MOST UNWILLING BRIDE.
A beautiful bride, who changed
her mind at the altar and fled, was
pursued, captured and brought back
to the church, where the ceremony
was performed. As the couple about
to be married stood before the altai
in the village church of Kazantwip.
in Russia, the bride, Mile. Lebedew,
one of the most beautiful girls of the
district, suddenly tore off her veil
and shouted, "1 leave him. He is too
ugly. I don't want to marry him."
Mile. Lebedew then ran out of the
church, leaving the friends and rela-
tives aghast. She was followed by
the best man and another friend of
the bridegroom, and quickly caught.
Despite her protests, she was brought
back to the church, where the village
priest, unmoved, began the wedding
ceremony. Mile. Lebedew struggled
to get away again, but she was held
tightly by the bridegroom's friends.
Finally, tired of the struggle, she
consented to say "yes." and the knot
was tied.

FILLS GAP MECHANICALLY.
New York's Interborough Rapid
Transit company has perfected a me-
chanical gap-filling device which will
be used at subway stations on
curve. It consists of a grated seg-
ment of the platform which is thrust
forward, filling the gap between the
car and the edge of the platform, the
movement being made just before the
train comes to a stop. The grating
remains in this position until the
train has started and moved a dis-
tance of seven or eight feet. The
gap filler is operated by elech-o-pneo
matic cylinder action.
In spite of the fact that ignorance
is bliss, a lot of people are contin
ually trying to educate us#
tures.
A pack of cards was provided for
each of the eight hundred invited as
guests and it is believed the game
will spread far and near.
Mrs. Van Rensselaer believes the
game cannot be used for gambling.

Water the Basis of an Extraordinarily
Large Number of Figures
of Speech.
Probably there is nothing under
the sun which is the basis of so largp
a number of figures of speech as
water. ,
A poor argument "won't hold wa-
ter," a babbler is "a leaky vessel," a
half-drunken man is "half-seas
over," "fishing in troubled waters"
is another name for getting into diffi-
culty; "still waters run deep" is a
hint that your quiet and demure per-
son has more in him than the world
supposes; if a man is in a bad pre-
dicament he is in "hot water," and
disappointment is a "wet blanket."
Of a rejected suitor it is said that
"cold water is thrown on his hopes."
the hungry man's "mouth waters,''
the strengthless are "weak as water,"
sometimes it "rains" blessings: when
FEMINIST CARD GAME IS NEW
Philadelphia Social Leader Spends «
Small Fortune Designing New
Pack of Cards.
At the big reception given by Mrs.
John King Van Rensselaer at hei
Philadelphia home, a new card game
came into existence. "Women Are
Trumps." is the title of the newest
pastime and it is related distinctly
to the feminist movement in which
Mrs. Van Rensselaer i6 deeply inter-
ested.
For the production of the new
game a small fortune was expended.
Fifty-two cards compose the pack
with which it is played, and the de-
signs, skillfully executed, are of in-
finite meaning. Women at theii
work are depicted and the orna-
ments of ancient princesses, the robes
of medieval queens and the tablets of
a people of early Egypt passed un-
der the scrutiny of craftsmen en-
gaged to produce the cards and inci-
dents in the life of a queen who ruled
two thousand years ago were made
the basis of some of the game's fea-
"afloat," speculators are often
"swamped," many persons find it im-
possible to "keep their heads above
water," and often we have to ac-
knowledge that we are "all at sea."
HEZEKIAH AND CANCER CURE.
It is evident that medical science,
in its determination to master dis-
ease, has found in radium a powerful
weapon against cancer, and th<j call
upon the government to retain it*

proposition of distinguished physi-
cians to aid the general government
in a plan to chcapen the substana
and universalize its treatment if
beautiful in the extreme. Ilezekiah
king of .Tudah, who lived 700 veart
B. C., had a growth on his body
which may well have been a cancer
called in the record a boil. It wa*
divine power that wrought the cure

"And Isaiah said. Take a lump ot
figs.' And they took and laid it on
the boil, and he recovered." (II
