 Husband (with enthusiasm -- "Good Anything that teaches or even advises a woman to avoid the uso of words Is pointing toward tho ideal civilization. But supposing you want money, for instance, how can you make your wants known without tho employment of soft and honeyeti words2"

Pleasure and Pain.

Thus no one can define life or death. and
pleasure and pain are equally incapable Of
definition, or even Of accurate description.
We think We know wha. 1t is to live and feel
pleasure or pain. but when we attemp, to ex-
press cur thoughts by words we discover that
the feat is impracicable The answer 20 the
question What is painT must therefore be,
NO one knows" This IS how far we have
proceeded in the ques; for defnitive answer
Pain is a sensation which more Or less rapidly
and acutely assails the faculty CT endurance.
In its conulonest forms it IS suffering pre-
duced by nerve excitation, the elements Of
the nervous apparatus being either directly
or By transmitted irritation mechanically
disturbed For example, compressed, as in
squeezing or bursting pain; CT stretched, &,
when the pain E aching or tearing; bruised
or laeerated, as when the pain Is due to Gu:
or wound OF soms sort Il Is not Of course
alvsvs the facs that these mechanical Injuries
70 nervous tissue take place IS the point 70
which pain is referred, because being ssnsa-
tloU, pain IS feIs a. sor2e seat Of seasa-
ton that is in connection with the ssnsory ap-
paratus affected, although i. may be remote
from tue point whsre the impression is pro-
duced In short, pain may ne message Of
suffering sent from some injured part through
q cGain OF nerve elements as a message Of
word symbols Is transmitted by teleSrspkic
wire.-Londor Lancet

FROM A TWO YEARS SENTENCE.

Back from two years sentenced
And though it had been ten,
You think, I were SCARED no deeper
In the eyes Of my fellow men
''My fellow menE''-sounds like satire,
You think-and l so allow,
Here, in my home since childhood
Yet more than stranger now!
Pardon Nor wholly stranger,
For have wife and child
That woman has wept for two long years,
And yet last night she smiled!
Smiled, as leapt from the platform
OF the midnight train. ard then
All that knew was that smile Of hers,
And our babe in my arms again.
back from two years sentence
But have thought the whole thing through
a hint Of it came when the bars swung back
And / looked straight UP in the bite
OF the blessed skies with my hat of,
Ohio. I've a wife and child;
That woman has wept for two long years.
And yet last night she smiled,
