An Apinal Story For
Little Folks
Why They Did Not Marry

Mr.. Jim Panzee was very much In
love with Miss Bah Boone. Who was
known to be very terrible fiirt.
But Jim did not seem to care, though
the young lady was very hard to suit.
He tried his best to please her. Put
ting on his best looks he would come
and sit for hours at the foot OF her
tree and sigh and smirk and look coy,
and she would sit behind her palm leaf
fan and look bored and weary.
But she liked Jim for all that, and
think they would soon have been mar
ried, as Jim was about to propose. but
for one little event

Reducing the Hips.

One of the most strenuous exercises
for reducing the hips, but one of the
best for the reason that it is specific
for awkwardness and stiffened muscles
as well, is running on all fours. This is
not usually considered graceful feat,
but it can be made so, and when a
woman succeeds in performing the feat
gracefully, then her awkwardness is a
thing of the past, and she has taken
pounds of superfluous flesh off her hips.
First, there will naturally be a rush Of
blood to the head. The novice will be
dizzy, her arms will ache and her limbs
be sore and lame. But practice it ten
minutes day for six months, and the
result will be well worth the effort in
fort invOlved.-New York Telegram.

A Mathematical Puzzle.

Here is a strange little puzzle, which
has the same answer, independent Of
the fact that no two people solving the
puzzle We're born the same year and
consequently use the same figures
Write down the figures Of the year you
were born and from this take away
four. Add your age at next birth
day II 1t comes before January, other
wise your age at your last birthday
Multiply the result by 1000 and from
this deduct 6S5, 423. Substitute for the
figures corresponding letters of the al
phabet, as A for 1, B for 2, etc. Tho
result is Chinese table delicacy
which is used in this country for cleo
tioneerlng purposes. Strike out the
first letter and transpose those that re-
main to form word.

TONIC TO THE SYSTEM.

For liver troubles and constipation
there is nothing better than DeWitt's
Little Early Risers, the famous little
Pills. They do not weaken the stomach.
Their action upon the system is mild,
pleasant and harmless. Bob Moore, of
Lafayette, Ind, says: mo use talking,
DeWitt's Little Early Risers do their
work. All other pills have used grippe
and make me sick in the stomach and
never cured me. DeWit's Little Early
Risers proved to be the long sought re-
lief. They are simply perfect" Persons
travelling find Little Early Risers the
most reliable remedy to carry with them.

How to Make Delicious Pie Crust.

How to Make Delicious Pie crust.
| often wonder why women with
plenty of milk and cream in their pan
tries do not make more and better uses
of those valuable helps to almost every
part of any bill of fare.
Many people cannot eat pie because
the crust distresses them. Yet there is
a way by which if the crust, the objec-
tionable part, be made, the result need
not be otherwise than very cream of a
pie. And while it may be out of the
reach of city jewellers generally, there
are a vast number of country and village
matrons who have always at hand the
article peculiar to its construction. This
is cream. A little salt, as much thick
cream as will be necessary as a mixing
element to 90 with enough flour to make
the quantity wished, are all the materials
required.
The method from scientific stand
point is success. With its simplicity
the articles used, except the pinch of
salt, being only two-failure is impossi-
BILE. This, even to the expert, is COM
mendation, but to the young matron the
happiest relief. To get just the right
proportion of lard and water, and to 30
mix and roll that the crust would be
neither tough nor soggy, short enough
yet not too short, and flaky and tender,
is the most difficult feat in cOOkery.-Ex.
