LONDON COSTER GIRLS.
They Must sport Ostrich Plumes on
Their Holiday Outings.

Ostrich plumes are as much neces-
sity to the London coster girl on her
outings as are the pearl buttons to her
masculine companion, and the big
trimmed hats with their dropping
feathers are familiar in all gatherings
of this class.
Many of the girls cannot afford to
keep their money tied up in useless
plumes and there thrives brisk indus
try in the hiring of these feathers.
The loan of q single plume for Il day
costs but / shilling or for 4 shlllings
a gorgeous trio may be had for an
outing, to be returned promptly the
next morning.
Weather conditions determine the
terms somewhat, since a wet or foggy
day will take the curl out of the feath.

rent out several hundred plumes. while
on other occasions there Is n steady
trade with young women who wish to

NERVOUSNESS.
ITS Causes, Its Cure and Its Evil Ef-

There are five causes of nervousness:

weak; CN loss of sleep; (dl the use of
iupropc" fools and drinks; (e) associa-
ton with e!Tatic, eXcitajle, nervous,

When the life force is constantly
leaving the body at the finger tips, at

faculties of self mastery, unless he in

necessary each and every day, un-
less he eats the right kind of foods and
drinks the right kind of drinks and un-
less he associates with the right kind

In the antelope valley of California
grows the strihlgest yucca tree of all
the western desert The yucca is
tree not given to whms. 1t has been
described by Van Dyke as having "a
tall stalk rising like shaft from a
bowl and capped at the top by nodding
creamy flowers" But the strange arch
ing yucca has made itself famous by
its curious form. Nobody watched it
grow. All that is known about 1t is
that it has two roots, its great stalk
or trunk describing n graceful arch,
rooted firmly into the, ground at each
end. At the top of the arch a great
branch. like an extended arm, shoots
forth as if pointing out the way. The
arch is so high that u tallyho coach
could easily pass under it.

A Story and Bit of Sarcasm About
New England.
Unless you happen to have been born
In New England | suppose 1t is impos-
sible for you to appreciate what floor
really means to a conscientious house
keeper. ! met a middle aged woman
up in New Hampshire one summer
who had the floor worship fetch to
really abnormal degree. The last thing
she did every night after turning the
cat out and locking the windows was
to scrub tho kitchen floor the idea be-
ing, suppose. that if the house burned
down in the night the neighbors should
not be able to find any spots to convict
her of untidiness.
One night it happened that her hus-
band was busy in the barn. and, for
getting that he had not come in, she
manicured the floor. She had scarcely
finished when he was heard at the
kitchen steps. He couldn't come In by
the front door because that was sealed
to keep out dust, and his wife simply
wasn't going to have him tracking over
her clean floor, so she made him sleep
in the barn. He had plenty of clean
hay to sleep on, and he was perfectly
comfortable.
Men are scarce in New England,
understand. | don't doubt a bit that
they've been killed off to save the
floors.-Washngt Post.

ed by padding with cotton, hay or some
other suitable material.
Upon this groundwork is placed the
papier mache which usually forms the
exterior. This substance is so light
and is applied with such skill that the
resemblance to the human features
and figure is really remarkable. Oc-
casionally the face is formed by a mask
showing the flesh tints, but the majori-
ty of the giants may be termed enor-
nous dolls, since their mode of con
struction is so similar to that of this
toy and so much of the same material
enters into their composition. At least
once a year the giants are placed upon
vehicles and drawn about the streets in
a procession, in which regular and vol
unteer soldiers take part their escorts
sometimes numbering 1000 people.
One we'll known group of giants is
known as the GayOn family, the men,
bers of which are among the largest
in Europe. The father of the family is
no less than twenty feet in height, from
the top of the plumes in his helmet to
his feet, while his spear is over twen-
ty feet in length and the shield larger
in circumference than the wheel Of an
ordinary wagon. Nine. Gayon is eight
cen feet in height. They are supposed
to have three children, the largest Of
whom is eleven feet in height, the next
is ten feet and the baby" taller than
an ordinary man.

WORDS WITHOUT RHYMES.
Lfttte Lesson That the Banker
Eenrned From the Poet.

Eenrned From the Poet.
'This minor poetry seems futile to
me-" the banker said, sneering. "Any-
body can turn it out. A lunatic can
write minor poetry. It's only a ques
ton of rhymes"
"You sneer at rhymesw interjected
the fat and bald poet Give mo Il
rhyme for lounge"
The banker thought for three min
utes but in vain. He was stumped.
"Try me again" he said.
"a rhyme for 'sylph.'"
Again the banker failed.
"a rhyme for wasp"
Nothing doing" said the banker aft
er a long pause.
"'Gulf,' mouth hemp pint
'puss.
"By jingo," said the banker, II can't
think of rhyme for any of those
words"
The minor poet tried him again with
"bilge," "depth," wolf" with"
volt" scarf Sauce" "fugue,"
"bulb" and "bourn."
I'm stuck" confessed the banker.
minor poetry is harder than thought.
It's wonder to me you fellows are
not paid more"
1--WE don't care anything about the
pay. It's the glory we are after" the
poet answered, with dignity. But
have been tricking you. For the words

CONSUMpTION'S WARNING

Inside facts soon become evident in outside
symptoms.-DR. C. G. GREEN.
CThe aid of scientific inventions is not
needed to determine whether your lungs
are affected. The first symptoms can be
readily noted by anyone of average in
telligence.
GThere is no disease known that gives so
many plain warnings of its approach as
consumption, and no serious disease that
can be so quickly reached and checked,
if the medicine used is DR.. Boschee's
German Syrup, which is made to cure
consumption.
GIt is i'll the early stages that German
Syrup should be taken, when warnings
are given in the cough that won't quit,
the congestion of the bronchial tubes and
the gradual weakening of the lungs, &C
coinpanied by frequent expectoration.
GBut no matter how deep-seated your
cough, even if dread consumption has
already attacked your lungs, German
Syrup will surely effect a cure-as it hes
done before in thousands of apparently
hopeless cases of lung trouble.
