BOY HERO

A little boy of seven, Maurice
Neon, was regarded with wonderful
interest and tenderness by a vast as
semblage at the Sorbonne, Paris,
when he was perched on a table on
the platform to receive a prize for
an extraordinary deed Of heroism.
Just a twelvemonth ago he was
playing near some salt marshes in
Vendee with a child of four, when
1t fell into a pool, and he went
bravely in after it with the water up
to his shoulders, and never relaxed
his efforts until he had got his
companion, who was half buried in
the mud at the bottom, safe again
on dry ground. The child was quite
unconscious, but after an hours care
full attention it was revived. His ia
Their, who had brought him up to
Paris, and who is himself a gallant
seaman, could not refrain from
tears as the account Of his sons
brave deed was read out to that de.

The story of how Anthony Hope
Hawkins became an author is an in
teresting one.
By profession Mr.. Hawkins is a
lawyer; but he was always a book
worm. Many years ago he met a
widely known editor who was so
struck with the way he discussed
literature hat he asked him if he
aver did any writing himself, and
that if so would he allow him to
see some of his work.
The young lawyer was not long
in producing n Of his manuscripts.

Mr.. Hawkins jumped at the
chance, suggesting the modest re-

CURIOUS GLASS.

Platinised glass is a very curious
invention. A piece of glass is coated
with an exceedingly thin layer of a
liquid charged with platinum, and
then raised to a red heat. The
platinum becomes united to the glass
in such a way as to form an odd
kind of mirror. The glass has not
really lost its transparency, and yet
if n places it against a wall and
looks at it he sees his image as in an
ordinary looking glass. But when
light is allowed to come through the
glass from the other side, as when
i. is placed against a window, it APP
pears perfectly transparent like or
binary glass.

coNvIcTs CURIOUS POSITION.

The police Of Marseilles are wor-
ried concerning a curious dilemma
which confronts them. On April II,
q man named Joseph Edel died at
the Hospital Of the Conception, and
was buried he was a returned con-
Wet. The other week two police
men arrested Joseph Bdel In the
main street Of Marseilles. The man
who had died In the hospital had
escaped from the French settlement,
and, before doing so, had stolen Jo-
seph Edel's papers. The police are
now In a q~uandary. Joseph Edel
has been arrested, and ought to go
to prison for returning to a coun-
try which does not want him, but,
legally, Joseph Edel is dead, and By
French law he may commit any
crime he likes-murder included
without fear Of punishment for, be-
ing dead, his country's laws will
have nothing to do with him. The
Marseilles police are now trying to
have the death certificate altered,
but this will be a lengthy process,
and, meanwhile, they will be obliged
to set their dead prisoner, the real
Joseph Edel. at liberty.

MANS NOSE THE LIMIT.

One of Judge Lindsay's stories is
Of 8 poor Irishman who was arrest
ed in Denver, COL, on the Fourth Of
July for punching another man in
the face. When the judge asked
him If he was guilty he said: "Sure,
that's what I'm here to find out"
The Judge told him he was charged
with striking a man. "But wasn't
1t the Fourth Of July, and couldn't
I have a bit of funp" he asked.
Yea" said the judge 'but your

MAKE FOR BODILY COMFORT
Small THINGS That Help to Perfect
Physical Condition-Care OF
the Feet.

Bodily comfort has much to do
with the mental state, and, conse-
uucntIy, with the accomplishment OF
work. and considering, too, the re-
action Of the spirits of one member
Of the household upon the other
members, it becomes a positive sin
for a mother, especially, not to do
cYcrvthing in her power to keep her
self in good physical condition. The
first requirement Of comfort is bod
iIy cleanliness the second is COM
Portable clothing. Women are too
prone to economic on footwear, es-
DociaIIy for house wear. Often when
mothers feet ache because OF
patched stockings or turnover shoes,
her temper is stretched to the snap
ping point and husband and chill
dren long for peace. A cold foot
bath and a clean, soft pair Of stock
ings each morning, two pairs Of
really comfortable shoes, changing
the shoes early in the afternoon, will
make a brand-new woman Of her.
The busiest woman, because she
needs 1t most, should add to this
time and temper saving process a
