One of These Talented Women la
Sarah Bernhardt and the Other
Ellen Terry.
Two famous grandmothers are dis
tinguished visitors of this country. Re
ferring to these talented ladies the
Rochester Post Express says: "One of
the grandmothers is Mme. Sarah Bern
hardt; the other is Ellen Terry. Both
actresses have reached an age when it
is permissible to retire from active
life; but the French actress is said to
be as energetic as a woman half her
age, w'hiie Ellen Terry is declared to
be as young as ever she was in the
palmy days when she and Henry Irv
ing ruled the theatrical world of Eng
land. Miss Terry has retired from the
stage so far as acting is concerned,
and has taken to lecturing op Shakes
peare's heroines. And who could do
better than she who has played so
many of the womanly women of the
great dramatist? Readers of her
breezy biography know what she
thinks of Portia, Beatrice, Voila, Rosa
land and other famous women of the
tragedies and comedies, but no print
ed page could charm as does the won
derfully expressive features and the
velvet voice of the greatest living
English-speaking actress.”

Why Kick?
Louis Wisna, the Newark artist,
wore a gloomy look on his usually
cheerful face.
“It has just struck me,” he said to
Charles Strasse, “that my shoes don’t
cost me as much as my youngster’s.”
“Then what are you complaining
about?” asked Strasse.
Which Is the Star?
“We are thinking of putting an elec
tric sign over the church.”
‘lt might be a good idea.”
“But there are factions. We can’t
decide whether to feature the minister
ior the soprano of the choir.”
EAGER TO WORK.
Health Regained by Right Food.
The average healthy man or woman
Is usually eager to be busy at some
■useful task or employment.
But let dyspepsia or indigestion get
hold of one, and all endeavor becomes
a burden.
“A year ago, after recovering from
an operation,” writes a Michigan lady,
“'ray stomach and nerves began to give
me much trouble.
"At times my appetite was vora
cious, but when indulged, indigestion
followed. Other times I had no appe
itite whatever. The food I took did not
nourish me and I grew weaker than
ever.
"I lost interest in everything and
wanted to be alone. I had always had
good nerves, but now the merest trifle
would upset me and bring on a violent
headache. Walking across the room
was an effort and prescribed exercise
was out of the question.
“I had seen Grape-Nuts advertised,
hut did not believe what I read at the
time. At last when it seemed as if I
Was literally starving, I began to eat
-Grape-Nuts.
“I had not been able to work for a
year, but now after two months on
Crape-Nuts I am eager to be at work
again. My stomach gives me no trou
hle now, my nerves are steady as ever,
and intejest in life and ambition have
jeome back with the return to health.”

Finds Our;
Wilbur P *
MA called me to her day be
fore yesterday and sed she
wanted me to .help her do
something.
She had a peece of pen
cil in her hand that was
about a inch long and
looked as If she had chewed it to
sharpen it, and she had a lot of notes
made on the back of a bill from the
dressmaker.
Henry, she said, I am puzzled to
deth to kno what to give your pa and
your Unkel Willyum for Chrismus. I
do wish you would kind of pump them
and see what they would like to hav,
and then tell me, without^ giving it
away to them what you are trying to
find out.
All right, ma, 1 told her, arid tried
to get a peek at her list to see if she
had me down for the maggiezine re
volver 1 want.
But she folded up the paper arid put
it away.
So that night when pa and Unkel
Bill was sitting in the librarey talkin
about the way senator Tillman had
better look out or he will be playing
in a drama that has a press agent, or
else he will be crackin a black snake
whip around in Unkel Toms Cabben, i
ast pa what he thot was the right
kind of a Chrismus present.
You otto be satisfide with what you
get, my young man, he sed, without
coming around and hintin.
I aint hintin, 1 told him. I just won
dered what your idee would be about
one for yourself.
Grate Scott! he sed. Has it come
to this? It is bad enuff to hafto fork
over for the fool things yure ma buys
for me without bavin to pay for some
thing you get for me.
I dont want to get you anything, 1
sed. I just want to get yure idee
about what you want.
Unkel Bill spoke up and sed most
men sould tell what they wanted bet
ter by tellin what they dont want.
What would you like to hav, unkel
Bill?! ast him.
WelL now, he sed', thare is lots of
things i would be glad to see in my
stockin on Christmus morning. If I
was a woman of course i would yern
for dimund bracelets and necklaces
and rings and gold wotches that 1
could pin on me somewhare whare a
pickpocket could get them without
pickin my pocket. Thare never was
a pickpocket that could pick a wom
an’s pocket, xcept one that lived in
Nob York, and he had been marrid
forty times, and he confessed that
the reeson he got marrid so menny
times was just becos he wanted to

mas.”
lurn whare a woman keeps her pock
et. It was a matter of profeshnul
pride wltii him, becos he sed thare
was no profit in pickin a womans
pocket when all you got was a bunch
of samples and a button hook and a
powder rag and betwene thirty and
forty sents.
But 1 dont see what pickin pockets
has to do with Chrismus presents, I
sed.
You wate till you get marrid, p»
spoke up reel quick.
Finelly pa and Unkle Bill thay got
me to tell them about ma astin me to
find out what they wanted, and then
they laffed and laffed, and Unkel Bill
sed it was a refreshin indication of
the change that was takin place when
a woman even thought of thlnkln
about what you wanted. He sed they
usually went ahed and got what they
wanted you to want.
You tell your ma, pa sed, that as
neer as you can lern what 1 want is
more hair on my hed, my wisdum
tooth filled, and rofikkln chares that
1 wont bump Into with my legs when
1 get up in the mornin.
And if she asts you what 1 want,
unkel Bill sed, you tell her that 1 am
noncommittal to a degree, but that
you think i would prefer a tobacko
pouch that has sashay powder inside
the lining, a collar and cuff box with
pink satin inside of it, a cigar cutter
that i can hang on my watch chane
whenever i want to feel pertickerly
ashamed of myself, a silver handled
pensil that she can borrow frum me
the day after Chrismus and never
giv back to me, and a smokin set
made out of hammered brass that 1
can sell to somebuddy for finger
bowls.
That's rite, pa sed.
But the best Chrismus present for
man, unkel Bill sed, is to pick cut a I
fifty dollar present for him, that hp
would hafto pay for when the bill
comes In, and then not get it.

“Mamma,” asks the little boy, “how
can Santa Claus get into our flat,
when we haven’t any chimney—noth

"He will probably slip in by the
basement door, darling.”
"It’s all off then,” says the Irtd, with
a surprising vigor in the use «i slang.
“That janitor will put him out cf busi

HER ONE BIG WISH.

The Human Heart
The heart is a wonderful double pump, through the
action of which the blood stream is kept sweeping
round and round through the body at the rate of seven
miles an hour. “ Remember this, that our bodies
will not stand the strain of over-work without good,
pure blood any more than the engine can run smooth
ly without oil.” After many years of study in the
active practice of medicine, Dr. R. V. Pieroe found
that when the stomach was out of order, the blood
impure and there were symptoms of general break
down, a tonic made of the glyceric extract of certain
roots was the best corrective. This he called
