American RestleSsness.

From the beginning, the America,
have been a migratory people. New
Englanders, as we have seen, planted
themselves in Westchester and on Long
Island, came by throngs into East Jer-
sey, and migrated to the more south ern
colonies. So Virginians helped to peo-
pie Maryland and North Carolina, mi
grated northward to New York, and
even before the revolution, began t.
look wistful'v over the mountain barrier
into the great interior valley. New
York Dutch migrated to South Carolina;
some of them settled also in Maine,
Pennsylvania, and Maryland; while
Pennsylvania, excited by fear of In
dian massacre during the French wars,
occupied much of the mountain and
"piedmont" regions of the colonies to
the southward. It is said that Of three
thousand five hundred militia men Of
Orange county in North Carolina, dur
ing the revolution, every man was ma
tive of Pennsylvania. There was an in
cessant movement to and fro of people
seeking to better their condition. Once
the European had broken away from
his mooring of centuries the vastness Of
the new continent piqued him, and be
became q rover. This instability as to
place remains yet in the American char
acter. The mental alertness, which
comes of changing circumstances. new
scenes, and unexpected difficulties, was
early remarked by travellers as char
acteristic OF the natives OF the colonies.-

Fatty Heart.
For the Companion.


We cave spoken of the tendency in
! old ages to both fatty and calcareous de-
; generation. The former is the more
common. The greatest liability to it is
in the heart and the arteries of the brain,
where also the consequences are the
most serious.
III tho corpulent, fat may be deposited
around the heart SO as to encase it, OF
within the cavities of the heart, or be.
ever, is "fatty infiltration." In fatty de-
generation the muscular fibre itself is
transformed to fat, though it retains it's
proper size.
The heart is strong, tough, unresting
muscle, by whose vigorous action the
blood ia driven through the system,
furnishing every part with food and
bearing away the waste. If this organ
is weakened, every other suffers. 1t
will be readily seen how greatly it must
be weakened il. to any considerable ex-
tent, fat takes the place of tough elastic
fibre.
The degeneration may be general or
partial The latter is the more COM
mon. And yet persons have died in.
stantly by rupture of the heart, when
the disease had not even been suspec-
ted.
The disease progresses steadily, it may
be for years, the person becoming more
and more feeble, until he suddenly dies
in a fainting- Ht-frem the inability of the
heart to throw sufficient blood to the
brain,-or from the hearts rupture.
Sometimes patient becomes gradually
weaker, general dropsy sets in, and he
dies of debility.
Even at an early stage, slight exer-
tons or excitements or improper food
causes palpitation and difficulty OF
breathing. and often acute pains in the
breast, ringing in the ears, giddiness;
faintness. Attacks of faintness become
more frequent with the increasing weak
ness of the heart. The spirits are apt
to become depressed and the feeling IT.
ritable and lnorose.
The system needs to be sustained with
a generous but easily-digested diet, and
braced with tonics and outdoor air. In
staneous death may be the price of any
violent exercise, effort or passion,-any-
thing that excites the heart.

Rad Outlook for Ireland.


An important interview with Parnell was
had recently. The first question was whether
he thought the measures Of repression would
become yet more stringent in consequence
of the recent events in London, which have
been attributed to Irish revolutionary agents.
Mr.. Parnell smiled ironically and said:

culinary repression. We already live under

No Reflections on Washington

There is a perversity about the mem.
ory which often leads it to play off its
pranks upon the man who trusts it. For
instance: if a speaker forgets the speech
he had committed, he is almost certain
to stop Just where the failure makes him
Iudicrous. The following anecdote Is an
illustration of this irritating fact:

"Mr. Speaker, when reflect on the

and came to sudden stop. Beginning
sgain, he said, "Mr. Speaker, when re-

memory brought him to sudden halt.
For the third time he attempted to 80

act that speaks as loudly of his kindness
of heart as that of the genuiness of his
good breeding. '"The new member"
who had remained over in Washington
after the close of the session, had wan
dered up to the white house to see
about making "Mariar Prices daughter

The Hon. George L. Otis a prominent
lawyer and distinguished citizen of st. Paul
and the northwest died Thurday evening at
his residence, Of pulmonary disease With
which he has been afflicted for upwards Of
two years. Mr.. Otis was born at Homer, in
Cortland county New York, Oct. 1929,
and descends from the Massachu-
sets family of that name. He
was admitted to the bar during 1865,
and in 0 ctober Of th4t year came to st.
Paul, where has since resided In the enjoy
ment Of a lucrative practice. He held at
various times important offices and at one
time came very near being elected governor,
an office he did not desire. As a lawyer.
Mr.. Otis has taken an honorable position at
the bar; as man, he was above reproach

Roof Life in New York.

Progressive architects have again and
again suggested that the roof of high
buildings should be utilized for the ben
eft of the occupants, by turning them
into gardens and Fairgrounds.
A London architect has said that in
the house of the future the kitchen will
be in the highest story and on the roof
will be ''sass" garden, which will furn-
ish fresh vegetables for the family table.
A correspondent of the New York
Times, in describing the queer lives led
by janitors' families, indirectly shows
that the architects idea may be realized
some day. He says:
know a janitor who has charge Of
big building down Broadway, who ha
four little tots of children, and they
don't get down into the street more thar
once week or 50.
Two of them were born in the seventh
story of an immense iron building, just
under the roof. One of them to my GER
tain knowledge has never been down il
the street at all. That's fact. It win
be down some day. 1t was born only
last week.
Where. do you think the children's
playground is3 tits the roof; and a rare,
good yard it is. too, with flowers grow
ing on it, and everything just like a good
big, paved yard.
There is high ledge around the four
sides, 10 there is no danger ofthe young
sters falling of. And there are clothes
lines there, and tubs standing abb 1T, and
clothes-pins lying on the ground, - very
thing so natural you might easily imag-
inc yourself in somebody's back, yard
Those children seldom see anything
of the world down below; and their
mother hardly ever does, for she has her
hands full taking care of the youngsters.
There is nice secluded life for you,
with no danger Of annoyance from pry-
tractive about 1t, too. -.
Just think Of the janitor. at dark, shut
ting up the whole place, and barring the
iron doors with himself inside. There
he is, with his family about him, and all
the world securely locked out.
It is as good as living in castle with
the bridge drawn up and the moat full
of water. n y. - a. .,~-;
: But even when the outer doors are
locked, the janitors are not always shut
in from the world. There ii q block of
buildings in one of the principal business
centres of the city all about the same
height .ufsF.5 Ill
Each building has it's janitor, and each
ianitor has it's family. When the outer
doors are shut and locked and no out
slider can by any possibility make his
way in, the janitors' families begin to
visit. 80 %$3 -
sss The roofs: form their avenues and
boulevards, their grand promenade.
There is something slightly curious about
that way of living, isn't there?-having;
your neighbor dropped through the roof
instead Of coming through the door.
Il is something like the way Of living
OF the old cave-dwellers In the south
west. IS
