Reason Why.

She was a dear. old fashioned, modest, simple maiden lady. So that when she announced the fact that she thought of paying chiropodist a visit her great friend was duly astonished.
 T didn't know you suffered from corns." remarked the latter, when the news was first broken to her.
 "I don't" replied the old lady mild ly. albeit firmly; neither am 1 af- fiicted with bunions. chilblains, nor any other pains in the feet"
 Her friend gazed at her with grow ing consternation.
 Then, my dear" she demonstrated gently. what on earth do you want to visit chiropodist for?"
 The little old lady's cheeks blushed delicate pink as she leaned forward laid one mittened hand on her interro gators arm and whispered:
 It's this way, my dear. I do sc want to be able to boast that at Least once In my life I had a man at my feet!"

FUTILE HINT TO THE BORE
Social Caller Could Not Understand Gentle lntimation Conveyed
 by His Host.

President Wilson, thanks in part to his splendid training at Princeton, but thanks in greater part to his tact, is said to receive and dismiss visitors more adroitly than any former occu- pant of the White House.
 Sometimes. however, a stupid visitor turns up, and then President Wilson's tact Is unappreciated. and the visitor overstays his time. Apropos of such visitors the president at luncheon in Washington told story.
 There was an old fellow" he said, who was praising the rising young lawyer of his town
 George, for busy man. said the old fellow. is one of the pleasantest chaps l ever met. Why. 1 dropped in on him for a social call this morning and l hadn't been chattin' with him more than fifteen minutes before he'd told me three times to come and see him again"

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

R. F. D. No. l, Lewisburg. Ky.-"Fff- teen years ago l was badly affected with eczema upon my scalp first, then 1t spread all over my body and con- tinued to grow worse for four years. It began with a dry rash. After form ing thick scales or scabs the irritation forced me to scratch the scabs of and the hair would come out with them Upon my face and body the sores would get inflamed and they disfig- ured my face. It was worse where my clothes irritated them. The erup- ton was a yellowish watery kind. sometimes bloody. In warm weather 1t was so bad I was not able to work on account of the raw irritating sores on my head and body.
 After trying various medicines without relief I tried Cuticura Soap and Ointment. After using four cakes of Cuticura Soap and four boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle Of the Resolvent I was entirely sound and well and have been for eleven years" (Signed) W. H. Williams, Mar 19, 1912.

SAW HOPE FOR THE BEAF
Birthday Gift Had Every Possibility of Being Received as One of
 the Family.

Page, true little southerner. is lav- ishly endowed with the traditional family spirit" His sense of family, indeed, Is so strong that he regards any one or anything belonging to his own household as in some mysterious but very real way superior to all the rest of the world.
 Page has a dog whom he loves very dearly, and 1t grieved him much when. not long since, Jickey declined to have anything to do with the stuffed bear that came as a birthday gift. Pres ently, however, he became normally cheerful and began to play happily. A visitor sympathetically inquired if Jickey has decided to adopt the new bear as his friend.
 Not yet" Page made smiling an. swer, but he will soon, Aunt Annie You see. Jickey's only dog and he doesn't think as quick as we do. He thinks the bear is only paying a call here. But just as soon as he knows that the bear is one of the family he'll take to him all right"

"That Human Trumpet Call"

When Enrico Caruso was in Atlanta few days ago he sang to the prison CTS in the federal penitentiary three songs. including his Sob Song" from "Pagliacci." After hearing Caruso, Julian Hawthorne, now convict No, 4435, wrote a poem, a few lines of which run thus: Then, in the hush of the great blank
 hall,
 God wrought a wondrous miracle, For voice like glorious trumpet
 call
 Arose as a soul from the deeps of
 hell, And our souls rose with it on won
 drous wings, Rose from their prison of iron and
 clay Forgot the grime and the shame of
 thingsi
 We were men once again in a sun
 lit day, Sin and grief and punishment-all Were lost in that human trumpet
 call"

Many Plants "Left-Handed.n

Habits of plants analogous to the right-handedness and left-handedness of man have been reported to the Cambridge, England Philosophical society by R H. Compton.
 In an examination of eight varieties of tworowed barley, the first leaf was found to twist to the left In 5S per cent. of more than 12000 seedlings, and an excess of left-handed growth was found also in millet and in oats.
 In corn there seemed to be no marked tendency either way. No evi- dence Of hereditary peeuliarity ap- pears to have been obtained and no special significance of the results is pointed out.

SOME HINTS FOR SUMMER
 MEALS.

During the hot weather. food spells so quickly that it is wise to purchase just enough to last over the twenty four hours. Fruits of all kinds. green vegetables and little meat should con stitute the bulk of ones diet
 Fruits needs mastication, even the very ripe and tender varieties. Those who are distressed after eating fruit are usually those who are careless about masticating 1t.
 Summer breakfasts are usually a problem to the housemother, especial ly if her family has a diversity of tastes. There is nothing more re fre-hing and satisfying than fresh fruit in it's season. and nature has sup piled us so abundantly that even the fussy person may have the kind he likes
 Fried fruit seems out of place. as does oatmeal, except at rare intervals, There are always cool days when hearty foods are relished, so that va riety is thus given.
 Housewives who are careful of their linen have small colored napkins for the fruit course. which saves the white napkins from many stains.
 Omelets are always accep able as a breakfast dish, especially in warm weather. and they may be varied by different sauces or seasonings. de licious sweet omelet which may be served as a dessert is prepared as fol lows: Have the omelet pan hot and well buttered, then add a handful of blanched almonds just before putting in the omelet; when it is cooked, ready to fold, the almonds will be well Drowned Be careful not to scorch them. Serve this with a hot maple sirup for sauce.

COOL DISHES FOR HOT DAYS.

Heavy buildings should be given m entireiy during the summer. Fresh i'nit IS an ideal dessert, with an occa. sionai custard and old-fashioned rice pudding, sponge cake with whipped cream and gelatine desserts. which si'es one quite variety.
