How to Catch q Millionaire.

The Broadway chorus girls are try
ing to figure out why 1t is that 80
many of their lumber have caught
millionaires for husbands. Trixie
Friganza, the star of 1.-The Orchid'
said she had been studying the problem
until she felt dizzy.
ut is quite necessary, I think" she
said, "for the girl to be demurely
sweet, and all that sort of thing. Arch
ed eyebrows, a Cupid's-bow mouth,
and ianguorous eyes would help a lot"
Gertrude Barthold, q chorus girl In
1.-THE Orchid" company, said:
II think the easiest way to catch q
millionaire is to look foolish and make
him think that he Is the most import.
ant man in the whole world, I would
not let him see me in an angry mood.
I'd convince him that nothing ever
got on my nerves."
Lydia franklin, q dancer In the
same company, said:
"I'd hypnotise him. Millionaires as
a rule are very soft, and most any
clever chorus girl can have one for q
husband if she wants him."
Edna Chase, q show girl with The
Fascinating Flora" company, at the
Casino, said: =.
"I've been proposed to by a near-mil-
lIonaire, and refused him. A chorus
girl simply has to smile and smirk at
a millionaire. and he belongs to her
IL abe cares to have him. There are
millionaires of many different kinds.
1 would az soon have a Pittsburg
stogie as a Pittsburg millionaire"
Vera Pindar, mi of the bathing
girls in Fascinating Flora" said:
.'Modesty is the thing that will have
much more weight with them than
gushing chances and silly words.
I wouldn't let a millionaire give me
all sorts of presents-I'd send them
back until 1 was sure cared for him.
1 wouldn't 60 out With him unless
there was q chaperon. BY being re-
served and circumspect a girl will win
q mans heart, whether he be a mil
lionaire or not, quicker than In any
other way."-New York. World

Pointed Paragraph.

There is a little wolf and a little
rabbit in every man.
One way to be unhappy is to envy
the happiness of others.
A lucky man always points with
pride to his good judgment.
How many things there are In a
grocery store you never will call for.
If you want to oblige a friend, do
something for him his way instead OF
your own way.
A great many people see themselves
as others see them, but they don't be-
lieve what they zee.
Ever occur to you that many of your
sorrows are silly sorrows-that Is, sor-
rows that are not important?
Education is a great thing, no doubt,
but the best housekeepers didn't get
their knowledge out of books Atchi-
son Globe.

Long Distance .skee Races.

As test of skill. strength and en-
durance it would be difficult to beat
the long distance skee races in Norway
and Sweden. Of these contests the
most severe is undoubtedly the twelve
mile race over the mountains which
opens the great annual ''Snow Derby"
at Holmenkollen, about four miles
from Christiania. In this race, which
begins with a steep ascent of 400 to
800 feet, the skee lobner has to jump
clefts and ravines, to hop over fallen
tree trunks and overcome every kind
of obstacle that man can devise; to
rush down steep declivities and to
make his devious way through noun
tain forests until he reaches the goal.
triumphant, but utterly exhausted.
Considering the arduous nature of
these contests, some of the perform
ances are remarkable. Thus the win
ner of an international speed competi-
ton held at Stockholm covered the
course of forty miles at an average
speed of eight and one-half miles an
hour.

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS!
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles.

Many people never suspect their kid
neys. If suffering from lame, weak or
aching back they think that it is only a
muscular weakness; when urinary trou-
bic sets in they think it will soon correct
itself. And so it is with all the other
symptoms of kidney disorders. That is
just where the danger lies. You must
cure these troubles or they lead to dia.
betes or Brights disease. The best rem
edy to use is Doan's Kidney Pills. 1t
cures all ills which are caused by weak
or diseased kidneys.
Mrs. Annie Kohlhoff, OF $50 Cherry ST.,
