Thoro was Alice, who said me nay, And Anna, who spurned me cold. And the merry, the madcap Mae, Who cried I was bad and bold. Their bright eyes haunt my dreams In a dim delicious mist. And a glint of pearl and Ivory gleams Through the Hp that I almost kiss ed. There was Rose of the soulful sigh And June of the wistful face, Allegra of luring eye And the courtly poise of Grace. Lo, out of my giddy past, Though I squirm and wiggle and twist. The sweet ghosts find mo out at last The girls I almost kissed. Though I'm fat, smooth domed and old. And none would kiss me now. My loves come back to fold New wrinkles In my brow, And each has a suit to lay. On my breach of promise list. For the girls that I almost kissed one day Noxt day 1 always kissed!

"Did anybody ever sep a one-armed woman'" asked a gray-headed man as he surveyed the afternoon parade. "I never did. Almost every day I meet one-armed men. but I have yet to encounter a woman with that pitifully empty sleeve. Are there no women who have suffered that mutilation? If not, why not? And. If so, where are they? "Yesterday I heard It argued that there was no cause for a woman to lose an arm; that women do not go to the wars and are not engaged In occupations that are likely to carry away a part of their body. But that reasoning Is not sound. Many women work In mills and factories, and they are as liable to accidents In the streets and public conveyances as men. Frequently they figure In these accidents; but, although men In the same situation would lose an arm, women never do. "What Is the cause of tholr immunity?" New York Globe. The Falcon.

"I gave a package of Grape-Nuts to a neighbor whose 3-year-old child was a weazened little thing. Ill half the time. The little tot ate the GrapeNuts and cream greedily and the mother continued the good work and If was not long before a truly wonderful change manifested Itself In the child's face and body. The results were remarkable, even for GrapeNuts. "Both husband and I use Grane-Nuts every day and keep strong and well and have three of the finest, healthiest ooys you can nnü in a days marcn. Many mothers Instead of destroying 1 the children's stomachs with candy and cake give the youngsters a handful of urape-Nuts when they are begging for something in the way of sweets.
