Daily Health Hint

In our climate, subject as we often are,
to rapid changes and extremes Of tempera-
ture, the physical system is naturally more
or less debilitated. In this connection we
are predisposed TO colds, fever and other
troubles Fruits and acid vegetables are
known to be good correctives for this
debilitated condition.

A Mortgage Under Cleopatra.

Of all the numerous Egyptian pa
pyri dating from the Graeco-Roman
period and preserved in the British
Museum none can be said to be of
greater interest than those throwing
light on the social conditions and man
ners and customs of the period. Many
of these documents are mortgages,
bills of sale and marriage contracts.
Of the first named class a very inter-
esting one dated in the twentieth year
of Cleopatra and Ptolemy Las recent
ly been published by DR.. Nathaniel
Reich. 1t appears that c shepherd
named Menthu and his mother, Ia
usir, finding themselves in difficulties,
mortgaged their field to a woman
named Etc for the sum of 600 pieces
of silver, which they promised to re-
pay in eight months time with inter-
est. In case OF failure of this condi-
ton they are willing to forfeit the
field without further trouble or obli-
cation. After giving the measure
ments of the land and particulars of
it's boundaries the document is at
tested by Heru-se-esi, scribe of Usir-
UT, alias Observation-Disclosures Globe.

The publishing house of Fasquelle

200, 900 to 100000 copies of its three
francs fifty centimes edition of &c IAN

is paying M. Rostand for the serial
rights thereof a sum which the most
conservative reports set at $4,000
francs an act-that is, 100000 francs
in all. Furthermore. the publishing
house of Pierre Laftte has purchased
for a sum which it is safer, perhaps,
not to specify, but which is admitted
to be large, the right to issue a de
luxe illustrated edition Of Rostand's
complete works. This edition will ap-
pear in seventy weekly instruments Of
twenty nages each. To these emolu-
ments may be added the considerable
sum paid for serial rights by a Lon

Women Intend to Vote.

Mrs. o. H. P. Belmont has written

In it she sets forth her reasons for
believing in the final victory Of the
cause and tells how to get the votes
in the quickest way.
lone fact may be accepted" she
says, that women intend to have the
suffrage. There are very few of the
most bitter opponents who do not
admit the most the. can hope for Is
to defer as long as possible what they
choose to term the evil day when
women shall vote
"One of the highest d~ignitaries said
to me recently, OF course, we know
that woman suffrage is inevitable;
the only question is how soon t. will
come This is the sole point at issue
now between the suffragists and anti
suffragists-when will women get the
ballot"
Mrs. Belmont replies to this ques-
ton herself by saying the quickest
method for suffragists to pursue is to
awaken public interest, to gain the
assistance of men and to create a sit
uation which will bring publicity to
the cause through the newspapers.

They Do It Better in Greece?

Views of divorce which an English
clergyman has just expressed have
drawn high encomiums from sundry
divorced women in town who have
grown reticent about their ages and
have given up having birthday par
lies. 1--WE ought to have the divorce
law that was enforced in ancient
Greece" the preacher said. "If a
certain old Greek clause were tackled
to every separation, I am persuaded
that divorces would fall off sixty to
seventy per cent. This law was that
when a man got a divorce he could
not, under any circumstances, marry
another woman younger than his for
mer wife. An innocent law, a brief
law, not much to look at-but how
many divorce suits would be nipNd
in the bud il all husbands knew that
after the separation they could not
marry younger women THAI the wives
they had cast off?"-New York

Figured foulards are to be used as

Cornfower yellow is one Of the

Many turbans are trimmed simply

Crochet lace is decidedly smart

The Chantecler Ruff.

Whether or not there will be any
season-lasting fashions evolved out
of the Chantecler fad, it is quite GER
tain that the word, itself is to be
applied to a vast amount of things
that commonly constitute a woman's
wardrobe.
The C]hantecler hat is not to be
taken seriously, considered as a
whole, but the Chantecler feathers
that are used on it will probably be
with US all summer.
There is no reason against this;
they are really very pretty in curve
and coloring, and are quite an addl-

Tobacco Monopoly in France.

An increase in the tobacco tax In
France has brought forth a mass OF
official statistics on the subject o. its
productivity. Every FrenchEan, 1t
appears, spends on an average thir-
teen francs a year on tobacco, and OF
these thirteen francs not less than
eleven francs and ninety-seven cen
times go to support the revenue. The
monopoly was first instituted by Louis
XIV. in 1874. The Revo~lutonists
abolished it in 1891, and the Bour-
bons restored it in 1917. In the first
year of it's renewal i: brought in an
income of s2,4SO,o00. In 1908 it was
yielding s17,S6O,OO0. In 1908 the
Weld was s2O,36O,000, and the Minis

years time it may be expected to
yield little short Of a23,OO0,OoO.-

Whose batting average was three-two-tWo;
When running bases he surely flew.

His rep. it certainly grew and grew

And said, "For a big league club you'll DO.

And show the vets what he could DO.

And somehow he thought he really knew.

The bands all played and the whistles blew,
And the papers gave him a send off, too.
