The best possible cure for pneumonia

Not long ago Mr.. Gladstone attri-
buted his sound health to he'great
gift of sleep" He declared that he
always got seven hours and some.
times eight. He never took his wor.
rles to bed, but dismissed them
promptly at the hour of retiring
Napoleon could get along very we'll
on three or four hour sleep in the
twenty-four. But he did not reach
an old age. His captivity might
have had something to do with short
ening his life. There have been a few
great workers who have been poor
sleepers. But very few OF these reach
ed extreme old age. Horace Greeley
could drop off to sleep in church
or in railway ear with wonderful
facility. He had the gift of sleep. but
not the gift of Diminishing his worries.
II ever a man was worried out of his
life because Of political events, it was
probably Horace Greeley.
Daniel Webster said on hearing
OF his deleat for Presidential nom
nation, that he should sleep as
soundly as ever But it was well
know that the defeat of his Presi-
dental aspirations embittered his
closing years. He migh5 haye had
the gift OF sleep but he did not have
the gift ofdismissing fruitless worries.
John Bright was n poor sleeper and
admitted that he took his cares and
anXieties to bed.
There is some satisfactory evidence
that the duration of human life is
greater than it was century ago.
DR.. Todd, President of the Georgia
Medical Society, affirms that mort
uary statistics confirm this theory.
Thus, the average of life in France is
now forty-tive years ago. The pres
ent average found in fifty cities and
towns in England he places at fifty.
lie claims that the United States
leads all other countries, with an
average duration of fifty-fve years.
These estimates are extremes. 1t is
probable, however, that the average
duration of human life in this coun-
try is gradually increasing. TEN
perate living prevails to ii greater
extent than ever before. With tenn
perance and moderation, there is
less excitement, consequently more
rest and more sleep. 1t is certain

Some persons are continually i'm
ugining that they have this or that
disease. or that they are likely to tall
victims to one or another of the ills
which flesh is heir to. This is partic-
ularly the case with children of n ner-
vous, sensitive or morbid nature
, The injury done by such imaginary
troubles to growing boy or girl is
by no means insignificant. They de-
range the proper functions of the
body and have n worse, and perhaps
more lastlrg effect, upon the mind,
turning it from the healthy channels
in which it ought to move, and CEN
tering it morbidly upon self. The
person in this condition imagines
that there is some trouble with his
heart or some other organ of the
body, and straightway he begins to
watch and eXaggerate every slight
pain or unusual feeling that may oc-
tur in the region where he supposes
the trouble to be located. Every
muscular twitch in that locality is
regarded as the sure Indication of
disease. Unless such a condition of
affair is broken up, the whole physic-
al and mental growth will be i'm
paired. BY taking n certain amount
of care at the proper time, the
trouble may belargely. ifnot wholly,
avoided. In the first place. children
ought to hear and know almost
nothing of disease. Later in life the
knowledge may be valuable to them,
but when young their proper func-
lions in life is to grow up healthy in
mind and body, and to this end the
child must be cared for and watched
over. A blind knowledge of the dis
eases incident to mankind is to him
only n bugbear, not an assistance,
as it may become when he is old
enough to appreciate cause and eff
feet. 1t is not necessary that young
children should know that they have
such organs lis heart, lungs and kid
neys. They may be taught hygiene
to any extent desired, but anatomy
should wait until later in life. If the
trouble has already begun, the best
thing to do is to lead the thoughts
OF the young person away from him
self by getting him interested in some
outdoor project 1t is surprising
how those imaginary ills disappear
when the mind has something healthy
and interesting upon which to fix its
attention. 1t may be necessary in
some cases to call in physician to
set the sufferers mind at rest, but
in general it is not best to seem to
recognize any reason for worriment.
The mind can be easily turned into Il
proper channel by providing the nee
essary employment for it.
There is suffering enough to be en-
dured in this world without borrow
ing it. A mind joyous and free from
and occupied continually in
healthy directions, has a vast power
in keeping the body free from disease.
Such IL mental condition, Joined to
temperate and careful habits ofliving,
has brought thousands to a green
old age.-American Agriculturist.

What We Know of Collar.

All that we know of color, its causes
and effects, is in connection with the
wave theory of light. Color depends
upon the number of light waves re-
Elected from any object impinging upon
the retina of the eye. In rcd there are
40, 600 waves to the inch, and these will
strike the eye at the rate of 447 millions
of millions of pulsations per second. In
violets there are 81, 600 waves to the inch,
and 600 millions of millions of pusntions
per second. The other colors have wave
lights intermediate between these two.
Color does not, therefore, exist either in
the object nor in the brain nor in the
mind of the observer. 1t is an effect
There can be no appearance of fire on
n desolate island where there is no eye
within seeing distance. The chemical
process called combustion goes on, but
there is no appearance of the flame save
when its waves strike upon the retina of
an eve.

LOngeyity.

DR.. Todd, president OF the Georgiu
State Medical Society, stated in a
recent paper on longevity" that
the death rate in various countries
of the globe bears a ratio very near
ly inverse to the number of qualified
physicians resident in them. Thus
Russia, whose death rate is the high
est in Europe, has amongits teeming
populations only 5,414 regular
physicians, and one surgeon to 100
600 inhabitants. The United States,
having doctor of medicine to every
600 inhabitants, shows the lowest
death rate in the world. The aver
age life expectancy in this country is
fiftyfive years; in England it is fifty
two; in Russia and Chill it is but
twenty-eight years; in Ellobed, in
the Soudan, twenty-three years.
Within fifty years the average in
France has advanced from twenty
eight is 45h years. Since the time of
Elizabeth the life term has increased
from twenty to fifty-two years. DR..
Todd ascribes this progressive change
to advance medical knowledge, bet
ter drainage and diet, greater clean
illness, and to vaccination and the
use of an@sthetics, quinine and the
like. He thinks that quinine alone
has added two years to the average
life of civilized man.

SHREWD DVERTISERS.

Readers of the newspapers of the day
cannot fail to be impressed with the
fact that the modern advertiser is pro-
gressive.
He is compelled to be, else Compel
itors more active in the invention of
new advertising devices, will outstrip
him in public favor.
The value of printers ink iudiciously
and scientifically employed cannot be
overestimated; it is the medium where
by a meritorious discovery is raised
from local fame to a position in the
public esteem. Hence the columns of
the newspapers are daily used by hosts
of advertisers, and in the competition
which is INDUCED in to attain the de-
sired end, the reader is oftentimes
amused.

But the Earring Was Found,

At recent fashionable EVENT.
an evening party in high circles-a
lady lost diamond earring of great
value, which could nowhere be found.
Thereupon gentleman, who had
Just returned from the East, pro-
Iessed his ability to- discover the
missing gem by means of an Indian
drug. Accordingly he asked all the
company to be seated, and. after
leaving the room, be reappeared with
a colored glass bowl containing a
liquid. He then announced that he
should ask all those present to dip
their fingers into the vessel, and de-
rared that should any one have
secreted the jewel for joke the les
ter's hand would be tinged a rich
blood red. After the ordeal was gone
through every ones digits came out
perfectly white. but the earring was
found at the bottom of the BOWL

The French government has Just been
warned that n great archaeological ca
lamity is impending. The department
OF the Bouche du Rhone has hitherto
been one of the chief landing places for
swallows coming from Africa. Wires
connected with electrical batteries were
laid in hundreds along the coast, and ms
the birds, tired with their long flight,
perched on these, they were struck
dead. The bodies were then dressed
and sent on to Paris for ornamental
purposes. This has been going on for
years, but this spring it has been MOTTO
ed that the swallows have not landed
on the low-lving coast. but have gone
further west or east, and they are re-
ported in other parts of Europe to have
come IN larger quantities than formerly.
A plague of gnats and othersSying in
sects would emphasize this warning,
which comes from the Geological So
ciety of France. -Exchange.

Weatherford (Tcx.) Constitution Jnuej.
A reporter of the Constitution having
learned that Mr.. L. NJ Frey had received
the cash (s5, 600 on ticket IS ,S47 which
he held in the Louisiana State Lottery,
and OF which he made mention at the time
OF the drawing, called upon Mr.. Frey for
confirmation OF the report Mr. Frey
eheerfully did So and added that the ticket
was collected by the First National Bank
OF this city for him without exchange. We
have often wondered IL the reports OF the
character OF men who have hitherto drawn
prizes in the Louisiana State Lottery
were as claimed, these prizes always APP
pearing by the newspaper reports to fall
into the hands OF honest, hard working
and deserving men. II they are to he
judged by Mr.. Frey they have all certainly
deserved the prizes, Tor there is no moro
Industrious, enterprisng and deserving a
man in Weatherford than L. NJ. Frey, the
jeweler. Mr.. Frey has only been in Wealth
erford a short time, but by strict atten-
ton to business, honest work and judicious
advertising in The Constitution and other
home papers, he has built up the largest
custom OF any jeweer in the city.

One night in the winter of 1866
says a Washington special to the
Detroit Tribune, Artemus Ward lee.
tured in Lincoln hall, and when the
great humorist was about ha
through his discourse he paralyzed
the audience with the announcement
that they would have to take a re-
ress OF fifteen minutes so as to enable
him to go across the street to ''see q
man" Ii. r. Tracy, then editor of
the Washington Republican. was in
the audience, and seeing an oppor-
tunity TO improve upon the joke pen
rlled the following lines and sent to
the platform:
Dear Artemus: If you will place
yourself under my guidance III take
YOU to see u man without crossing
the street.
Artemus accepted the invitation,
ana while the great audience impa-
tiently, but with much amusement,
awaited the temperance of the hum
orist, the latter was making the ac-
qualntance of Aman and Illustrating
ut well-laden refreshment board.
Of course everybody Caught on to"
the phrase, and men became fond of
getting up between the acts and go
ing out to see Aman" The restau-
rateur's business from this time for
ward doomed. Men who would or
sit quietly through an en-
tcrtainment and behave themselves
allowed themselves to be influenced
