Poison In Food ana ChIldren's Toys.

The Paris authorities have recently been
preaching a crusade against the Use Of poi
sons. 1t seems some fragrant instances
have been detected. The posons which
have been selected for suppression by the
Parisiau police include kind of yellow
sackoloth in which American hams have,
in certain cases, been packed for the Euro
pean market. Many of these are quite
harmless, and keep the commodities fresh
and pure, but in some chromate of lead has
bcci. used to render the sacking water
proof, if not air-tight, and, though the re
suit has been attained, tho hams have been
poisoned. A peculiar kind of sailed her
ring has also been placed on the schedule
Of dangerous comestibles, as the analysis
shows that the color is obtained with bl-
chromatc of potash. But more insidi-
Gus attempt has been detected in the case
Of chldrcn's toys colorcd with poisonous
paints. The French authorities when thoy
commence crusade, generally continue it
to tic end, and their efforts differ both IN
energy and success from the capriclous and
dilatory proceedings by which, in this
country, slightly poisonous food is often al
lowed to be sold with impunity.

Outdoor Games,

Physical exercise can be, and often is,
carried to excess but every ono should
practice it within reasonable limits. A
gentleman should not only know how to
fence, to box, to ride, to shoot, to swim,
and to play at billiards, he must also know
how to carry himself, and how to dance, if
he would enjoy life to the uttormost. A
good carriage Is only obtained by the help
of drilling master, and boxing must also
he scientifically taught. A man should
make himself able to defend himself from
rufllans, and to defend women from them
also. What fencing and drilling arc to man,
dancing and calisthcnic exercises arc to a
young woman. Every lady should know
how to dance, whether she intends to dance
IN society or not; the better the physical
training. the moro graceful and sclf-posscss.
ed she will be. Swimming, skating, arch
cry, or games Of lawn.tcnn and croquet,
riding and driving, all help to strengthen
tho muscles, and to take tho young out into
the open air, which makes these games
desirable. The subject Is ono that too
much cannot be said Of by parents, teach
crs. and educational reformers. Such
training should commence in childhood.

Roman Catholics, who engaged their lives
and fortunes to achieve American lndcpcn-
dence, as well as that OF the Jews. At the

the system Of the Church Of England, as it
obtained in Virginia, where the system was
tolerant, as some have thought, lax. Yet,
whatever may have been the tendencies

ington was in sympathy with the established
order observing all the forms. In the earlier
portion of his life, before his time became
otherwise absorbed, he was all active vest

hewould otliciate in the absence of the chap

funeral of Braddock; and Lee Massey,

OF Washington, are carefully preserved,

havior at church was deeply revercntial,
and produced the happicst effect upon the
congregation. In advanced age he may not
have attended the communion i'm public rs
formerly, but OF this we have no proof.
The proof however, is also wanting that
he actually did maintain his former
practice. When the period arrived in
which all eyes were fixed upon his
movements, it would appear as though
his natural reserve modified his Gus
toms in general, and that he rctrcatcd

Pitch Pine.

From Wilmington, N. g, southwark and
nearly all the way to Florida, the pitch
pine trees, with their blazeu sides, attract
the attention OF the traveller. The lands for
long stretches arc almost worthless and
the only industry, beyond small patches of
corn or cotton, is the " boxing" of the
pitch pine trees for the gum, rs it IS called
and the manufacture of turpcntinc and re-
SIN. There arc several kinds of pine trees
including tho white, spruce, yellow, Rou-
many and pitch pine. The latter is the only
valuable one for boxing, and differs little
from the yellow pine, with which it is
sometimes confounded ut the North. The
owners OF these pine lands generally
lease the privilege for the business, and
receive about 1928 for crop, which con
sists of 10000 boxes. The boxes are cavities
cut intothc tree near the ground in such a
way as to hold about quart, and from one
to four boxes arc cut In each tree, the num-
Der depending Oh It's size. One man can
attend to and gather the crop cf 10000
boxes during the season, which lasts from
March to September, About three quarts

the tree has become hard, ii is removed by

Eating without AN Appetite.

1t Is wrong to cat without an appetite,
for it shows there is no gastric juice in tho
and that nature docs not need
food; and not needing it, there beng no
juice to receive and act upon it, it remains
there to putrofy, the very thought of which
should be sufficient to deter any man from
eating without an appetite for the remain
der of his life. If Il tonic Is taken to whct
the appetite, 1t is mistaken course, for It's
only result is to cause one to eat more
when already an amount has been eaten
beyond what the gastric has been able to
prepare. The object to be attained is a
larger supply OF gastric juice, and not a
larger supply of food; and whatever fails TO
accomplish that desirable ject fails to havo
any efficiency toward tho cure of dyspcptic
diseases. The formation of gastric juices
is directly proportioned to the wear and
tear of the system, which is to to be the
means Of supplying, and this wear and
tear can only take place as the result
Of exercise. The efficient remedy for dys.
pepsia is workout. .of-door work--bene-
fetal and successful In direct proportion as
it is agreeable, interesting and profitable. "

Rules for Living.

| am no doctor, quack Or pill-vcndcr, yet
| have had pretty good long life and Il
happy one. May l not, therefore, just
give my simple rules for health in hopes
some poor traveller on the up or down llill
may look ut them and perhaps be benefited
by them1 Ipracticed them for many years
and they have done me good; perhaps
they may do good to others. They
are inexpensive, and may be easily aban-
dOncd if they cause any harm.
l.. Keep in the sunlight just as much as
possible. A plant will not thrive without
the sunbeam much less a man.
Q. Breathe as much fresh air as your
business will permit. This makes fresh
blood, but it will never be found within tho
four walls Of your building. Beneath the
open sky, just there, and there only, it
comes to you.
8. Be strictly temperate. You cannot
break organic law, Or any other law, with
impunity.
4. Keep the feet always warm and the
head cool. Disease and death begin at the
feet more commonly than VIC think.
u. If out OF order, sec which of the
above rules you have not observed, then
rub yourself all over with a towel, satu-
rated with salt water, and we'll dried, und
begin upon tho rules again.
7. Look ever on the bright side which
is tho heaven side of life. This is far
better than any medicine.
These seven simple rules, good for tho
valid or invalid, If rightfully observed,
would save, apprchend, great deal ol
pain, prolong your life, and 80 far as hcaltl
goes. it makes it worth having.

the skin OF their fuccs seem much smoother
