Never DOze.

The London Lancet discusses the sue
iect frising at the end ofsleep Doing,
it declares, is not admissible from
any health point of view. The brain is
the first to fall asleep, and is followed
by the active organs, and is only per-
feet and natural when shared by all the
several parts of the organism. All the
parts of the system are not equally ex-
hausted, and those least fatigued soon
est wake, while those most exhausted
are aroused with the greatest difficulty.
The several parts of the organism
should need rest at the same time. To
bring this about, aperson should wake
early and feel ready to rise; this fair
and equal start of the. sleepers should
be secured, and wise self-manager
should not allow u drowsy feeling of
the consciousness, or weary senses, or
an exhausted system to beguile him
into the folly of going to sleep again
when once his consciousness has been
aroused" The writer declares that a
man who will not allow himself to doze,
will, in few days, find himself almost
unconsciously an ''earlY riser

A Horse Car Incident.

Two Acknowledgement young
women, one with water spaniel in a
leash Of rawhide, get into a car where
in are four passengers, one stern,
savage-loOking old man wearing gold
bowed glasses and reading a newspaper
The spaniel Immediately on entering
looks around and espies the old gentle
man. He evidently takes him for an
old friend, for he places his fore paws
on the old gentleman 5 knees and gives
two or three banks of delight and moves
his paws once down the old gentleman S
trousers. The O. g. does not recipro-
cate the CANNES manifestation of de-
light. He places his boot under the
dog S ribs, and, with ''Get out, YOU vile
curt lifts him the entire length of the
car. The pup, no doubt, would have
continued on his mad career it not
for the tension of the rawhide thong at
tached to the wrist of his mistress. She
exchanges a glance OF indignation with
her companion at this evidence of
''man's inhumanityn to dogs. The
dog whines, the passengers snicker
After minute or two the stern pas
senger is heard from once more. He
shouts Conductor, is this a dog carr"
The tall blonde is equal to the emergen-
cy, and, looking straight in the in
quirer's eyes, murmurs softly: eff it
was not for brutes the conductor would
have told you when you were getting

The Principle of Rest in Nature.

Throughout animated nature a re-
pose succeeds one of activity, both re-
curing in regular alienation The
vegetable world grows and blooms;
then, for season, all the vital pro-
eesses stand still. Work brings weari-
ness, which rest must dissipate. SO is
it with the tissues of the body; and the
younger and more delicately organized
they are, the sooner does toll exhaust
them. Brain-matter is the most deli
cate of all our tissues, and nearly one
third of the pure blood thrown out by
the heart at each contraction goes to
supply it. A tissue, when at work, has
its blood-supply largely increased.
When the mind is actively engaged in
study, the circulation in the brain is full
and active, the temperature is raised,
even the face is flushed; and the more
difficult the study, the more these effects
are intensified. After time, the brain
becomes so engorged with blood that
its activity is depressed and its ener-
gies begin to flag. The younger a
pupil is, the sooner does his mind grow
tired. Between the ages of six and
seven, the lessons should not exceed
ten minutes duration, as young chill
dren are unable to keep their attention
fixed upon one subject for q greater
length of time. 1t may be laid down
as a safe rule, that close mental appli-
cation for an hour and a half will tire
out the majority of pupils, and leave
them unfit and indisposed to proceed
further without relaxation of at least
ten or fifteen minutes.
Here the forenoon recess is indicated
not, as some imagine, simply to kill
time, but as positive physical neces-
sity, not for the pupil alone, but also
for the teacher. The worry and mental
strain of governing a roOmful of nerv-
Gus, restless children, and teaching at
the same time, no one can fully realize
without actual experience.
How should recess be spent by the
pupil? 70 reply TO this, his physical
condition must be considered. As the
blood is contained in a series of closed
vessels, it is evident that if the circula-
ton be increased in one portion, it is
correspondingly diminished in another.
When the brain is engorged, some
other portion Of the economy must be
under-supplied. By a wise provision
of Nature the surplus is drawn from
the tissue that is least active-in this
case from the muscular system. The
indication is to relieve the congested
brain, and this is best met by muscular
exercise, as a tissue in action has its
blood supply largely increased. The
muscular system is of considerable ex-
tent, and the exercise that brings the
most muscle into action is the most ben
eiicial.-Dr. P. j. Higgins, IN Popular
Science Monthly.

Waterways Across South America.

The discovery of the Bariloche pass,
affording easy communication between
Chill and the Argentine Republic, has
awakened the enthusiasm of geograph-
ers and railroad and canal builders.
The country on both sides Of the Cor
dillera is rich and fertile, and the vast
plains of Patagonia promise to be rap
idly opened up through this discovery.
The explorer, Captain Rhode, who made
the journey, accompanied by MIR. An
drews, an English tourist, has published
an interesting description of the coun-
try through which he passed, and which
he is about to revisit as chief of thor
oughly equipped expedition which the
Argentine government is about to send
out. This pass was first discovered by
the Jesuits at the commencement of the
last century, but five years afterward
their missions were swept away, and
the region remained unvisited by civ
ilized man until Captain Rhode and his
companion went there. Projects for a
transcontinental railroad, which would
be much shorter than that now build
ing by way of Mendoza, have already
been brought forward in the Argentine
republic, and discussed with favor in
Chill, while Captain Rhode revives and
sust&ins with great enthusiasm the ideal
project of the old Jesuit Falkener, who
wished to see water communication be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific through
Patagonia. 1t is claimed that by fol
lowing the Rio Negro up to Lake Ma
huel Huapi, three-fourths of the route
can be travelled by boats at present, and
that by joining Manuel Huapi and TO
dos los Santos lakes, and using the
waters of the rivers Petrohue, Puella,
and Frias, good channel may be
made, terminating in the Reloncavi
Blight, in the Chilon Archipelago. The
advocates of this plan claim that only
two or three short canals would be re-
quired to establish water commune a.
ton across the continent and by tribu-
tary streams with many thousand of
square miles of valuable agricultural
and grazing lands. -Panamd Star

She steered you clear of breakers and
quicksands until you had learned to

many have wrought the work with
prayer and hope for your noble youth
and manhood.
What return are YOU making her for
all this? Do you ever wound her sensi-

short answers, seeking bad company, or
any of the countless ways in which YOU

Switzerland in Russian Asia.

the entire length of the Than Shan
is about 1000 miles, and its highest
peaks everywhere exceed the limit of
perpetual snow. Members of the Alpine
Club, who are beginning to think that
Switzerland is nearly played out, will
perhaps be interested to know that
this mountain mass in Central Asia is
estimated as being twenty-five times
larger than the Swiss Alps, covering
an area that is as large as France
and Spain, and forming protuberance
upon the earth's surface considerably
larger than the aggregate of all the
mountains of Europe. 1t has plenty of
peaks from 5000 feet to $4,000 feet
high, and one of them, of which / was
said to have been within sight,
exceeds 21,000 feet. These Alpine
mountaineers may be further interested
to know that the glaciers of the Than
Shan are computed at not less than
S,000 that there are numerous snow
bridges, some of them mile and one
third in length and 100 feet in thick
ness, and, finally, that any one wishing
to make a little summer tour from vi
erny to Kashgar, the distance merely
from London to Durham, will be under
the pleasant necessity in so doing of
crossing not one, but eight parallel
ridges, most of them rising to the limit
of snow.--LOndoB Times.

LITTLE MISCHIEF.

Little Mischief keeps the household
In instant hub-bub-boo.
If she's quiet, then tbs certain,
she is deep in mischief, too.
All about the house she travels,
Restless, busy little elf.
If she spies some hidden treasure,
Teaches up and helps herself.
There's no use to reprimand her;
She looks up in blank surprise,
With her baby lips a-tremble
And reproachful, teardimmed eyes.
Mamma thinks herself q heather,
Such baby-girl to scold.
Why, of course, she knows no better
Mischief isn't two years old.
