Agnes. Had Only Followed in the Foot steps' of Her Mother. Even if there had not been kernels of rice on her hat and a glad light of love in her eye any bachelor could have told that she was a bride. And the manner in which she spoke to her husband showed they had not been married long. A man in the passing crowd spied the" couple, and rushed over to greet the bride. "Well, well, Agnes," he cried, ex tending'his hand, "you don't mean to say that you're married?" "Why why, yes," the girl stam mered, vivid color mounting to her cheeks, as she tried to defend her novel situation. "You you know, it runs in the family. Mother was mar ried, too." NO 8KIN LEFT ON BODY. For Six Months Baby Was Expected to Oie with Eczema Now Well Doctor Said to Use Cuticura. "Six months after birth my little girl broke out with eczema and I had two doctors in attendance. There was not a particle of skin left on her body, the blood oozed out just anywhere, and we had to wrap her in silk and carry her on a pillow for ten weeks. She was the most terrible sight I ever saw, and for six months I looked for her to die. I used every known remedy to' allevi ate her suffering, for it was terrible to witness. Dr. C gave her up. Dr. B recommended the Cuticura Remedies. She will soon be three years old and has never had a sign of the dread trouble since. We used about eight cakes of Cuticura Soap and three boxes of Cuticura Ointment. James J. Smith, Durmid, Va., Oct 14 and 22, 1906." PAMPERED. Mrs. Newrich Will your hounds fol low a fox?

The crew of the Elizabeth Hopkins sat on deck in the gloaming, gazing idly at the dusky shapes of the barges as they dropped silently down on the tide, or violently discussing the Iden tity of various steamers as they came swiftly past Even with these amuse ments the' time hung heavily," and they "thought longingly of certain cosy bars by the riverside to which they were wont to betake themselves in their spare time. To-night, in deference to the wishes of the skipper, wishes which approxi mated closely to those of royalty in their effects, they remained on board. A new acquaintance of his, a brother captain, who dabbled in mesmerism, was coming to give them a taste of bis quality. "I never 'eard the likes of It." said one, with a deep breath, as the skip per concluded a marvelous example. Voices sounded from the wharf, and the night watchman appeared pilot ing Capt Zingall to the schooner. The crew noticed that he . came aboard quite like any other man, descending the ladder with even more care than usual. At first he was not very successful. The men stared at the discs he put into their hands until their eyes ached, but for some time without ef fect Bill was the first to yield, and to the astonishment of his friends passed Into a soft magnetic slumber, from which he emerged to perform the usual idiotic tricks peculiar to mesmerized subjects. "It's wonderful what power you 'ave over 'em," said Capt. Bradd, respect fully. Capt Zingall smiled affably. "At the present moment," he said, "that man is my unthlnkin' slave, an' what ever I wish him to do he does. Would any of you like him to do anything?" "Well, sir," said one of the men, " 'e owes me 'arf a crown, an I think It would be a 'ighly interestin' experi ment if you could get 'im to pay me. If anything 'ud make me believe in mesmerism, that would." "An he owes me elghteenpence, sir," said another seaman, eagerly. "One at a time," said the first speaker, sharply. "An 'e's owed me five shlllin's since I don't know when," said the cook, with dishonest truthfulness. Capt Zingall turned to his sub ject "You owe that man half a crown," he said, pointing, "that one elghteenpence, and that one five shil lings. Pay them." In the" most matter-of-fact way in the world Bill groped in his pockets, and, producing some greasy coins, paid the sums mentioned, to the in tense delight of everybody. "Well, I'm blest." said the mate, staring. "I thought mesmerism was Passed Into a Soft Magnetic Slumber. all rubbish. Now bring him to again." "But don't tell 'im wot 'e's been doln'," said the cook. Zingall with a few passes brought his subject round, and with a sub dued air he took his place with the others. "What'd It feel like. Bill?" asked Joe. "Can you remember what you did?" Bill shook his head. "I should like to put you under the influence," said Zingall, eying the mate. The mate complied, and everybody gazed spellbound at the tussle for su premacy between brute force and oc cultscience. Slowly, very slowly, sci ence triumphed, being interrupted several times by the blood-curdling threats of Bill, as they floated down the companion-way. Then the mate suddenly lurched forward, and would MMMMAMMMMMMMWMMNMWMW Trouble Was Not Organic. Official's Ailment One Comparatively - Easyto Cure. ' - Gen.

"And that's your mate, George," said Zingall, pointing to the deeply inter ested Bradd. "Ay, ay," said the mate again, with, a sigh. "Take command, then," said Zing all, leaving him .with a satisfied air and seating himself on the locker. The mate sat up and looked about him with an air of quiet authority. "George," he said, turning suddenly to the skipper with a very passable imitation of his voice. "Sir." said the skipper, with a play ful glance, at Zingall. "A friend o mine named Capt Zing all is coming aboard to-night" said the mate, slowly. "Get a little whisky "Who Are You Calling George?" for him out o my state-room." "Ay, ay, sir," said the amused Bradd. "Just a little In the bottom of the bottle 'II do," continued the mate; "don't put more in, for he drinks like a fish." "I never said such a thing, captain," said Bradd, in an agitated whisper. "I never thought o' such a thing." "No, I know you wouldn't" said Zingall, who was staring hard at a nearly empty whisky bottle on the table. "And don't leave your 'baccy pouch lying about, George," continued the mate, in a thrilling whisper. . He leaned back on the locker and smacked his lips. There was a faint laugh from one of the crew, and look ing up smartly he seemed to be aware for the first time of their presence. "What are you doin down here?" he roared. "What dojrou want?" . "Nothin', sir," said the cook. "Only we thought " "Get out at once," vociferated the mate, rising. "Stay where you are," said the skip per, sharply. "George!" said the mate, In the squeaky voice in which he chose to personate the skipper. "Bring him round, Zingall." said the skipper, irritably. "I've had enough o' this. I'll let 'im know who's who." Still holding him with his gaze, Zin gall clapped his hands together, and stepping up to him blew strongly in his face. The mate, with a perfect scream of rage, picked him up by the middle, and dumping him heavily on the floor, held him there and worried him. "Help!" cried Zingall, in a smoth ered voice; "take him off!" "Why don't you bring him round?" panted the skipper. "Because I can't," said Zingall, shortly. "It'll have to wear off." "Wear off!" repeated the skipper. Zingall drew himself up with a lit tle pride. "Well, see what I've done," he said. "The fact is 'I was charged full with electricity when I came aboard, and he's got it all now. It's left me weak, and until my will wears off him he's captain o' this ship." "And what about me?" said Bradd. "You're the mate," said Zingall, "and mind, for your own sake, you act up to it. If you don't cross him I haven't any doubt it'll be all right, but if you do he'll very likely murder you in a fit of frenzy, and he would n't be responsible. Good-night." "I'm going to bed, George," said the mate, staring at him. "I feel a bit heavy. Give me a call just afore high water." "Where are you goin to sleep?" demanded the skipper. "Goin to sleep?" said the mate, "why, in my state-room, to be sure." Any idea that the skipper might have had of the healing effects of sleep were rudely dispelled when the mate came on deck next morning, and found that they had taken the schoon er out without arousing him. ' "I know you're a good sort, George Smith," he said, leniently, "nobody could wish for a better, but while I'm master of this here ship it don't be come you to take things upon yourself in the way you do." "I want to explain the position of affairs to you," said the skipper. "Do you remember Capt Zingall what was aboard last night?" "Eh!" said the mate, sharply. "He mesmerized you," said the skipper, hastily. "Now keep quite calm. You say you're Benjamin Bradd, master o' this vessel, don't you?" -, ---,-l-l-l-lllltr--(-u-unj1J-IJ-u-(J-u-u AMAAMMi MAAAAM "The physician frowned at the fat. Well lntentloned, but lazy.

"T. want you to tell me frankly. he said to the physician, 'what is the mat ter with me.' "Let bm hear anybody say as I ain't" "Yesterday," said the skipper, pluck ing up courage and speaking very slowly and impressively, "you were George Smith, mate, but my friend, Capt Zingall, mesmerized you and made you think you were me." '1 see what it Is," said the mate, severely. "You've been drinking; you've been up to my whisky." In obedience to the summons of Capt Bradd the crew came up, and being requested by him to .tell the mate that he was the mate, and that he was at present laboring under a delusion, stood silently nudging each other and eying him uneasely. "But damn It all, man." said the mate, taking a mighty grip of Bill's collar, "you know I'm the captain, don't you?" "O' course I do. sir," said BUI. "There you are. George," said the mate, releasing him, and turning to the frantic Bradd; "you hear that? Now, look here, you listen to me.. Either you've been drinking, or else, your 'ead's gone a little bit off. You go down and turn in, and if you don't' give me any more of your nonsense I'll overlook It for this once." Time, Instead of restoring the mate to bis senses, only appeared to con firm him in his folly, and the skipper after another attempt to convince him, let things drift, resolving to have him put under restraint as soon as they got to port They reached Tidescroft In the ear ly afternoon. He warned them of pub lic houses and other dangers, and re minded them affectlngly of their du ties as husbands and fathers. "Al ways go home to your wife and 'chil dren, my lads," he continued with some emotion, "as I go home to mine." "Why, he ain't got none," whispered Bill, staring. "Don't be a fool, Bill," said the cook, "he means the captain's. Don't you see he's the captain now." Meantime, Capt Bradd had reached his house, and was discussing the situation with his astonished spouse. She pooh-poohed the idea of the po lice and the medical faculty as being likely to cause complications with the owners, and, despite the remon strances of her husband, insisted up on facing the mate alone. "Now you go In the kitchen," she said, looking from the window. "Here he comes. You see how I'll settle him." The skipper looked out of the win dow and saw the unhappy victim of Capt. Zingall slowly approaching. "I've come home," said the mate. "So I see, Ben," said Mrs. Bradd, calmly. "He's told her," said the mate to himself. "Children all right?" he inquired, after another pause. "Yes," said Mrs. Bradd, simply. The mate pulled out an old leather purse and counted the contents, two pounds and a little silver. "There isn't five pounds there," said Mrs. Bradd, "but I may as well take last week's housekeeping while you've got it out" Before the mate could prevent her she had taken the two pounds and put it in her pocket. "No, no, I want the money myself," said the mate at last He put his hands to his head and began to pre pare for the grand transformation scene. "My head's gone," he said, in a gurgling voice. "What am I doing here? Where am I?" "Good gracious, what's the matter with the man?" said Mrs. Bradd, with a scream. She snatched up a bowl of flowers and flung the contents In his face as her husband burst into the room. The mate sprang to his feet, spluttering. "He's come around!" said Bradd, ecstatically. "Don't you knew what you've been doing?" The mate shook his head, and stared round the room. "I thought we were in London," he said, putting his hand to his head. "You said Capt. Zingall was coming aboard. How did we get here? Where am I?" In a hurried, breathless fashion the skipper told him, the mate regarding him the while with a stare of fixed incredulity. t "I can't understand .it," he said at length. "My mind's a perfect blank." "A perfect blank," said Mrs. Bradd, cheerfully. It might have been ac cident, but she tapped her pocket as she spoke, and the outwitted mate bit his lip as he realized his blunder, and turned to the door. The couple watched him as he slowly passed up the street "It's most extraordinary." said the skipper; "the most extraordinary case I ever heard of." "So it is," said his wife, "and what's more extraordinary still for you, Ben, you're going to church on Sunday, and what's more extraordinary even than that, you are going to put two golden sovereigns in the plate." Match Production in Brazil. The number of boxes of matches produced In the federal district of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1907 was 202,041, 400, of which 189,550,000 were wood and 12,482,000 wax matches. The stamp revenue was $1,218,384, or about six-tenths of a cent a box. The output is used In the district itself. The "match tax alone amounts to a little over $1.50 for each man, woman and child. The explanation for this ex ceedingly large consumption of matches is in the fact that almost every male inhabitant of the district is a smoker, and most of them smoke cigarettes. Long Life Passed in Health. Mme. Dardelin, who recently died at Beaune at the age of 105, had been a widow for 33 years, and her last ill- l ness, which lasted four weeks, was the first she had ever had. flushed face and, frankly enough, re plied: "'The trouble with you. sir, Is that you are suffering from underwork and over pay.' " Overdoing the Orderly Life. Men who live an orderly life are in great danger of doing nothing else. We wrap our virtue up In little bags of respectability and keep it in the store house of a safe reputation. But if it is genuine virtue, it is worthy a better use. Jlenry van Dyke. "I do." said the mate. straight Lines for Fig ure Is Absolute Edict of Fa?bforj. As It was rumored la the summer, the padded waist line has come to t-ass. There is an oblong pillow worn down the center seam of skirt and princess frock to give a large waist line and a straight drop from bust to floor. Extra thin women are padding the corset at the back, where the straight frock or coat is apt to fall into a curved waist line. This spoils the effect of the wide, straight back, which Is the feature of good fashion to-day. Women who have large waists are happily letting them out and having comfort for the first time in their Ives. The only thing is that one must wear gowns and coats in straight lines, otherwise the effect is absurd. Anything that tends to enlarge hips ana oust is considered bad manage ment in dressing, and even though the waist line is not only let out, but pad ded, the hips are laced in absolutely tight from the waist down. Every 'wjunan does not know how to lace a corset, and If she is In error the result will be worse this year than for many seasons before. It must always be unlaced its entire length every time it is removed. Oth erwise bones break and steels snap and the corset lasts half Its appointed time. When It is put on it should be hooked up in front, then the hands put under It to draw up the flesh. Next the elastics are fastened to the stock ings and the figure comfortably adjust ed before the lacing begins. The lacers, which have loops in the center, should be pulled a little at that line first, then they should be pulled hard at the extreme lower edge, bring ing the edges of the corset together. This should be done all the way up over the hips, the extra length of lacers pulled out at the center. The same method of lacing should then begin at the top 'of the corset, only it is not necessary to lace 'so tightly above as below. The strings in the center are pulled as tight as one wishes and tied in a loose knot. They should never be brought around the corset and tied in front, as this destroys the waist line by denting it and finally breaking the corset bones. Old-Fashioned Braiding. Some of the new coats have their entire surface covered with a close de sign of soutache braiding. This was the height of style years ago, and it has been revived In exactly Its old form. The soutache is put on as though it were cut out with a jig saw, and it Is quite effective. One model in green broadcloth has a seven-gored circular skirt, with high waistband, and fastens down the left front with buttons of green velvet cov ered with soutache. The coat falls below the knees at back and to the knees in front. It Is covered from shoulder to hem with these scrolls and turns made of soutache. ine fronts do not meet except by means of a heavy black satin waist coat fastened with green velvet buttons. Velvet Roses. The new thing of the moment is the immense rose with petals that are larger than an ordinary rose, made of helio velvet and worn on the front of a hat. Sometimes two smaller ones are placed at the sides, and between them is a festoon of helio tulle. These roses are also worn at the front of bodice and just below the left hip on an evening gown made with a tunic that crosses over at left and is slashed to show an underskirt of tulle or chiffon. Baidto DeecDrsiitfldDini III teoessnillElBViB? SmmmmamammaammF osmams Our sketch illustrates a very effective way of decorating the space imme diately above the dado with a number of small pictures, all of the same size. This form of decoration is especially adaptable to a reading or smoking room, and may be carried out entirely round the room. Small oak frames, ready made, can be purchased in many of the shops at a moderate cost, and are very suitable for framing photographs and engravings. In the room from which our sketch was made, a number of photographs had been framed quite plainly in this manner, and they were arranged in a row resting on the beading at the head of the dado. Above them, and cut so as to slightly overlap the top of the frames, a second beading had been nailed, and held the pictures In their places. Beadlngs suitable for this purpose can be obtained very cheaply, and for a similar decoration, of a smaller kind, cabinet photographs look wonderfully well and make an interesting addition to a room. Pictures or photographs so arranged In no way interfere with lar ger pictures that may be hung above them. Long Sleeves. Long sleeves, even in the more dressy blouse, will be much worn, and this is where the clever woman in buy ing either the ready-made or the mate rials to make herself will seek for novel ideas, and she will find plenty of them. While they are all close fitting, they are trimmed in such a variety of ways (mousquetaire with a soft full frill running up the outside fold, tucks running around and going i the entire sleeve length, frills let in, on the outside from wrist to elbow, small cap effect, finished in rounding points from which depend short tassels, etc.) that each individual taste can be suited and still be in fashion. With these long, close sleeves, high, close fitting collars, topped with thick ruching, are the correct finish at the neck. When Hanging Curtains. A house decorator gives this impor tant advice to women who are arrang ing their homes. They should not hang curtains of one color against a wall paper of another color. They shoukl not join carpets of opposite Facial Distortion a Fre quent Fault of tfcs- YourgerQeocrsdioE? : A' .- - Do you realize how rare it Is to ace a stroag, quiet face? The next t.iue you go down the street in the cars look for one. If there were an epidemic of St Vi tus dance there might be some excuse for the. distorted countenances you see. The girl who does not bite hei lips. and. draw in her eyes toward her nose, arches her eyebrows (thinking it. coquettish), or puckers her mi.uth till one thinks of persimmons or a gathering thread. One would feel like laughing if it I did not seem more to be cried over. For much of this distorting is needless and all is disfiguring. Oddly enough, lack of facial repose is more noticea ble in women and girls than in meu or boys. Is it because the former are more self-conscious? There are some girls who think a quiet face must be a stupid one, so they smirk and jerk and shrug in the mistaken idea that they are animated. Forced piquancy has but one ending wrinkles for the piquant and sneer ing amusement for the looker-on. Many a woman spends a small fortune on electricity, cold packs and massage, when all she needs is to root out dis figuring habits. There is no wrinkle cure known that will conquer con firmed wrinkle-making. Sometimes facial distortion comes from bad eyesight or lack of nervous control. Whatever the cause, whether silliness or physical ills, try to get rid of it. Find out whether yours is a reiiose- ful face. Your family will be only too glad to give you the information. Then ask their help in making it so. You will not like that help. It grows deadly wearing to have friends say, just when you think yourself looking fine: "Milly, stop squinting;" "Mar garet, get away from that frown;" "Don't be coy, Violet." But endure it as you would a bad medicine. There is no remedy too severe in the interest of a restful face in this day of distortions. Plain features that are quiet as nature planned them have more real beauty than a Greek nose, a perfect mouth, and inspiring eyes that are always in motion. Fox furs are the leaders. Sleeves cannot grow any smaller. All the latest coats are directoire. Millinery wings are larger than ever. Long lines characterize every gar ment. The big pillow muff supersedes all others. In belts proper elastic will be the most popular. Not for years has parted hair been so fashionable. The one-piece dresses lead all others in popularity. The neck outline of bodices is likely to grow higher. Padded pipings with soutache are leading decorations. The sealskin coat will be more pop ular than for years. There is a fad for heavy embroidery on gauze stockings. Opposite Materials. In dress goods fabrics there is a merry war going on between the roughest Df lough tweeds and the soft est of satin weaves. Both are at the top of popularity, and each woman wants a suit of one and a gown of the other. colors. They should not put different papers on the walls of adjoining rooms which have wide archways or folding doors between. These are simple suggestions, but they mean a great deal. The woman who is guided by them will arrive at much better results than she who ignores them. When it is not possible to have the carpets alike in rooms that are joined by wide openings, a rug should be laid over the long seam to hide it. Relief for Tired Feet. Tired feet cause an almost unendur able pain, yet many suffer from such merely through carelessness in not having the heels of shoes straight ened. You know what it is to put on an old pair of shoes that have been cast aside for months, and if the heels are crooked it is almost an impossi bility to step in them, yet one will go on for weeks wearing high-heeled shoes that throw the ankles out of place. Burning feet are caused by poor circulation. This can be cured in a short time by plunging the feet into moderately hot water, then cold, and applying witch hazel or bay rum. AS A LAST RESORT MR. WM. F. VAHLBEKG. Mr. William F. Vahlberg, Oklahoma City. Okla., writes: " . "One bottle of Peruna which I have taken did more toward relieving me of an aggravated case of catarrh) of the stoatach, than years of treatment with tne oest pnysicians. "I had givem up hopes of relief, and only tried Peruna as a last resort "I shall continue using1 it. as I feel satisfied it will effect an entire anil permamemt cure. "I most cheerfully recommend Peruna to all who may read this." ' Peruna is usually taken as a last re sort Doctors h:ive been tried and failed. Other remedies have been used. Sanitariums have been visited. Travel has been resorted to. At last Peruna is tried. Belief is found. This history is repeated over and over again, every day in the year. It is such results as this that gives Peruna its unassailable hold upon the people. We could say nothing that would add force to sueh testimonials as tlie above. That people who have had catarrh and have tried every other remedy avail able, find relief in Peruna, constitutes the best argument that could be made. A Long Wait "Well, Jesse," said a New Engend er, on returning to his native Vermont town after an absence of several years, "how are things? Are you married yet? And did that rich old uncle of yours leave you any money?" "No, I ain't married yet; nor ain't likely to be, so far's I kin see.' an swered Jesse, despondently. "If Uncle Bill had done as he ought to, I s'pose I'd been settled down in a house of my own a long time ago." "So he didn't leave you a cent? That's too bad!" "Yes; an It puts me an Mary in an awful hard place. There ain't nothin for us t do now but to set down an' wait for some o' her folks to die."
