TOO MUCH FOR MRS. DRUMMoNp.
Ingratltude of User of Telephone Was
the Last Straw.

When the Drummonds put in tele-
phone they were lavish in their offers
Of hospitality to the neighbors. Its
the unlimited kind" said little Mrs
Drummond, proudly, 80 1t doesn't
make bit Of difference how long or
how often it's used"
AS time went on, Mr.. Drummond no
ticed that when he returned to his
pretty suburban home at night his
wife's face often wore tired and har-
raised expression. At last one night
she seemed SO depressed at the din
ner table that Mr.. Drummond felt the
time had come for him to speak.
I'm sure it's that telephone that's
at the bottom of your trouble" he
said, grimly, in the midst Of his awk-
ward attempt at comfort. Come on,
you might as well tell me about II"
II haven't minded the Lawtons dis
cussing all their diseases with the
doctor over 1t, because they have low
voices" said Mrs. Drummond sadly,
land I've tried not to listen when Mrs.
Gray ordered her groceries and pro-
visions and haggled over the prices.
ut wasn't pleasant to have Miss
Howard scold her dressmaker, and
then have the dressmaker call up our
number next day and screech that I'M
til her last bill was paid Miss Howard
would have no new gown.
None Of those things were pleas
ant but l didn't say anything" fal
tered Mrs. Drummond. But day be-
fore yesterday Mrs. Lombard came In
while was out. Lena told me when
got home that Mrs. Lombard was
here telephoning a long time. And
to-day some lady In town called up our
number and said, Kindly tell Mrs.
Lombard that Miss Keith regrets that
after all she will be unable to go to
Mrs. Lombard's tea on Saturday
Horace, she's ordered all the things
and invited all the people over our
wire, and never asked me at alll"--

Her linn.

The old generation OF Galloway
lairds were a primitive and hospita-
bic race, but their conyiviality some
times led to awkward occurrences In
former days, when roads were bad and
wheeled vehicles almost unknown, an
old laird was returning from supper
party with his lady mounted behind
him on horseback. On crossing the
river Urr at a ford at point where it
joins the sea the old lady dropped of,
but was not missed until her husband
reached his door, when, OF course, there
was an Immediate search made. The
party who were dispatched in quest
OF her arrived Just In time to find her
demonstrating with the advancing tide,
which trickled into her mouth, in these
words: "No anither drap. neither het
nor cauld."-London Tt-Bits.

This is picturesque description Of the
injury which may come to us from
fine houses too closely confined to keep
out the fresh air and too heavily cur

important as air. But 1t Is not at all
necessary to have our fine houses un-
healthy, and 1t requires only intslli-
gence and thoughtfulness to render q
brick house as good promoter Of
health as a cabin. Fresh air will come
into well ventilated modern houses as
well as through the open cracks Of a
house of reeds and sunlight through q
