SWAGGER LENTEN PASTIMES.

"When Lent comes [ shall have
plenty Of time to see all my friends" :"
SO says many a woman who has found
the days all too short in the gay sea
son just past. SO long before Lent
begins she spends many valuable min
utes in planning what she shall do
with the time she will have, and con
sequently is brought up to a very
sharp turn on Ash Wednesday when
the circulars and notices of the various
societies and clubs she has joined for
the Lenten season begin to arrive
Churchgoing is fashionable
fashionable, and at least once a day
from half an hour to an hour must be
devoted to this interest. Private the
aG1cals, musicales and reading classes
soon fill up forty light hours out of
every twenty-four. There seems to
be a popular fallacy that different
coiored z OWNS are worn at this period
of fasting than during the rest of the
winter, but [ have come to the conclu-
sion it is only because of the warmer
weather and the natural inclinatiCns
to wear lighter clothes than during
the season of frost and snow
In the shops one is occasionally
shown gowns which are said to be
Lenten gowns. They are uniformly
gray or heliotrope, but l fail to see
any great difference in appearance
from those that are worn all along.
One very pretty gown worn on Ash
Wednesday by religious devotee was
really made for the occasion. 1t was
extremely artistic in the pale gray
coloring and straight lines of which it
was fashioned and the huge bunch of
violets worn with it contrasted very
handsomely with the broad chinchilla
collar and gray bonnet.
Two young girls l saw the other
day wore light gray cloth suits trim
med with gray krimmer, with tiny
toques edged with the same fur.
These costumes might have been call
ed Lenten, but as each girl had pair
of skates over her arm, the more nat
ural inference was that they were
skating costumes. Black and white
is being worn again, and perhaps this
is on account of Lent. but | have seen
black and white worn when one does
not know exactly what else to wear.

FATAL FOLDING BEDS.
A Device to Prevent the Crushing to
Death of Sleeping Victims.

Every few days we read about peo-
pie being caught in folding beds and
stranglcd or crushed to death or rem
dered cripples for life" said mechanic.
at is easy to prevent this. Every
folding bed can Se easily fitted with
hooks and bolts that will fasten to un-
obstrusive staples or sockets in the
floor and make it impossible to close
the bed without unfastening them OF
pulling up the floor. Every one of
them should have some protection OF
this nature.
a friend of mine. who travels good
deal and often stops at hotels were
folding beds are used, carries a strong,
nickeled chain-like those used in
hanging window-weig ghts-in his valise,
and at either end there is a good, stout
screw-eve. The chain is about six
feet long and takes up scarcely any
room. When he strikes a hotel with
folding beds he lets the bed down.
screws one of the screw-eyes in the
floor on one side of the bed at the foot,
carries the chain over the frame and
under the mattress to the other side,
draws the chain taut, and sinks the
other ScrcW-eye into the floor.
This method would not be good
one to use in everyday practice, but
my friend adopted it after he had had
an adventure with one folding bed
that nearly cost him his life. Nobody
should purchase folding bed that Is
not provided with some attaChmen;
that will lock it so that it can not be
closed by accident. They are as
dangerous rs unloaded guns. N. I.

RECENT DISCOVERIES.

Although many new and important dis
coveries have recently been made in various
sciences, there is probably none of greater
importance to the people than the one re-
Gently made by DIR. Shoop, which is attract
ing the attention of physicians and all class
es of people throughout the world.
We refer to the discovery as to the cause
of chronic diseases of the stomach, liver, kid
neys and internal organs.
The doctor has traced the cause 10 certain
nerves that have control of these organs, and
by prescribing DR.. Shoop's RESTORATIVE, a
preparation he prepares to act upon these
special nerves, the cause is removed and with
it the disease.

To Stop HiccOugli.

A good deal of comment has been made
upon an alleged discovery by a French ply
sician, and foreign medical journal has
given it considerable space in its columns.
Tho now idea is to the effect that snuff
administered until sneezing sets in will
stop serious cases of hccOugh. 1t is n GU
rious and amusing fact that many doctors
sharply resent any suggestion that they
might employ "old women's remedies, "
and when something simple is proposed
they will have none of it. SneeZing to
stop hiccough has been a school childs and
old nurses remedy in this country for
half century at least. Snuff takers need
feel no satisfaction in the foreign physi-
clans discovery, for the old nurse and the
children used the fraycd out corner of an
old handkerchief, or lacking that, the
apron, rolling it to tiny point ana touch
ing the inner membrane of the nostril
with the soft mttslin. If the doctor will
try a bit of rag and leave the snuff out
of the case entirely, the patient will re
cover moro quiGkly.-New York Ledger.

HIS WIFE KNEW 1T.
So When He Told Her She Was Not the

told the following story on himself:
Its just this way, you know" he be-
gan. AT intervals of irregular length l
take q drop too much. l had done so this
night or morning, forget now which it
was, and ON reaching home, realizing that
was somewhat unsteady, made prepara-
tions to get beneath the sheets without
aroasing anybody in the house. l took off
my Shoes crawled over the back fence and
disrobed before entering the bedroom, and
then, in order not to make the slightest
noise, climbed over the foot of the bed,
and to my great satisfaction, reached my
goal as quietly as l had wished. There
was no sound from any one. Everybody
slept peacefully, and even the dog was si-
lent. l fell asleep as speedily as only q
man with q clear conscience can. How
long l slept don't know. That is imma
terial. But had dream and hence the
milk in the cocoanut.
Il dreamed that my feet were paralyzed.
/ thought the paralysis was moving up

ono is pnraiyzed in the feet if he can keep
the paralysis below the heart, his life is
safe, but that if it rises above his heart he
is a 'gonerhiHThe paralysis reached my
knees. L struggled hard, but ii got TO my
hips and kept on rising. BY my strug
giles | succeeded in retarding but not alb;
solutcly checking it. Finally, after horI
rible several hours wrestle, it seemed to
me, found that my whole body was in
the grasp of paralysis and that its fingers
were clasping my throat. l made one last
effort to release myself, and at the same
time l yelled. The yell awole me. And
it must have awakened my wife, for, ris-
ing, she looked at me and said: p, &

'Umph!' she exclaimed, turning over

AT ll.3O the case of George johnson vs..
Alfred G. johnson. both of Wayne, was
taken up, Beane & Beane appearing for the
plaintiff, and Heath & Tuell for the defend
ant. 1t is an action of replevin for an
engine lathe and power drill of the alleged
value of $3.50. The question at issue is
which has the legal title to the property.
The parties are brothers and were at one
time interested in the johnson Woolen Co.
of Wayne.
The plaintiff says that the property in
question was bought by the defendant for
the woolen company and was in fact their
property; that it was bought for the purpose
of repairing the machinery of the company
and was put into the building of another
brother, but with the machinery and tools
of the defendant; that the plsintff subse
quently, having a claim against the com
pany, sued and levied upon the lathe and
drill upon judgment and execution, as the
property of the company, and fiually
brought this suit of replevin to enforce his
title. a. .a..s
The defendant resists on the ground that
tbs property is his, bought with. his own
money and not with the companys. The
testimony was concluded at ) o'clock. The
CLOSING argument for the defendant was
furnished when court adjourned. '..-
