HOW TO KEEP A SECRET
BY GEORGIA HORN.

i've been out OF town for few
days." remarked Alice to her friend
Nell. "Bess and Claribell Spencer en-.
tertained all our old school club at
their summer place, Rose Lodge, be-
fore they closed t. There we're ten
of us all told, and we had quite an
exciting time. wish dared tell you
about IT,"
why shouldn't you tell me?'
well, | know l really should not,
but If you'll promise eternal secrecy,
l believe I will tell you, because you're
a friend OF virginia's and anything
that concerns her will be OF special
interest to you.
you see, the first night we we're at
Rose Lodge we sat on the floor before
the blazing fire and played truth The
engaged girls all confessed, and when
It came virginia's turn she laughed
and said she wasn't engaged--yetl
And that was all she would say.
You know how kilograms are
usually delivered by telephone in the
country. Well, one morning when
was Strengthening the dining room a
message came over the phone for Vir-
ginia. She was out walking, so l took
It for her. After the operator had
given II to me he insisted upon my
shouting 1t back to him for vertical

garet, who we're the dinner committee

Nell.

turn unopened special delivery letter

cannot explain 1t was signed John

Before Virginia came in from her
walk the letter itself had been brought
by boy from the village, and handed
Virginia the dispatch that had writ
ten down and the letter at the same
time.

of her.
Just what he asks, of course was
Virginia's virtuous reply.

HEAR COURT TRIALS AT HOME
French Invention That Does Away
With Necessity for Actual Pres
ence During Proceedings.

Bench and Bar makes the follow
ing comment on an instrument de-
scribed as the "themisophone:"
at is said that in the new build
ings of the Palais de Justice in Paris
an instrument called the 'themiso-
phone has been installed, by means
of which all telephone subscribers
will be enabled, for small fee, 30
hear all court proceedings in their
homes. Some of the French newspa-
pers express approval of the plan, as
tending to secure increased diligence
and impartiality, and an enlarged
sense of responsibility on the part OF
the judges, due to a consciousness OF
the fact that the ears of all Paris
may be listening not only to the ar
guments of counsel, but the rulings
and instructions of the court. At all
events, this arrangement will give
counsel a larger audience, so that the
innovation may be welcomed by a bar
which is rigidly restrained from some
of the publicity methods not deemed
inexcusable by the ethical standards
of some of our American cities.
"1f such an arrangement were put
into operation in our courts here one
might hear gunman condemned,
CRATER convicted, a rich smuggler
fined, or magistrate deliver himself
upon the immortality of the tango by
merely turning switch. New York's
proposed circular courthouse, which
is an innovation in design, might be
rendered additionally novel by the
themisophone.' Should Paris lead
New York in such matters? We
think not"

Kansas Woman Helpless.

Lawrence, Kan. Mr.. J. F. Stone,
of this city, says: my wife suffered
for ten years from womanly trou-
bles, during two years of which she
was totally helpless. She was exam
ined by many physicians, some of
whome gave her up to die. Finally
she began to take Cardui, and since
then has greatly improved in health.
The tonic, strengthenings, and re-
effects Of Cardui, the wo-
mans tonic, on the womanIy consti-
tuition, are the most valuable quail
ties of this popular medicine. Car
dui acts specifically on the womanly
constitution. Half century of sue
cess proves that Cardui will do all
that is claimed for it. Try it for
your trouble.
