A PLEDGE. To watch a little closer The path where I shall tread; To pluck therefrom the brambles, Planting roses in their stead. To guard each tiny impulse, Each tho't, each word and deed To study well my own heart That mirrors human need. To bear no thought of malice Toward any life below; To touch with gentle kindness All hearts where'er I go. To write the year's unfoldment In worthy deeds each day; To step by step get nearer Life's goal that waits alway. G. W. Hendricks. TWIN BOYS.

Owens, Mr. and In the June issue of The Monthly Cyclopedia and Medical Bulletin of Philadelphia, edited by Charles E. de M. Sajous, M. D L. L. DM ap pears the following: "Many physicians have come to realise that caffeine, as daily consumed in coffee and tea, has much to do with the causation of many annoying ailments that formerly were obscurely diagnosed and vaguely treated. It stands to reason that this alkaloid, when taken in daily doses of six or more grains, must exert a harmful action on the nervous, circulatory, and digestive systems. Its action must also modify the action of other drugs prescribed by the physicians." Continuing this article says: "Postum, the well known cereal beverage, made of clean hard wheat and a small percentage of molasses, has been the means of effecting an easy change from coffee and its harmful stimulant caffeine to a wholesome, harmless, nourishing beverage." Eminent analysts such as Prof. J. W. Mallet of the University of Virginia have proven that a cup of cof fee (only three-fifths coffee and the rest milk) contains about 2 grains of caffeine. A Government report issuing April ith, this year, from the Bureau of Chemistry shows that the deadly coffee drug, caffeine, administered In small doses, caused the death of cats, dogs, rabbits and 'guinea pigs in a few hours.

A younger brother of the dramatist in describing the event said that he wore "a long beard and appeared so weak and drooping and unable to walk that he was forced to be supported and carried by another person to u table, at which he was seated among some company." In "As You Like It" Avon's bard assumed the role of Adam, the old servant, in whom was represented "the constant service of the antique world" and who was "not for the fashions of these times." Famous Gretna Green. Gretna Geen, Scotland, became famous for its celebration of irregular marriages. For many years the aver age number was 500. The ceremony consisted only of an admission, before witness, by the couple that they were husband and wife, this being sufficient to constitute a valid marriage. After this the officiating functionary (for many years a blacksmith), together with two witnesses, signed the mar riage certificate. What He Wanted. The doctor stood at the bedside and looked gravely down at the invalid. "I cannot hide from you the fact that you are very ill." he 6aid. "Is there any one you would like to see?" "Yes." said the sufferer faintly. "Who is it?" "Another doctor." No Obstruction. In the course of a trial st Water bury, Conn., the examiner was trying to get the topography of the country and the relative situation of objects The witness was asked. "Which way does the road run past your house?' xne reply was. "Botn ways, your honor, up and down." Case and CommeuL Touching Him. Visitor 1 saw your husband in the crowd in town today.

Remarkable Daring and Coolness In an Alpine Accident. The architect Viollet le Due was one rlnv on tho SfTixpBrrffnherr elaeier at a height of about 9.000 feet, accompa - nied by Baptiste, the guide, who marched in front The two men were attached to each other by a rope, as is usual in Alpine mountaineering. The guide had passed over a crevasse, but when M. Viollet le Dnc attempted to cross it he failed and fell into the abyss. The guide tried to pull him out, but instead he found himself gradually descending. The architect perceived that his companion if he persisted in the attempt to save him would surely share his fate, and he asked if Baptiste had a family. "A wife and children," was the answer. "Then." said Viollet le Due quietly. "I shall cut the rope." He did so and fell, but a block of Ice thirty feet lower down stopped his descent When Baptiste saw this and that for a time the danger was lessened he went in search of help and returned with four stout peasants. Three hours afterward Viollet le Due was extricated. In spite of his perilous position the ruling passion was strong with the artist, for, although he was almost covered with icicles from the dripping water, he had contrived to make drawings of the novel effects he was able to perceive. 2t"r THAT HEADACHE U""RE IT STOPS YOU it.

Laughing a Wrinkle Cur. Laughing is one of the very best remedies for wrinkles. The old saying, "Laugh and grow fat," is certainly a good rule to observe, for laughing is usually accompanied by a happy, care free mind, and there is no better wrinkle eradicator than a contented disposition. It is simply wonderful how smooth and soft a face becomes If its owner is given to frequent outbursts of hearty j laughter. Smiling alone won't do. Laugh with your mouth and eyes and don't be afraid that it will spoil the beauty of your features, for it will not It may In course of time produce dimpled cheeks or chin, but these are a much coveted possession and sure tc increase and enhance one's beauty. If ill boalth is the cause of wrinkles the best and only thing to do is to consult a doctor. He will soon find out what the trouble is and will treat you accordingly. And why should you wait until the wrinkles have become so deep and pronounced that it will be a dlfllcult matter to remove therr? If the wrinkles were occasioned by worry look the trouble square in the face and see if it is necessary to worry to such an extent if there is not one way out of it. In nine cases out of ten the trouble will seem muck reduced on second sight, for no sorrow is so severe that there is not at least one ray of sunshine to be got out of it if cne has only the firm intention of finding it. Treating the Hair After Sea Bathing. While salt and water very weak is a good tonic for the hair and scalp, sea bathing with the salt left in the hair is about the worst possible thing, and this is the month when women go down to the seashore and stay around in the surf hours at a time. As a daily shampoo with clear soft water would soon take out all the luster and leave an almost dry scalp, the best way to manage is to keep the head covered, and the best thing for a cap is silk rubber cloth. This can be had now in so many tints as well as patterns, checks, stripes, etc, that there is no excuse for such a cap being unbecoming. But the cap should cover the hair, and a narrow rubber run through a hem will keep It in place. After the surf riding or the swim the hair should be let hang as long as possible before being dressed, and if there seems any dampness use a little brush a toothbrush is good with a few drops of cologne, parting the locks at inch intervals and rubbing the scalp until it glows. But if there is any salt In the hair it will have to be sprayed out. This does not mean a thorough shampoo, but a good spray with perfectly fresh, clean water, first warm, then cold, and a good rubbing after. The Idea is to get the hair dry without the real washing entailed by a regular shampoo. Good Freckle Lotion. For freckles there is a lotion which Is very good Indeed. It consists of chopped cucumbers or cucumbers cut in slices with all the Juice In them. They are then bound upon the face in such a way that the Juice will dry on. For freckled and chapped hands there is a bath of witch hazel and cucumber juice in equal parts. This can be applied to the skin with a little sponge. After it has been on fifteen minutes it can be washed off with soap and water, for there is something unpleasant about the nicest lotion when it is allowed to dry upon the skin. The summer skin is a matter of much anxiety, for in the summer all would have a nice complexion, yet it is extremely difficult when the sunshine brings its blemishes, and the very winds are laden with tan and freckles. The Time For Massage. Night is the time to massage the face for the removal of wrinkles. The tired lines must be smoothed out and the muscles of the face braced np before 6leep is sought, so that ail strain and tension are removed from the features during sleep. First all dust should be taken away from the skin. Many women will say in reply to this: "There is no dust or grime to remove. My face is quite clean." Ton are making a big mistake there, for it is really qnite im- ' Possible to prevent the pores of the skin from collecting some dust during the day Good Reason. "Why do you call your auto 'she?

WASHINGTON'S HUMOR.

A Dinner Invitation That Shewed the General' Genial Side. In spite of the general opinion to the contrary, Washington wa not an especially grave and austere man. lie had a sense of humor and could make or enjoy a Joke as well as any one. From Professor C F. Holliday'a "Wit and Humor of Colonial Days" is taken this letter, written to invite a friend, with the ladles of his family, to dine with the general. There is no date, but there is some reason to think that the note may have been written from Valley Forge. It shows the grave and burdened soldier In a pleasantly genial light: "Since our arrival at this happy spot we have had a ham, sometimes a shoulder of bacon, to grace the bead of the table, a piece of roast beef adorns the foot, and a dish of beans or greens, almost Imperceptible, decorates the center. "When the cook has a mind to cut a figure, which 1 presume will be the case tomorrow, we have two beefsteak pies or dishes of crabs In addition, one on each side of the center dish, dlvld ing the space and reducing the distance between dish and dish to about six feet, which without them would be near twelve feet apart. Of late he has had the surprising sagacity to discover that apples will make pies, and it is a question if in the violence of his efforts we do not get oue of apples Instead of having both of beefsteaks. "If the ladles can put up with such entertainment and will submit to partake of it on plates once tin, but now iron (not become so by the labor of scouring), I shall be happy to see them." STAMPING A LETTER. A Swindler's Way of Doing It Brought Him to Grief. "Whether a man is a criminal or a law abiding citizen, he ought to take the pains to stick his postage stamps on exactly straight." an old detective said. "If he is straight he won't lose anything by it, and if he is crooked he will gain. When 1 was in the government service the first thing 1 found out about a roan under suspicion was the way he stuck on bis stamps. One of the cleverest swindlers I ever landed was tracked through his postage stamps. "After you put a stamp on a certain way for a little while it becomes second nature, and yon stick it on that way unconsciously. That was what that man did. All his. stamps were stuck on diagonally, leaving a little triangle of a certain size at the corner of the envelope. He was a slippery fellow and had eluded vigilance for months. "One day I happened to be loitering around a postofflce of a country town, where I bad gone on another trail. The mall came in. and through the little window 1 watched the postmaster sort It Presently 1 spotted an envelope with the stamp stuck on In that triangular fashion. I got the postmark, hiked back to that town and nabbed my man. If he had put bis stamps on straight probably be never would have been caught" New Tork Times. Rousseau on Show. Rousseau created a sensation when be visited England in 1760. "Rousseau and his Armenian dress." wrote Lord Charlemont "were followed by crowds when be first arrived In London, and as long as this species of admiration lasted be was contented and happy. Garrick not only gave a supper In his honor, but played two characters specially to please him. Rousseau was highly gratified, but Mrs. Garrick declared that she bad never spent a more unpleasant evening In her life, the philosopher being so anxious to display himself and hanging over the front of the box so much that she was obliged to hold blm by the skirts of his coat to prevent blm from falling over into the pit" Helping Father. It was Sunday afternoon, and the curate, calling unexpectedly to visit a member of his flock, found him out In two senses. The gentleman's young son came to the door and announced his father's absence. "He's gone to the golf club," said be casually, and then, rending perhaps some shade of disapproval In the parson's eyes, he extenuated thus: "He's not gone to play golf, you know, not on a Sunday; only to drink beer and have a game of cards." Having thus cleared his father's character, he shut the door on the dumfounded cleric London Answers. Involved. "Pop. Is patience a virtue?" "Yes, my son." "And virtue Is its own reward?" "So we are told." "And do all thlnps come to those who know bow to wait?" "See here, my son. never attempt to monkey with the proverbial buzzsawT Puck.

The Theaters

Never was there so devilish a vil- j lain as Mr. Edwin Wolcott in "The1 Two Orphans" the ancient and honorable theatrical classic which wm put on at the Murray yesterday and played to crowded houses nor such sweet, persecuted little martyrs as Miss Mack and Miss Weir. Nor 6uch a noble marquis as Mr. Simmons, nor such a sinister and vindictive old harpy of the slums as Flora Frost. Nor yet so elegantly attired a valet as Mr. Coyle. nor heretofore the like of the white-hearted unfortunate cripple as Mr. Lewis. Through six acts did the audience more or less lachrymosely follow the fortunes and misfortunes of the gentry of the gutters and of the Faubourg St. Germain and filed contentedly out after the final curtain for had the villain not been foiled again and the lovely orphans restored to their heritage? Such hisses for the villainy of the tormentors of virtue and such aprlause and cheers over those who came just in the nick of time to give them succor, have rarely been heard within the purlieus of a Richmond theater. Miss Jean Weir made her first appearance as "llenriette" and display ed the possession of much dramatic acumen and Miss Mack gave a realistic presentation of the blind girl. As stilted and out of all semblance to life as it really is, as is this old play, it is still one of those melodrajmas that will go rattling down the theatric years since it is replete witn thrills and those violent contrasts between virtue and vice loved of the gallery. Miss Frost and Mr. Wolcott gave Balzacian interpretations to their roles, for, unreal as the other characters may have been, the prototypes of these two may be found even now in the slums of Pans. The absence of Miss Mable Frost, the leading lady of the company since the latter's engagement here, was yesterday noticeable in the caste and commented upon in the audience. Miss Frost left for her home in Boston on Sunday afternoon and will not appear again in Richmond this summer. Miss Frost, through her theatric versatility and refined personality, made a place for herself in the affecChildren Cry

tions of the patrons of the Murray, which cannot be filled and her admirers deplore her departure before the close of the company's engage-

i ment in this city, since her presence has largely contributed to the remarkably successful run the latter has had here. This column has before referred to Miss Frost's qualities of mind and Individuality which have lent themselves to her artistic presentation of the numerous roles in which she has been seen here. And these are many, some twenty in number. Although her theatric art was not built along the most virile lines, her intelligent comprehension of every role in which she played and Its consequent interpretation, her unusual refinement and her charming Ingenuousness, her distinct enunciation and excellent reading of her lines, gave her acting a dramatic value, recognized and applauded, and an equilibrium to every play tn which she appeared. As stated here the other day Miss Frost possessed the femininity of a heroine of Jane Austen rather than that of the modern day. and the added alue of this type to a profession In which it Is rare, is Incalculable. Miss Frost's many friends here wish her success. It was announced yesterday that her place would be taken by Miss Allen, a well known stock actress. K. O. W. Drawing the Disease Out.
