Mr. nix went up on the piazza and looked Into the living room through n window. The apartment contained cottage furniture, but tho chief attraction wag a largo llrepliwe. "I've a good mind to sleep there to night." lie rfnld to himself and tried tho window to see If It were securely lock ed. It was. but Mr. Pis hunted for a place of Ingress an energetically as he had hunted for game and found one by getting on the plasma roor a window not well accured. Going downstairs, ho opened a door from the Inside, ad mitting htm to the wood house, and Jn a few minute had a tire blazing on tho hearth. Then he settled himself down in an easy chair before It. nnd, look ing at his reflection In a mirror on the mantel opposite him. ho remarked: "Your cotufort Is only equaled by your assurance." And straightway he fell asleep. Now. It happened that this waa nallowuen. and a party of girls wcro coming to spend it, at tills .very cot tage. Flora Stehbtus.. a daughter of the owner, was tho hostess, and tho others were her guests.

Hut only for nn instant If ho hnd been wide nwako ho would doubtless have arisen from his choir Immediately nnd mude nn Investigation. As It was. ho delayed Just lung enough lo nllow the conspirators to make good their es cape, lio did not even hear the sound of wheels, for the carriage bad gono far enough to prevent that. Flora get ting into it near the gate. When Air. Dlx got fairly around he did what he would have been expected to do.

If the woman of fashion of London, Paris or Now York npont as much thus over her toilet as her sister of tho fat cast she would have very llttlo left In which to attend to her social and do nicstlc duties. Tho oriental belie dovotes most of her day to tho preservation of hr health and benuty. She uses man wonderful cosmetics for coloring her eyes nnd brows nnd for beautifying her skin. On nrlslng her hnlr Is dress ed by her maid, who massages the scalp with oil made from aloe wood or cocoanut Tho enstern wnmnii will never interfere with the color of her hnlr. for the long silky blue blank locks are considered her chief charm. Next a very hot bath is prepared, and in this she remains for two or three hours. In place of soap number less unguents nre used, which render the skin as soft as velvet. These deli cate perfumes are secret preparations of the bathing woman. The hair of tho oriental beauty Is beautifully long nnd soft and they have a way of arranging It which adds a distinct charm. Tho face Is washed over with iniJk into which tho juice of a lemon has been squeezed, Perfumes permeate tho garments, but aro seldom If over used on n handkerchief. De troit Free Press. JUST A BOY'S IDEA. It Mode the Invention of the Ronping Machine a Success. In IS"0 Obed ITussey of Ohio wns in venting a reaping machine, the first ever designed In this country, nis chief difficulty wns the cutting device which was- three large sickles set In a frame and revolved so as to cut Into the grain. It would hot work satisfac torily. A young son, watcldng the expert tnents, asked his father why he did not use a lot of big scissors, with one hnn die fastened to one bar and the other handle to a sliding bar. thus opening nnd closing them. Ilussey instantly adopted the idea, substituting for scissors the two saw toothed bladea which aro in common use today on harvesters, tho cutting action being quite similar to that of scissors. From the boy's suggestion he per fected In one week a mnclilno on which lie had in vain exercised nil his in genulty for tho preceding two years. Tho principle of that cutting device is the principle of all of tho great harvest ing machines, and its benefit to the farming Industry of the entire world has been unsurpassed by any other In volition for use on the farm. Georgo F. Strntton, In St. Nicholas. No Great Eater, The Hev. Dr. JOIderbeVry had been 'upon a voyage to the 'south seas and brought hack a young cannibal. The young cannibal ' was called Beebo, Iteebo was turned over to Mrs. Elder berry to be civilized. For full four weeks the good lady Instructed' her charge in (lie theoretical principles of Christian doctrine nnd conduct until she thought he was ripe to put hi training Into practice. "And now, Tleobo," said she one day, "you shall see that what I have taught you is more than mere words. You are to accompany me to the publle kitchen, where I serve fifty poor Schoolboys. You shall help me." Hut the little cannibal shook hi head sndly. "Oli, missy," lie snid, "I'm not bun gry.

The well bears signs of having bon hricked up. Yet It la easy to see that Joseph's dis comfiture could not have been so great as ono might Imagine, for tills well, like all the wells of Egypt, Is of a clr cuinference much larger than these oi today, and Joseph would have been able to exercise his limbs with ease by walking nround it. Moreover, when the Nile is low these wells are quite dry. New York Sun; Diverting His Attention. Cook (7 n. m.) Please, ma'am, tho dog got hold of tho steak that was for bruakfast.
