"Wise Irl. Now, there was a certain girl, and she had three wooers. The first wooer said she was the whola world to him, but she frowned upon his suit. The second wooer said she was the sun, moon and stars to him, but she bade him bo on his way. "To me," said the third, "you are a young woman of agreeable manners, with eyes that might be a little bluer, with a nose that is a wee bit puggy and with a few freckles and an annoying habit of blurting out your thoughts." She married the third wooer. Being pressed for an explanation of her conduct, she said: "My 'goodness' I think I was sensible. I married the only one that had courage enough to tell me of my faults before marriage, instead of waiting to throw them up to ma afterward." Life.

St. j John is now in the height of beauty with its f.ower beds before each house. The fact that St. John is beautified with the flowers causes comment from every visitor.

SlaKTilnt? of Salads. Too many people who are well bred hi nearly every other respect are guilty of the solecism to call it by the mildest name of cutting up their salad on the plate. Of course salad has sometimes to be reduced to lower dimensions, so to spak. but it need not be done by the wholesale or o,uite in the businesslike fashion practiced by some. Grasping a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, they slash away at the inoffensive green stuff with a vigor and a noise of a miniature mowing machine until the bruised leaves are converted into shreds of their former selves. There is common sense in the convention that prohibits such a course. Nearly all green salads are broken into pieces of convenient size before sending to the table. Even when those r.ro too large the leaf should be quietly divided with a fork.

A farewell reception was tendered Mrs. Anna Goldberg by the Daughters of Liberty at the home of Mrs. Palmer on Tod avenue. All the members of the lodge were present and after indulging in several different games during the evening and being served with a very dainty lunch, Mrs. Goldberg was presented with a handsome cut glass dish as a token of the esteem in which she was held by the lodge, who all regret her leaving the city, as she has been a faithful worker in' the lodge since its inception.

Government Is to Take Action Regarding the Case a of MuchAbused Leper. Washington, Aug. S. In a tent on a bleak mountain side in Randolph county, W. Va.. not far from the town of Eikins. George Rossi, a Syrian leper about whom there has been much concern on the part of the health authorities of dozens of cities during the past three weeks, is existing without care of any kind. The people in the vicinity are said to be nearly panicstricken over the presence of the leper, and the health authorities of the state of West Virginia are threatening the Baltimore and Ohio railroad with all sorts of dire consequences for bringing the diseased man into the state.

the case finally has been brousht to

the attention of the United States authorities, after the at3ieted man has ! leen shunted from place to place in

' sivral states without being able to find an abidng place where he can have proper care. Orders have been issued that Rossi be visited in his mountain tent and examined by a j surgeon of the marine hospital service ; and a Syrian interpreter, with a view : of ascertaining his status in this coun- ; try. i I He Wouldn't De Teased.
