He Was Made a Sergeant.

A pretty story. savoling Of the ro-
mantle, is told in the French press
about the kaiser. Recently his ma
Jesty went to the Berlin barracks
alone. The corporal on guard recog-
nized the kaiser Immediately, and sa-
luted him. The kaiser was pleased,
and, approaching the soldier said:
"Why do you look 50 sad corporlY
The corporal did not reply. The en-
peror then asked If he was disappoint-
ed in love. AT this the corporal found
his tongue, and replied that he wished
to marry Marguerite, the daughter Of
his sergennt-major, but that her faith
er would not give his consent until he
became a sergeant. "And do you love
her very much?' asked the kaiser
"Oh, yes" was the reply. Then"
said the emperor, go and tell your
future father-in-law that William ii.
makes you a sergeant"

He Took Advice.

n. du Maurier, his son tells us, had
no idea of appropriateness in dress,
and did not know one fashion from
another. my sisters" said Mr.. du
Maurier, looked to it that he got the
right things in his pictures. He would
come home sometimes and sketch
something which had attracted him in
a rasser-by on the street. Often it
would be some impossibly queer ar
rangement, and my sisters would pro-
test: why, father, you mustn't use
that in Punch. Nobody wears those
things now; they are dreadfully old
fashioned and he would give in imme-
diately to what he recognized ms their
superior Judgment" This will be a
blow to the hundreds OF people who
modelled their dress upon that Du
Maurier's men and women. His fash
ioIs, however, We're correct, for his
family saw to it that they Should be.

When your stomach begins to
trouble you, it needs help. The help
it needs is to digest your food, and,
until 1t gets it, you won't have any
peace. Stomach trouble is very dis

diseases begin with simple indigestion.

ST. Swithin of blessed memory must
be flattered at the frequent reference
to him the present summer For the
past month there has not been a day
when his name has not been on some
body's tongue more than once or twice
in the eastern and middle states.
Hundreds have called to mind the old
doggerel weather prediction for St.
Swlthin's day, "If St. Swithin's day be
tair, then 40 days 1t will be clear" If,
on the other hand, it rain on the good
saints day, then the prediction says
there will be falling weather every day
for 40 days. The saying has proved
true for nearly the allotted time in the
eastern part of the country at any rate.
Who was St. Swithin anyhow ? He
was a devout English priest who died
1895 years ago this July. A century
after his death they made a saint of
him. He was to be canonized July
IS, but on that day there came terri
BILE transforms, and they continued
without stopping for 40 days. During
all that time the body of poor St.
Swithin had to wait before it could be
.fnally buried in Winchester cathedral.
This long wait gave rise to the famous
weather prophecy.

Decline of Profanity

The habit of swearing is dying out
1t was within the memory of those who
do not like to think themselves old
very common. l have heard on what
l am sure is trustworthy authority OF
a clergyman of the last generation,
who, summoned to breakfast while at
his morning devotions, turned upon
the unfortunate messenger with the
exclamation: You! How dare
you interrupt my prayers ! " Much
less extreme instances are known to
many OF us which would now be sim
ply impossible.
Are we becom ing more pious7 That
is not the general impression. Is
the fiber of the race softening? That
is often maintained, but | do not
think successfully. The civil war IS
there to disprove it for Americans at
least. Or are we, as French men and
women did long ago, learning more
adequately to master the resources OF
our own tongue and becoming inde-
pendent of this crude and rather
stupid-to call it nothing worse
devlce?- Century.

Origin of the Three Goid Balls.

People who are compelled to 20 10
their Uncle for temporary advances
on personal property have often spec
ulated rs to the origin and signifl-
canoe Of the three balls which are the
most conspicuous exterior advertise
ments of the establishments apper-
taining to the aforesaid Uncle" The
pawnbrOkers sign was. originally.
the arms OF the famous family Of the
Medici in Italy. whose ancestor was a
physician and adopted as his device
three pills. The Medici became bank
ers and money lenders. and amassed
enormous wealth from lending money
at, the high rates of interest prevail
ing In their time. When banks were
established in other cities than Flor
ence, the Medic sign Of three sus-
pended balls became the mark of a
bank, and the practice spread into
France, Spain and Germany. BY and
by, however, as this sign was adopted
by q lower class OF money lenders,
who made advances on personal prop
erty. it fell into disrepute among the
higher grade Of financiers, and, being
dropped by the bankers. was still
continued by the lower class, and
finally was RESTRICTED entirely to such
money enders as received pledges as
security for loans.-St. Louis Demo

Open for a Settlement.

An old Swede farmer who lives on
the Baltimore and Ohio road, few
miles out of town, had the misfortune
to lose valuable colt the other day.
The animal jumped out of pasture,
ran down upon the railway and was
caught in cut by an express train.
The claim agent went out to effect an
amlcable settlement If possible with
the old man.
"We are very sorry, Of course, that
this affair happened" said the railway
man, "and hope it will not be nee
essary for US to go into court"
The old farmer looked at him sus-
piclously and shifted about uneasily,
but said nothing.
"You must remember" continued
the claim agent, that your colt was a
tresspasser on our property when the
accident occurred. We don't want
any litigation, however, if we can help
it, and we'd like to arrange settle
ment with you on friendly basis"
"Vell," slowly said the Swede, gay
tai you. Ay bin sorry das fool colt
runned on the railroad track, but ay
bin poor man. Ay skal give you two

Origin Of Table Utensils.

A writer attempts to trace table
utensils-most of them of recent in.
troduction--to their origin. The
Romans, he declares, took their meals
lying upon very low couches, and it
was not until about the time OF
Charlemagne that stand was used
around which guests were seated on
cushions, while the table made its APP
pearance in the middle ages, and with
it came benches with backs. The
Greeks and Romans ate from kind
Of porringer, yet during portion of
the middle ages slices of bread cut
round took the place of plates. The
spoon is very ancient, and many fine
specimens are in existence that were
used by the Egyptians in the seven
teenth century B. c. The knife,
though very old, had not come into
common use as a table utensil in the
tenth century. The fork was abso-
lutely unknown to the Greeks and
Romans, appeared only curiosity in
the middle ages and was first used
upon the table by Henry III. Drink
ing cups-in the middle ages made
from metal more or less precious
naturally dated from the remotest
antiquity. The use of glasses from
Venice began to be general in the
fifteenth century. Saltcellars appear
ed at a very early date and occupied
the place of honor at the banquets Of
the Greeks ard Romans, many of
them being made of gold and silver
and richly chased.-/tweIeys' CWen-

HOW TO QUIET THE eAsY.
The Best Way is to Gently Shut OF IN In
fapts breath.

rant
An infallible method for ouieting n
crying baby probably will never be
discovered.
Some entirely new methods have re.
Gently been introduced In some of the
New York hospitals which prove sue
cessful in IA larger percentage of cases
than the old-fashioned ways.
The new scientific method for quiet.
ing crying babies proceeds, upon an
entirely new principle. 1t disregards
the cause or source of irritation, but on
the other hand tries to train the baby
to practise self-control.
The scientific method Is based upon
the theory that the average baby is
strong enough to control itself in all
but cases OF very severe illness. 1t Is,
incidentally, very much more digni-
fled and entails far less effort than the
attempts most people make to quiet
their children The old plans Of try.
ing to catch the babys attention by
standing on ones head and by similar
violent methods are quite discarded.
Instead, as soon as the child cries
the nurse catches II up, and, holding
1t gently. places her hand over its
mouth and nose so that IL cannot
breathe. The crying will obviously
soon come to stop. The hand need
not be held very tightly over the face,
since the object Is merely to produce
n slight smothering. AS soon as the
crying ceases the hand is removed. IL
the crying recommences, as it is very
likely to do, the same operation is in
stantly repeated. This is continued
until the baby imagines that the more
or less painful stoppages of the breath
are caused by It's own efforts to scream.
AS soon as it grasps this idea it is care
full to keep quiet. 1t is claimed that
the plan works like a charm. and that
wonderful selfcontrol is exhibited by
infants treated in this way, even when
less than three months old.-New York

To Make Rice Throwing Unpopular.

1t is stated that the management OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad has issued
orders to put stop to the practice of
throwing rice at brides and grooms
who take their trains. The Lancaster
Eeaminer says this is a very wise
move, and it is to be hoped both the
police and public opinion will support
the efforts of the corporation to stop
a custom silly, unmannerly, annoying
to travellers, and above all dangerous.
A bowling, rice throwing mob in a
station is worse than callathumpian
band in the back woods. Good man
ners consist in showing a proper re-
spect for the feelings of others. Non
sensical and half idiotic rice throwing
violates this dictum worse than any
other social custom.
