Better, perhaps, thar any of the single
teEpcraments would be a mixture of the
sanguine and the bilious; and. indeed, all
the examples of special life storage which
l have net with have been of this heredi
tary admixture.
The organism which is best constituted
for life storage is, therefore, capable of
being identified, and stands out, so to
speak, in its own colors. The color of the
iris, or curtain of the eyeball, always an
excellent test, is a light hazel; the hair
is dark brown; the color of the skin is in.
Clined to be ford. and the lips and eye.
lids are of good natural red-never pale,
as in the pure nervous temperament, and
never of dark blush tint, as in the lynn
pl@tic or Emphatic bilious. In this
mixed temperament of the sanguine and
bilious, a preponderance of the sanguipe
is, | believe, always an advantage.
h qualities here enumerated, as repre-.
sented in IN organism well fitted for the
storage of life. are absolutely of heredi
tary character. They spring from com
binations of parentage. and when the
combinations are unalloyed by the intro
duction of any disturbing elements of
disease, the conditions for long storage
are fortunately combined.-Dr. Benjamin
Ward Richardson.

Abou, canned Goods r-oisoning.,


Yet. with all the advantages of canned
goods. some people abstain fromtheir use.
because they think they are unwholesome.
This idea has arisen from the fact, that
among tho hundreds of millions of tins
annually consumed. there is now and then
one imperfectly sealed. thus admitting
the air and spelling b contents. These
are easily detected. from the fact that they
generally have ''swelled" or pulled up
ends. and, after opening, by the exercise
of common sense in the use of the organs
of taste and smell. No one thinks of eat.
ing n derayed potato, or spoiled eggs. fish
or meats, but some consumers seem to
think that because a thing lis put up in
tin, il must be good under all circum.
stances, prepare it for the table and eat it
without the slightest discrimination This
sometimes results in more or less severe
attacks of cholera morbus, which. in these
days of ~sensational press dispatches, are us
ually announced as n goods poison
ing" Before the invention of canned goods.
cholera morbus was as common as it is
now, but it was called cholera morbus.
and not canned goods poisoning
II is beginning TO be understood by tho
medical profession and the public that
this tpye of liness is largely the result of
the decomposition of organic matter.
which, in its earlier stages, develops a.
form of aikalOid poison, technically known
as ptomaines; but such cases are more
common with spoiled meat, fish, milk,
cheese and ice cream than from canned
goods, and it is safe to say that, consider
ing the enormous amount,of canned goods
used, they are more wholesome than any
similar moun of food not canned

Stood by His Flag.

A dozen rough, but brave, soldiers
camp. What on earth is that ?" sud-
denly exclaimed the ringleader, stop
ping in the midst of the game to listen.
In moment the whole squad were
listening to low, solemn voice which
came from tent occupied by several
recruits who had arrived in camp that
day, The ringleader approached the
tent on tip-toe. Boys, he's praying
or I'm a sinner" he roared out.
"Three cheers for the parson!" shouted
another man of the group, as the
prayer ended " You watch things for
three weeks! I'll show you how to take
the religion out of him'' said the first
speaker, laughing. He was a large
man, the ringleader in mischief. The
recruit was a slight, pale-faced young
fellow of about eighteen years of age.
During the next three weeks he was
the butt of the camp. Then several of
the boys, conquered by the lads gentle
patience and uniform kindness to his
prosecutors, begged the others to stop
annoying him. go, the little ranter is
no better than the rest of u.s." answered
the big ringleader. "He's only making
believe pious. When we get under fire
you'll see him run. These pious folks
don't like the smell of gun-powder.
I've no faith in their religion!" In a
few weeks the regiment broke camp,
marched towards Richmond, entered
the Wilderness and engaged in that ter
rible battle. The company to which
the young recruit belonged had des-
perate struggle. The brigade was
driven back, and when the line was re-
formed behind the breast-works they
had built in the morning he was miss
ing. When last seen he was almost
surrounded by enemies, but fighting
desperately. AT his side stood the
brave fellow who had made the poor
lad constant object of ridicule. Both
were given up as lost. Suddenly the
big man was seen tramping through
the underbrush, bearing the dead body
of the recruit. Reverently he laid the
corpse down, saying, as he wiped the
blood from his own face: Boys, l
couldn't leave him with the rebs-he
fought so. | thought he deserved a
decent burial" During a lull in the
battle the men dug a shallow grave and
ldlu lut ItIldIuS lHtIclil.
Then, as one was cutting the name and
regiment upon board, the big man
said, with husky voice: " guess you'd
better put the words Christian Soldier
in somewhere. He deserves the title,
and may be it'll console him for our
abuse There was not a dry eye
among those rough men as they stuck
the rudely-carved board at the head of
the grave and again and again looked
at the inscription. Well" said one,
she was Christian soldier if there
ever was one! And" turning to the
ringleader, she didn't run, did he,
when he smelt gun-powder?" "Run!"
answered the big man, his voice tender
with emotion, why, he didn't bulge
an inch! But what's that to standing
for weeks our fire like man and never
sending a work back? He Just stood
by his flag and let us pepper him-he
did" When the regiment marched
away that rude head-board remained
to tell what power lies in Christian
Youths Companion.

When Shall l See the Sun :


oh, clouds that drift in sorrow
Across the fair blue sky,
Pray tell me IL, tomorrow,
The sun will shine on high?
Or is it thus they perished
The joys so dearly won,
The dream so fondly cherished
When shall see the sun?
My heart desponds in sadness,
None guess what bitter woe
Tortures my soul to madness,
No matter where go.
No bird of hope is singing
Its song of work well done,
But requiem bells are ringing
When shall see the SUM-
The stars may set in splendor,
In splendor rise again,
New flowers spring newly tender
Beneath the summer rain;
But man, misfortune's plaything,
Once down, life's favors shun,
Long may he watch the dayspring
And never see the sun.
I've lost the flowers gathered
In valleys green and gay,
Unwatered, dry and withered,
They work my lonely way;
No stone, though I'm so weary,
To lay my head upon,
And night folds dark and dreary-
When shall see the sun?
