BOSTON, Aug. 26.-Sir Gilbert Thena. as Carter, governor of the Bahamas, and Miss Gertrude Goldman Barker wore married at the Ckurch of the Ad- vent. This international wedding is the outcome of a romance that began last winter when the bride, with her parents, passed the season at Nassau: Her father was in poor health, and Sir Gilbert, who was also at Nassau, was specially devoted to him and to the family.

But the public has little use for one who has so little of the humane nature about him and 1t was too bad an officer was not on hand to reprimand the fellow.

is the way TO do it:
Selec; part of the river bank where
the grounds run back level and, stand
ing at the waters edge. fix your eyes
on the opposite bank. Now, move your
hat down over your brow until the
edge of the brim is exactly on n line

This will give you Il visual angle that
may be used ON any level surface, and
If, as has been suggested, the ground

may LAY OFF, corresponding distance

your head perfectly steady, after get
ting the angle with your hat brim, sup
porting your chin with your hand, If
necessary, and turn slowly around until
your back is toward the river. Now,
take careful note of where your hat
brim cuts the level surface of the

Nutritiou. value of oysters.

The popular belief that the oyster is q
most nutritious article Of diet does not
rest upon any scientific basis. The oys-
ter as a food could not satisfy the de-
mands of the human body. While the
oyster, when not stewed, is very pala-
table, wholesome and easily assimilat-
ed by weak, impaired stomachs, it can
not be contended for moment that 1t
contains such elements and nutrition as
may be found in beans, rice or potatoes.
There is very little, if any, fatmaking
or muscle building material in the oys-
ter. Its composition is largely nitrog-
enous. and, being rich in phosphates,
it is generally regarded as an excellent
food for the brain, but a man reduced
to an exclusive diet Of oysters would
soon find himself deficient in adipose
tissue and in those elements that go to
make up physical force and vitality in
the human body.

Care In Choosing Glnsses.

A dealer in optical instruments de-
clared that 1t gave him real pain to
note the careless manner in which half
the persons in New York wear glasses.
at is wonder to me-" he said, that
they don't bring on blindness. In the
first place, the frames should always
be fitted to individual faces instead of
being picked up indiscriminately with
out regard for facial peculiarities. The
size of the lenses is another important
consideration. Most Of the glasses l
see on the street are too small. They
should be as large rs the face Of the
wcarer will permit, for lens of good
size not only affords better protection
to the eye, but is more becoming than
a smaller one. Another tribulation of
the weak eyed is due to the reflection
from the edges of unframed glasses.
The eyelashes should be attended to in
order to get the best results from q
pair of spectacles. Many lashes are
Worn so long that they brush against
the glass. This is decidedly Injurious

Punctuation.


In the earliest Latin inscriptions and
manuscripts no system Of punctuation
is followed. The full point y was
gradually introduced, being placed on
the level, middle or top of the letters.
In the minuscule manuscripts of the
eighth, ninth and following centuries
the period, on the line or high, was
first used; then the comma and semi
colon and the inverted semicolon,
whose power was rather stronger than
that of the comma. Some say that the
Caroline minuscules of the ninth cen
fury exhibit the note of interrogation,
for which the inverted semicolon,
which was gradually dropped, may
have furnished the mark. The Greeks
use the semicolon as an Interrogation
point. In English the colon is said to
have been introduced about 14S5, the
comma about 1901 and the semicolon
about 1870. In Sir Philip Sidney's "Ar.
cadia" $3.50 all the punctuation points
appear, including the note of interro.
cation, asterisk and parenthescs.

"My six-year-old girl is an awful
chatterbox," said a broker, "and the
worst of it is that when we have guests
at the house she is continually making
breaks of the worst sort-breaks that
tend to rattle the dry bones of the fam
lily skeleton in the closet. Recently
when we had company at dinner she
allowed her tongue to run away with
her, as usual, the result Of which was
that she very much embarrassed both
her father and mother, although the
guests, l am free to say, seemed de-
lighted. had very serious talk with
her and impressed upon her, or tried to,
that she nAlst not tell any family Sc
cret. The next time we had company
she was permitted to come to the table
only by promising that she wouldn't ut
ter word. She behaved beautifully
and had nothing to say until the des-
sert was about to be taken away. Then
her lips began to culver, and finally she
burst into tears. Why, what's the mat
ter, darlingY her mother asked. IL
