saved a beautiful young girl from
drowning. Her grateful father seized
the rescuer of his daughter by the
hand and in a voice tremulous with
emotion said:
Noble youth, to you l am indebted
for everything that makes life dear to
me. Which reward will you take
100000 or the hand of my daughterP'
I'm take the daughter" replied the
heroic rescuer, thinking thereby to get
both the girl and tie money.
You have well chosen" replied the
grateful father. Il could not have
given you the 100000 just yet in any
case, as | have not yet saved that
amount. being only a poor editor but

Groom of No Imnortance.

If there is ever a time in a wOman's
life when she is the most important
person in her own immediate circle, it
is when she is bride. Apropos of this
is a story of a new society editress
who had just returned from her first
assignment, which was the writing up
of a wedding:
did you get all the facts?" asked
the city editor.
"An that are of any importance" I"
replied the young woman. II have a
description of the bridal gown and the
trousseau and the flowers and the wed
ding presents, and the objective point
Of the tour, and the names of the
bridesmaids and the officiating clergy
man and the reception days.
"Who is the bridegroom? inter-
rupted the city editor. His name has
been printed four different ways in the
preliminary announcements"
'The grOOm?" faltered the young
woman. ''Why-why-I forgot to ask
about him, and l guess nobody else
thought of him, except maybe the
bride"

HOW A MAN BROWNS
the Reason He Sometimes Comes
Three Times to the Surface.

The Reason He Sometimes Comes
Three Times to the Surface.
Few popular fallacies are of such
wide extent as the belief that a person
must rise to the surface three times.
no more and no less, before he can DOS
Sibly drown.
There is little ground for this SUD-
position, although it has been almost
universally believed In for generations.
The truth is that a drowning person
may sink the first time never to rise
again, or he may, as he indeed does in
the majority of cases, rise three times
before he sinks forever.
1t all depends upon the quantity of
water that he swallows when he sinks
and the size of his lungs. The human
body In life naturally floats while the
lungs are inflated. AS long as one
Keeps his head above the surface of
the water he can float, face UP, with
out having to move hand or foot.
But as soon as a person sinks he
gulps and imbibes a quantity of water.
If after he has swallowed water he
has any air in his lungs, he will un-
dOubtedly rise again and will continue
to sink and rise alternately until all
the air Is expelled from his lungs, when
he will Crown.
In most cases the frightened victim
of an accident swallows enough water
when he first sinks to leave him in
very exhausted condition; but, as there
is still air left in his lungs, he soon
finds himself on the surface again.
Each time he sinks, however, the sup
ply of air in his lungs grows less until
ultimately there is no longer sufficient
to support him.

Where Every One Smokes.

Smoking is universal in Polynesia,
China, Japan and Siam. In Burma the
mother takes the cheroot from her
mouth and puts it to the lips of her
nursing babe, while the child purses
its tiny lips and puffs away with ev-
cry indication of pleasure. Kaffirs ha-
bitually smoke cigars with the lighted
ends in their mouths and their tongues
adrOitly tucked out of harms way
Even the pygmies of central Africa are
inveterate smokers. The sun never
sets on the smoking world. for before
the white man of the occident puts
down his pipe at night the yellow man
Of the orient has lit his matutinal
cheroot.
