none other than Dean Stanley, who
was driving with Q friend from Mon

In Jersey City suffered from spasmod-

attributed to rheumatism. He consult

for medicine, but continued to grow
worse One morning recently the Of.

arched his back and rubbed against
the AFFLICTED calf. The clerk gave q
vicious kick with his bad leg and q
gray streak shot through the air. He
hobbled to . chair and sat down with
. few stirring remarks about cats and
Rheumatism. A few minutes later he
gritted his teeth hard and arose. He
shook his leg and feebly smiled. Then
he walked like q drum major across
the door and boisterously shook hands
with himself. The sharp twinges had
disappeared and there has been no
recurrence Of pain. The clerks doc
tor corrected his diagnosis when asked
for an explanation Of the sudden cure
and said that what he mistook for
rheumatism was probably caused by 4
twisted ligament The kick at the cat
Strengthened out the twist and re-
moved the cause Of the trouble.

Mixed me Infants LIN.

AT Southport, England, some years
ago, births took place in two families
living In the same house. In one case
twins arrived, and a single In the 9th
er. The three children were being
washed and dressed, and the father
OF the twins coming in, the three were
placed in one bed with the idea OF
leading him to believe that his wife
had given birth to triplets. The joke,
for that was all which was intended.
succeeded to the full-for the time at
least-and then came the question Of
separating the infants and restoring
them to their respective mothers
Here a difficulty presented itself, and
the women in attendance were
shocked to find themselves unable to
say which was which. A Liverpool
paper says the identification has not
yet been satisfactorily established,
and It is case in Ih.ch even a Solo
mon might be puzzled.

According to hist'ry," replied the

Similar replies were made TO other
questions Of like nature, each be-

Finally there was reached q part Of
the battlenents where the bill on

FOR HAPPY MARRIED LIFE.
Good Manners Go Far. to Preserve
. ,-,.fr, Peace and Concord

A great many people seem to think
that the marriage ceremony absolves
them from all further eourtesies and
attentions to the person whom they
have wed. After that theg are always
In negligee, both as to manners and
clothes, when they are at home. This
Is fatal mistake. Because a woman
Is married Is no excuse for her going
untidily about the house, and telling
her husband home truths that hurt his
vanity. Because a woman is his wife
gives a man no right TO say things to
her he would not dare to say to any
other lady who possessed a big, able
bodied brother. Good manners are the
preservation OF peace and concord,
and are warranted to keep happiness
In any climate. The problem Of how
to be happy though married is really
no problem at all. No mystery should
ever have been made OF IT, II 10 mere
