A st. Paul Romance.
"Dare / trust you?"

DaiO tiuot you'
The speaker was Il young woman,
whose somber dress and Grape trim
mings proclaimed the fact that she was
either widow or recent mourner
over some near and dear relative. AS
she stood in the mellow light of the dim
ly illuminated drawing-room her beauty
of face and figure was most striking.
Dainty did she appear as she toyed with
her gloves, which had just been re-
moved. and again with the Grape strings
to her bonnet folding and smoothing
out the creases as she sought to make
up her mind.
Before her stood young man. He
was going away. A travelling bag was
suspended from his shoulder. He had
his hat in his hand and moved it around
rs the conversation progressed. He
looked not at tho pretty mourner but
directed his gaze to the carpet and,
with his umbrella, was busily engaged
in tracing out the patterns and designs
thereof.
He said not word in reply to her
query, which forms the opening sentence
of this brief little romance in real life.
Neither did he move toward the party
propounding the question. Dignified
and apart he stood, determined, appar-
emily, not to commit himself too easily.
Scan trust you?" she repeated, as if
talking to herself.
$50 you doubt my" he asked.
"Not in the least" she said.
"Why do you ask this?" he contin-
ued.
Because" replied she, "since have

Breathing Through the Mouth.

Tight dressing, though the most Sc
rious hindrance to the habit of good
breathing, is not the only obstacle.
There are careless ways of sitting and
standing that draw the shoulders for
ward and cramp the chest; and it is as
hard for the lungs to do good work
when the chest is narrow and construct
cd rs it is for n closely bandaged hand
to set copy of clear, graceful penman-
ship. Then there arc lazy ways of
breathing, and onesided ways of breath
ing, and the particularly bad habit of
breathing through the mouth. Now
the nose was meant to breathe through,
and it is marvelously arranged for filter
ing the impurities out of the air, and
for changing it to q suitable tempora-
ture for entering the lungs. The mouth
has no such apparatus, and when air is
swallowed through the mouth instead
of breathed through the nose, it has an
injurious effect upon the lungs. Astory
is told of an Indian who had personal
encounter with white man much his
superior in size and strength, and who
was asked afterward if he was not
afraid. "Me never afraid of man who
keeps mouth open," was the immediate
reply. Indeed, breathing through the
mouth gives foolish and weak express
sion 10 the face, rs you may see by
watching any one sleep with the mouth
open.
1t may be noted that an an@mic, or
low, condition of the blood Is seldom
found where there is an established
habit of full, deep breathing with the
mouth closed. HELEN Clark Saoazey, ia

a Jelly Fish's Sting.

Capt. l.. II. Kennerly states that sew
cral gentlemen friends invited him to go
in bathing in the bath-house at How
ards, but there were so many sea net
ties of all kinds in the water that he
said he would not risk it. They went
into the water, however, and had q
pleasant time, and begged him to join
them. They wore trunks, which no
doubtprotected them from tho jelly fish.
At length he was persuaded, and SO
entered the water. Hardly had he done
so when something like wet rag wrap
ped itself around his right leg just above
the ankle, and u singing sensation was
felt. Capt. Kennerly began kicking.
and the jelly fish wrapped itself spirally
around the leg, getting tighter and
tighter, but moving so that it slid off or
was shaken of, us one might wrap a
handkerchief twice around the forearm,
and then, pulling at the loose end, pull
the handkerchief of.
AS soon rs freed from the sea-nettle,
the sufferer left the water and returned
to his room. The pain was similar to n
snake bite, and very soon the part which
had been covered by the fish became
purple and so remained for several
days. The skin was deadencd by the
poison and the epidcrmis peeled of.
From the center of this inflammation
the virus spread rapidly in the glands
of the leg and body, and passed up into
the neck, SO that the suffering was gen.
eral; even the left leg was inhamed
through sympathy. The captain was
kept in bed several days and during
the greater part of the time was in a
condition to l,c pitied.
He says that he never heard of any
one being so badly hurt by such an ami
NAL or fish before, though he has been
told by an old sea captain that in tropi-
cal countries sea nettles are very poi
sonous, SO much so that persons stung
by them are sometimes confined to their
beds for six months at q time.-Mobils

Increase Among the Indians.

A Minneapolis gentleman, who has
lived much among the northwestern
Indians, advances the theory that they
nave been steadily increasing instead OF
diminishing in numbers, notwithstani-
ing the occasional mortality caused by
smallpox and other diseases. He main.
tains that when the whites first settled
on the American continent the Indians
occupied narrow strips of territory
along the eastern and southern rivers,
and gradually followed the buffalo in
land. In the days of Daniel Boone the
state of Kentucky was traversed by
myriads of buffaloes, but no sign of an
Indian village has been found, all the
tribes uniting in its preservation as O
great pasture for the native herds. He
regards this fact us evidence that the
comparatively few Indians occupying
the Atlantic coast have gradually moved
west with the buffalo and multiplied rs
they travelled. The first government
report mentions 10000 Indians, while
the last total number reported was 230,
