Animals as Weather Prophets,


Before rainstorm a cat nearly al
ways washes its face. Why? Some
claim that the atmosphere excites the
electricity in the cats fur, and to over
come the tingling sensation she sets to
washing herself
Or If there is no cat in the house you
may possess parrot. If the bird sits
down and makes a sort of kissing
noise, look out for rain in the night.
One need seldom fear getting wet In
the country. Horses, cows. sheep,
hogs, dogs-all evince certain peculiar
tiles before storm. Dogs bury bones;
horses fidget and neigh; cows lie down;
hogs grunt.
Some day you may walk into field
and see flock Of sheep in a corner, all
with their backs turned to the north
west. If you wait long enough you
will feel wind blow up from that di.

glance OF her eyes. At any rate, a sud-

moment he stood there blinded, dazed.
Then his customary coolness came to
his aid. 1t was his turn to carry
things with a high hand, and he must
make the most of it.
His eyes challenged hers as he said: !:

Jack was quite shocked. "She did
not steal me-" he protested. II was
lonely, and was waiting for you in
the hall, and she asked me to come in.
and came, and we've had beautiful
time" he added In joyous outburst.
'That's just as bad" Hastings an
swered severely. "You mean to say
that she enticed you in here"
Jack was speechless. The girl had
said nothing.
'You might at least invite me to sit
down since you are so comfortable" !"
Hastings went on, "and let me join in
the beautiful time. though don't
know, on second thought, that it isn't
pleasanter standing. It is so unusual
to see you at my feet.''
Miss Trevor started to scramble up,
but two strong hands lifted her gently
into big chair. 1t was new expert
ence to her to be either commanded OF
helped. But she did not seem to mind
it nor to notice that he was still hold
ing her hands. Both had forgotten

GROUP Of delegates to the con-

Locomotive Engineers sat in
the rotunda at the Palmer
House, in Chicago, telling stories.
Among them was grizzled. oldish
man from the Old Colony who had a
curious red scar bending around from
his forehead across his right temple
and down his right cheek, with al
most as regular curve as If it had
been marked there with a compass.
The redness Of its color indicated that
the mark had been inflicted Tot very
long ago.
The man who wore the scar had TAX
en- no part in the conversation. Pres
emily one Of the western delegates said
to him:
Come, Grandpa Hawkins, you ought
to have a story to tell. How did you
get that scar, now?"
The Old Colony man colored little
and looked uneasy.
"You fellows can tell stories," he
said, land l can't. But l will say
this: I was never thankful for hard
blow in the face but once. and that
was when got this scar"
Then he subsidized into silence, appar-
emily supposing that there was moth
ing more to say. OF course the engi-
neers about him raised loud demand
for the rest Of the story. which SEEM

Under this pressure he went on. lit

The Lost Repeater.

When monsieur-the first monsieur
at the court of Louis XIV.-discovered
at his levee that his watch had been
stolen, presumably by one of his val
cts, he finished dressing hastily and,
addressing them all, said: "Gentlemen,
the watch strikes. Let us separate as
quickly as we can" What tact and
finish were here!
The spirit Of monsieur was admira-
bly, caught by the French gentleman
of the time who, attacked by robbers

observed, "Sirs. you have opened very

MEETS DEATH AS
BURNING TORCH
AGED WOMAN FATALLY BURNED
AT HOME
RAN THROUGH STREETS WITH
CLOTHING AFLAME
Husband Was Away from Home and
the Neighbors Did Not Hear
Her Cries for
Help

Mrs. Martha Ellen Donaldson, 60
years old, of 1861 West Thirty-siXth
street, was fatally burned while alone
in her home yesterday morning. She
died from the effects of her burns at
6:30 o'clock last night.
While standing in front of an old
fashioned fireplace the clothing of the
aged woman caught fire. She Yanly
strove to eXtinguish the flames, aud
finally, driven frantic by the eXcruCiat-
ing pain, rushed into the yard i'm the
rear Of her home and called for help,
but her piteous appeals We're not heard
by neighbors.
She then ran, a flaming torch of fire,
to the home of her stcp-daughter Mrs.
J.. 5. Shapland, next door and, as she
neared the house her aged husband,
who had been at his daughters home,
came to the door and the efforts of
the husband and son-in-law to put out
the flames We're successful, after five
minutes work.
Mrs. Donaldson had been burned to
such an extent that it was realized
that death was inevitable and only a
matter of a few hours. BY the time
she reached her step-daughters home
nearly every stitch of her clothing had
been burned and her body scared from
head to foot and encompassed by
flames.
The grief of her husband was pa
thetic as he placed blankets about the
body Of his wife.
why did I leave her alone?" he
moaned continually, but despite his
grief he worked strenuously to al
leviate the sufferings of the woman.
The body was removed to the under
taking parlOrs of Bresee Bros, and
funeral arrangements We're not made
last night Besides her husband, Lea
vens II. Donaldson. the woman is sur
vived by her son, r. u. Carter of the

ABdd Breath Boon

Her cheeks were aglow like roses in bloom,
Her lips red as cherries thrice over;
Her teeth like the pearl;
Her hair tangled curl;
Her breath like sweet blowing clover.
So much for poetry. But STUART'S
CHARCOAL LOZENGES ARE prose
as well. They are practical and for
everyday use and they will make any
ones breath just as sweet and whole
some as the Girls breath in the song.
And what is nicer than a sweet,
clean breath and what more offensive
than bad, foul one? Every one tries
to get rid Of it themselves and tolerate
it in their friends, butt is awfully
trying and puts friendship and sentl-
mcnL to a severe test.
A bad breath is a sort of unspoken
imputation on cleanliness you cant
get away from ii and can't explain.
You can take foolish little remedies to
disguise it for an hour or 50; but this
is suggestive; your breath is unnatural
and your friends wonder why.
Bad breath comes once in while
from decayed teeth, but there is a
quick and effectual remedy for this
the dentist. 1t comes as q rule 80
times out Of 100 from a bad stomach,
Foods gone wrong; digestion impaired;
assimilation imperfect; nutrition mis-
directed and a consequent misunder-
standing all around
And meanwhile a bad condition OF
things is inaugurated. There is hatu-
lence, sour stomach, and with these
two past masters of evil Pandora's box
is opened and a tribe of troubles let
loose, any one Of which might appal.
With all manner of chemical
changes taking place in the stomach
by fermentation-whic should nOt-is
it any wonder that some startling and
disagreeable results are evolved? Bad
Breath is conspicuous among them, /
because always in evidence. No use |
to doctor this or disguise it. 1t is an
innocent sufferer
GO STRAIGHT TO THE CAUSE |
The STOMACH. Put that in order and |
the Breath will take care of itself. |
Charcoal has been a remedy for disOr- |
dered stomachs for centuries. 1t is |
one "cure" that is almost as "old as
the hills"
Summing up, charcoal in it's pulyer-
lied state is a stomach tonic and alb
sOrbent. Stuart's Lozenges supply d
want; a remedy that is simple, handy
and efficient. They embody a plain,
practical proposition.
