is said to be prime favorite.
The Alexandra salad Is secured IN
only two or three of the most ex.
elusive hotels in town. but may easily

together after the following manner:
Take very hard head of lettuce for
each person, remove all the outer
leaves, then cut out the center of the
heart, making hollow as big around
az a 50-cent piece. Put into this hol.
low first layer of celery, cut in
pieces not over an inch in length and
shredded as fine as chrysanthemum
petals. On this lightly pile tiny sec.
tons of grapefruit pulp until the hol.
low Is filled. On the top place four
fresh ox-heart cherries, first remov.

a light French salad dressing made
of oil, vinegar, salt and pepper prop

Foolhardy Fame.

An Italian, whose name Is of no con.
sequence, has climbed to the summit
Of one Of the three highest peaks OF
the Mont Blanc range, called the
Dame Anglaises. This peak Is 11.40C
feet high. and the last 1000 feet Of
the ascent was over q smooth and
practically perpendicular rock. 1t re
Quired u hours to make 1t. and when
done the man OF misdirected energy
and enterprise actually thought he had
achieved fame. But, after all, what
sort Of fame Is It? The man had risk.
ed his life to accomplish, what? To
be able to say he had climbed to q
spot on the mountains that no other
person ever did 1t is the sort Of fame
gained by the youth who fred the
Ephesian dome. It will be remember
ed as an act from which no useful
consequences can flow and in which
life was recklessly imperiled in order
that a fool might cry out, IT did it,
In the feat there was no contribution
to science, to morals or to the gener'
al knowledge Of the world.

Compass. Points and Health.

A quaint theory Is that OF French
mystic, who holds that the four
points OF the compass have an infiu.
ence on human health and well-being.
Travelling west, asserts this author
ity, induces melancholy; travelling
eastward brings cheerfulness; south.
ward, languor and irritability; and
northward, calmness. II is a question
of electrical currents, and the infiu.
ence Is felt not only when travelling,
but also when at home. The best pos.
ture for working Is to face either
north or east. In these positions you
receive positive waves of electricity,
the negative currents coming from
the other two points, south and west.
Even the sleep Is improved, 1t seems,
II the foot OF the bed be turned to the
north or east. To sleep in the contrary
position induces nightmare and gen
eral uneasiness.

On Tuesday morning about 5 80

the range in the kitchen totally de-
stroyed the Stockton Hotel at Glenns

that no hotel shall long endure on
that site, as the old Stockton r. otel
was burned to the ground in 1908.
Mrs. M. I. Sargent, a daugh of
w. NJ. Stockton, was managing the
house, and loss, including the fur
nishings, is estimated at SIS, ZOO,
with insurance of SO, 200. Lucki y
the fire was discoy cred in time to
allow all the guests to escape. AS
the hotel contained forty rouns,
occupied mostly by resident guests.
the loss of room will be keenly
felt until another can be erected.
