The Habit of Dining Late.

Probably much of the improved phys.
ique which is so generally recognized
among Americans is due 10 the increased
habit Of dining late. For men of the
above classes an early dinner means
hurried dinner. while a late one is a
leisurely one. I know men in good cir
cumstances who for years took what was
regarded as regular meal down town"
at l O'Clock or so, and never allowed
more than fifteen minutes for it; and
those same men now dine at home, after
the days work is over. and give an hour
or more to the process.
OF course. this assumed difference may
be pressed too far, and remember being
checked in this argument by that most
dignified Of women, the late Mrs. George
Ticknor, of Boston. She heard ms
through, but said calmly: Il do not agree
with you that the hour of the day has
anything to do with it. i kept house
for a great many years, and had many
dinner parties at o'clock. There never
was any undue haste at my table," I
should think not. indeed! But Mrs. Tick
nor was the last Of her generation--the
more's the pity-snd the lady of the
house to-day needs all the quieting asso-

City Cats Hungry for Catnip.

A thin, prim, little elderly woman.
with her arms full of white and yellow
daisies, and big bundle Of green leaves
dangling by string from her wrist, went
down a quiet street ahead of me one
evening. The dust of country roads was
on her skirt and she walked YEARLY.
She was followed by dozen cats, at
least, tramp and vagabond felines that
trotted along with waving tails, shifting
at the bundle of leaves. one of the bold
est even trying to reach them with its
teeth. The little woman finally halted
and cast a couple of handfuls of the
leaves to her followers. Immediately
they began % devour them, to play with
them or roll over them, while she
went on.
Its catnip," she explained to me, who
had stopped to watch the performance.
Il always bring some home for my cats
when i go to the country, and the poor
things smell it as pass by. They'd fol-
low me all the way home if didn't give
them some. Look at that old black tom.
He won't leave me till l go into the
house.
He was following her when she passed
from my sight.-Alfred Trumble in New

sensntion. of Vision.

Sensations of vision require definite
time of exposure Of the retina, which
time Mr.. J. N. Cattell Of the university
of Leipsic finds to be considerably de-
pendent on the nature of the object and
the intensity of the light. 1t varies
with the several colors. Orange gives
the quickest impression of the eye and
yellow closely follows it; then comes
blue, red, and green; while the retina
is least sensitive TO violet light time,
which is from two to three times as
long as for orange. By lamplight the
eye works more slowly than by daylight,
and the order of perceiving colors is
changed to orange. red, yellow, violent,
and blue.-Chicago News.

The Annauity Of las.s.xs.

At the recent festive gathering Of the
club called "Odd Volumes" one of the
members gave curious account of mas
sage as mode Of treatment. II is GER
tainly very popular at the present mo-
ment. and people want to hear some
thing clear and definite about it. The
gentleman assured his listeners that
there was reason to think that massage
had been known to the Chinese from
time immemorial, and it was stated that
the process was fully described in MSS.
called Kong Fou," the date of which
was 5000 B. C. The word itself was de-
rived, according to some authorities,
from the Greek "massein," to rub; while
others referred it to the Arabic word
@mass," to press softly. In primitive
form it was known both to. the Greeks
and the Romans, who resorted TO ii after
q bath, a custom which prevails among
the Orientals to the present day. After
the struggles of the circus it was EN-.
ployed to dissipate the resulting contu-
sions and extravasations, and to restore
pliability TO the bruised and stiffened
joints.
Among the Sandwich islanders it is
frequently practiced under the name Of
~lomi-lomi," and the process was fully
described in the works of Emerson and
Nordhoff This, however, was a crude
and primitive form, having very little in
common with the elaborate scientific sys
tenn now resorted to in this country.
There was reason to think that the true
massage was used in France in the early
part of this century, an opinion that was
to some extent confirmed by the fact
that all the terms employed to designate
the various branches of the art were
French in origin. The literature of mas
cage was now very extensive, and dur
ing the last ten years over 100 works had
appeared on the subject. Jour-

Physical Care of n singer.

The celebrated French baritone Faure
has just published book combining the
results Of his long experience, entitled
THE Voice and Singing" 1t is intended
for the use of aspiring tenors and BARI
tones Not only is much instruction
given in the science of music, pure and
simple, but many practical hints of great
value are added. Thus on the day of
performance the artist should avoid long
railway journeys, the motion of the train
being held to be injurious to the voice.
He must also live as near to the theatre
- possible, so as to reduce to a minimum
THE dangers of locomotion" and the
risk of taking sudden colds.
He must eat regularly, watch the man.
ner in which his digestive organs per
form their functions, avoid indigestion,
strong emotions and draughts of air.
He must not wear any article of raiment
tightly bound around his neck, feet or
TO the head, and must not allow flowers
either at home or in his dressing room
at the theatre. NJ. Faure, says a critic,
in commenting on these minute instruc-
tons is not only a professor-he is a
mother, and should wrap his precious
pupils in cotton. Few, however, are
aware what a world of pains must be
taken by the aspirant for lyric honors
who would stand even the slightest
chance Of success. Art is a jealous mis-
tress and brooks no rivals near her
throne.-New York Graphic.

Interesting Facts About siIkworma.


Mr.. Dean tells some interesting facts
about his silkworms. He says that one
ounce of eggs will produce 40, 900 worms.
One hundred worms when first Matched
will weigh one grain. When they have
been properly fed for from twenty-eight
to thirty-one days and are ready for spin
ming their cocoons, these same 100 worms
will weigh $500 grains. That rapid &C.
cession of weight is, of course, surpris
ing but, then, everything about the silk
worm is more or less surprising when he
Is carefully studied. His very power OF
spinning out of himself filament from
ESQ yards in length if he has been starved
to as much as a mile and half, or per
haps two miles if he is in extra good con.
dition, and the industry with which he
patiently revolves his head around him
300, 900 or more times in forming that
filament into cocoon may well be Won
dered at. During the fifth stage of
growth, say in the last seven or eight
days before commencing to spin, the
worms are ravenously hungry. They eat
day and night if they have anything TO
eat II starved for few hours at that
time and then supplied with fresh leaves
they are very liable 70 eat so greedily as
to burst themselves, and the silk material
that is in them in fluid form runs out
in color exactly like the silk filament-

THE HUMAN soDTs WEIGHT.


Pounds Avolrdupois ss Birth-rhs Fss
aud the Lsan-Curious facts
The weight of the male infant at birth
in pounds avoirdupois; that OF the fe-
male is not quite l-2 pounds. The
maximum weight GAO l-2 pounds) Of the
male is attained at the age of 40: that Of
the female NEARLY 124 pounds) is not at
tanned until 80; from which ages they
decline afterward; the male TO 1877 1-2
pounds, nearly stone. The full-grown
adult is twenty times as heavy as new
born infant. In the first year he triples
his weight, afterward the growth pro-
ceeds in geometrical progression, so that
if fifty infants in their first year weigh
1000 pounds. they will in the second
weigh 1910 pounds, in the third 1880
pounds. in the fourth 1,464 pounds,
remaining very constant up to the
ages of 11-l2 in females, and 1918 in
males, where it must be nearly doubled;
afterward it may be continued, and will
be very nearly correct up to the ages OF
IS or 10, when the growth proceeds very
slowly.
At an equality of age the male is gen.
orally heavier than the female. Towards
the age of IL years only an individual Of
each sex has the same weight. The male
attains the maximum weight about the
age of 40, and he begins to lose it very
sensibly towards 90. At 80 he loses about
IS. 1898 pounds; and the stature is dimin-
ished 2.756 inches. Females attain their
maximum weight about so. The mean
weight of mature man is 104 pounds,
and of an average woman "a pounds. In
old age they lose about 10 or IA pounds.
Men weigh most at 40. women at SO. and
begin to lose at go. The mean weight Of
both sexes in old age is that which they
had at 10.
When the male and female have as
sumed their complete development, they
weigh almost exactly twenty times as
much as at birth, while the stature is
about 1-2 times greater,
Children lose weight during the first
three days after birth; at the age of s
week they sensibly increase; after one
year they triple their weight; then they
require six years to double their weight,
and thirteen to quadruple 1t.
About the age of SO the lean mar
usually becomes fat, and the fat mar
becomes leaner. Again between the
years of 43 and 80 his appetite fails, hi.
complexion fades, and his tongue is APT
to become furred upon the least exertion
of body and mind. At his period his
muscles become habby, his joints weak
his spirits droop. and his sleep is imper.
feet and undressing. After suffering
under these complaints year, or per
haps two, he starts afresh with re-
newed vigor, and goes on to 81 or 90,
when a similar change takes place, but
with aggravated symptoms. When these
grand periods have been successfully
passed the gravity of incumbent years il
more strongly marked.-Houghtalingt

FillipinR the Toad.

Filliping the toad was formerly COM
mon and cruel diversion for boys in Eng
land. They placed board, two or three
feet long. at right angles over a trans
verse piece two or three inches thick,
and then after placing the toad at one
end of the board, the other end was
struck by a bat or large stick, which
threw the poor toad forty or fifty feet
perpendicularly from the earth, and the
fall generally killed it.-Boston Budget.
