MODERN FABLES BY GEORGE AIDE.
THE MODERN FABLE OF WHAT BE-
FELL THE DESIGNING CHAUNCEY WHO
s WALKED RIGHT UP AND SPOKE TO HER.


of times before and it had been her Luck
not TO come back Hungry. Tessie had a
sort of a Hunch that History would repeat
itself.
So Tessie planted a Camp Stool right in
the Main Promenade where those who
wished to go Forward or Aft would be com
PEELED to walk over her. After which she
gazed pensively at the broad expanse of
Drink and waited for something to happen.
Now among those on Board was a Pale
Face with more or less Neck who was
prominently connected with the Bundle De-
partment of a hrst-class Clothing Store.
His name was Chauncey and he loved the
Society of Ladies'. At the same time he
knew his Place. Chauncey spotted Therese
and saw that she was alone and signing for
Company but he did not care to be too
Brash at the first Crack for fear that she
would give a Scream and jump Overheard.
Accordingly he nerved himself and APP
preached her, Hat in Hand, and began to
beg her Pardon.
He said he knew 1t was hardly Proper TO
brace a Young Lady without the Formally
of an Introduction but he hoped she would
overlook his Boldness. He made it so
Strong that Tessie had to play the Bank
ers Daughter in order to hold up her End.
She said ii did seem very strange TO be
sitting right there talking to a Party she
had never Met and if her People ever sus-
pected that she done anything of that Kind,
they would be Awful Sore.
Chauncey pulled out his Cuffs and began
to deal Polite Conversation of the kind that
is supposed to calm the Fears Of a Trem-
bling Young Thing. He told her his Real
Name and showed his Link Buttons and
begged her not to regard him as a Mere
Flirt.
At the end of a half hour she was chew
ing the End of her Fan and answering
Yes and No II looked to Tessie as

there has beer an absolute increase in the
quantity OF drink consumed, but not in
proportion TO the growth Of the population.
TIE fact is that the war has obliged a
good many people 10 limit their outlay.
The loss OF friends and relatives who have
served in the field. the increased duty on
spirits, the advance on the income tax and
some change in the volume OF business-an
these have had their influence in lessening
the amount OF money which people had
available for stimulants.f Fashion, IL ap-
pears. rules in drinking as well as individ-
ual taste. When Queen Victoria's sherry
was put on the market everybody drank
sherry. First II was the Queens sherry
that was asked for, and then sherry gener-
ally. SO that this wine seems in fair way
TO again become popular.

point in science since the functions of the
organ or mind began 10 be investigated
with accuracy The general opinion localizes
what we term mind" in the preferential
lobes Of the brain, but by another school
OF thinkers the hinder lobes nave been
credited with performing our highest
cerebral duties. The balance of evidence is
decidedly in favor of the former view. and
recent researches and observations by DR..
Phelps. an American investigator, would
appear TO assist in strengthening the opin-
ion that the most important portion of the
brain is its anterior region. In the course
of the Investigations in question some 25
cases OF brain injury and disease were eX-
amined. In all save two ii was noted that
interference of extensive nature with the
prefrontal region resulted in serious dis
turbance of the mental faculties. Less
severe injury PRODUCED less marked effects.
These facts parallel the researches of other
investigators, and they are further sub
Stimulated by what is observed in cases OF
idiocy connected with a want Of develop
ment of the frontal lobes OF the brain.

Once there was a Gum-Chewer named
Tessie who ironed UP her White Dress
and bought seven yards of Ribbon and
went on a Picnic given by the Ladies Aux
iliary of the Horse-Shoers' Union.
Tess was more than nine and could take
care of herself at any point along the Line.
The Girls who worked at the same Plant
often said that Tessie was a regular Case
and full of the old Harry, but just the same
she was Awful Nice.
She had a ~changeable Figure and a Com
plexion that showed up best at a Dance.
Although somewhat shy on Happy
Clothes she managed to leave a small Rip

tons? There are a good many indications
that the chancellor OF the exchequer was
quite right when he said that the people of
this country had nearly gone 10 the verge
OF their possible expenditures on stimu-
lants. 1t is undoubtedly true that there
has been a general depression throughout
the wine and spirit trade. The failures re-
corded last year are more numerous than
for any previous year for a good while.
Many establishments are turning over much
less than they did three years ago True,
