After this pretty broad hiufc of what was expected, of course I expressed a wish to make tl)e acquaintance of thesse fair members of the family. Her face became sud denly grave, she looked hesitatingly at ler husband, who had remained silent raffing his cigarette during the couver- ation, and he said something which I did not understand, bub which at once dispelled her momentary gravity. The old man got up, went across to a looked door, turned the key, opened it and disappeared into a dark chamber within. Almost immediately he returned, say- ‘‘The girls are not accustomed to seeing strangers, and are afraid.” Meanwhile the senora, who evidently now determined that her daughters should show themselves, had also dis appeared into the secret chamber, from which now proceeded sounds of whis pering and suppressed giggling. Presently the senora* reappeared, lead-, ing a very modest looking damsel of about nineteen years, closely followed by three others, apparently somewhat younger. All were overwhelmed with an intense shyness and an hysterical desire to laugh. After the formal and separate introduction of each—^be it noted that the lady is here introduced to the gentleman—they all scampered hack into the secret chamber and their papa turned the key on them. At this time I was ignorant of the custom which is so general in these out of the way parts of keeping women, or rather the daughters, looked up like wild beasts; consequently I did not hesitate to express my wmnder and to ask why it was done in this case. In answer Senor Andrade said that it was the custom of the country, and he had never thought of bringing up his daughters iu any other way. “Do they ever go out ?” I asked. upon yawning as a natm “No, never,” he replied; /-not now certain organs, he will reach a sati that they are grown.” . _ _ tory explanation of its curative j They had all learnt horseback riding ©rties. when children, but since then they had ii’ a short ti almost entirely closed, the ears somewhat raised, the nostrils di- liated. Inside the mouth, the tongue becomes round and arched, the palate stiffly stretched, and the uluva is raised, almost entirely closing the space between the nose and throat. At the beginning of the inspiration a oracking noise is heard in the ears, a proof that the duct leading to the hearing also succumbs to this stretching. If the yawning has reached the deepest point it will require from one to one and a half seconds for it to be come noticeable to the hearing. In order to observe tbis, let one place him self at a sufficient distance from a clock, so that its ticking will not he easily heard, and yawn deeply. ^ During this deep breathing the sound'' of the clock is not perceptible to the most careful listening. All this simply goes to show that yawning sets a number of muscles to work, and particularly those which are uot directly subject to the vill. Although one yawning does not pre sent a very agreeable appearance, it is eeable to oneself, for the stretch- Empty Cradle Brought a Big Frlce. There was a resting spell with the aUtioneer, and the Free Press reporter standing by his box looked at him. “Gone ?” inquired the reporter, as the auctioneer sat doivn, tired. \Well I ’ve been going all the morn ing, and I ought to be,” responded the auctioneer “You ought to be a funny man, a great American humorist, or something of that sort,” suggested,the reporter. “Josh Billings was onoi and he got his start at the block,” said the auc tioneer, reflhotively, “and some auction eers are given to that sort of thing yet. I was that way myself when I first be gan, hut I had an experience that cured me of the habit before it had fixed it self permanently.” The reporter turned a face full of in terrogation points on the auctioneer, and he kept on ; “I was called on once to sell by auc tion a lot of household furniture, be longing to a man and his wife who had been married four or five years.

Dr. Naegeli, there fore, advises people not to concern themselves with so-called decency, but every morning and evening, and as often as possible, to exercise the lungs and all the muscles of respiration by yawning and stretching, as many chronic lung troubles may thus be pre vented.

There were several young men of my acquaintance in the crowd, and I smiled at them as I turned the cradle ’round and began to rook it, humming a lullaby as I did so. ‘ Empty is the cradle, baby’s gone,’ I said, and was going on to say something else to get a laugh, when I happened to look down into the face of a woman close to the platform I was standing on. She was dressed in faded black, evidently given her by some woman larger than she was, and there was a look in her eyes and a tension of the lines across her forehead and a pitiful weakness about her quivering lips that made me stop. She stood close to the platform, and crowd was all at her back, so they not noticed her. She didn’t speak. SEASONABLE. DOMT Y00 WaUT IN ELEGINT SEAL JACKET OR GOAT.

Young John Jay was a very literal, matter-of-fact fellow who, after he had graduated at the high school and taken a course in shorthand, obtained a sit uation as secretary in a large mercantile establishment. One day his employer, who had a good opinion of John’s literary ability, called him and said; “Jay, I want you to write a circular letter to our customers telling them squarely what we are going to do for them in the matter of that big oonsigu- ment of percales.” John went away to write the letter, but the task troubled him. By-ancl-by he came back and asked: “Didn’t you tell me, sir, to write a good square letter to the customers?” “And didn’t you also tell me that it was to be a circular letter?” “’Why, yes.” “Well, sir, how can it be square and circular at the same time. That isn’t good geometry, is it ?” The merchant looked steadily at John for a moment, then he said; “I forgot the geometry. Perhaps you had better tell them roundly what we are going to do—not squarely!

Xlie Kind of Girl That the Aloderi Uncholor Longis For, \Young men of the day are accused of being an almost non-marrying race,” said Tom. “What do you think about it, Dick ?” “Well, we certainly do not marry so early in life as our fathers did. It costs more to live, and a man hasn’t made enough for two until he has reached thirty-three or four, and the girls have too good a time at home to want to marry until they have had their fling. They are prettier, healthier and ’more becomingly dressed than they ever were, but they are also more mer cenary ; they do not believe in mar riages that ha^e no financial backing; they are used to luxury and demand it as a light.” “But there are plenty of rich men in the market,” said Tom. “To make a personal application of the matter, why don’t yon marry ? You have a pretty decent income—quite enough for two. The waste would never get beyond the threshold, at all events, and you just said, a few minutes ago, that you were sick and tired of knocking about; that you had done it all, and that there was nothing new to do, and that you were tired of clubs, hated restaurants and apartments, and were generally bored to death. Now, why not marry and have a house and home of your own and be a useful mem ber of society ?” “To tell you tho truth,” said the one addressed, “I ’m afraid to. I’m afraid that I shouldn’t like it. That if my wife was very good, and very loving, and of the clinging- vine kind, I should be worried and bored ; and, then, if she was handsome and extravagant, and accustomed to so ciety and admiration, why, she would want to keep it up, and dine out all the time, and go to dances.

Not long ago the patriotic wife of a journalist gleefully informed him that she had secured a ' 'splendid bargain,” She had bought a landsome silk flag, worth perhaps five or six dollars originally, for two dol lars, “There must be something the matter with the flag,” said her husband. “Oh, no,” quickly responded tho wife. ■'I examined it very carefully. It is perfect.” “Did you count the stars?” asked tho husband, “No, I did not,” answered the wife, somewhat dubiously. The stars on the flag were counted, and it was found that they numbered thirty- eight. \If you had bought that flag several years ago for two dollars, Mag gie, you would have received more than your money’s worth,” said the husband, \but now it has not enough stars to make it an American flag,” ^ A Parrot Seldom Porgets.
