Victim of the Oyster Habit.

was a victim Of the oyster habit?
The writer was in an uptown cafe
the other evening, when gray-haired,
full-chested, big-framcd man came in
and ordered Blue Point oysters. He
ate a dozen, ordered another dozen,
hcsitated, as if in doubt, paid his
check and went out. Three dozen
right down made ones eyes open, but
the waiter said: ooh, that's nothing.
He comes in here every night for raw
oysters. Sometimes he eats three
dozen, sometimes four dozen. He's

Beauty often depends on
plumpness; SO does comfort;
SO does health. If you get
thin, there is something
wrong, though you may feel
no sign Of it.
Thinness itself is a sign;
sometimes the first sign;
sometimes not.
The way to get back
plumpness is by CAREFUL
LIVING, which sometimes in
cludes the use of SCOTS
Emulsion of cod liver oil.
Let us send you-tree-a
little book which throws much
light on all these subjects.

MARRIED WOMEN AS BREADWINNERS.

MARRIED WOMEN 40 bhEAb w lNA>IhSs
One of the most important pieces of
information brought out at q recent labor
commission investigation in England was
that in relation to married women who
labor for living. 1t was found, first,
that of 5000 adult women employed in the
Bradford district only sixteen per cent.
were married, and, secondly, that all
were paid at the same rate for piece
work as the men. In view of the prev
alence of piecework in the textile in
dustries, this means much, says the Paul
Mall Budget. The Investigations, there
fore, have exploded what many people
were ready to accept as tiplcai state OF
things, justifying the most arbitrary
legislative interference with women's
work. We have always admitted that
the working wife, in the sense of the
working mother, represents phase OF
economic struggle which, like many
other phases, we view with regret. 1t
is a great pity, no doubt, that we can
not set them all free tomorrow by a
stroke of the pea to devote themselves to
their home duties, which are probably
arduous enough without the aggravatlon
of having to toll in factory to keep the
home itself going. But the way IN
which people exaggerate an evil from
which they then proceed to draw ex-
IRENE differences is striking instance Of
the need for the most vigilant care OF the
interests of the working women On the
| labor commission.

A Collection Of Horns.

There is in a house in San Antonio,
Texas. a collection of antlers and horns
worth the while of any one interested in
such matters to turn aside for a moment
to see. The walls are completely COW
cred with heads, antlers and horns, some
600 sets in all. The great majority are
of deer-mostly of Virginia deer-but
many of the black tail species. Among
them are many abnormal formations and
freaks. Ore set has forty-two prongs,a land
there are many of far more than the Or
binary number.
There are three pairs Of locked antlers,
having been found in that condition.
There were heads and horns of OK, ram,
Rocky Mountain sheep, Rocky Mountain
goat, antelope, moose, caribou, cash
mere goat, ibex, bison and common
GOAT, chamoise and African antelope Of
one or two kinds. There was a domestic
ram With four horns, another with five,
cashmere goat with four, steer with
long horns, one pointed straight back at
right angles to the other, set of moose
anters with twenty prongs, two OF
caribou each with twentyseven prongs,
but finest Of all, to my mind, the head OF
Texas steer with finely polished, SYM
metrical horns, running out in a slight
! spiral and extending seven feet one inch
from tip to tip. The collection had cost

Do not try to mold the others ideas,
or principles, or manners to the pat.
tern Of your own.
Seek the influence each other only
by the power Of higher example.
By your worthiness and culture

not feel that marriage gives you any
right to demand, or dictate, or crltl'
else.
Maintain and allow the same free
dom that exists between good and

Never ask personal questions nor
seek explanations, for you are not a
hundreth part as responsible for each
other as you are apt to imagine.
Let your love be founded In admira.

Strive to correct your own faults
and study to make the other happy,
and be exceedingly careful that you
never reverse this rule.
Keep your most refined and gentle
manner for the home.
Never refer to a mistake that was
made with good intentions.
When a wrong is pardoned bury it
in oblivion.
Consider the others honor your own
aud shield each others weaknesses
with sacred jealousy.
Remember that ill-temper nearly
always comes of disappointment or
overwork or physical suffering.
Treat each other as courteously in
private as you treat your friends in
the draWing-rOOm.
Never allow intimacy to become
familiarity.
Be rivalsi in generosity and let mis-
understanding die for want of words
Consider marriage as the partner
ship Of equals.
Share the joys and sorrows OF life,
It's tolls and profits, as equal partners
should. -Blandon Buckshaw.
