CHOOSING A WATERMELON.

Flower Depend* on the Method of Acquiring the Fruit. The flavor at a watermelon Ae pends largely upon how you cboost ft. / . " K you select It over the tetepbom through the mediumship of a grocery clerk whose clairvoyance 1* imperfectly developed you .Swill obtain a melon which is beautiful to gaze upon externally but whose interior decor* ttem are unfinished. There is nothing so dispiriting la tife as to btoect a large, emerald watermelon wfth a blond area on its southern exposure and find the inride of ft a discouraged pink streaked wfth white. Such a color Bcbeme is fine flor a mother of pearl knife handle, but ineffective for nutritive purpose*. Another unhapptfying feature of a watenmekm. is to be compelled to eat it wfth a fork and not drop any of the jutoe on your napkin. Water melons were never intended by nature to be sliced geometrically and eaten by means of a fork. They are not In the pie rias*. For that matter, many good authorities contend that the use of a fork damages the flavor of a pie. Pie and watermelon each should be eaten by the same method. A convenient wedge should be seized in the hand, the back should be turned If necessary to avoid shocking onlookers, and then the delicacy should be bitten off ad Üb. The chin may be wiped dry with the napkin later. To choose a watermelon, go to a small town and waft on the main street until a freckled boy drives in on a wagordoad of the dainties. Thump tire largest one, and if it responds wfth a solidly hoUow plunk, pay the boy Ms quarter, seek a secluded spot, break the melon on a fence post and let nature take its rcnroe, ' Chicago Post •

Wisdom of a Hueband.

Speaking of the fads and foibles of the sweeteome sex the other day. Judge John G. Horner of Mount Holly related a little incident which shows that at least one poor old married man is wise to the ways of wifey. Some time ago, the judge said, a friend of his who lives in a suburban town was asked by his wife to get her a ready-made shirtwaist while he was In this city, and instead of raising a majestic yelp kicking the kioodle through the door of the crystal closet and knocking the stovepipe, he meekly replied that he would be happy to oblige. The noon hour found him in a department store, and after locating the counter where female toggery is sold and watting for his turn at bat be gently remarked to the saleslady tint he would like to have a shirtwaist for his wife. "Here are some very pretty ones," •aid the. saleslady, hauling out ninetyeight or less. “What color do you prefer T” “It doesn't make any difference,” replied the husband. . “I believe she would like this one,” returned the saleslady. “What size do you waotT” “ft doesn’t make any difference,” was the surprising answer of the purchaser. “Doesn't mate any difference!" exMaimed the wondering sateslady. “I should think that it would make a whole lot of difference!" “Oh, no, It doesn't," insisted the wise hubby. “No matter what color I got her, or what size I got her, I would have to come beck tomorrow and have it exchanged anyhow."
