Phae- ton did not seem to realize that life was full of peril for him, as was shown by the gleefully careless way he { sported about. Some people think the days of mir- acles are past; but they are not, for a miracle, and everything it is a miracle. The h mind is performing miraculous ats all of the time. There is no in- | dividual so nificant that he isn't a miracle. His heart is a life-pump | that pumps 70 gallons of his life-fluid every hour. The blood in his system circulates 35 times an hour and it moves at the rate of 620 feet a minute, or seven miles an hour; and he doesn’t feel it any more than he does the 115 ounds of atmospheric pressure to the square inch which holds him on the earth. A man's blood in efrenlation travels about 61,000 miles a vear; and it is omly 24,000 miles around the earth. Most men eat their own weight every month; and it is possible to gain in flesh twice the weight of the food eaten; and man doesn't know he is a miracle. He ought to. This is the season when all who choose may meet the American pub- lic on the level and study it at leisure.
