A Prescription of Surprises.

"Buy your wife a dozen roses
and box of candy once week
for four weeks, then report to me-
If you don't discover that life is a
real pleasure, I'll foot the bill. If
you find happiness by it, I'll dis
charge you"
This was the novel judgment of
Judge Cleland in Chicago last Fri
day against man who was on
parole for drunkenness. There were
hints of domestic trouble involved
in the case; the defendant suggested
that his lack of felicity was the
cause, rather than the effect, of in
diligence in variegated drinks.
1t was asserted that the defend
ants wife was making his life
miserable in an attempt to get his
property in her name; he testified
that she promptly annexed his pay
envelope as soon as it was put in
commission, and that if she wanted
roses and candy she could buy
them for herself
But the court couldn't see it in
that light; he pronounced the die
tum that woman needs little
surprises to make her happy and
contented. In accordance with
this new principle he decided upon
the novel penalty of patronizing
florists and confectioners.
If 1T be found that his maxim lie
constitutional, dry and dusty law
will have found some prestige oil
romance and it would surely be in
gratitude on the part of the
woman's clubs If they overlook the
merits Of this legal savant. Their
approval OF the verdict woulthe Il
course, be shared by the deale hasi
these surprises. lVoi
But will the principle be repeo
If the recipient of the good ad'd
should present his bill at the on
of the four weeks?-Butte Miftio

besides that, it pays. Fruit land in Charleston
Heights and Lewiston Orchards will pay yearly
5000 to $500 per acre, often $1,000 per acre and
occasionally as high as $1,000 per acre. Then
there is satisfaction in living on a fruit tract in

reasons may be named, closeness of neighbors,
proximity to two good towns only one to four
miles, good Schools churches telephones electric

consequent development of manufacturing and

Man Sells His Skin.

Antonio GILBERT, a coachman. pa
tient at the Brescia hospital. Milan,
Italy, so badly burned himself that
the skin began to peel off from all
parts Of his body The physicians had
despaired of saving his life. when an
other patient, named Franceschini, q
stout man. having more skin that he
required for his personal use, offered
TO sell the coachman some. A bargain
was struck for 500 lire, which Gilberti
has promised to pay on the Install
ment plan as soon as he is well
enough to work In the meantime
Franceschini is being literally fayed
alive, and the removed portions Of the
epidermis are being transferred to Gil
berti's body. The physicians are quite
as much occupied in preventing the
men from quarreling as they are with
the operation.

Square Styles Are Considered Best
Taste For Notes.

Taste For Notes.
Letter paper is for the most part
square, that size being considered the
best taste for notes, and are unusually
diminutiye even for the use Of young
sters, for the envelopes are only about
one and half inches squares, while
the sheets are q trife less than three
inches square, or just large enough to
TT smoothly in the envelope after be
ing folded once The flaps on these
envelopes are long and pointed, reach
ing almost TO the bottom.
A few styles of the notified note pa
pers have oblong envelopes, with flaps
in which there are two or three curved
scalops. These are decidedly pretty
and VIII probably be more used by lit
tie girls than the square shapes, though
the latter have a smarter appearance.
The envelopes are about two inches
long and an inch wide while the
sheets that fold once are a bit less
than four inches long and tri1e IN
der two inches in width.

est youngsters is much larger than the
novelty varieties, and the pictures OF
little girls skipping rope or Of a boy
flying a kite are placed near the top,
Ike monographs, so that they will be
apart and distinct from the writing
on the body Of the sheet and will ia
this way show to advantage on q
larger piece Of paper where the effect
would be lost on a small one.
These pictures in delft blue, vivid
pink. green, bright red, attract even
small children, and some Of those that
Illustrate Mother Goose rhymes bring
screams of delight from the little boys
and girls who recognize Little Boy
Blue or little Miss Muffet, etc. Most
of these are of white paper, SO that
the decorations will show up, though
few are in light pastel shades, on
which the vivid colors make a pretty
contrast.

BANGLES IN FAVOR AGAIN.

Seen Dangling on the Wrists of
Pretty Girls.
Back comes the bangle. Really, it
was too dainty an ornament to stay out
forever What rage there was for
bangles of every sort twenty years ago!
Year by year 1t died away until only
the uniformed were seen with them.
But the bangle has come backbone in
an infinite variety of forms from rarest
of gold dollars and quarter eagles to
still rarer three cent pieces and half
dimes and abundant dimes and quar-
tiers. All the old fancies have returned
with 1.-THE monogram, the interIaced
Initials, the letters cut out in fligree,
the frosting, chasing and other adorn-
ment. Soon one may see schoolgirls
wrists besprinkled with bangles as of
yore, while every graceful motion
shakes forth a ripping Jingle faint as
the peal of fairy bells. The fashion is
old as the Oldest hills. 1t harks back to
the Arabian Nights, when every dark
eyed belle was hung with golden Sc
quins from head to foot Further back
it goes to days when the heavy coins
Of Rome and Athens decked slave and
free woman alike Doubtless Cleopatra
raised bangled wrist in greeting to
Antony BelshazZar probably had his
own brand Of bangles for distribution
among the beauties of his court. and
it's on record in the annals of fashion
that Diana of the Ephesians fairly
glittered with the pretty baubles. Sue
cess to the bangle Long may it wave
from the wrists Of the fair for the JOY
of the brave!
