Susceptibility to Disease.

Of several persons who have been
equally exposed to chilly weather one
takes fatal cold, while the others are
wholly unaffected. When scarlet fever
or diphtheria enters family it is a rare
thing for all the members to Re attacked.
The great majority escaped la gIippe
during its late prevalence. And the
same is true of epideInics Of every kind
and degree
This difference is mainly due to differ
ence IN personal susceptibility, inherited
or acquired. Disease invades the BODY
at points where its life forces are weak
ened. Such a lowering Of the vital re-
sistance may date back for generations
This is one reason for the astounding
mortality of infants, SO immensely be-
yond that in the young of some Of the
lower animals. Many persons who start
with small power of resistance carry it
through life. Their only hope is con
slant care and freedom from exposure.
But of those who reach adult are the
greater part may be supposed to have
inherited an average measure of physi-
cal soundness. Whence their suscepti-
bility to disease? 1t comes from physi-
cal transgression, either positive or mega
tive.
Sleep, for instance, is a fundamental
condition of high health. Nothing can
make up for deficiency of it. Lack of
food does not begin to equal lack of
sleep in its power to depress vitality, and
so to render the system liable to any
prevailing disease. Still insufficiency OF
food is great depressant, and may ez-
ist where it is least expected, for the
food must be such as to supply the daily
waste of all the tissues-brain, nerve
bone, muscle and fat-besides furnish
ing heat forming fuel Many person
who sits at luxurious table is not hall
fed.-Youth's Companion.

A Telephone in Every Room.

The telephone is put to new use in the great hotel at Tampa, which Mill ioraire Plan has just built to rival those of Millionaire Flager at St. Augustine. Instead of an electric press button every room will have telephone connected with the office, Guests will be able to communicate not only with the office, but with their friends in other rooms at will. The great orchestrion which was one of the marvels of the Paris exposi- tion is to be placed in the large music room of the hotel. It has been arranged that any guest in his room can, by merely telephoning to the office, be connected with the orchestrion and have the music transmitted to him in full volume. In fact, he can put in actual practice one of the most wonderful of Bellamy's con- captions, and every night, if he likes. go to sleep listening to the finest of har-. monies. New York Sun.

 He had left his 5-year-old son alone in the houte, and the boy was lying oii a sofa when he saw strange man enter. He maintained his presence of mind and pretended to be asleep until the man had passed out of the room and gone upstairs Then he jumped up and ran to the church.
 MT. Holmes was in the middle of a prayer when he was startled by the ex- clamations
 Papa, there's strange man in the housel"
 The minister hesitated for moment and then calmly finished the prayer, be- traying no sign of excitement. Mrs Holmes, however, hurried out of the church. followed by three young men of the congregation. They hastened to the house, but the thief evidently saw them coming, for he departed by the back door as they entered the front. The young men gave chase, however, and overlook him, but failed to hold him. He broke away from them after strug- gle and succeeded in making his escape. The party then returned to the prayer meeting and continued the service.
 The thief was interrupted before he had secured anything of value, although he had gone through some of the draw CTS of a bureau that contained many val uable articles. Tribune.

AYRSHIRE.

The COW in the picture gave 5000 pounds of milk in 10t months. One ac- customed to COWS would kntrw at o glance at her immense udder that she would be famous milker. A large, well formed udder and fine hair are the two surest signs of a good milker. Ayrshire butter, however, is rather pale, and needs to be colored.
 The Ayrshire thriyes and is very popu- lar as dairy COW in hilly, moderately cold climate, though there is no reason to suppose she would not do well else. where. She is the "old reliable" in New England and the middle states. Ayr shires are easily kept, are hardy and ex- cellent breeders, producing calves till they are 20 years old.
 Cattle of this breed are of rich dark red color, verging often upon brown and spotted with white. Like All milk breeds the cows have small, narrow faces and muzzles, with thin tails and delicate legs The neck taprs finely, the hair is soft and thick, and the back is remarkably straight. In good milk CT the udder always shows particularly large behind, and the teats arc set well apart. Ayrshire cows are very gentle and docile in disposition.

Diuggists Who Disagree.

A correspondent of St. Petersburg contemporary has published the results of an inquiry he made into druggists charges, and by so doing he has caused fear and trembling among tine apothe- carries of the city, who dread some gov ernment order on the subject. The in- quiring individual presented to fifty nine different apothecaries prescription for 6 solution of borscic acid 1000 grammes in quantity and per cent. in strength. For this he was charged vari- ous prices from thirty kopecks up to a ruble (10c kopecks), and even up to one ruble seventy SIX kopecks. And he made the solution at home for about two or three kopecks. This WAS bad, but worse follows. There was as great variety in strength as in cost, for out of tifty-nine druggists there were eight different ways of reading per cent. In the 1000 grammes of water there was anything from half an ounce to three ounces of boracic acid.--London News.

Because Willie Went Skating.

Parental solicitude is natural and proper, but it has its ridiculous phases.
 It wasn't very long ago since Willie went skating. His mother was filled with apprehension, and spent about half the day standing in the front door to see whether he was coming home stiff and cold on shutter or otherwise. His sis ter waded through the snow to tell his father, and the old gentleman got his feet wet standing on the edge of the pond trying to make his son hear his command to come home. Nobody but Willie had an appetite for the evening meal. His mother now looks after the hired girl little when she can leave her room; his father has such cold in his head that he cannot talk, and his sister has such a cough that she is afraid to leave the house, and when any of them wants any medicine Willie goes out and buys it.--Washington Post.

Eiectri, Snow sweepers.

The companies manufacturing snow blows and sweepers are said to be just now overwhelmed with orders. The value of these appliances in dealing with large quantities of snow has been so thoroughly demonstrated that improve ments on even the latest machines ara being brought out almost daily. A new snow blow for. electric street railways differs in mary respects from the old fashioned cylindrical shaped broom, revolving beneath the body of truck and throwing the snow and dirt in all directions. It consists of an ordinary car truck equipped with two motors, one of which propels the car while the other revolves two sets of shovels. The snow on the rails is picked up by cir cular box, from which the revolving shovels take it up and throw 1t out through spout. This snow blow can be operated equally well by night or by day, and is said not to interfere with the regular traffic upon the streets. New York Telegram,

WHOLESALE SACRIFICE OF RANGE
 CATTLE IN THE WEST.

Some Language Which Is Plain on This
 subject-Not Enough Cows In the tnited
 States to Produce a Steer Cros That Is
 Sufficient for the Demand. 4
 Any person who has had access to the market reports contained in any of the papers published throughout the ccmn- try during the last four years knows that the marketing of cattle has teen something wonderful. They know also that COWS and calves have been forced on the market, and if the result lrls not been reduction something is wrong. Any person who has been conIse.ted with the range business knows that the object was a reduction or sacrifice of cattle, as it was no longer profitable thing to run range cattle at the ruling price, which has dropped lower and lower because of an overcrowde6 market.
 Now if this wholesale sacrifice which has been going on since 'S5 has not re- suited in reduction it is one of the seven wonders. Cattle holdings are not increasing in this country; on the contrary, they have been falling off for years, and at this moment there l., such decrease in numbers as compared with former years that 8 general knowledge of the facts as they exist would stimulate values, for the reason that orcrs 1t be- came generally known just how many cattle there are in the country, the ship ment of she cattle, yearlings, calves and unripe stuff would cease and shortage would at once be seen.
 We have said before that tho trouble with market prices of cattle is oytrmar- keting, and it is going to be apparent very shortly that there are not COWS enough in the United States to produce steer crop sufficient to supply the home demand for beef if we should keep the she stock and yeilrlings off the mar ket for three years Cows are worth double the amount they will bring on the beef markets for usa at home if own CTS could only be convinced ancl hold them off the market till the actual con- dition of the product of the colniry be- comes apparent, for the farm cattle have been as systematically sacrificed as the range cattle, aud the whole matter is go- ing to be forced upon the country with all the horrors of a robbery of heG, from the dinner tabfts of the working classes
 Take ''hunch" and hang on t, any thing in the way of a beef animal till the shortage appears; it won's bs long and is inevitable.
