Here is a list of the “don’ts" which the doctors say will prevent the annual visitation of the cold: “Don’t sit in a draughty car.” “Don’t sleep in hot rooms.” “Don’t avoid the fresh air.” "Don’t stuff yourself at meal time. Over-eating reduces your,resistence." To which we would add—when you take a cold get rid of it as quickly as possible. To accomplish that you will find Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy most excellent.

WHATCHANCE HAS A MAN?

“It waa the biggest escape of mgr fife* said the young man with the gray necktie, as he sank into a chair at the club with a relieved sigh. *Tve Just been seeing her off on the train. She came here two months ago to visit her aunt, and toe only reason minute that I’m not an engaged man and done for Is that Providence watches over the unweary. *T should have taken warning when her aunt mentioned caoually erne evening that Dora was coming to stay a while with her. She said that among all her nlecee Dora shone a bright particular star, because of her lovely disposition and sweet ways. She sate when Dora came she felt she could really take a rest, because the child was so clever about managing a house and overseeing servants. “Well, Dora was pretty, terribly pretty, and attractive. T was so Interested In those facts that I didn't erven take warning when on my second call she confided to me that she never Intended to marry. “I expostulated with Dora. No girl had a right to say that, I told her gravely. She had no right to snatch from some despairing, man bis only hope of happiness and thus make his life a howling desert. “1 devoted that whole evening to trying to convince her how wrong she was. I could not bear to go away thinking I bad left her still cherishing such reprehensible notions. i had plenty of opportunity to argue the matter with her afterward, for I was invited to dine so many times, and of oourae' that meant dinner calls and theatres to square myself. “Presently Dora’s aunt took a band. She said it was a pity Dora was so particular, because she missed so many good tones through that fault. She absolutely would not waste time talking to a man or accepting his Invitations to theatres or parties unless he really Interested her and she liked him. “I had been seeing Dora about four times a week, so, naturally, I felt gratified, tremulously that I hoped I aad not been boring her. Dora’s aunt shook her head solemnly. “ ‘Mr. GUter, ’ she said, ‘I assure you I know no one with whom Dora feels more at home and happier than with you. I donft Jtnow when I’ve seen her so Interested. It has pleased me so much that she really seemed to take such an interest in you. That has been the child’s chief fault, her Independence. She always acts as If she didn’t care in the least whether anyone liked her or not. It is queer, for she has such a tender heart!’ “Any man would have been flattered to And that Dora liked him. I was so pleased about It that It was a shock, the next time I called, to find her engrossed In the conversation of Billings, who Is an awful frost. I was , very much surprised. Dora seemed to hang on his words. She paid scarcely any attention to nto.’ Wben l left she smiled sweetly. “It was next morning, in the middle of my second cup of coffee, that the great Idea dawned on me that maybe she had been trying to make me jealous of Billings. “I stayed away. Then Dora telephoned me to come over. She had on her prettiest gown and she was going to cook lobster In the chafing dish the way I liked H best. Oh, I was wideawake enough now! That lobster Newburg to m? was nothing but a large, deadly pointed fishhook, and I was assigned the pert of the fish. “I floundered agilely and escaped, although Dora leaned her head on one hand and posed beautifully over the chafing dish and talked about her Indecision whether to take up settlement work or go as a missionary. She seemed a little irritated when I advocated the latter course.

“She announced later that the lobster Newburg was all gone. She did It In a tone of voice that said I’d better go home, so I went. “Then Dora’s aunt helped. She took to mentioning the heaps of letters Dora got from her home town, and hinted that Dora had come away to escape three adorers, each of whom had vowed to wed her. She asked Billings to dinner whenever she asked me, and politely insinuated to me In private that I had five miles to go and about two seconds to make It In if I was going to win in the race. “I was scared to death by this time. You see, Dora really was very pretty and I was afraid that in some moment of abSratlon I might awallow the hook. I was in danger up to the very minute the train pulled out to-day. “I didn’t even let myself take a square look at Dora In her fascinating travelling suit till the wheels started to revolve. I waa afraid I’d ask If I aright write to her. I was bound I wouldn't do that. I'm perfectly safe how, if I can stop where I ams" A horrified look suddenly spread over the face of the young in gray. “Great Scott!" he breathed, pulling a pair of gloves out of his pocket “Here are Dora's gloves! I remember, she asked me to take care of them while she attended to the baggage man! I*l1 —why, J’H have to write to her now when I send ’em I And she’ll reply and ask something, and I*U have to write again. Say, do you suppose shs could have done that on purpose?” V “You're lost, all rightl” sympathised his friend.

WAGES ON RUSSIAN FARMS.

Agricultural Laborer Receives Only $32 a Year and Subsistence. The extreme poverty and the low standard of living of peasants from whom the agricultural laborers are recruited assure a low level of wages for agricultural labor. The average wages will appear almost incredibly low from an American point of view,, notwithstanding the general complaints of the estate holders concerning the unreasonable demands of the laborers. According to an official investigation, embracing the decade of 18821891, the average annual wages for a male agricultural worker In Russia were less than $32 and for a female worker less than $lB. To this must be added the cost of subsistence, which is equally low, being on an average cost of employing a laborer for the entire year is equal to only $5 for the male and S4O for the female. The wages for the summer season of five months are almost equal to the annual wages, being $22 for the male and sl3 for the female laborer.

When Greek Meets Greek.

A young Irishman in want of s2s wrote to bis uncle as follows: “Dear Uncle: If you could see bow I blush for shame as I am writing you would pity me. Why? Because I have to ask you for a few dollars, and do not know how to express myself. It is impossible for me to tell you. I prefer to die. 1 send you this by messenger, who will wait for an answer. Believe me, my dearest uncle, your most obedient and affectionate nephew. “P. S. —Overcome with remorse for wbat I have written; I have been running after the messenger In order to recover this letter, but 1 cannot catch him. Heaven grant that something may stop him or that this letter may get lost” The uncle , was naturally touched, but was equal to the emergency. He replied as follows: “My Dear Jack: Console yourself and blush no more. Providence has heard your prayer. The messenger lost your letter. Your affectionate uncle.”

"Rag Sale" in Rome.

On Wednesdays in Rome I like, as do many others, to go to the “rag sale.” ft Is held by the Jews in their particular quarter of the city. These are not allowed to have shops, but on this one day in the week they are privileged to sell as much and as many kinds of things as they can on the street It is a curious sight to see lines stretched across the streets for the hanging up of trousers, blankets, women’s and children’s clothing, and stuff of all sorts. Then there are tables and stands on which almost everything is sold. Sometimes rare old brocades and church embroideries are to be found among coarse and Impossible-looking fabrics. Indeed, it Is not difficult to reduce one’s letter of credit considerably at the “rag sale,"—Detroit News-Tribune.

Weighed in Your Own Scales.

If you impute motives, and pretend to read hearts, others will do the same towards you. A hard and censorious behavior Is sure to provoke reprisals. Those around you will pick up the peck measure you have been using, and measure your corn with It You do not object to men forming a fair opinion of your character, neither are you forbidden to do the same towards them, but as you would object to their sitting In Judgment on you, do not sit in judgment upon them. —Spurgeon.

The Weight Man's Woes.

“I wouldn’t mind this business,” acknowledged the man who guesses the weights of people, “If It wasn’t for the automobile coats the women wear to hldo their figures—how are you to guess a weight unless you see the figure?—and if the crowd didn't nearly die laughing whenever 1 happen to guess wrong. A lot of them seem to stand around waiting to Bee me guess wrong, then chortle like fiends."

A Solution.

In one of Boston’s primary schools the other day the head master of the district presented a problem for the scholars that would require the use of fractions. He expected the aqswer “1 don’t now." The problem: “If I had eight potatoes how could I divide them among nine boys?" One brightlooking youngster raised his hand. “Mash them," promptly replied the young mathematician.

Breton-Gaelic Language.

The Breton language Is a branch of the Celtic, which, in turn, lnoludeo Gaelic. In Its original Celtic form It is still spoken in lov.e Brittany by more than a million people. There ii no record of a single town, that you refer to, that Is alone la sp taking Gaelic and French.

Chauvinism.

Chauvinism is an expression originally used to denote an Intense admiration for the first Napoleon and his regime, but latterly employed to mean an absurd patriotism and pride In one’s own country. In this last sense It Is the French equivalent of jingoism.
