Care. worriment and unrest.

Look around you in the cars. in the theatres, in the churches, on the streets, how many. many men and women do you see the lines on whose faces betray worri- ment and unrest? A man Is worried be- cause he cant make more money; wom- ans heart is eaten up with envy because her next door neighbor dresses better than she is able to do; the inner nature of the the dude is stirred to its foundations be- cause the new mustache forcer fails to show signs that it is doing it's promised work; the young woman's heart Is burning up with jealousy at the success of her rival, and so on through all classes of peo- pie in every grade of society.
 Now, care and worriment are deadly enemies to long life and happiness No man can hope to live long, or to be even moderately happy. unless he makes up his mind to give scant welcome to these per sistent visitors He must learn to accept situations which he cannot avoid. He can do it. Let him make up his mind in early manhood to cultivate good nature. to be- lieve in the idea that whoever does his duty will find that ''There Is divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will.

Mysterious Origin of Fires.

Not long ago lot of Sea Island cotton in bales was discovered to be on fire in a New Jersey warehouse, and when the flames were eXtinguished in one spot. they would immediately break out in another. An examination showed that it was roller gin cotton; that is, cotton of which the lint is drawn away from the seeds by pair of rollers, set at such distance apart as to keep the seeds from en- tering between them, while the fibre passes on and goes into bag. In the present case, more or less of the seeds had some how got between the rollers and been crushed, and had thus saturated the cot ton with oil, which, in due time, had caused spontaneous combustion.
 A still more curious case occurred in a Massachusetts factory In the middle Of the room milling machine was turning knife handles, the dust being blown up through a metal tube into the room above and thence forced out of doors through a wooden pipe. A spark from an emery wheel, fifteen feet from the milling ma chine, struck window, and rebounding entered the mouth of the metal tube, set the wood dust on fire, so that the flames poured out of the wooden pipe Ill stream twenty feet long.
 An engineer, cleaning up mill, put some cotton waste in front of the boiler, where it would be handy for the fireman in the morning. During the night this took fire spontaneously the flames spread to the kindlings under the boiler, and soon raised steam enough to cause the boiler to blow off, badly soaring the watchman, who knew, or thought he knew, that there was no fire under it.
 In another instance man drove a nail into the ceiling of jute mill. The nail glanced off, was str'H:1 by the rapidly moving beaters and cd-lseI a serious con- lagration.-Yo outh s Companion.

CecrgIan and Circassian.

The Georgian has beauty quito differ ent from that of the Circassian. The Cir cassian is dazzling, queen like and stately. She has a fair skin She is elegant in form. She is kindly and gentle in voice. but lazy in movement and without spirit. One of her own sex has said "There is no soul in a Circassian beauty; and as she pillows her pure, pale cheek upon her small dimpled hand, you feel no inclina- tion to arouse her into excrtion; you are contented to look upon her and to con- template her loveliness." The Georgian Is creature with eyes like meteors and teeth almost as dazzling as her eyes. Her mouth does not wear the sweet and un- ceasing smile of her less vivacious rival. But the proud expression that sits upon finely arched lips accords so well with her stately form and lofty brow that you do not seek to change its character. Home Journal.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
About Babies - Remedies for Several
 Everyday Ailments.

Not unfrequently mothers complain that their children are naturally peevish and troublesome, "always fretty," as many say, sleeping but little and crying much. They assume that the irritable quality is inborn and an essential part of the baby's compost tion, and more often do they fail to recog- nize it as an evidence of disease. The Jour nal of Health calls attention to this, and adds, along with various helpful suggestions to mothers, the following:
 A troublesome, crying child cannot be healthy, and mothers should be assured of this fact and endeavor to determine the csasc; if they fdil Lo discover and remove it, then it is clearly their duty to seek the ad- vice of physician.
 If a woman is naturally fretful and irri- table, and possesses an uncomfortable tenl- per, the artificial means of feeding is the best for her child. The same may be said if these faults do not exist, but her homes surround ings are unhappy, and she is likely to suffer from grief and despondency, has drunken husband, or some other like misfortune weighing upon her If the mother is poor in health, both herself and her child will suffer if she attempts to nurse it. The question of inheritance must be considered. Any dis ease like consumption, scrofula, etc, existing in her family, and to which she shows ten dency, should debar her from nourishing her offspring.
 An absurd habit, by no means uncommon among mothers, is the so-called ''trotting on the knee" This abominable ''churning pro cess" is unfortunately an inheritance trans mitted with many other antiquated customs, and is a potent cause of indigestion and kin 1 dred ailments When the baby must be held to quiet it, if you hold it in one position and keep quiet yourself, it will be more quickly | pacified
 Rare roast beef, steak and other kinds of meat are often given children by their mothers early ill the second year, a common custom being to cut the same into long narrow pieces, frSm which they are allowed to suck the juice. There is nothing particu- larly objectionable to this; still, it ought not to be indulged in too early. As rule, after child is Is months old will be time enough to give it meat ill this form.

Sufficiently Identified.

A friend of mine was recently rusticating in neighboring town with his little four year-old boy. The child spent nearly all of his time with the town telegraph operator, the attraction there to the child being a large Newfoundland dog. The operator left the boy in charge of the office one day, while ho attended to some urgent business, and to amuse the little fellow placed in his hands large brass instrument, the property of tke town band. During the operators absence the boy made such a rumpus with the musi- cul instrument that the bandmaster rushed in, and in towering tones demanded of the little innocent:
 "Wbo gave you that!'
 The bright boy, not knowing the operators name, replied;
 "The dogs papa gave it to me. "-San Fran cisco Post

India,s Man Eating Tigers.

One set of cages was very attractive to us They contained ten huge tigers, all caught in pits after proving themselves man eaters. Huge brutes which would spring at us as we passed with such ferocity that they would hurt themselves against the iron bars. The tigers of our menageries are puppets compared to these fierce monsters. A few annas to the keeper obtained for me the privilege of doing little practice. Looking fierce fellow steadily in the eye. and speaking in a stern but steady voice, tapped him sharply over the head with my rattan cane. He blinked his eyes. followed up the action with a sharper stroke and made him quiet down. tried another, and actually made him lie down on his side and purr like a great cat. did not fail once The native looked at me admiNngly and evidently thought l was accustomed to managing man eaters.
