At dark they followed a crowd to where some elaborate fireworks were to bo sent off. "Timothy, what are you going to do?" said Betsey Jane, alarmedly, as the old man made a spring for a platform.

"Once upon a time,' so the In­ structive fable runs, the ideal hus­ band married the ideal wife, and everybody foresaw that they should have an ideal family, live ideal years, and end in ideal assurance of future beatitude. They were so ideal that everybody thought it superfluous to give them any wedding presents, for what gifts could add to the content of an ideal pair? Notody went to the wedding because the ideal perfection of the man rebuked all other men, and the ideal woman's presence caused other ladies to feel somewhat out of the highest fashion. Duly the ideal pair went to live in an ideal house in an ideal suburb ••Straightway- it began to appear that the two Perfections were wasted on one another. The ideal wife couldn't • exercise her virtues on a husband who had never a fault or a whim. He wanted nothing that he hadn't--he was invariably placid. She perceived in him nothing needing chantfe--no mote in him, hody or mind,on which she thought she could judiciously employ her ideal ingenu­ ity. '•At the end of one Week she Jiad yawned more than in all her previous life, which had been passed with un- ideal or imperfect beings. Sad as her case was, what of the ideal husband's? With a nervous, a fretful, a wildly hilarious, a jealous, or a flirtatious wife his virtues would haveshone-^ but with one ideally healthy, wise, and good he had no chance to dis­ play his ideal nature. These two were, of course, too perfect to even feel like complaining--they were so ideal that they merely recognized that ideal bliss was a bore. "And so they lived till their neigh- bors, wondering why the ideal pair had not been at the orthodox church, ventured into their house and found them opposite one another with their ideal hands politely, covering their id al mouths, which were wide open and apparently rigid, in an unending ideal yawn. 4'In this condition they had been nobody knew how long, but it had fretted away their ideal patience. When the doctor closed their ideal jaws, the husband hastily said several naughty words, whereupon nis wife remarked, 'Brute!'and fell into wild weeping. Then she sought a divorce for his cruelty in sweatIor in her presence, and he took a cross action on account of incompatibility of temper. "On this latter ground the court eranted them release, with the sage remark that the first requisite of an ideal wife or husband is a wicked partner. This impressed them so deeply that she married an English­ man and he a virago--for this was before all ladies became angelic. 44After they had daily chances to display their ideal dispositions, both came to be more widely than ever known as the ideal wife and the Ideal husband."--New Y ork Recorder.

Spohr, be­ ing invited to play before the King, Informed the 'chamberlain that he must decline the honor unless the King abstained from card-playing. The chamberlain was horrifled, but the violinist insisted, and the King conceeded the point. But in Order that the royal time might not be wholly occupied in listening, he stip­ ulated the two pieces set down the program Jor Spohr should fol low each other. Nevertheless, his Majesty showed that the violinist's demand had ruffled the royal temper. Etiquette pre scribed that the King should give the signal for applauding. At the con elusion of each piece the King gave no signal, and a solemn silence reigned in the salon. The King had his small revenge. The King of Bavaria- was a'gentle­ man.

Tbe proper administration of proper food has much to do with the restora­ tion of sick persons to health) and it is equally true that illness may often be avoided by the avoidance of food or drink which is irrit gestive organs. The food of children Should receive special attention. During the age of growth,- the di­ gestive organs are taxed severely to supply the enormous amount of nutri­ ment necessary for the building up of the body. Comparatively few parents realize the important part which diet plays in the production of physical ro­ bustness. v ; A ohild who is puny, pale and saltaw is likely to become an adult of inferior mental and physical capabilities, and excessive fatness in childhood is much to be feared. Either conditi^i invites disease, and parents should know that much may bo done to avoid both excessive leanness and excessive fatness by an intelligent and persistent attention to the child's diet. f Acute and chronic inflammations of the stomach are very common among children, especially between two and twelve years of age. These attacks are sometimes induced by exposure to cold, but oftener by the'eating of im- • proper food. Two kinds of food es­ pecially lead to such disorders--irri­ tating food and easily fermentable food. The first is a food which is not easily digested, and hence, by its continued presence, acts as an irritant. s\ Easily fermentable food is that which is acted upon quickly by certain ferments, in­ cluding the yeast and the alcoholic fer­ ments. % ' This process gives rise to the forma­ tion of gases and acids in the stomach and duodenum. All this results in a greater flow of mucus from the surface of the stomach. In the mild cases "a, bilious attack" supervenes. In other cases the attack is more severe: a chilly feeling or a chill will ensue, fol­ lowed by fever, frontal headache, rest­ lessness or delirium, a dry and coated or a fiery tongue. The complexion la sallow, the appetite lost, and dark cir­ cles appear under the eyes. 3 The most important part ot the treats iment is preventive. Candy and sweets •are among the most easily fermentable things swallowed by children. A child's diet should bo strictly watched over, and not left to the child's own instincts. 1 % % Ms * A Delightful Way to Be entertained the fact thut li£ht literature is an almost necessary traveling companion, to thoee contemplating a "SummerOuting." >or thoa» who are desirous of visiting some of the many resorts and fishing grounds located along the line of the Wisconsin Central Lines, we take pleasure In ad­ vising our friends that we will seud any one or all of tbe following valuable and Interesting books to any address by mail "Free" on receipt of 12 cents each, lj*! stamps, to cover postage and packing.

By m Base. years ago the Abbe Liszt was staving In Rome, but be was not easily Induced to play when in the salons of the Italian nobility. A young princess, w(ho was desirous that the Abbe should tavor her at her party with a display ot his musical talents, resorted to a ruse. She had noticed that whenever Liszt was present at a social gather- ing.hcr friends bad taken special care to open the piano, and in such cases it was almost impossible to get the artist to touch the instrument. At her own soiree she locked the piano and put tbe key in her pocket Liszt was spared on that occasion any request to play, and all the even­ ing no mention was made of his art. This unusual attitude evidently sur­ prised him. Presently he began to walk to and fro in a nervous manner before the locked Instrument.

Cystic tumors, or what are popularly known as "wens," occasionally appear on tho scalp. Many victims, notwith­ standing the annoyance thoy suffer from them, fear to have them removed, owing to the prejudice that cancers are liable to form in their places. A wen is about as harmless an abnormal growth a8_ can be conceived of. If small, and it can be easily concealed by the hair, it is scarcely worth while to meddle with it: but if large enough to be unsightly, it will be well to have it removed by the surgeon. The opera­ tion is very simple, and ordinarily causes but little pain, as the scalp iV. not very' sensitive. The wen is first laid open: then the sac is caught by a pair of forceps and lifted out. The wound heals in a few days. A man of ordinary nerve can have: Ave or six small wens removed at one sitting with­ out taking an anaesthetic. They are filled with a cheesy-like, fatty material., If injured .by a blow, or in any other way, a wen is quite liable to inliame, ulcerate, and open, and give off a very! offensive discharge, which persists for1 a long time. Finally it runs "itself out," and the tumor disappears. Various appliances are tried by those who have wens--iodine is a popular one--but none ot theni,(k>t'ttpyiVgQod. The only way to. remove them is with the knife. In spme i.qstanees, charla­ tans have pronounced small cyst'fc tu­ mors to be cancerous growthfe, and ap­ plied their marvelous cures in tho shape of caustics; By those the inno­ cent tumors were inflamed, ulcerated, and converted into very bad sores. When healed, as, of course, they did in time, it was claimed that the so- called cancers were cured. ------11 • I - I • i I --•»-- When Traveling, Whether on pleasure bent, or business, take on every trip a bottle of fiyrup of Figs, &s it acts most pleasantly and ef­ fectually on the kidneys, liver and bowels, preventing fevers, headaches and other forms of sickness.
