GERMAN ARMY OFFICERS.
The Affect Difference shown Them
hx CiYtliana La Amaxing

The Affect Difference Shown Them
by Civilians Is Amazing.
The respect and Difference shown to
the German army officer on duty and
or duty by his countrymen are won
derful to see, according to London
writer. Civilians, even compatriots
Af distinction, on entering the dining
room bow to him with formal humility.
He acknowledges the obeisances only
with rigid glare of naughty indiffer-
ence, though he is politely conscious Of
the coming and going Of ladies. The
German civilian does not appear to be
surprised at or to resent being con-
temptuously ignored by him, but rec
ognizes him and looks up to him as a
superior member Of a superior race
and continues to make his obeisances,
however Ioftily they are ignored.
"But, while the officer is unable to
see the civilian at whom he is looking
ing the entrance and acknowledging
the salute of another Of his own race.
He rises from his seat and stands stiff
and erect while the newcomer adj
vances and exchanges formal bows
and greetings, and as he RECEIVERS the
erect position from the bow he brings
his heels together with a sharp parade
click and waits until his superior has
taken q seat before he resumes his
own"
There were tremendous ceremonies
IN eating and drinking, too, especially
In drinking. "Each table group lifted
their glasses invariably together, as If
at the word of command, taking their
time apparently from the senior pres

gether and raised them together and
simultaneously drunk. they would
simultaneously finish and then, hold
ing their glasses before them, would
with great ceremony bow to one
another before replacing them on
the table 1t did not matter whether
they were drinking beer or claret or
the German champagne, which seems
to be the especially smart thing to
take, there was the same ceremony.
When a senior officer went out of the
room, all the juniors present rose to
stiff attention and bowed as he passed.
When junior rose, he made the round
of the table on his way to the door and
bowed separately, with spur jingling
heel click every time to every other
officer"

he FEARED he HAD LOST

When WI Ting Fang, the famous Chin
csc Minister to Washington, irritable and
somewhat forgetful from severe cold,
missed one day from the front of his cap the
immense diamond he always wears there,
he was dreadfully frightened. A friend
pointed out that the statesman had mad
vertently donned his turban wrong side
before, and that the diamond was safe In
the rear. Had WI Ting Fang been wear
ing Benson's Porous Plaster on his chest
or back to cure his cold, he never would
have doubted its location. He would have
felt it doing its work, warming and max
ing flexible the torpid muscles, extracting
the pain and soreness, promoting the free
circulation of the blood, stimulating the
skin and lungs to proper action, and so
dissolcing and banishing the malady. Thus

A SUFFERING WIFR
Saved by the Suggestion Of a
Thoughtful Husband.

A man can rarely enter into woman's
sufferings when they are caused by dis
eases peculiarly feminine. Even when
the character of the suffering is graph
ically described the man cannot appre-
ciate the force of terms for which he has
no equivalent in his experience. All
he can do is to sympathize and suggest.
But when woman hears the story OF
a woman's suffering every word has ita
Just weight with her. Even more, she

One Of the rudest acts in the eyes Of
native of the Philippine Islands is to
step over person asleep on the floor.
Sleeping is with them very solemn
matter. They are strongly averse to
waking any one, the idea being that
during sleep the soul is absent from
the body and may not have time to re-
turn II slumber is suddenly broken.
II you call upon native and are told
he is asleep, you may as well depart.
To get servant to rouse you, you
must give him the strictest of orders.
Then at the time appointed he will
stand by your side and call: "Senor!

loudly than before. until you are half
awake. Then he will return to the low
note and again raise his voice gradual
