the public of the faithful portrayal OF the

ADELE RITCHIE.

Miss Adele Richie has a great love
for French art, and visits Paris for sew
eral months every year saw an Easter
paper. There she studies the stage, anil
also the dressmaEcrs and milliners. Last
was a pleasant passenger list on the
steamer, and nearly every evening some
thing entertaining took place in the main
saloon. Singing was, of course, the chief
feature of the programme.
At Havre a fellow passenger whom
Miss Richie had seen only once or twice
on the voyage, approached her and said.
"T want TO hank you for the great
pleasure you have given me during the
trip"
Surprising that his remark was a polite
commonplace. she answered: 81 am much
obliged to you. and glad that you enjoy

FORTUNE FOR POSTAGE STAMP.

It is of interest to stamp collectors to
know that the most Valuable stamp in
the world is one lately discovered-a one
penny postoffice. Mauritius, for which
recently G1,Vo was palu in London, says
the New Yorok Herald. w. II Beckett
bought it from a stamp dealer who plac-
ed a value of CT 500 on it at first.
1t will be of further interest to know
what prices ave been paid for stamps OF
this class, which are very rare and are
at long intervals on the market. A Mr..
Tapling, Who's collection is now owned
by the British museum, paid 30 for a
lone penny postoffice' in 1882. In 1890
600 was asked and obtained for a Two
nennv stan. ;, of the same class at the
London exposition. In 1898 Stanley Glib
bons paid for a pair of unusual e
and two penny stamps s6so. In lss!
Jules Bernichon paid 1890 francs for a
pair of these stamps in Paris.

WHY MOUTHS ARE DEFORMED.

Physicians ~hereabouts and throughout
the country generally have been called
upon recently to treat a large number OF
cases of spitheleoma of the lips, says the
Chicago Chronicle. This ~disagreeable
complaint is charged almost entirely to
the pipe-smoking habit. Some surgeons
are of the oponion that the imitation Of
amber used in the manufacture of mouth
pieces for cheap pipes has much to do
with the alarming Increase in the dis
ease, While all of them agree that the
majority of the cases are directly trace
able to the short clay pipes smoked by
thousands of laborer rs.
The hospital recor DIS show that over so
per cent of all the cases treated We're
laboring men over 40 years of age. The
heat brought close to the lips by the
short-stemmed clay pipes causes a small
blister to form, and the smoker prompt
ly picks it and keeps on smoking. Then
a hard, knotty wart forms where the
blister first appeared, and soon the whole
mouth is involved Inc sometimes the
ongue sWells to al enormous size.
The warty growths multiply until the
chin is entirely GOV cred and the mouth
protrudes far beyc nd the nose. The
surgeons cut away the entire growth and
fashion an entirely new mouth out OF
laps drawn from tn cheeks and so much

of celluloid and similar preparations, with
