Arc Women's Watches lnferior7

~Yes, madam" said the jeweler. showing watches to woman custom ar, "this is a sixteen point action, the best that is ever put in lady's watch" "
 Don't you put just as good works in . lady's watch as in gentleman'sT asked the woman.
 "Why, no. uot at all, madam. Ia dies do not ueed such good watch. Most always they wind up their watch once in awbile. and then they let it be for a week or two without using 1t This Is as good as any lady needs"
 The woman explained that she was . business woman and just as depend. ent on trains and boats as a man, but the jeweler remained unmoved in the conviction that sixteen point was all any woman needed.-San Francisco Call

Toothplo,a

Toothp.cks were in common use h Ancient Rome. Sometimes they were made of quills. but preferably of the wood Of the nastic or lentisk tree whose astrinsent and aromatic gum <. known to modern dentistry. Martial's spigrams frequently mention the den ascalpium. or toothpick. and recon mend the wooden kind above the ou!l The toothplek was taken to England by travellers from Italy and France.
 AS Mares says, The using of 1t il public was l,ng deemed an affectet! mark of gentility." Shakespeare takes hls view when he makes one of the characters in King John remark.
 Now, your traveller

 And when my knightly stomach is s,f-

 Why, then I suck my teeth and catechtse My picked man of countries.
 The most fantastic use to which the toothplck has ever been put was the Ixteenth and seventeenth century fash. lon of wearing 1t in the hat as a tro phy or an ornament

lf the Tros FaIis, What of the Ivy7
 We hear great deal about tho mod, sen girl developing mann!shness. inde. poudence and losing her femin!nity. 4 great many people arc much alarmed because girls are not trained, as for merly, in womanly gentieness. It il . beautiful figure of speech to describe the feminine character as the ivy which ciings to tho masculine oak for support and in return covers and beau dies It's hideous knots and scars.
 But If the oak falls what becomes of the ivy7
 There Is too much of thls Ivy clinging and beautifying idea In training girls. They should be taught that it is just as necessary to be independent. to be self supporting, as to be able to cling Rnd beautify. In other words. they ought to be able to stand alone if the tree falls and not go down with it, Success Magazine.

Most gleaners of the wonderful con. hder the leaning tower of Pisa to be something unique In architecture. This is an error, however, for there are two others In Italy and several In other European cities. The two at Bologna are the most remarkable One of them h 82l feet in height and leans over six and half feet from the pelpendic- ular, and the other Is 161 feet high and has "a lean" Of over nine feet The oldest of these two remarkable structures was built in the year 1110.

COFFEE DRINKING
A Doctor Says il Weakens the Heart.

In my opinion" says a well-known
German physician, mo one can truth
fully say that coffee agrees with him.
as it has long since been proven that
caneine, contained in coffee, is an in
furious, poisonous substance which
weakens and degenerates the heart
muscles.
For this reason the regular use OF
coffee, soon or late. causes a condition
of undenourishment. which leads to
various kinds OF organic disease.
Convinced of this fact I have often
sought for some healthful beverage Il
use instead Of coffee At last 1 found
the thing desired in Postum Having
had occasion TO forbid people using
coffee, whose hearts were affected. ]
have recommended Postum as a bev-
erage, since il is free from all injurious
Tor exciting substances. I know this
from results in my own family, and
among patients.
Hundreds of persons who now use
Postum in place Of coffee, are greatly
benefited thereby" There's a Reason. p
