WE'LL, WHAT ABOUT THESE DOCTORS r
the names of two of the greatest ply
sicians in the world, and you connect
them with corn cures and cough sir
ups! Woman, can't your mind get be-
yond the buying of two dollar corset
for dollar and forty cents at some
bargain sale:"
well, what about these great doc
tors?"
1T will be waste of breath to tell
you, but just now they are engaged in
controversy that l can perhaps help
settle. 1t occurred to me this morning
that | could. and have been thinking
about it al day If l should prove the
means OF 50 doing it would make me
famous in day
And just what is this question, Mr..
Bowser: Even if do attend bargain
sales perhaps my opinion on other
subjects is worth something"
Il will state the case, but | warn
you in advance that l won't stand
for any of your sarcasms. If you can't
treat it seriously you needn't answer
course. All creation has to sleep.
You have sometimes realized the fact
that you were dropping off to sleep
Now, then, what part of the human
being goes to sleep first? Is it the
feet, the BRAIN, the legs, arms, eyes
or what? There is the question in a
nutshell. DR.. Bull says one thing and
DR.. Delos another, and between them
they have got a million people interest

Assurance Equal to Ignorance.
Il simply contend that sleep is what
may be called a natural anaesthetic,
and that it affects the brain first. |
don't think there can be any question
about that"
Your assurance Is equal to your
ignorance. You stand in opposition to
a thousand wise men. That's just like
a woman. She'll blurt out an opinion
on any subject as glibly as Il Parrot
and with as little sense to back it"
"And how about your opinion?" ask
ed Mrs. Bowser.
Il have none at present. | am going

my one has done that to settle this
controversy"
"You will probably get up with a
cold in your head after an hour or so. f"
"That will be entirely my affair, Mrs.
Bowser. Will you now escort that
yaller eyed cat downstairs and throw
him out and give him to understand
that the first meow he utters from the
back fence will be the signal for his
death?"
"If you wake up with your head all
stuffed up, don't blame me-" she an
swered as she drove the cat before her

dignity.

FLEET TO LEAVE ON TIME.
'Tqghting Bob Evans Denies Report
 of Probable Delay.

Washington, Nov. 27.-"You can bet your North American life that the bat tleship fleet will sail from Hampton Roads on it's voyage to the Pacific on the morning of December IS. The yes sells will get under way just as soon as I receive the preaident's orders to set sail.''
 In this characteristic ma11e@ Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans answered the reports that there would be delay in the departure of the fleet. It is pos- sible that all the ships may not be assembled at Hampton Roads Decem- Der 8, but there Is no doubt in the ad- mirals mind that they all will be on hand when the sailing order is given December 16
 At the bureau of navigation it is said that there possibly may be a trifling delay in the arrival at Hampton Roads of the battleships Minnesota, Kentucky and Virginia, which yet have to be docked and their sea valves over hauled, but it will be insignificant and the ships will be ready to sail on the 16th.
 Admiral Evans will be the guest of President Roosevelt at dinner at the White House tomorrow night.

FIRE AT HOSPITAL FOR INSANE.
Outbreak fin Nurses Building at
 Morris Plains.

Morris Plains.
 Morristown, N J., Nov. 27.--A fire which broke out on the top floor of the house occupied by the female nurses employed in the Morris Plains State Insane asylum, just before mid night last night created considerable excitement in the hospital proper among some of the inmates there Luckily most of the inmates were in bed at the time, and so quietly did the firemen labor that they were not aroused. In the wards and rooms facing the fire, however, the attend ants had their hands full trying to quiet the patients and keep them from fleeing from the building.
 The nurses house Is about 500 feet away from the main building. When the fire broke out, some of the nurses had gone to bed. They were aroused when the fire was first discovered, and had time to take their belongings out before the fire got headway All the women escaped.
 The burned building was built about a year ago, and cost $20,000. It was insured for $15,000. The building will be repaired as soon as possible.

cures by the Cuticura Remedies, but
had no confidence in them as I had
tried SO many remedies. and they all
had failed to cure me. had seen
three doctors, but got no relief. Final
ly my husband said that We would
try the Cuticura Remedies. so we got

Cuticura Ointment, and two bottles
Of Cuticura Resolvent Pills. OF course
/ keep Cuticura Soap all the time for
my hands. but the one cake Of Soap

Monks FIRST PLAYED DoMlNoE.
Origin 81 Game That 10 Popular the
World Over.

With regard to the game Of DOM
inoes there Is very interesting
story connected with It's origin. II
runs thus: There were two monks
who had been committed to the PEN
atty Of long seclusion and we're con.
demned to keep absolute silence. To
relieve the monotony they played .
game by showing each other small
nat stones marked with black dots.
BY . MISUNDERSTOOD arrangement,
the monk whose hand was used at
first informed the other player BY
repeating In an undertone the first
line Of the vesper hymn, "Cantate
Domino" (Sing unto the Lord). In
time the monks completed the set Of
stones and formulated the rules Of
the game, 30 that by the time they
were free to come out from their pun
ishment they had found the game so
interesting that on teaching 1t to the
other members of the monastery It
became favorite and lawful pastime.
It soon became popular al through
Italy and from there extended to the
whole world. The first line Of the YES.
per hymn which the monks had used
as sfgaal was reduced to the word
domino and the name has stuck to tho
game ever since.
