MISSED THE PARTY
WTiy One Girl Hud to Keep Secluded
For Over u Week
They were two pretty girlsand when
they happened to meet on- one of the
quiet streets of the city the girl In
gray turned and walked In the direc
tion the other one had taken
Now let me know all about the par
ty said the one who had turned Ive
been just dying to see yoy and have
you tell me
Oh but I wasnt there at all said
her companion Thlste the -first time
Ive been out of the house for more
than a week
Why have you been ill her friend
Inquired surprised and solicitous
No I really think it was worse than
that she replied
You know Im a little proud of my
hair for its iny one redeeming point
modestly and because it is naturally
wavy it is always iiufliest after it has
been shampooed
A day or two before the party I
washed my hair using what I thought
was borax in the water When I at
tempted to dry my erstwhile bonnie
brown curls they were stringy and
hard and looked as if they had been
frozen in wisps Then to my horror I
discovered that I had used powdered
alum in the water It took me a whole
week to get it out of my hair I miss
ed the party I had set my heart upon
attending and wouldnt let any of my
friends see me for I was a perfect
fright Duluth News Tribune
Sinn of the Tongne
The sins of the tongue all point to
the necessity and profit of self mastery
There is danger in tho tongue that
often brings the deepest sorrow to in
nocent ones as well as throws a re
flection on a pure character If this
confession of failure and magnifying
of the oiBce of the tongue seem exag
gerated let any one sit down quietly
and think of the sins and cruelties of
human speech The careless word
which no repentance can call back
again the rash promises which it has
cost us so much to fulfill the expres
sion of the lower nature which has
shamed tho higher the confessions of
evil and yiolding to falsehood the hot
and angry words which sober thought
condemn these are some of the perils
of the tongue On the other hand like
most of the uses of the world which
turn so easily to evil the tongue may
be the instrument of great and lasting
good
A Rejected Novel
Eefore he had achieved fame the
French novelist Xavier de Montepin
on concluding a long and elaborate
tale of adventure took it full of hope
to a publisher who promptly declined
it on even the most advantageous
terms to the writers poignant morti
fication Twenty years afterward this
identical publisher besought at his
hands a sensational story one of those
serials which were the delight of gri
settes offering any price within rea
son Well said De Montepin I
will oblige you but my terms must be
somewhat heavy I want 4000 Aft
er many protests it was paid
In telling the story De Montepin
used to add The best of the business
was that it was the very same story
which he had previously rejected and
which I had in various directions en
deavored in vain to dispose of
A CnriouH Tree
There is a peculiar tree in the forests
of central India which has most curi
ous characteristics The leaves of the
tree are of a highly sensitive nature
and so full of electricity that whoever
touches one of them receives an elec
tric shock It has a very singular ef
fect upon a magnetic needle and will
influence it at a distance of even seven
ty feet The electrical strength of the
trees varies according to the time of
day it being strongest at midday and
weakest at midnight In wet Aveather
its powers disappear altogether Birds
never approach the tree nor have in
sects ever been seen upon it
