The Kangaroo.


Kangaroos is own brothers TO pcssums,
cos the she ones has got watch pockets
on their stummeekses 70 carry their
young ones in, but .possuns can't jump
like ZEN.
Once two men were travelling on
horseback ia Ostralia, wen kangaroo
bust out of the bush and iumpt eileen
over them and was lost to site in the
bush on the other side of the road.
One of the men he puId up as friten as
he cud be, and he said TO the other, did
you cher see such q monsbrous berd in oil
yure life, bless my soul tho3 it was go
ing to carry us up to its ness But the
other teller wioh had been in the country
8 week longer than him trid 70 laughp,
and said bird your gran mother, it WIS
only JUS one OF the pformiDg animules
Wieh has escape from a eercis, you OF 60
see some of our curcusses. Jus then
the kangaroo, wich had come roun to
the rode IN front Of EN-, and was hop
pin abot on its hine legs like a roben.
was see bi the man wich had spok las,
and he locked long vile, and then he
sed wsssunt You saying some thing

The kangaroo jumps because its hine
legs Il so much bigger than is kneeded
for wokken, and Uncle Ned says if it
didden jump it wud be lettin most of
its cappitiIe " idle. It's fore legs IS
sent much use except tn scratch its
nose wen It itches, but its tale is the
ofiiest part of it. It Is made long and
hevy SO that wen the kangaroo jumps
it vii go steddy like a cite, but give me
balloon.
A man had a pet kangaroo, and some
thing was the matter with its. tale, and
friend OF the man said you must cnt

and wen 1t is heeled you mus takc the
patent into the open air and tuch him
up with hot fern to make him take
exercise. The man he done it, but he
tried whipping instead OF the hot fern,
bat the poor kangaroo wich had loss
his tale jos set still and wudden move,
so the man he plide The fern, and the
kangaroo he Civ leep hier than a hous,
but not having any tale to balance il, it
wirled over and over, snd wen it cum

Treating the wrong disease.

Many times women call upon their family
physicians, one with dyspepsia, another with
pslpita.1on, another with trouble OF the
breast, and another with pain here and there,
and in this way they all present alike to them
selves aud their easy-gOing and Indifferent
doctors, separate and distinct diseases, for
which he preecribes his pile and potions a.
sumiDg them to DO such, when, in reality
they are all sym toms cansed by some uteiine
disorder; aud while they are thus only able
perhaps to palliate for time, they are ignor-
ant OF the cause. and encourage their practice
until large bills are made, when the suffering
patients are no better in the end, bat probably
worse FOR the delay, treatment and other com
plications made, and which Iropsr medicine
directed to the cause would have entirely re
moved, thereby instituting health and comfort
instead OF prolonged misery.

Effect OF Exercise.

1t is found by observation that the
effect of training" or the persistent
use o gymnastic exercises, is to enlarge
the hea. and lungs both in size and
capacity. Archibald McCluren, super
intendent of the Oxford gymnasium,
and author of physical Education, /"
says: Gone OF the army officers sent
to me to be instructed in gymnastics
gained five inches in girth around the
chest in less than three months" That
this growth is not explained by the
mere enlargement of the pectoral mus
cles is proved by the increased volume
OF air which the lungs are enabled to
expire, as is demonstrated by the spi-
rometsr, and post moItems abundantly
show an increased capacity as well as
sizs in the heart and large blood yes
sells. The lungs increase both in length
and breadth, forcing the ribs outward
and the diaphragm downwards. It is
for this reason that athletes and gym
nasts are enabled to make prolonged
and violent exeTtions without getting
out of wind. The capacity of the heart
and central arteries being enlarged,
they can accommodate more blood.
Their coniraotile power being increased
by this new demand upon them, they
are enabled to send on the current
through the lungs with increased veloc-
ity, and thus by their greater capacity
are able to oxygenize the blood as fast
as it is supplied to them. and so no con-
gestion takes place, and no inoonven-
ience is felt. The normal capacity of
the Lungs of an adult male Is about two
hundred GOO cubic inches. It is com
puted that an enlargement of three
inches around the chest gives an in
crease of fifty cubic inches of lung
capscitv.

A luxurious 8 Hotel.


A correspondent says: A great and
puissant Turkish banker in Paris is
building himself stunning hotel that
is even making Paris talk. Madame's
suite of apartments is already finished,
and said to be beyond anything ever
dreamed of by a Lns or a sYathek.
The walls Of the cabinet de toilette are
covered with Louis XVI. rcretonnes.
and the ceiling is formed by the same
material, drawn into the center in the
shape of an immense sun. From the
middle hangs a night. lamp of Bohe
milan glass and Yenisian gold. When
this is lit and the curtains drawn you
cannot fnd the door unless you happen
to know madame intimately. On one
side the room is washing toilet with
marble top, two yards and a half in
length, completely fitted out with all an
elegante can require. A wardrobe is
placed opposite, with three compart-
ments, and three mirrors for doors.
The center is false and opens into the
bathroom. which is a wonder of con-
veniencs, luxury, and artistic elegance.
The hath-tub is of Carrara marble, and
the carving, the inlaid woods brought
from Constantinople, and the tinted
porcelain bricks wainscotting the apart
ments, are pronounced of the purest
taste. There are Turkish baths, and
baths pure ard simple ia this miracu-
lous gem of a room. The bedroom and
oratory are equally perfect in design,
the latter being furnished with tapes
tries wrought by Nine. ii. s own hands.
The mountains as of the most exquisite
ebony. But one thing regarding Mr..
HIS own grand hotel has singularly
escaped observation it is petite but
modern seralgio, as yet unoccupied.

PBzFKRRED A FEATHER BED.-You
know that the barn swallows build their
nests under the caves or sometimes
among the rafters of barns. These
nests are always built OF mud, and usu-
ally neatly lined with fine hay or straw.
But 1t seems that some swallows prefer
a lining Of feathers. A bird friend Of
mine found an empty nest, beautifully
lined with fne whita chicken feathers.
Thinking ths Eest a curiosity, and not
being 8 swallow himself, he pulled It
carefully down. He thought It wasn't
cruel to do this, because no eggs had
Jet been laid, but he vas mist AIKEN. )
In few dsys he found that the szsl-
lows had built another nest in the ssme
spot. and also lined with the same sort
offeathers. So it is evident that at
least this pair Of swallows preferred
feather bed to a straw hed.-St.
Nicholas.

Mss CLARA LOUISE KELLOGG was
born IN South Carolina. Her whole life
has been devoted to music. Her
mother, who always accompanies her,
says that at the sge Of ten months her
daughter hummed plantation air which
had been daily sung to her by a colored
nurse. But while Miss Kellogg has
great natural gifts, her life has been
one Of great study, and she has gained
her present high position IN the musical
world only by great and continuous
effort. Her intention is to remain on
