Previous to bis alteration to the so- aretgnty Jerome Houaparte bad formed friendship with sema young authors at that time to vogue for their wit and reck lata gayaty. j On tbe, evening after, his nomination to the crown of West pbalta.be met two of his Jovial com pauidn Jul as be was, leaving ths theater.

Tbe. three chatted and la turned and aald and did a thousand ot those foolish tilings which wben un- premeditated as so dellgbtfuL It may be supposed that tbe conversation waa not kept up without drinking, wben tha wine they bad drunk began to take effect, "My goad friends." aald Jerome, "why should we quit each other? If you approve of my proposal you shall accompany me. ..You, G, shall be my secretary. Aa for you, P, wbo are j fond of books, I appoint you my libra- rian." The arrangement waa accept ed and ratified over a freab bottle of champagne.

He seemed to take the frolic In good part and merely requested to know tbeir names. Having told him, tbe restau rateur set ni customer down as sharpers and threatened to send for tbe commissary of police. This alarm ed Jerome, who, seeing that the res taurateur doubted them, banded over his watch In payment This watch had been a present from Napoleon, and on tbe back waa tbe emperor's cipher In brilliant On examining the watch the restau rateur concluded that it bad been atolen and took tt to tbe commissary of police. The latter, recognizing tbe Imperial cipher, ran with It to tbe pre fect. The prefect flew to the minister of the interior, and be in turn went to the emperor at St Cloud. . Next morn ing the Monlteur contained an ordi nance In which Jerome waa ordered to Westphalia at once and prohibited from conferring any appointments till hlii arrival at bis capital. T.

The worst thing that can hap pen to our teetb Is for them not to have enough to do. It is tbe worst thing that can happen to ua atoo. Spir itualized and cultured as we have be come, we still fight the battle of life with our teeth, though we no longer chew our enemies' ears or throats. Bone cored, enamel coated and rock ribbed as the bills, our teetb are more absolutely under our control tban almost any other structure of the body. Neglect them and they decay at once. Give them proper attention and they wfll go on repairing themselves for forty, fifty sixty years. Give children plenty of roughening food to chew, and they will get the pearly .vigor, o( the savage tooth with the. endurance or tne yaucasian-s. Above, all. te ood should be of such a character as to give exercise and massage to the gums. Part of this can be glveo by plenty of coarse food ia addition to real food not as a BUbsti- tute for It and part by intentional and vitttraua friction with the toothbrush. To brush "the gamaT welf is "half the value of brushing tbV teeth. Keep the mouth and gums strictly clean, and tbe teetb will take care of themselves. There are thirty-three dis tinct named and labeled aorta of bacilli or buga in our mouths aa normal parlor boarders, but they'll behave with per fect propriety unless you give them carrion to get drunk on. Dr: Woods Hutchinson in Survey. 7 - Bill Lange's Long Hit. In an article on "Batting" in the American Magazine Hugh a Fuller ton describes aa follows tha longest hit ever .recorded: -1' "Lange, wbo waa of tin middle agea of tbe game, made a hit m Cincinnati which is regarded by many as the longest hit ever made. Tha ball clear ed the center field fence, which "was on top of a high embankment palled across Western avenue, went through the window of a saloon and was found behind the bar. The hit made fortune for tbe saloon, aa big crowds went to aee the ball on exhibition." ' Demesti Eofmy. , 1 "My wife threatened If I didn't get ber a new hat she'd go home to ber mother."

Well. she said,' aa a matter of fact, my robe bad come anfaatened and were falling off, and I was holding them on. but 1 shall now purposely make them slip In the same way.' And that pose waa repeated nightly during tbe run of tbe play.

They Are Net the 8oeiety People Who Get the Advertising. "Society people are supposed to be the biggest offenders." said a treasury official, "but it is simply that they get more publicity: We bad a Harlem butcher wbo smuggled in $1,000 worth of jewels and tben got trapped be cause he tooa an orange irom ine table after lunch. He put tbe orange In his pocket and tbe bulge drew the inspector's attention. He waa search ed and tbe jewels fonnd.

He sold bis old one and brought the famous Strad back in his own case, covered as it was with cus tom, stamp. Naturally the inspectors passed It but tbo musician boasted of his violin, and a dealer wbo went to see it beard tbe story of its purchase and notified us. "There waa a man from Naples wbo came in with bis shirt fairly lined with Jewels, and there are the Syrians wbo smuggle In laces aDd handker chiefs, and there are tbe manufactur ers wbo declare balf or three-quarters In and smuggle tbe rest "There are automobile men who bring tbeir machines in with faked certificates of value, and there are buyers of cheap Jewelry wbo bring In great cases of plated brooches and bracelets, etc., with magnificent sap phires, rubles and even diamonds net in with bits ot glass, and these neces- altate weeks of; work tor the jewel ex perts in the appraiser's stores."

"A light rain was falling, and as the woman in front of me stepped out she opened ber umbrella. Oat of it fell a jeweled hatpin, a pair of gloves and two men's handkerchiefs. On: its face It seemed like a ease of shoplifting, but as she gathered up tbe articles tbe woman said: "Well if here r isn't Mary's emerald hatpin and the gloves 1 was looking for last week and two of George's best handkerchiefs.

While ta thla town I saw even slave, who were nem ny the leg in i wooden stocks. They .had been In that position for some 'montba. One oT.tbem told me through tbe Interpreter that be bad been kept thus for two years. He waa man of poor physique, and a pur chaser could not therefore be "easily found for him. "That night while asleep In my little hut In tbe towni I waa awakened by hearing a gentle chorua of worn en's voices singing some yards away, After a few minutes tbe chorus ceased and a single voice began. In Bande, an African song. Tbe voice waa soft and melodlone, and tbe run waa fas cinating and weird and harmonized with tbe wild environment to .which It belonged. After a few lines tbe other singers joined, and tbe result was most attractive and beautiful. containing as It did such delicate har mony with excellent taste. During the years I have been In Africa 1 do not remember having beard anything quite like this singing before, and I ahall never forget it The interpreter told me tbe next morning that tbe song was to tbe good spirits, asking them to guard and protect the white man and his followers on their Jour ney." Another Incident: "A few yards out- side the first stockade I noticed an empty grave, the newly turned earth of which showed It bad been recently dug. This grave. It appeared, bad been used for theTburnose of burrine a man alive as a sacrifice, and I was informed in a most matter of fact ,way apd as If tbe occurrence was quite an ordinary one that tbe un fortunate victim's ' body had lately been exhumed to obtain certain por tions for the purpose of manufactur ing fetish medicines." THE LION'S HEAD. Origin of Its Use as a Deooration For Fountains. "The sun glows in the Lion," says Seneca, meaning that when tbe sun enters the sign of Leo at tbe summer solstice the highest temperature of tbe year Is experienced. We may say, on the other band, that tbe Babylonian astrologers thousands of years ago placed the king of beasts, tbe fiery and ferocious lion, in that part of tbe zo diac which the sun enters at the sum mer solstice. The constellation which is called Leo bears very little resemblance to tbe outline of a lion. Probably the name was originally applied only to its prin cipal star, Regulus. It is to this con stellation in the zodiac that we owe tbe countless water spewing lions' beads which are found In ancient and modern fountains, because In the latter part of July, while tbe sun ia still in the sign of Leo, tbe Nile is at its high eat level Furthermore, tbe lion's bead with widely open Jaws is in itself very suit able for the mouth of a fountain or waterspout This decorative motif was employed universally throughout the Greco-Roman world. Lions' beads are found used in this way at Athens, Ephe sus. Olympla, Agrigentum and count less other places. It is not quite cer tain that this employment of tbe lion's bead originated in Egypt Curtius de scribes an Assyrian bas-relief from Balran showing water streaming from a ring shaped vessel. A Hon stands aa If on guard on either side of the foun tain. The water dock, which was uBed In Judicial proceedings, had the foriri of a lion and a name which means the guardian of tbe stream. Hence tbe idea or protection may nave oeen tne origin of the association of lions with fountains, and this custom may have originated in Asia. Scientific Ameri can. The Rival Roses. Perhaps the two most famous flow era Ini history are associated with the Temple gardens, for, according to tra dition, it was in the gardens In 1430 that the two' leaders plucked the red and white' roses which became the badges of the rival houses of Lahcas- te? and -Tork, The garden were for centuries famous for tbeir . rosea,.

Sparrow, the popular pastor of Union and Olney churches has held the pastorate for the past 17 years. He is deservedly popular with all of his people. An Interesting feature of the ap proaching dedicatory services will be the presence of several former pastors of this church who will par ticipate in the exercises. Among the number will be Rev. W.
