II the city, and becoming i'll was moi
able or willing to let her condition be
known to even such as she had. She
bad been helpless and in considerable
need Of attention for several DAYS. when
one evening, after night had fallen, four
black robed figures, with faces. hidden
and only holes cut through the somber
cloth for eyes, appeared in her room.
Almost swooning with terror she made
frantic appeal, which was met with a
soothing mur1nur that did not much re-
assure her, and the stretchor which they
brought was placed at her bedside.
Passive and helpless after the first out
burst, she was slipped into it, cloth
thrown over her and she felt herself
borne to the street.
Silently and swiftly she was conveyed
some distance, then building was en-
tered, and presently she found herself in
a hospital ward, where ever. care and
devotion were shown to her. Later she
learned that her case had come to the
notice of the famous Order of the Miseri-
corde, and its efficient, if somewhat mys-
FERROUS, ministration was the result.
All ranks and conditions of Florentine
society hold membership in this order;
the shrouding robes conceal a peer as
often as pauper, and are worn that
service without ostentation may be rem

Il bishop at a Prize Eight.

1t Is not often that a bishop is called
on 10 give his assistance in carrying on
prize fight, but such was the actua1
experience of the Bishop of Bedford.
Inc other evening the bishop was ad
dressing q meeting in the east end Of
London. and related the FOLLOWING
reminlscence of the time when he was
rector of SpitaltfeIds. On one occo-
sion there happened to be a fight oaing
on just outside the church door an5
as the rector was observed passing bv
he was called on to give his assistance
as referee. The question the combat
ants wanted settled was whether ona
OF the pugilists was capable or incaDa-
ole OF sustaining another round.
since l was appointed referee y said
the bishop, Il was bound to speak the
truth, and gave it as my opinion that
one of the parties, with a rather varia-
gated countenance, was capable of
another round. They were, therefore
just squarinS up to finish the bout
when the police happily appeared upon
the scene, and l was relieved of nv
functions. l have never assisted ct .

The boy stood listening with indiifer-

The doctor drew the child kindly toward
him and inquired:
Is it true that you wish to hurt your
little brother?'
With perfect composure the little one
replied:
81 viii kill him-yes, yes-I will kill
him!''
The doctor glanced at the father and
asked in low voice:
'Do you drink?'
The wife exclaimed Indignantly:
He, sir! Why, he never enters a
public house and has never come home

They were quite sincere. Neverthe-
less the doctor said:

Beauty Before Health.

| DR.. Louise Fiske Bryson reverses the
theory Of health as means of beauty
and advocates beauty as a means Of
health. She afirms that systematic eff
forts to be beautiful will insure a fair
degree Of health, and that happiness is
the best safeguard against vice. DR..
Bryson says that the prayer of the New
York child, Lord, make us very sty-
lish, is an aspiration based upon sound
scientific principles and is worthy Of
commentator.
''Wh&t is it?' said the little doctor, in
speaking on this subject few days
since, what is it that makes such a diff
ference between one woman and an
Other-an intangible, indefinable some
thing which will make girl of indefi-
mite traits and Indifferent features
Infinitely more attractive than many
others of faultless features and innu-
merable stroug points? 1t is the quality
popularity known as style.
lit Is the outward and visible sign of
an inward and reserve force. Care of
the body, the feet, the complexion are
all necessary to secure this outward at
tractiveness, and the expression of the
face must also be cultivated by g. con-
slant preference of higher thoughts over
lower ones, for this is the essence of intel
lectual living and can be secured by all.
Il would sum up the great secrets Of
beauty and therefore of health" said
Dr. BrysCn, ''as follows:
Moderation in eating and drinking;
short hours of labor and study; regulari-
ty IN exercise and rest; cleanliness and,
above all, equanim1ty of temper and
equality of temperature. To be good
looking and to be physically well one
must IN general be happy. To be happy
IS a duty, just as style is q duty, and
Doth are IN a great measure an affair Of
intellect and management. The ardent
pursuit of good looks sums I'D the best
here Is in hygiene, and is legitimate
means of health"
Here Is something to think about. Is
not the duty of every woman to make
study of herself. discover her strong
'olnts and make the very most Of them?

General Spinner. when treasurer OF
the United States, once said: "a man
will examine a note Systematically and
adduce logically from the imperfect en-.
craving, blurred vignette or indistinct
signature that it is counterfeit, and he
will be wrong four cases out of ten. A
woman picks up a note, looks at it in
an apparently careless manner after
her own fashion, and says: That is
counterfeit 'Whyg the division chief
will ask, and she will be sure to answer,
Because it is, and she is right eleven
cases out of twelve"
1t would be wrong to say that these
