KILEY. {WO DOLLARS A YEAR IN ADVANCE Satered in the Postofiice at Grand Rapid Minnesota, as Second-Class Matter, How Brown Bears Catch Salmon, Alaska’s brown bears near the Ber- ing sea live largely on salmon and are extraordinary fishers. Before be-/ ginning to fish they .always place themselves on the downward side of the river. “They seem to smell the almon by some extraordinary means,” says a hunter, “and then be- gin dashing in and out of the river. at some shallow place, rarely failing to catch a fish. They bring it out on the bank and devour it, if possible selecting some thick patches of bushes and grass in which to make their meal, which does not take them long.” British Warship Joke.

Morgan Sill in the Outlook. But So da ar —Louise Humor of Clerical Life. To those avout to seek admission into holy orders, an interview with the ordinary is a time of much anxt ety, sometimes of mental confusion. This, perhaps, accounts for the un- usual behavior of a young candidate who, dismissed on the Episcopal door- step with a solemn “God bless you,” jhastily answered, “Don’t mention it, my lord. "—Strand Magazine. Benefit of Collegiate Course. President Woodrow Wilson of Princeton: “You don’t need to send a boy to college to find an education, it’s to find himself, to find his relation to the life that is around, and to become to the nation. ‘the class 1 is not vital, because one man es, one mind is master. I be- that the only way to learn is by - your mind aldngside of some t mind and drawing conclusiors. Nothing gives a youngster cathol:city of view like rubbing against the men of various parts of the country.” ee To Remove Printer’s Ink from Paper. To remove printer’s ink from paper place a thick pad of blotting paper be- neath the sheet of paper which is soil- ed. Then apply sulphuric ether with cotton wool, gently. rubbing. Finally apply white blotting paper to absorb the color. Continue the application of fresh ether and repeat until all stains disappear. Do this away from a light. Printer’: ink is soluble in ether, oil or turpentine, and benzine. ue Alcohol in Ancient Times. Cons) idering the possible influence hol upon human evolution, Dr. Campbell assumes that such civilizations as those of Babylon and Egypt may date back 30,000 years and that agriculture by migratory tribes may extend back 30,000 years more, but concludes that the use of alcohol as a beverage has not been known more than 10,0C0 years. He finds no re; son to believe that, as was sug- sted some years ago, the discovery fermented liquor gave the first civ- quickening to the brain of the e-man. ONE CAUSE FOR DRINK HABIT. Sxpert Traces Intemperance to Im- proper Feeding. “There is a cause for the érink hab- }{t which even good Christian parents ‘Our lesson this morn- . do not understand,” says a writer in What to-Eat. “They cannot realize why their children, with beautiful sur- roundings and daily Christian influ- ences, sometimes go far astray, be- coming sadly immoral, and in many instances drunkards. When they, as well as many of the physicians, shall haxe exhausted all other efforts to lo- eate the cause of the trouble, let them look to the stomach—the poor, abused stomach—and they will, in all proba- bility, find the source of the evil. From infancy many of the little ones are given food beyond the capacity of their digestive organs. As soon as several teeth have appeared, meats are frequently a part of the bilt of fare. These, as well as the other ar- ticles of food, are necessarily swal- lowed without proper mastication. Pepper, mustard, Worcestershiro sauce, vinegar and highly seasoned salads also find their way into these young and tender stomachs until, as the result of such a diet, fermentation sets in and a little distillery is created in these youthful temples. Under such conditions a child becomes irri- table, quick tempered, untruthful, and {t would be surprising if it grew up to noble manhood.” PREPARE FOR LONG FASTS. Nature Takes Good Care of Animals That Hibernate. A large number of species of ani- mals undergo more or less prolonged and continuous fasts during the pe- riod of their winter or summer sleep. During such slumbers the more active functions cof the body are to a great extent suspended, while those that are varried on act slowly and entail com- paratively little waste of tissue and energy. Moreover, before the period ot the winter torpor or hibernation takes place, many animals, such as bears, accumulate large stores of fat on various parts of the body, whick suffice to supply all the waste entailed by the respiratory function during the period in question. Fat is also ac- cumulated by the mouselemurs of Madagascar previous to the summer sleep, or aestivation, and is used up in a similar manner, their summer sleéps being undertaken for the pur- pose of avoiding the season of great heat and drought, when food is dif- ficult or impcssible to procure. “An Sin, Esquire.” By way of corroborating my view that the title “Esquire” is utterly de- void cf meaning, one of my readers mentions that in_ Singapore, where he has resided for eleven years, it is not only universally bestowed on very white man, but-also upon the wealthier Chinese and Asiatics. “Ah Sin, Esq.,” looks and sounds well. It will surely lend an additional attrae- tion to life in a Rand mine or com- pound when the Celestial knows that the wealth he amasses out of his “av- erage minimum” wage will entitle hisa to such a designation. He could » get a peacock’s feather or a yellow jacket at home for anything like the price.—London Truth. Grouse Has Many Defenses. The grouse has a hundred tricks ce: defense. It will lie still until the hunter is within a yard of it, then soar straight upward in his front, towering like a woodcock; again, it will rise forty yards away, and the sound of its wings is his only notice of its pres- ence. It will cower upon a branch under which he passes, and his cap will not be more than a foot below it as he goes, and though it has seen him approaching it will remain quies- cent in fear until his back is turned. It will rush then, and when he has elewed himself hurriedly around he will catch only a glimpse of a brown, broad wing far away. One of Corea’s Superstitions. Near the city of Seoul, the capital of Corea, is a hill called Pouk Hen, which was formerly trees. as a tree remained on the hill so long will Corea maintain its independence, and therefore no one is allowed to ‘cut or touch a tree. But the natural consequence of this want of forestry has been that the trees have gradually died off, until now only one is left. On this one tree it is believed that the fate of the country rests, and when it goes Corea as an independent state will go with it. Furnished rooms with or w'thout board.— Thos. B. Munn.

Decter Considers Important Subject. int the Matter of Dict. A medical practitioner has drawn attention in the London Chronicle to a very important subject in tbe mat: ter of diet. He points out that the stoker grilling in the stokehole of a Red sea liner and the explorer among the ice floes of the frozen North—pro- vided they are healthy. men—have identical temperatures. The automat ic heat-regulating mechanism in the body, no matter what tha thermom. eter may register outside, sees tha the body is kept at a normal tempera: ture of about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit In order to assist this wonderfull proc- ess * extremes of weather, it is necessary to consider the subject of food, and one of the most important items of food in hot weather is water. Water, as the writer points out, is a food, and it should be taken in sum- mer weather as a regular article of diet. The habit of drinking iced wa- ter is discountenanced, and the ice cream is barred as tke most fruitful cause if innumerable dyspepsias. Bet- ter than cold drinks are hot drinks, and tea with a slice of lemon is rec. ommended as the most cooling drink in hot weather, VARIOUS KINDS OF DAYS. Word Said to Have No Peal Meaning Without Defining Adjective. Five kinds of day are recognized, and it has been said that the word “day” has no real meaning without an adjeetive defining what kind of a day is meant. There is a civil day, the wstronomical day, the apparent solar way, the mean solar day, and the sid- ereal day. The civil day begins at the midnight preceding mean noon, and consists of twenty-four hours counted | after twelve o’clock; the astronomical ; day begins twelve hours after the civil day, or at the mean noon of the cor- | day. These hours | respouding civil are reckoned from 0 to 24. It will be | s2en, therefore, that while l0er. 12min., January 1st astronomical time, is also 10hr. 12min. January 1st civil tronomical time, is also 10hr. 12rein. a.m., January 2nd civil time. There are many anomalies growing out of this use of the civil day, and there are many arguments in favor of using the astronomical day. It is one of the reforms which undovbted!y will come some time. The Old-Time “Nanna.” A writer in a recent number of the | Queen expresses the opinion (which is | shared by many other people) that children are not one whit better brought up by the smart, white frocked, certificated nurses so much sought after nowadays than they were 4#¥ the comfortable “Nanna” days gone by. The old nurse. still holds a place in the hearts of the men and women who knew her loving czre when they were children, and tuey will never forget her “treats’ that used to delight their hearts. all,’.says a woman, “was lantern tea, when all the lights were put out, and the rursery was illuminated by penny tin lanterns, containing colored can- dies, which cast weird shadows on tho | solemn faces round the festive board.” During the Day and Night. It has been seriously asserted by many people that we are naturally lighter after a meal. and they have even gone the length of explaining this by the amount of gas that is developed from the food. Average observations, however, show thet we lose three pounds six ounces between night and morning; that we gain one | pound twelve ounces by breakfast; that we again lose about fourteen ounces before lunch; that lunch puts on an average of abeut one pound; that we again lose during the after- noon an average of ten ounces, but that an ordinary dinner to healthy persons edds two pounds two ounces to their weieht “Best of ; j fluid, which unite an j line, and it is be they re-vain true the highest magnifying power, An nee of + durability of the ; into victory. | cess, he volunteer: time, yet 22hr. 12min., January 1st as- | | | victory is { of the | ; buffet, with the sam- ovar, are situated in the cen of the long car.

The astronomer after the exper. ence of many years has found that he spider furnishes the only thread which can be successfully used in arrying on his work. The spider lines mostly used are rom one-fifth to one-seventh cf a housandth of an inch in diameter, nd, im addition to their streneth and lasticity, they have t peculiar ropetty of withstanding great ‘hanves of temperature, and often wheu measuring the sun spots, though the heat is so inten: crack the lenses of the mi eyepiece, yet the spider lines are not in the least injured. Tne threads of the silkworm, al- though of great value as a commer- cial product, are/so coarse and rough compared with the silk of the spider that they cannct be used in such in- struments, Spider lines, ‘although but a frac: tion of a thousandth of an inch in diameter, are _madé un of thousands cf mic al- spider lines is found at the Alleghany observatory, where the same set of lines in the micromcter of the transit instrument has been muse. since 1859. ‘ KNOW WHEN TO S7TCP, Danger in Allowing Victory to Carry One Too Far. 1 to do something ure on ring the r Watching his chance to do better, op- | portunity came, and he turned failure R messenger of find- a third time, with the re ing himself a greater Ta first.
