Nature’s Perfect Arrangement for Preservation of Fish Life. “Naturally the fish of the deep por- being found below 200 fathoms,” writes W. S. Harwood in Harper's Magazine. “In the Atlantic ocean the vast Saragasso sea, containing three millions of square miles of surface—a great nratiné prairie as large as the whole of the United States exclusive of Alaska and ‘dependent islands—af- fords vegetable food for uncountable animals, which, in theif due time, die and are precipitated to the depths, their bodies in turn.to be eaten by the animals which live far below all veg- etation, So it is throughout the whole ocean; animal life is constantly falling from the surface waters for the sup port of the animal life of the abyss. A very. large number of the deep sea animals are exceedingly tenuous or translucent in form—so to put it—hav- ing no special organs of nutrition, but taking in their nourishment through the ‘walls of their bodies, appropriat- ing from the water the food.which suits them. Some of. them have a bony structure, a skeleton, which they form also from the water, silica and carbonate of lime being the chief skeleton-forming matevials.” Worry Too Much Abcut Health. Most sincerely to be pitied. is the} man who looks at his tongue every morning and keeps a clinical ther- mometer. But it is quite certain that the number of such, folk is increas- ing. The most to be commiserated weigh their food, observe their ton- gues in the glass every morning, and carry pepsin powders. They ayow that this and the other article of diet al- ways upsets ihem, as it certainly will if they expect it to.do so. Nine out of ten of these good folk | have just as good digestion as anyotie can ask for—A Physician in the Pall Mal! Gazette. -Helping Others. To help those less fortunate than themselves should. -:be. the coveted pleasure of. those favored of. fortune. There is. no happiness equal to that enjoyed through making others happy .The sunlight we cast into other lives concentrates its rays, reflecting back “in. brighter, purer force. We cannot “sift 0 out or investigate every case of need. but we can take it for granted that truth has been told us and extend a P helping hand for humanity’s sake — Exchange... ; The “Alms. Cow.” “A curious custom still holds good #m,the village of. Waddesdon, in Buck- inghamshire, England, where, on any morning .or evening “of the year, you ean claim a free drink of new milk | ‘from a cow specially kept forthe benefit of thirsty wayfarers. This ani- mal is known locally as the “alms cow,” and when she dies another has to be stihae by the varish. pasa i ties, 4 < round table. Wrecked Sailor. Records of thé ancient city Sie ana, founded in 1640, better known at the present time as York Harbor, Me., contain many quaint and unusual sto ries of the early life of the town. At the entrance to York Harbor a bold promontory known as Stage Neck extends some distance into the sea, from which formerly in stormy weath- er a temporary light in the form of a lantern hoisted upon an upright pole was displayed as a warning to mari. ners. One dark winter night a sloop was wrecked on these rocks. A survivor, on being questioned about the catas- trophe, said: % “The vessel struck, turned over on her side, and the skipper and another barrel of whiskey rolled overboard.” The local coroner was summoned, and this somewhat startling verdict was returned: “We find that the deceased fell from | the masthead and was killed; he roll- ed overboard amd was drowned; he floated ashore and froze to death and the rats eat him up Blive!”—Harper's Weekly. GOOD ADVICE FOR ALL. Cultivate Calmness if You Wish Health and Happiness. A beautiful woman gave the follow- ing advice to a girl admirer: your nerves and don’t let thera become too sensitive. Make yourself take life calmly. If you lose a-train don’t pace the platform wildly, but inquire when the next comes in, and sit down calm- ly to wait for it. That’s just what most women don’t do; they sit down, perhaps, but they tap the floor with their feet, clinch and unclinch their hands, and are apparently in a fever heat of excitement over the arrival of every train that comes in, even though they have been assured that theirs is not due for another half hour. That half hour of waiting means to them a frightful wear and tear of nerves and they are practically weeks older for it. Try to cultivate calmness, bu:, if you cannot do that all at once, you can keep your face still.” “Dog Tret” a Misnomer. “Dogs have a variety of gaits,” said the ‘boss of the kennels, “therefore | .can’t understand why it is that peo- ple who describe a certain style of Iccomotion always call it a dog trot. Judging by the universality of that expression, a body would think that a dog never moves any other way than on a trot.. But he does. All the ~ gaits belonging to other four-footed animals are also his. He runs, he lopes, he even racks and paces, so when a person in a hurry falls into a peculiar kind of canter, there would be just. as much sense in. speaking of his gait as a dog run or a dog gal- lop, once in a while, as always to call it a dog trot.” Forest cf Dwarf Trees, The most extraordinary forest/in‘ the world is one discovered by Dr. Welwitsch, which occupies a table- land some six miles broad, at a height of 300 feet or 400 feet above the sea, near the West Coast of Africa. The trunks of the trees of this peculiar forest are 4 feet in diameter, and yet they only attain a height of 1 foot, giving the tree the appearance of a There are never more than two leaves, which attain a length of 6 feet and a breadth of 2 feet, che flowers forming crimson clusters. : Stay, Stay at Home.

Rest for the Bedridden. _ In cases where absolute rest of the body is necessary, and the patient gets very weary cf lying still, a most welcome rest and change to the limbs can be managed by the nurse raising the knees of the patient well up in bed, and then putting a good, substan- tial pillow or bolster well packed un- derneath them. In time, of course, the patient wearies of this position, then the support. should be with- drawn, and fresh relief is afforded. This would also give great comfort to people partly paralyzed. Happiness a Great Force. A happy man or woman is a better thing to find than a £5 note, writes Stevenson. He or she is a radiating force of good will, and their éntrance into a room as though another candle had been lighted. We need. not care whether they could prove the forty- seventh proposition. They do a bet- ter thing than that. They practically demonstrate the great ‘theorism of ‘the liveableness of. life. A French Custom. : In France a newly married couple do not have the ordinary bridal calls made upon them. Instead, garbed in their best, the bride and groom pay isits to all their married friends. Imagine a shy woman’s embarrass- ment when she must call upon total strangers—especially if she marries away from her own neighborhood, or | her husband has a country house in a ke different quarter. “Shield | Verdict of Coroner's Jury en Body of 1 STEIN-BLOCH MART CLOTHES 4 A best ever is always the grand marshal of a parade of ‘Just as goods.” ‘That's been our experience with Stein-Bloach Smart Clothes.
