Like wise a mince pie should never be cut with a knife, but held whole with tbe fingerr, and eaten that way: also to eat as many mince pies as possible at as many different bouses before Christmas.

Whin Woman Admirid Whisker*. For ages beards were the delight of ancient beauties. Tbe sight of a shaved chin excited sentiments of borror aud aversion. To obey the Injunctions of his bishops Louis VII. of France crop ped his hair a la pompadour and shaved off bls luxuriant whiskers. Eleanor Aqultane. his consort, found him with this uncommon appearance very ridic ulous and very contemplate. She re venged herself by becoming something more than a coquette. The king ob tained a divorce. Sbe then married the Count of Anjou, who shortly aft erward ascended tbe English throne, and gave him as her marriage dower the rich provinces of Poitou and Gul- enne. And this was tbe origin of those wars which for 300 years rav aged France and which cost the French nation 3.000.000 men. all of which probably had never taken place If Louis VII. bad not been so rasb as to shave off his whiskers, by which be made himself so disgusting to the fair Eleanor.—New York Press. What Killed th* Adjutant? A good story from the regimental Journal of the “Fighting Fifth" con cerns Colonel (then Captain) FitzRoy and dates back to 1860. FitzRoy was possessed of an air gun. and one after noon be took a shot at an adjutant, a bird which, being an excellent scaven ger. Is protected from Injury by a fine of 100 rupees. Several people saw the bird fall, but heard no report There was, of course, a hubbub, and a court of Inquiry was ordered to Investigate the bird's death. As luck would have it, FitzRoy was appointed president of the court, the finding of which was duly recorded as follows: "The court, having carefully investigated all the evidence brought before It have come to the conclusion that the bird died of sunstroke."— (Signed) Phil FitzRoy.

While passing electric cur rents through milk to sterlize it Mr. Frye found a soft, white, elastic sub stance, probably the casein, which has resulted in a product that he calls ouisite. Sixteen pounds of omsite can be produced from 100 pounds of Rkim milk, the latter having a market value of 8 cents for 100 pounds.

Because you have contracted ordinary colds and recovered from them without treatment of any kind, do not for a moment imagine that cold« are not dangerous Everyone knows that pneumonia and chronic catarrh have i their origin in a common cold, Con- sumption is not cauaed by a c«»ld hut the cold prepares the system for J.e re ception and development of the germs that would not otherwise have found lodgment. It is the same with all in. factious diseases Diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles and whooping cough are much more likely to be contracted when the child has a cold You will s«*e from this that more real danger larks in s cold than in any other of the common ailments. The eaaieat and Quickest way to cures cold is to take Chamberlain’«« Cough Remedy, The many remaibable cures effected by this preparaiion have made it a staple article of trade over a large pert of the world.
