m a JUDGE’S OPINION OF WOMEN ■... ; ■ -a-^^-rTT-rr.- '«:■-• - - --r w&M Which is the truthful sex, or, to modify, which is the less truthful se.x? Magistrate Mott sayg: " “There’s this difference 'between , • a man and a woman: "When a worn- . an thinks a thing is so, she is ready to swear to it. But it’s different j with a man. He doesn’t swear .to j anything unless he kfiows it.” . I Wait till .you hear the howl that goes up from the all potential She 1 when the full force of the magis- j traio’s remarks strikes in. She will- ; ipg to.swear to a think! She not , sure of licr facts! She an untrust- f worthy witness! Wow! Magistrate Mott has in the past .j said and done things which have ; caused the man among us to name J him anathema, but until this utter ance he hadn’t succeeded in draw ing down upon his aged head the wrath of the feminine. But a storm approachcth. One needs not to look at the barometer or to read the weather reports furnished by Broth er Moore to be apprised of a disturb ance en route. It comes right down to this: Is woman intentionally or unintention ally a liar ? Let’s hear from the sex.—New York Telegram. He Took tho Deor. Not long ago Professor N.' R. Leonard, who was called recently to tho presidency of tho mining college at Butte, Mon., feeling indisposed, consulted his physician, a German, very scientific and acknowledged as one of the leading men in hia pro fession in Montana. The doctor advised Mr. Leonard to work less at the desk, exercise more outdoors and take beer as a tonic, something tho professor had never cared for. The doctor met his patient a few days later as he was leaving the col lege and stopped to inquire how he was feeling. , “About the same,” replied the professor. “Did you take beer as I directed ?” inquired the physician. “Yes,” responded the professor; “I took it a few times, but it be came so nauseous that I had to dis continue it.” “How much did you take ?” “Why, I bought a whole bottle and took a spoonful before each meal,” answered the professor. An Uneolved Problom. Mrs. Emmons Blaine of Chicago, whoso scheme of employing servants by relayB and only for certain pre scribed hours attracted such atten tion a few months ago, has had to give it up. Report has it that after faithfully testing tho plan Mrs. Blaine retired-to the country this summer, a perfect wreck—utterly worn out through her efforts to solve the servant question in a way hailed by theorists as the only salva tion both for maid and mistress. “Somewhat recuperated,” says the New York Sun, “Mrs. Blaine will venture back f to Chicago this win ter, but her house, the scene of the late domestic experiments, will re main closed. She lias taken *air apartment. Her meals will be taken at a restaurant, and whatever serv ice she requires will bo performed by the attendants of the apartment house. Tfc begins to look as if the only way to get rid of the servant question was to get rid of the serv ants.” Man’s Body In a Shark., Thp other day a Carnarvon man, who is engaged on the Liverpool steamship Canada, writing home to ibis relatives, referred to the capture of a big sharks at East Lond'on, South Africa. When ripped open, , the monster, ■which measured eight een feet long, was • found to hqive quite recently swallowed a ^soldier bodily. The man’s body and uni form were intact save for a small portion of one shoulder, which had been cut off.—London Globe. Health and Beauty. A poor complexion is usually the result of a torpid liver or ir regular action of the bowels. Un less nature’s refuse is carried off it will surely cause impure blood, t' . Pimples, boils and other eruptions follow. This is nature’s method of throwing off the poisons which the bowels failed to remove. De- Witt’s Little Early Risers are world famous for remedying this condition. They stimulate the liv er and promote regular and heal thy action of the Jbowels but never cause errinimr. cramns nr diefani* . A Common Governor. The Kansas Gity Journal says, that some of the young women com posing An orchestra visited the Kan sas statehouse the other day. They Were wandering aimlessly about when a gentleman, observing that they were strangers, took them into the office of the governor and in£ro-r dueed them to that dignitary. Gov ernor Stanley is an adept at making people feel at ease, and he soon had the young women laughing and jok ing at.a great rate, but the most amusing thing of all did not occur until the party had passed from the governor’s office into the corridor. There one of the girls commenced to jump up and down and said ex citedly: “Glory, glory! Now I can go home and tel! papa that at last I have seen a live governor. But,” she continued more soberly, “I did nor expect to find a governor so common that ho would meet people without his uniform on.” Fruit at Meals. Wo put ripe fruit on our tables as a “dessert,” as,.a finish .wherewith to round off a repast already suffi ciently substantial. In reality it ought to be allowed for as part of that meal. Ripe fruit rarely if ever digests properly when eaten after other food. Its place in the dietary is undoubtedly in between more sol id repasts. Cooked fruit should form part of a course or possibly the entire portion of the sweet course at luncheon or dinner and, indeed, at breakfast also, if you will, for with many people cooked fruit is never better liked than at the table set for the first meal of the day. Sweet Potato Pineapple. Sweet potato pineapple is a pret ty way to serve this popular vege table. Boil, peel and mash four or five good sized sweet potatoes. Add one large tablespoonful of butter, one tablespoonful of very light brown sugar, one teaspoonful of lilt, one pinch each of mace and grated nutmeg. Mold this into pine apple shape and place on a buttered tin. With tho tip of a teaspoon make tiny depressions to resemble the dots in a pineapple. Into each one put a wee bit of butter. Light ly brown in a hot oven. If you wish, you can make a small pineapple for each one at the table. What He Waa Told. “Say,” said the funny man as he paused in front of the depositors’ window in a downtown bank, “are you the teller ?” “Yes,” was the reply. “What can I do for you, sir ?” “Oh,” replied the f. m., “I merely wished to ask what you tell.” “I tell people who have no busi ness hero to trot along to the far thest extremity and be seated,” re joined tho weary clerk.—Chicago News. Reforestation. Connecticut is the latest to take up the question of reforestation. Many states have awakened to this fact, but the damage already has been done, and it will be a hard matter to find a remedy.—Los An geles Express. Per Cent. There is a fascination about big .prod s to a business mail; But tho conservative and cautious tra der prefers to have the lesser per cent, of interest and the larger per cent, of safety iu hifji invest ments. There is no business man who would not consider it a sound proposition to invest in an inter prise iu which absolutely loss was impossible and which offered nin ety-eight chances in a hundred of a rich profit. The statistics of cures effected by Dr. Pierce’s Gol den Medical Discovery shows that ninety-eight per cent, of cases of “weak lungs” can be absolutely cured. Almost if not all forms of physical weakness may be trac ed to starvation. Starvation saps the strength. The body is just as much starved when the stomach cannot extract nutrition from the food, it receives as when .there *is no food. “Weak lunge,” bron chial affections, obstinate coughs, call for nourishment. “Golden Medical Discovery” supplies that nourishment in its most condens ed and assimilable form. It makes “weak lungs” strong, by strengthening the stomach and organ* of digestion which digests and.djetribute* the food, and by increasing the supply of pure blood. Boys, Remember Thlo. Sharp eyed men of business take note of a boy’s, general appearance in making up their estimate of what he is worth. A straightforward, manly bearing will help any lad to get his way in the world, while the haphazard sort of a way usually sug gests to the observer a correspond ing character. Manliness is not a garment you can put on and off'like your Sunday coat. It must have its foundation in the heart or it will be a flimsy sham that will^ deceive nobody.—Golden Days. Tommy at School. » Visitor—Well, Tommy, how are you gettipg on at school? Tommy (agpd eight)—Pretty well. I ain’t doing as well as some of the othervboys, though. I can sfand on my head, but I have to put my feet against the fepce. I want to do it without being near the fence at all, and I guess I can after awhile.— Exchange. Up So High.
