The women of Hungary regard a small waist as tbe greatest possible beauty, and they will endure anything In order to put ou an appearance of be ing small walsted. Tight lacing Is car ried ou to an extraordinary extent, and the waist is compressed by force until one would think that tbe owner couid hardly breathe. Yet In this confined state the women will plunge Into the wildest of Hungarian dauees, known as the ctardas, and prance frantically like bullet dancers until at the end they sink, gasping, exhausted and well nigh suffocated, ou a sofa. As they grow older most of these slim beauties become enormously stout, and then they are regarded as quite old. The Hungarians, though they resemble the Turks In many ways, have not tbe Turkish admiration for fat women or the English admiration for elderly made up belles. Hungary Is a land of slim young women, and when they lose their figure they lose their attrac tiveness and their power.—Modern So- clety. “Time* I* Changed.” “Y'es, slree. Bill: times is changed since you an' me was doin' our court in'." said Adonlrum Clover, with a note of sadness In bis voice, to old Andy Clover, who had come over to "set a spell.” , "When we was doin' our courtin’, Andy, a gal thought she wiyi bein’ treated right barusom If a feller bought her 10 cents’ wutb o’ pep'mintx once In awhile, an’ If he tuk her to any doln's tn town she didn’t expert him to go down Into hi3 jeans to the tune of a dollar or two for ice cream an' soda water an' candy at fo'ty cents a paound.

The Innocent Young Thing. Tbe manufacturer of a moving pic ture machine was explaining to a group of acquaintances how he had ob tained a series of pictures showing a celebrated massacre that had once taken place at a western army post In the days when Indian warfare was a horrible reality instead of an exhibit on a Broadway stage. “The commander of the post.” he said, "had a detachment of soldiers and another of Indians re-enaet the scene for us. dressed exactly as In the old days, so our machines could secure every detail—the onslaught of the In dians, the defense by the white sol diers. their massacre and the destruc tion of tbe fort.” “It may be very Interesting." said the kindly citizen, “but I should not care to see it in even a picture.” Tbe sweet young thing listened with wide eyes. “And did they really kill the white soldiers for you?" she asked, breath less.—New York Press. Two Arctic Enemies. Since the beginning of time there probably has been enmity between the polar bear and the walrus. Except for tbe walrus, bruin's reign over the arc tic regions has been almost unchal lenged since tbe race of mammoths passed. All the hardy flesh eaters that Inhabit the bleak, unfertile northland are his natural prey. But most of all he depends upon tbe seals and sen Hons for his food. There Is only one animal that Is powerful enough to defend Itself and offspring against the polar bear's attack, the huge and cum brous walrus, but Its movements are so slow and awkward when out of the water that often It Is Impossible for the bulky animal to retard the swift attack and retreat of its smaller opponent.—Frank Stick in St. Nlcb olas. Thrss of Thsm Knew. According to tbe Philadelphia Rec- ord. a boy of eight said to his mother: "Well, there were only three boys In school today who could answer one question that tbe teacher asked us.” "And I hope my boy was one of tbe three." said the proud mother. "You bet I was," answered the young hopeful, "and Sam Harris and Harry Stone were the other two.” “I am very glad you proved yourself so good a scholar, my son; it makes your mother proud of you. What ques tion did the teacher ask. Johnny?" “ 'Who broke that glass in tbe back window?’ " A Reel Romanes. Sometimes there are Instances In life like those in tbe story bboks: An Atchison girl engaged herself to a carpenter, thinking be was poor, and discovered on tbe eTe of her wedding day that be had $150 in tbe bank. He bad not told her. wishing her to lore him for himself alone. — Atchison Globe. A Big Bathtub. STUNTED OAKS. Miniature Trees That Ara Grown In China Bowl*. In the window of a florist stood some quaint china bowls. In each of which grew a tree—not u shrub, but a full sized tree, dating back many years. “Yes," replied the florist to the writ er’s Inquiry, “they are real trees—oaks, maples and beech trees. We get them from Japan, where the secret of how to rear them is known only to a few. They are raised from seeds or special ly selected cuttings, which are watch ed and tended with that marvelous patience inherent In tbe eastern races. Fifty years may pass before the tree Is considered salable. During this pe riod the plant is trained and Its nat ural tendencies subjugated to the will of the rearer. The gardener prunes and trims and rears and directs with what Carlyle called genius—‘an Infi nite capacity for taking pains.' A way ward twig may be bound up for two or three years to Insure its correct growth. Periodically the tree Is re potted. Each time this happens the roots are carefully examined and use less fiber cut away. Everything Is done to concentrate tbe life of the tree In the smallest possible space. And In time, after years of labor, tbe plant loses its ability to send out long, lusty shoots and becomes a delightful miniature of Its larger brethren.”— Montreal Standard. THE NIGERIAN BABY. Water Soaked Inside end Outside at the Morning Toilet. Matrons of tbe west may be Inter ested to hear tbe details of the Nige rian native baby's morning toilet. Anything over three months old Is no longer a “baby” to the native mater- famillas and Is bathed with the other children, generally a numerous brood, In (he chill morulng air before sunrise. The little mite yells lustily while the cold water Is splashed over Its brown body and generally continues tbe cho rus when put aside to dry. Towels do not form part of the household equip ment. The bathing process finished, tbe Infants are subjected to a sort of water cure treatment. The mother seizes a child, scoops up a handful of water and, using her thumb as a kind of spout, squirts it with extraordinary dexterity Into the youngster's mouth ar.d down Its throat. Protests In the shape of loud gurgles, horrible chok ings and desperate struggling are quite unheeded. The steady stream of wa ter continues to pour down the child’s throat until the mother's practiced touch on the patient’s distended stom ach tells her that tbe limit of capacity has been reached. All babies are sub mitted to this treatmeut, which Is be lieved to have a most strengthening effect —London Standard. Advice to Smokers. Here are a number of don’ts for Bmokers, some of which no doubt will surprise a good many men: Don't smoke directly after a meal. There Is the most Irresistible craving to smoke, but it Is wiser to wait a half hour or an hour. Don't smoke out of doors In a high wind or In cold, frosty weather. In the former case it is dan gerous, and in the latter It cracks tbe lips and prevents proper breathing. Don't smoke with tbe cigar or pipe held at the corner of the mouth. This excites the secretion of more saliva than when the cigar or pipe is held straight in front. And, above all, don't get In the bad habit of expecto rating frequently when smoking. It Is quite unnecessary and merely a hab it and harmful.—St. Louis Post-Dis patch. Cures Woman's ISeakn^ea. We refer to that boon to weak, nervoug raftering women known as Ur.
