A Warning to Parents.

A case which occurred in Cheshire,
England, in 1897 is probably without
parallel in the history of tragic coin
cidences. A lawyer well known in
Liverpool. whose name we will say is
Smith. was playing with his children
one evening when his youngest boy,
little fellow of five, asked to be lifted
up. The father at once complied by
placing a hand on each side of the
boys head and raising him foot or
so from the floor. When he placed
him on his feet again the boy fell to
the ground apparently lifeless. Every
effort was made to restore him to con-
sciousness, but without effect. and the
doctor was sent for.
After examination the medical man
asserted that the child was undoubted-
ly dead, and asked the lawyer what
had occurred Calling another of his

MEANINGLESS GRIMACES.


'"rhere is one thing which never fails
to interest me, but at all times con-
tinues to puzzle me-" remarked a we'll
known physician to writer for the
Washington Post, land that is, why
women who are frequently beautiful
will deliberately, and for no reason,
persist In marring the contour Of their
counenances by facial distortion until
1t assumes outlines of ugliness.
"The practice Of working the mouth
into all sorts Of meaningless grimaces,
which are particularly noticeable dur
ing the pauses of conversation or when
occupied with deep thought IL ex-
planned by many as Just habit they
have formed and this seems to awak-
en- satisfaction concerning the matter
and serves as sufficient reason to con-
tinue the practice. 1t is here We get a
glimpse of the proverbial Inconsistency
