How to Vuhiipeo Without Injur
ing 1 our llenltli.
Smoking, according to l>r. Caze, a
well known French physician, is not an
lnjurioun but a healthful htibit. llow
uver, you must smoke in the proper
way and according to rules. I'here are
eight of the latter enumerated by the
doctor.
The first two apply to cigars. 'I ho
latter must be. in the tirst place, mild,
and, secondly, good.
The third rule is always to throw
away your cigar when half finished
and your cigarette when Hearing the
end.
The fourth states that neither a cigar
nor a cigarette, if it has gone out, must
be lighted a second time.
The other rules are:
Never remain in a cloml of smoke,
nwver chew the end of a cigar or ciga
rette, use a holder lined with cotton
wool to absorb the nicotine, and at
home smoke a pipe with a long stein or
preferably a nargile.
All these rules being duly observed,
you may smoke absolutely as much as
you like, and l>r. Caze says that it will
not only do you no harm, but may do
you good.
Tl»e Word 4 *Chnp. M
"Chap" is simply an abbreviation of
chapman, the merchant of former days,
and is derived from the Anglo-Saxon
"ceap," a bargain. The word almost
brings before us the loud voiced
"cheap Jack" as he cries his wares lu
the cheaplng or market.
Chan skeins to have come Into com
oioti use at the end of the sixteenth
century and Ls rarely mentioned in
books before 1700. Johnson does not
recognize it. though Steele uses It In
1712 in the Spectator ("If you want to
sell. Li re is jorr chap"), and it is found
In l.aiiey's Dictionary, 17:51. Its orlff
lnal meaning of a buyer or seller still
lingers lu the dialects of many coun
ties.
Coupled with the adjectives old,
young, little, poor, it was and is used
In familiar language, as is its relative,
a queer "customer." Todd, ISIS, af
firms that a good chap meant one
to whom credit might be given, where
as not qualified by good It was a term
of contempt.—London Standard

Many experiments have been made
In order to find out what and where
the organ of taste is In the lower cre
ations, tut it is easier to say where it
ls not. Crawfish and worms seem to 1
have decided preferences in the matter !
of food, though no special taste organ j
has been found. Lobsters like decay- j
lng food; the crab is more dainty in its
diet.
Snails and slugs show a decided
preference for certain kinds of food,
as garden lovers know to their cost.
Peas and cabbages, dahlias and sun
flowers are great favorites, but they
will not touch the white mustard.
Some prefer animal food, especially
If rather high. Spiders have only a
slight sense of taste. Flies soaked in
|jaraffln seem quite palatable to them,
though one species, the diadema, is
somewhat more particular at.d refuses
to touch alcohol In any form what
ever.—Chambers' Journal.
•The OlUr>< I.onaloii Kltrhen."
Perhaps the oldest relic in London of
a niediieval kitchen Is at Westminster
abbey, though little remains to indicate
it save the rubble flooring, the buttery
hut<si and mi adjoining cellar, now the
handsome dining hall of Canon Wilber
force. The monk who acted as kitchen
er or refeetorlan had a responsibility us
great as any hotel manager or chef In
these days, for among his fellow
njonks, to say nothing of the pension
ers, were critics as keen as any among
the world famed diners of today. Yet
the abbey kitchen was scarcely more
elaborate than any one of those which
linger on in the remote cottages of tlio
rough Cornish coast or on the York,
■hire moors, where the entire cooking
of the family is done on a flat hearth,
with no other fuel than turf or peat
or twigs. The "broth pot" hangs from
a crane or stands on a tripod and is
most accommodating in its uses. Would
you make bread? Lay the dough on a
clean iron plate and invert the broth
pot over it then heap up all round it
your lighted turf or wood.— Windsor
Magazine.
A t'lanar lit Kapolron'a Will.
Peter the Oreat is said to have made
a will In which he exhorted his heirs
to approach as nearly as possible to
Constantinople and toward India, but
the authenticity of this document has
been disputed, and it is shrewdly sus
pected to have been forged late in the
eighteenth century by August von
Kotzebue. Of the genuineness, how
ever, of the last will and testament
of Napoleon I. there can be no man
ner of doubt. One of its clauses was
as vindictive as the testamentary in
junction of Queen Austrigilda to her
husband to have her two doctors killed
and burled with her.
The exile of Longwood absolutely
bequeathed 10,000 francs to a fellow
called Cantlllon, who had been tried
in Paris for an attempt to murder the
Duke of Wellington. The man was
still surviving in Brussels when Na
poleon 111. came to the throne, und
Cantlllon was duly paid his legacy.

She was a pansy. There she stood in
the great garden of Japan, coquettish
ly fanning herself with a leaf. And lie
was a butterfly, a handsome fellow.
Daily he flew to her to embrace her
slender form and to kiss tin-tears away
the night had left upon her brow. Wall
Hu, the gardener, one day espied the
beautiful flower, and soon the pansy
found herself installed amid the most
luxurious surroundings in the dressing
room of the geisha. There she rested
in the costly cloisonne vase. And she
longed for her mother, the earth, and
her father, the great sun, and her lov
er, the butterfly. No more tears be
dewed her eyes. Her soul left her, she
pined away, and one day she died. And
the butterfly who missed her well, he
found another pansy. Chicago Record

'THE MOST ORIGINAL
NOVEL OF THE YEAR
The most competent judges have
pronounced "Iu the Bishop's Carri
age" the most original novel ot the
year.
If is a tale about flesh and blood peo
ple; a storv for men and women.
"Uncle .loe" Cannon, Speaker ol'
the National House of Representa
tives,is most enthusiastic in his praise
of Miss Miriam Michelson's book.
This what ho has to -ay about it:
"1 am in receipt of a copy of"In

pleasure. Its ems to me it ought to

"J. G. CANNON."
Could anything he stronger or could
praise come from a better source.
The story is something absolutely
now in the literaty line—a theatrical
romance that abounds in thrilling
i situations interwoven with genuine
| humor and human heart-burnings. In
' fact, the tale is so remarkably good
that the Sunday North American of
Philadelphia has secured the exclusive
right to publish it in this teiritory,
and printed the first instalment Sun
day, June -it;,Willi illustrations worthy
of the story.
Miss Michelson, the author,has been
for several years a successful and
much-admired writer of newspaper
and magazine articles.
20 YEARS WITH QUAY,
BY HIS EX-SECRETARY
The most remarkable newspaper art
icle of the year, one in which every
Pennsylvanian will be interested,will
take up two pages of the Suuday
North American of Sunday, July 8.
Its a study of Senator Quay,his meth
ods and his deeds, by Frank Willing
Leach, who for twenty years followed
the fortunes of the dead Senator
through good and evil times, except
on twos occasions when his judgment
regarding his duty to his party led
him to oppose his chief.
In liis tale of great events Mr. Leacli
I lias reserved nothing- He has written
i his story from the viewpoint of an in
timate friend and sincere admirer ot
Senator Quay. Ho lias "set down
naught in malice." His admiration
for his chief is shown in every para
graph. He lias, however, told Penn
sylvania history with the assurance
and verity of a capable chronicler,
who observed from behind the scenes
the manipulation of Senator Quay's
political chessman. One incident after
another is cited to clear up the cloud
of doubt that has surrounded many
political events in Pennsylvania.
Mr. Leach explains how Senator
Quay's system ot political rewards
and punishments turned upside down
the plans of his lieutenants, how and
why the "insurgent" of one year be
came the "stalwart" favorite of the
next,and how the cherished ambitions
of men were trodden down with the
releutlessness of a juggernaut, all be
cause expediency and the smooth run
ning of the machine demanded it.
This is told by one who suffered, but
who believed the chief reasoned not.
unkindly when fate removed him from
the chessboard of politics.
This article is a chaptor of the un
written political history in Pennsyl
vania. It will be cit« d when the
political mysteries of the past again
come up for solution, and will stand
as authority when discussions arise.
No Pennsylvania!) should fail to read
it. It will be instructive and useful
alike to the boy and the old man, and
to the wcman as well, for there is a
great human side to the story.

WALKING IN CIRCLES.
Why I*fo|ilo I. ON! in I OK or Koremt
Do Not <■«» strttittlit On.
It is a matter of common knowledge
that when a man is walking blindfold
ed or is lost in a fog or in some un
known forest or desert instead of
walking straight he has always a
tendency to work round in a circle. Hie
most commonly accepted explanation
of this curious fact is the slight in
equality of a man's legs. The result
of one limb being longer than tho
I other will naturally l>e that a per
1 son will unconsciously take a longer
I step with the longer limb, and con
I sequently will trend to the right or
I to the left, according as the left or
right is the longer, unless the tendency
to deviation is corrected by the eye
This explanation is supported l>\ the
fact that in the enormous in.: joriiy "112
cases the human legs are proved to lie
of unequal length. The careful ineas
urements of a series # of skeletons
showed that no less than i' ll per rent
had the lower limbs unequal in length;
35 per cent had the right limb longer
than the left, while in 5."> per cent the
left leg was the longer. The left leg
being, therefore, more often the longer,
it Is to be expected that the inclina
tion should take place more frequently
to the right than to the left, and this j
conclusion is quite borne out by ob
servations made on a number of per
Sons when walking blindfolded.

lie Died Cnrfd.
There used to live near Dunbarton, in
New Hampshire, a physician who had
a reputation for pigheaded stupidity.
A good story about this physician
used to circulate in the town. Accord
ing to it, fin old woman stopped his gig
one day and pointed toward a house
with crape on the door.
"So, doctor," she said maliciously,
"Mr. Brown is dead, for all you prom
ised to cure him, eh?"
The doctor looked at her In his pom
pous, stupid way.
"You're mistaken," he said. "You
didn't follow the progress of the case.
It's true Mr. Brown is dead, but he
died cured!"

INSTANT DEATH.
It In \ot St* (julck luit Thitf the MlniJ
lliin Time (n Art.
It is questionable if such n phenom
enon us instant death is known to the
scientist ;iikl investigator. I'hysielanH
11 n«l siirßcnns tell us that death by
gunshot wound is the easiest mode of
terminating life; yet, rapid as such a
mode nf taking off must necessarily
lie, (In- body has leisure to feel and
time to relleet and on rare occasions
even to act.
On the lirst attempt of one of the
ridhcrents of tin- Spanish monarch to
assassinate William, prince of Orange,
the ball passed through the bones of
iiis face and brought him to the ground.
In the instant which preceded stupe
faction. however, he was able to frame
the notion that the ceiling of a room
had fallen in and crushed him.
Another question in this connection
is that of probable pain. Although nu
merous Instances could be cited in
support of the view that the mind acts
in cases of so called instant death, It
by no means follows that the infliction
of a fatal blow is attended by the least
semblance of pain or a single pang of
fear or regret. I'nless death results
immediately, however, the pain may
be as varied as the nature of the in
juries.

".New Yorkers look on Washington as
one of the best towns In the United
States in the matter of trading in the
market," said a resident of the capital.
"There is more secret buying and sell
ing of stocks going on in Washington
thifn in any other city in the country,
for the reason that so many of the
men operating are in the employ of the
government and are afraid to bo seen
in the brokers' offices. Many of these
men are under bond, and one of the
Conditions of tlielr bond Is that they
■ lust refrain from speculating and
from playing the races. But this pro
hibition doesn't keep them from taking
a flier in stocks, only they do it in such
a private way that few people know of
their deals, which are transacted be
fore and after regular business hours."

ginson in Atlantic.
The Tomato.
The tomato has a curious history.
After the revolution of Santo I»o
--mingo many French families came
from there to Philadelphia, where they
introduced their favorite "pom me
d'iunour" Although Introduced from
South America as early as lolKi into
England, it was looked upon with su:
pleion and its specific name, iycopersi
cum, derived from lykos (wolf) and
persikon (a peach), referring to the
beautiful but deceptive appearance of
its fruit, intimates pretty closely tin*
kind of estimation in which it wan
held. It is now, however, almost
universally used.
