Women and Jewels.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man
that IS the order of woman's pref
erences. Jewels form a magnetic
mighty power to the average wo-
man. Even that greatest of all
jewels, health, is often ruined in
the strenuous effort to save the
money to purchase them. If q
woman will risk her health to get
a coveted gem, then let her fortify
herself against the insiduous con-
sequences of coughs, colds and
bronchial affections by regular
use of DR.. Boschee's German Syr-
up. 1t Will promptly arrest con-
sumption in it's early stages and
heal the affected lungs and broh-
chial tubes and drive the dread

chial troubles. You can get DR..

Two Uqly Men.

The Due de Roquelaure was a
man of great ugliness and much hui
NOR. One day he met in the street
most unlovely looking Auvergnat,
who had some petition or memorial
to present at Versailles. He imme-
diately introduced himself to Louis
XIV, remarking that he was under
special obligation to him. The
king granted the favor asked for
and then inquired Of the due what
might be the nature of the obliga-
ton. ''But for him, your majesty,
l should be the ugliest man in your
dominions"
| am reminded of Heidegger, the
manager of the opera house in the
Haymarket when George II. was
king. One day he laid a wager with
the Earl of Chesterfield that he
would not find in all London an
uglier face than his. After a long
search the earl produced a woman
of st. Giles who at first seemed to
outvie the manager, but when the
latter put on the woman's headgear
his superior ugliness was at once
admitted.-All the Year Round.

A Matter of Business.

"NIr. Bong" said the secretary Of
the Fearful Accident Insurance
company, "be sure to drop in al
old Curmudge's as you pass this
morning and express your sympathy
over the loss of his brother in the
railroad accident yesterday. Elk,
press mine also to him."
"But old Curmudge had no broth,
er in the accident" said the can,
vasser.
"What has that to do with it p
said the secretary cheerily. "All he
can do is to tell YOU So"
"But it might unnecessarily alarm
him." persisted the canvasser.
"That's the point; that's exactly
the point" returned the secretary
cheerily. "Alarm him as much "a
possible. His own policy runs out
next month, and it is one of ou1
duties to remind our patrons that
in the midst of life we are surround,
ed by accidents"

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.
How the Boys of an English School
Provide a Victim.

When crowd of boys in board
ing school have ~tttled on some
mischief by common consent and
have been detected and ordered to
bring forward the Iingleader to be
punished, there is often great dill
ference of opinion as to who the
ringleader really is. The boys OF
Winchester college, in England,
have hit upon a scheme for settling
the matter, says a master OF the
school, the Rev. G. NJ. a. Hewett.
When the master demands a vic
tim as sacrifice of atonement for
breaking rules, the boys get all to-
gether, and each puts twopence into
a hat. Then each boys name is
written on a slip, and lots are
drawn. The one who is chosen to
be the victim takes the collection in
the hat and delivers himself over
to the master as the ringleader.
Then when he has been sufficiently
punished he goes downtown and
consoles himself with ice cream
bought by the common fund.

Initiated Papa.

A little girl before going out to a
tea party was coached in conduct
by a fond mamma. "You may take
cake twice if it is offered you, but
if you are asked third time you
must say, with all possible polite
ness, NO, thank you" On her
return home she gave assurance she
had remembered and followed the
maternal instructions. But" she
added, 'the servant brought the
cake to me a fourth time
".And what did you say them"
inquired mamma. "Oh," was the
startling rejoinder, 'then l thought
of what papa does sometimes, and
l said, Take it away, and don't
bother.'"

She Could Spell Too.

Kittie's little cousin had an exas-
perating habit of spelling her words
when she wished to keep secrets
from the Younger child, whose
knowledge of the alphabet was linn
tied to one solitary letter.
"Kittie," said the little girl one
day shortly before the holidays,
''I'm going to give you beautiful
doll for Christmas. What are
you going to give me?"
"Someting des lovely" said Kit
tie, not to be outdone in the matter
of spelling. "I'm going to give 90
a boo'ful crooked S."

But the President after looking into the ques-
