WATER As A BEVERAGE.

After a Peppermint Drop.
water is the finest drink in the
world" said the epicure in little
things, but not every one knows how
to get the most enjoyment out of
drinking 1t.
"For instance, water should never be
drunk Immediately after an apple has
been eaten, for as beverage it then
has taste more fat and insipid than
as If 1t had been taken from cold
teakettle.
"On the other hand, there is nothing
to my mind that makes water taste
more cool and refreshing (not counting
actual thirst than to eat a peppermint
drop before taking a drink of It,
"And, while peppermint stands at the
head, a drink Of water is particularly
and noticeably good after any wafer
or lozenge. Popcorn, on the other
hand, takes all the animation out Of q
subsequent swallow Of water.
Mop do bread end water go we'll to-
gether. The water takes the sweetness
out Of the bread, and the bread takes
the liveliness out of the water and
makes 1t fat beyond degree.
THE tyrant who first hit upon bread
and water as a prison fare of punish
ment knew his business.
"The enjoyment Of a drink Of water
varies, too, with what you drink It
from. You would not offer to a sick
person a drink Of water in a cup, but
| rather In a glass, the thinner the bet
ter. The fact that the water itself In
all its iimpid clearness is present to
the sense OF sight stimulates an expec-
tation that Is gratified along with the
sense Of taste.
II have frequently observed men
about to drink some other beverage
than water, and it appears to be IL
very common habit with them to re-
gard the liquid steadily for some sec
onds before swallowing It, often hold
ing it on a level with their eyes III
order to see It as clearly as possible.
Surely this lesson should not be lost
upon the man who knows that there is
no drink like water. While you are
drinking 1t enjoy 1t.

Louie Wv-'a Greedy Physioian and an
INSCRIPTIONS Surgeon.


INSCRIPTIONS Surgeon.
In 1903, when Louis XIV. beoan ~
feel the first touches OF age, his physi-
clans ordered him to be blsd once a
month That duty was of course in
trusted to Marechal. his IRISH surgeon.
There was at the time In Paris saws
the British Medical Journal. a Young
brother of the craft who conceived the
idea of making his fortune by bleed
ing the king. The enterprise was diff
cult, but he knew that the most solid
doors can often be opened with a gold
On key.
Following the advice of Iago. he put
money In his purse and sought an in
PRODUCTION to Antoine Daquin. the
kings chief physician The negotia-
ton was conducted on a, strict bust
ness footing. Daquin. who was known
to love money, was told that 10000
: crowns were deposited with a notary
who had instructions to transfer the
sum to him as soon as the surgeon
had got the Job.
1t was not an easy thing to manage.
as Marechal never left the king. One
day. however, he asked permission to
leave Versailles for three days. Da-
quin seized the opportunity to intro
duce his protege, whom he had ready
at hand for the purpose. Feeling the
kings pulse one morning, as usual he
pretended to be alarmed at it's strength
and volume and ordered the illustrious
patient to be bled forthwith. As
Marechal was away. the king hesitat-
ed, but fear soon made him yield to
his physicians proposal. The young
surgeon bled the king. and Daquin got
his money.
In the meantime A message had been
dispatched for Marechal, who was not
far OF. He returned to Versailles In
haste and was much surprised to find
that the king. whom he had left In the
best Of health. had been bled. He was
not on friendly terms with Daquin,
and he quickly grasped the situation.
He went to see the young surgeon and
forced him to disclose the whole plot.
When the king learned the truth, he
flew into a terrible rage, ordered Da-
Quin to be arrested and placed the mat
ter In the hands of the council of state.
That obsequions body, after q very
short deliberation, unanimously voted
that the physician who had trafficked
in the blood Of the king deserved death
The royal wrath. however, subsidized to
some extent, and he graciously spared
Daquin's life. but deprived him of his
ofice and exiled him from the court tc

physician did not long survive his dis
grace.-London standard

This is a most joyful surprise to all adj

from all over the country, for in addition
to the race this is to be Swee Marie's
