From infancy many of the little ones gre given food beyond the capacity of their digestive organs. AS soon as several teeth have appeared, meats are frequently a part of the bill af fare. These, aa well as the other ar- ticles of food, are necessarily swal: lowed without proper mastication.

When a maiden is betrothed in Ger Many she is called “bride” by her sweetheart, who addresses her thus until it becomes time to call her “wife.” Immediately upon betrotha! the lovers exchange rings, which, if the course of true love runs smooth, are to be worn ever afterward untit death parts them. The woman wears her betrothal ring on the third inser of her Jeft hand until she is married, and then it ts transferred to the third finger of her right hand. The hus- band continues to wear the ring just as the wife wore hers when she was a “bride,” so that one can easily tell at @ glance if a man be or be not mort- gaged as to his affections. Memorials to Americans. Many American boys and girls visit Europe nowadays, but perhaps few even of these fortunate young folk are aware that the greatest of Eng: lish cities coutains memorials to five distinguished Americans—a President, a patriot, a poet, a preacher, and a philanthropist. These five great men are Abraham Lincoln, James Russel! Powell, Henry Wadsworth Longfel- low, Matthew Simpson and George Peabody—five names written high in the Hall of Fame, names immortal in life and letters, names forever illus- trious in ¢haracter and achievement. St. Nicholas. Bird Sentry on Guard. T was interested on Sunday in watch- {ng the movements of birds. Crumb- ling a biscuit, | threw it out, sat down on the piazza and awaited results. It was not long after the birds came and helped themselves before a cat appeared. Then a warning note was sounded by a bird, eyidently on guard on the top of the piazza, where. he could survey the whole scene, At his warning every bird disappeared and remained in hiding until a reassuring mote was heard from the little sentry posted on the piazza roof.—Bostop s make some of our patrons rich men and women. “ TWO CREAT CONTESTS ill be on the July 4th attendance a at the St. Lowis Wi t to be cast Nov. &, 1904. to make it still more a Grand First Prize of $8, ne0.9 g Coffee Packages and a amp cntitle you (in addition to the reg- ular fr¢e premiums) Distributed io the Pubile—ag, ~gregating $4 fo Grocers’ Gierks (seo particulars in Lies ‘SOFrE EE GOMPLETE BETAILED PARTICULARS EEN SESE EN ESS SNES BN LET Sasa) OE Eg EEE OS GS SR ee See ee $20,000.00 will be DetbededAion x RIZES, RIZE Simple Calisthenic Exercise That Will yBo Much.

Word Said to Have No Real 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 adjective definirg what kind of a day is meant. There ‘is a civil day, the ronomical day, the apparent solar y, the mean solar day, and the: sid- ereal day. The civil day begins at tix dnight preceeding mean noon, and consists of twenty-four hours counted | after t eive o’clock; the astronor day begins twelve hours after the day, or at the mean roan of the cor- respotding civil day. These hours are reckoned from 0 to 24. It will be yeen, therefore, that while 10p~. 12min., January ist astronomical time, is also 10hr. 12min. January 1st civil time, yet 22hr. 12min., January 1st as- tronomical time, is also 10hr. 12min. a. m., Jenuary 2nd civil time. There are many anomalies growing out of this use of the civil day, and there are snany arguments in favor of using the astronomical day. It is one of the reforms which undoubdtediy will come some time. cal The Old-Time “Nanna.” A writer ina recent number of the Queen expresses the opinion (which is shared ty many other people) that children are not one whit bettey brought up by the smart, white frocked, certificated nurses- so mush sought after nowadays than they were 3y tke comfortable “Nanna” of the days gone by.
