prettily arranged when we started out,
has a tendency to stand on end. There
is prospect of nothing being becoming,

asked, "What style we prefer to see ?"
We reckiessly answer, "No particular

move our bonnet with an actual reluc-
lance to part with it. Again we go
through the old story. Our friend, who
looks slightly fatigued, suddenly finds
everything we try on becoming We

our head is unusually small and that it
is necessary to have style copied. We
find one, we think, does nicely. We

in particular. We are consoled about our
small head, however, by the thought that
it is a great beauty, though inconven-
lent. We bid our friend good-by and
tell her we are sure we could have done
nothing without her. We speak of our
success to the head of the house at din

we paid for our purchase. We take
long breath and boldly state the cost.

Nerves.


Overstrained nerves are troublesome
to their unfortunate possessors unless
they can succeed in forgetting them
selves The nervous mans cure lies
pretty much in his own hands. Excess
OF any kind is constantly the parent OF
nervous depression. So, too, are excit-
ing amusements, such as gambling. Too
much novel reading is an unsupported
but often very powerful contributing
cause. Overw0rk, alas! is one which it
is not so easy to remedy as to denounce,
when "there's little to earn and many to
keep" and it often strains the nerves
and brains too heavily. What is some
times ridicnled as "a hobby" is Of the
greatest use to hard-worked men; music,
gardening, a lathe, even rabbits or cana
ries will serve tic purpose The hobby
should be readily accessible, and for
most people inexy3 nsive; but it should
involve an entire change of thought and
occupation, and be as little connected as
possible with the individuals ordinary
business or pursuit. A good hobby is
often a wonderful relief to the overtaxed
mind. Too little exercise and too much
tea ruin the nerves of many q woman.
Men often try theirs By indulging too
freely in the use Of tobacco. Young men,
and, above all, growing lads are very
unwise if they employ tobacco at all.
The diabolical cruelty of frightening
young children is almost certain to sow
the seeds of nervous weakness; so does
harsh treatment in later childhood. And
oyerdriving and harrassing young lads
and girls, whether at books Or at work,
oil tend in the same direction. Competi-
tive examinations have to answer for
some cases Of enfeebled nerves. Simple
habits, moderation in ell things, cheer
full amusements or pastines, and reason
bic care. viii go far to prevent nervous
ness. But when it is confirmed, exercise
and plenty Of fresh aif are the best rem
edies known.

Anecdotes of ShiDwrecked Men.

Lord did not find the Galapagos
islands SO much to his mind as did an
Irlshman, who let his ship depart with
out him, and set up his rest on one Of
these volcanic islets, dwelling there for
seven years III howell of his own build
ing, living upon tortoises, seals and fish,
washed down with rum obtained from
ships in exchange for the potatoes and
pumpkins he busted himself in raising.
In 1918, an American sailor was taken
off a desolate rock in the South seas by
a boats crew belonging to H. M. S.
Queen Charlotte, whose attention had
been drawn to the spot by the smoke Of
a seaweed fire. He had three years be-
fore been left there with three COM
pani0ns, all of whom had quickly sue
cumbed, while he had lived on, sustain
ing life byfeeding on the flesh of birds and
drinking their blood.
The find of the Queen Charlotte's men
was not SO surprising as that of the
Flemish seaman, Pickman, when, in
1916, his ship grounded near small
island rock between Scotland and Ire
land. Some of his men, going in search
of eggs, came upon black hairy Great
ure, who by signs entreated them to
come to close acquaintance, and, finding
the strange object to be really man,
they took him on board with them to
tell the skipper his story. It was
melancholy one. He and two others,
occupants of the passage boat between
England and Ireland, had been captured
and afterward cast off by French pri-
vateer. Having nothing eatable save a
little sugar with them, one of the three
soon died Of starvation, the others lived
to be driven On the island, where they
built hut cut of what was left of the
boat, and for six weeks lived on sea-
news, sea-dogs, eggs, and water. Then
the partners in misfortune parted com
pany, one of them disappearing, leaving
his forlorn friend in utter Ignorance Of
his fate; he could only surmise that he
had fallen into the sea while searching
for eggs. Months passed, and the poor
fellow lost all hope of deliyerance. Win
ter came, and found him clothesless.
Compelled to keep within the hut for
days together, he only kept starvation
at bay by catching sea-mews, as hungry
as himself, by baited sticks thrust
through the openings of the novels
walls. So he kept himself alive until
the accidental advent of the London
bound Flemish timber ship released him
from his dreary durance. Chambers

"I'll ask her about it. Wait, keep

You'll trust Shocks, presume, he
went on in faltering manner.
Certainly" she replied, If he says
to let you hayeit."
"You don't think the telephone would
lie, do your"
"Assuredly not. I'll just ask Mr..
Shocks"
"No, no. He's a sensitive man; he
wouldn't like so much fuss over q small
amount. Make it two dollars and
will give him receipt ON account"
I'll pay anything Mr.. Shocks says.
I'll call him"
Rather than call him again I'll
make it dollar. Give me dollar"
"But prefer to call him."
"Miss," said the man, '"dont go near
the wire now. There's a cloud coming
up. You're going to be struck by light
ming. Rather than that, I'd take 80
cents, quarter"
"Oh I'm not afraid" and she ap-
preached the instrument.
"Keep away from that wire | he
howled. Don't call Shocks. He might
be struck. IF you don't care for your
self have some mercy on his family.
You needn't pay the amount at all. l
wouldn't risk Shocks for all the money
in Brooklyn"
81 shall either call Shocks or police
man." said the girl firmly.
"Make it policeman and I'll go for
him myself" shouted the tramp, as he
jumped over the rail.
And then she called Shocks, who had
been swearing at his end of the wire in
hope Of making some one hear him, and
told him it was all right, she hadn't
quite paid the money.-Brooklya

OUR YOUNG FOLKS.

The awful fact is beyond doubt,
The cage was open, and Dick few out,
" What shall I do2" cried Pet half Wild,
And Nurse Deb says, Why, bress you, child.
] knows plan dat'n nebber fail;
Jes put some salt on yer birdies tail"
Why, you silly old nurse, 'twould never do;
That plan is worthy goose ike you.
What salt for birds. No sugar, say;
I'll coax him back to me right away"
But wicked Dick, With his round black eyes
He wouldn't be caught in tins gentle wise.
Mamma comes In, and she sees the plight;
1t will take her wits TO set 1t right;
That big bandana on Deb's black head,
Ere Dick can jump, 'tis over him spread;
Then two soft hands, they hold him fast;
The bright little rogue is caught at last.
As into his cage the truant goes
Pet says, " Now nurse, I do suppose
That salt and sugar, though,two nice things,
Are not a match for BRIDES wings:
And, Deb, think we must allow,
When things to be done mamma knows how
