CH TAYLOR | cistinetion between Suvpyside, Queen Syuare. PERSIANS ‘LOVE MIRRORS Persia is the ideal piace foi a looking glass peddler to live and move and have his trade, for the Persians are as fond of the shiny reflectors as are sav- ages of beads. Every year immense numbers of mirrors of all sorts and kinds are shipped into the country of the shah. Germany, France and Bel- gium furnish most of the supply. In addition to having a fondness for see- ing themselves as looking glasses show them the Persians know no more pleas- ing parlor decorations than brilliant mirrors In gilt frames. Some of the Persian drawing rooms are so com- pletely bemmed in by great pier glass- es that visitors often become bewil- dered and try to walk through the glasses down the long aisle that seems to stretch ip front. So bumped noses, knees and toes are not uncommon in that land of. oriental splendor and thystery. Settlea It. He (a suitor)— Grammarians have never been quite sure of the proper “I shall” and “I but to my mind there is no diffi- will,” culty. She—I don't quite know the distince- tion myself. He (thinking he sees his opportuni- ty)—Well, take the question, “Will you marry me?” Supposing I ask you, your reply would be not “I will.” but— She (emphatically)—I won’t!—Judy. Te Make the Eyes Bright. The simple plan of bathing the eyeg | | with cold water every night at bed- | time and the first thing on getting up im the morning will make the eyes both clear and bright. The applica- tion of cold water causes the blood in VERSE. The joyful break of lingering dawn, The weary shepherds wait ; But all was dark that wintery morn As holy words relate. But ah ! what means that sudden light, For which which the wa chers : They view with wonder and aftright An angel form descend, His glory filled the darkened pla‘n With radiance from on high ; And, ttruck with awe, that humble train Io vaio essayed to fly, Their wandering senees he recalls And bids them not to fear ; Whilst bis annunciation falle Like music on their ear. Fear not ye men of Jowly birth ! Let praise your tougues employ, For lo! I brivg to all the earth A message fraught with j y. For uoto you this very morn Jo David’s city fair; The Lord and Saviour, Christ, is born, Creation’s God and heir. And thie the sign—the Babe you’) find By love maternal lad Within a manger rude reclined In swadd)ing clothes arrayed. | Then, euddenly, a hymn of praise Buret on the listening ear ; And countless hosts their voices raise In numbers sweet and clear. the numerous little blood vessels which | surround the eyes to circulate freely, and in consequence the eyes will be- come stronger and brighter. Tea Drinking. Tea drinking was regarded as one of the feminine vices of a hundred years ago. The Female Spectator of that pe- riod observes: “The tea table costs more to support than would maintain two children at nurse. It is the utter destruction of all economy, the bane of good housewif'ry and the source of idieness.” Rather be sweet in spirit than strong im muscle. —T ——s = r — The (~HARM OF 4 C BEAUTY Not in the Features so much as in the Grace and Vitality of a Healthy SS Bods A.
