TIE NAMING OF ADAM.-The Tai
mud gives the reason why the first
man was called Adam. In English,
the word Adam is spelt with four let
ters, but in Hebrew it is spelt in three
letters, Adm. It says: God did or,
dain that the world should last as long
as He sees good. The FIRST man that
was created was called Adam; the
second man. who was q man after
Gods own heart, was called David;
and the last man that ever will be born
will be the Messiah. The first indi-
vidual stands pA., for Adam; the se.
cold, D., for David, and NJ, for Mes
siah, which they say is the foundation
or reason why the first man was called
Adam.

One cannot easily get away from the
effeot of advertising. If man "a
vertises that his stock is fresh and
fashionable. it is difficult to believe
that he has not really finer stock
than those who do not SO advertise.
This influence Of advertising affects
the natural qualities Of human
being, and may be safely appealed to.

A nAturalistic physician in France
thinks 1t worth while to protest against
the mistaken effort OF self-control by
which people repress groans, cries and
tears under pain. Telling of o man
who, while suffering under trying
operation, reduced his pulse from 126
TO 60 in two hours by crying heartily.
he maintains that tears are bene6cent
relief, provided by nature for an.
guished adults as we'll as children, for
men as we'll as women. and that to
check them is to concentrate upon the
whole nervous and muscular system q
restraint that may sometimes be fatal.

FLOWER MlssIoNs.-Oneo OF the most
beautiful! OF all the beautiful charities
in the world, is what is termed the
Flower Mission" which had its origin
come five or six summers since, in the
kind heart OF q young Boston girl, who,
when her plan was fret made public,
little thought to what an extent 1t
would grow, in her own and other Cit
lee. She has, however, had the sstis-
faction OF seeing her experiment be-
coming a national success. aud that is
a pleasure rarely accorded to the phi
lanthropic. 1t is terrible poverty that
allows nothing bright in ones life, that
renders it necessary TO crush every
longing for the beautiful, aud make be-
lieve content with only the hardest and
most commonplace necessities OF life
1t cannot be killed, this
love aud longing, although it may
be repreesed and the sight OF a tiny
blossom or bit OF green will bring
light to dim eyes aud smile to SAD
lips long unused to .mi!ing. In al
cities-our own included-there is 9
broad field for the accomplishment oil
much good, through the instrumental
ity OF this agency, which, il not exactly
reformatory, is at least comforting, and
that is enough for one mission" te
achieve. At the hospital, in the jail!
in the sick rooms, and in workshops
the members OF such a society would
be as welcome as the first hints OF sum
mer in country lanes and woods; be-
sides which, ladies of refinement
brought face to face with their humble
sisters, Can offer to them much woman
y encouragement and sympathy. 1t i;
a beautiful conception, and might Prac
tical!y he made one OF the most bene-
ficieDi, humsnizing agencies ever es'
tablished. 81
