a Judfcious Blend OF black. Nhite,
Gray and Chinese Lies.
A distinguished preacher once divid-

lies and Chinese lies" The feminine
fib is generally judicious blend Of the
white lie and the Chinese lie. For the
benefit OF those who have never grad

may be explained that Chinese lie Is,
as a rule. purely ornamental. being Of
the nature Of embroidery, which Is In
tended 10 add beauty and color 10 the
plain object on which II is used as
trimming.
The Chinese lie is prompted by the
very highest and noblest Of motives
namely, a desire 10 give pleasure TO

served up and made quite tasty and
appetlzing by a little judiclous garni-
ture Of Chinese -er-embroidery. Iii

she has the modification OF finding that
her little efforts TO please quite fail In
their effect. And not only that; but,
what is more trying still, she even finds
that when from lack OF material for
fictional purposes she does for once
serve up the cold ungarnished truth
her hearers have so got in the habit OF

Norwegian Cure For Drunkenness.

In Norway drunkenness is punished
by imprisonment. AS soon as man IS
incarceratcd the delinquent has loaf
and wine morning and evening. The
bread is served in 4 wooden bowl full
of wine, in which it has been soaking
for an hour. The first day the drunkard
swallows his allowance willingly
enough. The second day it seems less
pleasing. At the end Of eight or ten
days prisoners have been known to abb
stain alto%ether from the food thus pit
ilessly presented. This course Of treat
ment finished, the drunkard, except in
rare instances, is radically cured.
