The coPPeR,s LITTLE JOKE.
10 Afforded Him Less Fun at His Wifes
Expense Than He Had Counted On.


A great deal of amusement was
caused on an east bound electric car the
other afternoon by a waggish police
man, who selected his wife for his vic
tim. The policeman had done duty at
the ball park, and his wife had been to
see the game. While the crowd was
leaving the woman stood about the
front of the park and waited for her
husband to ride up town with him. He
finally arrived, and the pair boarded a
crowded car. Both were young and only
recently married, and they enjoyed
themselves hugely on the way.
The woman wore a handsome little
gold watch, evidently a present from
her husband. While half the people in
the car were looking, and while his
wife was speaking to a woman acquaint-
snce outside the car, the policeman deft-
" took the watch from his wife's pocket
and transferred it to his pistol pocket.
When the car reached Eighteenth street,
the policeman remarked that it was
few minutes past o'clock, and every
body i'll the car looked at the police
man 8 wife
OF course she did what every one in
the car expected she would. She felt for
her watch. 1t seemed as if a sudden
violent pain had attacked the woman 5
heart. Her face became very pale, and
her eyes dilated Her husband seemed
greatly alarmed and asked her what the
matter was She looked over the crowd
in the car like a frightened fawn. 1t
was full minute before she could
speak Then she whispered in her i.us-
bands ear loud enough for the intensely
interested spectators to hear, Il have
been touched; some one has stolen my
watchW Her eyes began to grow dim,
and before the policeman could answer
a big tear rolled down her cheek and
fell into her lap
Here is the watch. l was only jOk-
ing with you. " And the policeman felt
back for his pocket.
Then a look Of dismay oyerspread his
face The watch had disappeared. he
felt in first one pocket and then another
and finally turned all his pockets wrong
side ont. He worked rapidly toward the
last and perspired good deal His wife
looked on in open mouthed astonish-
ment. SO did the other people in the
car. All had smiled and looked out the
windows Of the car when the woman
first discovered that her watch was
gone, but when her husband failed to
produce it, after having told her that
he had taken it, the people sat upright
and watched the hunt for the missing
timepiece with great interest
Finally quiet appearing young man,
who sat in the rear Of the car, arose and
handed the watch to the policeman 5
wife. Il just wanted to teach your hus-
band a lesson, " he said.
And the crowd Of passengers gave vent
to a prolonged hearty laugh, and the po-
liceman and his wife finally joined in the
merriment, though they were a little
slow to appreciate the joke. Louisville

ADVICE FOR The SUMNER.
Some Excellent Notions on an old bu
Timely Subject.

Some Excellent Notions on an old but
Timely Subject.
Abstain from tea and coffee, even
cocoa and chocolate, if the sacrifice is
not too great. Drink plenty Of milk,
with the addition of little lime water,
if your digestion has been impaired
Cream is still better, as it brings back
plumpness and smoothes the wrinkles
that winter has made. A raw lemon or
glass Of sour lemonade every morning
will bring the color back to your cheeks.
If fruit can be had in large quantities,
medicine will not be needed to clear the
complexion and blood. Fruit, cereal
and a graham cracker or two, make
GOOD breakfast menu. Oatmeal is lit
tie too heavy for spring; rice, cracked
or whole hominy, or yellow cornmeal,
should be substituted. Luncheons should
consist of entire wheat bread and butter,
cream or cheese, graham or oatmeal
crackers, soft boiled eggs, salad and
more fruit. For dinner soup is good If
YOU like it, a very little bit Of chop or
toast if you must have meat. More salad,
made of fresh greens, vegetables as you
like them and still more fruit.
No sweets, except stewed fruit, brown
sugar, or pure maple sugar; nothing
else, unless it be watercress. No blood
medicine can equal the cress when fresh
and sprinkled with lemon juice. Its eff
feet upon the complexion is wonderful
The more exercise you take the better.
The amount of exercise, though, must
be regulated by the period Of rest that
can follow it. AS to bathing, twice a
dav is not too often. Take cold sponge
in the morning and a good rub with
thick towel and few moments OF exer-
else. This will make you feel more like
working than you have felt for months.
The bath at night with wSrm water and
soap will make you sic 4 like weary
baby and wake like happy child-that
is. if your room was well ventilated. If
you are very thin, rub yourself with CO.
coanut or olive oil every night, and use
bav rum in the water that you battle
your face and hands and feet in. Donot
read, write or study until you are quite
warm again, and i'll all things be mod
