And having eaten very modest
luncheon this man laid down a mod.

And did the waiter shy off or sniff

something, and

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
This Servant Girl Was Evidently
Person of Resource.

AS a source of humor the Irish SER
want girl has long since fallen from
her high estate, a result probably due
to the better class of young women
from the Emerald Isle who come here
annually to help confuse the eternal
servant girl question" But now and
again one Of the old, naively ignorant
sort turns up in New York house,
hold, as was demonstrated the other
day to a caller at house on the West
Side.
The girl who responded to the bell
was asked If her mistress was at
home. To this inquiry she surprised
the caller by putting her arms behind
her back and replying in a rich
brogue, as she thrust her face toward
the caller: "Put tn tickets in me
mouth, ma'am, an I'll go an see. Me
hands is wet."-N. Y. Press.

Ruth said she intended calling there,
but she has been out all afternoon,
and / suppose, changed her mind"
There was a hint of sternness in
DR.. Wilmots voice:
Il am just from Mrs. Martin. She
is very much better. Miss Joslin has
been there all afternoon and desired
me to tell you not to expect her home
till later"
Honora shook her dead disapprov-
ingly.
THAT is just like Ruth. She re-
fused to go with me this morning. She
will never learn to do things like
other people. 1 am glad your patient
is improved, and that you gave me
the opportunity to call upon her this
morning"
For week Ruth held her self-im-
posed post of duty, vastly to the Mar
tin family's comfort and Harvey Will
mot's admiration.
Then, when strong-handed, kindly
Dorcas came from the city, the girl
still kept up her cheering visits to the
invalid.
1t was warm June evening, long
after the young doctor and Ruth had
ceased their professional visits" that
the pair met at the Martin home. This
was one of several pleasant evenings
that they had spent with the family.
AS they were leaving together, Mrs.
Martin said, laughingly:
Harvey, have always thought that
Ruth should have been given half the
honor of my restoration to health"
II shall try to persuade Miss Ruth
into verbal acceptance of the half
of my success, Mrs. Martin"
Superstitious people say that there
is witchery in the moon. Perhaps,
once out doors, its spell kept the
couple quiet, for nothing was said at
first.
Then suddenly the slender fingers
resting on DR.. Wilmot's coat sleeve
were covered closely with his right
hand, and then he began to talk earn.

They walked slower and slower, un-
TIL they were inside Ruth's gate, and
then, screened by friendly syringa
bush, they stopped altogether and
their voices ceased.
Honora, from her hammock under
the ivy canopy, saw the two figures
apparently merge into one, and over
the shoulder of Ruth's white dress she
could define black-clad, manly arm.
Realizing for the first time that her
well-built plans had tumbled to earth,
she arose and swept majestically into
the house. indignation in the very rus

But the pair under the syringa bush
were so absorbed In each other that
the indignation was forever lost on

There recently entered the service

never to leave anything old or left

gist In Your Town and Shake
Them In Bottle to
Mix This.

A well-known authority on Rheu-
matism gives the readers of large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simple and harmless
prescription, which any one can easily
prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandellon, one-half
ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
ing vegetable extraction, are harm
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, If taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case Of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, If any dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
Turing the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, ETC., some Of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores Of even
the small towns elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
will mix the prescription if asked to.
