Keeping Up Appearances.

A member of the sanitary police force
came across boy the other day who was
wheeling home load of oyster cans and
bottles, and curious to know what use
the lad could put them to, he made a
direct inquiry.
"Going to throw them over into our
back yard" replied the boy. 81 took
home two loads yesterday"
"But what do you use them forT
"Its trick of the family" grinned
the lad.
"How trickP
"I'd just as lief tell" }" resumed the boy
as he spit on his hands to take up his
barrow. Were going to have some
relations in from the country. We may
not have much to eat, but If they see
those cans and bottles and boxes they II
think we've had isters and champagne
and figs and nuts till we've got tired OF

A French physician is out in long
dissertation On the advantages of groan-
ing and crying in general, and especially
during surgical operations. He COM
mends that groaning and crying are two
grand operations by which nature allays
anguish; that those patients who give
way to their natural feelings more speed
lily recover from accidents and opera.
tions than those who consider it unwor-
thy man to betray such symptoms of
cowardice to either groan or cry.
He tells of q man who reduced his
pulse from l26 to GO in the course Of o
few hours by giving full vent to his emo
tions. If people are at all unhappy
about anything, let them so into their
rooms and comfort themselves with a
loud boo-hoo, and they will feel one hun
dred per cent afterward.
In accordance with the above, the
crying of children should not be too
greatly discouraged, If it is systemati-
cally repressed, the result may be st.
Vitus's dance, epileptic fits, or some
other disease of the system. What is
natural is nearly always useful, and
nothing can be more natural than the
crying of children when anything occurs
to give either physical or mental pain.

The Hight at which Birds Fly

1t is much to be desired that some
thing positive were known as to the
hight at which it may be possible for
birds to perform their passages but ON

taken up in his celebrated balloon ascent,

definite deductions. One pigeon thrown
out at hight of three miles "eNtended

miles, in the descent, ''hew in circle" /"
and then alighted on the balloon. OF
the two remaining pigeons, one was
found to be dead. Perhaps little more
"practice" or experience is wanted,
but, at any rate, the results do not seem
to favor the notion that birds can fly
comfortably at those nights.
