Drunk on Ether.

Ether is consumed by gallons to
get drunk on in small part Of Scot
land. The origin of this peculiar and
limited abuse is strange. In 184S a
bad epidemic of cholera broke out in
Glasgow. Among those flying from it
were some who came back to Drap-
erstown, their native place. With
them they brought cholera mix
ture which they found exceeding
comforting" A rascally doctor, know
ing that the comfort proceeded from
ether, laid in a whole cask. He made
his fortune, and started the habit
that lasts till yet. Ether is sold over
counters in Scotland, the penny a
drink. An old ether topper can drink
two or tire ounces day, but one
half ounce is one big dram In water.
The drinker gets hilarious In min.
ute. It is far wilder and more dam
gerous than alcohol.

WIFE IS REMARKED
WHEN HUB RETURNS
INDIANA MAN WHO WAS GONE
FOUR YEARS AND BELIEVED
TO BE DEAD.
DISAPPEARS WITH HIS SON
70 Declared TO Have Said That He
Found Woman Happy and That He
Would Go Away Again Never to
Return.

Indianapolis.-"H are you, Man
dy!" spoke Samuel Stevens, the other
evening, to woman sitting in front
Of her little cottage. The voice
startled her. She looked up and sud-
denly rose to her feet
Ell thought you were dead-dead
and buried!" the woman cried. How
did you get here? Where did you
come from?"
mo, no, Mandy; / am very much
alive" the man replied evenly. i
don't know what made you think l
was dead" he continued, tenderly, to
the emotion-swept woman before him.
She then told him of her belief that
he was dead, and that she had mar
ried William Hall, who had given her
a good home and been q kind hus-
band.
Such Is the brief description given
of the meeting of Samuel Stevens and
his wife, from whose presence he had
disappeared four years before.
The story of the Stevenses is like
a chapter from a novel Four years
ago they were living together and
had seven children. The husband and
father was a laborer. The family is
said to have gotten along as well and
lived as comfortably as the average
family of labOring man and the fam
lily relations were pleasant Then, one
day, after some little upset over one
of the children, the punishment by
him of daughter. it is said, neigh
bors made a complaint, and a war
rant is declared to have been issued
for his arrest. He disappeared from
his home. His wife expected that he
would soon return.
AS time wore on she found the
struggle alone of trying to provide for
the large family too hard battle.
She made a brave effort, but the
handicap was great. She could not
get steady work and sickness now
and then invaded the little home.
Then she allowed three of the chill
dren to be taken away. she keeping
the youngest. Through the day she
toiled for her children, and continued
to hope for her husbands return. She

back and believed that he was doing
the best he could and what he thought
was right.
Then one day a grocer brought the
news that her husband was dead. He
had received a letter, he said, in
which it was stated that Sam Stevens
had been victim of yellow fever at
Oswego, Miss.
She lost heart and gave up the re-
naming children except the youngest,
Harry. With only one child to care
for she found it little easier to get
along. Neighbors helped and time

Read Somewhat Peculiar.

That there is not much In a name
after all was proved amusingly day
or so ago. says the Philadelphia Times,
when a prominent business man re-
ceived a postal from his son and
daughter-in-law. saying: I'VE are on
our way to He'll, but it's not as hot az
you would expect. More than that,
continued the postcard. ''it's as easy
to get out of as to get into" The
news came as quite surprise to the
man, as, knowing his son and daugh-
ter-in-law, he scarcely pictured them
on their way to the internal regions.
1t turns out, however. that He'll is .
village in Norway OF 1883 inhabitants
and Is In nowise rival to its name
sake. 'T wouldn't mind 1t at ALL" de-
clares the recipient Of the news, "if he
only hadn't sent It on postcard"

that one is for the handkerchief and
the other for the powder puff AS no

Paints and pYeina.

If your dress accessories do not
quite match your gown or you wish
that gown itself slightly different
shade, try painting with oil colors and
gasoline. The effect is marvellous and
the slight odor soon goes off. Kid
slippers can thus be made to match
exactly any costume.
A spot on linen can be painted with
water-cclors to match the clean ma
terial, az the paint sinks into the linen
without changing its texture. 1t rubs
of. however, and must be renewed
every five or six months.
