HIS AFTER DINNER Smoke.

With his strange taste and love for the
leaf that grows in Virginia, has Knocked
out all the traditional tales that fond
mothers follow in the rearing of their
offspring, When little Paul cries no
sweets are offered the little man as q
bride to withhold the pearly drops, but
a cigar is put in his chubby little hands
and soon the weed finds it's place in the
youthful mouth, and Paul puffs away
with all the evident JOY OF a veteran.
The first thing in the morning on
awakening Paul cries for his cigar, and
his cheroot brings him comfort Just be-
fore he drops of to sleep. In between
times he takes n Whit at his pipe,
though the little man declares he pre-
fers the cigar, and only smokes his pipe
when papa does"
PauFs pernicous habit does not seem
In any way to have injured his health.
He is unusually large and robust for a
little fellow of his age. active and in
telligent. In other ways he Is much
like other children with the only excep-
tion that he is not fond OF sweets of any
kind.
He talks fiuently, abbreviating many
of his words in helpfrl baby fashion,
and transposes sentences TO meet his
demands His cigar is tenderly re
ferred to as n ''gar," and his corncob Il

JAPAN OF TO-DAY.

The better class of Japanese do not
live in tbs treaty ports of Japan, which
are frequented by the casual traveller.
Life in these towns is SO different from
the real life of japan that il is impos-
sible to get an idea of the country from
them.

he was charged small price for his
food, just enough to cover the cost. lie

The second morning after, when
Banquo sat down to breakfast, the
waitress greeted him with a smile.
Haven't you got good thing for me

"You mean"

That morning, in looking over the
paper, Banquo's eyes had caught the
name OF a horse called "Helen's Pet"
He Ind remembered it because he was
sweet on n girl named Helen, and
rather envied even horse that was her
pet. He had never heard of "Helen's
