ART IN ARRANGING FLOWERS
Add the Distinctive Touch, So Much
Desired, to the Individual
Costume.

Those who have been fortunate
enough to travel, and have done so
with observant eyes, will have noticed
chat women Of different nationalittes
have each some special adornment or
article of attire which they alone
seem to know how to wear to per-
fection. For instance, the Spanish
woman can wear her shawl to the best
advantage In a multiplicity of ways
while other women merely use 1t as
a wrap, and it has been said that only
a French woman can tie bow. /.
When 1t comes to the question Of
wearing flowers. the girls In south
,ern Europe and the bellies OF the.
South Sen Islands run each other very
close for the distinction OF best know
Eng the way to use flowers for their
personal adornment. Arranged by
clumsy or inartistic hands, an almost
hideous effect can be obtained, while
sf woven gracefully in the hair or
placed carelessly in the dress, the
daintiest finishing touch can be given

STOMACH WAS A JUNK SHOP
Human Ostrich" Operated On and
Knives, Nails, Keys and Pieces
Of Iron Removed.

Pittsfleld, Mass.-Luke Parsons, the
human ostrich" who was in training
for his annual Thanksgiving feast of
jack knives and spikes, for which he
has a special fondness, was operated
on at the house of Mercy hospital the
other night and 1872 nails, two keys,
six knives and a piece of iron were re-
moved from his stomach and mites.

DR.. w. G. Wilder, the hospital ply
stefan, assisted by DR.. I. S. F. Dodd,
performed the operation. The nails
had punctured the abdomen and peri
tonitis resulted, which led Parsons to
apply for admission to the hospital on
his statement that my digestion is
out of order"
While he was working as a carpen-
ter, ten years ago Parsons accidentally
swallowed some single nails. The
diet gave him no trouble and he took
to training with nails as a regular
menu, and adding jack knives and
pieces Of tin with button hooks as q
salad and keys for dessert.
Il am feeling pretty hungry this
afternoon" he said one day, and to
satisfy his hunger he swallowed a
gross of collar buttons.
Parsons told his surgeons he had
eaten no solid nourishment in iron
or steel since last Thanksgiving. He
is forty years old.

Why Ela Wept.

At reception one night, says the
Woman's Home Companion, a loud
voiced young man was invited to sing.
Desultory applause followed, and he
responded with a vociferous rendering
of MY Old Kentucky Home. The
hostess was passing among her guests,
beanling at the success of her enter
tainment and sure that everybody was
having a good time, when suddenly, to
her surprise, she came upon a middle
aged man but slightly known to her,
who was weeping silently but bitterly
in a secluded corner. Thinking that
his heart had been touched by the old
song, she asked sympathetically:
Why do you weep? Are you Ken.

beast walked into view, not more

looking about him, and I drew a bead
on his shoulder. Useless! The rife

the life of me I could not keep it. still,
nor hold my breath. My heart was in

As the cruel letter slipped from her

little sob, and might have written
another to recall it, If she had not ac-

as he was waking beside a remark
