She had prepared a tempting little supper,
and hei economical soul revolted at the

cake, which she had purchased at a neigh

and endeavored to induce her husband to
eat a portion of It, but he did not like cuke.
She wns determined, however, that some
body should eat it, and she offered it to the
hall and elevator boys, of which there were
four. They accepted It with outuusiaam
and quickly disposed of It.
The following day every boy wns sick
very sick. A doctor was called, and Ids
investigations led to the suspicion that
something wns the matter with that cuke.
He said that the hoys had undoubtedly
been poisoned. The confectioner's shop
was visited, aud the story of the mtsetiief
breeding cake was told to htm. He hml

of it they were glad that they had misun

Indian Chess.
Indian chess, or "chnturanga," la played
with a rajab, an elephant, a horse and a
ship, and four foot soldiers, corresponding
to a king, a castle, a knight, and a biahop
and four pawns, and there are four play
ers, bach player faces bis partner, and
places his pieces lu the order of ship, horse,
elephant and rajah, beginning at the left
baud corner the four foot soldiers being
of course in front. Partners are thusou

game, apparently from the "Bhaviahya

double chess, but to obstruct the opponent
who has to play next. The game is dis

Do Not Bleep on Tour Left Bide.
When a patient complains of a bad taste
in his mouth every morning on waking up,
the first question I ask him is as to the po
sition he assumes when going to sleep.
An immense number of people sleep on
the left side, and this is the most common
cause of the unpleasant tuste which is gen
erally attributed to dyspepsia. If a meal
has been taken within two or three hours
of going to bed, to sleep on the left side is
to give the stomach a task which it Is dif
ficult in the extreme to perform. The
student of anatomy knows that all food en
ters and leaves the stomach on the right
side, and hence sleeping on the left side
soon after eating involves a sort of pump
ing operation which is anything but con
ducive to sound repose.
The action of the heart is also Interfered
with considerably, and the lungs are un
duly compressed. It Is probable that lying
on the back is the most natural position,
but few men can rent easily so, and hence it
is best to cultivate the habit of sleeninir on
the right side. It Is very largely a matter
of habit, and the sooner it Is acquired the
better for the sleeper and the worse for the
physician. Interview in Bt. Louis Globe-Democrat.

divine assistance, to be her faithful and
loving husband." The bride repeated a
similar declaration, the certldaite of mar

dresses from Scriptural texts were made,
prayers were offered, and the ceremony
