Cards and Their History.
Cards are square shaped pieces of
pasteboard printed "with various de-
vices and employed s a business me-
dium by money changers. They are
usually made up In packs of fifty-two
one for each week of the year. A good
many people play cards for pleasure.
In "which case their opponents are said
to be buying experience. In most card
games the rule is that the tr.rds may
be cut but not otherwise marked. This
rule Is not strictly observed in games
In "which only three cards are used.
Indeed the marking of cards has at-
tained a high degree of perfection
since the introduction of numerous
card index systems. Fashions change
In card games as in everything else.
Old maid for instance Is nowadays
seldom played in the best clubs. Play- J
Ing cards should not be confused with
Bcore cards which are rather larger
or with visiting cards which are small-

WIND AND WAVES.
A Gale's Action Upon Water Desert
-Sand and Prairie Snow.
There are wind waves In the water
sand and snow. The great sea waves
are produced at that part of a cyclone
where the direction of the wind coin-
cides with the direction of advance of
the depression. Along this line of ad-
vance the waves in their progress are
accompanied by a strong w'Ind blowing
across their ridges as long as the at
mospheric depression Is maintained
So the waves are developed until they
become steep. The average height in
feet is about half the velocity of the
wind In miles.
A wind of fifty-two miles an hour
gives waves of an average height of
twenty-six feet although individual
waves will attain a height of forty
feet The prevailing wind in nil long!
tudes is westerly so wherever a west
erly wind springs up It finds a long
westerly swell the effect of a previous
wind still running and the princlpa
effect of the newly born wind is to
Increase the steepness of the already
running long swell so as to form
majestic storm waves which some-
times nttaln a length of 1200 feet
from crest to crest. The longest swells
due to wind are almost Invisible dur
Ing storms for they are masked by
the shorter and steeper waves but
they emerge Into view after or beyond
the storm.
The action of the. wind to drift dry
sand in a procession of waves Is seen
In the deserts. As the sand waves
cannot travel by gravitation their
movements are entirely controlled by
the. wind and they are therefore much
simpler and more regular In form and
movement than ocean waves. In their
greatest heights of several hundred
feet the former become more complex
owing to the partial consolidation of
the lower layers of sand by pressure.
hut they still have the characteristic
wave features.
In the Winnipeg prairies of Canada
freshly fallen snow Is drifted by wind
In a procession of regular waves pro
gressing with a visible and ghostlike
motion. They are similar to desert
sand waves but less than half as
steep the wave length belns fifty
times as great as the height. Tin
flatness of the wind formed snow
waves affords a valuable Indication of
the great distance to which hills shel
tor from the wind. Chicago Tribune.
TOO GOOD TO BE WELL
A London Hospital Doctor's Hurry
Patient From the Outside.
The accident bell at the door of th.
hospital clangs and the next moment
an agitated parent Is seen runnln-
down the pas-sage with a child tucked
under the arm Its bare legs streaming
behind it In the wind of Its mother's
rapidity.
"What's the matter missis? Has she
swallowed some poison?"
"No sir; It ain't that." she pantd.
"but I'm that scared I don't know
'ardly which way to turn."
"Well but what's happened? Ha."

"o. '!. 'ml er father Vs that up

"Come now missis just tell nu

parent. There seens to be little the

"It's vry well yer a-slttlu' there

the mother. "If yer 'ad children of
yer own yer wouldn't like ter see "em
die afore yer eyes. Oh dear; oh dear
and there ain't only two more and tlu

The doctor in despair examines the
little girl but falls to discover any-
thing wrong. "Now. look here" says
ho firmly. "I can't find anything the
lnatter with ycur child .so you'll have
to go away unless y.ou tell me why you
brought her up to the hopPaI."

DINNER FOR DAIS

NEIGHBORHOOD H0USEWTYES EN
JOY A RARE TREAT.
SIX AMATEUR BOY COOKS
Cecil Ncwhy and Visiting Friends
Spring n Surprise. Prove to
be Good' Cooks.
Cecil Newhy who is this week en-
tertaining a number of his boy friends
In a house party sprung a surprise on
five of the good dames in his neigh-
borhood by inviting them to a swell
dinner yesterday at 12:00 m. The
guests were met at the door by the
monarch of the mansion and conduct-
ed to the parlor where they waited un-
til the cooks "(six in number) had pre-
pared tile repast. Now the six cooks
were the hoys comprising the house
party and knowing this the ladies
naturally expected that the dinner
would he not a feast but a mess. But
they were woefully' disappointed' for
it was (as they all said) the "best
ever." One lady declared that she
could not beat It herself.
During the progress of the meal the
writer had time to momentarily de-
tract his (her) attention from the
chicken wing before him (her) and
notice the artistic arrangement of
things. One dish especially attracted
our attention. In the bottom of it was
some salad. On top of this were three
deviled eggs aiid a tomato. Stuck in
tiie crevices were some pickles and
the whole conglomeration was lined
with olives!
The meal consisting of three
courses was topped ott with peacues
and cream and was certainly good
enough to make a dyspeptic happy.
In departing the guests again con
gratulated the six amateur cooks on
their brilliant culinary success and
the bright promise it gave of their
future. The host assured them that
their mothers and later their wives
would never know of this clandestine
occasion. He also took time to say
that they (the guests) needn't be sur-
prised if the whole house party drop-
ped in on each and every one at any
time for dinner. .
It Is rumored that the hoys want
every girl in town to know that they
are expert cooks waiting for n job and
respectfully refer all applicants to the
following reliable parties who were
present on the delightful occasion:
Mesdames Callison Gordon Holmes
Kilke and Whltehurst.
Men Fast Fifty In Danger.
Men past middle life have found
comfort and relief in Foley's Kidney
