FRENCH PoLlrENEss.
6ulldev Of Submarines Tells OF His
Experiences.


Simon Lake, the builder of subma-
rines, returned recently from Paris,
where lie was much impressed with
French politeness.
"A delightful civility," he said, the
other day, marks the demeanor of the
French people. A French nobleman is
as polite to his servants as poor
American is to millionaire. In the
shops the salepeople receive you with
an air that is neither servile nor i'm
pudent, an indescribable air of friend
illness that is wholly charming. In the
subway and on the electric tramways
and omnibuses the conductors are as
polite as though their cars were their
parlors and you an honored guest.
Il congratulated Frenchman one
evening on the good manners of his ma
ton, and he was very much pleased.
He told me an anecdote illustrative
of French politeness.
HE said during the revolution a
noble was on the way to the guillotine.
AS he rumbled in the cart along the
boulevards bowls and jeers from a
half-drunken crowd were rained upon
him, and finally a young woman, as
she ran along beside the turmoil,
cried:
"'You tall villain, you will soon be
shorter by head,
"'Does that please you, madam?
said the doomed noble clvililly.

Then, said he, L do not die In

WedLuefe
February is month Of severe storms
and intense cold.
Even in the South where the prevail
ing temperature is much above wintry
latitudes, February brings sudden
changes of temperature.
Mercury sometimes drops 20 degrees
in single night.
Therefore, the following health hints
are applicable to the whole OF North
America:
Ventilation.
The sleeping rooms should be well
ventilated, but SO as to avoid direct
currents of air.
Bathing.
Those in vigorous health should take
q cold water towel bath every morning
before breakfast. Those in feeble
health should take brisk dry-towel-
rub every morning.
DIET
The diet should be a generous one,
including meat, and occasionally fresh
vegetables.
Sunshine
The nights being long and the days
short, as much sunshine as possible
should be let into the house during
the day.
CIofhi1g.
The head should be kept cool at all
times. The feet should be kept warm
and dry, day and night.
Koruna.
When unavoidably exposed to cold or
wet, few doses of Peruna will avert
bad consequences.
PrecautioR.
When seized with chill, or even
slight chilliness, dose of Peruna
should be taken at once.
