Astonished Husband.

De Wolfe Hopper tells a good story
abou. the domestic unhappiness of an
other actor. The hero of the joke was
a man who had married because the
woman had much money, although no
beauty. Naturally, after the wedding
ceremony and the acquisition of the
brides financial resources, the hus-
band was never very attentive to her.
Another member of the company in
which the couple were appearing was,
however, far more appreciative of the
lady's charms, and proceeded to make
love to her In an ardent but stealthy
manner. The grand finale came one
evening when the actor discovered
the other man kissing his wife. The
fond lover stood petrified with fear.
and expected to be shot down the
next moment.
No such thing happened. The out
ragged husband only lifted his hands
toward the ceiling with a gesture of
intense surprise. and exclaimed:
'Merciful heavens! And he didn't
even have to-"

My husband had no faith in 1t, but

If you suffer from any form of

The ingredients used in Cardui are
mild herbs, which have gentle,

MANY COURT DEATH
Hunters Every Year Venture
Forth on Niagara River.
Nimrods Caught In Running leo Jam
Observed by Man With Glass, Who
Watches Them Plunge Over
the Falls.

Buffalo, N. Y.-The fascination Of
will lure men out onto the Niagara
river in the winter to an almost GER
tain death trap. 1t seems that the
duck hunting is especially good but
very dangerous about mile above the
falls. Every winter adventurous duck
hunters put out in small boats and
dodge the ice cakes while they hunt
their favorite game. AS rule, how
ever, most of the hunters perch them
selves upon a ledge of ice and hunt
from it. They take terrible risk even
by this method, for the ice jam that
is constantly moving down stream is
at any time liable to dislodge the hunt
er's perch and down he goes a victim
to the merciless cataract.
Not many years ago two men were
observed in duck boat trying des-
perately to row out of running ice
jam which had carried them down the
Canadian channel from far up the
river. Their terrified efforts were
closely followed by a man with a spy
glass, who had discovered them from
the windows Of one of the large shore
factories on the American side. The
unfortunate men had already drifted
too near the first roaring cataract to
admit of any possible rescue, SO the
watcher could only helplessly wait for
their pitiful death.
In describing the incident afterward,
be said: God, what could do to help
them-what could any man do? The
Almighty alone seemed to hold them
In his power. One man seemed to be
wrenching his shoulders from their
sockets with the oars; the other stood
In the stern, desperately plying a pike
pole. An oar broke, and was replaced
by third. The man didn't lose a Sec
ond in its replacement. Then, in a
mighty stroke, the other oar went,
and he fell sprawling back in the boat.
He stood up, pulled the good oar from
Its pin, and began padding insanely
from the side.
They made little progress. Slowly
the great field of ice swept them
down. down toward those snarling,
angry cataracts below. l writhed in
agony before the hopeless vision. Into
the rapids swept the fore part of the
Ice jam. Then the first great wave
seemed to rise up and hover hungrily

HARD TO DROP
But Many Drop 1t.

A young CALI. wife talks about
coffee:
1T was hard to drop Mocha and
Java and give Postum a trial, but my
nerves were so shattered that / was
a nervous wreck and Of course that
means all kinds Of ills.
AT first / thought bicycle riding
caused 1t and gave 1t up, but my con-
dition remained unchanged. l did not
want to acknowledge coffee caused the
:rouble for l was very fond of it.
About that time a friend came to
five with us, and / noticed that after
he had been with us a week he would
not drink his coffee any more. asked
MIN the reason. He replied, I have
not had headache since / left on
drinking coffee, some months ago, till
last week, when began again, here at
your table. / don't see how anyone
can like coffee, anyway, after drink
ing Postum!
Il said nothing, but at once ordered
package of Postum. That was five
months ago, and we have drank no
coffee since, except on two occasions
when we had company, and the result
each time was that my husband could
not sleep. but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suf-
fering, so We returned to Postum, con-
vinced that the coffee was an enemy,
instead of friend, and he is troubled
no more by insomnia.
81, myself, have gained s pounds in
weight, and my nerves have ceased to
culver. 1t seems so easy now to quit
the old coffee that caused our aches
and ills and take up Postum" Name

END OF HISTORIC HOUSE
Residence Of Nine. de sevlgne Of Paris
to Be Turned Into Homes for
Workmen.

Paris.-One of the residences of
Madame de Sevigpe, whose letters re-
vealed so much Of the inner history Of
France during the days of ''le grand
monarQue," Is about to lose its his
toric character. It is a country house
near Lvry, on the way to Gargan, and
It used to be called Madame de Sc
vigne's "folie." "Folie" was a name
given in the days of Louis XIV, and In
later years to any country seat over
which an owner INDUCED an uncom-
mon fancy in the matter Of its design.
One of the characteristics Of
Madame de Sevigne's 'folie" was a
quaint, little chapel, and near 1t a Gu
rious sort of belfry, which long ago
fell into ruins. The rest of the cha
teau is fairly well preserved. 1t was
in this quaint residence that Madame
de Seyigne is believed to have writ
ten many Of her letters to her daugh-
ter.
1t is now sharing the fate of many
a similar relic Of the past. 1t is being
transformed into a modern resort Of
utility. An association providing cot.
tage accommodations for the working
classes has obtained possession of the
house and grounds. The old hall has
already been converted, and, with the
additions in progress. 1t will become
a vast caravansary of about 100 rooms.
with as many kitchens and Offices
Most of the old walls will remain
standing. but the transformation viii
be such that future visitors will hard
ly recognize any vestige of Madame Dc
Sevigne's 'folie."
