Rocking the Cradle.

The mother that rocks and sings her
child to sleep is unconsciously illustrat-
ing scientific principle. The heart
and the system of circulation are popu-
larly thought never to rest. But science
shows that under usual and fair condi-
tons their rest is perpetual. In other
words, by their rhythmic or measured
motion in health, the organs of circula-
ton rest between each pulse-that is to
say, eight hours out of the twenty-four
as has been calculated by computing
the pauses between the beats of the
pulse. The monotonous rhythm of a
simple cradle-song, and the gentle mo-
ton of the rocking-chair or cradle are
in harmony with the rhythm of the
heart, and, the brain being disengaged.
sleep follows. The brain may be said
to be the part of the animal econ
omy which sleeps entirely. Dur
ing healthy sleep the brain is to a
great degree bloodless, and this
is shown indirectly by the greater cir
culation of the blood in the skin and ex-
tremities during sleep. Healthy diges-
ton, after a fairly full but not excessive
meal, promotes sleep, by the calling off
of the blood from the brain to the stom-
ach. A curious but familiar illustration
of the accord between the heart move
ments and external measured sounds or
motions, is shown when the nurse stops
''humming'' and the troublesome baby
wakes straight up and provokingly
opens its staring eyes. The concert
is interrupted and the sleepy accord of
the heart with the successive cadences
of the lullaby is broken. This is why
the cessation of usual sounds will wake
an adult sleeper. 1t is even stated that
soldiers who have fallen asleep during
a cannonade have wakened when the
noise suddenly ceased.

ADefense of Large Feet.

A Philadelphia lady writes to the New
York Graphic: I protest against al
this talk about large feet as if they were
personal disgrace or deformity, an6
small feet as if they were a sign o.
beauty. In the first place, this is not
true. No lady who is of average height
and weighs one hundred and fifty ought
to wear smaller shoe than No. 8 B.
A smaller foot than that-at any rate a
shorter foot-becomes a personal blem-
ish. Moreover, all this talk is demon
alizing. When Gabriel blows his horn
you newspaper men will have heap of
sins to answer for. Your descriptions
of fashionable parties and your praise
of Miss Soandso and Nine. Suchaone
as the beautiful - ''the bewitching, -
and ''tne peerless" all tends in the
wrong direction-all tends to make fools
of sensible young women. The old
fashioned eulogies of wasp-waists have
passed away, and the "waist of the pc
Rod - is more natural than that of the
preceding generation. Let us hope that
all this silly talk about the necessity of
having microscopic feet will soon also
pass away. es. 5,4.--

Is it Not a wonder That We Liver

1t is estimated that nearly one-half OF the
human family are to day sufferers with some
of the following symptoms: A faint, all
gone sensation at the pit of the stomach that
food will not remove, feeling like load
on the stomach after eating, a dizzy sensa-
ton in the head, bad taste in the mouth,
with foul breath, cold feet and hands with
a clammy feeling, hot fushes at times, at
tended with great nervous prostration with
evil forebodings, sometimes a sour, burn
ing sensation after eating, with a costive
habit and all the unpleasant symptoms ac-
companying it. Some doctors name the dis
ease liver complaint, some impurity Of the
blood, some dyspepsia, and some kidney
disease; but none Of them appear to afford
any permanent relief, and the poor sufferers
sink lower and lower, till death finally comes
to their relief. Latterly there has been a
remedy made by the Shakers, called SHAKER
EXTRACT OF ROOTS mot patent medi-
cine), that effects a radical cure for all OF
these symptoms, and we advise a trial. Sold

Waiting.

Dark. silent, cold. the sad earth lies,
Waiting to hear the blackbird sing,
Waiting late change of winters signs
And tears. to laugh and song Of spring.
So, under leadeu skies, while
My hearts lone " inter, sad and dumb,
Watching until my spring shall smile,
Waiting what time my love will come.
The crocus soon. from paper fold,
A cup of flame will burst; and soon
The butterfly. in coat of gold
And purple. scorn its pale cocoon;
Soon shan hear the cuckoo's cry,
See swallows sail from DER the sea.
Soul Of my souli take wings and ny;
Come. my life's spring, at last to mel
Mid eyes, like springs eyes, mild and fairi:.
Sweet mouth, more sweet than springs first
More than springs rarest singers rare
Music and voice my heart well knowsi
Ali II for you wait in vain.
No sapphire roof, no emerald floor,
No waking bud, no whispering rain.
Not spring herself, win please me morei

An Unfortunate Woman.

1t is highly prob able that the widow
of Alexander T. Stewart will he ann oy
ed and prosecuted beyond measure by
beggars of various degrees, even now
that Judge Hilton is employed to assist
her in disbursing it. If she had retain
ed the whole she could not, during her
life, give away more than the mercst
fraction of the interest of her vast for.
tune. II she knew on whom to bestow
it, and occupied all her time in making
small donations, she could not give it
all away during her lifetime. Suppose
her to be worth $50, 900, 900, and to dis
burse only the interest, she could get
rid of $4,000 a day, or $1,000 every
working hour. In other words, she
could perpetually give away SIG min
ute for ten hours of every working day
and never touch the principal! If re
solved to transfer to others the entire
fortune, it would take her year if she
counted out $3.50 second. In 800
bills, laid end to end, it would reach
from the Battery to Central Park. If
divided into 81 bills, and kept at COM
pound interest, neither Mrs. Stewart
nor any single line of successors could
ever count it and give it away, even if
the counting were continued for thou
sands of years and each counted as fast
as possible. If it was all in $40 bills
and thief should get access to the pile
and take one bill minute, it would re-
quire more than thirty years for him to
capture the fortune. Then in some
States he could be punished only for
petit larceny, because the individual
thefts would amount g to less than S15."
On the whole Mrs. Stewart and her le-
gal Cerberus are not to be envied.-

Bear Stories from Vermont.

They tell of a Senator Foster, who
lived for many years at Brighton, Vt,
and who, though not a large man, dis
tinguished himself by great strength,
Being in the woods one day, so the story
runs, he saw two bear cubs lying on the
ground with their noses turned toward
each other. He had gun, but wanted
them alive. Placing his gun in a po-
sition where he could swing it under his
arm after he had secured his prey, he
crept softly to the sleeping animals, and
suddenly grasped each by the nose. He
expected in this manner to hold them
so firmly that they could not squeal,
but one of them slipped from his grasp.
Nothing daunted, Jack caught him by
the hind leg, secured his gun and start
ed for home on the run. The cub
whose nose was free set up a loud cry,
and the old, mother soon made her APP
pearance. Jack heard her crashing
through the brush after him. 1t was
but so rods to the clearing, and he
had but 10 rods the start. 1t was a
case of life and death, but he wouldn't
give up the cubs. There was a high
log fence just in the edge of the clear
ing, and fortunately a large log lay
alongside. With one tremendous bound
Jack leaped on the log. Another mus
cular bound carried him over the fence
into the field. The bear was on the
fence as soon as Jack struck the ground.
But she hesitated moment about fol
lowing him in the open field, and he
sped away so fast that she finally turned
back into the woods, and Jack escaped.
On another occasion this Nimrod was
in the woods unarmed, one March day,
when the snow was six feet deep, and
the surface so soft that no one could
walk on it without snow-shoes, pair
of which Jack had on. A bear which
had lust awaked from his winter nap
made dive at him. He leaped away
from the brute, but went deep into
the snow, and bruin was upon him.
The battle began, man and beast roll
ing over each other in the desperate
struggle. AS often as the bear
tried to seize him with her teeth or
overpower him with the fatal hug, Jack
would always save himself by kicking
her on the nose with his snow-shoes.
Finally, with one fierce plunge of claws
and teeth the brute fastened upon Jack,
and, failing to hold him, tore off almost
all his clothing at single swoop, but,
fortunately, just at that moment, he
hit the tip of her nose most powerful
kick. A blow on the end of the nose
causes pain so acute as to disable a
bear for a time, and it had that effect
in this case. The brute gave back a
little, and, and while she was wincing
under the pain, Jack regained his feet
and got several steps away. His assail-
ant started after him again, but the
snow was too soft and she almost bur-
led herself at every step, while Jack
walked on the surface and escaped.
So his saow-shoes, which rendered him
clumsy fighter, finally saved his life.
If these stories are not true they ought

lWaco Examiner, Texas, September 81
A party composed of W. Turner,E. Brown
and Thompson, from Kaufman county, had
been on the Brazos several days with horses.
On Thursday last Frank and Lacy Robin
son, Taylor Campbell, and Wiley Norman,
of Hill county, went to the camp and got
into dispute about race, which resulted
in fist fl ght. The parties agreed to settle
the thing in more satisfactory manner.
At 10 O'Clock on Friday morning, when the
parties had approached within twenty yards
of each other, Taylor Campbell fired at
Turner, and the battle commenced. Turner
leaped from his horse and fired three shots
with his needle-carbine. The first shct
went through Campbelrs brain, the second
caused the instant death of Frank Robinson,
and the last shot mortally wounded Lacy
Robinson; by this time ball from Thomp-
sons revolver had passed through poor Nor
mans breast, boy aged seventeen years,
and all of the Hill county party lay welter-
ing in their blood. Some twenty shots were
fired altogether. More than half the shots
were by the Hill county party, but, strange
to say, none of the Kaufman county men,
all boys, none of them being more than
nineteen or twenty years Of age, were hurt.
