CAUSES OF Badness.
Physical:. Conditions Which Retard

Physical. Conditions Which Retard or,
Stimulate, Growth of the Hair.
Dyspepsia is one of the most common
causes Of badness. Nature is a great
economizer, and when the nutrient ele-
ments furnished by the blood are insult
ficients to properly support the whole
body, she cuts off. the supply to- parts
tho least vital, like. the hair and nails,
that the heart. lungs and other vital
organs may be the better nourish led sin
cases of severe fevers this economy is
particularly noticeable: A single hair.
is sort of history OF the physical con-
dition of an individual during the time
it has been. growing, if one could. read
closely enough Take hair from the
beard or from the head and scrutinize
it, and you will see. that it shows some
attenuated places, Indicating that at
that period of its growth the blood sup
ply was deficient from over-work,s or
anxiety, or understanding. 81
The hair falls out when the strength
of its roots is insu f1cient to sustain its
weight any longer and new hair will
take its place unless the root is dis
eased. For this reason, each person has
certain definite length of hair. When
the hair begins to slit or fall out, mas
sage to the scalpis excellent. Place the
tipof the fingers upon the scalp and
then vibrate or move the scalp while
holding the pressure steadily. This
will stimulate the blood vessels under
meath and bring about better nourish-
ment of the hair. A brush of unevenly
tufted bristles is also excellent to use
upon the scalp, not the hair.-From

STUDY OF ENGLISH.
How to Extend the Acquaintance of st
dents with Standard Literature.

How to Extend the Acquaintance of Stu
dents with Standard Literature.
Critical study of English is still mos
infrequent in our preparatory schools.
1t is not always the fault of the crowded
curriculuma Too often the teacher has
little comprehension of the inspira ton
| and beauty OF language. Literature is
still to many girls and boys dry sub
ject to be got through in prescribed
number of hours. Reading and writing
are the last enemies to be overcome, OF
to be lodged as one may, instead of the
best and simplest friends one can have,
to be grappled to the soul with hoops of
custom and continuing habit. The work
of preparation in English at the Cam
bridge school, where girls are fitted for
Harvard studies is complete and inter
esting, full of suggestion for students
and for teachers of literature The
object has been to create an appre-
citation of English writings as an ex-
preston of life, rather than as an
illustration of literary forms. Each
literary work as it has been taken up
has been prefaced by careful study of
/ the life and contemporaries of it's author.
Editions without notes, except in the
I case of Chauoer and Shakespeare, have
been used, in order to give the pupils
the pleasure and the profit of discover
| ing for themselves the beauties and
{ other traits of the writer's works, and
/ of exercising their own Judgment in
| respect to them. The exercises in the
I class room have consisted in the ex.
I preston of individual thought regard
ing the reading done by the pupils in
/ private.
/ a means OF extending the acquaintance
/ of the pupils with literature. Their At
I tention has been directed to the life and
literary personality of the authors.
The attempt has not been made to pro.
duce readers but the aim has rather
been to cultivate the old-fashioned
art of reading aloud. It is al.
most a forgotten art in the mul.
tiplicity of schools of reading. BY
there are more boys. and girls; now
than formerly who can write a good,
Straightforward letter or short and
simple description of some thing seen.
But there are few who read aloud with
intelligence and with charm. The
teaching of English in the Cambridge
school for girls is of high quality, it is
in line with the most advanced thought
I at Harvard concerning the teaching of
| English as a source of high culture and
fine discipline. There is no danger thai
in the neutrality-suspicious. for boys OF
for girls the teaching of English will be
overdone. Willis it is pleasure t
know: shat a student has fine attain.
mei1ts in mathematics or the classics,
there Is immediate satisfaction in the
| culture OLA young person who can read
1nderstandingly our own poets, and his
:. torians and novelists and essayists, and
| write out suitable expression of the
enjoyment and its sources in good
| pleasant English sentences. Boston

A PESSlMsSTIC REVERY.

I'D like to take Journey hence
To other worlds, for here in fact,
Nature seems short of common sense
And painfully devoid Of tact.
Her loves and griefs, her joys and pains
Mix up In such n reckless way
That which the losses are, or gains,
No reasoning mind can clearly say.
The things she does and leaves undone,
Her curious use Of good and bad,
Would really be no end of fun
Only it happens to be sad.
The pains and evils she contrivcs
Appear to make her feel elate;
And then, her spite at human lives
Is something strange to contemplate.
That gravitation's hideous laws
Should earth's fair atmosphere disgrace,
And yet the earth be safe because
Ills poised aloft in airy space;
That half our life is given to sleep;
That not to eat is certain death,
And that alive we can not keep
Without the constant aid OF breath:
Why, these facts, so outrageous seem
That when ponder them I shake
Myself and say: This is q dream;
surely can not be awaken gzr. -
Alas | am. My grief is this,
THAT I'm too wide-awalSe by far,
And hence my yearning project is
To seek some other sphere or star,
Eit then, on second thought, perhap -
I'd better stay and calmly wait,
Because when years enough elapse,
III have to go OF any rate.

will increase the amount OF crop to the
full extent of paying for material and
erection of trellis, willis the better
quality of the fruit resulting from such
treatment will be clear gain. The
trellis consists simply of row Of
stakes at reasonable distance apart on
each side of the row of plants, and
strands of wire strung along the posts,
at say, eight inches apart from each
other. A more detailed description
was. furnished us by Mr.. Stahl, but our
printers, unfortunately, have lost or
mislaid the manuscript.
. One of the State experiment stations
reports satisfactory results from the
use of a trellis put up like the one de-

WHERE SHE COMES.

With ecavy elders overhung,
Half hid in clover masses.
An old fence rambles on, among
The tangled meadow grasses.
1t makes shade for lady-fern
Which nestles close beside it;
While clematis, at every turn,
And roses almost hide it,
In shade OF overhanging sprays
And down sunny hollow,
BY hazel-copse and woodland ways,
The winding fence follow;
BY rose and thorn, and fragrant dew,
In search Of something sweetoc-
The orchard. gap where she comes through
And 60 down to meet her.
The sunlight slants across the fence,
Where lichens gray it over,
And stirs hundred dreamy scents
From fern, and mint, and clover;
But though the air is sweet to-day,
know OF something sweeter:
That she can only come this way,
And am sure to meet herl
And so, while chipmunks run a matnt
To tell the wrens who's coming,
And all across the brier patch
There sounds drowsy humming-
The hum of honey seeking bees
seek for something sweeter:
A gap, amongst the apple-trees,
Where am going to meet herl

HINTS ON MENDING.

If Girls Are Taught the Art They viii
Save Many Penny A:terward.
While.I do not. approve of putting
girls down to a stint of sewing when
they ought to be outdoors, at the same
time If they are taught the art, for it is
an art, OF mending when young, it will
save many penny when they are wom-
en-. and mending must be learned in
childhood or never known. Thousands
Of neat sewers can not darn stockings.
and the neatest plain sewer I know can
not make buttothole. The other
sewing she was taught in esrly days
when fine needlework was an accom-
piishment, for which. we need not now
try OUR eyes, as the machine does this
and more.

ragged edges of the rent over piece Of
stiff paper. Then make a network of
stitches back and forth, running the
needle fully an inch beyond the tare
into the linen. If an expert III en-.
broidery, the pattern of the cloth or
napkin might be darned in. This
makes neater finish than to patch tho
hole with piece of the same, though
this may be neatly done by matching
the pattern and darning over the ra W
edges of the larger part, which is laid
over the scrap and basted smoothly.
The moment a break is discov-
cred in table linen, mend it,
as this is a certain case of
"a stitch in time saves nine" BY
the bye, all table linen must be hemmed
by hand, turning the hens as narrow
as possible. Towels are mended with
flax or linen embroidery cotton as we'll,
using number to agree with the quail
ty of the towel and running the stitches
each way, as usual. In darning use a
long, fine needle and make the first row
of threads as close as possible. The
second row is simply over and under
one thread, with the second line alter
mating, under one, over one.
''As though we did not know how to
darnl" Of course, you know the theory,
