Newly Engaged
By Florence Wolff
Air. Teddy left her assembled
guests to answer a call outside. As
she walked Into the ball two telegrams
were handed to her. Blank amazement
spread over ber face as she read
tSem.
"Dick and I have quarreled. Have
to withdraw f om your bouse party.
Sorry It Is In our honor. Keep It hid
den Lie if necessary. He's sure to
apologize. Trlxy."
lluHtlly she tore open the second en
velope. "Trlxy and I have scrapped. Unable
to be with you. Trump up something
to tell your friends. Don't let the
truth out. Expect to make up soon.
She's sure to be sorry. Dick."
"Well, now what am I going to
do?"
In her distress Mrs. Teddy Ann
open the screen door with a bang and
went out on the veranda to calm ber
nerves and to concoct a story to tell
her guests.
"Just the thing!" Her eyes danced
as she ran down the steps to meet
the young man plodding up the walk
under the burden of two suit cases.
"Hurry up, Bob! You must come to
my sitting room right away." And
she added, as she fairly hauled htm
uo there. "You simply must help me
out of a perfectly awful bole. Just
w ilt a moment!"
She dashed from the room, and as
quickly came back, bringing with her
a girl, fresh and dainty In a white
lingerie dress. Her dark hair fell In
loose soils about ber neck as Mrs.
Teddy unceremoniously pushe d her
Into a chair. The young people ex
changed nods of recognition, too
amazed to speak, Bob concentrating
his gaze on tbe girl's hair, apparently
fascinated.
"Emily, Bob," Mrs. Teddy was
thinking rapidly, "you're both good
friends of Trlxy and Dick, aren't
you?"
Two beads bobbed simultaneously.
"Then I'll tell you. They've squab
bled! Ob, no, nothing serious," as she
saw the expression on their faces,

"What!" Emily's face was rosy red.
"I'll do It!" Bob cast an admiring
glance at Emily. That young woman
tilted up ber nose, but grew redder
still.
Mrs. Teddy took In the situation
with a gasp. Her motives became
double.
"Do It for Trlxy's sake, dear," Bhe
coaxed, and without waiting for Em

appeared. "Why. Bob. I didn't say 'yes!'" Em
ily pouted.
"You're In for It now, Emily. Buck
up and face the 6uns!" Bob's eyes
twinkled mischievously.
"Oh. Bob, Isn't It awful! Can't we
back out?" There was par.lo In her
voice.
"I'm afraid not"
"Why are you staring at me?" she
demanded as distinctly as she could,
with several hair pins between her
teeth.

The Old Lady
Ralph A. Graves, one of the dra
matic critics of Washington, is a sport
through and through. When he does
anything, he puts It over with all the
frills on it, despising expense, and de
siring only the best there Is and not
neglecting to get it In the best shape
possible.
He struck Baltimore one evening,
and decided to send some flowers to
young lady. After scouting around,
be located a florist's shop, Into which
he Jumped with an order for about
twenty dollars worth of the finest. He
let loose of that twenty dollar note
with great monchalance, flipping It
across the counter to the old woman
who was the only clerk In the place
at tue time. She shoved the money In
tie cash drawer, and extended the
flowers toward Graves.

them to this address as soon as pos

replied the old lady. "Why don't you

warn you that engaged couples gener
ally show a little affection toward each
other once In awhile, so I may have
to kiss you!"
"You don't look too unhappy over
the prospect!" she answered cyni
cally. "I'm not," said the shameless youth.
He looked ct ber hair. It was colled
low. Self-consciously she raised her
hands to It and ran out of the room.
A very flustered young lady and a
very gay young man received the con
gratulations of the guests congre
gated on the porch Ave minutes
later.
"I wouldn't mind being In his boots."
Emily heard one of the young men
mutter.
She laid her hand on Bob's arm.
"Come away," she whispered ap
peallngly. The newly engaged pair sat down
on the sofa, hut after a moment Em
ily Jumped up and ran to a seat at
the other end of the room.
"What's the matter?" asked Bob.
"I'm afraid!" gasped Emily, blush
ing. "Afraid of what?"
'That you'll have to to kiss me If
we sit at such close quarters!" Emily
blurted out
"I may, If somebody should peek
through the window. You see, It would
be my duty; otherwise, they'd think
we were fighting, and rightly, too, es
pecially if you sit in cne corner of the
room and I in another." Suddenly his
voice became Imperious. "Emily!
Come here quickly! Somebody l
looking now!"
Emily mechanically obeyed, drop
ping limply on tbe sofa.
"There's some one coming Into tbe
room ! "
"Ob!" groaned Emily, and burled
her face on his shoulder; but only be
cause she was nervous.
Let -us eo out among them; then
they won't expect us to do so much of
this."
She rose a little stiffly, and he fol
lowed her. In the doorway they col
lided with Mrs Teddy, who was frown
ing ,-ver a telegram.
"Now we're In a pickle Tor sure!
She handed them the bit of yellow
paper.

Tbe three stood and looked at eacn

down stairs:
"Oh. Mrs. Teddy, where are you? Do
come here!"
"Do something! Hide, evaporate or
elope!" she gasped over her shoulder
as she rushed away.
Tbe two deserted ones stood motion
less In the middle of the hall.
"Bob." said Emily at last, with a
start. "Bob, do you know you have
still got your arm around me, and
we're not engaged any longer?"
The screen door swung open and
they heard Mrs. Teddy's voice.
"Why, of course, you misunderstood
the names these are Trlxy and Dick.
The other two were Emily Waldron
and Bob Warlck. Yes, they Just be

on recklessly. "They are very demon

by about every one of Lynn's 400.000

Water Commissioner Thomas Camp

every seven dayt Is enough.
Discussion of the subject Is not con

come a burning Issue throughout tbe
state.
Tbe water supply at Lynn became

city's Interests, asked that the citizens
content themselves with one bath a

water commissioner, and be Increased
the bathing privilege to twice weekly
He did so grudgingly, however, and
still Insists that one ba'h a week
would be sufficient of ccurse. taking
Into consideration the condition that
exists.
Chairman Michael Ward of the
board of health said he approved of
the suggestion. He felt that the com
paratively few who had become accus
tomed to the luxury of a dally bath
should sacrifice their wishes for tbe
good of the many. Their abrogation
would be for a good purpose, he said.
and redound to their credit.
Chairman Ward went a bit farther
and expressed the belief that many of
the politicians at the city ball should
practice tbe self-denial asked for. lie
said that they were devoteea of tbe
dally bath and declared that now was
the time for the city fathers and other
public officials to show their mettle
by putting aside their custom of bath
ing dally and restraining themselves
for the welfare of the public
Chairman Ward was asked point
blank If he batbed dully, but he would
not reply. He is, however, the most
outspoken of tbe city department

should bathe infrequently for a while.

that twice a week would be too In

of people have been wondering Just

many people are adopting tbls novel

L. Halg, a dealer In glowworms,
at bis farm at Newdlgate, Surrey,

"The Idea of using glowworms as
regular Ulumlnant decorations occur
red to me some little time ago, and
It is certainly taking well wi:b the

"I charge 50 cents a dozen for
glowworms exclusive of postage, and

Hongkong. For hundreds of years
China was tbe greatest poultry produc
ing nation In the world, and probably
this Is true today, not only as regards
the total production, but also per cap
ita use. Of the more than 300,000.000
population of China, shown by tbe last
census, there are few Indeed who do
not In the course of a year consume
something In the way of poultry
chickens or ducks or geese and cer
tainly a large number of eggs. For
considerable portions of the population
poultry Is the only animal food used,
and for the more wel'-to-do classes it Is
an ordinary meat diet the year around.
Ducks are pickled, dried, tinned and
otherwise preserved and shipped to
many parts of the world to Chinese
who are away frtfm a home supply
Eggs of all kinds are used fresh and
are cured by burying In clay and lime
until they acquire something of tbe
quality of cheese and are a great Chi
nese luxury. It Is easy to calculate
that" to meet all these lines of con

PROPHETS. Jeremiah and Hubakkuk
were prophesying at Jerusalem, when Dan
iel was carried away, and Ezeklel was his
ontemporury In Kabylonla, but not In
the city of Babylon. He was on th river
Chebar, southeast of the city.
At the time of this lesson the two
great world powers were In deadly
conflict. The Egyptian army uudoS
Necho had marched toward . Babylon
as far as Carchtmilnh on the Kupbra
tes. On the other bund Nabopolassar
with the assistance of the Scythians
had conquered the Assyrians, and de
stroyed Nineveh, the cupltal, II. C. COO.
The Bubylonlans marched up the Eu
phrates and met tbe Egyptian army
at Carchemluh, and defeated them.
Nabopoiassar, king of Babylon, sent
his son Nebuchadnezzar on to Jerusa
lem, who besieged that city. Jeremiah
speaks of the seige as In 1)04, Jebola-
klm's fourth yeur, probably In the
early past, so that a difference In tbe
period covered by the Babylonian and
the Jewish years would account for
the variation. The last part of 605
Is treated as Nebuchadnezzar's acces
sion year, and 604 bis first year as
king.
At this time Nabopolassar died and
Nebuchadnezzar basted back to Baby
lon, taking with him a number of cap
tives Including Dunlel and his three
companions, from royal or princely
families, either as hostages or persons
whom he could train for bla official
service.
Tbe names of the four young princes
were all compounded with tbe name
of God. Daniel God is my Judge;
Hananlah Jehovah Is gracious;
Mlshael This is as God; Azarluh
Jehovah Is a helper. Tbelr new names
were compounded with those of royal
ty or of Idols. Daniel was named Bel-
tesbazzar, favored of Bel or Ileitis,
the greut Babylonian god and goddess.
The custom of changing names con
tinues up to this day; any change
from Mohammedan to Christian, or
the reverse, being accompaulng by a
change of name. These four were
selected from among the captives on
account of their noble descent, talent
and promise of ability, to be trained
in tbe languuge and literature of tbe
Chaldeans, to be trusted officers.
When these young men were select
ed for their future career, several
things were appointed for their train
ing, like the training of young men
now In professional schools, after col
lege graduation. Their fames were
changed, as noted above,, so that, at
least officially, they would be in har
mony with the administration,
and not known distinctively as
Jews. They were to be traiued
In court customs and ways,
doubtless with other young men of
beatbeu morals and religion. They
were given luxurious foods such as
the king ate, and costly wines such
as tbe king drank.
Now here was a strenuous test of
the futth, the courage and the self-
control of the young men. Tbe eating
of the king's food would be a breuk
Ing of tut) Jewish law as to food, and
thus be a repudiating of the religloD
of the true God. The dietary would
almost certainly comprise articles of
tood, such as the flesh of swine, bares,
etc., which tbe law Interdicted to tbe
Israelites.
Tbe young men were greatly favored
by having a friend at court God had
brought Daniel Into favor and tender
love; had made him to llnd kindness
and compassion. God hal made Dan
lei lovable, giving him attractiveness
of person and wisdom of mind; more
over, the Holy Spirit had doubtless
moved directly upon tbe heart of
Ashpenaz, turning him toward Daniel.
All true love and friendship aro In
spired by God. t
Said Dunlel to Melzar: "Give us
pulse to eat." Ruther, vegetable food
in general; there Is no reason for re
stricting the Hebrew word used to
leguminous fruits, such as beans and
peas, which is what the term "pulse
properly denotes. "And dater to
drink lustead of the wlue." They be
gan the simple life.
The result of the test was better
physical condition, countenances fair
er, fatter In flesh. The simple life
brought better bodily health, more
beauty, greater strength and activity
all that was needed for the best work
arid the highest Joy, of which the body
Is capable.
Every trainer In athletics In all oul
colleges throughout the land will coo
firm this fact, and acts upon It.
Therefore stood they before the
king, were the personal advisers, and
among the leading officers of the
kingdom. All officers and servants
stood when In tbe preserce of the
mortarch. He found them ten times
better than all the magicians and as
trologers. The magicians were the
learned class, the scribes, the priostly
class. "The astrologers," reasoners
from the stars, were the. scientific
men, versed In magic and occult
science.
The Best of All Habits.
As an alienlBt and one whose whole
life has been concerned with the suf
ferings of the human mind, I would
state of all the hygienic measures to
counteract disturbed sleep, depiMslon
of spirits, and all the miserable se
quels of a distressed mnd. 1 vould
undoubtedly give the first puioe to
the simple habit, of prayer. Such
habit does more to cleanse the spirit
and strengthen the bouI to overcome

started to crack open and bleed, the
skin would scale off, and tbe good flesh
would burn and Itch dreadfully. When
my bunds first started to get sure,
there were small blisters like water
blisters which formed. They Itched
dreadfully. It just seined as thoui:h
I could tear the skin all off. I would
scratch tbem and the skin would peel
off. and the flesh would be all red aud
crack open and bleed. It worried ms
very much, as I bad never hud any
thing the matter with my skin. I was
so afraid I would have to give up my
employment.
'My doctor said be didn't think it
would amount to anything. Kut It
kept getting worse. One day I saw
a piece In one of the papers about a
lady who had had the same trouoie
with her hands. She had used Cuth urs
Soup and Ointment aud was cured. I
decided to try them, and my hand!
were all healed before I used one
cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of
Cutlcura Ointment. I am truly tnann-
ful for the good results from the ( uti-
cura Soap and Ointment, for tbanki
to them I was cured, and did not nave
to lose a day from work. I have haJ
no return of the skin iroume.
