they must order cream Of a special

done the day before and always costs

winter a way Of easily making her

merely added a teaspoonful Of granu-
lated sugar 10 every pint, had It Ice

NOTHING LEFT OF THE ROMANCE
Explanation That Brought Castle to
the Ground.

II Miss Jones hadn't had a keen
sense OF humor she might have cried.
But she IS now happily married and
the incident is one Of the jokes she
likes 70 tell
Miss Jones was a stenOgrapheF then.
On the same car every morning there
came downtown a young man. Maybe
he was on the same car by accident
and maybe. again, there was method
IN his car rides. But, anyhow, If
there was method he couldn't have
stared at Miss Jones any harder than
he did every day for three months. for
he always managed to get a seat in
the car opposite her.
He was a good-looking young man
and very ukeable, even if you just
looked at him. And so Miss Jones,
knowing not even his name, fell in
love with him.
But
One day he entered the car and
took a seat next to Miss Jones. For
Is minutes they rode on in silence.
Suddenly he blurted out: SAY, do
you know why I always stare at you?"
NO; have you been staring at me?"
asked Miss Jones, naively.
Yes he answered. 4 did it be-
cause you look SO much like the girl
am engaged to marry"

ANATOMY FOR THE BEGINNER.
Little Lesson Wherein Subject Is
Brought Up TO Date.

Proceeding in a southerly direction
from the torso, we have the hips, use
ful for padding. and the legs. The legs
hold up the body, and are sometimes
used in walking, but when riding in
automobiles they take up valuable
space which otherwise might be en-
ployed to better advantage.
Attached to the legs are the feet
Some varieties Of feet are cold. Some
people are born with cold feet. others
acquire cold feet, and still others have
cold feet thrust upon them.
The surface Of the body is covered
with cuticle, which either hangs in
graceful loops or is stretched tightly
from bone to bone.
On the face it is known as the com
plexion, and Is used extensively for
commercial purposes by dermatolo-
gists, painters and decorators.
Between the cuticle and the bones
are the muscles, which hold the bones
together and prevent them from fall
ing out and littering up the sidewalks
as We walk along.
Packed neatly and yet compactly in
side the body are the heart. the liver,
and the lungs; also the gall, which in
Americans is abnormally large.
These organs are used occasionally
by the people who own them, but their
real purpose is to furnish surgeons
