fight did it?" “Yes.

Drumgoole, at a meet ing held in Philadelphia, was elected president of the American Catholic Historical society. The law of Christian economics is that every mart should seek the wel fare of his brother, the law of pagan economics is every man for himself.— Rev. Dr. Bradford. The New York board of education evidently believes in the power of il lustration in the teaching of geography and allied studies, and for that purpose purchased recently slides and projec tion apparatus to the amount of $lO,- 750. “Are you aware,” asks a gentleman in a personal letter written from Aus tria, “what a fad it is nowadays upon the continent to study English?” Teachers of English are very much in demand in the large cities of Europe and the number of those competent to teach is scarcely adequate. The janitors of New York and Brook lyn have, been the subject of legisla tion on the part of the school boaTd re cently. among other rules for their government being those requiring them to be married at the time of appointment; they must live within 500 yards of the school buildings, and their assistants must be able to read and write. Janitors will be under the direction of the principals of schools. Dr. Milburn, the blind chaplain of the United States senate, who has re signed, being now in his eightieth year, once said to a senator: “Never allow a session to be opened without prayer having been first offered. If you do, my boys, you will be sure to get into trouble.” The same senator recalls that on the day of the Tillman-Mc- Laurin, fracas Dr. Milburn was too ill to attend and the session was opened without prayer. The venerable chap lain devoutly believes that the trouble resulted from that omission. President Woodrow Wilson, in a re cent address before the New Jersey high school teachers’ association, said: “The present age is breeding self-consciousness and egotism in men because we insist upon spoiling them, making them think that their work is done. Apropos of this proclivity, I could name 20 popular authors who are utterly spoiled; their work Is not worth the paper It is writ/ten on. Egotism is a kind of Intellectual provincialism that leads one to suppose that the world Is contained in himself. When a man goes to college we take him out of himself and make him know the breadth and varity of the world —to know how small he really is. King Penniless. Wealthy as King Edward of Eng land is, he found himself without money the other day, and at a mo ment when he needed it badly. The queen and he were attending divine service in St. Paul’s cathedral, and in dup course the poorbox was hand ed to them. The king thereupon put his hand in Ids vest pocket for some money, but found none, and, though he searched pocket after pocket, he was unable to produce a single penny Much discomfited, lie turned to the queen, probnbly with the intention of asking for her purse, but he was too late, for the official with the box had passed on. After the service the king mentioned the incident to the bishop of London, who had officiated, and said that he would be obliged to ask him for a small loan, adding, hu morously: “It is not the first timt I have borrowed money.” —N. Y Herald. “Oh, I’m sure she isn’t as old as she looks.” “Perhaps not, but I’m sure she’s older than she thinks she looks.” —Philadelphia Press. “When a mule stahts in to be a kick er,” said Uncle Eben,“he’s mighty li’ble to land- an’make some difference.
