Monday-He put me on for the first
time to-day and when he rode home On
the FL he wouldn't sit down because
he was afraid Of creasing me. Every
time he saw anything on me he busted
Il off; every time he walked past a
store he looked in the window to see
how I fitted. and every time we passed
a nice looking girl he threw his chest
out and coughed behind his hand.
Tuesday-This morning as we were
leaving the house his wife called after
him.

He stood up on the FL again to-day
when he reached the office he took the
coat off and hung it on a hanger.

home, he sat down on the FL. but as
soon as he reached the house he found
a brush and went all over me.

place more" he, told his wife. "He
gets all over everything.
ThuNday-He left me home to-day
becausG it looked like rain.

in one OF my trouser pockets. a handful
of small change in the other. a note

Saturday-This afternoon when we
came home he made such noise thai
his wife looked out of the kitchen.
"What are you doing down on the

NoBLEMAN AS PEASANT GIRL" "
Russian Disguised as Domestic Man-
 ages to Win Wealthy Widow.

ages fO :" " eaIthy " "1uO".
 A story which reads like a chapter from romance of the middle ages is being published by the local press, q New York Times Moscow letter says. The wealthy and beautiful young Bar oness UruSoff. widow of q distinguished Russian government official. took up her residence in Moscow about eighteen months ago and lived an extremely se- cluded life. Her beauty. however, at tracted attention wherever she was seen, whether in the streets or when riding or at the theater.
 All the young cavaliers of Moscow were hopelessly in love with her. The baroness. however, rejected all at tempts to obtain an introduction to her, and continued to live in perfect se- cluslon. attended only by an elderly relative. Some months ago q young peasant girl began 10 visit the residence of the baroness, offering the servants cheap articles for sale. Once she brought some old Russian porcelain. which she offered the baroness. Subse- quently the baroness used 10 buy differ ent articles from the peasant girl. who was intelligent had good manners and considerable conversational talents.
 The baroness eventually asked the girl whether she would enter her serv- ice as lady's maid. The peasant girl agreed and became the baroness maid She discharged her duties to perfection for a fortnight. and then revealed her self as a young Russian nobleman named MaXimoff, who, taking advan- tage of his fair hair and complexion, had masqueraded as domestic to break down the barriers with which the beautiful baroness had surrounded herself.
 Baroness Trusoff was so much i'm pressed by the extraordinary persever- ance which the young nobleman had revealed in coming month after month as peasant girl, then working as domestic 10 gain her favor. that she became engaged to him and the mar riage took place week or so ago. The story has just become known in society circles In Moscow.

The Luck of Left-Handedness

Of all "anti-lean" systems prescribed by physician or quack, perhaps none Is so curious as that cited by Martin Welker in an article written for the Western Reserve Historical Society on life in Central Ohio Sixty Years Ago" The story also goes to prove that in left handedness there may be an advantage unexplained by psycho- logical research. The expounder and example of the diet theory was an old settler one of large family of chii- dren, who grew up to be a very stout man, while the others were small and thin.
 The big iron pot which hung on the crane cooked the mush for the family. It was usual thing to see the chill dren. with their cups and spoons. seat ed all round the mush pot on the hearth, helping themselves to their supper.
 The old settler used to explain his plump condition in this way: When he was boy the principal living was bean porridge. When it was cooked It was set out in the pot and all the family dipped.
 He alone was left-handed. The right handed ones, dipping in their spoons, soon set the contents of the pot going round in whlrl, and the beans and small fragments of meat partook of this circular motion. But he, being left handed, thrust in his spoon, met the floating solid particles, and was able to appropriate to himself the more nourishing food. The others got the thin porridge.

 Everybody down that way bragged about 'em but Bucyrus; but pshaw! he didn't see nothin' extra about the cook In or about her.
 "One time while he was courtin' her somebody bragged about what a purty gal she was.

A LOVERS ENVY.

1 envy every flower that blows Beside the pathway where she goes, And every bird that sings to her, And every breeze that brings to her
 The fragrance of the rose. l envy every poets rhyme That moves her heart at eventime, And every tree that wears for her Its brightest bloom. and bears for her
 The fruitage of its prime. I envy every Southern night That paves her path with moonbeams
 white.
 And silvers all the leaves for her. And in their shadow weaves for her
 A dream of dear delight. I envy none whose love requires Of her a gift, task that tires; I only long to live to her, I only ask to give to her
 All that her heart desires. Henry Van Dyke, in Century.

The Breath.

The breath of a healthy person has no odor. This Is equivalent to saying that no one whose breath has habitual- ly dlsagreeable odor is in absolute health. Somewhere there is trouble, the presence of which, although not al- ways the location of It. is betrayed by the expired air
 person with bad breath Is not al- ways aware of his misfortune, or per haps one should say the misfortune of his friends, and 1t Is kindness and a duty on the part of his family to tell him. The trouble can almost always be bettered. if not entirely removed, and it is the duty of one so afflicted to place himself in the physicians hands for care.
 The cause of bad breath is often evident, but sometimes a very careful examination, weighing and rejecting one by one the different possibilities, is necessary before the seat of the trou- ble can be determined. Local troubles must be looked for and corrected. Ca tarrh of the nasal passages, ar of one or more of the cavities In the bones of the face communicating with the nose. may cause very foul breath; this can be relieved in many cases by snuffing some antseptic tluid-well dl- luted. for the nasal mucous membrane is sensitiye-through each nostril sev- eral times a day. The nasal douche, so often recommended. should be used 0nly tnder the direction of l physician.
 The mouth is often the place of ori- gin of the odor. Decayed teeth. or the decomposition of food particles al- lowed to remain between the teeth, or recedirE gums with suppuration round the edges of the teeth, may one or all affect the breath unpleasantly. The regular use of the toothbrush with an antiseptlc mouth wash will usually remedy this. There may be an accumu- latlon of fur at the back of the mouth. which gives an odor to the breath; this should be removed with d spoon or the ring in one of the handles of pair of scissors. The tOnsils may have mal- odOrous accumulations of secretion in their pits.
 Trouble In any part of the digestive tract is very likely to declare itself in the breath. Constipation, especially, is so betrayed. Il is well known that some foods, onions, for example, will scent the breath, but 1t is not so gener- ally appreciated that the eating of a yir Ieclliarly dsagreeable quality to the bItdth The emotions may have their effect, too, and the ill-tempered person or the worrier is thus an offeuse in more ways than one.
 There is seldom any excuse for per manent bad breath. for the physician can almost always discover the cause.
