"You mustn't touch the top of the babv's

''she has soft spot there that is very tender ;,
The youngster gazed at it curiously for mo-

''Do all babies have soft spots on their

"Yes"
"Did papa have soft spot on the top of his

Yes" replied the mother, with sigh, "and

Fearful Position.

A Geneva (Switzerland) correspondent
writes GA few days since two school
masters from Morzine, Savoyard vii
lage near the Swiss frontier, made an
excursion to the Col de Ooux, not far
from Ohampery, in the Valsis. As they
were descending the mountain, late in
the afternoon, they thought they heard
cries of distress. After long search
they perceived man holding on TO q
bush, or small tree, which had struck
its roots into the face of the precipice.
As the precipice was nearly perpendic-
ular, and the man was some 1000 feet
below them, and the foot of the preci.
pice quite as far below him, they found it
impossible to give the poor fellow any
help. All they could do was to tell him
to stay where he was-if he could-un-
til they came back, and hurry off to
Morzine for help. Though it was night
when they arrived thither, dozen bold
mountaineers, equipped with ropes,
started forthwith for the rescue. After
a walk ofitwelve miles they reached the
Col de ia Golese, but it being impossi-
BILE to scale the rocks in the dark, they
remained there until the sun rose. As
soon as there was sufficient light they
climbed by roundabout path to the
top of the precipice. The man was still
holding on to the bush. Three of the
rescue party, fastened together with
cords, were then lowered to a ledge
about 600 feet below. From this
coign of vantage two of the three
lowered the third to the bush. He
found the man, who had been seated
astride his precarious perch a day
and night between life and death. It
was wonder how he had been able to
hold on so long, for beside suffering
from hunger and cold, he had been
hurt in the fall from the height above.
He was a reserve man belonging to
Sameons on his way thither from Lau
same, where he was working, to be
present at a muster. Losing his way
on the mountains between Thonon and
Sameons, he had missed his footing and
rolled over the precipice. He had the
presence of mind to cling to the bush,
which broke his fall, but if the two
schoolmasters had not heard his cries
he must have perished miserably.
Hosting him to the top of the preci-
pice was difficult and perilous under
taking, but it was safely accomplished.
None of the mans hurts were danger
GUS, and after long rest and hearty
meal or two, he was pronounced fit to
continue his journey and report himseli
at the muster"

WISE WORDS.

The qualities we possess never make
MS so ridiculous Of those we pretend to
have.
Suspicious among thoughts are like
bats among birds; they ever fly by twi-
light.
Seeing much, and suffering much and
studying much, are the three pillars
learning.
Little do we care for the speech Of
people II conscience will not whisper
approval.
Make friends with your creditors if
you can, but never make a creditor of
your friend.
One who is never busy can never en-
Joy rest, for rest implies relief from
previous labor.
He who labors with the mind gov
erns others he who labors with the
body is governed by others.
Every day little helpfulness. We
live for the good Of others, If our living
be in any sense true living.
Somebody says every failure is step
10 success. This will explain why the
oftener some men fail the richer they
become
The world we live in is the best
world possible to those who use it, aud
the worst world possible to those who
abuse il.
Do we not feel that we are apt to
think OF ourselves as others think OF us
and that not by q rational act OF judg.
ment, but by mere passive yielding to
an impression from withoutP
When we have practiced good actions
awhile they become easy, and when
they become easy we begin to take
pleasure in them, and when they
please us we do them frequently.
Form, then, the habit Of doing good.

HEALTH HINTS.

Accustom children to eat regularly
and slowly.
Impure air kills as surely as pure cir
keeps alive.
Meat should be eaten very sparingly
during the warm months.
The mightiest curative force in the
universe lies in the person.
Let the liver rest by giving up tea,
coffee, sugar, salt and butter.
What is called mixed diet is bad
food for adults in hot weather, and very
bad for children.
According to DR.. Foote'S Health
Monthly, a glass of water, taken when
retiring and on rising, will often re-
lieve costiveness.
OF all the means which can be used
to give strength, tone and intrinsic
power to the physical organization,
working the soil is the best.
There is eminent medical authority
for the statement that unripe or very
old potatoes contain a certain quantity
of solanine. This may produce serious
results il the potatoes are boiled with
their skins on, and if they are eaten in
large quantities.

A Novel Suggestion,

The Cleveland Leader publishes a
column editorial article advocating the
employment of bees as aids to the police
in suppressing disorder in cities. The
Leader says:
ALI that is necessary to be done is for
the police to keep on hand supply OF
bee-hives filed with the most stingy
kind of bees. 1t may be difficult to
feed them on flowers, but that ought to
be overcome. Sugar, honey and molas-
ses are good substitutes for flowers. In
case of a riot all policeman needs to
do is to take three or four hives in a
wagon and drive in the midst of a mob
and dump his hives, and then beat a
precipitate retreat. In comparison to
these hives OF bees, all the military,
Gatling guns or armed police would be
as nothing in point of efficiency in scat.
tering a mob and sending them all
bowling to their homes Men can face
revolvers, cannons, guns and all other
implements of warfare, but they will run
before a swarm of vindictive bees
Bees cost nothing, comparatively, and
besides no lives will be lost. If the
Pittsburg police had only twenty hives
of bees during the great riot of IT. and
turned them loose, the streets would
Immediately have become as quiet as q

measure three or four inches across the
middle, and are made by circular rows

rows OF three on the dress skirt and on
the upper skirt, with one row on the
collar and sleeves. Dark brown circles
of braid are stylish on tan or drab wool

The Trade In False Hair.

Hair has been so ill-treated by fa1h,o
that its vitality is now seriously im
paired. What with the strain and orer
heating due to the blending of the falls
with the real, the binding, the crimp-
ing, the curling and the dyeing, vast
number Of ladies have premAturely lost
all or a greater part of this graceful
appendage OF the human form divine.
Hence the unwelcome fashion, adopted
perforce, of wearing short hair, as
preferable to no hair, has gained
ground, and we hope the refreshing
effect Of the scissors may repair some OF
the mischief done. At the same time,
the demand for false hair has greatly
increased, while the supply has
diminished to an extent qualified
as perfectly alarming by the West
End coitfeurs. Europeans either
will not sell their hair or have no longer
any hair to sell, and the trade has been
compelled 10 travel further afleld. The
actual supply OF false hair for the
European markets is now for the most
part imported via Marseilles from Asia
Minor, India, China and Japan. But
the hair imported from these countries
is almost invariably black, and fails n :.
terly to harmonic with the auburn and
golden tints that so we'll beft North
ern complexion. Il has, therefore,
been found necessary 10 boil the hair in
diluted nitric acid to deprive it OF it's
original color, and it then can be dyed
to the tint most in vogue. This opera
tion has, however, been attended with
considerable danger to the workmen
engaged in this new handicraft. Sc
we're coughs, bronchitis and other aoci.
dents were the natural results of the
nitrous vapor escaping from the cal
drons used for boiling the hair. This
new danger appears to have been first
discovered by DIR. Felix, OF Bucharest,
and the Roumanian council OF hygiene
has issued circular to all members ol
the trade warning them Of the danger
and suggesting the necessary precau-
tions. These facts fail TO harmonic
with the poets conception that beauty
can draw love with single hair. The
demand is for hair by the ton, and it il
time to see that in adapting the color oi
Eastern hair to Western usages the
work should be carried out under
proper supervision. We should strongly
object to hairdressers indulging il
amateur dabbling with dangerous
chemicals, especially nitric acid.-LOn
don Lancet.
