the Alland Charity Institution for Con-
sumptives. Mr.. Clemens has in re-

1T a rule to give reading once year

among those present were the most
prominent members of the Viennese

the entire American colony.
Mark TwaIn's numbers on the pro-
gramme were, of course, the most IN

from his sketch-book, prefaced by
some amusing remarks in German,

A THIN DISGUISE.

The cutie fish has a tricky habit of
covering his tracks by exuding an inky
fluid which discolors the water and keeps
him out of view. There's a good deal of
the cutie fish about some advertise
ments, notably those purporting to offer
medical advice by a woman to women.
An examination of the advertisement
will show that no offer of a doctors adj
vice is really made. And all the clamor
about writing to a woman " is merely
raised to divert attention from the fact
that doctors advice is not really offered
and cannot be given. The real question
is not of writing to 5VonIaN or man
but of writing to a doctor,
For the advice of an unqualified
woman Is just as dangerous as the
advice of an unqualified man.
Every day adds to the number of wom-
en- who take advantage of DR.. Pierce's
genuine offer of consultation by letter
free of cost. As chief consulting physi-
clan of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y, DR.. K. v.
Pierce has, in a practice of over thirty
years, treated more than half-a-million
women for female troubles with the re-
markable record of ninety eight per
cent. of cures. Sick women are invited
to consult DR.. Pierce by letter, without
fear and without fee. Every letter is
held as strictly private and sacredly con-
fdential, and all answers are mailed
sealed in plain envelopes without print
ing of any kind upon them.

A Memphis family, which employs

had a gas range put in the kitchen.
When the range was put in place the
workman who put it there lighted the
Jets inside the oven. and then closed

the gas and then, relighting the jets,
explained to the old negress how the
range was used. The Jets cannot be
seen when the doors of the oven are

singing sehoo, OF Thrushes.

A writer in Forest and Stream
tells of the methods Papa Thrush
adopts in teaching his little ones to
sing. Find" he says, "a family of
wood thrushes and carefully note what
takes place. The old male thrush will
sing the sweet song in loud, clear,
flute like notes, and then stop to listen
while the young birds try to initiate
the song Some will utter one note,
some two. Some will utter hoarse
note. others a sharp note. After
awhile they seem to forget their lesson
and drop out one by one. When all
are silent the old thrush tunes up
again, ard the young thrushes repeat
their efforts, and so it goes on Tor
hours. The young birds do not acquire
the full song the first year; so the les
sons are repeated the following spring.
| take many visitors into the woods TO
enjoy the first thrushes singing
school, and all are convinced that the
song of the wood thrush is a matter OF
education, pure and simple"

The amount earned per week. however
