FOundlings In France.

France has thirty thousand found
lings. The abandonment Of so many
children is due to an Ubiquitous statute
in the French code, which is all to the
advantage of the stronger and to the
advantage of the weaker sex. FW the
support or acknowledgment of child
not born in wedlock no man is legally
responsible. The mother alone has to
bear, not only the odium, but also the
financial expenses connected with the
fault she has committed, unless the
father proclaims his paternity'at the
Marie, in which case he is bound to
maintain his offspring. A law to do
away with the injustice has been before
the Chamber of Deputies for the past
two years. but the Legislative machine
works at such slow rate that several
sessions may elapse before it is passed,
although the majority of the Senator'S,
as well as Deputies, are known to be
very much in its favor.

How to Breathe.

One of Philadelphia's leading physi-
clans, specialist in diseases of the
lungs, says that imperfect respiration
is at the bottom of much trouble. In
such case he shows the patient how
to swell out the whole chest full and
round 10y deep inspiration, elevating
and throwing back the shoulders; and
then, when he has gotten into his lungs
the last atom of air possible, to hold it
in tightly for little, and then let it of
slowly, blowing ont every atom of it if
he possibly can by forcible expiration,
drawing the shoulders forward aud
pressing in the chest to the smallest
possible compass, thus throwing out al
most all of the residual air, and all this
through the nose, with mouth tightly
closed. "Let him take a half dozen or
more such forced respirations a dozen
tunes day." says the doctor, "and he
will soon double his vital capacity and
relieve himself of most of his supposed
chest trouble. Such forced respiration
will compel every air cell possible to
freely admit wholesome air into the
little spaces and to expel it also, and
some air cells that do not often per-
form their functions healthily will be
compelled TO do so.

A Beautiful Chemical Experiment.

Do you want to grow salt, and at the
same time have an interesting, hand
some ornament? The proceeding is a
novel chemical experiment that may be
tried by any one. Put in goblet one
tablespoonful OF salt and one spoonful
of bluing. Fill the goblet two-thirds
full of water and set in position where
it will have plenty of warmth and sun
light. In little while sparkling crys-
tails will commence forming on the out
side of the glass, and it is both novel
and interesting sight to watch it gradu-
ally growing day by day, until the out
side of the goblet is entirely covered
with beautiful white crystals.
Another variation of this beautiful
experiment would be to take goblet
with the base broken off and fasten it
to the center of thin piece of beard,
which may be round, square, or oblong.
After the crystals have formed on the
glass, set it on tiny wall-bracket and
place bright holiday or birthday card
in front of it; this will hide the base,
on which no crystals will form. After
this is done I'll the goblet with flowers
or dried grasses, and you will have q
vase which will cost comparatively

The Opium Curse.

New York Mail and Express: The
statistics as to the use of opium pre-
sented by DIR. +. n. Hammond, of Au-
burn. are almost startling. 1t 1910
about 10000 pounds OF opium were
consumed in the United States; in 1850,
532, 450 pounds. In 1868 there were
about 80, 900 habitual opium eaters in
the country; now they number over
500, coo. If the number of
opium eaters is TO be doubled
every six or seven years, the opium
habit will soon become almost as uni
versal as the whisky habit. and far more
baneful in its effects. More women
than men are addicted to the use of
opium. DIR. Hammond places the pro-
portion at three to one. The vice is
one SO easily contracted, so easily
practiced in private, and so difficult OF
detection, that it presents peculiar
temptations. There is little danger of
an educated, refined lady becoming q
drunkard; but there is, perhaps, all the
more danger of her becoming an habit
ual user of opium or choral from her
very refinement of nerve and brain.

Ancient Normandy occupied the
northwest. part of France, bounded
north and west by the waters of the
English Channel. 1t received the name
Normandy in the tenth century from
the Mortimer who had occupied the
country. Charles the Simple, King Of
France, in 912 sanctioned their con-
quest of the province, and gave their
chief, Rollo, the title of Duke of Nor
mandy. The new duchy soon came to
be one of the most prosperous prov
inces of France. II was O level, fertile
country, producing grain, hax, and
fruit In abundance, and an excellent
breed of horses, and with number of
bays and rivers Astounding In fish.
These characteristics it still possesses,
and it is to-day as it was 800 years ago,
one of the garden spots of France.
The beautiful garden was often laid
waste, however, by the struggles of
rival countries to possess it. The son
of Robert the Devil, the sixth successor
from the first Duke Rollo, became in
1866 the conqueror and first Norman
King of England. On his death, En-
gland and Normandy we're separated,
Williams eldest son, Robert, taking the
latter country, and his second son,
William Rufus, the former. Henry l.,
the next King of England, ruled over
both countries, but his daughter Matil-
da was only Duchess of Normandy.
Henry III. united the two again, and
the union lasted till the time of King
John, who was forced to forfeit Nor

ly rescued the province, and from his
time it has been an integral part of
France. The title of Duke OF Nor
mandy has since then been occasionally
used, but the province was divided in
1870 into five departments, and is now
separately known only by the names Of
these departments Inter Ocean.

AhOut Walking.

Every healthy person, man or woman,
should be a good walker, able at any
time to walk six to twelve miles day
at least, and double that when gradu-
ally brought up to it. The points to
be attended to are TO see that the walk
be brisk and vigorous, not of n loiter-
ing or dangling kind that there be
some object in the walk besides it being
a routine constitutional q. e. not like
the staid promenade of the orthodox
ladies' school, and, if possible, in
pleasant company; that there be no
tight clothing, whether for the feet or
the body, which will constrain or i'm
pede the natural movements of the
limbs and trunk; and that the walk be
taken as far as possible in the fresh
country air. In regard TO the later
particular, although towns are increas-
ing so rapidly as to make it almost n
journey to get out of them on foot, still
we have so many suburban tramways
and railway lines that in a few minutes
we can find ourselves in the country,
where the air is fresh and pure. When
ever an opportunity presents itself for
a little climbing in the course of walk,
it should be taken advantage of. We
gain variety of muscular action, as well
as increase the exertion, and we get into
regions of purer air and fresher breeze
at the same time.
What may be considered as the weak
point in walking as mode of exercise
is the comparatively small play hich
it gives TO the muscles of the shoulders
and chest, while it is still less for those
of the arm. This should be compen-
stated for by the use of light dumb bells
or Indian clubs, or some other form of
exercise which brings in play the arms
and shoulders. One of the forms OF
exercise which requires the action OF
the muscles of the arms and shoulders,
as well as those of the trunk and legs,
is swimming. This, however, for many
reasons, cannot be used "a means OF
exercise except by few, and at certain
seasons of the year, but where possible
it should always be practiced. The
great pity is that boys and girls do not
learn it, as rule, while at school.
Every large town should be we'll pro-
vided with swimming baths, and if il
could be made compulsory for scholars
TT a certain age, say II, to learn 10
swim, it would be great advantage to
all, and also be the means of saving
many lives.-Herdld of Health.

The Skull OF WirZ.

Washington Cd. c. letter to Phila-

game. One of the players had just
captured large Jackpot, when a
proposition for refreshments took five
hungry men away from their pleasant
occupation for few moments. Lunch
finished, four of the players seated
themselves. The absent man for the
moment was an eminent physician, at
whose house the pastime was going on.
When the doctor returned to his place
ut the table he bore in his hand a skull.
Why he should interrupt the festivities
with this CHASTITY reminder of every
mans end puzzled all of the gentlemen
present. The surgeon answered the
curious look ofinquiry upon each mans
face by saying:
