Many Ailments Cured . by Diet of Grapes A diet of grapes has taken its place among the treatments recommended for various ailments. The grape _ceatment is recommended for obesity, varicis stomach troubles, chronic bronchitis and some chest affections. There are several places in Europe to which patients go during the grape season for treatment. At first sight the treatment would appear to be an exceedingly attractive one, since it consists merely in living largely on these luscious fruits. In. practice, however, most people find the reverse the case, for after a time a constant diet of grapes palls on the appetite, and people taking the cure are frequently heard to say that they come to hate the very sight of them. The patients generally begin with a few large, luscious grapes by way of dessert at the end of their meal. But during the four to six weeks which is the general length of the cure, the weight of the grapes is gradually increased until the individual may be eating as much as eight pounds a day, with little er no other food. In the more ordinary cases, howevar, when in full swing, the treatment is generally a pound or a little more of grapes three times a day, from half to one hour before meals. :
Brigand of Balkans Modern Robin Hood
- Brigandage is still a profitable profession in the Balkans, but its practice presents pitfalls to the ‘movice. Not only has the brigand of the Near East to face the dangers inseparable from armed lawlessness, but he has to observe a rigid code of professional etiguette. .
This was shown when a Greek excabinet minister was captured by brigands near Salonika, He offered all the money in his possession to the chief of the robber band. But the latter indignantly refused to accept it. “We are brigands, not thieves!” he exclaimed. : .
When the ransom arrived, part of it was returned to the ex-minister to drink the health of his captors. This, it was explained, was the invariable custom of the “best brigands.” The robber chief in this episode claims ‘to be a sort of Robin Hood. He told his prisoner that part of the proceeds of his brigandage was set aside to give money to the poor and provide dowries for penniless girls. He also seemed to be of a religious bent—like the brigands who captured the late Lord Muncaster and his party in 1870, and took them to church on Sunday.
The Best Judge _ The trust and dependence which characterized Rev. Doctor Smith’s attitude towards his wife’s judgment in all practical affairs were sometimes touching, but occasionally they were amusing. . W ST am sorry you have been troubled with the toothache,” said the family dentist, when Doctor Smith appeared in his office ohe day. “I gave you the first minute I had free after receiving your wife’s telephone message. Let’s see, which tooth is it that’s troubling you?”’ “It's not aching just at present,” said Doctor Smith after a moment’s hesitation, during which he made a cautious investigation with his tongue. “Didn’t Mrs. Smith mention to you which tooth it was? I always rely on her in such matters.” - His Language In a lttle town in Tennessee Brother Mac Is trustee of the school, director of the local bank and a pillar in the church. He is especially noted for hig avaricious tendencies. : On the hight when the congregation were to hear the annual report of the officers of the church, Brother Mac had dropped off to sleep during the sermon. His wife noticed him asleep while the secretary and treasurer was reading his report. She touched him just as the officer was saying, “Leaving a cash balance in the. treasury of $126.30.” -
Upon hearing this, Erother Mac arose and said: “Mr. Chairsman, I make a motion we declare a dividend of € per cent.”—Forbes Magazine. For the Poor - A party ef minstrels went to a country town and advertised a performance for “the bencfit of the poor, tickets being reduced to sixpence.” The hall was crammed full. The next morning a committee for the poor called upon the treasurer of the concern for the amount the company had netted. The treasurer expressed great astonishment at the demand. - o “I ‘thought,” said the chairman of the committee, “you advertised this concert for the benefit of the poor?” The treasurer replled: “Didn’t we put the tickets down to sixpence so that the poor could all come?’—Royal Magazine,
Superstitious Fancies
"~ Like the southern colored doughboy, who, during the World war, wore a special make eof garters, because the manufacturer guaranteed that '“no metal can touch you,” many people carry good luck charms, sometimes with real conviction, sometimes with excuses to avert the arrows of destiny. Popular opinion may even change as to the good or bad omen of some charm. Opal, for instance, was a good-luck charm for many ‘years, until Walter Scott, in one ot his novels, attributed bad luck to the opal. “The Ten Commandments’ at Crystal 5. days beginning next Monday.

Brotherhood Cannot , ~ Be Made Compulsory Brotherhood is Ilike poets and slogans: it is born and not made. There are two kinds of brotherhood—one that binds people who are by nature congenial and one that binds those who are comrades in arms, is the assertion of a writer in the Baltimore Sun. The first is a product of taste and the other a product of partisanship. In both cases we love our brother for the same reason that we enjoy victuals that agree with us. All religions impose an obligation to love fellow believers. All civilized men make some effort to encourage a spirit of fraternity. Yet one is at liberty to doubt whether any of these efforts has materially altered human relationships. : : True, any club or lodge or other. organization may bring together kindred spirits and thus widen each man’s acquaintance among his own kind and add to his happiness; but if one who finds the organization’s members uncangehial is by some mischance enrolled among them, neither pledge of brotherhcod nor sense of duty can make him like' them moere.
‘Blood brothers fight; the fact of their brotherhood cannot make -them congenial.- If these cannot love one another in conformity with the. obligations imposed by their kinship what reason is there to believe that men of different breeds can learn to love one another merely by willing to.do so?
The man who has a sincere desire to love his fellows may rid himself of the selfishness and narrowness and conceit that now conspire to give him a lone-wolf complex, and may in humility and patience reconcile himself to all mankind; but to the last he will continue to avoid persons who do-not agree with him and to- court those whose opinions dovetail with his. §
The ego admits to brotherhood only those who conform. You-do not in truth love a comrade in arms; you love yourseif and your -cause, and accept him as a brother solely because he is grinding your ax. : : Love isn’'t a product of will or pledge; it happens. : i i
Marvelous Sea Plants
One of the most thoroughly equipped sea-going expeditions ever. organized is studying the mysterious Sargasso sea, originally discovered by Columbus. This remarkable sea is covered by a huge gathering of seaweeds, a floating mass of vegetable growth extending- for nearly 260,000 square miles, around. which the North Atlantic -slowly revolves. Numerous air bladders, like small berries, keep the plants afloat. Seaweeds thrive chiefly in the 100-fathom limit—within 600 feet of tlre surface—but small and almost invisible forms are found everywhere in the ocean. Round BritIsh coasts a primitive variety is seen in the bright green and hair-like “erow-silks”; but no essential difference exists between the small weeds and the immense growths found in Pacific waters. Thicker than the trunk of a large °tree, the gigantic stems of seaweed near Tierra del Fuego attain the astonishing length of 400 feet. Huge fronds resemble the spreading leaves of tropical palms, There are extensive sub-ocean forests of kelp, and floating islands of weeds swarming. with live -animals often measuring 8 feet from base to tip. Seaweeds multiply chiefly by means of spores, but near land.the waves render unique assistance. . ' " . Trained Mouse John Tierney, a night watchman in a factory in Geneva, N. Y., claims to have been successful in training a mouse to come when called, the call being the rattle of his dinner pail at midnight when he gets ready for his dinner. When the mouse made -its first appearance he gave it some bits of food, next night he rattled the lid against the pail and in a short time the mouse appeared and was fed, and each night since he has found the mouse appearing shortly after the dinner rattle was sounded, so he claims a mouse may be trained to do a certain thing and repeat it over and over if one appeals to its appetite and is patient. - - .
