Small tables were disposed throughout
the rooms, each dainty and beautiful
with its white cover laid over pink which
brought out the delicate embroidery.
lace and. drawn work. Across each,
diagonally from corner to corner, were
pink ribbons and at their intersection a
vase of pink and white sweet peas or.
asters. Name cards designated the
place each guest was to occupy and by
each card were favors of pink and white
asters. Pink and white gladiolas. and
asters in the same colors were used with
green throughout the parlors and hall
and pink shades softened the light from
the chandeliers. Mrs. H. A.. Davis,
screened from the rest of the guests,
played twelve selections upon the piano
and each lady wrote upon a card the
names of the pieces played. Mrs.C. w.
Rau and Mrs. M. L., Ayers each re-
ceived a large bunch of asters tied with
pink ribbon for writing the titles cor
rectly. Mrs. C. H. Wiley than sang
"Sweet Adeline." Following this was a

sachet, each bearing a number, was
given each guest, also a pink and green
water color booklet, bidding the r~eseiver
to Guess A fine sense of touch
proved the thing most to be desired as
each sack was found to contain a differ
ent object to be determined without
sight. The objects were various and
mirth.provoking and guessing" proved
a most delightful entertainment. Mrs.
w. F. Burnett was most successful and
was awarded a large bunch of choice
flowers. The shades were drawn in the
dining room, the only light coming from
the many green candles with their pink
shades shedding a soft light upon the
dainty richness of silver and cut glass
and the beauty of the room and flowers
The chandelier was wound with smilax
and pink flowers and wreaths of smilas
fell to the round table beneath. where
Mrs. Henry Reichert presided daintil,

THE DOGS COLD NOSE.
Its Origin, According to the LO
Book of NOah's Ark.

Its Origin, According to the Los
Book of NOah's Ark.
1.-THE true story of the dogs cold
nose has been handed down to us sail
ors from the log book Of the ark" says
a sailor in the New York Times. Mrs.
Noah went down one morning to the
potato bin in the lower hold for the
vegetables required for the monday
meal. Her favorite collie dog, Nip, fol-
lowed her, as was his daily custom.
While Mrs. Noah was sorting out the
tubers the ark collided with q small
snag, which punctured small hole In
her side close to where the lady stood.
Seeing that immediate action was nee.
essary, she took off her wooden petit
coat and apron and stuffed them into
the hole, but the pressure of the water
forced the things out, and so she put
them back again and sat on them, call
ing loudly for assistance. But no one
seemed to hear her, as the animals
were making such a noise. In her po-
sition she leaned back so that the
backs Of her arms were pressed mp
against the cold sides of the vessel;
hence the backs of women's arms are
always cold. The water was coming
in fast, and she began to fear for the
safety of the ark, so she jumped UP
and, grabbing Nip, put his nose into
the hole and babe him stay there until
she went to the fore hatch and shout
ed for help. A carpenters mate heard
her and came down into the hold with
a soft pine plug, released poor Nip and
stopped the leak. The water outside
was very cold, and Nip got cold nose
and hence all healthy dogs have a cold
nose"

A certain member of the house of

fancy to u handsome COnnaught lad
and engaged him as fOotman.
"O'Brien," said his lordship to the
new servant one morning, "see If your
mistress is at home today"
"That her ladyship is, your lordship,"
was the ready reply of the unsophisti-
Gated youth. "Sure, OF jist saw her
Eadyship go into the drawing ROOM" !.
"You misunderstood me, O'Brien,"
said his lordship stiffly. go and ask
your mistress If she is at home today"
"Sure, now" muttered the puzzled
footman as he obeyed, ''if his lordship
amt quare! Why, OF saw her ladyship
with my own eyes! And now Orve got
to ask her that same, and she's in the
house all the tonne"
Then, thrusting his head into the
drawing room, he asked, "Are you at
home, my ladyT'
mo, O'Brien; not today" replied his
mistress, and the fOotman retired slow
ly in utter bewilderment.
"Well, we'll" exclaimed nonplused

REMEDY FOR HAY FEVER.

After Trying Other Treatments. Hy-
ouuei Was Used with Perfect Sue
cess.
J. F. Forbes, a we'll known West
ern railroad man, whose home is at
McCook, Nebraska, writes, ~ have
never had any relief from any remedy
for hay fever, even temporarily, un-
til discovered the merits of Hyomei.
I always recommend it when occasion
requires. !"
There is no offensive or dangerous
stomach dosing when Hyomei is used.
This reliable remedy for the cure of
all diseases of the respiratory organs
is breathed through neat pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit, SO
that the air taken into the throat and
lungs is like that of the White Noun
tains or other health resorts, where
hay fever is unknown.
The fact that Anders Jacobsen
agrees to refund the money to any
hay fever sufferer who uses Hyomei
without success, should inspire conf
dence in it's power to effect q cure.
A complete outfit costs only $1.OO
and extra bottles but so cents.

BOATING ON The NILE.

The Best Pilots RWn Aground Two Oh
Three Times q Day.
Navigation on the Nile Is not so com
plIcated a matter as upon the north
Atlantic, writes Alonzo Clarke Robin
son In Outing. To run at full speed
upon a sand bar Is an occurrence OF
such frequency as hardly to elicit 9
crew take more interest because they
are obliged to push the boat of again
with poles, and this entails a great
amount Of shouting and some work
The Nile below the first cataract Is q
fairly broad, muddy river, flowing be
tween deposed banks varying from
six to eight to twenty to thirty feet In
height. Its surface is interrupted ev-
erywhere by sand splits and islands
upon which are to be seen thousands
Of birds. The channel, If such it can
be called, winds from one side to the
other and changes completely with ev-
cry flood; hence even the best pilots
run aground two or three times a day.

simply run plump on the bank, two
men leap out and drive stakes to which
to make fast, and there you are for the
night. A very simple and effective
method, without any ostentation and
requiring very little knowledge of
mathematics; it has also the advantage
Of variety. Sometimes one finds one
self alone beneath the wonderful
Egyptian moon lighting up the river,
the distant cliffs and the silent, empty
plain, or perhaps one stops near some
little native village, in which case the
bank is lined with silent, curious fig
ures, who crouch for hours wrapped in
their white cloth coverings. Once we
tied up beside a lonely brick kiln. The
sight was a weird one. The red flare
Of the furnace, fed with sugar cane,

continue to suffer rather than submit
to examinations which so many physi-
clans propose in order to inteligently
treat the disease; and this is the rea-
SON why 50 many physicians fail to
cure female disease.
This Is also the reason why thousands
upon thousands of women are CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass. To her they can contide every
detail of their illness, and from
her great knowledge, obtained from
years Of experience in treating female
Ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women
more wisely than the local physician.

Old Man of the Mountain.

The title sold Man Of the Mountain
was first applied to Hassan Ben Sab
bal, who founded a formidable dynas-
ty in Syria A. D. 1890. He was the
prince or chief Of the sect Of the Mo-
hammedans. Having been banished
from his country, he took up his abode
In Mount Lebanon, gathered around
him band of followers, who soon be-
came the terror alike Of Christians,
Jews and Turks. They paid the most
implicit obedience to his commands
and believed that If they sacrificed
their lives for his sake they would be
rewarded with the highest joys Of
paradise. For 200 years these "Assas-
SINS" as they called themselves, con-
tinued to be the terror Of the country.
Whenever their chief, the ''Old Man
Of the Mountain" considered himself
injured he dispatched some Of his as
sassins secretly to murder the aggres-
sor. This is the origin Of our use of the
word assassin for a secret murderer.

This oath is slowly repeated by the

Of the supreme court, in the presence Of

side of the capitol. While the oath is
being repeated the president elect and

elect bows his head and kisses the open
page Of the book, and it has been Gus
tomary for him or for his wife or
friend to select some appropriate pas
sage at which the book shall be opened
and the verse upon which he shall press
his lips. Sometimes. when those inter-

always careful to note and mark the
exact place where the lips touched the
