Walking Erecuy.

WALKING erectly not only adds to man.
illness of appearance, but develops the
chest and promotes the general health in
high degree, because the lungs, being
relieved of the pressure made by having
the head downward and bending the chest
in, admit the air freely and fully down to
their very bottom.
If an effort of the mind is made to throw
the shoulders back, feeling of tiredness
and awkwardness is soon experienced, or
is forgotten. The use of braces to hold
up the body is necessarily pernicious, for
there can be no brace which does not
press upon some part of the person more
than is natural, hence cannot fail to i'm
pede Iniuriously the circulation of that
part. But were there none Of these OBJ
jections, the brace would adapt itself to
the bodily position, like hat or a shoe,
or new garment, and would cease to be a
brace.
To seek to maintain an erect position
or to recover it when lost, in a manner
which is at once natural, easy and efficient,
it is only necessary to walk habitually
with the eyes fixed on an object ahead,
little higher than your own, the cave of
house, the top of mans hat, or simply
keep your chin little above horizontal
line, or, it will answer to walk with your
hands behind you; if either of these
things is done, the necessary, easy and
legitimate effect is to relieve the chest from
pressure, the air gets in more easily, de-
velops it more fully, causing a more per-
feet publication OF the blood, imparting
higher health, more color to the cheek,
and compelling throwing out of the toes.
To derive the highest benefit from walk
ing, hold up the head, keep the mouth
closed, and move briskly.-,'ournG Of
Commerce.
The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1869-11-18
A Rash Promise.

THE Portland Argus tells the following
story of young lady who is pupil at
one of the schools in that city, and who
has already, it seems, beaten her father at
mathematics:
She modestly proposed that if her father
would give her only one cent on one day,
and double the amount on each successive
day for just one month, she would pledge
herself never to ask of him another cent
of money as long as she lived. Pater
familias, not stopping to run over the fig
ures in his head, and not supposing it
would amount to large sum, was glad to
accept the offer at once, thinking it
also a favorable opportunity to include
possible marriage dowry in the future.
At the twenty fifth day he became greatly
alarmed, lest if he complied with his own
acceptance he might be obliged to be
"declared bankrupt on his own petit
ton"
But at the thirtieth day the young girl
demanded only the pretty sum of $685.
709.12! The astonished merchant was
only too happy TO cancel the claim by ad
vancing a handsome cash payment for his
folly in allowing himself to give bond
or his word he considered as good as
thC CohoioOideiou
therein expressed, and by promising to
return to the old custom of advancing
smaller sums daily until otherwise or
dered.
Our arithmetic reporter has been "fg-
uring on to it," and says that if the old
gentleman had fulfilled his promise, his
gushing daughter would have had, upon
the receipt of the thirtieth payment, the
mug little sum of $10,737 ,41S.23.

Feeding Children.

CHILDREN, who, !while growing, must
form more tissue than they waste, con-
sumo more food in proportion to their
weight, and possess more active digestions
than adults. They should have their
meals with shorter intervals, and care
should be taken to avoid the influences
that may disturb digestion. Prominent
among these is deficiency of clothing.
The human body, like any other thing of
greater warmth than the surrounding air,
has constant tendency to part with its
excess of heat by radiation, and to check
this cooling process we envelop ourselves
in non conducting fabrics. 1t stands to
reason that the greater the surface exposed
the more rapidly will radiation occur and
yet we frequently see children with chest,
arms and legs barred by fashion in tic
coldest weather, without regard to the
general depression of temperature, which
must also involve that of the digestive
organs. aFE ae
The diet of children should he regulated
w a consideration Of their functional ca
pacities. In infancy, nature furnishes in
the mothers milk all requisite elements in
condition requiring no mechanical treat
ment, but merely simple chemical action.
The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1869-11-18

again reflected to the clouds, and so back
and forth, until it comes within our range
of vision. The glancing and flashing of
the columns of light, he holds, are caused
by the motion of the clouds, an exact cor
respondence being traccable, the doctor
contends, between the movements of the
light and those of the clouds. In con-
firmation of his theory the speaker cited
the cases of similar displays of auroral
light in the east just before sunrise, and
in the west just after sunset, when there
are banks of clouds visible, from which the
suns rays are evidently reflected. The
arches or bows often seen in the north are
also easily explained according to this
hypothesis, while by the electrical theory
they are inexplicable. The detection of
the needle and other magnetic effects,
sometimes observed during an auroral dis
play, are attributed by DR.. Hall to the fact
that the state of the atmosphere most
favorable for these successive reflections of
sunlight from the pole, is also favorable
for the action of the electrical forces which
produces the magnetic disturbances.

ent, bully-coward-knave, take that, and

And the wiry little Anglo-Frank was as
good as his word. In less time than it
takes to write it the great braggart was
rendered unpresentable for many a long
day. That number one caused him to see
fifty suns beaming in the armament with
his right eye; that number two produced a
similar phenomenon with his left that
number three obliged him to swallow a
front tooth, and to observe the ceiling
more attentively than he had hitherto
done. And when one or two other that's
had completely cowed him, and he threw
open the window and called for help, the
strawberry. eater took him by the neck
and breeches and flung him out of it on to
the tlOwer-bed below.
The strawberry eater remaineda month
at Bordeaux to fulfill his promise of giving
the Count his revenge. But then, again,
the bully met with more than his match
The strawberry eater had had Angelo for
a master as well as Owen Swift, and after
a few passes the Count, who was too eager
to kill his man, felt an unpleasant sensa-
ton in his right shoulder. The seconds
interposed, and there was an end of the af-
fair. 1t was his last duel. Some one pro-
duced sketch of him as he appeared be-
ing thrown out of the hotel window, and
ridicule-so awful to a Frenchman-rid
the country of him. The strawberry
eater was alive when the Battle of the
Alma was fought, and is the only man to
whom the above facts are known who
never talks about them-7emple Bar
The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1869-11-18

A little later, as the first teeth begin TO
make their appearance, food easily separa-
BILE may be allowed, and as the masticating
apparatus advances towards perfection,
articles requiring more tearing and grind
ing may be gradually added to the cata-
lOgue. The activity of the digestion
secretions increases in proportion to dental
development, so that many substances
(such as potatoes) which are easy to masti-
cate are not digestible in early childhood.
The milks of different animals vary in
constitution as regards the proportion of
their constituents, human milk containing
more water and sugar than that of the
cow For this reason, when an infant is
brought up by hand" or in the process
Of weaving, it is usual to dilute and sweet
en- cows milk in order to bring it nearer
the human standard. Goats milk for the
same purpose would require more dilu-
ton, but no sweetening-its percentage of
sugar exceeding even that Of the COW. 1t
is extremely doubtful, however, whether
the addition of water to cows milk serves
any good purpose; and it is certain that
far too much is usually added. Human milk
contains about 50 parts of water in 100 !;
cows milk about S6-or three parts less in
100; yet to compensate for this slight diff
ference, the latter is commonly diluted
with double its bulk of water before Civ
ing it to hungry baby. Be it always re-
membered that an infants properest food
