Some Sharp Shots at Weak Spots OF
Mankind.
Everybody has some signs that never
fail.
a man never gets too old to enjoy a
love story.
Some people are proud because they
have some rich relations.
1t is astonishing how much some men
talk to impart just a little information
A fellow can't help having little
respect for a man who beats him play
ing cards.
A man for whom everybody should
feel sorry, is the man who can never
see q joke.
1t fatters a man to tell him he made
shrewd bargain, even if it was little
crooked.
A widower can't even look at an un'
married woman without the whole
town talking about it.
The man who runs upstairs two steps
at time is not necessarily the one who
has the most to do.
We have never been able to und2r'
stand why some people want to wear
spectacles and always look over the top
of them.
People talk about combinations OF
colors" in pictures, when they don't
know an oil painting from blotch OF

cumsTances, aid had just "'become the
proud possessor of q very handsome
overcoat. It was late in the winter when
he died, and the coat was packed away
with his other belongings. In the fall
the mother decided to present the coat
TO the son of a neighbor who had been
one of the lads favorite playmatcs. Ten
days after the first wearing of the coat
the boy was dead from diphtheria. In
stances of this sort might be related by
scores TO show the danger of putting
away garments that have been worn by
the victims of this disease. However
much one may dislike to do it, there is
no alternative other than to destroy all
garments that may carry contagion
and more than likely cause an outbreak
of the trouble long after all fears have
been allayed.
1t has been suggested that upon She
first appearance of diphtheria in COM
munity the children be allowed to in
dulge freely in pineapple. This fruit
is said to contain an acid that is fatal
to the germs of the disease, and fro
quent partalling of it may ward of
trouble or cure light attacks without
other treatment. Indeed, pineapple has
been employed with most beneficial re-
suits in cases where all ordinary RENE
dies had proved unavailing.
At any stage of the illness give the
patient all of the juice that can he taken
with a relish. IF fresh fruit cannot be
obtained, the best quality of canned
pineapple may be used. 1t is n9'
thought TO be quite as good as the raw
fresh pineapple, but answers the rur
pose very well, and has cured number

A Taller Explains How Clothes Must
BE Built TO BE In Style.
The tailor stood the man up on the
block and then stood off across The
loom TO study the coat from litt!C
distance. After two or three minute:
OF reflective observation he shook hi:
head and took look al it from another
direction. Then he came closer, pulled
ii down Il little here, pulled it upa LITTLE
there, and shook his head again.
What idiot made that coat?" he
asked, at length.
Don't you like it?" returned the mar
on the block, very naturally offended a.
the question.
The tailor shrugged his shoulders eX-
Iiessively.
ooh, if the man makes no preteuse O:

will pass.
But what's the matter with it?" de.
manded the man on the block.
"Everything," replied the tailor
"There is the collar, for instance"
Collar" roared the man on the block.
"Why, that lies around my neck as snug
ard even as anyone could wish"
NO doubt" answered the tailor
Then if you will turn to the glass yor
can see the absurdity of the back"
After a careful inspection the man Oh
the block announced that it looked tc
him rs smooth rs y hoard
""There isn't a wrinkle in it." he said.
"Very likely" responded the tailor
"And then" he added, there is Tie
cTowning absurdity of the body Of the
coat and the way it hangs when but
toned"
IT'S perfectly comfortable, not too
loose and doesn't wrinkle" protested
the man on the block.
THAT is apparent to anyone" al
mitted the tailor.
"Then what's the matter with ito"
"Why, principally Just the points that
have enumerated" said The tailor. "Tc
put it more briefly and in little palmer
language, I might say that from the
standpoint of the present fashions. the
fault lies in the fact that it fits. What
you need if you are going into society
Is coat that has been fitted to an open
umbrella and that won't touch you any
where except on the shoulders. If il
looks well on you, you may put it down
ut once as decidedly out of date."-Chi

we'll 10 sound a note Of warning 10 those
careful persons who are willing to take
the risk of death rather than destroy ar
ticles which have been used in the sick
room.
A few weeks ago, a woman living in
the suburbs of New York had occasion
to take from her store closet comfort
able that had been used upon the bed
when one Of her children had an attack
CT diphtheria last year. 1t was a mild
case, and when the child recovered the
mother seemed not to realize that there
was need of very thorough fumigation
and clearing out. She put the comfort
able out on the clothesline, and after
it had been out for a week she brought
it in and put it away, saying that she
thought it would be all right after a
weeks airing. When the cold weather
made the use of the comfortable neces-
sary, she put it upon the bed of one of
the children, and a week later there
was well-developed case of diphtheria
in the house.
Another case was traceable to the use
of piece of red flannel which had been
used about a diphtherial patient. The
fnanel had been thoroughly washed
and put away. The following season
one of the members of the household
found the flannel, and, having need for
some strips, tore it up and used por-
ton as wrapping. A most malignant
case of this dread disease, followed by
the death of the sufferer, was the re-
suit.
