Facts About the Human Body.

The average man measures about five
feet three and half inches, except when
he is on his way home after he has pro-
posed marriage and been refused, and
then he feels shrunk down to almost
nothing
The weight of the average male adult
is 140 pounds. What his wait is when
the average female adult is getting ready
to go to the theatre or a party, depends
upon how much she has to put on.
The human skeleton consists of over
200 distinct bones, a regular bone ans'er
for the medical student.
There are more than 500 muscles in the
human body. Snooks, who was kicked
off the doorstep of his inamorata by a
stern parental boot-toe, says there must
have been more than 5000 muscles in
that one leg.
About two-thirds of a pint of air is in
hailed at each breath in ordinary respira-
ton. Some mems breath, however, is
over two-thirds whisky.
The weight of the heart is from 8 to
II ounces. Men who cheat the printer
have hearts so small that no scales yet
invented are diminutive enough to weigh

Christmas Bells.

This is the day that Christ was borni
Hank to the music, sweet and wild,
That wakens glad hearts aud forlorn,
To greet the blessed Child
o, silver bells, that ring so clear
All the wintry morning gray,
Rouse up the sleeping world to hear
That Christ was born day.
Ring till the children start from sleep,
Sweet with the dream of Joy to be,
And clap their little hands and leap,
And shout aloud in glee.
Ring till the sorrowful ones of earth,
Whose lives are spent in toll and tears,
That leave, alas, no place for mirth
In all the dreary years,
Shall hear the tender words He said
Come unto me all we that mourn
And gather strength anew to tread
The path His feet have worn.
Ring loud. ring sweet. o, Christmas bells
And tune each waking soul to prayer,
The while your joyful psean sweIls
Upon the frosty air.
Through misty dawn and sunshine clear
Ring till the callous hearts of men,
Stirred with the thought of Christ so near
Grow warm and soft again
Ring till the tender impulse turns
To pitying thought, to generous deed;
Ring till the eager spirit burns
To succor all that necdi
And while We ring with heart and voice,
Glory TO God, let all men say,
And every living soul rejoice
That Christ was born to day

thousand would have escaped alive
replied the physician with purscd lips
and flashing ewes. "Well, all that can
be done now is to get him home. Then

Very tenderly was the noble-hearted
fellow taken to his humble abode, and
the scene, when he was laid upon the
bed, side by side with his sick wife and
children, caused every eye to overflow
with tears.

Tom Orion groaned heavily. The
sound awoke his little girl. She raised
up in bed, strained her eyes, clapped
her tiny hands and shouted in true
childish glee and wonder:
Mamma! Papa! See-an angel"
All eyes were turned in the direction
she pointed, and in the doorway stood
beautiful woman, leaning upon the
arm of the physician!
Yes, an angel had come to them,
Tom Orion had risked his life to save
that of the daughter of Or. Armitage
and his grandchildren, and the merest
chance had given them the knowledge

If gave you sickness,
If 1 brought you care,
Let him make one patience
And the other prayer.
If 1 broke your idols,

Let him turn the knowledge
Into heavenly trust.
If brought temptation,
Let sin die away
Into boundless pity
For all hearts that stray.
