THEPowER OF THE HEART.-Let any one,
while sitting down, place the left leg over the
knee of the right one, and permit it to hang
freely, abandoning all muscular control over
it. Speedily it may be observed to sway
forward and backward through a limited
space at regular intervals. Counting the
number Of these motions for any given time
they will be found to agree with the beating
Of the pulse. Every one knows, that at
fires, when the water from the engine is
forced through bent hose, if the bend is a
sharp one, considerable force is necessary to
overcome the tendency. Just 80 it is 10 the
case OF the human body. The arteries are
but system of hose through which the
blood Is forced by the heart. When the leg
Is bent, all the arteries within it are bent,
too, aud every time the heart contracts, the
blood rushing through the arteries tends to
stralghten them; and it is this effort which
produces the motion of the leg alluded to.
Without such peculiar demonstrations, it is
difficult to conceive the power exertsd by
that exquisite mechanism, the normal pulsa.
tions of which are never perceived by him
whose very life they are

BoRRowING.-A man who borrows book
seldom returns it, and in bis career there is
no turning point. The paoer borrower usu.
ally forgets to take it back, and goes back
on the owner who never sees his face again.
Bonnycreddle's advice to a neighbor who
always honored him by borrowing his paper
before be had read it himself, was "Buy it,
my dear sir, buy it." "I have no change
said the borrower. "Subscribe for it." "I
have no time" "Surely if you have nc
change to buy it and no time to subscribe
for it, how is it you waste time in borrowing
it |"
