SORRY HE SAW HER FIRST.
Game Of Hide-snd-Seek at a Hsuss
Party and Its Sad Ending.

1t was not so very long ago that Q
jolly party of young men and women
from the capital went on a weekend
visit TO Miss Dash, whose father has
a country house not a days journey

read about In smart" novels. They

solidly built It would have been torn
down. Nobody ever heard such rol.
licking laughter, such mad scamper-
ings as went on. Somebody suggest
ed hide and seek. The young people
hid in the attack and the cellar and
in every possible place between. A
normally sedate young man was the
seeker. He galloped about madly,
shouting and searching. He opened
every door he saw and in one room
his keen eyes espied somebody trying
To hide in bed. He pounced forward
and seized the figure.
Get out Of that, be cried. I've
got you You can't hide from me"
Wild shrieks and the noise OF COM
bat rent the air Furious invective
and stammered eXpostulation brought
the rest Of the party in no time al all.
The usually sedate young man had
found the cook and nothing he could
say had any weight with her She
came OF fighting stock. She blacked
his eye snd-well. that's why the
Dash country house is now minus a
cook.

SAYS Kissing Is HeaIthfuI.

A French physician has shocked his
colleagues by insisting that kissing,
instead of being unhealthful, is a most
wholesome practice. Kisses carry
microbes, this authority agrees tut
so much the better He insists that
the interchange of certain bacilii is a
laudable and healthful practice. In
kissing, it is not so much the bad
microbes as the benefcent ones that
are exchanged. These good bacteria
are not only favorable, but essential.
