Remarkable Rentals.

Strange rents were being discussed
how this church paid one red rose
annually and that convent paid two
doves A real estate man said:
I'VE have some remarkable rentals,
but England beats us here, for she is
the older country, and she delights
in maintaining the quaint customs of
the past.
The splendid manor of Farnham
Royal is held by the service of put
ting the glove on the Kings right
hand and by supporting the arm that
holds the scepter on Coronation Day.
There is no other payment.
THE rental of the manor of Ayles-
Try is three eels in winter and three
green geese in summer, besides a lit
ter of straw for the Kings bedcham-
Der thrice q year If he come that way
so often.
THE manor of Addingtons rental
is pair of gilt spurs, pair of tongs,

head, If needful, as often as he crosses
the sea between Dover and Withstand"

The Farmers Wife

scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it sun bath to sweeten 1t. She knows
that il her churn is sour 1t will taint the
butter that Is made in II. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is 1t not apparent
then that II this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul al which is put into it?
The evil OF foul stomach Is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption OF
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
nation of disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the echurn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellngs,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
II you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and despondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number of them, indicate that you are
suffering from biliousness, torpid or lazy

gestion, or dyspepsia and their attendant

THE SILENT OPINION.
What Men Think of Women and
Women of Men.


Most men have some silent opin-
ions about women and most women
about men. There are certain types
of face, certain kinds of manner, cer-
tain methods of expression even, for
which many men and women are ut
terly condemned in the minds of
some of their brothers and sisters.
A disposition to dislike certain types
of face is at times so strong as to
suggest previous existence.
We do not openly say that all wom-
en- with such and such eyebrows are
hard hearted or that man must be
charlatan if the color of his eyes
and hair contradict each other, but
we act continually upon notions hard
ly less unreasonable. Educated men
with small vocabularies, for instance,
are divided as rule by clever wom-
en- into fools by birth and self-made
fools, according to whether their
want of equipment be ascribed to ma
ture or to affectation
To the first they are indifferent;
to the latter they have almost always
more or less active dislike. Such
men are often able, fact their own
sex invariably recognize. The man
whose words are few and i'll chosen
may be a man of prompt and rea-
soned action, who having been
brought up among the silent wise or
the garrulous silly deprecates the
waste of pains occasioned by the
game of talk. All mental athletics
bore him just as physical athletics
bore others.
In the same way the fact that
man pretends to know no more words
than a savage may be matter of
awkward though genuine humility
a fear of pretending to culture he
does not possess-or an act of super
fetal conformity to passing fashion
among a small set. 1t may have no
more to do with his real mind than
an ugly figure or an III cut coat. Cir
cumstances will sometimes convince
even a clever woman of these facts
so far as a given man is concerned,
but she will never alter her silent
opinion as to the generality.
Clever women are very hard on
the men they imagine to be fools.
Able men, on the other hand, are not
at all hard on women they know to
be stupid. Where youth and beauty
are concerned the fact is easily un.
derstood, but youth and beauty by
no means explain the whole of this
phenomenon. Many men are in.
clined to think that the kind of men.
tai power in women which we colo.
quially call brains exists in inverse
ratio to their common sense and
serves only to carry them with fatig.

The Grl OF Nineteen.seven.

A typical girl of 1907 stood in
side of drawing-room the other
day. Her hair was parted and al
lowed to ripple over her temples.
Around her head were bound two
great fiat Dutch braids so heavy that
they made a great halo around her
brow.
A great, beautiful bow of ribbon
crowned her head. The effect was
too simple and too sweet for any
thing.
The girl of 1907 will be very tall.
she may have to resort to Cuban
heels and to stretching exercises,
and she may want to pile braijs on
top of her head and to wave her hair
high. She will be tall and she will
be slender.
Living skeletons were the fashion
last summer in London. They looked
healthy and they acted as if happy,
and while they were lean, yet they
we're not angular. To attain this
means art was combined with
science.
The best professional models are
now taking a double set of lessons
in massage. There are two kinds
of massage. One kind develops and
the other kind reduces. Women who
are wide awake are practising both
kinds.
1t costs a professional model some
thing to live and keep her figure
these days. She must have two sets
of massage operators. She must
have one masseuse who understands
the art of pounding away the flesh
and another one who understands
the art of putting 1t on
The girl of 1907 Is going to be
very simple. Or she is going to
look as though she were very simple,
She must be absolutely perfect in
the art of sweet simplicity 1t is not
a country-girl simplicity, but an ar
tistic simplicity. milwaukee, News.

New York;. G.. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says
The advancing season has broaden
ed retail trade in staple lines, nota-
bly, heavyweight clothing and foot
wear, while wholesale and jobbing
departments make satisfactory re-
turns, and there is definite improve
ment in the promptness with which
mercantile collections are made.
Current distribution is scarcely more
general than the demand for distant
delivery, indicating that confidence
in the future remains mistaken. In
dustrial operations are on an unpre-
cedented scale, with especial pres
sure at steel mills, car shops and
shipyards. Prices are well maiE-
tained the general level showing a
net gain since the month opened.
Many voluntary advances in wages
are noted, and II is hoped that the
scarcity of labor will be less disturb
ing when farm work is finished.
Railway blockades still delay ship
merts, yet earnings for October thus
far surpassed last years by rs per
.ent.
Aside from the advance of s4 per
ton in the price of pipe at the close
of last week, quotations Of iron and
steel remain steady, but notably firm.
Some mills can promise small deliv-
cries in a few weeks. but as a rule
contracts already on hand assure ac-
tivity far into next year. even with
the increased production that will
follow the opening of new plants.

briefly Magistrate Smith of Long Is
land City has been somewhat indul-
gent with her in the past. His knowl-
edge of the girls good qualities is
complete, as she is employed in his
household. Magistrate Smith, how
ever, realized Friday that there must
be an end to all things, even to eX-
tending clemency to tipping servant
girls, and had the unusual expert
ence of sending his own servant to
Jail for 10 days on charge of in
toxication and disorderly conduct.
The Magistrate accompanied his wife
to Far Rockaway to attend a social
function last Sunday. Lizzie was left
to care for the house during their abb
sence until Monday Mrs. Smith re-
turned to the house alone on Mon-
day. She was shocked to find so
children in front of the house hooting
and yelling at a woman who was
making a political speech on the
front porch. 1t was Lizzie.

Swung Cop BY Coat Tails.

Mrs. Rieka Silverman, mother OF
the push-cart man." fought to free
one of her sons and gave Policeman
Harmon very unhappy 10 minutes.
An admiring East-Side crowd of 5000
persons saw Mother Silverman catch
the policeman by the coat tails and
swing him around twice in the air
almost as easily as child swings a
toy balloon. Mrs. Silverman, who
owns many push-carts, it is said, is
60 years old, weighs nearly 800
pounds and is very muscular Han
non had arrested SHEAR" Wolfsky,
push-cart man, for violating the law.
Wolfsky submitted to arrest quietly,
but Mother Silverman appeared and,
Hannon said, tried to rescue the pris-
oner. Harmon arrested her, too, and
had his hands full. AS the muscular
old woman threw herself on him, a
crowd miraculously sprang from the
street to see the fun. After his aerial
flight the policeman mastered the
woman, just as the reserves were
going out to learn what the row was
about.

The nursing of the sick, the care OF
motherless children, the feeding of
those below the line of subsistence,
the helping and shielding and sooth-
ing that is done by the poor to the
poor every day, IL paid for in dollars
would make the hundred thousand
millionaires poor at sunset.
The spirit of social service is in
the masses of all our people. One
finds it throughout the land, among
workmen who join unions, among
farmers who put in their sick neigh
bor's crops, and country-bred people
who come to one another's help in a
thousand neighborly ways in time of
trouble. The work that is done for
money to buy comforts for the work.
er himself is but small per cent. of
the work done in this world; it is the
work done by fathers for their fam.
lilies, by mothers for their children,
by neighbors for one another-all in.
stinctively following the divine in.
spiration of social help-that has
made our civilization grow and
spread all over America. The great
inventors are not rich; the great
moral and spiritual leaders of men
are not rich, and the greatest of our
political leaders die poor. This is
indeed practical world; that much
we must grant to those who sit in
high places and scoff; but it is made
a practical world by those who. with.
out money, do practical work for the
practical benefit of their fellows, and
who, perhaps. without protesting re.
ligion, are living the spirit of Chris
t.anity in their simple relations with
their real neighbors more surely than
those who have killed their souls for
money, and let the ghosts of them

,;irI Cnddies In demand.

Young women addicted to golf are
securing young girls as caddies. So
there's another masculine occupation
changing hands.
The players say they never had
boy attendant yet who didn't either
giggle, laugh, exclaim or criticise
when the golfer made an off hit.
The boys, too, were apt to run OFF
after stray squirrels, or else were too
busy to come at the very time their
services were most desired. Accord
ing to Good Housekeeping, those
who have tried girls find them more
respectful, more companionable and
more conscientious. Their strength
seems equal to that of the boys.
while their manners are decidedly
more soothing. Philadelphia Record.
