The Real Bluebeard.

Bluebeard was a real character
named Giles de Laval, Marshal de
Retz, soldier Of France, at the
close of the Fourteenth and about
the beginning of the Fifteenth CEN
tury. He was man of great wealth,
but squandered his estates in dissi-
patton, and then, to recruit his re-
sources, resorted to alchemy. He
had several assistants in the search
for the philosophers stone, and the
diabolical rites employed by ths
searchers demanded the blood and
hearts Of young children. Boys
and girls of the neighborhood were,
on one pretext or another, enticed
into his power, and then put to
death under circumstances Of great
cruelty. Finally the disappearances
of childrendren became SO numer-
Gus that the authorities of the prov
ince and Of the kingdom took steps
to investigate. Suspicion was fixed
on Laval; he was arrested and was
persuaded or frightened into con-
fession. Although. according to his
confession, most of the bodies had
been burned, the remains of forty
six children were found at one of his
castles and Of eighty-two at another.
He was convicted and executed In
144O. The story of Bluebeard was
written by Perrault in the reign Of
Louis XIV and the name was de-
rived from the intensely blue black
beard of Laval, which gave him
among the country people the nick
name of Blue Beard"

cat, or the well-informed cow, who
know enough to rest after a meal.
Doctors make lots of money out OF
the objectionable ignorance of some
people who do not think it worth
while to learn the simplest rules as
to how to care for themselves
There is surprising popular lack
of information on the subject of the
powers and functions of courts. It
would be amusing in any ordinary
company to get the ideas of most
of those present on the distinctions
between the courts Of the United
States, the State, the county, and
the municipality, the limitations of
the civil and criminal courts. and
the powers of police magistrates.
It is common thing for people to
express surprise that on such brief
trials police magistrates should be
able to commit people to prison for
months. The fact is that police
magistrates have no such power,
although the form of expression
used in police reports, "He got six
MONTHS" might we'll lead to such a
belief. The fact is that the sentence
of Imprisonment in such cases is
alternative with the giving of bail
for good behavior. 1t is a common
thing for people who ought to know
better to sit all day in police court
only to find at the close that the
remedy they seek could only be had
in civil court.
Another surprising thing is the
unintelligent Judgment that many
people form as to the contents OF
newspapers. They swear by their
favorite journal and dispute state
ments that appear in other journals,
although such statements may be
merely official reports and authori-
tative reports of occurrences verified
on their faces.
The moment many people get out
of the common routine of daily life
they get bewildered. If they have
to go to bank they find it hard to
manage the instructions. IT they
have insurance, or travel, or death
in the family, or a wedding, they
are at loss what to do. Everything
goes wrong, and the event is bungled
for the want of intelligent direction
One department of learning is
too often neglected, and that is the
tricks and traps of swindiers. Il
is perpetual marvel that so many
people are taken in again and again
with the same old frauds that have
victimized others for years. There
is no excuse in these days of news
papers for any sane person of adult
age getting victimized by green
goods men, rpocketbook droppers
or sweaters, or card sharps, or bill
lard sharps, or sham beggars, OF
bogus reformers, or any other such
chestnuts. Not to know of them
| is to be convicted of gross lack o1
information, for which there is no
excuse.-N. Y. Sun.

Sponge Out the Headache.

The ordinary nervous headache
will be readily relieved and in many
cases entirely cured by removing
the waist of ones dress, knotting
the hair high up on the head out OF
the way, and while leaning over a
basin, placing a sponge soaked in
water as hot as it can be borne on
the back of the neck.
Repeat this many times, applying
the sponge behind the ears, and the
strained muscles and nerves that
have caused so much misery will
be felt to relax and smooth them
selves out. deliciously, and very
frequently the pain promptly van
ishes in consequence.
Every woman knows the aching
face and neck generally brought
home from hard days shopping
or from a long round of calls and
afternoon teas. She regards with
intense dissatisfaction the heavy
lines drawn around her eyes and
mouth by the long strain on the
facial muscles, and when she must
carry that work-countenance to a
dinner party or evening amusement
it robs her of all the pleasure to be
had in it. Cosmetics are not the
cure, nor bromides: nor the many
nerve sedatives to be had at the
drug, shop.
Use the sponge and hot water
again, bathing the face in water as
hot as it can be possibly borne,
apply the sponge over and over
again to the temples, throat and
behind the ears, where most of the
nerves and muscles of the head CEN
ter, and then bathe the face in water
running cold from the faucet. Color
and smoothness of outline come
back to the face and astonishing
freshness and comfort is the result,
and if nap of ten minutes can
follow every trace of fatigue will
vanish. The same remedy is inval-
liable for sunburn, and the worst
case of this latter affection of sensl-
tive skins will succumb to,the hot
water treatment. The cold douche
should not follow in this case; IN
stead light application OF vase
line or cold cream, which prevents

prevented inflammation. Nothing

been discovered as bathing them in
hot water, and neuralgia, nine casee

Horses Teeth.

When your horse grows thin and
yet eats we'll try big stones in his
mapeer. He eats too fast, and If
you compel him to pick out his
grain by smaller mouthfuls from
among the stones he will eat slower,
and of course digest better. Re-
member, too, that grooming is a
horses bath; a good grooming is
worth as much to horse as one
meal in four. Take the thin animal
to the dentist. A tooth may be

She Kissed the Paper.

A rich old man, according to the
Sun. took it into his head to marry
a young girl. She seemed devoted
to her lord and master, who was a
genuine Pooh Bah of relationship,
being husband, father, uncle and
friend all rolled into one. She was
congratulating herself upon the
success she was achieving as an old
mans darling, when she observed
marked change in his manner.
From being jovial, almost jolly,
he became silent, solemn, saturnine-
She saw what the matter was. He
was SO jealous that his fresh, ruddy
complexion became sicklied over
with the yellow hue of melancholy.
Strong in her innocence she deter
mined to bear his coldness in ST.
lence, and wait his good pleasure to
explain his conduct.
The fact is the husband thought
he had good cause for his jealousy,
for time and again he had, upon
entering his wite's room, detected
her in the act of pressing the most
impassioned kisses upon sheet of
rose-tinted paper. 1t was awful,
indeed, to tire SO quickly of her
aged lord, and his heart sank with
in him when he caught her in the
very act of covering one of these
rosy epistles with long and oft-re-
peated kisses.
One afternoon as he approached
the door leading into her dressing
room, there she stood before her
mirror with one Of those detestable
love letters in her hand, and en-
gagged in almost publicly and openly
pressing it to her lips, over and
over again, with great show of
fervor and feeling. He burst into
her presence with these words:
"This is infamous !"
The sheet of rose-tinted paper
fell from the poor woman's hands,
and she stood gazing upon the angry
features of her partner in life with
mouth and eyes wide distended.
While she was making an effort to
speak, the irate husband sprang
upon the paper. Judge of his
amazement upon finding that it
contained no writing. 1t was as
blank as his face at that very mo-
ment.
$50 he blurted out, "your lover
uses sympathetic ink! Not visible
until developed. Oh, but I'll de-
velop it! I'll get at the heart of
this mystery! I'll submit this love
letter to the best chemist in New
York city, mark my words !"
There was a burst of laughter,
and the wife said: "Oh, give me
back my lip stain, do, you dear old
ninny. The directions say, Kiss
ten times and l wasn't half done" T"
