GOOD RESULT OF SUGGESTION
Chance Phrases and Ideas That Have
Been Utilized and Found to
Have Real Value.

Richard Mansfield told me that
when he was lad in London he often
nearly starved. There was certain
bakeshop where he would go and feast
upon the odors coming from the door
The boyhood notion gave him the idea
of putting those lines in his play
Beau Brummel,'' about dining on
the names of things"-a suggestion
he used with powerful dramatic eff
feet.
This idea of suggestion has done
many a good deed. About ninety
years ago a thirsty man walked up
Wall street, understand the habit of
getting thirst no longer prevails
there, or maybe it is only the manner
of allaying it-and pumped a lineup
full of water from his own well. Not
so good as / used to get from my IA
theirs WE'LL" or something to that eff
feet he remarked to his wife. "a pref
ty idea for a song" said she, and so
he sat down and in an hour wrote

ITCHING TERRIBLE ON LIMB

R. F. d. No. 8, Clarkfield, MINI
MY trouble was of long standing. 1t
started with some small red and vel
low spots about the size of pin head
on my leg and every morning there
was dry scale on top covering the
affected part and when those scales
were falling off the itching was more
than 1 could stand at times. The first
year / did not mind it so much as it
was only itching very badly at times,
but the second year it advanced all
around my leg and the itching was
terrible / had to be very careful to
have my clothing around the affected
part very loose. At night time often
happened to scratch the sore in my
sleep. Then had to stand up, get out
of bed and walk the floor till the spell
was over
81 bought lots of salves and tried
many different kinds of medicine but
without any success. / got a cake of
Cuticura Soap and a fifty-cent box of
Cuticura Ointment and when 1 had
ing. But I kept on with the Cuticura
Soap for six weeks and the cure was
complete" (Signed) S. o. Gorden.

Letter" Game

This is a very old game, but 1 have
no doubt that it will be new to many,
and am sure those of us who knew it
in our youth will be glad to renew the
acquaintance. Any number of players
may participate.
The one who proposes the game ex.
plains that the letter chosen must be-
gin the answer to the question; for
instance, suppose the letter GAP is
agreed upon and the leader says .men-
ton the name of an American city be-
ginning with "a" (Atlanta); a for
eign city, (Amiens); an American
river, (Alabama); a mineral, (ame-
thysD; vegetable (artichoke); an
animal, (ape); an article to be worn,
tarctics), etc.
Questions innumerable may be sug-
gested. MADAME MERRl

Emiarant Party.

This was a most amusing entertain
ment given at a seaside place at the
little clubhouse built out over the
water.
The invitations read: "An Aboard
for the Manor Dock Come in Emf
grant Costume; August Eighth at
Eight O'clock.
Refreshments fifty cents"
The cards were limited to a coterie
who were well acquainted and as the
parting of the ways was near, every
one entered most heartily into the
scheme. The couple who attracted a
great deal of attention was a man and
his wife who appeared as Dutch peas
ants, including wooden shoes Pad
dy" from Cork and Sweet Kitty"
his colleen, were hailed with delight
Prizes were awarded to a family of
Russian Jews, who were most realis-
tic. carrying great rolls and bags, with
q bird cage and a baby which was a
large doll.
The grand march was formed and all
passed before the inspector, who gave
a clean bill of health. Refreshments
consisted of sandwiches, iced coffee,
doughnuts and pie served just as such
things are found in a country station;
a counter and benches had been ar
ranged with tall dishes of fruit; plates
of sandwiches, alternating with fried"
cakes and pie; hot tea or coffee, also
ice cream could be ordered
Card tables were provided for those
who wished to play, and there was a
jolly dance The possibilities of this
plan are great and such an affair could
be utilized by church society or club
as a means of making money.
Flags of all nations would make an
appropriate decoration

Summer Clothes.

Mildred Lawson, a pretty American
dancing girl, made her debut In Lon
don last month, and the English crit
les, while admiring her dances, com
planned a good deal about the scanti-
ness of her costumes. Miss Lawson
sent some of these English criticisms
to a New York agent the other day,
and in a letter accompanying them
she said: Youth notice that they kick
lot about my dresses. But what's
the use. say what's the use of ma
king such fuss about nothing. or al

unioue Wedding Anniversary.

Unique wedding AnniVersarJ
At the celebration of the fortieth
wedding day interesting decorations
on the dining room table either side of
the wedding cake were small dolls,
dressed in costumes which were exact
reproductions of the bridal apparel
worn by the bride and bridegroom on
their wedding day. Every one was SO
delighted in comparing fashions, and
daughter of the couple wore her
mothers wedding gown, as the bride
Of 40 years could not get into it,
The place cards bore pictures of the
honored guests taken at the time of
the original wedding and ones of to-
day, under which was written Forty
Years After" A picture of the first
home and the present one were also on
the card. 1t is needless to say the
guests were much pleased to have
these valuable souvenirs. The boxes
containing wedding cake bore the date
of the wedding and the present date.
