rants crowded to overlooking with
smiling, chattering, well-dressed, rath-
err conspicuous looking parties and
when from every other hanson hand

not walk a block without meeting
some friend or acquaintance, you
might-if you do not know better-be
excused for saying to yourself, "Ah,
ah, town is filling up!" But not at all.

country places for the day, or perhaps
the week if they are sufficiently inter.

They may half-open their town
houses. but they will tell you that they
are "picnicking." They wear theiI
prettiest clothes, manners and expires
sions; they lunch and dine together;
they are the observed of all observers

British EMPLOYEES Protected.

There is a feature of the British
Workmen's Compensation act that
shows the thoroughness of the legisla-
ton secured through the efforts of the
labor members of parliament. Not
only does the act provide for the pay
ment of indemnity to mechanics and
laborers in cases of damage by acct
dent, but domestic servants are also
included in the protected classes.
According to the last census there
are GAL ,154 female domestic servants
in Great Britain. The new legal re-
sponsibilities of mistresses and other
employers of these servants may be
summarized as follows:
In the event of death resulting from
an accident the liability of the en-
ployer is the payment of three years
wages and an allowance for board, the
total sum not to exceed $3.50. For
temporary disablement, one-half the
wages and an allowance for board
must be paid during the period of in
capacity. In the event of permanent
disablement the provision is the same
as in the case of temporary disable
ment, even though the person disabled
| may be incapacitated from work for
a lifetime of many years.
The accident insurance companies
are adjusting their premium rates on
domestic servants to meet the condi
+. tions Another adjustment due to the
passage of the act will be the collec
ton of the insurance premiums from
employers instead of from servants.
The premium per employee per an
mum in the domestic class will prob
ably be $1.2O, although doubtless re
auctions will be given by some com
panies apportioned in accordance will
the surroundings of employment.

MODERN soLcMcN en- BENCH.
Ruling of South American Justice in
Wife Desertion Case.

A judicial decision which rivals
some of Sancho Panza's rulings in his
island is reported from Valparaiso, in
the correspondence of a German news
paper. The case was that of the wife
of fisherman and coastwise sailor
who was deserted by her husband
shortly before the birth of their first
child.
The woman complained to the au
thorities and the police were ordered
to keep lookout for the truant. They
got him after few months, and he
was hailed before the alcalde and con-
fronted with his wife, who carried the
baby in her arms.
The facts in the case were undenia-
BILE; the defendant did not attempt to
deny them. 1t seemed as if nothing
remained for the magistrate but to as
sess the amount of alimony.
He paused, however, and reflected
solemnly for a while. Then he asked
the young woman
What was your occupation before
| you married this MANI"
81 was servant girl, Excellency,"
she replied.
"And what used you to earn in those
days?"
"Ten pesos month, sir"
How have you supported yourself
since your husband disappeared?
"Since the birth of my boy, Excel
lency, have taken situation as a
wet nurse"
"And what may be your wages in
that position?"
Thirty pesos a month, your Honor"
"Ah so! Well, it seems to me the
merits of this case are very plain. In
becoming the husband of this young
woman the prisoner has tripled hel
capacity for earning a livelihood. He
has plainly conferred great benefit
upon her, for which it is only fitting
that he should be compensated.
therefore rule that she shall pay him
every month ten pesos by way Of hon
orarium; this still leaves her twice a.

SOME WIVES ARE DIFFERENT.
Quiet cynicism, or Good Honest Row
Which Is the Better?

Most men," said the man of expert
ence, think it must be awfully nice
to have a wife who takes things as
coolly as Dave Potter's wife takes
them; but others, more discriminat-
ing, prefer a good honest row to her
style of quiet cynicism. The way she
behaved the other day when she
found a letter in Dawes pocket from
a girl is an example of her method.
ct don't see wrote this girl, how
on earth I can ever live without you.
Dawes wife read that gush, and a
lot more just like it, without ever turn
ing hair.
"'Well' she said, quietly, that girl
is a fool If she knew you as well as
/ l do she would be wondering how or
earth she could ever live with you
"And that, in the opinion of the dis
eliminating few, cuts a whole lot
deeper than a common, everyday rum
pus."

PREPARE THIS YOURSELF.
Tells How to Make the Best Blood
Tonic at Home.

For those who have any form of
blood disorders; who want new, rich
blood and plenty of it, try this:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake well in a bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime. Any good pharmacy can
supply the ingredients at small cost.
This is the prescription which, when
made up, is called The Vegetable
Treatment; by others, the Cyclone
Blood Purifier" 1t acts gently and
certainly does wonders for some peo
pie who are sickly. weak and out OF
sorts, and is known to relieve serious
long-standing cases of rheumatism
and chronic backache quickly.

MORTALITY REPORT
CONSUMPTION AND PNEUMONIA
HEAD DEATH LIST.
Statistics Show That the Greatest
Number of Deaths From Lung
Trouble Occur in Winter.

The Bureau of Census has published
report presenting mortality statistics
for the United States for the five cal
endar years 1900 to 1904.
AS shown in the table, tuberculosis
of the lungs and pneumonia were by
far the leading causes of death. The
greatest number of deaths from lung
trouble occur during the winter
months. Colds are so prolific of lung
lected. Persons with weak lungs
should be especially careful.
A noted authority on lung trouble
advises that as soon as a cold is con-
tracted the following simple treatment
should be given. The ingredients can
be purchased from any prescription
druggist at small cost and easily pre-
pared in your own home. 1t is said to
be so effective that it will break up a
cold in twenty-four hours and cure any
cough that is durable.
Take one-half ounce Virgin Oil OF
Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glycerine
and eight ounces of good Whisky.
Shake well and take in teaspoonful
doses every four hours.
Be sure that the Virgin Oil of Pine
(Pure) is in the original half-ounce
walls, which are put up expressly for
druggists to dispense. Each vial is Sc
curely sealed in a round wooden case
with engraved wrapper, with the name
