HAYE PRETTY HAIR.
T hick, Soft, Fluffy, and No
Dandruff —Use Parisian
Sage
If your hair is losing its natural
color, coming out and splitting, or
lacks that enviable softness, gloss
and beauty, do not despair—pretty
hair is largely a matter of care. If
it is too thin make it grow. If it is
harsh and britfcfcc soften it up—lu
bricate it. If you have dandruff it
is because the scalp is too dry and
flakes off. Freshen up the scalp
with lf .‘-r»sJ.”n Sage- all dandruff
disappears, falling hair and invr&ng
head cease, your hair is doubly
beauti i ul.
Parisian Sage, sold by Dr. .1. B.
George and at all drug counters, is
just what you need—a large bottle
costs but 50 cents. It surely makes
the hair lustrous and seem twice as
abundant. You cannot be disap
pointed in Parisian Sage.

Wondrous Outlook That Bursts Upon
the View From Parker Pass.
The Parker pass is the most
splendid coign of vantage on Mount
McKinley except the summit. From
an elevation of more than 15,000
feet it overlooks the whole Alaskan
range, and the scope of vision to the
east, to the southeast and to the
northeast, is almost uninterrupted.
Mountain range rises beyond moun
tain range until only snowy sum
mits are visible in the great dis
tance, and one knows that beyond
the last of them lies the blue sea.
The nearby summits, red with gran
ite or black from shale, and gullied
from top to bottom with snow and
ice, the broad highways of the gla
ciers at their feet carrying parallel
moraines that look like giant tram
lines, stand out with vivid distinc
tion. Mount Hunter raises its head
above the lesser peaks. The two
arms of the Muldrow glacier, right
in the foreground, display their
course from their head to ftieir
junction and from their junction to
the terminal snout, receiving their
groaning tributaries from every
evacuating height. The dim, blue
lowlands, now devoid of snow,
stretch away to the northeast, with
threads of stream and patches of
lake that still carry ice along their
banks.
Turning around and looking up
ward, the slabs of granite are like a
gateway through which the Grand
basin opens to our view. The ice of
its glacier sweeps with almost a
cataract curve to its precipitation,
4,000 feet below us, and the Grand
basin, between the two great sum
mits, rises with progressive leaps
of jagged blue serac for five or six
miles, until its upper rim is about
4,000 feet above us. On the right
are the sheer dark cliffs of the
north peak, soaring to an almost
immediate summit 5,000 feet above
the pass. In the midst is the bro
ken, heaving, glittering ice of the
glacier, eager, as one fancied, for its
fall. On the left is just visible the
receding horned snow dome of the
south peak, the highest uplift of
the mountain. And all this splen
dor and diversity yielded itself up
to us at once; that was the most
sensational and spectacular feature
of it.—Hudson Stuck, D. D., in
Scribner’s.
Church Within a Church.
A church built within a church
seems a very unlikely arrangement,
yet such is the case at Covehithe, on
the coast of Suffolk, England. The
church at present in use is built
within the nave of a ruined church
which must in its day have been
very fine, since the present church
scarcely fills half of the old nave.
The old tower remains and is a
landmark for sailors. Doubtless
there was at one time a large popu
lation, but the old village or town
is now at the bottom of the sea. The
church is only a third of a mile
from the aea, from which it is said
to have been at one time three
quarters of a mile away.
Cruel Retort.
Two ladies during a friendly
meeting on the street got to quar
reling about their ages and used
very strong language toward each
other. At last, as if to end the dis
pute, one of them turned away and
said in a very conciliatory tone of
voice: “Let us not quarrel over the
matter any more. I, at least, have
not the heart to do it. I never
knew r who my mother was. She de
serted me when I was a baby, and
who knows but that you may have
been the heartless parent ?”
Origin of “Grass Widow.”
Grass widow means “grace” wid
ow, as opposed to “death” widow’.
The Latin is vidua de gratia; the
French, veuve de grace. A smart
discrimination is “grass”-widow and
“sod” widow. It is said that the
early adventurers in California had
the practice of alluding among
themselves to waives left behind as
“out at grass,” and it is sometimes
suggested that the use of “grass
widow” came this way into exist
ence.— Kansas City Star.
Smallest Book |n the World.
The smallest book in the world
was made in Italy. It is not much
larger than a man's thumb nail. It
is four-tenths of an inch in length,
a quarter of an inch in width and
contains 208 pages, each with nine
lines and from 95 to 100 letters.
The text consists of a letter written
by the inventor of the pendulum
clock to Mme. Christine of Lorraine
in 1615.
Blue Stockings.
“Blue stocking” originates from
a Mr. Stillingfleet, who \’as a favor
ite member of the literary gather
ing in the time of Dr. Johnson and
who always wore blue stockings. If
he happened to be absent all asked,
“Where is our blue stockings ?” and
from this the term for ladies of
literary pretensions was derived.
HUMOR OF THE CLOTH
GOOD STORFES THAT ARE CRED-
ITED TO PROMINENT DIVINES.
The Late Bishop Potter as Rem arts
able for His Wit as for His Elo
quence—Archbishop Magee’s
Humorous Appeal.
Probably one of the prettiest com
pliments ever paid to the fair sex was
that contained in the answer made by
Dr. Potter, bishop of New York, who
was once asked by a lady why, in the
many pictures and studies of angels
exhibited, the angels were always
depicted either as women or as young
men without beards or moustaches.
“Everyone knows,” replied the bishop,
“that women naturally inherit the
kingdom of heaven, but men only get
in by a very close shave.”
This story is related by the Rev.
T. Selby Henrey, vicar of St. George,
Brentford, whose little volume, enti
tled “Attic Salt.” provides many an
illustration of the fact that wit and
appreciation of humor are not the
least prominent characteristics of lead
ing divines. He tells a story of the
late Dr. Creighton, who one received
a book from a second-rate author, to
'whom he replied by return of post, “I
thank you very much for forwarding
to me your book, and I promise you
faithfully that I will not lose any time
in reading it.”
Another gem is the story once told
by Dr. Gore, bishop of Oxford, at his
own expense. “In Birmingham,” he
said, “I once overheard two street
artlbs discussing my appearance. AX
last one said to the other, ‘I tell you
what, Bill—he’s a Highlander what’s
caught cold in his legs.’ ”
It was Archbishop Magee who was
credited with the well-known saying
when a waiter dropped some hot soup
down his neck: “Is there any layman
present who will kindly express my
feelings?” while the following is one
of the best stories told of Archbishop
Temple. A lady of position, sitting
near him at dinner, asked him, in a
most insinuating voice: “My aunt was
prevented at the last moment from
sailing in that ship which foundered
last week. Would you not, bishop,
call that a most providential inter
position?”
“Can’t tell. Didn’t know your aunt!”
Temple said, in his characteristic,
blunt manner.
There is, by the way, an amusing
clerical story in Lady South-wark’s
Reminiscences, lately published. A
Somersetshire rector inquired after a
Bick child who had been very ill.
“Oh, Agnes has recovered,” replied
the woman, very casually, “but*’ —in
heartrending accents —“I’ve lost my
Pig-”
“Oh, how Jhankful you must be
that your child has been spared,”
condoled the visitor.
“Oh, I don’t know about that. Lit
tle Agnes might fiave been a blessed
angel in heaven by now, but pigs is
a dead loss!”—London Tit-Bits.
Sorting the Twins.
Twin brothers who have been called
up for service in a Paris regiment are
so alike that it is impossible to distin
guish between them. The other day
one of the pair was confined to bar
racks, but, by changing his cap, with
its regimental number, for that of Ills
brother, the defaulter was able to pa bs
the guard with impunity whenever
wished to go out. /
The colonel of the regiment has nJw
Issued the following order: “The sol
dier Bonhomme (even number) 4vill
wear his hair as long as the regmla.-
tions, construed with the utmost Ipa
iency, will allow, and will shave p*
beard and moustache. The soldier
Bonhomme (odd number) will
his beard and moustache to grow full
and will have his hair regularly cut as
closely as possible by the regimental
barber.” —Daily Mail.
Husband Boosts Alimony.
The case of a man going into ths
supreme court and consenting to hav®
a separation agreement with his wife
set aside so he will be compelled to
pay her more alimony occurs so sel
dom that when Justice Giegerich at
New York set aside the separation
agreement betwene Samuel Pelz, a
cotton goods merchant at 160 Canal
street, and his wife, Mrs. Rose Peiz, it
aroused some interest.
Mr. and Mrs. Pelz were separated in
1908 under an agreement by which
Pelz paid his wife 55,000 in lieu of all
further alimony. Mrs. Pelz xecently
sued for divorce, naming Fannie Lef
kowitz as corespondent. Pelz thought
his wife was entitled to more alimony
in view of her divorce case and con
sented to an order by Justice Giege
rich directing him to pay SI,OOO ali
mony and SSOO counsel fees.
In a Pinch.
A cadet officer in the Pennsylvania
Military college was reported by a fac
ulty officer for “language,” rather a
severe mark in that austere institu
tion. At the time appointed for the
hearing of “explanations” of marks,
the offending cadet presented htrnalf
before the commandant
"Well, sir, bow did it happen that
you were guilty of using Impropar'la*-
guage while on duty?” the ootonet In
quired.
"Why, sir, as officer of the day I van
inspecting the guard. In handling cm
of the rifles the lock snapped shut m
my finger, and it Just
pinched *hdf out of me.”
Not only wne the mark "taken aG,**’
but the colonel gleefully reported to
the entire corps the cadet
witty eeptenatifin of his offenses*
pineotr*.
