POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Vanity i'll a woman is bad enough,
but conCeit in man is worse.
You can't tell anything about man
by his looks. Like minCe pies, some
of them can look very innocent.
If you can't have your way. take
consolation from the fact that every
man encounters his stone wall.
When parents are old and poor and
become charge to their children the
children often act like all persons act
who have been paid in advance.
How pro6igate we are with the hours
of rest when it is bedtime and how
we haggle over the flying minutes
when it is time to get up in the morn
ing.
Mark this in favor OF father: The
woman who is charging things to IA
Their at a dry goods store buys more
freely and with less worry than the
timid woman who charges to her hus-
band.-Atchison Globe.

Painting under glass may now be
preserved Indefinitely. Had the men of
old known this the pictures of Apelles
might still live in the first freshness Of
their colors, and the work of Raphael
and Michael Angelo would look today
as it looked when it left the painters
hands. The method of preservation is
simple. The canvas Is placed in a
vacuum. 1t is preserved, like fruit. 1t
is sealed up from all the destructive in
fluences of the atmosphere. Since
metal figures in the operation the can
vas might indeed be said to be canned.
There is no reason why paintings kept
in this manner in a vacuum should not
endure indefinitely.

the crude carbolic acid. Had it been
purified instead of crude Mrs. McCau-
ley would surely have died in d sho. :
time, and the effects of the crude co..
rosive would have been a great deal
more vital too, had it not been for the
immediate attention of the members
of the family and the calling of phs-
sicians as soon as possible. She took
two teaspoonfulls before she noticed
her mistake.
