Bartender Finds Out One Good Thing About the Popular But Wicked
 Stmuiant

He had jusr had a tooth out--one of those extractions that seem to go to the root Of all things--and dashed iu to see his friend the bartender for solace. He called for whisky. and as ne swallowed a toper's portion e1- plained the reason for his haste. He had to drown the pain. he said. over the bar, and while he was about 1t guessed he would repeat the dose.
 T know a better way than that said the barkeeper. forcibly removing the whisky bottle from the bar. "Ab- sinths is what you need" And he poured out about a thimbleful
 All that?" inquired the toothless one. Aren't you afraid it will lay r1e out?"
 "S'nough." said the bartender. Just put that in your mouth; don't swallow it; and let fl soak in where the tooth was It will ax you all right. stop the hemorrhage and the pain at the same time"
 Credulously the customer obeyed. and found almost instant relief.
 Dangerous stuff that" said the bar tender; "even those who use it admit its 0ickedness. it's tresehery to its friends. its general eussedness. But it's . good friend to the man who's had tooth out or who has an ache is . teoth that isn't out. Don't know Thy-it isn't only the alcohol in 1t. but it's the best tooth dope I've found"

 ploding while ai practice, cnlminating
 in the sinking Of the battleship Ia
 fiberte while at anchor in Toulon
 harbor The fire on Ia liberte broke cut near the apparatus for flooding the forward magazine which after
 wards exploded, 30 near that the
 flooding machinery could not be used. This circumstance has seemed odd 10 inquirers. and even more singular was the breaking out of fires the same morning on the Patfie and on the Snffren, two other battleships. The official inquiry will endeayor to estab- fish the facts but In the meantime sinister interferences are in eirculd- tioB. Either there is certain want of preeaution which is a theory re- jected by admirers Of the navy. OF the accidents have been caused with malisa purpose.
 Upon the latter supposition the de structiye accidents might have been melted by the communistic reyolu. tionary propa ganda carried on in the navy by civilian agitators or they may have been detached acts of embitter ea individuals iTe private rebiilion against society and all authority. Scarcely a day throughout the year passes in France without acts of sim pie destruetiyeness affecting the pub lie. such as the cutting of telegraph and telephone wires. the deranging of railway switches or the placing of obstacles on tracks. The French have word of their own for these acts. It is sabotage" The word is scarce ly transferable, although akin to van dalism. In collective movements the first step is to complain to the govern ment or the corporation. the second is to demonstrate" by procession or meeting and the next is to destroy something-the vineyards in the champagne provinces. the provision shops in northern France or the rail way stations. as has happened on the Western railway. because the snbur- ban trains were usually behind their schedule.
 Now those who know the French navy and believe thoroughly in the excellent spirit and discipline that generally prevades the service, accept the idea of coincidence in the number of violent happenings and attribute them where not purely accidental to sabotage"

or late years hunting has counted few enthusiasts among members of the Imperial family Though the In.- perial game preserve covering 1S0,O0O acres, and the supplementary state preserve of 237,000 acres are second to none in variety and abundance of game, the Imperial family's modest total for last year was l,357 head of game killed including 6 bears. 6 elk, 3 lynXes, 63 foxes, 533 rabbits, 436 pheas- ants. No auiochs were killed or hunted, presumably on. account of the severe epidemic which depicted the only extant herd of these animals in the state preserve at Bieloviezh. The total for 1908 was greater than that of any recent year, with 1878, head killed.

new terror has been added to the many in store for the uuwary Amer icsn tourist who patronizes the estab- lishments of Montmartre. The police has just discovered that a band of an archist coiners has put in circulation over 30,000 francs worth Of bad five franc pieces during the past month. The leader of the syndicate is an an archist. Maria Llopis, who was con- demued to death for her eOmplicity in the revolt in Barcelona which pre-. eeded the execution of Ferrer. The proceeds are probably for the anar- chist cause. The coins are of un- usually subtle manufacture. composed of practically the same alloy as the genuine ones, and possessing such slight defects that only an expert could have detected them, hence the facility with which they were put in- to circulation. They were made in Barcelona, two of the company going there every Friday, returning to Paris on Tuesday with a fresh supply. which they delivered to the other four who hastened to change them by making small sMrehases. Thesa four are now safely under lock and key. put the wtO who brought the goods from Spain either received warning or stopped behind to parti- cipate in the recent outbreak, they holding anarehistie opinions like their chief

Queen Elizabeth of Beiguim has undertaken to revive or preserve the failing Brussels lace industry. Al though Brussels lace is admired and worn qnite as much probably as it ever was. the industry is a fading one. The girls of Belgium prefer to do something else. The small profits the effect on the eyesight and the long apprenticeship required 10 do good work drive them into other callings. The picturesque old fashioned lace worker type has almost disappeared from Belsui1n so that the making Of genuine Brussels lace is becoming a lost industry. The Queen has formed a cooperative society to study how to make the lot of workers in lace more attractive. to find higher-priced markets. especially in the United States and to encourage lace-making courses in the industrial schools. Queen Elizabeth has capitalized her company for 27,0oO, which has been subscribed by some Of the wealthiest men of Belguim, including Count de Merode, Ernest Solvay, the Soda King" the Minister of State.

dressed-to the bride or her parents? And
IL just the two words, "Heartiest con-
gratulations'' are sufficient? Hoping you
may help me out of my quandary, / am,
sincerely, A. M. Z.
Send your visiting cards to those IN

issued and to the newly married couple
If the bride is a friend of yours a per-
sonal note will be appreciated. The
hearty congratulations" go to the
bridegroom, who is supposed to be for.
tunate in having won the lady of his
choice. The bride is to be fortified for
the matrimonial voyage by wishes for
her future happiness. Even if you
think she is to be congratulated upon
having embarked it isn't deemed polite
to tell her so.

Washing Blankets.

My Dear Miss Doom:
Will you kindly tell me how I can
wash blankets without shrinking
them? r. Il. M,
A housewife whose blankets always
retain their softness without shrinking
gives the secret. Make the suds in a
tub with any good white soap, having
the water hot. Dissolve in it a table
spoonful of borax. Run threads around
soiled spots on the blanket, SO that
they may be found after they are wet
Rinse the blankets up and down Wig
orously, rubbing only the marked spots.
Never rub the soap directly on them.
Prepare another lot of hot suds with
borax and put the blankets in it. Rinse
up and down for several minutes, then
rinse in clear hot water softened with
borax. Rinse in as man, hot waters
as necessary, then rub blankets
through a wringer.

at the same time ~elevating yourself
until you are drawn TO YOU full
height, standing on tiptoe, your lungs
expanded to their full capacity.
Exercise No. 11-Stand on one foot
n clasp your hand around your raised
Knee. Then draw the knee as close in
to the body as you possibly can. Re-
| peat the exercise with the other knee.
This exercise is directly beneficial to
the digestive organs. 1t should never

below the ribs. Throw all your weight
onto your elbow and shoulders and lift
until your knee are above your head.
Then rest for a moment, keeping the
thumbs pressed tightly against your
