AGU1NALDo AND MAcARooNs
PigEishness of Youthful Nnmesak,
of the Famous Fill
DinO

ut was in London" said the girl,
tossing down the little book, writes
Caroline Lockhart in New Lippin-
colt, "that l made my last soulful en-
try. AT the table next to us at a
London restaurant sat female mis-
sionary from Manila, bringing home
with her boy Filipino, evidently as
an awful example of the table man
ners of that country. The mission
airy was short-haired lady, who
wore, among other remarkable
things, a sailor hat and big spec
tacles. Her cloth CATERS persistently
toed in; but she beamed with pride
as she gazed upon her convert. As
for the convert, he looked like a
miniature edition of Aguinaldo, and
he ate like pet coon. That night
we had macaroons. Now, little Agui-
naldo reasoned that he wasted valu-
able time chewing his food, so he
bolted the macaroons as he had sue
cessfully gobbled the fore part of his
dinner. Whether he did not get the
right twist, or whether the maca-
rooms were not boys size shall
never know. only know that he
suddenly stopped, gasped distressing
ly and rapidly grew black in the face.
The missionary lady leaped to her
feet and pounded the back of her re-
deemed heather till she herself be-
came hatless and bereft of her spec
tacles. The head waiter pranced over
and banged the Filipino's hunched
shoulders till it sounded like q drum
corps. But his beady eyes only
bulged the more. Then they carried
the boy and his macaroon out into
the hall, where the head waiter
swung him by his heels until yell
popped from him that treasured us.
But the missionary lady never for
gave me for the grin she saw on my
face when it looked as if little Agui-
naldo's sweet young life was about
to be cut short by a macaroon."

1t is wise husband who gives his
wife only new bills fresh from the

always kept in fresh bills, and perhaps
no one has surmised that there was
method in this. 1t is woman, says
the New York Times, who has given
the man away at last. 81 spend twice
as much money when have old bills
as when have new" she says. 81

and take the first opportunity to get
rid of them. When have new money
it is SO crisp and clean that it is a
pleasure in itself, and I think twice
before I buy anything which will take
it away from me.'

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance or swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
of it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often In small way, as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows !:
A small pimple came on my jaw about An inch

Poison in ruber..

Potatoes contain the alkaloid solan-
in, although this fact is not generally
recognized. New potatoes contain
comparatively little of this poison,
unless they grow above the surface
of the ground and have green skin,
when they are generally known to be
poisonous. It is not, however, known
generally that old potatoes contain
much of this poisonous principle, and
that many cases of serious poisoning
have occurred in late summer when
old potatoes were used.

Carelessness is said to have been at
the bottom of most of the fire disas-
tiers of the year, and was either direct
ly or indirectly the cause Of the con-
fagrations. Cigarettes, cigar stumps
and matches played an important part
in the drama CT destruction. So again
the lesson is impressively reaffirmed
that too much Importance cannot be
attached to apparently harmless and
insignificant things.

What many correspondents do not
seem to know is that while letters
weighing from half an ounce to one
ounce are sent at the single rate of
two cents within the United States,
such letters are double-rated if going
to foreign countries, and if underpaid
that double rate is doubled. For this
reason if the American correspondent
puts five-cent stamp on such letter,
ten cents additional is collected from
the receiver. This penalty postage
amounts annually to millions, and
every cent of it is retained by the for
eign governments.

he refused to work she shot at him
