It is the easiest matter in the
world to spoil a wife. Years ago,
when Cousin Annie had to earn
a living for her husband she
seemed perfectly satisfied with
her lot, but as soon as he went to
work she became so unreasonable
that she wanted him to help with
the children.

ish and restless in his

Airships Flying Across the Andes Nat-
urally Resented by the Condors
as an Intrusion.
The Ancles are becoming quite
blase to crossings and the condors
are understood to be highly annoyed
at the constant invasion of their pri-
vate residences at 15,000 feet or so
of altitude. Since Jorge Newbery
met the fate of the courageous pio-
neer there have been several success-
ful crossings. The name of the for-
mer will always be connected with
the Cordillera with the same melan-
choly celebrity that attaches to the
death of Lord Francis Douglas and
Mr. Hadow on the Matterhorn.
The most recent disturber of the
wild mountain solitudes is a Chilean
military aviator, Lieut. Armando
Cortinez, who descended at Mendoza
after leaving the military school
ground of Lo Espejo, near Santiago
de Chile. He broke his propeller in
landing and was obliged to wait for
spare parts and a mechanic.
As he went up merely to attempt
an altitude flight and had no leave
to cross the frontier chain, the lieu-
tenant will be put under arrest on
his return, While being given all
credit for his plucky achievement.

It is bad enough to miss a lot
of old faces when you go hack to
the town where you were raised,
but it is worse to see a lot of new
faces... When you go into the
drug store you see a handsome
young fellow who lived in the
town only five or six years and
he is joking a pretty girl or buy-
ing ice cream for her. You learn;
that the girl is a sister or per-;
haps a daughter of a woman you
once courted, and you feel like
telling the young man that he
had best go back where he come
from to do his sparking.

the Young Britishers of
Both Sexes.
French Christian names for Brit-
ish children have become much more
common in the last year. This, of
course, is because of the fancy our
Tommies in France have taken to
some of the prettier French names.
Pierre and Jules are by far the
most common names in France for
boys, and after them Louis, Marcel,
Roaul, Lucien, Etienne and Ger-
vaise, any one of which given to the
newly arrived son and heir of a Brit-
ish Tommy always serves to remind
him of the part played in the great-
est war in history.
It is a curious fact, however, that
our Tommies are much more in-
clined to call their girl babies by
French names than they are their
sons. Madeleine, Marie and Yvon-
ne are becoming quite common.
Among other pretty French names
for girls are Colinette, Hortense,
Ninon, Julienne and Celine.
This war, by the way, has one pe-
culiarity over others, and that is that
the number of babies burdened with
real war names, as in the Boer war,
are remarkably few. In the Boer
war “Bullers” and “Kitcheners”
were very common.—Pearson’s

She prepared sup-
per at the usual hour, and dur-
ing the meal we continued saying
very little. After supper we
picked up the paper, looked over
it a few minutes and then said:
“See where Arthur Charming is
going to be at the Tiptop to-
night in The Mystery ofMyster-
ies.’ ” Why did we say that?
We don’t read out something of
the kind every evening. Why
call themselves citizens. It would
not be so bad for outsiders to
move to the old home town if
they would be modest and not
act as if they had the same
right as those who remember the
open well that worried mothers
twenty years before the court-
house was built on the ground.
It is impossible to feel entirely
welcome after you rock on the
family dog . Of course the
people say the dog had no busi-
ness under the chair, but you feel
they are thinking the accident
wouldn’t have happened if you
had stayed home.
Years ago when Nathaniel
was a young man of thirteen he
gave one of his photographs to
Aunt Mary, who was very glad
did we announce that Arthur
Charming, her favorite actor,
would be at the Tiptop this par-
ticular night? She knew why
and yet she remained silent. Of
course she would agree to go if
we would say to her: “Let’s go to
a picture show.” Of course she
would. But we wanted a little
more than that. We wanted her
to do her part toward patching
up the misunderstanding. She
should have asid: “Oh, I wish
you would take us.’ If she had
said that we could have acted the
part of good husband and father
who is always willing to make
sacrifices for his wife and child-
ren. We could have said: “Can
hardly afford; got a little work
much easier to keep from seeing
the one who has said things
about you that were not true.
Several years ago when Cousin
Tiny and Cousin Lottie were not
speaking, their bonnets were a
great help to them. They could
shop at the same counter without
seeing each other. One day when
Cousin Lottie was on her way
home she met Cousin Tiny going
to town. Each one was rolling a
large baby buggy, and as they
were afraid they couldn't pass
in the smooth road, each'turned
off in the rough ground. Cousin
Lottie walked faster than usual
and Cousin Tiny walked faster
than usual. The baby buggies
pitched over the clods until it
looked as if both babieswould be
thrown out, but they went on
through without receiving any-
thing worse than a few hard
bumps. When Tiny and Lottie
were a safe distance from each,
other they slowed down and turn-
ed back into the road. Cousin
Tiny didn't see Cousin Lottie,
and Cousin Lottie couldn't have
told you who the other woman
was. A few days later Cousin

An amusing incident occurred
during the plenary session of the
peace conference. The general sec-
retary of the conference had decided,
wisely no doubt, not to open the
buffet to the plenipotentiaries until
the end of the sitting. All was go-
ing well and the order was being rig-
orously carried out, when who should
come in for a cup of tea but Mr.
Lloyd George!
In the presence of so important a
personage the barman grew weak-
kneed and served the cup that cheers.
Thereupon in flocked the members
of the conference, highly indignant
at having been refused a privilege so
arbitrarily accorded to the British
premier. Among the malcontents,
M. Politis, the Greek foreign minis-
ter, could be heard vindicating the
claims of small nations in language
not purely Hellenic.

“Yes,” answered Uncle Bill Bot-

less with alcohol now is liable to
need a lawyer worse than he does a

They Win You On Quality!
Your enjoyment of Camels will be very great
because their refreshing flavor and fragrance
and mellowness is so enticingly different. You
never tasted such a cigarette! Bite is elimi-
nated and there is a cheerful absence of any
unpleasant cigaretty after-taste or any un-
pleasant cigaretty odor!
Camels are made of an expert blend of choice
Turkish and choice Domestic tobaccos and are
smooth and mild, but have that desirable full-
body and certainly hand out satisfaction in
generous measure. You will prefer this Camel
blend to either kind of tobacco smoked straight!
Give Camels the stiffest tryout, then
compare them with any cigarette in
the world at any price for quality,
flavor, satisfaction. No matter
how liberally you smoke
Camels they will not tire
your
taste !
