The Origin of These WeIl-Known
Articles Among the Romans.
Chambers Journal
These are said TO have been invented
in Italy. Certainly they were in COM
mon use among the Romans. In Mar
tails 'EpigramS" there are frequent.
references to the ''dentiscalpium,"
sometimes reviling its abuse, sometimes
praising its use. The particular form
of toothpick which Martial preferred
was pointed strip of maStic wood; butt
in default OF that, he recommends a.
quill. Singularly enough. the useful
instrument was regarded as an innova-
ton in Queen EliZabeth's time. The
Bastard. in liking john" sneers at
Your traveller
He and his too.hpick at my worship's mess"
Travellers in France and Italy, it
seems. brought toothpicks back and
used them Ostentatiously; aid all those
who affected foreign fashions sedulously
initiated them. Commonly a case of
toothpicks made of wood was carried
about by fine gentlemen. A more vio-
lent eccentricity OF fashion is pc nted at
by Sir Thomas Overbury. who de-
scribes a courtier as walking in st.
Paul's with toothpick in Ihis hat, a
cape cloak and a long stocking" Ap-
parently the Johnny" of the present
day, who is unromlttng i'm his use of
the homely quill, has inherited the
toothpick and his fiourishing display of
it from the ccxcom5s that thronged the
court of the virgin queen.

SHE DIDN'T CARE FO LOOKS
But Then a Few Details Must Be
Looked After.
Detroit Tribune.

Detroit Tribune.
An optimistic age would pronounce
her hair golden, but there was mole
on her neck which carried three hairs,
and as she stood in careless grace be-
fore her mirror, with sea-green dress
half revealing the idiosyncrasies of her
figure, the most charitable judgment
would net call her pretty.
II don't care for looks"
An expression of deep content per-
meated her countenanco as she reached
for the pigment and with deft stroke
supplied rich red color for her lips
and cheeks"
Looks are superficial"
With touch of the pencil she dark
ened the lids of her eyes, and all over
spread snowy powder, which lent to
her face the delicacy OF texture of satin
fabric.
Beauty is ephemeraL
With astonishing dexterity she fast
ened to various portions of her anatomy
divers mechanical devices, obviously
constructed to supplement the achieve
mentS of fOrgetful nature.
"Outward charms fade as meltS the
morning mists before the SUM-"
Through the agency of a fine pair of
tweezerS she removed her mouStache.
Il don't care for looks"
Heating an iron to cherry red she
burned the top off the wart on the back
Of her hand
Il have no time to be handsome"
Before she finished dressing she drank
a lot of arsenic for her complexion. and
caused her maid to pound her for two
hours to induce plumpnesS.

PeeIing an Orange.
Meehan's Monthly.

Meehan's Nj onthly.
1t is said that small instrument has
.,eea invented by which an orange may
be neatly peeled without soiling the
hands. This good result can be readily
obtained without anything special il
only one knows how. The tibers of
plants. including the fibers of oranges,
all fork from the bottom upwards, and
it is the attempt to split anything
against the grain which makes
splitting difficult. If one wants
to peel an orange without soiling
the hands, all that is necessary to DC
done is to cut with knife very small
circle around the stem end. and then
mark dividing lines from the stem to
the summit. at points on the surface of
the orange. The skin can then be drawn
off just as easily as one may draw fin
ger from glove. This suggestion may
not only apply to the peeing OF an
orange, but also to the splitting Of Il
stick. Those who make hoops for bar
relS split the hoop in order to make
them, but they 90 not commence with
the top OF slender portion of the pole
and split downwards. They could not
do this; but by taking the thicker end
and working from the thick to the thin,
no trouble is found--the pole splits
easily.

Amid chrysanthemums was cele-
brated the pretty ceremony that united
in marriage Miss Mary Barnes and

day evening, at the home of the brides
mother, Mrs. b. l.. Barnes, 1924 Nicollet

fifty friends. The bride was attired in
white silk with point lace and pearl
garniture and a pearl necklace, and was
attended by Miss Ella Walker, who was
attired in white silk, and carried pink
roses. John A. May, of ST. Paul,
attended the groom, and little Miss

SHE HAS "A SUPERB FIGURE
The American Girl Getting to Be
Larger and More Robust.

Young Ladies Bazaar.
The American girl of today has more
arms, neck and bust than formerly.
Twenty years ago her arms were apt to
be skinny and the bones In her neck
showed. TO a certain extent these
things arc true now, so it is often re-
marked that English young women have
better necks and shoulders than those
of this country, though their faces are
not so pretty.
The present style of corsage makes
the bust seem high and the waist as
long as possible. the latter effect being
heightened by making thescorset SO as TO
represS and contne both bust and hips.
One must commend the first point.
which is an improvement on the old
fashion requiring that the bust must be
low. A low bust is mark of an In
ferior physical type, as you may observe
in many tribes Of savages. In that re-
spect it is like an over-long waist.
| which can never properly be considered
beautiful.
after while we shall see a revolution
in the style, which shall demand that
the hips appear as high as possible,so as
to give apparent length to the legs and
the most graceful effects of drapery.
Look at the Greek statues and under
stand what mean.

A POETS PRESCRIPTION.
The Good Deed OF DIR. Goldsmith
CharitabIy Plagiarized.

The Good Deed OF DIR. Goldsmith
Charitably Plagiarized.
Sala's Journal.
A poor woman, understanding that
DR.. Goldsmith was a physician, and
hearing OF his great humanity, solicited
him, by letter, to send her something
for her husband, who had lost his app e.
tite, and was reduced to most meIan-
choly state. The good-natured poet
waited Oil her instantly, and, after some
discourse with his patient, found him
sinking with sickness and poverty. The
doctor told the honest pair that they
should hear from him in an hour. when
he would send them some pills which he
believed would prove etiicacious.
He Immediately went home and put
ten guineas into chip box, with the
following label: "rhese mus. be used
as necessities require; be patient and
of good heart" He sent his servant
with this prescription to the comfortlesS
mourner. who found it contained a
remedy superior to anything Galen or
his disciples could ever administer.
Precisely the same story is told of
Thackeray, who left Oh the mantleplcce
of an INDECENT and invalid friend little
round box full of .SovereignS,l with the
inscription: "rhese pills are to be
taken when required" 1t was plagiar-
ism from Goldsmith perhaps, but you
cannot be wrong if you initiate good
things. We should be never tired of
plagiarsing from the good Samarita H..
Another instance of similar kind is
recalled when doctor. who had at
tended the patient and who was a pc
culiarly gruff and ill-tempered man, was
CONCENTRATING himself upon the skill
he had used in pulling the sufferer
through his illness.

ELECTRIC CARS.
a Few Useful Things to Know

a Few Useful Things to Know
About Them.
St. Louis Republic.
do you know why an electric car
goes up hill slowly, as though drawn Ivy
pony mules?" asked an electrician the
other day.
''There are some things l do not
know" responded, land that's one Of
them"
"Well. I'll tell you" said he. "There
is certain amOuntOf voltage or electro
motive force distributed over the line.
and in order to keep each car running
at general average rate or speed no
car can be allowed 10 uSurp more than
its share of pressure. For instance, II
one electric car should be thrown wide
open and permitted to run up hill at the
same rate of speed it de5cends hill it
would for Il minute reduce the time ot
every other car on the road. Hence the
motormen have positive orders about
slowing down at every pronounced rise
i'll the roadbed
Another thing" continued the talk
alive electrician. "A great many people
wonder why there are so many overhead
wires along an electric road, and which
vi lI-eil are alive OF dangerous. NiHcIy
nine persons out of hundred know
nothing whatever about it, You have
noticed that alongside the pavement on
both sides of the street is strung large,
well-inSulated wire. almost large enough
to he cable. That is the feeder In
other words, that wire carries the cur
rent from the power house. and at Ger
tain intervals contributes it to the troll
ley wire. 1t is we'll nigh impossible for
an accident to happen to the feeder. but
even then there would have TO be a
direct ground connection before mach
damage could be done. If the feeder
should break and fall to the ground it
would emit blaze which would prove
warning to all paSserS-by
son either side of the trolley wire are
two wires which seem to De useless.
They are dead and are only intended to
shield the trolley. Suppose these wires
were not there and telephone wire
should fall across the trolley? In
stantly the voltage which transmits the
cars would be flashed into every tele-
phone which had connection. and the
result would be very severe shock.
AS it is, falling wires of any kind are
caught by the side wires, and hence
never reach the trolley wire. There's
your primer lesson in electricity. Some
day l will tell you about amp eres, volts
and OhmS."
