PAGE SIX THE CITIZEN, TUESDAY, JULY i, 1913 TWO farmers met In a western town a day or two aftera cyclone had visited that particular neigh borhood. "She shook things up pretty bad out at my place," said one, stroking his whiskers meditatively. "By the way, Hi," ho added, "that new barn o' yourn get hurt any?" "Waal," drawled the other, "I dunno. I hain't found it yet" . ! t No Bubbles In Hers. Little Elsie, given her first glass of mineral water, made a very wry face over it "It tastes that way, dear, because it's charged," said her mother. "I guess, mamma," said Elsie, push ing it aside, "I'll Just have some of the kind you've paid for." Having an Understanding. She Wfien we are married, dear, will you expect mo to bako my own bread? Ho-Ill leave that with you, darling, only I shall insist on your not baking mine. .T TTt TT y.Tt Tt-?.t..T..TTT SUMMER FISH HINTS. X Tou can select a fish lying on ice on the marble slab, apply the ordinary tests of "bright eyes and red jjills," take it homo and find it is beginning to urnT" Twenty minutes is sufficient 't is more langerou to cat tainted fish than anything olse, and the use of sauces, dressings and various condiments often hides, too successfully, tbo taste which would betray its condi tion. If you are at all sus picious place in the water in which the fislrls to bo boiled two or three pieces of charcoal, egg size. This will make tho fish turn out perfectly fresh and wholesome. There are two simple ways of keeping fish sweet Ono is to hang it up in a muslin bag soak ed In vinegar, tho other to lay it in water and cover with small pieces of charcoal. Fritters, fish or anything can bo fried in tho same fat without any of tho different tastes being transmitted If the fat is. in each case boiling. ,.TMMt,T-T..t-TTilTMT.lTi.T.

It is done in this way: It is agreed between tho guesser and his partner that whoever speaks last bo fore tbo door is closed upon tbo guess er shall bo the person pointed at It is very seldom that any one discov ers this trick. WHAT THE WITTY OWES SAY The Outlook if Women Rule. Mr. Meeklcy Then you would have the word "obey" omitted from tbo marriage service? Miss Strongnilnd Not at all; merely transferred so that the man will say it. S None There to Read. "I feel afraid of that woman. They say she is a mind reader."

I selio the rail, And don't I shoot down I Whew I "Don't be afraid, son," papa says. "The dork has not hurt you." Of course It hasn't, but who knows When It Is going to? pOlNTSfL Small habits nnd mannerisms betok en good or bad breeding. It is hard to cure oneself of every day mannerisms, but it can bo done if you keep at it perseveringly. Take, for instance, the habit of yawning in public without making any attempt to conceal your widely open ed mouth. No man or woman who has any claim to good breeding would think of doing such a thing. Not only Is It extremely unbecoming to stretch your mouth from ear to ear, but it is not a pleasant sight for other people. Of course you can't keep from yawn ing, but you can place your hand over your mouth when you do yawn. Another rude and exceedingly aggra vating habit is that of interrupting conversation, taking tho words out of people's mouths and carrying on tho story yourself. Walt until the other person is finished and then have your say Don't talk at the top of your voice about your own prlvato concerns when in public. The public Is not interested and prefers to read its newspaper in peace. If s no use saying that you can't cure a habit like any of tho small ones men tioned. You can if you exercise your will power. It won't take long. Just keep it continually on your mind, and never give way to It. After awhile you will forget all about it I TL II Y112,A The Dining Room 1 I lliC UUWG OeaUlUUl j In Summer THIS simple dining room furnishing gives n cool and roomy aspect to the summer dhilng room.
