WAS WARPING FROM HEAT Bandy Legs of Man Watcning Fir* Horrify Gallant Would-b#. Rnwir. The great Chicago Are is recaJIe8 by Mr. P. F. Cook in "Bygone Days in Chicago," and he tells this amus ing story of Isaac Spear, a well known watchmaker in the early days. Mr. Spear was very short, and so ab normally bandy-legged as to attract instant attention. He was in the forefront of the crowd, watching the fire, and at ona time became so absorbed in the spec tacle that he stood at a point of im minent danger, like one transfixed. A kindly newsboy, alarmed at the situation, rushed gallantly forward and, tapping him on the shoulder, shouted above the din: "Say, mister, if you don't corns •way you'll burn!" The caution not having the de Bired effect, the youngster sprang to the rescue a second time. Once more he gave anxious warning, and still Isaac paid no heed. On returning to a place of safety, the boy, to his horror, observed the little man's deformity. Screening his face with his arms, he charged again into the consuming heat, and, while literally dragging the watch maker to a place of safety, shrieked in his ear: "You must come away! You're Warping!"—Youth's Companion. COULD BE POSSIBLI Pint Rabbit—I haven't seen your brother for several days. I'm afraid that goat ate him up. Second Rabbit—Why do you think so? First Eabbit—I heard one of those hunters say he found a hair in the butter this morning. JUDGE OF HUMAN NATMJRf Dogs are unerring judges of hu man nature. Instinctively they spot hypocrisy, snobbery and fear. It is a wise young man who at that criti cal period of his life when he is seeking to double his expenses and divide his income in matrimony, takes his dog with him when he goes courting. If he lets the dog pick out the girl the chances are that he will get a paragon of virtue with no divorce coupon attached. The girl who knows the way to a dog's heart has a heart of her own that is well worth the winning. Trust ycur dog to pick oot the right girl foi- yon and you will never draw a blank with a mushy charlotte russe character and constitutional objections to darning and sewing on «hirt buttons.—Pennsylvania Grit. LONDON CREATES FA6HION8. Although Paris undoubtedly has long been the fashion arbiter for the women of Europe, London of late has been making rival claims in that regard and in some instances not un justifiable by the fact that where British approval has been lacking Parisian innovations have died a speedy death. One London dress making establishment that pretends to be the equal iq prominence of the most famous in Paris, is now mak ing especially attractive and purely British display of spring models about which all feminine London is talking, and it is generally regarded that these are to be taken as the ab solute decrees of fashion.

After being dumb for more than four years, David Newell Shuter of 117 Milton street, Long Island City, has had his power of speech restored to him by means of hyp* not ism. Dr. Alfred J. Fox of 210 Fifty sixth street, Manhattan, who effected the cure, declared that Shuter's ail* ment probably was caused by ner Vtous shock, resulting from night mare. The doctor examined the man's throat and became convinced that there was no organic disorder, and that it was a ease of paralysis due to shock. He decided, therefore, that the case did not require the ad ministering of medicine, but that hypnotism would do more good, and, accordingly, started to treat the case along these lines. After the first treatment, which was about two months ago, Shuter showed signs of improvement, and has been improving ever since, until now he has practically the same pow er of speech that he had before he became afflicted. As far as tones and inflections are concerned, the case is cured, but there still remains the necessity of strengthening the vocal cords, which have become, so to speak, rusty through nonuse. TELEPHONE HAD A BAD COLO And Orders for Two Certified Copies Sounded Over the Wire Like 235. Slurring of words over the tele phone wire came near working clerks overtime in the office of A. B. Harri son, secretary of state of Oklahoma. The department was called by long distance from Kansas City and requested, as the clerk understood, to "prepare two thirty-five copies" of a certain corporation charter. The of fice took on signs of business, with orders going to town for several reams of white paper. Judge Fitzpatrick of the corpora tion desk stopped long enough to fig ure that the fees to the 6tate would amount to $700 for copying alone. "Do you suppose that is on the square?" queried Judge Fitzpatrick, as he looked at his computation o£ the cost. "Better confirm it," suggested the secretary of state, so a telegram went to Kansas City asking if the request was for "235 copies." Orders for the white paper were countermanded two hours later when a boy walked into the secretary's of fice with a message which read: "Not on your life. We want two certified copies."—New York Herald. HOW IKE LOST EYI. William L. Kaiser, a member of the United Commercial Travelers, has acquired a reputation as a story teller. "Bill," is much in demand at banquets, reunions and stag parties. Although the story is worn almost threadbare, "Bill" insists upon re peating the following anecdote at ev ery opportunity: The farmers, John and Jake, met at a crossroads with loaded teams. They paused to pass the local 6maU falk. "John," said his friend, "did ye hear o' the accident down at Reed'a corners "Nary a word," replied John. "Well," continued Jake, "ye'll re member Ike Robinson's hotel, the •Lakeside Traveler's Rest.' A troupe o' 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' people put up at the Corners last week, and Ike gave the leading lady the biggest room in the house, the old parlor on the first floor." The old man paused meditatively. "Yes?" queried John. "An' thafs how Ike caitfe to leap his right eye." r. "How did it happen asked John. "Through accident "Nope," answered Jake. "Throijgh the keyhole." PROBLEM IN NATURAL HI8TORV. "Evolution tells us," said the sci entist, "that the ear is the modified breathing apparatus of the fish."

Nothing will more quickly inter fere with the general feeling of well being than some abnormal condition of the eyes. Working steadily day after day at some very absorbing oc cupation, trouble with the eyes may come on almost imperceptibly. You may have headache and lassitude be fore locating the K?al difficulty, so tliat the eye affection has gained headway before it is detected. You v. ill feel as if there were a thickness all about the eyes, and between them. Don't go to the optician be fore trying to cure yourself. He might put glasses on you which you do not need. Bathing the eyea with hot water, and a little boracic acid or salt, will help them. However, the hot water loosens the skin about the eyes. Cold water solution may pot act as quickly, but it will eventu ally allay the difficulty. Ice com presses in the morning and at night also bring relief. Wear an eyeshade while working, to keep the light from striking downward on the eyes. In a very irritated caso smoked glasses may be worn in the street. But they should be rather light, and dispensed with as soon as possible. Treat the eyes with the very first symptom of discomfort. COAL COMES HIGH a Johnson—The trouble with the average furnace this weather is that it don't draw. Bronson—If that's your experi ence you're in luck. Mine draws too much—draws nearly my whole sal ary, in fact. BERB8 ARE A PEASANT PEOPLE. The inhabitants of the Balkan provinces are not the warlike, fero cious people that popular imagina !:on in this country is apt to picture I hem. The Servians, for example, are a genuine simple peasant folk, whose home life might be copied with advantage by the populations living under the rule of the great powers of Europe. The Servian practices the art of co-operation, while civilized people are learning its elements. Every little homestead in Bervia is a family commune, while in some of the mountain districts ex ists the zadriga, or communal vil lage, where everything is held in ommon and where the oldest man is the guide and commander and final authority as to the mating of the people in his district.
