that he HAD thought several times of
trying to find wife. He so seldom
got an hour away from business,
however. and knew so few ladies
that he was at loss how to proceed,
and here was one ready found. His
business on change had taught him
the need of swapping bargain when
he came across one, and he deter
mined then and there to marry his
mistaken pursuer.
We'll, Stella" he said boldly,
Its clear that both you and have
been fooled with. What do you say
to our finishing it by taking it in
earnest and getting marriedI It's
sudden, know, and we've only seen
each other about a quarter of an
hour, but I'm satisfied if you are"

murmured. II don't know what to
say, I'm sure"
But you were willing to marry

More fool you," said Mr.. Stand
we'll afterward. 1T was a speoula-
tive action, and they deserved to
lose every ha'penny. They could
never have got anything out of a

But Mark had his own way and
paid all the costs on both sides and
married the plaintiff, and he de-
olares she was cheap at the price.
They are remarkably happy

When md How to Bnfha.

DR.. Cyrus Edison, ex- president Of
the New York board of health, writes
concerning bathing in The Ladies'
Home Journal: "A cold douche or
any form of shower bath should not
be used when q person Is tired or
exhausted from any cause, as the
reaction, on which the shook de-
ponds for its beneficial effect, does
not follow effeotually when the sys-
tenn is tired.
1.-THE result of the shower in such
case Is apt to be internal conges-
ton, which may be disastrous It
does not follow, however, that per-
spring person should not bathe un-
til cooled off. AS q matter Of fact,
If the person is not exhausted the
fact that the pores are open is rather
advantageous than otherwise, as the
reaction is enhanced and will prob
ably follow more energetically. A
bath should never be taken within
two hours of a hearty meal. The
first effect of immersion in warm or
In cold water is to seriously derange
the digestive process if that is pro-
crossing at the time and by a physi-
illogical effect that naturally follows
to unbalanoe or derange the whole
nervous system. The result of this
Is extremely dangerous to the
bather. There are numerous in
stances of severe illness and even of
death caused by bathing while tho
stomach was full. :"

Copying Nature In Glass.

Glassware is being developed in
many ways, particularly in the
American factories. Candlesticks are
made in exact imitation of tulips,
lilies and any flower which has a
deep cup in which to hold the can
die. Tulips in their natural colors,
the handsome blossom springing out
above the green stem, make a charm
ing decoration for the dinner table.
Exquisite vases and jardinieres of
glass, veined with iridescent oolors,
are the recent product of one Ameri-
can firm. 1t is difficult to describe
the rich and artistic effects of this
ware. One slender flower holder
has the tinting, shape and poise of q
Gala lily; another reflects the bloom
of the rose and has a stem of that
pretty red brown shade oharacteris-
ito of the flower. There are great
urn shaped vases In transparent
green with golden lights like sun
shine cleaning through them. The
orange amber and bronze colored or
naments are beautiful, and another
distinctive style of this ware resem-
bles pottery in its Opaque thickness
and gloss.
The purple jars veined with blood
red hues are exceedingly rich in col.
or, and others, in contrast with their
deep puppies, russets and browns,
shine with changing delicate tints
like the inner lining of a seashell
