It does make me so tired to hear uncle going on like that." A still more effective re buke was administered by a clever lady of my acquaintance to a cousin of hers, a young lady who hud Just re turned from India and was very full of her experiences. The cousin b:id devoted herself during breakfast to giving a lively description of social life In India and was preparing to spend the jnornlng In continuing her lecture when the elder lady slipped out of the room and returned with some sermon paper, a blotting book end a pen.

Oue cannot look be hind and paddle the windmill stroke I heard the crest of the wave hissing and churning, aud theu my board was lifted snd flung forward. I scarcely knew what hapiwned the flrst half minute. Though I kept my eyes open, I could not see anything, for I was buried lu the rushlug white of the crest. But I did not mind. I was chiefly conscious of ecstatic bliss at having caught the wave. At the cud of the half minute, however, I began to see things and to breathe. I saw that three feet of the nose of my board was clear out of water and riding on the air. I shifted my weight forward aud made the nose come down. Thai I lay, quite at rest lu the midst of the wild movement and watched the shore nnd the bathers on the lieach grow distinct. I didu't cover quite a quar ter of a mile on that wave, because to prevent, the board from diving I shift ed in.v weight back, but shifted it too far and fell down the rear sloe of the wave." .luck London In Woman's Home Companion. low BATES Mason jars $ Economy jars WILL HE MADK BY THE O. dZ, ST- THIS PKAHON AS FOLLOWS: ROUND TRIP TO DIRiCCT Chicago $72.50 St. Louis 67.50 St. Paul 63.15 Omaha 60.00 Kansas City 60.00 TICKETS WILL BE ON BaLK June 5, 6, 19, 20 July 6, 7, 22, 23 August 6, 7, 21, 22 Good for retui n in 90 days with stoover privileges at pleasure within limits.
