From the Philadelphia Record.
"Uncross your legs, said doctor.
ooh, no p said his son. "What'
the use of being so polite all the time p
my boy, the father answered, 1T
is not on account of mere rule of eti
quette that | tell you to uncross your legs;
but it is because leg crossing is an injurious
thing-a thing baleful to the health
as kissing or as microbes.
"When you cross your legs you fit the
knee cap of the under limb into the cavity
under the knee of the upper one In the cav
ity that you thus compare there are the two
important exterior and interior popliteal
nerves, and a number of glands and blood
vessels. Compression does not act well on
these organs 1t benumbs them and
weakens and emaciates them. You feel
the injury in numbness of the whole leg
the leg goes to sleep.
"Keep on with the habit, and your legs
weaken. They become thin. They lose

their legs who have strong and supple and

Origin of "Hoosier. !"

An Indiana man at the Treasury De-
partment, Washington, d. c., who was
being taunted about the name of his State,
"Hoosier,' gave this explanation of it
"When the young men on the Indiana
side of the Ohio river went to Louisville
the Kentucky men boasted over them,
calling them new purchase greenies, and
claiming themselves to be superior race,
half horse, half alligator and tipped off
with swapping turtle. These taunts pro-
duced fights in the market house and streets
of Louisville. On one occasion stout
bully from Indiana was victor in fist fight,
and, having heard Colonel Lehmanowsky
lecture on The Wars of Europe, who al
ways gave martial prowess to the German
hussars in fight with the Russian Cos
sacks, pronouncing hussars hoosiers, the

Lawyer OuJwitted.
From the Scottish American.

Not a few stories are told to show
how glib tongued lawyers are sometimes
outwitted by dull unlikely witnesses. The
following is case in point
In dispute over a right of way the
agent for the landlord who objected to the
right was cross-examining venerable
laborer, who had testified that to his own
personal knowledge there had been right
of way over the disputed land since he was
boy of 5.
"And how old are you now p asked
the lawyer.
Eighty five. y
s'But surely you can remember things
which occurred when you were boy of 3,
eighty years o?'' said the lawyer, III al
fected incredulity.
q Deed an | can, sir. l can mind a
year afore that, when your father--auid
Skinhint, as we used to call him
"That will do. You may go, said
the lawyer, reddening furiously as litter
ran round the court.
-'sgot an awful wallopin' frae Jean
Macintosh"
''That'll dor' roared the lawyer, wrath
fully.
-"for cheatin' her 2 ear old lassle-"
'sDo you hear? Go away, sayF'

umphantly as he slowly left the witness

Beauty Sleep.

If womankind half realized the beauty
benefits of plenty of restful, refreshing
sleep, all femininity would be crawling into
bed at sunset
Do you not often wonder why the great
sisterhood that is praying and working and
fretting and longing for physical loveliness
does not understand that more real help
comes from rational, hygienic living than
can possibly be extracted from all the COS
metic jars that ever beckoned toward and
from weak feminine hearts?
Shops are full of them
Full of boxes round and boxes square,
painted gaudily or daintily, as the case may
be, with names which all hold out the same
inducement "Use me and get beautiful
in night
Some of these are to be used with good
effect, of course, Every woman must have
little dainty things on her dressing table to
add to her fresh, sweet smelling womanli-
ness, rice powders and perfumes and sim
pie creams, when one is just in from the
wind or dust of a bad day. All these are
really helps; but the army of concoetions
which promise new skin or straight
nose are not to be compared in power with
the great, all powerful beautifer which
nature leaves about us so freely.
Beauty sleep.
Yes, we have heard of it since the long
ago days when our blessed mothers sang it
in our ears, even then fearing we would
not heed until too late We doubted the
fact that it would bring bright eyes and
rounded cheeks and really make us grown
up ladies, but now many of us wish we
had had more of it.
The woman who gets to bed late, who
eats all sorts of dream provoking horrors,
such as deviled crabs and Holsters and Welsh
rarebits, invariably pays her debt against
nature by wearing leathery sallow com
plexion for the rest of her days She may
make it very much better, though, by be-
ginning, however late, to sleep certain
number of hours out of each twenty y-four
There is nothing that tells SO quickly on
woman S appearance as late hours and i'm
proper food
Health is the basis of all beautifying of
all rational, sensible beautifying, and to be
healthy means that one must keep the body
well nourished, that one must have GER
tain amount of exercise and certain amount
of rest, and that all the wonderful mechan-
ism of the body must be kept in perfect
condition.
There is the most inspiring stimulant to
be found in good nights sleep. To
awaken refreshed, full of high spirits and
with clear head is to be equipped for all
the worries and troubles of the day.
