Good Fare for Night workers.

Continued attention to the requirements
of their needs indicates that the following
scheme of living is calculated to meet the
situation: As much sleep should be Sc
cured as is possible, especially before the
daytime world becomes active.
Upon rising, which generally is between
noon and midafternoon, hearty breakfast
should be eaten, and the interval between
that and dinner occupied out of doors.
The dinner should be eaten before begin.
ming work between and o'clock; and il
work lasts until dawn a light but nutri
tious repast should fortify the system fol
the strain of work between midnight and
morning the most trying hours for labor
of the entire twenty-four, because the vital
powers are at their lowest ebb. When all
work is done, just before retiring, the sys-
tenn should be recruited and prepared for
sleep by some simple food like hot broth Oh
milk, beef tea, or glass of good wine and
biscuit. This will frequently induce SLEEP
by Withdrawing the blood from the brain
where it has been concentrated by mental
efforts. In ordinary sleeplessness this light
repast will prove a remedy: if it fails, con-

BALLAD OF The COUNTRY.

Mehitable Jane can erect fence
On most extravagant plan;
In popping Of corn she's very immense,
But she never yet popped Ger a man.
She can puncture drift or guide pillow
Or build up good mince pie;
But when she gets down to ethics, / trow,
She isns so awfuly fly.
She can take away straw from the threshing ma
chine,
Or round up a stack with the best;
She's off on the style of society's queen,
But on dumplings she rakes all the rest.
Two handed she'll milk big dairy of cows,
And strain 1t all through a felt hat;
But she's reticent some ON Baconian rows,
And on Browning, alas she is flat
She can mend all the socks and the trousers in
reach
And do big washing aplomb;
She can wiring hens neck and give never a
screech,
But on swinburne the poor girl is dumb
She can scrub big kitchen and walop the kids
And start them away to the school;
But tackle her on what the last fashion bids
And the subject will show her fool
Lusty limbed, rosy checked is Mehitable Jane,
Built up from the ground on plan
OF grandiloquent size, which, alas giveth pain
To the putty faced little club man
But take her at home. where she reigns as
queen,
And her like over often you'll find;
Where the clover is sweet well, she isn't so
mean
Where the eye of old nature is kind

Night Brain Work Injurious.

To the imaginative young writer there Is
fascination about the quietude of unin-
terrupted night work until much of its
mischief has been done. If he has fixed
daily occupation, or Is popular among his
friends, the night offers the best chance for
continued application by it's quietness and
peace This very cessation of life's tur-
MOL and the resulting feeling of ease
should be accepted as natures preparation
for rest. Unless it is imperative night
work should be avoided. 1t must be inn
perative TO the staff of morning papers,
and the question thus assumes Importance
of accomplishing the work with the least
possible expenditure of vital force.
While by working during the day per
sistently and deliberately an enormous
amount of copy can be thrown off, that
produced after midnight absorbs the best
part of the writer's vitality When he
should be in the prime Of his faculties he is
nervous, suffers from insomnia and his
overtaxed nervous system cannot rest, even
in artificial slumber The natural tempta-
ton is to apply the whip of stimulation to
the faded brain; but this is dangerous, and
at the best only transient and uncertain
remedy. The Imagination answers fitfully
to this kind of forcing; the next days crit
ical Judgment of the results almost certain
ly will be unfavorable, and the mental ex-
element thus induced will probably be eX-
travagant Try to sustain the brain under
such stress rather than to excite it.-Juliet

Fun with a Cork Leg.

1t would not be supposed that any one

Yet / knew a man who had the misfort

rnconscIous Education of Childhood.


From study of the time occupied in
mental acts by children old enough to I'M
dersland what is asked of them the grad
ual development of human faculty can be
traced, MS well rs the unconscious educa-
ton passed through in childhood. Ordi-
nary observation shows that children are
slow in responding to stimulus. Actual
measurements have been taken by having
children press upon a tube as soon as they
heard a sound. The average adult time for
this reaction is II of second. Children
from to years old require over half a
second to do the Same thing. The times,
too, are irregular, from minimum OF one
fifth of second to a maximum of a second
or more, indicating an irregularity in the
power to fix the attention upon so artificial
task.
When the time was measured, the curve
of contraction was also written. This in
the adult is quick, sudden stroke, occu-
plying about "a of o second. In three Of
the children the movement occupied over
half again as much time, and in one child
was rs long as two seconds. This suggested

Have we not noticed within the last few
years change in the demeanor Of 'society''
girls toward the other sex? How shall we
define it? A kind of brusque audacious-
ness in conversation, with a soupcon of
slangy chaff; an affectation of assuming to
know more of what is what than their
mothers and grandmothers were ever per-
mitted or supposed to know. Do they not
often go peiflously near to the border line
which convenience prescribes shall not be
oyersteppeds
We do not mean this last in the sense in
which it is alleged, and truly, that our an
cestresses of the last century thought it no
shame to call a spade a spade, and when
young demoiselles of sensibility and vi
vacity used to sigh over the misfortunes of
Clarissa Harlowe or divert themselves
with the adventures of Tom Jones and
Sophia Western. 1t is something quite
different from that that the present race of
young women affect It is rather total
want of sentiment that prevails. In form
er days the sex were won't to appeal to
men from their softer, gentler weaker
side. Now it is the reverse.
They appear to aim az meeting men on
their own platform, and consorting with
them as like to like-from mans stand
point rather than from a womans. A girl
nowadays will, unabashed, chaff her male
partner, rally him, amuse him, in his own
coin, in his own manner, and in the way he
would her. This is what we understand
as the female mannishness SO noticeable in
the beau monde of today and, we may add,
SO unlovely. 1t seems to be forgotten that
what man desires in woman is contrast,
not caricature of himself -Blackwood's
