Some very good stories are told Of
the impression made upon those who
attend for the first time the very high
church Episcopalian service, with its
elaborate ritual and its extraordinary
musical features. at the Church of st.
Mary the Virgin. The reply of very
prominent Catholic priest when asked
by the friend who had taken him there
how he liked the service, ''Well, really,
1 prefer the simple ritual of my own
church." is a current story at the clubs.
Even more amusing was the COM
ment of the elderly Scotchwoman
whose relatives said to her as they
were leaving after the service:
"Well, Aunt Janet, did you enjoy the
service?"
"a weel.' said Janet in response,

held captives, has furnished the state
department at Washington a copy of
the official announcement made as to
the release of these prisoners The
point of the notice is that the repatri-
alton of the prisoners is not to take
place at once, but will depend on the
readiness of the colonial governments
to receive them, as the circumstances
of the new colonies do not admit OF
the return of unlimited numbers >at
one time. Foreign prisoners of war
who do not claim to be burghers will
not be allowed to return to South At
RIGA. They may leave Ceylon at once
at their own expense. Others may be
handed over to their consuls if their
governments wish to make special ar
rangements for moving them; other
wise they must wait until the British
government finds it convenient to re-
patriate them.

A Fifeshire farmer gave his herd lad
die, Jamie, half wit, ticket to admit
him to a sacred recital in a neighbor-

and told the lad to be sure to enjoy

The farmer was greatly surprised to
find his servant in the kitchen long be-
fore the conclusion of the performance,
and upon asking him why he had re-
turned from the recital Jamie replied:

You can't blame a woman for doing
anything for clothes when they lead
so often to the subsequent privilege
of doing nothing for the rest of her
life. Many a man has proposed
merely to a new dress.
The three fates from which no man
escapes are his mothers hand, his
wife's thumb, and his daughters
little finger.
Men would be believed more by wo-
men if women believed less in other
women.
Man never loves but one-while he's

THE TELLTALE THUMB.
It's Marks and Lines and It's Signal
From the Brain.

Its Marks md Lines and Its Signal
From the Brain.
a tremendous amount of nonsense
has been written about thumb marks.
1t is claimed that the curious skin con-
fguration on the ball of the thumb is
never the same in any two people and
that 1t never changes. The first state
ment is correct, and the same thing can
be said Of the lines ON the palm and
the creaseS on the bottom of the feet
But the assertion that the thumb marks
never change throughout life is de-
cided exaggeration. The alteration may
come from a variety of causes-any-
thing, in fact, that will destroy the
outer layer of skin.
Another modifying cause is the tend
ency of the thumb to develop little
horizontal creases as one grows old.
This is especially true Of mechanics and
other working people who use tools,
and eventually the creases will break
up the lines to such an extent that it
is equivalent almost to a rearrange-
ment of the pattern. Specialists in
nerve diseases by an examination of
the thumb can tell if the patient is
affected or likely to be affected by
paralysis, as the thumb signals this
long before it is visible in any other
part of the body. If the danger symp-
toms are evidenced there, an operation
is performed on what is known as the
thumb CENTER of the brain, and the
disorder is often removed.
No matter how carefully the indiyid-
ual may attempt to conceal incipient in
sanity, the thumb will reveal it infal-
libby. 1t is the one sure test. If the
patient in his daily work permits the
thumb to stand at n right angle to the
other fingers or to fall listless into the
palm, taking no part in his writing. his
handling of things, his multiform du-
ties, but standing isolated and sulky, it
is an unanswerable confession of men,

So One CENT Letter Postage

The bill providing for the adoption
of one cent postage instead of two,
on all first class mail matter, will not
become a law, because the loss of
revenue to the government would be
too great. 1t is good policy to guard
against losses of any kind, but espe-
cially against the loss of your health.
For this purpose Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters> should be taken, because it
will strengthen the stomach. perfect
the digestion and keep the bowels
open, thus protecting you from all
sickness. If, however, you have lost
your health and suffer from head
ache, Indigestion, dyspepsia, eonsti-
patton or biliousness, you need the
Bitters at once, because it is spe-
cific remedy for these ailments, and
