GOING IN TO DINNER,
ao,y the Methods Differ In France.
ENGLAND md America.

HOW the Methods Differ In France,
England and America.
In France they walk Into the dining
room abreast, the lady and her lord,
like two clums, equal one to the other.
In England John Bull goes first, she
following meek and demure. In Ameri-
ca Mrs. Jonathan enters triumphantly,
leading the way, while her dear old
spouse follows.
In France men and women walk with
equal assurance When they meet on
the street the men pay their respect to
the women and the latter show their
Difference to the men by the way in
which they salute one another. Your
natural conclusion is that such men
and women 80 through life on the same
equal footing.
On the contrary, John Bull has the
air Of a lord Of creation. He leads the
way a little haughtily perhaps and not
overpleasant looking. He Is duly sen
sible Of the fact that he Is a master
the master. he is Of course polite and
deferent1al to women, but 1t Is with q
slightly patronizing air, condescen-
sion Of his lofty 1ordsh1p. He feels his
supposed superiority, and he cannot
help showing 1t. Among the middle and
lower class people the man is master
and enters bis house before his wife,
mother or daughter.
In the United States the woman
walks like duchess. She is mistress
Of all she surveys She stands erect and
oueenly, and her eyes are frank. For
her, man exists. He pays her court
She is indeed q queen. - American
Queen.

Flowers That Harm the Sick.

Botanists and others who have made
a life study Of flowers have recently
discovered that the perfume Of bios
SONS is often increased by growing
them under colored glass. They state
also that some plants are fragrant only
at night and others only in the hot
sunshine, that the season affects the
odors and that some perfumes power
fully affect the human organization,
sometimes giving rise to serious nerV-
Gus troubles. Flowers Of delicate per-
fume quiet the nerves Of invalids, it is
asserted. bit the violet, lily Of the val
ley and carnations are really harmful
to the sick.

he Learned a Great Truth.

It is said of John Wesley that he
once said to Mrs. Wesley: why do
you tell that child the same thing over
and over again?" ';John Wesley, be-
caususe once telling is not enough" !"
It is for this same reason that you are
told again and again that Chamber
lain's Cough remedy cures cold and
grip, that it counteracts any tendency
of these diseases to result in pneumonia
and that it is pleasant and safe to take.

While the common house spider IS
harmless and renders a positive serv-

other insects, it is generally regarded
with aversion If not with fright. The
ordinary spider does not deserve its

rial it has been called crafty and muir
derous, Turing the poor fly to its death
end then greedily devourfng it, but
really it only Furnishes trespassers.

GERMAN SYRUP.

We want TO impress on our read
ers that Boschee's German Syrup
is positively the only preparation
on the market to-day that does re-
lieve and cure consumption. 1t
contains the specific, such as pure
tar, extracts of gums, etc., which
have been so highly endorsed for
the cure of coughs, colds and con.
sumption by the great medical con-
crosses. The consumptive, whether
his disease is in the throat or lungs,
must have rest at night, and be
free from the spasm of dry and
racking cough in the morning. The
diseased parts want rest, healing

nent relief. Small bottles, 20 cents ;

One man sold from one single acre,
100 barrels of radishes for $4,000,
gross; another patch of A acres
radishes yielded 81, 463.00, net. In
the spring of 1902, another truck
gardener sold 300 barrels of
potatoes in Pittsburgh from acres
of ground for ST., 548, and after pay
ing all expenses, cleared $4,000,
or $29722 per acre. Within two
weeks after selling his potatoes,
corn was up and watermelon vines
were running on the same land.
He harvested his corn, sold his
melons, and afterwards cut two
crops of hay off of the same land,
and on January 20, 1908, was plant
ing it again in potatoes. Straw

a Real Commitment,

The bishop of Manchester, whose
fighting speeches in the house of lords
on the education bill were so much
commented on, was in his youth a
skillful boxer. He tells tale of how,
when he was young, he had a. cousin
at Harrow, sixth form boy, who
prided himself much on his boxing.
The bishop was persuaded by the lad
to put on gloves and test his skill.
The result of the contest was that the
Harrovian was soon vanquished, when
he remarked admiringly: 1T 10 a
pity you are parson; you would have
done for the ring"

Modern Dancing.

Rev. Reginald Campbell, Of the Lon

to America ON the Campania, said q
number of amusing things. One Of
them concerned dancing. A young
girl asked DR.. Campbell if he did not
consider dancing graceful. "Profes-
sional dancing" he replied, lis, | adj
NIT, graceful enough in some cases.
But what is there of grace in the
dancing of amateurs? A man and a
woman, close together spin solemnly
about a room; the mans long black
coattails flap. Such persons always
look to me as if they had been hired
to dance, and were doubtful if they
would get paid"

Among the unpaid gardeners who

bit. rabbit turf" on the juniper
studded slopes Of the Surrey hills, or
the verges of the Devonshire cliffs, is
almost the finest sward existing. The
constant nibbling of the rabbits, which
work steadily outward from their bur-
rows, cropping the grass again and
again closer than does a moving ma
chine, dwarfs not only the grass but
all other plants and herbs. They also
nibble the furZe bushes and punches Of
heather into cushions and blunt cones
and give to the ground which they fire.

with artifcially rounded and trimmed
shrubs and bushes so characteristic of
the sides Of downs, an effect which the
numbers Of ant hills aid in producing.
On some parts Of the coast, especially
in the sand hills which protect low
lands from the sea, rabbits occasionally
threaten to produce very much more
serious changes in the landscape than
this. They burrow into the sand hills
and weaken them until they are no
longer the firm barrier that they were.

pefyinq Mosquitoes and Heat.

There is a cottage somewhere on
the slope of Orange mountains which
is porched on all sides and screened
against insectiferous pests with gal
vanized mesh. So far so good Com
mon enough and every day. A gutter
extends around the edge of each porch
beneath the cornicing and engaging
with the top of the screening. The
bottom is perforated. In hot weather
this gutter is flushed with water,
which trickles down the screening,
rendering the house cool and keep
ing out all dust. Nothing could be
simpler or more charming. And the
expense is small.

Cremation in Scotland.

Cremation is growing in public
favor in Scotland From the latest
report of the Scottish Burial Reform
and Cremation society we learn that
for the year ended September 80 last
25 cremations were carried out in
Scotland, being an increase Of 10 over
the number of the preceding year.
The total up to the present time is
1872. For a reduced charge of 6
guineas a certificate is now issued in
Scotland carrying the rights, first, to
one cremation, either in Glasgow or
any of the crematoria in Great Brit
ain, and, second, to niche for de-
post of the ashes in the Columbarium
at Maryhill, Glasgow.

SOME FACTS ABOUT TWINS.
Among Other Things They Make as
Much Noise as Four.

Much Noise as Four.
A mother who has twins and is,
perforce, obliged to study the pecu-
lilarities of the species, afirms that
never has she punished one of them
they are both boys-for misdeed but
that the other committed the identical
offense at the very first opportunity.
Moreover, if one asks question, es-
pecially in regard to an unusual hap
pening, in the absence of the other,
his brother almost invariably repeats
the query and very frequently in the
same phraseology. Her twins are not
bad boys Cat times) but the mother
says that she is satisfied of the fact
that twins require as much attention
and make as much noise as four or
binary children.
