TEETH THAT WE'RE USELESS
Puzzle to the Man Who Had Sud-
denly Sustained the Loss
of Them.

Harry Leon Wilson, author OF The
spenders," was domiciled for summer
In Connecticut with a colony OF artists
and writer's, all of whom had to go into
the city every day, relates the Saturday
Evening Post.
Wilson was doing nothing but loaf
ing. He loafed artistically. and from
time TO time met and had fun with
some OF the natives OF the place. one
day he found two men in the road who
seemed congenial. and he struck up an
acquaintance with them. He proposed
a drive and they got surrey and two
horses.
Can you driver" asked Wilson.
Sure" one OF his sudden friends re-
piled, ii am fine driver"
They got aboard and started down
the road. Before they had gone half q
mile the team was frightened by q
passing automobile and ran away. The
driver valiantly steered the horses
into telegraph pole and Wilson and
his two friends were thrown heller
SHELTER into the road.
Wilson slowly gathered himself to-
gether. One OF his friends was sitting
in the ditch rubbing his bruises and
the other stood in the middle OF the
road gazing in fearful misery at two
front teeth which he held in the palm
OF his hand.
Pretty lucky escape, wasn't it?"
asked Wilson, for want Of something
better to say.
"Yes," replied the man with the
teeth, weeping afresh, "but please, oh,
please, tell rue, what shall do with
these.?"

it removes the catarrh.

Pitied Pitcoe.

A man who had started with a
friend on a weeks automobile tour
stayed away two weeks. When finally
they got back to town, he went home.
and his wife received him coldly.
What he dreaded was scolding and
an upbraiding. II am SO glad to be
back with you here. DEAR" he said;
"but I pity Pitcoe. Poor old Pitcoe?
What Is the matter with Pitcoe"
said the lady, sharply. \"Ah. poor fel
low" said her husband, "at this mo
ment his wife is giving him the very

DRESS HINTS.

A piece of soft flannel Is better than
brush for removing dust from silk.
Cut steel buttons may be polished
with powdered pumice stone slightly
moistened and applied with a soft
brush or cloth.
A new silk petticoat can be made to
last twice its usual length Of time IL
an underruff1e of sateen be made and
placed on the inside Of the silk nounce
at the edge.
Remember in cutting out a bodice
that all the portions which are liable
to stretch, such as sleeves. Jokes and
collars, should be cut on a lengthwise
fold Of the material.
A short sleeve or long sleeve with
a fullness above the elbow Is always
more satisfactory when made over a
tight fitting lining, as the lining holds
the fullness in its proper place.
To make a walking skirt the right
length - that is, just to clear the
ground without appearing too short
measure the person to be fitted from
the waist line to the ground and then
deduct an inch and half.

SERVING AT DINNER.

Everything at table is passed at the
left hand Of. the person seated and not
at the right hand.
A servant should not ask guest to
have a second portion Of any dish, but
should bring It at once If asked.
A tablespoon and large fork should
be placed by a servant in the entree
dishes previous to handling them.
Vegetables should be handed by a
servant a second time at family din
ner, but only once at a dinner party
unless specially requested.
When a large dinner party is given
the guests should be helped In the or
der In which they are seated, COM
mencing with the lady seated at the
hosts right hand.
In the family circle the mistress Of
the house is served first, then the
daughters according to their ages. the
master Of the house and the sons &C.
cording to their ages.
When a fork or spoon Is asked for It

said. He was asked to try it imme-

off to the barn and brought out three
lusty mules hitched to a crosstree

had rope. The contrivance had be-
yond doubt been fixed up for just
such an emergency.
"You are sure you want me to do
this work. he inquired.
He was assured that there was no
doubt Of 1t, and then he delayed just
enough more to exact 81 for every
machine he was to haul up. There
were remarks that it was robbery and
a holdup and piratical performance.

were made when he was not near.

How to Stain Floors.

Here is a good recipe for staining
floors and also for staining around the
carpet in q bedroom: First get the floor
perfectly clean. If there are cracks
between boards fill them. then mix lin
seed oil and burnt. lumber together. a
tablespoonful to pint Of linseed oil.
Stir it thoroughly. If You wish II
darker. put in more lumber: II lighter,
use more oil. Put 1t on the floor with
clean paint brush. Rub 1t evenly.
After a few days. when dry. put on &.
second coat. Try little Of the stain
on piece OF wood first to get the color
you wish. When it gets soiled or dusty
mop 1t of with little warm boraN
water. which will clean it nicely anf
not hurt the stain. You can retoucE
it now and then If it needs ii. This
finish resembles hardwood floor.

Chatting Dish Utensils.

Useful utensils for the chatting dish
are a wooden spoon and a measuring
cup of glass marked into halves, quar-
tiers and thirds. a glass mug Is more
of an ornament than tin one. A
metal tray. too. is important-ons that
IS large enough to hold not only the
chafing dish. but the spoons, salt, pep
per, etc, used for seasoning. The tray
will prevent any danger OF burning
from the heat Of the lamp or from
alcohol that may be spilled. Glass and
porcelain Jars IN numerous sizes and
with tight covers are very useful for
the chafng dish closet. Very good
toast may be made over the chatting
dish. For this purpose a little wire
toaster covered with an asbestus mat
is made either with or without han
die. The toaster is placed on the frame
directly over the fame.

FIGURES IN GIRLS EYE.

The Numerals 22,4 Plainly Marked

The Petit: PArlsien. publishes soberly
the details of remarkable story Of a
child one of whose eyes is distinctly
marked with three numerals ana q
punctuation point, says a special Paris
cable dispatch to the New York Sun.
The strange tale comes from Pointe du
Finisterre, where is the half forgotten
Islst of Tudy, which is named In honor
Of the saint who is venerated through
out Bretagne.
On the isIet live the family Of fish,
erman Of the name of, lie Guen, con-
sisting Of the rugged father and mother
and a daughter, Marie, four years old.
The parents have had much sorrow
through the loss Of two older children
and have exercised much care In rails
ing Marie She has a transparent skin
and eyes as blue as the sky where far
OF it seems continent with the sea.
Marie has been celebrated for some
time for q distance Of ten leagues
around her home, visitors daily going
to the fisherman's matched hut and
looking on her as veritabfe phenom-
enon.
Craven on the corner Of her left eye
below the pupil in horizontal line
are the figures 22,4. They are clearly
visible, as is also the well formed COM
ma. The other eye is unmarked. Doc
tors and oculists have examined the
child.
The Petit Parisien asked DR.. Gueval
Of Point pAbbe to examine her to de-
ternlne the cause Of the abnormality.
He declined to give formal opinion,
but suggested three explanations-that
1t was hereditary through nerve dis
eased ancestors, which neurologists
must determine; that II IL the sttgmata
Of a vegetable growth or that 1t Is duo
to medical tattooing with pirate Of sill
yer, necsssitated by an affection Of the
eye In early infancy. The parents de-
clare that the girl never underwent an
operation.
Druggist de Bizac. who has closely
studied the case, believes that the fig
ures are formed by strictions Of the eye
itself. He cites in support Of this that
the figures are not visible when looking
at the eye straight in front, but only
when looking at certain angle.
The child Is coming to Paris for ex-
animation. Her sight does not suffer
from her popularity. The Petit Pari-
sien records as a coincidence, which it
declares Is worth noting, that a fishing
boat at the neighboring port Of Douar-
nenez carries the number 22,4.
