Instead he trots along a boundary

on the bank opposite his home tree.

runs hard toward a big gum and from
a dozen feet away takes a flying leap

CURING A HYpocHoNDRIAc.
When His Faults Were Paraded the
Man OF vagaries Immediately
Got Well.

An odd story Of a hypochondriac and
the amusing manner Of his cure is cred
tied to the late Dr. Emily p. Robbins.
who was the first woman physician in
this country, relates an exchange.
"Ar Fort Madison, where | first prac-
ticed, she said, there was hypochon-
driac OF great wealth, whom friend of
mine, DR.. Gray, attended.
Some days this hypochondriac would
think himself teapot. Again he would
be kettle, or his legs would be turning
into glass. He was, altogether, trying
subject for old DR.. Gray to deal with,
but one morning the limit was reached.
for when the doctor asked how he felt
he said, grufiy:
How do feel? Why, | don't feel
at all. I'm dead. | have been dead for
several hours How can a dead man
feel?'
"Dr. Gray determined, for once, to
humor him. He said:
"'Yes, you are dead sure enough.
Come upstairs and be laid out. Wen
send for the undertaken to measure you
for your coffin
"The patient consented to this
though with rather uneasy look, and
got into bed and stretched himself out
in a stiff, corpselike attitude.
"They dressed him in grave clothes;
they put him in a coffin; they placed
flowers in the dim room, and then they
admitted two or three at time, his best
and oldest friends
"These friends. having been well
coached, gazed at the corpse and shook
their heads sadly.
"Ah, one would say, so he is dead
at last. eh? Well, a greater villain never
lived
He must have died hard, another
would murmur They say the wicked
die hard always
"a third friend exclaimed: He cheat
ed me once out Of $1,000 loaned the
money 70 him without security, and he
pretended that he had neger received it,.
"At this the hypochondrIac sat up in
his coffin
You lie, George. he said. bitterly.
But Dr. Gray pushed him back, whis-
pering to him to remember he was dead,
and he subsidized again.
"But when an old and trusted servant
said Of him. in a loud voice:
Well, the old curTudgeon is gone,
and am GLAD Of it. the hypochondriac
could contain himself no longer. He
leaped out Of the coffin and seized the
servant by the throat
"sYou scoundrel, he exclaimed, T.
But a great shout Of laughter went up;
the patient seemed for the first time to
realize his folly; he turned and went out
for a walk. and never again did he per-

DEPARTED GLORY.

Empress Eugene has just been cele-
brating the fftieth anniversary of her
wedding, and spent the day at Paris,
most of the time gazing out from the
window of the hotel upon the gardens
of the Tuileries, which were her home
for seventeen years. One can imagine
all her memories, both sad and gay, as
she sat there-memories in particular
of a sovereignty IN one sense of the
word unique. She remains on record
as the only queen or empress who has
ever been the arbiter and acknow-
lodged leader of feminine fashions.
Although not of royal birth, her SOY
ereignty in this respect was undis-
puted, even by the bitterest feminine
foes of the Napoleonic regime.
When she lost her throne she like
wise ceased to be the ruler of fashion.
But as anexile, and more particularly
as a lonely widow, she obtained what
she had never enjoyed during her oc-
cupancy of the French throne, name
ly, the warm friendship and regard of
her sister queens and expresses, who
with the single exception of Queen
Victoria had declined to look upon
her as member of their cast.until she
lost her crown.

POLITENESS I'M JAPArt
Even "Gtving Notice" Is Made an DC
casiOn of Compliments.

Even "Gtving Notice" Is Made an Oc-
casiOn of Compliments.
Politeness distinguishes the relations
between mistresses and maids in ia
pan. 1t is so memorable in Japan that
even the ceremony of giving notice"
is turned into an occasion of compli-
ments. There are no vulgar threats
or sulkings or recriminations or scold-
ings or answering back" A servant
will never tell her mistress that she Is
dissatisfied or has had some better
place offered her. That would be I'M
pardonably rude. Instead she asks
for few days leave of absence. This
is willingly granted, for japanese serv-
ants have no settled time for taking
holidays.
At the end of the given time the mis-
tress will begin to wonder what has be-
come of the girl. She is not left to
wonder long. A letter arrives couched
in the most polite and humble terms
and giving any excuse but the real one.
Sometimes 1t will be that she has
found herself too weak for service or
that illness at home detains her. What
ever it may be, the plea is never con-
tested, but accepted as final and new
servant engaged. Then, after some
weeks have passed, very likely after
taking a fresh place, the old servant
will turn up one day, express her
thanks for past kfndnesses and regrets
at not returning in time, will take her
arrears of wages and her bundles and
disappear forever. So the matter ends
with the kindest semblance of feeling
on both sides.
If the mistress on her part does not
wish to have the girl back, she will not
tell her so to her face, but will send
word. Even when servants come on
trial for a few days they often leave
nominally to fetch their belongings or
make arrangements for their return,
never because they have any "com-
plants" to make. Any discomfort is
to be endured rather than the suspi-
cion of bad manners or of anything
leading up to scene"

ADVERTISING.

Advertising is not something to be
bought outright and paid for in the
lump. 1t is a steady expense, like
rent and salaries. Some beginners
are inclined to grumble because re-
turns stop when ads are discontinued.
They willingly incur the expense of a
three months campaign, but are
frightened at the prospect of paying
for space year.after year. Many be-
ginners just miss a fine success
through this unreasonable short-sight-
edness. There is not hardly an office
or store expenditure of any moment
that is not continuous. Wages and
salaries must be paid every month, in
surance is al expense, while even the
Office safe wears out and must be re-
placed No business man wastes time
in grumbling at these outgoes. Yet he
thinks that advertising, which makes
the entire business profitable, ought
to be trifing investment made once
and for all, which is a most unreason-
able bit of paradox Printers Ink.
