Mark Twain and a party of frlenda
recently went to vlalt the atudfo of a
young sculptor who U coming rapidly
into public notice One of the piece*
which waa admired greatly by the ma-
jority of the party was the figure of a
young woman colling up ber hair.
Matk listened to the encomiums iu
silence. and when urged fur an «•«
presslon of opinion said slowly:
"It la beautiful, but It Is not true to
nature."
All expressed their surprise at thia
unexpected verdict and demanded his
reaaous.
"She ought#to have her mouth full
of hairpins," replied Tom Sawyer's
father.
Her Experience.
Letty was a little colored girl whose
chief occupation was the bringing of
water from a distant spring. This
was very much to her discomfort, for
the summons to fill the empty water
bucket called her often from her
play.
One day her young mlstresg was
giving ner a lesson in Bible history,
the subject being Noah and the flood.
"Letty," she said, "what did Noah
do when he found that the water was
all gone?"
I^tty, who had been giving scant at
tention to the story, replied with
sigh:
"I spec' he sent after mo'."

Snake in a Beer-Barrel.
A party of foreigners tapped a keg
of beer at Lake Altoona, Pa., but
could not get- the fluid through the
spigot. Investigation disclosed the
fact that the bunghole was stopped up
by a snake. The reptile must have
crawled into the keg while it was ly-
ing empty on the ground, and was
drowned when the keg was filled.
Rest and Sleep.
Few escape those miseries ef win-
ter—a bad cold, a distressing cough.
Many remedies are recommended, but
the one quickest and best of all is
Simmon's Cough Syrup. Soothing and
healing to the lungs and bronchial
passages, it stops the cough at once
and gives you welcome rest and peace-
ful sleep.
Comforting.
Jones (sick)—My dear, what will
you do if I should die.
Mrs. Jones—Is your insurance all
paid up?"
Jones—Yes, dear.
Mrs. Jones—I'd have the loveliest

"It Knocks thf Itch."
It may not cure all your ills, but it
does cure one of the worst. It cures
any form of itch ever known—no mat-
ter what it's called, where the sensa-
tion is "itch," it knocks it. Eczema,
ringworms, are cured by one box. It's
guaranteed, and its name is Hunt's
Cure.
His Reason.
The Pied Piper had just charmed all
the children into the mountain.
"So the fatheA of the families can
have a good time in the country," he
explained.
Herewith there were some who sus-
pected a put-up job.—Harper's Bazar.

nt his error that she smiled, looking
up at him.
"Not at all." alio said, tnon You've

"Why, no I have!" he exclaimed,

awkwardness of tho •Ituation. lie

know—"
"I am not nearly so stupid as 1
look," she interrupted.
"I beg your pardon! Of course—a—
it must be quite obvious." Ouee more
he was all confusion: but this time, he
floundered on of himself. "I wonder
where she could be* I was to meet
her here, you know—"
"If your are as late as you aeemed
to think you were, she has probably
gone. I quite know how she must
have felt,' she added. #
"Oh! You're waiting for some one."
It was half a question left uncom-
pleted.
"You're not nearly so stupid as—"
"As I look? I hope not!"
"No, no—as you might be." There
was a pause. "But your dinner," ahe
suggested.
"Ah, yes; the dinner! I had forgot-
ten." He looked about him. "Hut
there is no one to help me eat the
dinner! I can't.dine alone," he added,
plaintively. " 'Pon my word,.it's ^too
bad! It is a good dinner—I ordered
it myself." *
Finally, he looked up unexpectedly,
as if he had reached a solution of the
difficulty. "Won't you join me?"
Her eyes appeared to be drawn to
the blank houses across the way; she
said nothing. At last she laughed
gayly.
"You say it is a good dinner?" sfie
asked.
"A very good dinner," he replied,
.solemnly.
"I am quite hungry—" she wavered.
"That settles it!' He gathered to-,
gether his hat and gloves and stood
up, bowing. For a moment she hesi-
tated, then she, too, arose.
"The die is cast!" she declared, with
mock gravity, as she preceded him
into the dining-room.
A waiter hastened to right two
chairs which had been tilted against
a table flear one of the windows. She
threw back her wrap and revealed an
elaborate evening gown, against which
were pinned some orchids. One of
them had broken; she lifted it from
the others and placed it on the table.
When she drew off her long gloves, he
glanced curiously at her fingers. There
were no rings.
The two finished their oysters in
silence—the sconventional atmosphere
jf the dining-room threw the proceed-
ing into a somewhat less favorable
light. He felt the embarrassment of
the situation, and his hospitable in-
stinct deplored it. .
I say, you know," he began, "it real-
ly is no funeral, save for the oysters;
we must talk, and if I talk I've got to
call you something."
The humor of the affair came home
to her again, and she laughed with-
out reserve.
"Very well," she said at last, "call
me 'Gay'—it seems to be appropriate.
And you?"
'Since the name must fit, you might
call me 'Tristram,' " he said. "I fear
I am a sad companion, at best."
"Are you sure the name is not a
mistake for Trismegistus?'"
He raised his eyebrows.
"Where did my lady learn that?" he
asked.
"I'm not nearly so—" she began.
"That has been said. '.he interfered,
peremptorily.
"If I am not to say what has been
said." she replied, "I had best keep
silence at once. There is nothing new
under the sun, you know."
"Do you know Tom Moore?" he
asked.
" "The time I've lost in wooing—',"
she chanted. "Don't quote that; it's
uncomplimentary."
"But he knew how to be flattering,
too. I assure you:

was wise I wonder how we should
seem to others. If Ihey knew the dr
qpmstsnco* of our being here, to-
gether?"
Feminine query! Now, I should be
rather tempted to ask how we must ul-
timately aeem to »1»cli other—after-
ward. Mine la a question more apt
to be anawered, at any rate. Yet,
there wu* a formula for all that sort
of thing laid down long ago—you may
recognixe it: Judge not that ye be
not Judged. For with what Judgment
ye Judge, ye*shall be judged ' A little
redundunt In style, but right In spirit,
don't you think!"
"Yes. Right in spirit and right In
practice—but are you quite sure you
believe in it yoursalf?" She was unac-
countably serious. He rested his el-
bows on the table at either side his
plate and regarded her, wonderingly.
"Yes," he said, slowly; "quite sure."
"I think I believe that to be the best
rule of conduct In the world," she
mused; "It would obviate so much
scandal!"
He laughed.
She continued. "But It has nothing
to do with us, has it? We are both
eminently sensible people, who under-
stand well how meaningless all of this
is." She waved her hand to Include
him, herself and the dinner.
"If I were unkind, I should say that
I understand perfectly well how mean-
ingless that is," he rejoined, quickly.
"You are unkind."
"I am speaking the truth—it is*often
the same thing. Sensible people, in-
deed! I scorn your characterization.
But suppose we are not sensible pec?
pie," he objected to her look of sur-
prised incredulity.
"Then we've no business to be doing
this sort of thing." She shook her
finger at him, with an air of pretended
severity.
Ho selected a cigarette from a silver
case and puffed it in the flame at a
candle held by the waiter. He stared
at the glowing fire in silence, then
flicked the ash into a tray at his el-
bow.
She shivered. Something has
chilled me, I fear. Would you mind
throwing my wrap about me?"
He hastened to comply, unreasona-
bly thankful for the diversion. As his
fingers touched her shoulders, ^she
shivered again.
"Thank you,' she said. "Perhaps
when I drink my coffee—"
"Won't you have a liqueur?" he
urged, solicitously. "Stupid of me!
That's just the thing! But I cannot
presume to select a liqueur for you;
one's spouse and one's liqueur, I sup-
pose, one chooses for oneself."
"Yes," she replied, smiling at his
conceit, "but you have done remarka-
bly well with the rest of the repast.
It* was a good dinner—as advertised
and I thank you. I prefer Char-
treuse—yellow." She set down her
coffee cup and pushed back her chair.
Tristram called the waiter and gave
the order. Gay watched him anxious-
ly. playing with the orchid on the cor-
ner of the table. She arose, smiling.
"Will you excuse me?" she asked.
"Yes," he said, returning her smile.
She threaded her way*, gracefully,
among the tables. He watched her
go, puzzled, pleased. Her coat flared
out at either side as she walked, and
her gown trailed sinuously behind her,
along the carpet. As she disappeared
through one of the doorways he
sighed. She was remarkably beauti-
ful, he thought, witty, clever, charming.
He lit another cigarette and speculated
sentimentally upon her character, and
the future.
The waiter brought the tiny glasses
of Chartreuse, at last, and Tristram
started from bis reverie. She had not
returned. • He noticed with a certain
disquiet that there remained of her
only the broken flower: she had car-
ried her gloves. He looked about the
room, but she was not in sight. A
poignant misgiving seized him. He
hurried to the doorway through which
she bad gone She was nowhere in
the corridor. He crossed to the Turk
ish room and peered in. The apart-
ment was deserted.
"Gay! Gay!" he cried. He ran

"I am now 80 years old. and three '
years ago I was taken with an at-
tack^of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding I
and protruding. The doctor said the
only help for me was to go to a ;
hospital and be operated on. I tried
several remedies for months but did i
not get much help. During this time
sores appeared which changed to a |
terrible itching eczema. Then 1 began
to use Cutlcura Soap, Ointment, and
Pills, injecting a quantity of Cutlcura
Ointment with a Cutlcura Suppository
Syringe. It took a month of this
treatment to get me in a fairly healthy
state and then I treated myBelf once
a day for three months and, after that,
once or twice a week. The treatments
I tried took a lot of money, and it is
fortunate that I used Cutlcura. J. II.
