Training a Cook.
An Irish servant Is, of all peoplo In
the world, tho most anxious to please,
nnd she even desires to do exactly ns
she Is told, even when tho commands
laid on her are unreasonable. In
"The Lighter SIdo of IrUh Life," Mr.
G. A. Birmingham gives an amusing
Instance of this trait.
A young housekeeper onco under
took to train a cook. One day, It
happened that there were whiting for
dinner. She explained carefully the
proper way of cooking whiting, nnd,
with, a view to achieving elegance in
the serving of the dish, added that
these particular fish are usually Bent
up to table with their tails In their
mouths.
The fish appeared on tho dinner
table, not seductively curled after tho
pleasant habit of whiting, but lying
rigidly straight on tho dish. Each of
them, however, had its tall cut off
and neatly inserted into Its mouth.
Tho Inexperienced cook had most
conscientiously 'obeyed what must
have struck her as a merely vexatious
order. Youth's Companion.
Supreme Test of Friendship.
An Invitation to breakfast was, In
Macaulay'p opinion, one of tho su
premo tests of friendship. "You Invito
a man to dinner," he wrote to Mrs.
Harriet Beecher Stowe, "because you
must invite him, because you are ac
quainted with his grandfather, or be
cause you wish to see him. You may
be sure if you are Invited to breakfast
that there Is something agrdeable
about you."
The man who marries a pretty girl
Is apt to get the short end of it If he
takes her at her face value.
More women might be able to save
money If the drygoods stores would
cease having bargain sales.

HAS NO INJURIOUS EFFECT
Strong Denial That Presence of Tuber-
culosls Sanatorlums Is Detriment
to Adjoining Property.
Convincing proof that tuberculosis
sanatorlums or hospitals are not a men
ace to the health nor a detriment to
tho property of thoso living near such
Institutions Is given In a pamphlet Is
sued recently by the National Associa
tion for tho Study ajid Prevention of
Tuberculosis. In an extended study
of the subject tho association has not
been able to find a slnglo Instance
where a tuberculosis sanatorium has
had an Injurious effect on tho health
of anyone living near It, nor where It
has had any lasting effect upon prop
erty values.
The pamphlet, entitled, "The Effect
of Tuberculosis Institutions on tho
Value and Desirability of Surrounding
Property," reviews all tho studies
made on tho subject, takes up court
decisions bearing on tho question and
contributes besides some original In
vestigations of typical hospitals and tho
opinions of prominent mon, life Insur
ance companies nnd others. Nearly
one hundred and fifty different instltu
tlons are studied. In all these Instltu.
tlons not one case could be found
where the assertions of opponents to
their location, that a tuberculosis san
atorium would spread disease and In
jure property, could be substantiated.
In fact, a number of instances were
found where tho presence of the san
atorium or hospital promoted outdoor
living, tending to lower the death
rate, and Increased the market for
produce and labor, thereby benefiting
the community.
Two Classes Barred.
A Buccessful agricultural show Is
carried on each year In a certain vil
lage In the south of Ireland. Among
the many competitions for tho encour
agement of thrift and cleanliness la
one for the best turned out donkey
cart. The prize for this was usually
won by either the local doctor or the
local solicitor. After one year's show
tho farmers and working classes pro
tested that It was not quite fair to ex
pect their hardly used animals to com
pete successfully with the well-cared-for
and well-groomed animals of thoBe
who generally won the prize.
In consequence of this protest the
following proviso In connection with
this competition appeared In the show
placard the following year:
"All legal and medical donkeys ex
eluded." Titles and Taxes In Spain.
In Spain titles of nobility are taxed
in tho same way as houses or land.
Moreover, each separate title Is taxod,
and for this reason certain members
of ancient families in which a number
ot titles have accumulated drop some
In order to save money. Owing to the
system long prevalent in Spain by
which women of noblo birth transmit
their title not only to their children
but to their huBbands so that a
plebeian marrying a duchess becomes a
duke, Spanish titles rarely become
extinct unless tho holders deliberately
discard them.

Do You Know Lemonade Is Made of Lemons Often?
WASHINGTON. -The somber-souled realist who composes press bulletins
for tho department of health earns his salary If painstaking effort counts
for anything at all. Nothing daunts him; he even tackles circus lemonndo.
of lemons diluted with water and
sweetened with enno sugar. A similar drink, prepared from oranges, Is usually
called orangeade. Usually slices of the rind are added to give an additional
flavor."
Having propounded these comparatively simple lessons, tho author cun
ningly lures tho reader on to carbonated water, ginger nle, birch beer, root
beer nnd sweet elder. Tho last, "one of the mot ngroeablo of tho non
alcoholic (mark thnt nice distinction) bevorageB, Is tho Altered Juice of Bound,
ripe apples. If sterilized in bottleB and kept tightly closed it may be kept
for n long tlmo."
With sweet elder ho stops. Klght on the threshold of a masterpiece, he
hears tho call of duty. The natural deBlre to expound and elucidate the mys
teries of Dock, PllBener, Muenchner, May wlno, applejack, forty-rod and
squirrel Is throttled at birth.
Sternly keeping to words of one syllable, ho points out that there Is no
coal tar In lemonado; nor is there coal tar In birch beer; nor In root beer;
nor, In fact, In any of these favorite household beverages In their puro state.
And this methodically bibulous pessimist has done more. Ho has tested
94 samplos of lemon Bodn, 31 of ginger nle, 40 of sarsaparllla, and bo on down
tho lino, and now passes on In simple language tho knowledge thus Imbibed.
Out of tho 94 lemon sodas 58 contained saccharine nnd somo applo elder
contained benzoate of soda. In nearly everything ho found an Ingredient
that does .not belong In "favorite household beverages." Not ono dealer ad
mitted tho presence of saccharine; not ono acknowledged benzoate of soda.
So, therefore, being soundly grounded in fact, ho hastened to tho type
writer nnd wrote his adventures that all might halt In tlmo and bowaro of
misrepresented drink.
Dramatic Exceptions to a Most Excellent Rule
A PREOCCUPIED woman strolled across the asphalt as If for the sole pur
pose of being run down. An nutomoblle thnt looked capablo of performing
tho Job a tremendously Imposing machine, with a thrown back top of tan
leather and body of anarchist red
gave a warning toot.
Tho woman ignored It. Camo an
other toot. Tho woman kept up her
slow strolling, as If tho avenue were
one of thoso things you call a flowery
mead. After ho had sounded n third
warning, tho chauffeur, who had al
ready slackened speed, curved around
the woman and whizzed on. And for
thnt one tlmo, anyhow, tho situation
was saved.
Two men on a curb tool: In tho
Incident, nnd when It wns over tho ono who wns smoking n cigar said to tho
ono with a cigarette:
"Tho majority of automobilists are as careful as that man, but It Is tho
occasional reckless Idiot who races down everything In his way, who gets
into tho pnpers and ruins tho reputation of tho others. You never bco a care
ful chauffeur In print."
"Idiots have their uses" tho xlgarotto man said it with tho cheerful
philosophy of one who takes llfo easy. "They figure up as tho dramatic ex
ceptions to the monotonously excellent rule. Good peoplo seldom make in
teresting copy. It Is the exception you must look to for headlines."
And ns they talked, tho preoccupied woman touched the bricks just as a
bluo-bluck machine had glowed up to save tho general dlsagreoabloness of
mowing her down.

first saw tho light of day. Mr. Houston tells a story on his predecessor, the
Hn. George P. Jones, who wns known in his day as "the watchdog" of tho
'r'easury.
Jones was a merchant, and one day an lrato old lady dismounted In front
of his store, gathered up her voluminous black calico riding skirt, took her
eggs under her arm and sailed Into tho store and Into Jonos, too. Tho
names sho called him would have mado a Missouri mule blush. Hacking out
flushed with victory, she was about to mount when sho remembered that sho
had not tired tho most effective shot In her ammunition chest, so, opening
tho door, she shouted: "And I want to tell you, Gcorgo P. Jones, that you
have got tho worst shnpo any man over had."
Got Tired of Having Old Bluff Worked on Him
REPRESENTATIVE HEN JOHNSON of Kentucky 1b a man of philanthropic
Impulses and when ho used to practice law he wns constantly being Im
posed upon by peoplo who took up -his tlmo without giving him much roward.
Tho old chap usedto come lu
about twlco a week to have legr
chores performed nnd Johnson never
charged him anything. Hut the old
man never failed to make a bluff of
putting his hand In his pocket nnd
Inquiring: "Well, how much do I owo
you, Hen?" knowing well enough that
Johnson would say: "Oh, thnt's all
right."
Now Johnson didn't mlpd doing
all this work for nothing, but ho got
tired of having the old chap work
that bluff on him. Ono morning the old fellow reached Into his pocket and
naked how much he owed for legal services Just as a charity worker entered
tho ofllco. '
"Oh, I guess $25 will be nbout right," was the startling reply.
Tho client was game and paid It, whereupon Hen tossed It over to tho
charity worker, saying to his client:
"If you over pull that bluff ou mo ugain I'll clmrgo you more'n that."

For years we have been stating in the newspapers of the
country that a great many women have escaped serious op

pound, and it is true.
We are permitted to publish in this announcement
extracts from the letters of five women. All have been
recently received unsolicited. Could any evidence be
more convincing?

2Ciiaklotte, N. C. "I was hi bad health for two years, with
