I'VE Americans travelling abroad are
apt to be very proud of our reputation
for cleverness, said q tourist who went
bicycling in Europe last summer. And
no doubt we have reason to be. But

the conceit taken out Of me.

and had reached the close Of the first
day = descent toward Geneva. The road
had been 100 steep TO coast without the
aid OF "a brake aud as we were afraid to
use our brakes for fear our tires would
not last US through our trip we back
pedaled all the way.
LAS We were sitting after supper on
the veranda Of the lodge discussing tho
fatigue Of our unusual exercise and
dreading the morrow, which meant
more of the same sort, our attention was
suddenly called to cloud of dust de-
soending tho mountain side. Then we
saw cyclist, coasting as nice as you
please, towing a good sized sapling by
"A rope tied to. the rear Of his wheel,
which acted AZ an effective brake with
out injury to the tires. One Of the boys

1t Is not a generally understood fact
that the condition of the teeth has
much to do with the health, beauty and
usefulness Of the eyes That an liberated
tooth will often cause extreme infiam-
nation of the eyes Is true, and case is
reported Of almost total blindness caused
by the teeth crowding together. A half
grown boy, who had complained Of al
most incessant uneasiness in his jaws
aud had been visited with periodical at
tacks of the most violent toothache. re-
tired one night in his usual condition,
but upon awakening the next morning
it was discovered that he was blind.
The eyes presented most unnatural
appearance and the countenance was
strained and distressed. After o good
deal Of investigation it was decided TO
remove some Of his teeth and see IL this
would afford relief. Six teeth were ex-
tracted and the boy was given sedative
treatment, After few days the sight
became normal and there has been no re-
turn Of the difficulty. Children who ap-
pear to have too MANY teeth should DO
carefully looked afer, especially IL they
complain Of their eyes in any way
Sometimes the symptoms are only SEC
ondary. but an acute diagnostician will
speedily detect the exact state Of the
case. New York Ledger.

Mere Susanne," l said suddenly,
when is your boy coming baok5 How
long has he been away"
BY the movement she made knew
that she raised her head, for we were in
darkness.
Monsieur, she said, che may come
any day. Every night say to myself,
Perhaps he will come tomorrow, may
be before am up, or he will meet me
coming home in the evening""
why does he delay, Mere Susanne9"
Her fingers grew restless and pluoked
at her apron. II cannot tell, monsieur.
But it is not long since he went--only
little while ago"
when did he go, Mere Susanna, and
why? You have never told me- When
was it?'
at was during the war, monsieur |
do not know how long ago; have no
memory. but only little while since
Monsieur will know. He went to fight"
Then at last / began to understand
1t was 20 years since her boy had gone
She would not have known him now
He was tall lad, fair and handsome,
and blue eyed to her still, and she was
waiting for him to come back from
battlefield which the pillow had turned
up score Of times since that last battle
had been fought
The little room and the darkness
seemed to me to grow very sad. At
times came twitter from q sleepless
bird, and then the moonlight stole In
and found us Mere Susanna rose up
See, monsieur - she said, al will
show you his room" And she took me
into the other chamber 1t was very
bare and spotless, and the white moon
light was clarifying it-nay, was hal
lowing it; for it was shrine. There
was nothing in it except chair and a
chest of drawers and tho bed against
the wall. The moonlight was streaming
on to the pillow where should have been
lying the head that had slept since on
another bed Of honor
Mere Susanna stole up and kissed IL,
and then, kneeling, laid her own head
there. And stumbled out into tho lit.
tic garden and the soft moonshine and
shadow, not seeing where l went
Sometimes fancy that her boy came
home; that some early summer twilight
he met her returning from the fields
and came back with her through the
little gate and into the cottage, his arm
about her shoulders and she looking up
at his face with pride and peace in hers.
Was IL no, wonder? like to think
that it was, For ono morning when |
passed by the little cottage stood with
open door in the early sunlight And
the birds had stopped singing. st

UNUSUAL LEGAL DECISION.

Spectators.

But IL Was EmphAtIcsIiy Indorssd by the
Spectators.
II heard the late Judge John X.
Grace Of the court Of appeals Of Ken
lucky set aside the verdict of u fury
once under circumstances that to my
mind did him infinite credit, said Rep
resentative John S. Rhea Of that state
to "A Washington Post representative.
1T seems that poor woman, who
was on the verge Of starvation and who
was the sole support Of four little chill
dren. went into a neighbor's smoke
house aud purloined piece Of bacon.
The proof was positive, and the jury
reluctantly returned verdict Of guilty
When the finding Of the jury was read.
Judge Grace, who at that time presided
over the Fourteenth judicial district,
rising to his feet, said in the most EN-
phatic tones:
1.-The court orders that the verdict
in this case be set aside, and want to
declare here that in all cases where an
unfortunate woman is on trial for steal
ing food, taken to keep her offspring
from starving, it will require IS men
to convict her Of the crime in this court
The defendant is discharged from Gus
tody.
THE announcement was greeted
with applause from the spectators, and
the general sentiment was that Judge
Grace had acted noe. only o. befitted q
chivalrous man, but that his ruling
was right. Theft to keep innocent
babes from perishing Of hunger can
scarcely be called q crime"

DIR. HALE DOES NOT
Write Testimonials, But Does Good
 in Another Way.

My husband, Dr, Hale, does not write recommendations, but he always recommends to his patients the use of Postum Food Coffee, in place of com- mon coffee.
 We mix the Postum with just enough egg (white and yolk beaten togetheD to moisten it a little, then the Postum does not boil up around the edges of the coffee pot as it does when moist ened with water alone, and we think it tastes richer and seems clearer.
 This does not take the place of con- tinued boiling, for we have no way to get the rich taste out of Postum ex- cept by knowing that it has been all lowed to boil fifteen or twenty min- utes after the real boiling begins.
 Many make a mistake by counting the fifteen minutes from the time they put the pot on the stove, but this will not do. I have never had any liver trouble since I began the use of Pos tum, whereas before, I was constantly troubled with sluggish liver.
