QUEER DoINGs OF MEN.

A man will always stir his coffee be-
fore drinking it. This is very foolish
he should taste it first to sec if it needs
stirring.
A man subjects the point Of his pen
to careful scrutiny before commencing
to write a letter. A woman starts right
off-jabs her pen in the inkpot and
straightway begins to scribble as if
her life depended on it.
Few men open their personal CORE
spondence without looking at the posi-
marks to see the time of posting.
Women on the other hand, tear open
the envelope at once-they are in too
much of hurry to waste any time.
1t is the man who let's out secrets
not by telling them, but by il-timeG
silences. He does worse-by refusing
to crafty the curiosity of his ques-
TONERS he invariably causes them to
jump to conclusions much more dam
aging than the truth of the matter
1t is the man who reads with his
back to the light, holding his book in
one hand. Herein lies wisdom A
woman rests her book on the table
and leans both elbows thereon. But
the foolishness of the mans act lies il
the fact that he is seeking comfort and
seldom takes this position because il
is; the most scientific one OF course
he finds it isn't CONFERENCE.-The arm
aches after the first ten minutes
whereupon he puts his book down anC
remarks he is going out.

and is made as follows: Soak a tea
spoonful of Grape-Nuts in glass of
water for an hour, strain. and serve
with the beaten white of-an egg and
a spoonful Of fruit juice or favoring.
This affords a great deal of nourish-

Regarding the equal guilt of all the
| indicted corporations, Judge McPher-
son said:
Il assess the fines against all of said
| corporations at the same sum. l do
this on full consideration. These par
! ties were all together in this scheme:
with like motive and purpose. The
| corporation that grants concessions lis
! neither more nor less guilty than the
party who receives such benefits, and
| the form of the indictment cannot
| change this any more than in the case
| of one who steals and and one who
! knowingly receives stolen goods. Rail
roads and shippers must be treated
alike in cases wherein they violate the
Elkins law.
This is so both under the law and
under any code OF morals. Both ship
pers and the railroads must under
stand that however artful the scheme
there is quail intelligence, which vii
uncover and expose its nakedness. An(
