the green ones, fresh meats and fish,
poultry, cereals, fruits and a few
sweets after meals; live an outdoor
life; sleep ten or twelve hours in a
room well ventilated; take deep
breathing exercises before an open
window every morning; do not over
exert yourself in household duties
2. This is sometimes due to nerves
Have no excitement before retiring,
take hot bath and warm glassful of

California Girls
Innocent Credulity

"Do you know" said the California
girl visiting friend in Palisade the
other day, "that 1 seldom if ever get
the hang of a joke just right?"
What do you meant" she was
asked, with the desire to draw her
out bit.
II don't know. / just seem stupid
at times. When l was coming east
from California this last time there
were lot of boys in the observation
car, and they told the greatest num-
Der of things"
"For instance" she went on,
Edward Brown asked me if I knew
how they killed elephants? Of
course, l didn't, so he up and told
me. He said they propped their eyes
open with two sticks, and they died
from insomnia because they couldn't
sleep. How funny!' l exclaimed
very seriously, and everyone laughed.
"Then another time on the way here
this same Ed. Brown asked me if /
had ever seen the way they catch
wild horses on the plains, and / was
all curiosity. How is it they catch
wild horses, Ed.?' l asked. Oh he
replied, they just tickle them be-
hind the ear, and they become quite
tame Immediately Then everybody
laughed again; but Ed. told me not to
mind, that that was really the way.
Of course, don't see why Ed. should
want to fool me, an old friend.
"But the funniest thing Ed. told was
about the swanco. What's swanco? ?"
l asked again in my innocence. Then
Ed. told me. A swanco is a fish.
why, ! never heard of such thing
another girl in the party said.
Neither did T. told Ed. Then Ed.
explained that swanco was a fish
just like any other fish, only the fins
and scales were put on backwards.
We had girl artist along, so she
went off to her seat and drew
swanco, and brought it over to show
the thing to Ed. It was the funniest
looking fish you ever saw. We
laughed over the things Ed. told a
whole lot, but 1 still do not see any
number of the things he told. For
instance, he said he was out hunting
in the Rocky mountains one time,
when they got after Rocky noun
tain goat. They ran the goat away
up the mountain. Then he would
leap off of one peak to another and
disappear; but they finally got him
up where there were only two peaks,
quite far apart, and as they ran the
goat up to the very top of the peak
they were on, the goat jumped out
into the air to leap across to the
other peak, but when he got half way
across, he saw he could not make it,
so he turned and jumped back again!"
"'Did they catch the goat?' 1
asked. NO. Ed. replied, 'one of the
party fell off the top, so they let the
goat CO. I did not see why every
body laughed, but they did"

MadisonSquareGarden
"Hung'' With Music

All loneliness Of tune and rhythm,
romance and concerto, were present
at Friday evenings concert of the
Civic Orchestral Society at Madison
Square Garden. The immense mag
inings of Beethoven in his well-loved
Fifth C-minor, Symphony; the sky
lark loneliness of the "Figaro" of
Mozart; the ether tones of a violin
in the hands of the Master, Hoch-
stein, in Wieniawiski' undying
Romance" from the I'd Concerto in
D-minor, were a few Of the lovely
offerings with which the spacious
Garden was saturated, by Conductor
Rothwelps galaxy of fine players.
The evenings chief claim to i'm
mortality, as it were, however, lay
in the arresting beauty of Hoch-
STEMS heaven-voiced and sky-born
violinings. How unearthly were his
musings none who was not present
could believe. During his Romance
his host Of hearers were more in a
state of worship than Of listening; as
in his "Zingara" they were a-lilt with
him and the swift vibrations from
his bounding bow.
The orchestral voice found its
most felicitous expression, perhaps,
in the haunting memories of Spain in
Bizet's Carmen" its Aragonaise
and the royal strains of the
"Toreador's Song" They were also
happy in the ocean-like swellings of
the Beautiful Blue Danube" of
Strauss.
