xvtv cats non,t ~Cset rat.

Have you ever inquired how it is that cats can combine with their proverbial idleness such great agility? Muscular in- action leads just as much iR other kinds of animals as in the human species to obesity; the dog which does not hunt, the horse kept in the stable becomes fat and sluggish Wild animals even, if keptin cage, where they are forced into the repose Of domestic life, very rapidly lose their slenderness of figure ard their ease of movement.
 Why does the cat escape the ordinary law, and why, in spite of the fact that 1t rarely moves, does it seldom become fat as does dog or horse under similar circum- stancesY 1t is because its immobility is not that of inaction, and its nerves are working while its muscles seem at rest. Like the fencer waiting the moment to at tack, the cat is constantly ready to spring. It is always watching something; rat, a fly, or joint of meat.
 \ drawing room cat oniy makes three or four springs in the course of a day, but each of them has been preceded by two or three hours of latent wortl. When we be- lieve that the animal is engaged in a happy dream it is meditating n capture, calculatinC the distance of its spring and holding its muscles in readiness for any thing that may happen. Fence 1t is never taken by surprise. If a little bird escapes from it's cage it is caught and eaten in three seconds. The cat has been watching it for a week. When it seemed asleep it was lying in wait.-La; ;,range's Physiology.

Cater tO Your Boy.

We mean your boy-the little fellow you left st home this morning when you start cd for the store or office. Don't forget he has wants as real and tangible to him as yours are to you, Remember he is no more a born saint than you were. And if you inst reflect a little you will be ashamed to think how far from it you were. Don't forget him as soon as his ''good-by, papa" " fades away behind you. Didn't he ask you for something-a iackknife, or q hammer, or a new slate, or some pencils, or some thing or other? If you love your boy and wish to show him that you do you might better forget business appointment down town than forget his request.
 If he asks you for something your better judgment says he should not have don't be content with simply ignoring the boys wish, hut take the time and trouble to ex- plain your reasons. Boys, even pretty young ones, are quicker than you may think to see a point. Always give a reason for refusal of his request even if it is the one you too often give-that you can't af- ford it. And he careful how you give that reason.
 If he has lost or broken his jackknife and asks you for new one don't scold him. Albeit you may give him little lesson in carefulness, but don't tell him you can't afford to give him ten cents for a new one, and then before you leave the house pull out your cigar case and light a ten cent cigar.
 The boy will be drawing invidious dis functions before you know it.-Business ChrOniple

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1890-09-11

THE present membership of the Con- necticut house of representatives, 251, will be only slightly changed by the new census. The fifteenth amendment to the state constitution provides that any town shown by United States census to have reached 5000 population, shall be entitled to two representatives. None of the S6 towns having single repre- sentative have passed the 5000 mark, with the single exception of Naugatuck, which, if the approximate figures pub- lished are correct, has advanced from 4,274 to 6,219, or as other returns put it, 6,35S. The tows already having two representatives, which have passed the 5000 mark in the last ten years, are Wallingford 4,6S6 to 6,502, and Torring- ton 3,327 to 6,056. Four other towns passed the 1000 mark, and their per centage of increase warrants the Guppo. sition that they will reach or exceed 5000 by the time of the next census. East Hartford has 4,240, a gain of TAO Stafford 4,626, a gain of Fl ; Branford, 4,470, gain of 1,433, and Plainfield 4,579, gain of 559. All of these have two representatives now, excepting the town which shows the largest percent age of gain of the four, Branford. It might be added that New Haven with 90,000 inhabitants will have the same number of representatives as Naugatuck in the next legislature.

Queer Cases That Have Come Under the
 Observation of Specialists.

Queer Cases That Have Come Under the
 Observation of Specialists.
 A lady who lived in fashionable sub urb of London confined her attention strictly to keys, which she used to bury in her garden. No door or cupboard in her house was fitted with a key, and when she went out shopping she would always endeavor to edge near the door and abstract the key. She was not at- tracted in the least by keys unless they were in use. Her relatives used to buy up old Keys, and leave them about the house, in the hope that she would sati- ate her passion for this curious form of the collecting mania, but they were quite unheeded. A key might lie on the drawing-room table for months without her evincing the slightest desire to bury 1t, but if it were brought into use, it was sure to be lying beneath foot of mold before many hours were over. In the same way, a well-known doctor dis played an uncomfortable penchant for towels. He would as often as possible make an excuse for requiring 8 towel in the course of his professional duties, and would usually stuff it into the capacious tail pocket of his coat if he thought that he was unobserved Curi- OuSly enOuBuS IulS man was QuAUo Au authority upon the question of klepto- mania, and used to deliver most learned discourses on the subject Perhaps the most remarkable case of kleptomania was that of @ man who refused to eat | any food unless he had stolen 1t This | queer idea of his several times caused him to endure such protracted lasts that he was with difficulty brought round by | the forcible administration of nourish- ment. His servants were obliged to | continually watch him, with a view to keeping themselves informed regarding \ the amount of food that he ate. Finally, they hit upon a method of making him relieve them of their anxiety. They \ concealed fooa of various descriptions, with the result that their master used to hunt about for 1t, and had no difl- culty in finding sufficient to keep him in good condition. .-Cassell's Saturday | Journal.
