Deeeivinu the Widow.

A healthy locking woman dressed In
deep mourning stepped on 10 the plat
form scales and requested the grocers
clerk TO ascertain her weight. He
looked and said. lone hundred and
forty pounds.
"You made mistake Of twelve
pounds In that woman's weight" said
another man who had also watched
the scales. "She weighed 152 pounds
instead of 40"
81 know that" said the clerk, but
she never would have forgiven me If /
had told her so. That woman's hus-
band died about six weeks ago. She
has gained seven pounds In that time,
but to keep her in good humor with
herself | had to make her think she
had lost five. j don't know why ii is,
but anybody who has suffered bereave-
ment seems to consider it a disgrace to
take on flesh. That woman has been
weighed three times since her husband
died She would be shocked If she
knew she had gained right along. For
tunately she Is too nearsighted to read
the scales herself. so it is easy to
make her think she is wasting away"

Law and the Queen.

The quaintness Of many provisions
of British law is curiously illustrated
in the status OF the queen Of England.
SO far as her majestys private bust
ness is concerned, she is not regarded
by the laws and customs of England
as a married woman at all. She is the
only woman in Great Britain who does
not come within the scope Of the mar
ried woman's property act. The idea
In all this is that affairs Of state con-
sumo all the time Of the king, and
therefore no responsibility for the
queens private business rests upon
him. If the queen contracted debts in
her husbands name he would not be
responsible for them, us any other
husband in the United Kingdom would.
The king cannot be sued for debt, but
the queen can be. Should the king die,
some authorities hold that the queen
could not marry again, in case she
wished TO, without the license Of the
kings successor.-New York Tribune.

Cold as a Cure.

Cold of certain intensity produces
not only hunger. but. as it has been
proved. health as well. Raoul Pictet
the famous Swiss chemist. was max
ing experiments on degree of cold
considerably lower than any which
occurs naturally. and he found that
at temperatures between 10 and $50
below zero no covering of any kind
would keep cold out. or, more exactly
would keep warmth in. There is moth
ing surprising about that. The sur
prise is in the result NJ. Pictet is a
gentleman who has suffered greatly
from Indigestion. After an exposure
of several minutes To the cold which
he had produced he experienced a sen
sation of hunger which he has de
scribed as ravenous When he had
eaten he experienced none of the tor
lures Of his ailment. and when he had
alternately frozen and eaten three or
four times he found himself entirely
cured.-London Telegraph.

PLAN TO STOP SMUGGLING.
Dealers In Gems Form Association to
Aid Authorities.

To stop the smuggling of gems espe-
cially diamonds and pearls, move
ment has been begun in the Maiden
lane district of New York city. Thirty
Of the largest wholesale firms have
formed an association for the purpose
Of cooperating with the federal au-
thorities in running down all snug
glers, whether dishonest dealers or re-
turning tourists.
One of the means proposed for elm
mating the gem smugglers or at least
curtaiing their activity is to induce
the London diamond syndicate or the
British authorities to keep accurate
records Of shipments, as is done by the
customs authorities in New York. In
addition, the members of the new asso-
citation in New York are to obtain and
give information that will assist the
authorities in tracing shipments and
sales in New York and abroad when
ever there is suspicion of smuggling.

Doc Law In ConstantinopIe.

"When one of the street dogs of Con
stantinople gets too old to be Of use
to the band the captain dog decides
that he is TO die" says Albert Bigelow
Paine in Harper's Weekly. "A day
comes when the captain issues an edict
that he is no longer to have food.
From that day until his death not a
morsel passes his lips. With longing
eyes he looks at the others eating. but
he makes no attempt to join them.
Now and again n bit Of something falls
his way. The temptation is too strong
he reaches toward the morsel. The
captain, who Overlooks nothing, gives
a low growl. The dying creature
shrinks back without a murmur. He
knows the law. Perhaps he. too, was
once a captain. The minister's wife
told me that she had tried to feed one
of those dying dogs, but that even
when food was placed in front Of him
he would only look pleadingly at the
captain and refuse to touch it,"
