an exceptional costal type of respiration
from a full-blooded Indian girl. At my
next visit concluded to repeat this observa-
ton, and found that, contrary to my ~instruc-
tions concerning loose clothing, ETC., this
girl at nay first visit had worn three tight
belts around her abdomen. After these
were removed she gave the abdominal type
Of breathing. which is characteristic of
nearly all the Indian girls
To US these facts are invaluable. Itshows
the faulty construction of modern female
dress, which restricts the motion of abdom-
inal respiration. 1t explains why, as ex-
p%erience has taught us, it is a necessity to
restore this abdominal rhythm, by proper
movements, in order to permanently cure
the affections of the lower portion Of the
trunk. II demonstrates eoncIusiyely that
womens dress, to be injurious, needs only
to interfere with the proper motion of respi-
ration, even though it exercises not the
slightest compression.

glance at the clock, whose hands were bur

$50 you might, " assented Aunt Jane,
promptly laying aside her work and going
down cellar. But she stayed a long time,
and when she r~e-appeared she brought
nothing to eat, bat explained that she had
grown interested in examining the pota-
toes and counting the fruit jars. 1t seemed
a funny excuse for a grown woman to give,
but that vas actually what she said; and
hungry Teddie could only snatch an APP
pie and hurry TO school.
So it went. He wished many times that
she would worry" for his loiterings and
forgettings troubled him as they never had
done before. There seemed always to be
something OF importance depending on his
Notwithstanding that, if neglected,

his plans and pleasures in the most unex-
peeted way. He sometimes had a faint
suspicion that there might be a method in
the unrnff1ed serenity with which Aunt
Jane allowed him toremember or forget as
he pleased, and y 18th which she OCCASION
ally seemed to forget herself. He had
somewhere read of a great inventor or
naturalist who was, even as a boy, so fond
of bis fayorite pursuit as to be rather alb
tiers. Teddie did not consider the case
very much like his own, bur he thought it
might be well for Aunt lane to understand
that such boys sometimes became great
men; so one evening be said, Aunt Jane,
when a boy is always forgetting, and is
well sort of careless about things he ought
to do-what kind of a man do you think
he'll maker"
NV ell, don't see how he can make
much of a man, answered Aunt Jane,
slowly. 'You see, Teddie, if he is always
forgetting and breaking his promises and
engagements, he cannot be an honorable
or reliable man; if he does not give faith
fal care and thought to the trusts placed
10 his hands be cannot be an honest man;
and il be is SO careless as to bring loss and
suffering to others by negleetiug THAR in
~terests, he is not a kind man. One who is
neither kind, honorable, nor honest, can
not be a Christian. | do not see how he
can be good for much in this world or any

After that it hardly seemed worth while
to mention the great naturalist, and Ted
die gazed soberly into the fire. Partly be-
cause of that talk, perhaps, and partly be-
cause Of the Inconvenience he was con-
stantly encountering. he began to insist
that his memory should DO its duty; and
it was surprising how good it was, and
how much like other peoples, after all.
1t certainly surprised his mother upon
her return, and she wrote a grateful letter
to Aunt Jane, asking how she had con-
trived to do SO much for Teddie. But
Aunt Jane said very little about it in her
reply-only a sentence to the effect that
she was a believer in homeopathy for
children; Like cures like. '''-Sabbath

Some stranger would be there instead,
And they Wouid find no welcome face.

In other homes; but this L know
Could my departed come to me,
That she would never ind il 50.
Oftimes the flowers nave come and gone.
Oftimes the winter winds have down
The while her peaceful rest went on,
And | have learned TO live alone.
Have slowly learned from day to day
In all life's tasks to bear my part;
But whether grave or whether gay,
hide her memoir in my heart.
Fond, faithful love has best my way,
And riends are round me true and tried,
They have their plaee,-but hers to-day
Is empty as the day she died.
To bring her back2-the biissful dream
1t fills my heart with wild unrest;
Where yonder cold white marbles CLEAN,
She still must siumber: God knows best.
But this l know, that those who say

Have never hungered every day

LIKE A LETTER FROM HOME.

1t would do the hearts of country editors
good TO ride up town on the elevated Gals
in the afternoon of Friday and Saturday
on n week of the year. On these two
days a great many business men give only
a hasty glance at the evening papers and
then Immediately draw from a pocket a
copy ola paper that is in marked contrast
to the city paper, so far as type and general
appearance goes. The type is invariably
larger and the display of advertisements and
headings to news articles commonly coarser.
The ink is not always spread evenly over
the page. Nevertheless, the business man
opens the paper to the page devoted 10
village news and reads every line thu re.
After that he not i~nfrequently reads the
village advertisements and gives a brief
look at the editorials Tue city man
used to live in the village where that
paper was printed, and he recognizes the
names of people there as old acquaintsnces,
and commonly old friends. The village
paper comes like a letter from home to the
city man who was once a viilager.-Nen

DRESS IN RELATION TO HEALTH

It has always been a ~stereotyped state
ment of psychologists that the respiration
| of women differs from that OF man in being
limited limos entirely 10 the chest. On
the other hand, We have the apparently
contradictory TACT that abdominal or deep
respiration is the most potent of all factors
for returning the blood through the veins to
to the heart. Ii is, therefore, a necessity for
the prevention of blood stagnstion in the
lower portion of the trunk.
We have, at last, some Investigations
which promise to solve the interesting prob
lem. These Investigations tend to show
tion is a result of the restrictions of civiliza-
ton, and is hence unnatural. Ia order to
investigate this subject scientifically, DR..
Mays, of Philadelphia, devised an ingenious
instrument for examining the respiration of
the native Indian girls in the Lincoln insti-
tuition. TIL girls had not yet been sub
| jected to the restrictions of eiy~ilizeddress.
The results of his Investigations will be
1tuEa EctOibcQ III Tue 4 ttitpcHtft tfScttc VI
May 16, 1887. He says:
''In all, | examined the movements of
eighty-two chests; and in each case took an
abdominal and a costal tracing. The girls
were partly pure and partly mixed with
white blood, and their ages RANGED from
between ten aud twenty years. Thus there
were thirty-three fall-blooded Indians, FIVE
~one-fourth. thirty. five one-half, and two
were three-fourtbs white. Seventy-five
showed a decided abdominal type of breath
ing, three a costal type, and three ia which
both were about even. Those who showed
the coastal type, or a divergence from the
abdominal type, come from the more civil
lied tribes, like the Mohawks and Chippe
was, aud were either oGe-half or three
fourths white; while in no single instance
did a full-hlooded Indian girl possess this
type of breathing.
"From these observations it obviously
follows that 50 far as the Indian IS concern
ed, the abdominal is the original type OF
respiration in both male and female, and
that the costal type in the civilized female
is developedthrengh the constructing inia-
| ence o fdress around the abdomen. This is
markedly shown in the greater prominence
Of the costal movements in those girls who
were either one-half or three -feurths white,
and who were hence dominated to a greater
| or less extent By the influence of civilized
blood. While these traeings We're taken an
incident occurred which demonstrated that
abdominal construction could modify the
movement ofthe thorax during respiration.

HIS MAJESTY

Men don't believe in a devil now, as their
fathers used to do;
They've forced the door of the broadcast creed
toilet his majesty through;
There ISN'T a print of his cloven foot, or at
fiery dart from his bow,
To be found in earth or air to-day, for the
world has voted so.
But who is mixing the fatal draught that pal
sizes heart and brain,
And loads the earth of each passing year with
ten hundred thousand slains
Who blights the bloom of the land to-day with
the fiery breath of hell,
1fthe devil isn't and never wlss Won't some
body rise and tells
Who dogs the steps of the toiling saint. and
digs the pits for hiSfeetr
Who sows the tares in the Held of time wher.
ever God sows his wheat?
The deyil is voted not to be, and of course the
thing is true;
But who is doing the kind of work the devil
alone should do?
We are told he does not go about as a roaring
lion now;
But whom shall we hold responsible for the
everlasting row
To be heard i'll home, in church, in State, te
earth's remotest bound,
lfthe devil, by Il unanimous vote, is nowhere
to be found?
Won't somebody step to the front forthwit
and make his bow and show
How the frauds and the crimes of the day
spring up?-for surely we want to know
The devil was fairly voted out, and, of course,
the devil is gone;
But simple people would like to know who
carries his business on.

RUNNINGA NEWSPAPER.

By some ~unaccountable misapprehen-
sion of facts, there are a large class of peo-
pie in the world who think that it costs
little or nothing to run a newspaper, and
if they buy a copy from the boy when too
far away from the Office to come and beg
one, they are regular patrons and entitled
to unlimited favors. Men call every day
at newspaper offices to get a copy of the
paper, Just from the press, for nothing,
who would never dream of begging a
pocket handkerchief from a dry goods
store, OF a piece of candy from a confec-
toner, even upon the plea of old acquain-
lance, having bought something once be-
fore.
One paper is not much, but a hundred a
day amounts to something in the course
Of time. But this is a small drain COM
pared with the free advertising a news
paper is expected to do. Some men who
have paid two dollars at an early period
| of life for an advertisement worth four or
five appear to think they are stockholders
in the establishment for eternity. They
demand the publication of all marriage
and funeral notices, obituaries and family
episodes for the next forty years, gratis.
Speak of paythey grow indignant. Don't
I p~atronize your papers' yes; but you
receive the worth of your money for what
you pay But says the patron, it will
not cost you anything to pat this ill.,
which is just as ridiculous as to ask a man
to grind your axe on his grindstone, and
| g%raciously tell him il won't cost him a
cent.
1t takes money to run a newspaper as
we'll as any other business no paper will
head system. Any mention of the peo-
pies affairs that they are anxious to see in
print is worth paying for, and when print
cd is generally worth as much as any other
investment of the same amount. The
newspaper business is very exacting on
all connected with it, and the pay is COM
paratively small; the proprietors risk more
money for smaller profits. and the editors
and reporters and printers work harder
and cheaper than the same number of men
in any other profession requiring the given
amount of given intelligence, training and
drudgery.
The life has its charms and pleasant
associations scarcely known to the outside
world; 4 but it has its earnest work and
anxieties and hours of exhaustion, which
are not known to those who think the
business all fun. The idea that newspaper
dom is a charmed circle, where the favor
ed members live q life of ease and free
from care, and go to the Springs on a free
pass in the summer, Is an idea which We
desire to explode practically and theoret-
ieally. Business is business and the jour-
nal that succeeds is the one hat is run on
a square business footing, the same as
banking or building bridges, keeping a
hotel or running a livery stable.
