THE EXPLANATION

Robert Henri, the artist, said N
New York of bogus "old master:' -
"Some of these experts must be
very ignorant, judging from the facili-
ty with which they are duped. They
must be ready to swallow anything.
1t s like the Velasquez story.
San auctioneer, you know, put up
the picture, saying:
=" Here we are, ladies and gentle
men-this exquisite Valsquez-'' Bat
tie of Waterloo What am / bid?
One million, nine hundred thousand =
" But interrupted an expert, in a
puzzled voice. But l thought Nelas
quez died before the battle of Water
loo?'
&" SO he did, sir explained the
auctioneer, so he did; but this, you
see, is one of dear old Velly's post
humous works.'''

An old darkey with an old gray mule
hitched to 4 ramshackle wagon stood
on the incline of Capitol hill, in Wash

storms in January.
The old man huddled in his rabbit

were attracted by the strange outfit
and wondered, as time went on and the
darkey made no effort to depart, what
allied the old fellow.

and said. ''Why don't you move on,

SUMMER HEALTH HINTS

The medical department of lead
ing insurance company has issued
bulletin containing the following time
ly advice:
1t is possible to have "bully"
time without getting SO close to nature
that it takes six months to recover
and become again civilized. If "back
to Nature'' means to move about in
glory of the earth and sea and sky,
it is a good slogan; but if it means an
effort to leap backward about thirty
thousand years in three weeks, it ia
not good slogan for health.
After all, Inature' is but another
word for environment. If We are sur
rounded by civilized conditions, We
must adjust ourselves to such condi-
tions, and not attempt by violent
means to attain adjustment to tho
environment of the caveman. This
means: exercise moderately during va
cation; loaf enough to relax but not
enough to soften; get a good, refresh
ing bath every day, but avoid pro-
longed immersion, especially in fresh
water. Keep your head covered from
the sun, unless you wish to invite heat
prostration. and even badness. Pure
water-pure miik-f'resh fish. Be sure
about these things in hot weather.
Avoid surface wells and springs in the
vicinity of dwellings, or boil the WA
ter. Protect food from the house fly.
Avoid the common swimming pool with
its bacteria laden water, or at least
do not dive into it and take the risk
of infection. Look out for the mos
quito that flies in the early evening.
Clean up-clean up your farm, door
yard, cellar and premises. Burn rub
bish and garbage; drain stagnant
pools; attend to sewage disposal. Time
and money thus expended will savo
doctor bills-perhaps lives.
Eat moderately; exercise within
your limits, remembering that after
forty there are limits; interest your
self in something worth while; avoid
alcohol and keep your nervous system
in smooth working order, and there are
few places in this country where the
Quotations of the thermometer can
really harm you.

Little Tommy Jones' mother, who
lives on East Eighth street, has been
drilling into his little memory the first
principles Of politeness. One of these
is to refuse the second piece of cake
whenever it is offered to him. Tommy
and his mother recently were guests of
a neighbor at dinner. The hostess was
indulgent and fond of little Tommy
and enjoyed watching his efforts to ap-
pease his appetite. Finally it was
time to eat the cake. Tommy made
short work of his allotted one piece
and the hostess passed the cake to him
the second time. Like well-bred
youngster, he replied:
"No, thanks.'
