I Love You.

A Danish paper compares "I love you" in many languages. Here are some of them-the Danish paper Is our only authority for their correctness. The Chinaman says, "Uo ngai nj" the Armenian, "Ge sirem ez hez;" the Ara bian, very shortly. "Nehabeeck;" the Egyptian, similarly, "N'achkeb;" the Turk, "Slsi sevejorum," and the Hin doc, Main tym ko pijar karyn." But overwhelming is the declaration of love of an Eskimo, who tries to win the cho- sen one by the pleasing sound of the dainty little word: "Unlvifgssaerntd. luinalerfimajungnarsigujak."

The fact that eight of the eleven members of the new French cabinet are or have been journalists demonstrates anew the importance of this profession In France. It Is the avenue to dis tinction, as the bar Is in England and the United States. The personal ele- ment in the French journals Is of course the reason. The leading articles are signed, and man may make a rep utation through them in a few weeks, whereas the English or American jour- aalist may write thousands of brilliant leaders and remain unknown. Which of the two systems is the better Is a difficult question to decide. although many hold that the anonymous system is the more likely to secure a solid, well-balanced and responsible press.

Novelists, some of whom may never have owned a dress coat, used to be fond of drawing, in their tales, a sharp social distinction between persons who "dressed for dinner" and those who did not. Now the editor of a British medical journal has been discussing and commenting from hygienic point of view the habit of dressing for din ner. Every one knows that change of clothing Is often refreshing. The Eng fish editor believes that the effect Is physical as well as mental, or physical through the mental stimulus, and ad- vises that even the hard-working clerk, the shopkeeper and the laboring man cast off their workaday clothes and put on clean clothing for the even- ing meal, when the toll of the day Is over.

The Doctor Away from Home whe1
Most Needed,

People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family physi-
clan is away from home when they most
need his services. Diseases like cramp,
collie and cholera morbus require prompt
treatment, and in many instances are
fatal before medicine can be procured
or a physician summoned. The right
way is to keep at hand a bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. No physician car prescribe Z
better medicine for these diseases. By
having it in the house you escape much
pain and suffering and all risk. Buy it
now; it may save life. For sale by N. e.
