There are no fairer set of men on earth than the doctors, and when they find they have been in error they are usually apt to make honest and manly admission of the fact. A case in point is that of a practi- tioner, one of the good old school, who lives in Texas. His plain, unvarnished tale needs no dressing up: “I had always had an intense preju- dice, which I can now see was unwar- rantable and unreasonable, against all muchly advertised foods. Hence, I never read a line of the many ‘ads’ of Grape-Nuts, nor tested the food till last winter, “While in Corpus Christi for my health, and visiting my younges who has four of the ruddiest, h little boys I ever saw, I ate my first dish of Grape-Nuts food for supper with my little grandsons. “I becam ceedingly fond of it and have eaten a package of it every week since, and find it a delicious, refreshing and strengthening food, leaving no ill effects whatever, sing no eructations (with which I was formerly much trou- bled), no sense of fullness, nausea, nor distress of stomach in any way. “There is no other food that agrees with me so well or sits as lightly or pleasantly upon my stomach as this does, “Lam stronger and more active since I began the use of Grape-Nuts than I have been for 10 years, and am no longer troubled with nausea and indigestion.’"’ Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

They are genuine, true, and of human interest. THE HAREM SKIRT AS WORN BY MAY BOLEY IN “THE BALKAN PRINCESS” AT THE CASINO THEATER. Verses to the Harem Skirt. by MINNA IRVING. 1f woman wears the harem skirt, As she is bound to do, That dream of Oriental style So trouser-like to view, 1 wonder will she, when it rains, Turn up the bottoms too. If woman wears the harem skirt, Dame Fashion's last decree, As nearly like a pair of pants As anything can be, It ought to rise in favor like A bunch of July rockets, For she at last has no excuse ‘To be deprived of pockets. A New Variety. A prominent politician in the middle West gave a banquet to a score or so of his neighbors, and, as he lived in a “dry'’ State and wanted some way to serve wine at the dinner, he had some trouble figuring out ascheme; but when the watermelon was brought on, it was found it had been plugged and filled with champagne. ‘‘And, do you know,” said one of the guests, ‘‘I saw every farmer there slipping some watermelon seeds into his pocket!""—Milwaukee Free Press.

Sammy’s parents were trying to en- courage him to form a taste for solid reading. With this end in view, they induced him, by the promise of a sub- stantial reward, to read a certain num- ber of pages every day in Motley’s ‘Rise of the Dutch Republic.”” He began it bravely and for several weeks stuck to his task without mur- muring. Then he began to lose interest in the book. Fora boy of his age this immortal work was rather heavy read- ing, and he asked if he might not be permitted to skip it every other day. What is the matter, Sammy?”’ asked his father. ‘*Don’t you find it interest- ing?” “It’s kind o’ monotonous,’’ he an- Swered. ‘‘Then suppose you read just one page aday.”’ “No; I'm tired of readin’ about the rise of a republic. Let me try the ‘De- cline and Fall of the Roman Empire’ for a while.’’—Youth’s Companion, The Difference. Grad (reminiscently)—‘A fellow be- fore marriage is generally a dude."
