but il necessitates fb. you know, and it is
! always well to avoid that. The better way
is to have your programme h.iea.
But can that always be done?" asked
the scribe, innocent.y.
There was tone of contempt In Inc re-
ply-contempt for the ignorance displayed
by the question.
''Of course it cam" she said. The
girls will fill it up for you IN the
dressing-room. Then it can be honestly
said that the programme IS full.
and yet the fictitious names
and initials can be rubbed out as often as
desired. 1t is everything for truth, you
see. Well, there are not many more com
mon ones. Sometimes the trimmings to
dress will tear at most opportune moment
and the young lady will spend the re-

Il don't recall single in

to escape dance with a great bore, or To

But where there are no programmes"
suggested the reporter
Then matters are very much simpi!-

ally improyise one on their cuffs, or card
or something. which, by the way. is very
rude thing to do. as the hostess would have
supplied programmes had she desired to
have them. But, nevertheless, they do it,
and as the young lady has none, it is
very simple matter for her to for
get any dance she wishes. Or. if he asks
for the fifth waltz. it is very easy 10 ex

an easy matter to escape dances where there

men practice their deceptions, too
Let a man come up and
say in confident tone: This

Tn the practice of a skillful physician there
occur many cases like the cases of catarrh
mentioned. In many cases the patients have
pains about the chest and sides, and some
times in the back They feel dull and sleep
the mouth has bad taste. especially in the
morning. A SORT OF sticky slime collects about
the teeth The appetite is poor. There is
feeling like a heavy load on the stomach,
sometimes faint, al-gone sensation at the
pit OF the stomach which food does not satisfy.
The eyes are sunken, the hands and feet be-
come cold and feel clammy. After while
cough sets in, at first dry, but after few
months it is attended with greenish colored
expectoration. The patient feels tired all
the while, and sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After a time he becomes nervous,
irritable and gloomy and has evil ferehoa.-
ings. There is giddness, sort of wbi,iinc
sensation in the head when rising ND sind
denly. The bowels become coS,Iye. the skin
is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes
thickh and stagnant tbI whites of the eyes
become tinged WITH yellow; the kidne secre-
tions become seanty aud high colored, depos-
ting sediment after standing. There is
frequently splitting up of the food. some
times with sour taste and sometimes with
sweetish taste; this is frequently attended
with palpitation OF the heart and asthmatic
symptoms.

convenient double use of why which makes

she is the one woman in the world
''What is he frightened about then?'

pendent"
Doesn't she care about him?'
Dear me. yes; she thinks the sun rises
and sets for his benefit. But she's been 80
used to taking care of herself that Fred
doesn't know how he's going to manage
her.
why couldn't he give her an allow

He told me he said something about that
to her, and she blaZed up and asked him if
he didn't believe she trusted him. It's just
this way: I've talked it over a good deal
with Fred and tried to advise him III a SIS

TO marry girl like you or me who has
always had to run to her father or brother,
or some masculine relation. every time she
wants paper of pins When a girl has
earned her own money it is a good deal
harder for her to go meekly to her husband
after she's married and ask for every cent
she has. as if sne was a beggar.
You can see how it is yourself
You hate to ask your father for
money now when he is cross, ana just fancy
how much harder it would be if if was your
husband But then we are used To asking
somebody, and Miss - isn't. Fred likes
her to be high-spiuted. and yet lie wishes

Parlors That Crush Out Home Life

Did you ever hear of tyrannical parlors?
The costly carpets and curtains. the expen-
sive ornaments. give subdued tone TO the
room destructive to real hospitality and good
times. A neghborhood social met from
house to house. One of the members was
bright boy; his mother had one of these
tyrannlcal parlors. given up to for
mality and short calls. The bright
boy said at one of the meetings:
Il would like to invite you to my house,
but we never have good times in our stuck
up drawing-rOom." The little fellow felt
the difference between his own home sur
roundings and that of some Others of the
social club. At one house the wise parents
made the parl0r so attractive that the boys
and girls of the family said they would
rather be at home than anywhere else"
The carpet was not too nice to dance on or
even to play blind mans buff.
The chairs and tables were not heavy
and cumbersome, but were light enough to
be tucked away. leaving clear space. The
children were encouraged to get up eharades
and tahleaux. A magic lantern exhibition
added variety. and now and then card
party. but that was very wrong" says
one stern parent Mol Father and mother

so much danger that the children would seek
