some touch of originality SO that she
will be able to know who she was
about to become at the time the pic
ture was taken.
The ideal picture desired by the wo-
man about to embark on the sea OF
matrimony should have a youthful
ness, an uncertainty, a girlishness
about the figure and face that would
not be there had she waited for two
or three weeks after the ceremony:
dressed in the same clothes. and gone
to the photographer to have the pic
ture taken.
1t is q somewhat curious fact that
woman's face changes quickly after
her marriage. She may retain her
beauty. may become even more bean-
tiful, but a certain girlishness goes
quickly and is replaced by matronly
look, that though it may be bewitch-
ing, is not the right expression for a
bridal photograph.
The fact that the bridal bouquet, an
essential part of the makeup, will not
keep in good condition for more than
twenty-four hours is another good
reason for having the picture taken
just before the ceremony
Moreover, there are likely to be
other little differences in the arrang-
ing of the hair, for instance, or some
other little detail that cannot be repro
duced exactly as it was on the all
important day.
And finally there is sentiment
about being pictured as bride, ex-
actly what the picture purports to
show, that will keep photographers
busy in the next thirty days.
Photographers report many anus
ing experiences in this kind of work.
The man selected to do the picture
of Miss Alice Roosevelt went to the
White House the afternoon before.
Miss Roosevelt had wanted to wait
until a short time before the cere-
mony. but owing to the expectation of

Do what you want to do.
Eat what you want to eat,

: Eat what you want to eat,
, Sleep when you want to sleep.
Rest when you want to rest.
Work. when you want to work.
Get up when you want to get up and

These are just a few Of the delights
Of those who take the tranquility cure.
The tranquility cure can be taken
without spending much money. The
society woman who takes expensive
apartments in a fashionable hotel, hir-
ing rooms all around her in order that
she may not be disturbed by her neigh
bors, finds the tranquility cure costly
one. But it can be done none the less.
There is Boston authoress who in
variable comes to New York, the city
Of noises, the town that is never fin
ished, to take her tranquility cure.
Once year she goes to an old-fash-
toned hotel on Broadway, engages four
rooms and begins to rest. Her "suite''
consists of her own room, which is the
room in which she takes her tranquil
ity cure, and the rooms on each side
Of her. She also engages the room
overhead in order that there shall be
no noise at all in her neighborhood

this is the woman who should avoid
green and it's jealous tendencies.
green makes one imaginative; it
makes one superstitious; it makes
one envious of others; it excites the
mind to poisonous things. Only a
very healthy, sensible person can wear
b green or surround herself with green.
The tranquility cure is taken in a
white room fitted out with blue. This
makes one exceedingly quiet and in
clined to be rested. It paves the way
for tranquil thoughts.
The woman who takes the tranquil.
fty cure must give her mind food She
must read; she must think, she must
sleep she must entertain herself with
things that are of the world, but must
rot let herself get nervous
Learning to think of nothing at all
is part of the cure for a nervous
mind. 1t is really only a matter of
practice, this trick of thinking of moth
ing at all. The Hindoo will tell you
that it is hypnotism of the mind. 1t

When Animals Weep.


Animals are said to weep from va
rious causes. Grief at the loss OF
young ones and mate makes the dog,
horse, elephant, rat, bear, deer, mon
key, donkey mule, cattle, camel and
giraffe shed tears. -.
Sobbing has been proved in the par-
rot. though this may me minicry. The
stag at bay and the Gagged rat have
been seen to weep, while monkeys
have wept when pitied or from terror.
The elephant has wept at the loss
of its liberty, and in: some cases also
from vexation., The dread of punish
ment: has caused captiaye chimpan-
zees and other apes to- weep. sssS$ i + :: s,

is easily learned, but it does take
practice to make perfect.
In the tranquility cure the mind
must be well fed. The woman who
tries to get along without eating will
starve her brain as well as her body.
The long fasters become very nervous.
The diet should be hearty and nour-
ishing but not too heavy. Sweets in
excess are as bad as meat in excess.
The meals should be rather light and
limited to two or three dishes. :.
Doing just as you want to do is part
of the tranquility cure. In the world
there are few people who do just as
they want to do. There are always
others who must be considered. But
in taking the tranquility cure it is a
rule that you must do just as you
please.

"Gr-r-r-r-r-h," Gurqled Through the
Referees Mouth and Nose.

sounds Of snoring gurgled, rumbled
and exploded from the velvet couch,
while the eyelids Of the referee rested
peacefully on his tired eyes.
You wake him up" suggested the
plaintiffs attorney to the defendants

| Not much. don't know how he is
when he wakes up. If he is cross and
realizes that it was l who awakened
him he may decide against me- You
wake him up
But the attorney for the plaintiff
| also declined the task, as the same
damage obviously would threaten him.
There was nothing for them to do
but wait for the referee to wake up:
And they waited. An hour passed
Everybody grew more and more rest
less, remembered other engagements
and stole out to the telephone to-
break them.
The referees partner had gone for
| the day. No one else dared waken
him, the stenographer informed the
| attorneys. A peace and quiet like
that of a country churchyard settled
down upon that section of Wall street
on that particular day. No one was
moving safe, no newsboy wandered
up and down the street shouting
| 'Wuxtra!" All the working men on
the building being erected next door
seemed to have quit. No sound, in
fact, disturbed the general and I'M
wonted calm until the attorney for the
plaintiff, looking at his watch and
then glancing at the clock to verify
his watch, exclaimed:
Good heavens! Five O'clock
! There was cessation of the CUR
Cling sounds from the couch and the,
referee sat up. His face was flushed
and he looked about the room in some
confusion. Then his gaze encountered
the clock. Instantly he frowned.
Come, come, gentlemen" he said:
II told you we couldn't go on after
4:30 to-day. It is now five This case
is adjourned until week from to-day,
same time and place."

Indian Sign Language.


When an Indian paints his cheeks
in scarlet lines and daubs a yellow
square on his forehead the world
knows that he is in love.
When he covers his face with zig
gag black lines upon an ochre base il

ashamed to say ito get just as
skated as he possibly can.
When red circles are on each cheek
bone and rectangle of blue is on the
forehead the young brave is going out
to steal a pale-face horse.
When he paints white rings around
his eyes he is running for Office, he is
a candidate for medicine man or coun
cillor, and the white rings signify that
he ought to be elected because he has
the wisdom of the owl.

Ranchers in the vicinity of the

'riads of toads which have covered the
fields and roads in that section for
weeks past have begun to migrate
overland toward the ocean and can
be seen by hundreds hopping across,

The ponds and sloughs in which

There is law office on Wall street
which is most luxuriously fitted up,
even to velvet divans, sofa cushions
and other things calculated to produce
q rich and restful effect. The occu-
pant of this Office is an elderly man.,
and because of his long practice and
nigh standing as a lawyer he is fire.
luently appointed referee in those
cases which, because of the over
crowded court calendar, are tried out
of court
He had one case before him one
afternoon which was very dry, unin-
teresting and technical, and in which
the opposing lawyers made long and:
windy arguments. At the beginning
d the argument the referee, knowing
mat 1t was apt to be lengthy one,
stretched himself out in a semi-reclin-
ing position on the velvet couch and
nodded his head occasionally when ar
5uments seemed to be especially ad-
dressed to him.
When the attorney for the plaintiff
aad finished, the attorney for the de-
| tendant arose and began to speak. His,
argument was Of such bitter and
caustic character that his opponent
was quickly on his feet answering
back. Finally they got themselves,
into such tangle that nothing but a.
decision of the referee could STRAIGHT

DEAR OLD NORTH CAROLINA.
BY HENRY t. BRADLEY.

I've a feeling in my breast,
For North Carolina.
1t has always fingered there,
North Carolina.
AND when / am far away.
/ dream Of her by night. ny day.
For | can not stay away
From North Carolina.
You may talk about your prosperous
States and towns.
But dear old North Carolina cant be
dowEed.
You car notice all the time,
All the strangers come to dine
From this lear old State to leave
None seem Inclined.
North Carolina may not have
What some other States have;
But her people, noble, patriotic, brave,
Can not stoop to lowly bluffs
Nor her flag trail in the dust,
Nor her muscles, ploWs and shovels
come to rust.
North Cardinals SON are honest sons
of toll.
and her daughters noble, generous,
true,
Not one bane does ain her name
Within her large extensive plains
You are as welcome az the rain,
To North Carolina.
North Carolina boasts no mighty city.
With its hundred thousands or its
millions,
Nor is her fair cheeks kissed
By the dreaded anarchist,
Nor the socialistic clan
On her domain.
You must obey the law,
In North Carolina;
Or give the reason why.
In North Carolina.
You can not bully Governor Glenn,
Or you'll have a mighty den
OF the boys who wear the blue
In North Carolina.
Long may her noble ship of state
roll on
Guided as she is by Glenn's strong
arm,
And when earth's tolls here are done,
There'u come TO her noble sons
A summons from on high,
To North Carolina.
