Life In Christiania
Many of tho residences of Christiania
stand villa like In toe midst of pretty
gardens which in summer are full of
bloom and give the streets a pecullur
charm and sense of openness Within
the people live simple wholesome lives
kindly and hospitable with that truest
hospitality which invites the guest to
share In good cheer without ostentation
or display Dinner Is at 3 or 4 oclock
served by trim fresh looking maids
and supper nt 8 where except on form
al occasions the guest Is free to forage
around the table for himself Dost
and hostess drink the health of oach
guest with the word skaal replied to
by the eyes over the glass after drink
ing Adjourning to the drawing room
the guests thank both master and mis
tress of the house and on the nest
meeting never fall to say Thanks for
the last time One Is everywhere
struck by the frank and unaffected sim
plicity of the life and the straightfor

Dread of Marble Portraits
One peculiarity of human nature
that I am reminded of daily said a
sculptor is the disinclination of the
average man to look upon himself re
produced in marble The sight strikes
him with positive dread It makes
him feel as If he were looking on his
own lifeless body For that reason It
is difficult to persuade many persons
worth modeling to sit for a sculptor
Frequently I am asked why most of
my work is modeled after dead and
gone subjects The answer is that liv
ing people refuse to give me a commis
sion The art of the sculptor differs
there from that of the painter Every
body likes to be painted The sight of
ones face ones figure ones clothes in
a picture evokes nothing but pleasura
ble emotions if well done but to see
oneself carved out of marble produces
such an overpowering sense of death
that many sensitive persons put off Im
mortalization at the hands of a sculp
tor until they are really dead New
York Press
His Brothers
At the usual monthly petty sessions
court held in a certain provincial town
some weeks ago the following incident
occurred
One of the local police constables had
summoned a neighboring farmer on a
charge of having a number of asses
wandering at will on the public road
The defendant failed to appear but
his brother was present in the person
of the clerk of petty sessions who on
hearing the sentence of the presiding
magistrate Fined 2s 2d and costs
rose to the occasion by replying
Theyre my brothers your worship
Ill pay the line
He was shocked when his becoming
exhibition of fraternal love for the
asses was rewarded with an outburst
of laughter Loudon Graphic
Where the Shoe Pinched
It was easy for air Itandall to bear
with his wifes remarkable decision of
character at all times but her obsti
nacy he found most diilicult to endure
I cant quite comprehend her he
conflded to his brother after one try
ing experience Many years as we
have been married she still surprises
me Why all in the same day some
times in the same hour she will settle
a disturbance in the kitchen put the
children just where they belong adjust
some matter in the church and then
when her judgment ought to be at Its
best display the most astounding ob
stinacy in attempting to regulate my
goings out or comings in Its Its in
comprehensible
Moslem Prayer Rugs
Prayer rugs were evidently invented
for the purpose of providing the wor
shipers with one absolutely clean place
on which to offer prayers It is not
lawful for a Moslem to pray on any
place not perfectly clean and unless
each one has his own special rug he
is not certain that the spot has not
been polluted It does not matter to
these followers of Mohammed how
unclean a rug that is on the floor may
be because over it they place the
prayer rug when their devotions begin
An Eye Experiment
The two eyes really see two objects
If the two forefingers be held one at
the distance of one foot the other two
feet in front of the eyes and the for
mer be looked at two phantoms of the
latter will be observed one on each
side If the latter figure be regarded
two phantoms of the nearest finger
will be observed mounting guard one
on either side

IT SAVED Ml LIFE
WRITES ECZEMA PATIENT
Bed ridden Sufferer Completely Cured
by Use of D D D External Wash
One of the most remarkable eczema
cures recently credited to the well
known D D D Prescription has just
been recorded in Chicago
Mrs E Hegg 1550 West Madison
street under date of Dec 9 1907 writes
as follows
I suffered three years with Weeping
eczema It started with a little spot on
my knees and spread fast over my whole
body I spent hundreds of dollars and
went to every good doctor I heard of
but kept getting worse Nothing would
stop the awful itch and burning
I had to stay in bed from the middle
of May to the middle of July Then I
tried DDD Prescription This is the
9th or December and I am entirely free
from the terrible disease DDD sav
ed my life
When I began this treatment people
were afraid of me I looked so terrible
My husband was tho only one who
would take care of me DDD stopped
the itch at once 30 I could sleep which
I had not done before Then I began
to get better fast and now my skin is
clear and white not a spot anywhere
Just a few drops of DDD Prescrip
tion applied to the skin brings relief
nothing to swallow or drink We vouch
for DDD Prescprition also the cleans
ing DDD soap Get a bottle today if
you have any skin disease Begin
your cure at once For sale by all
druggists
