LOVE ON A BIG SCALE. Dr. Pierce Underhill cently delivered a lecture on divorce ina fashionable church in Indi- anapolis. “Extrava- gance,”’ he be- gan, ‘is one of the big causes of divorce. My cousin, a bank clerk,“ arried a pretty girl and took her home :o a nice little flat. But she fro’ and bit her lip. «0}, Jack,’ she said, ‘I can’t live in atiny (ot like this! re- “You don’t love me when you say that, darling,” said my cousin. “Oh, yes, Ido,’ said she; ‘but not on such a small seale.’"* A BIG REVENUE CUTTER. Dr. Charles F. Aked, the pastor of the eller’? church in New York ntly gave the young women of his congregation some excellent ad- vice about matrimonial extravagance. “Compared with the English girl, the n girl is a great spendthrift. Shortly after the return of the fleet two ficers were talking about their wives. Naturally they used nautical terms, ‘What a dear little craft your wife is!’ said the first. ‘Dear and lit- tle,’ did you say? She is dear, all right, but there is nothing little about her. Why, she is the biggest revenue cutter Ihave ever seen.’"” FEASTS AND FASTS OF THE CHURCH. At a Washington Birthday banquet Senator Albert J. Beveridge, of Indiana, is said to have spoken of the cynical side of Washington. ‘‘At one time, said the Senator, ‘Washington was di eussinyr religious rites with a distin- guished churchman, In the course of his remarks he said, ‘Both the feasts and the fasts of the church are excep- tionally well kept. The feasts are kept by the rich and the fasts by the poor.’ ’”” The routine use of PackER’S TAR SOAP and the emergency use of _ Packer's Cutaneous Charm (a healing, soothing lotion), offer the most satisfactory and reliable means for protecting the skin against “Winter Chaps” ‘The Packer Mig.

In the lat- est installment of his autobiography in the Cornhill, he refers, among other | things, to his connection with Sir F. Burnand and the Punch staff. On one |eceasion Mr. Lucy and Sir Francis were talking in the crowded assembly at the foreign office on one of the Queen’s birthday nights. A guest in uniform, starred and medaled, came up and effu- sively shook hands with Burnand, whose reception betrayed some embarrass- ment.

At one of those "possum and ’tater feasts to which President Taft was doing ample justice, one of the hosts re- marked, “The presidency has done your diges- tion a lot of good, hasn’t it?’” “Well, yes," Mr. Taft hesitated; “but I don’t believe I can recommend it’? ‘‘No?_ Why not?”” “Why, my dear sir, just think what a frightful fit of indigestion I would have had if I hadn’t been elected!” said, “I see you don’t know me from | remember I used to walk the twelve) A MATTER OF HANDWRITING. Those who have seen the handwriting of Miss Maxine Elliott, the actress, and of Mr. W. J. Lampton, the “‘yawpist,”” are undecided which one more needs to be put into typewriting before success- ful reading. Recently Mr. Lampton sent one of his verses, which had ap- peared in a magazine, to Miss Elliott. The verse was entitled, ‘‘These Days.”” A few days later Mr. Lampton met a lady at the dog show, who is especially interested in canines, ‘Oh!’ she said, in greeting, ‘I’ve just had a letter from Miss Elliott, in which she mentions hav-| a girl, came up. ing received a lovely poem from you,| ‘“My!’? she exclaimed, in greeting, ‘These Dogs.’ Won't you give me a| with that “nice” manner some women copy of it?”” hand out to other women. ‘I haven't An Open Secret— Every bottle shows why Evans’ is the Ale to-day. lady, who had known Miss Cheatham as MARCH SEVENTEENTH.
