A Smile- From a Stranger.
Most of us owe debts of gratitude to
strangers whoso kindly smile has sent
sunshluo tnto our aching hearts and
has given us courage when we were
disheartened.
It Is a great thing to go through life
with a smiling face. It costs little, but
who can ever estimate Its value?
Think how the pleasure of life would
bo Increased If we met smiling faces
everywhere faces which radiate hope,
auushlue and cheer! What a Joy It
would be to travel In a gallery of liv
ing pictures radiating hope and cour
age! -
Who can estimate what beautiful,
smiling faces mean to the wretched
and the downcast, those whose life
burdens are crushing them?
Many of us carry precious memories
of mulling faces which we glimpsed
but once, but whose sweet, uplifting
expression will remain with Us forever.

Epicures accustomed fo dining In be

of each fashionable place and readily
tolMust why they go to one place or
void another, They have their likes
and dislikes, aside from actual eating,
regarding tho waiters, the music, the
ventilation and a hundred and one
other things a casual visitor would
fall to appelate.
For Instance, at oae restaurant only
single portions are served for one per
son. At another, where the cooking la
equally good, half portions, nearly or
quite as largo as the single portions of
other f laces, are served for oue per
son. There was a little dispute at a
woll known hotel over a mistake In an
order of trout and chicken that made
a difference of several dollars on
check for a rather slmplo dinner for
two. It was settled "out of court," as
It were, and quite agreeably, but hotel
managers regret and try to avoid these
mistakes, especially when the customer
Is regular visitor, for they know he
never forgets the details of his eating
and Is slow to forgive an error. .
Another peculiarity of diners is as to
the location of tables. Some persons

when they find another In their favor

Why Naval Uniforms Are Blue.
Naval uniforms all the world over
pretty well are nary blue. The Brit
ish fashion la this matter has been the
rale with maritime people In general,
That blue was ever selected for the
king's naval service was a fortuitous
happening. When in 1747 the ques
tion of uniform was being considered
the color selected had very like to
have been French gray laced with sll
ver. While the king was still not
quite decided be saw the Duchess of
Bedford In a riding habit of blue
faced with white and enlivened with
gold lace. It was a revelation. Here,
the king declared, was the uniform for
bis sea service officers, and no more
waa heard of French gray. The navy
took to blue, and every other navy has
taken to It since. Fall Mall Gazette.

strong. He says: My mother, who
is old and was verjr-feeble, is deriving
so much benefit from Electric Bitters.
that I feel it's my duty to tell those
who need a tonic and strengthening

case, a marked gain in flesh has re
suited, insomnia has been overcome,
and she is steady growing stronger."
