oysters like magic. Never used a
knife, either. Said it was cruel"
How did he manage it?" asked the
guileless young man from uptown.

OF, solemnly. Bought real Scotch

When he held little of it in front Of
the oysters they sneezed the top shell

A condiment is something which
creates a false demand for food. 1t
enables us to eat when we really have
no appetite. Appetite is an evidence
OF gastric juice with which to digest
food. Lack of appetite is an evidence
that one is not in condition to digest
food. But condlment often produces
a false impression resembling appe.
lite, making one think that he is ready
for food when he is not. 1t is, there

Chloe, our maid-of-all-work, had the

w. E. Pratt on Friday of last week,
like all that have preceded it, was
an enjoyable affair. George Kreck
low brought his photograph and
entertained the company for a con-
siderable time in a manner quite in
teresting, The squire was quite as
shy as a woman about telling his age
but the truth had to come. The
fact that be was an old soldier, and
the war forty years in the past,
wouldn't down. Then there were
children right there calling him
grandpa, and it was no use to make
believe Young. Among those from
a neighborlng city, we noticed Il. H.
Couse, who brought all his girls but
two. The next picnic of the kind
will be with Colonel Roberts Of
