Food BY Proxy.

Most of US know some particular
food or drink, the desire for which is
stimulated in US by reading about it..
But the writing must be skillful, or II
not skillful, artlessly good. The cruder
method of the stage produces the same
effect; all smokers have experienced
the almost overwhelming desire to
smoke which comes upon them when
someone lights a cigarette on the
stage; these strange and rapid restau-
rant meals of the fashionable theater,
when party sits down at table and
is whirled through six courses in
about five minutes, surrounded by
champagne bottles in ice buckets and
trays OF liquors, have an absurdly ex-
citing effect.

ONE ON THE FLO0RWALKER
Presumably He Knew Duties OF His
Position. But He Was Not Pro-
fcient in Spelling.

The worst thing about the following
is that it is true, and what's more.
that it happened in one Of Pittsburgh s
stores,
The girl. stylishly attired. stepped
up to the still more stylishly attlred
doorwalker and inquired where she
would find the chiffon. The tloorwalk'
er consulted a notebook. Her surprise
came when he gravely told her that
they did not keep chiffon.
Why" she gasped, you cannot
possibly mean that"
In her eagerness she stepped closer
to the stylishly- attired man than Eiea'
nor Gale says a stylishly attired WON
an should, and looked over his shout
der at the notebook.
"Oh! see," she said, fatty, as she
moved eff to ask the girl at the glove
counter about the chiffous The man
had been looking under the ss.-bai

No False Teeth.

Many words of housewifely wisdom
had her mother impaired to the fair
young bride on all subjects from man
aging husbands to tackling tramps.
And some of them were now being
put to the test.
He was a particularly dirty-looking
specimen, but he had told the tale
with the pathos Of an expert. The
youthful house mistress felt touched,
out determined to follow her mothers
precepts.
Now, my son" she said when he
had finished. Il will give you some
hing to eat if you will take that
chopper"
"Oh, mum, shan't need it," the
ramp treasured her. My teeth are

Brass Buttons No More.

The Grenadiers and some OF the
other British guard battalions are now
giving up the brass letters on their
shoulder straps and wearing instead
the name of their regiment worked in
cotton on cloth. as the men OF the
Royal Flying corps have always done.
The guards are also to have the brass
buttons on their tunics replaced with
bone buttons and the practice may be
extended throughout the army.
The soldiers will not be at all sorry,
as they have to spend good deal Of
elbow grease in keeping the brass
shiny. The change is being made not
because England is running short Of
brass. but because experience has
shown that the metal shines in the
sunlight. and catches the eye OF the
enemys snipers.
