THE FAMILY VICTIM.
Having Made a Fortune, This Old
Man Is Now Under Discipline.
Every morning at 9 o’clock precise¬
ly an old gentleman, walking with the
aid of a stout cane, enters the side
door of a Broadway saloon in the
Nineties and takes a seat in a corner
where he is comparatively safe from
observation. The bartender, without
asking questions, carries to him a ci
gar and a drink of whisky, and the
old gentleman smokes and sips in ap
parent contentment, Just before the
cigar is finished he takes another
drink. Then he walks slowly down
to Riverside Drive and sits in a shady
spot until lunch ttme, when he enters
a fine mansion near by and is seen
more until the following morning.
That’s a funny case.” said the bar¬
tender, as the old gentleman went out
after Ills customary cigar and drinks
"He’s a retired hanker and lives in
luxury. He has a large family and
they have everything they wish for.
But the old man Is looked upon as
a son of necessary evil about the
house He Is not permitted to smoke
In the house, and as for drinking
why, any member of the family would
have a fit if they saw anything of an
alcoholic nature on the premises.
“Now that he has made the money
which supports them, they relegate
the old man to the rear, and he Is at
that age where he hasn't spirit to re¬
bel. So he comes in here every day
and ‘sneaks’ his drink and smoke and
goes back home contented Ain’t, this
a queer world?"—New York Press
Motor Care and Dust.
After experiments with the motor
car which he uses daily, the chief sur¬
veyor of Essex finds that at a speed
not exceeding .ten miles an hour a
motor car creates comparatively lit
tie dust upon a properly made road,
hut at fifteen to twenty miles an hour,
especially with heavy cars, the nul¬
sance ls Intolerable. The expense of
treating the main roads of the coun¬
try outside the urban districts with
tar macadam would be £1,611,000.-—

A change to the right kind of food
can lift one from a sick bed. A lady in

“Last spring I became bedfast with
severe stomach trouble accompanied by
sick headache. I got worse and worse
until I became so low I could scarcely
retain any food at all. although I tried
every kind I had become complete

death, till one day my husband trying
to find somethinglcouid retain brought
home some Grape-Nuts. with
“To my surprise the food agreed
me. digested perfectly and without dis
tress. I began to gain strength at
once, my flesh (which had been flabby)
grew firmer, my health improved in
every way and every day, and in a very
few weeks I gained 20 pounds in
weight. I liked Grape-Nuts so well
that for 4 months I ate no other food,
and always felt as well satisfied after
eating as if I had sat down to a fine
tanquet. miserable
“I had no return of the
sick stomach nor of the headaches that
I used to have when I ate other food.
I am now a weii woman, doing all my
own work again, and feel that life is
worth living.
“Grape-Nnts food has been a godsend
to my family; It surely saved my life

Kunzite is a new, semi-precious
mauve stone and a novelty in Jewelry.
There are zlrsons that loolt like brown
diamonds, and many varieties of green
stcfaes, including apple-green chryso
phase, perl, tourmalines and olivines,
pink sapphires, white topazes, Laba
dor. Jade and onvx, all of which are
being made up in the most artistic
fashion. Strangest of all, however, is
the water stone of Uruguay; it is semi¬
transparent and white and in its cen¬
ter is water that moves about as the
stone is moved. The fashion of wear¬
ing inexpensive colored beads, imita¬
tions of semi-precious stones, or with
no pretense of Imitating anything, is
! « artistic fad. There are both round
j and oval lilac and heliotrope beads of
j necklace length that are pretty with
j mauve gowns, and green ones for

pr mull blouse over a lilac skirt and
coat and liat trimmed with lilacs is
enhanced by a 'short string of iilac
hued crystal beads. For those who

How a Blind Man Finds His Wa>
About the Busy City.
There Is a blind man living in the
heart of Now York who walks nearly
every day from his home to a little
restaurant in Canal street. The dis¬
tance each way is from eighteen to
twenty blocks, according to his route,
and to see him sauntering carelessly
along one would never suspect his in
flrmlty. Whon some one asked him
how he managed to find his way ho
.said:
“When a man has his sight the
smell of the streets are all mixed
up, but when he is blind he learnB
to separate them. The odors of the
shops when the doors are open these
tint' days are almost, ns plain to my
nose as the signs used to be ovor the
doors. Some of them you might
never notice. Take a dry goods store,
for instance. It smells of cloth. Iron
and tin have smells of their own, ana
I can tell a hardware store irnmedi
ntcly. I pass two book stores nearly
every day, and I scent them yards off
by 1he old books. Then there are a
great many other indescribable odors
by which I know this place and that.
“Of ji course, course my my fet are my . principal i
guide, and I’ve been over the grown a
so often that 1 have learned every
inequality Jiy heart, But I couldn’t
get along with either nose or feat
alone. They work together, and when
one fails the other helps out. Bc
tween them they make a very good
substitute for eyes.
"Tho secret of my stepping out Is
that I’ve learned how to step. People
who ean see hurl themselves forward
like locomotives, That’s why the
shock is always so unexpectedly vio¬
lent when you collide with another
person. But I put no extra power
whatever in my movements, and if
the toe of my shoe touches some un¬
known object I stop stock still im
aedlately.”—New York Press.
